Famous Love: Kagome's Songs For Koga
Previously:
"Don't you think they can ever get enough?" She asked as she looked over his shoulder at the swerm of paparazzi's chasing after them.
"They just want some stories so they can get money." He growled. "Can't give us some damn privacy. Hold on tight. I'm gonna jump." She nodded as she wrapped her arms around his neck tight and closed her eyes as he jumped.
She opened her eyes and saw that he was standing on top of a big truck. She looked up and saw a bridge. He must've jumped from that bridge. She looked at him. "What would've happened if this truck wasn't there?"
He shrugged. "I'd jump on one. Keep holding on." He said as he jumped from truck to truck until they got to his house. He put her down and they went inside his house.
Now:
As soon as she walked in the house with Inuyasha. He was attacked by someone and ended up falling. She looked down and saw Inuyasha on the floor with his mother on top of him hugging him and kissing him. Kagome put her hand over her mouth to keep in her giggles.
Inuyasha groaned as he tried to get his mother off of him. "Mom, get off." He turned red when his ears picked up some of Kagome's giggles. "Mom.."
Izayoi got off him and crossed her arms acting like a little kid. "I was just worried about my son. I saw the news and I got worried." She then notices Kagome and smiles at her. "Why hello Kagome. How are you?"
Kagome just nodded, afraid that if she opens her mouth giggles will come out instead of words. Izayoi smiled at her one more time before running into the kitchen.
Inuyasha looked at Kagome. "I know you're dying to laugh so just-"
Kagome bursted out with giggles. She was laughing so hard that she fell to the ground and tears started falling. Inuyasha sighed and rubbed his temples in frustration and embarassment.
She was in the ground laughing hysterically for about 5 more minutes before she finally calmed down. She sat up. "Ok, I'm done."
"About time."
"I'm sorry," She started as she got up from the ground. "It's just that was so funny."
"More like embarrassed."
"Aww, wittle Inuyasha was embwawassed." She said in a baby voice as she pinched his cheeks.
He blushed in embarrasment and shoved her hands away. "Stop it!"
She laughed again.
Izayoi walked out of the kitchen and sat down on the couch. "Kagome, you have a concert coming up, don't you?"
She nodded. "Yeah. It's tomorrow night, actually." She said.
Izayoi smiled at her. "Mind if we come?"
She shook her head. "Not at all."
A girl walked downstairs and stopped as soon as she saw Kagome. She screamed, making everyone cover their ears. Inuyasha looked to the person who screamed and groaned.
"Oh my gosh! It's Kagome Higurashi!" The girl ran over to Kagome.
"Hi?"
The girl screamed again and turned to Inuyasha. "She just said hi.. to me!"
Kagome looked at Inuyasha weird.
"She's a huge fan of yours." He whispered in her ear.
She nodded understanding.
Izayoi smiled at the girl. "Esther..I have good news for you." (If you watch 'A NotSoSimple Job' you would know who Esther is)
The girl, Esther, turned to Izayoi.
"We are all invited to go to Kagome's concert tomorrow night."
She screamed again making Inuyasha growl.
"Would ya stop screaming!" He yelled. "I got sensitive ears ya know!"
Esther ignored him. "Where are our tickets?" She asked.
Kagome looked through her purse for extra tickets and found them. "Ah, you're lucky. I have like 8 extra tickets. How many of you guys are coming?"
"Me of course!" Esther exclaimed. Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"You coming?"
Inuyasha shrugged. "I guess."
She rolled her eyes and took out 3 tickets. "One for you," she handed a ticket to Esther, "One for you," she handed the second ticket to Inuyasha, "And one for you." she handed the third ticket to Izayoi. "I gotta go. So see ya tomorrow night, guys." She said as she left the house.
Esther screamed as soon as she left and Inuyasha yelled at her.
~The Next Day, Afternoon~
Inuyasha parked in front of Koga's house. "Why are we here again?"
"You're not going in. I am. Just wait here."
Kagome got out of the car and knocked on the door and sure enough, Koga opened the door with Ayame by his side.
"What are you doing here?"
"Just to give you these." She said pulling out 2 tickets to her concert tonight and handed them Koga.
"Why?" he asked eyeing the 2 tickets.
"Oh, I just heard that Ayame was a fan of mines."
"Where did you hear that?" she asked.
"A little birdie. Well I guess I'll see you tonight, right?"
"Good. Bye!" She said not letting them speak and ran to Inuyasha's car and he sped off.
"Why'd you give him those anyways?"
She didn't answer.
~Before the concert, Backstage~
"WHAT! WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN'T MAKE IT!" Kagome yelled into her cell.
"I'm sorry Kagome. I can't. You're just gonna have to find someone else."
"Alright. I'll try. Bye." She hung up the phone.
"What's wrong?"
She turned around to find Sango. "Banks can't make it. Family emergency. Now who would I find who can play the guitar?"
Inuyasha walked in with Miroku. "Hey guys. We just came in to wish you guys luck."
"Miroku! You can play guitar right?" Sango asked.
"Yes. Why?"
"Can you learn about a whole bunch of songs in less than 10 minutes?"
He shook his head. "I can't memorize notes that fast Sango. Inuyasha can, though."
"You can play guitar right?"
Inuyasha nodded. "Ye-"
"YAY!" Kagome cut him off and handed him a whole bunch of papers. "Learn the notes to all of these songs."
"But-"
"Pwease? Pwetty pwetty pwease?" She asked in a baby voice and putting in her best puppy eyes.
How could he say no to that? He sighed. "Alright."
She smiled.
"Thank you, Inuyasha."
~Concert Time~
Kagome walked on stage and as soon as she did, the crowd roared and yelled her named. She looked in the crowd and saw Izayoi and Esther and smiled at them and they smiled back. The rest of her band and Inuyasha walked on stage and everyone gasped, surprised to see him on stage with her. She stood in front of the microphone and took the mic out and searched the crowd for Koga and Ayame. She sighed. Honestly she didn't even know why she invited them in the first place.
She saw Inuyasha pull up two stools, one for him and one for her because the first and second song were gonna be acoustic with some of her band playing. She sat down as he sat down on one. He started to play and soon after she sang.
Say you're sorry
That face of an angel comes out
Just when you need it to
As I pace back and forth all this time
Cause I honestly believed in you
Holding on
The days drag onn
Stupid girl, I should've known
I should've known
That I'm not a princess
This ain't a fairytale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before you
And it let me down
But it's too late for you and your white horse
To come around
Inuyasha was staring at Kagome and wanted to hug her as soon as he heard the emotion in her voice as she sang. Damn Koga, hurting her like that. He looked in the crowd and saw Koga and Ayame and contained his urge to growl and continued to play.
Maybe I was naive
Got lost in your eyes
And never really had a chance
My mistake
I didn't know to be in love
You had to fight to have the upper hand
I had so many dreams about you and me
Happy endings
Now I know
That I'm not a princess
This ain't a fairytale
I'm not the one you'll sweep off her feet
Lead her up the stairwell
This ain't Hollywood
This is a small town
I was a dreamer before you
And it let me down
Now it's too late for you and your white horse
To come around
And there you are on your knees
Begging for forgiveness
Begging for me
Just like I always wanted
But I'm so sorry
Kagome let a few tears fall as she sang. What was the point in trying to hide it? By tomorrow, all of her songs will be on the news and everyone will know who it was about.
Cause I'm not your princess
This ain't a fairytale
I'm gonna find someone someday
Who might actually treat me well
This is a big world
That was a small town
There in my rearview mirror, disappearing now
And it's too late for you and your white horse
Now it's too late for you and your white horse
To catch me now
Oh, whoa, whoa, whoa
Try and catch me now
Oh, it's too late
To catch me now
Kagome mentally sighed as the song finished. She risked a glance at the crowd and she'd be sure they knew. Inuyasha started playing and she started singing.
The city is sleeping
But I'm still awake
I'm dreaming, I'm thinking
What happened today, is it right?
I fold into the night
The flashbacks, the pictures
The letters and songs
The memories, the heart that you carved on the wall
It's a shame
Now that nothing's the same
Now the bridges are burned
And we're lost in the past
It's time that we sink or swim
What about you
What about me
What about fairytale endings
Were you just pretending to be
I'm wondering
What if we tried
What if I cried
What if it's better tomorrow
What if I followed your eyes
I'm wondering
What about me
Koga and Ayame were just staring at her. "Is this the real reason she actually invited us? So you can hear this?" Ayame asked but Koga just stared.
You said it, you meant it
You hung up the phone
The talking in circles, it set in stone
You were gone
We were wrong all along
Now the past is the past
And the bruises may fade
But these scars are here to stay
What about you
What about me
What about fairytale endings
Were you just pretending to be
I'm wondering
What if we tried
What if I cried
What if it's better tomorrow
What if I followed your eyes
I'm wondering
What about me
Stay away
You'll fade away
I'm not afraid anymore
Inuyasha kept playing. He wanted this song to end. So he couldn't hear the despair in her voice, and plus his ass was hurting. The stools were not comfortable.
What about you
What about me
What about fairytale endings
Were you just pretending to be
I'm wondering
What if we tried
What if I cried
What if it's better tomorrow
What if I followed your eyes
I'm wondering
What about me
The city is sleeping
But I'm still awake
I'm dreaming, I'm thinking
What happened today, is it right?
Inuyasha and Kagome got up. Inuyasha put the stools away and acoustic guitar and put on his electric guitar and Kagome walked over to mic stand and put the mic back on it and her band and Inuyasha started to play the next song.
Here's the thing we started out friends
It was cool but it was all pretend
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone
You dedicated
You took the time
It wasn't long 'til I called you mine
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone
And all you'd ever hear me say
Is how I picture me with you
That's all you'd ever hear me say
But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get what I want
Since you've been gone
Kagome took the mic out and started walking around the stage.
How can I put it
You put me on
I even feel for that stupid love song
Yeah, yeah
Since you've been gone
And how come I never hear you say
I just wanna be with you
I guess you never felt that way
But since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get what I want
Since you've been gone
Kagome walked up to Inuyasha and started shaking her head and Inuyasha came to face her as he was playing.
You had your chance
You blew it
Out of sight
Out of mind
Shut your mouth
I just can't take it
Again and again and again and AGAIN!
She started to walk around the stage again.
Since you've been gone
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get, I get what I want!
I can breathe for the first time
I'm so moving on, yeah yeah
Thanks to you
Now I get
You should know
That I get, I get what I want
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
Since you've been gone
She brushed some hair out of her face and went to where the drum set was and drank some of her water that was in her water bottle. She nodded as she finished and they started playing. Her singing following.
You told me
There's no need to talk it out
Cause it's too late to proceed
And slowly
I took your words and walked away
No looking back
I won't regret, no
I will find my way
I'm broken
But still I have to say
It's alright, ok
I'm so much better without you
I won't be sorry
Alright, ok
So don't you bother what I do
No matter what you say
I won't return
Our bridge has burned down
I'm stronger now
Alright, ok
I'm so much better without you
I won't be sorry
Kagome walked next to Inuyasha as she sang and Inuyasha secretly smiled to himself.
You played me
Betrayed me
Your love was nothing but a game
Portrayed a role
You took control
I, I couldn't help but fall
So deep
But now I see things clear
It's alright, ok
I'm so much better without you
I won't be sorry
Alright, ok
So don't you bother what I do
No matter what you say
I won't return
Our bridge has burned down
I'm stronger now
Alright, ok
I'm so much better without you
I won't be sorry
Both Inuyasha and Kagome turned around. Kagome layed against Inuyasha as she sang the next part.
Don't waste your fiction tears on me
Just save them for someone in need
It's way too late
I'm closing the door
The both turned back around but Kagome didn't leave his side as she continued to sing.
It's alright, ok
I'm so much better without you
I won't be sorry
Alright, ok
So don't you bother what I do
No matter what you say
I won't return
Our bridge has burned down
I'm stronger now
Alright, ok
I'm so much better without you
I won't be sorry
It's alright, ok
Alright, ok
Without you
No matter what you say
It's alright, ok
Alright, ok
Without you
I won't be sorry
Sango smiled from watching backstage. Kagome and Inuyasha were really having some chemistry on stage. Her plan for bringing them together was working. Of course she knew that Miroku could play guitar and that he can't memorize things that quick. She planned it all, telling Bankotsu to not come and say it's a family emergency. She came out of her thoughts as the next song started to play.
You had me to get her
And here I thought it was me
I was changin, arrangin my life to fit your lies
It's all said and all done
I gave it all for the long run
Can she say the same thing?
I guess this is goodbye and good luck
I can't be what you want me to be
I'm sorry for changing
I'm sorry it had to be this way
Believe me, it's easier just to pretend
But I won't apologize for who I am
Ayame wouldn't admit it but she was Kagome's fan and she did like her songs, even though these songs were about her break up with Koga and her too, she didn't care. For some reason, she actually agrees with her. She shrugged as she continued to listen.
Remember the time when you said you were out with your best friend
But it wasn't the best friend that you knew I thought you meant
And I used to accept it
I didn't know I could be free
But I am, and I won't go back
Cause you so don't deserve me
I don't even wanna be her
I'm sorry for changing
I'm sorry it had to be this way
Believe me, it's easier just to pretend
But I won't apologize for who I am
I thank you for this hopeless war
Cause through the pain I found I'm stronger than before
And now I'm more
I don't need you anymore
I'm sorry
Listen close I won't say this again
I'm sorry for changing
I'm sorry it had to be this way
Believe me it's easier just to pretend
But I won't apologize for who I am
I'm sorry for changing
I'm sorry it isn't like it was
Believe me, it's easier just to pretend
But I won't apologize
Why should I apologize?
No, I won't apologize for who I am
Inuyasha sighed as he took off the electric guitar and went to get the stools and the acoustic guitar. He forgot that she had one more that needed acoustic. They both sat down and he started playing and soon she started singing.
You take a deep breath as you walk through the doors
It's the morning of your very first day
You say hi to your friends you ain't seen in a while
Trying to stay out of everybody's way
It's your freshman year
And you're gonna be here for the next four years in this town
Hopin one of those seniors boys would wink at you and say
"You know I haven't seen you around before"
Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen feeling like there's nothing to figure out
Well, count to ten take it in
This is life before you know who you're gonna be
At fifteen
Kagome smiled as the crowd started waving their hands up in the air.
You sit in class next to a redhead named Abigail
And soon enough you're best friends
Laughing at the other girls who think they're so cool
We'll be out of here as soon as we can
And then you're on your very first date
And he's got a car and you're feeling like flying
And you're momma's waiting up and you're thinking he's the one
And you're dancing around your room when the night ends
When the night ends
Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen and your first kiss makes your head spin around
In your life you'll do things greater than dating the boy on the football team
I didn't know it at fifteen
Inuyasha risked a glance at Kagome and was surprised when he didn't find a tear. There was a lot of emotion she put into the lyrics.
When all you wanted is to be wanted
Wish you could go back
And tell yourself what you know now
Back then I swore I was gonna marry him someday
But I realized some bigger dreams of mine
And Abigail gave everything she had to a boy who changed his mind
We both cried
Cause when you're fifteen and somebody tells you they love you
You're gonna believe them
And when you're fifteen
Don't forget to look before you fall
I've found time can heal most anything
And you just might find who you're supposed to be
I didn't know who I supposed to be
At fifteen
La la la la la
La la la la la
La la la la la
Your very first day
Take a deep breath girl
Take a deep breath as you walk through the doors
Inuyasha mentally cheered when the song was done. He got up and put it away getting his electric guitar. Kagome didn't even bother to put the mic back in the stand as the music played.
You realed me in with your smile
You made me melt with your vvoice
Now I've been gone now for a while
Just to find that I'm your seventh choice
And I don't wanna pay the cost
But it'd be best if you get lost
Cause we know you'll never change
Don't say that you need me
And don't play these games with my mind
You better get out of my head cause your wasting your time
And don't say it's forever
And don't play cause you had your shot
You better stop messing around cause you're gonna get caught
Inuyasha noticed that Kagome hadn't come and stand next to him like she did for the rest of her songs so he decided to walk up to her. She smiled at him as she sang.
You promised me all of your time
I guess I'm not the only one
But see it's my heart on the line, this time
I'm your only one, or I'm gone!
Don't say that you need me
And don't play these games with my mind
You better get out of my head cause your wasting your time
And don't say it's forever
And don't play cause you had your shot
You better stop messing around cause you're gonna get caught
Go and try to get me back
You won't get me back, you won't get me back
I won't forget about our past
I won't forget, NO!
Never had the guts to leave
Now your making it
Now your making it much easier for me to see
Kagome turned to face Inuyasha and smiled as she rest her arm on his shoulder and leaned over as she started to sing again.
And don't say that you're sorry
For breaking every inch of my heart
I should've known from the start now it's time to get lost!
And don't say that you need me
And don't play these games with my mind
You better get out of my head cause your wasting your time
And don't say it's forever
And don't play cause you had your shot
You better stop messing around cause you're gonna get caught
You better stop messing around cause you're gonna get caught
Inuyasha didn't bother to go back. He stood right next to Kagome as the next song started to play.
State to obvious
I didn't get my perfect fantasy
I realized you love yourself
More than you could ever love me
So go and tell your friends
That I'm obsessive and crazy
That's fine
I'll tell mine that you're gay
And by the way
I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck, heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned
You're just another picture to burn
Inuyasha almost bursted out laughing when he heard Kagome say 'I'll tell mine that you're gay'. He's glad that Kagome's getting over Koga by singing these songs.
There's no time for tears
I'm just sitting here planning my revenge
There's nothing stopping me
From going out with all of your best friends
And if you come around saying sorry to me
My daddy's gonna show you how sorry you'll be
Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck, heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned
You're just another picture to burn
And if you're missing me
You better keep it to yourself
Cause coming back around here
Would be bad for your health
Kagome looked at Inuyasha and they both smiled at each other and she started to sing again.
Cause I hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck, heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
In case you haven't heard
I really, really hate that stupid old pickup truck
You never let me drive
You're a redneck, heartbreak
Who's really bad at lying
So watch me strike a match on all my wasted time
As far as I'm concerned
You're just another picture to burn
Burn, burn, burn, baby burn
You're just another picture to burn
Baby burn, yeah
The crowd cheered and Kagome smiled. The concert's almost over. Just 3 more songs. But what she didn't know was that they weren't cheering for her, they were cheering because Kagome and Inuyasha were next to each other.
It's strange to think the songs we used to sing
The smiles, the flowers, everything is gone
Yesterday I found out about you
Even now just looking at you feels wrong
You say you'd take it all back, given one chance
It was a moment of weaknesss and you said, 'Yes'
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice 'fore you let it all go
You should've known that word, 'bout what you did with her
Would get back to me
And I should've been there in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me
Kagome started walking around and so did Inuyasha but they went the opposite ways and they both stopped walking once they got to the end of the stage on both sides.
You can see that I've been crying
Baby you know all the right things to say
But do you honestly expect me to believe
We could ever be the same
You say that the past is the past, you need one chance
It was a moment of weakness and you said, 'Yes'
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice 'fore you let it all go
You should've known that word, 'bout what you did with her
Would get back to me
And I should've been there in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
You should'nt be begging for forgivenss at my feet
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me
Inuyasha and Kagome walked up to each other then walked together in the middle of the stage, it's like an aisle, until they got to the end and the fans were stretching their hands so Kagome could touch it.
I can't resist before you go tell me this
Was it worth it?
Was she worth this?
No, no, no, no, no, no
You should've said no, you should've gone home
You should've thought twice 'fore you let it all go
You should've known that word, 'bout what you did with her
Would get back to me
And I should've been there in the back of your mind
I shouldn't be asking myself why
You shouldn't be begging for forgiveness at my feet
You should've said no, baby and you might still have me
Sango smiled. She loved all of these songs that Kagome sang for Koga. The next song is her favorite.
It's not time to give us one more try
I don't think so
Last night you said your one last lie
I can't let you wreck my plans
I'm planning to let you go
Oh, only one thing is true
Only one thing to do, time to delete you
Burnin up, all your pictures
Tearin up, all your letters
Rippin up, all your sweaters
This is, this for the better
Slashin up, all y our tires
Smashin up, all your flowers
Grabbin back, all my power
Cause one mess says
I don't need you, delete you
Oh, delete you, oh
This was definetly one of Sango's favorite songs. She smiled as she saw the chemistry between Kagome and Inuyasha in the middle of the stage.
It's not time to say how much you care
I don't think so
I don't want you, I want you not there
I'm done, I think that the time's come
To bring this thing to an end
I think this could be goodbye
Think you've run out of time
Time to delete you
Burnin up, all your pictures
Tearin up, all your letters
Rippin up, all your sweaters
This is, this is for the better
Slashin up, all your tires
Smashin up, all your flowers
Grabbin back, all my power
Cause one mess says
I don't need you, delete you
Kagome bent down and touched all of the fans hands and they all screamed as she did.
All I want from is for you to disappear
All I need from you is for you not to be here
I guess it's time you got the news
Gonna replace you, erase you
Delete you, delete you
Oh, delete you
Whoa-oh, delete you
Burnin up, all your pictures
Tearin up, all your letters
Rippin up, all your sweaters
This is, this is for the better
Slashin up, all your tires
Smashin up, all your flowers
Grabbin back, all my power
Cause one mess says
I don't need you, delete you
Oh, delete you
Whoa-oh, delete you
Whoa-oh, delete you
Time to delete you
Oh, delete you
Inuyasha and Kagome walked back to the center stage as they played their last song for tonight.
Everytime I saw you
Trying to pretend
Now, I think you're caught in...
A spin
Said that I could trust
You'd be my everything
Falling from the shadows
Now, I see
All of those times were wasted
When you tried to hide it from me
I don't care what you're sayin
I don't care what you're doing
Never really had me
I'm over it
So why is it so hard to see
All the lies you tell me
I'm getting out, I'm moving on
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
Kagome smiled as the crowd cheered. She picked this song to be the final one so Koga can get the message. She's over it!
Tried to walk away
But my hears was sayin "no"
Can't believe it took so...
Long to go
Now the past is fading
I hardly know your name
Don't know what your doin
Ya lost the game
All of those times were wasted
When you tried to hide it from me
I don't care what you're saying
I don't care what you're doin
Never really had me
I'm over it
So why is it so hard to see
All the lies you tell me
I'm getting out, I'm moving on
I'm over it
I don't care
Never, I'm over it
So why is it?
Getting, I'm over it
I don't care what you're sayin
I don't care what you're doin
Never really had me
I'm over it
So why is it so hard to see
All the lies you tell me
I'm getting out, I'm moving on
I'm over it
I don't care what you're sayin
I don't care what you're doin
Never really had me
I'm over it
So why is it so hard to see
All the lies you tell me
I'm getting out, I'm moving on
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
I'm over it
Kagome smiled as the crowd cheered, roared and screamed her name. She turned to Inuyasha and hugged him. "Thank you."
He smiled. "No problem."
Koga was just staring at them. Those songs...were all to him. She was making him sound like a jerk! And by morning, everyone will see him as "Koga Ookami, the jerk, who broke Kagome Higurashi's heart."
She's ruining his reputation!
Ayame didn't really care. She liked the song, even though they were about her relationship with Koga and their breakup. They all had good meanings, and Koga did kinda deserve it.
Come to think of it, she was pretty mean to Kagome too. She should apologize.
