"I'll Help You Pack"
--------------------------------------------------------------
"Hey..." The hollow voice answered.
Kagome's memory exploded as her lips hesitated to form words. It had been over 3 months since they last spoke. And it wasn't even that big of a deal really. Life went on, Kagome got to hang out with her friends more often and the rumors had died out. It was as if Inuyasha had never even been transferred into their school or in her life. She did see him about 3 weeks ago, but it was only the side of his head getting into a car. And she didn't think that he even noticed her walking by.
"Inuyasha...?" She asked, obviously knowing it was him. But she felt the need to ask anyways.
"What?" He said.
Kagome remembered how rude and impatient he was and suddenly didn't want to talk anymore. Why does he always do this? He's such a asshole. She doesn't know what she ever saw in him in the first place. She wished she had never even met him.
She ran her fingers through her hair." Nothing. It's just been a whi--" "Listen." He interrupted her so anxiously. "I'm moving back to Tokyo tomorrow. It's harder to handle all this business overseas, because most of it is with Japan. So there's no point in staying here any longer."
"..."
"Tell your mother how much I enjoyed her company, she's a very sweet lady."
"..."
"...Kagome?" Kagome felt a sudden blush come over her. It had been so long since he had called out her name...
He had been gone forever, and now he just randomly calls her telling her that he's leaving for good? She couldn't keep doing this. She just didn't have the energy to keep getting all pumped up over Inuyasha. I mean, what does he want me to say? "No Inuyasha, don't leave me again! I love you!"
"Oh...what about school and everything? You were doing so well." She asked pretending to care and be interested.
"The schools a piece of shit. I already know everything. I've been wasting my time from the moment I first transferred here."
For some reason Kagome didn't hear anything he said except "...wasting my time from the moment I first transferred here." This sparked a bit of anger.
"I couldn't agree more!" She sloppily slammed the phone down on its charger. What a jerk! For him to just say that! But he's right in a way, it was a waste of time him coming here. Mostly of hers. She kept rubbing her face with her hands and growling. Then she would scratch and mess up her hair until she was satisfied. These were her usual patterns when she got frustrated. She jumped on her bed and kicked all her pillows onto the floor. "Stupid baka! Baka Baka Baka Baka! I hate you Inuyasha! Just go back to Tokyo! I don't care! I'm sure you and Kykou will be very happy together!" She somehow got her feet all tangled in her sheets and uncontrollable lost balance and fell on the hard floor. As soon as she untangled the blankets the doorbell rang. "Mom!" She screamed sitting back on her destroyed bed. But there was no reply. "Mooomm, door!" The door bell continued to ring. "Oh yeah! She said she was going to take a nap." She rushed downstairs and opened the door, just about after 6 rings.
"Who said you could hang up stupid girl?" Kagome hadn't seen Inuyasha in 'regular' clothes for a while. Well that could a been just because she hadn't seen him in so long too. He wore baggy sweatpants, with a tucked in t-shirt and had nothing on his feet. Kagome almost forgot that he lived right next store.
"Well I thought I'd do both of us a favor and stop the time wasting!" She closed her eyes and crossed her arms. "Just like you said, right? You had been wasting your time since you first came here." She heard some noises from upstairs and realized that she might have been screaming too loud.
"What the fuck are you screaming about? I didn't mean--" He saw Kagome's mom standing at the top of the stairs giving a big yawn.
"Kagome, what's going on? What's with all the noise?" She clamped her hand over her mouth to stop another loud yawn.
Kagome turned around a little embarrassed. "Oh! Mom, I uhh was just having a conversation with..."
"Inuyasha! Where ever have you been? You never seem to stop by anymore and I can barley catch even a glimpse of you at work, with you being in charge of everything now." Her mother seemed to snap right out of sleepy mode, when she saw Inuyasha. What's so great about seeing him? Kagome wanted to say.
"I'm sorry Mrs. Higarashi, but I've been swamped every minute with new deals and sales. I barley have any time to myself anymore." He sounded so much different when he spoke to her mom. Not like when he talked to Kagome and called her stupid and told her to shut up.
"I bet you are! But what's this I hear about you taking the business in Tokyo?" Her mom didn't even care that she had bed hair and sleepy dust in her eyes. Inuyasha was just too much of a honor as a guest at your house.
"Yes I will be moving back to Tokyo to continue the business. It will be a lot easier to sell our products and work with them side by side, rather than overseas. I don't belong here Mrs. Higarashi. I was doing a lot better in Tokyo, than Japan."
"Aw, I'm sorry to hear that. I hope it wasn't too much of waste coming here." Mrs. Higarashi sympathized.
"Oh no Mrs. Higarashi. Although some things did seem useless and unimportant in the beginning," his eyes connected with Kagome's, who was now, heading in the other room, "I don't regret a single thing and wouldn't take back any of the things I've learned and the people I've met..."
It felt like they were the only two people in the room at that moment. Like he was talking directly to her. Kagome's eyes felt hot with tears as his eyes looked into hers. His deep dark eyes. Those beautiful eyes staring into hers.
"Well, I'm glad to hear that. Why don't you come in and have dinner with us one last time before you take off?" She got behind him and closed the door behind him, before he even agreed.
"Well, if it's not too much trouble. I'd hate to barge in on your meal."
"Don't be silly," she said, "It'll take about an hour or two, you can just make yourself at home till then." She walked right past Kagome into the kitchen, leaving the two strangers in the living room alone.
"But uh, mom do you need help with anything?" She asked looking for a reason to preoccupy herself.
"Oh Kagome, don't be so rude. If you help me with dinner, Inuyasha will be sitting in the living room all by himself." She already had her apron on, ready to tackle the meal all by herself. Kagome usally helped her mother cook, except for when she was too busy studying or came down with the flu.
"Why do you watch this crap?" Inuyasha complained.
"Crap? Who calls "Hamtaro Little hamsters Big adventures" crap, except you?" Kagome sat with a pillow inbetween her legs and turning up the volume on her favorite evening show. Last episode, Hamtaro and the gang had met Bijou, the pretty french hamster.All the hamsters like her. She likes Hamtaro, but Hamtaro hasn't shown any sign of his affections back. The Boss is head over heels for Bijou and will do anything for her.
"I don't know anything about television, but I do know enough to know whats the most stupidest show on earth!" He laughed.
"Oh yeah Mr. Judge? Why don't you find us something to watch, since you have such great taste and all?" She threw him the remote.
He caught it and stared down at the buttons. There were so many...what did they all mean?
Now that Kagome thought about it, she never did see a television set anywhere in Inuyasha's house. Is it possible that Inuyasha had never watched tv?
The screen began to flicker on and off, and the volume sky rocketed out the tv. You would think since Inuyasha was a big time boss he would be smart with technology and stuff like that, but he was worse than a small infant. Kagome felt herself chuckle.
"And what is so funny?" Inuyasha asked still holding the remote.
"N...nothing, I just...hahahaha!! You have no idea how to use a remote control do you Inuyasha?"
He blushed. "Why the hell would I even care about learning such a stupid and useless ability anyways? This stuff rots your brain you know." He rolled his eyes at her and continued pressing the gazillion colorful buttons.
"What! Are you saying that my brains rotten?"
"Well, that could be the reason why you scored so poorly on midterms."
"...you jerk!!" She grabbed his hair and swung him around like a cowgirl.
"LET GO OF MY HAIR BEFORE I KILL YOU!!" He screeched.
"Take it back! My brain is NOT rotten!" She pulled harder.
"AAAAAAHHH!!!"
Kagome's mom poured some tea in the cups and smiled. "Oh, it's so nice to see Kagome happy again."
"Wow mom that was delicious!" Kagome said patting her belly.
"I agree Mrs.Higarashi, that was the best meal I have had in a long time."
"Oh you two!" She blushed. "I just threw in a bunch of veggies, rice and fish together, it was nothing."
"Well what ever technique you use, it made a very delicious meal indeed." Inuyasha patting his mouth with a napkin.
"You are most kind. So, when will you be leaving for Tokyo?" She smiled warmly at him.
"First thing tomorrow morning." He replied.
"Aww, I was hoping I could have another meal together before you left, but I guess not." She frowned.
"Thank you Mrs.Higarashi. One thing that I know I'll miss is dining with you and your daughter."
She smiled, "Anytime."
"I'm sorry to be going so soon, but I still have much to pack. I thank you for yours kindness and hospitality." he picked up his plate and cup.
"Oh! I'll take care of that for you. You go on and pack, I've been needing to do the dishes all day anyways."
"Thank you, it was very nice meeting you." He touched her shoulder and smiled.
Kagome's mother walked past her and winked. However, Kagome had no idea what she was trying to hint.
Inuyasha began walking out the door, until Kagome yelled,"Wait!"
He turned around with his hand on the knob.
"I'll...um help you pack." She blushed.
"Heh, if you must..." He smiled.
