I DON'T OWN INUYASHA! (Been forgetting to do that. Sorry!)
~Love at Shikon High~
~Soul Mate Dreams, Band Practice, and Friends Being Crazy:
I stared down at Inuyasha, not even sure if he's really there, in the middle of the night, standing under my balcony. But by the crocked half smile I knew I was right; it was Inuyasha alright. I had half a mind to throw the hair spray at him anyway.
"Inuyasha!" I whispered yelled down to him. "What the hell are you doin?"
"The nightmare." He says. Those two words send more chills down my back than any horror story ever imagined. I pale, new tears coming down my face as I touch the throbbing of my side, still hearing his dark laugh in my thoughts.
I close my eyes and let the tears fall, fighting back the pain when I suddenly feel someone pick me up bridal style and lays me on my bed. I open my eyes and see golden ones staring into my own, filled with concern.
"Kags…" Inuyasha whispers. "Are you okay?" I nod not sure if words would work when you just saw, and felt yourself die. He looked at the arm clutching my side. I look down and noticed I was wearing black and white plaid fleece pajama pants with a pink draw string, 2 pink buttons (for show only), and pink hearts on the white squares. The shirt was a pink tank top with a white sparkly heart with wings on the front. I sigh in relief, glad I wore something decent instead of a giant sweatshirt or something.
"It hurts doesn't it…"
I look up at Inuyasha. His question isn't a question; it's a statement or a fact. Before I know it he takes my hand off of the spot on my side and puts his own there. Immediately, the throbbing subsides, like his hand is the ice pack I so desperately needed. I looked up at him.
"Why?" I ask. He looks taken back by my question, whether it's because I asked or because it had so many infinite responses.
"Why what?" He asks cautiously, obviously wanting to answer the right why question. I look at the blanket and pulled it tighter around me as I looked to Inuyasha, who was sitting beside me. He now had both of his hands in his lap, neither on my side, which was now just fine.
"Why were you in my dream? Why did I get hurt? Why are you here? Why can you remember the dreams like me? Why are me and you meant to be together? Just…why?" I ask, exasperated as more tears fall down my cheeks. I brush them away, angry at myself for letting some stupid dream get to me. What if it's not a dream?... I brush that voice away, something I had been doing all week for it was the same one that kept trying to get me to get closer to Inuyasha.
"I don't know Kagome… I just don't know… But I do know that I'm seeing those dreams with you for a reason… But why?"
"I know why…" I say, looking up at my blank ceiling but I could feel Inuyasha's startled glance at me. "But I can't tell you…" I swear I felt his jaw hit the bed.
"What? Why not?" He asked, angry and stubborn. I looked him in the eyes, my glared ones meeting his own.
"I'm not allowed. I'd have to ask permission. And since it's-." I turn to look at the clock on the nightstand and wasn't that surprised to see that it read 3:05 a.m. I turned back to him. "-3 in the flippin' morning, I don't think either of them will want me to call them at this hour. You can wait. It's not your future on the line…" I say, grumbling the last part. But of course, since Inuyasha is at least a half demon, he heard that part.
"Hey, listen wench. It obviously has something to do with me or else I wouldn't be seeing the same dreams as you. Someone obviously wants us to know something and I gotta feelin' you already know." He says, angry which makes me get angry right back. But, luckily, so far neither of us is yelling because we know if we were caught in this kinda position, it would be very bad.
"Listen, you flea bitten dog; I am not a wench. And really, what was your first clue? The fact that I told you or the fact that I told you?" I say, smiling even though there's an edge to my voice. He frowns, his glare darkening.
"I am not a flea bitten dog." He says it with the same disgust I had said wench. "And so you do know?"
"No duh. I just can't tell you."
"Why not?"
"I just can't. I'm under strict rules not too… Besides, I'm not going to until I understand what these dreams mean… Geez, next thing you know we'll be able to talk telepathically." I say it as a joke but I stiffen and me and Inuyasha look at each other.
"You don't think…" He lets his voice trail off.
"There's no way…" Even as I said it, I knew it was a lie, there is always a way.
We kept looking at each other and then there it was, like a little thread in my mind that led to some sort of door almost. I opened it and it was like a gateway to Inuyasha's mind.
Holy hell… I think.
You're telling me… Inuyasha thinks it right after me and we both jump when we realize we can hear each other's thoughts. I sit up and lean against the headboard.
"This cannot be happening… This cannot be happening… Tell me this isn't happening!" I say, freaking out. "Ohmigod, Ohmigod! This isn't in the books! Where the hell is a brown paper bag when you need one?!"
Inuyasha gave me a weird look. I roll my eyes.
"You use a brown paper bag to breathe into when you're freaking out." I say, talking slow as if to a little child. He rolls his eyes back at me.
"I know why you use it. I just don't see why you need one."
I gave him my greatest 'confused-and-are-you-flippin'-crazy-face' all in one.
"Because Inuyasha, think about us and all that's been happening!" I say, trying to keep my voice at a low volume so as not to wake the whole house, which I don't really see happening but I would really rather not experiment my theory about that.
"Can't priestesses do this?" He asks, confused.
"No! They aren't supposed too. And even if they could I don't think they should be able to with a demon, let alone a half demon." Then a thought came to my mind. "Maybe…you really are needed in my future…"
I think back to the dream where he talked about being my soul mate or something like that. Then it all clicked… My great-great-however many greats- aunt Midoriko did this… She wanted to show us this. She wanted to show us about us. I just sure as hell hoped that the dream wasn't a prediction of the future because I didn't like it one bit.
I met Inuyasha's eyes with my own, noticing how gold they were… Like amber and honey… I blinked and looked away, blushing, glad it was dark in here, and hoping he couldn't tell I was blushing.
"What the hell are you talking about?" Inuyasha finally asks, giving up on trying to figure out everything I already had, of course he didn't have the knowledge of the whole back story so I guess he wouldn't really understand anyway.
"…Nothing…" I say, lying because honestly, I don't know if I should tell Inuyasha or not. Of course he has something to do with this whole future thing; those dreams are proof of that.
"You're lying." He says, matter of factly. "We both know the dreams mean somethin'; you just know more than me, don't cha?"
"Well, depends on what subject we are talking about." I tease. He frowns.
"No funny business Kags."
"See, it wasn't actually funny business because you didn't laugh."
"Why the hell would I be laughing Kags?!" He says, his voice the same but the tone different. "I just saw you die in my arms! How the hell is that okay?!"
"It's not! I'm the one who died remember!" I say, my voice the same but the tone different as well. We begin glaring at each other but I just look away. "I'm the one who died… And if we would have kept the dream going, he would have probably killed you because of me… He's going to kill everyone because of me…" I whisper, another tear escaping down my cheek but is caught by a clawed thumb. I look over and see Inuyasha's face close to mine, his hand on my cheek.
"Kagome, whatever reason that guy did that to you; it wasn't your own fault. It was beyond your power. There wasn't anything you could do." He says, sounding concerned and strong, knowing I needed his strength. That's when I did something I thought I would never do, nonetheless to Inuyasha, but I threw my arms around his neck, buried my head on his should, and cried.
He wound his arms around my waist and hugged me, petted my hair, and rubbed my back while whispering soothing words into my ear while I just quietly sobbed into his shoulder. When the tears subsided, I stayed there, not wanting to look him in the eye when I said this.
"Inuyasha, you don't understand… It is my fault. And I could do something; I can do something." I say. I take a deep breath as if I'm about to jump into a swimming pool, which, in a way, I was.
"What are you talking about? Wait…are you talking about that Jewel thing that weird guy ripped out of your side?" I nod against his shoulder, actually liking how easily I fit, like a puzzle piece to his piece. I shook the feeling away and sat up and looked Inuyasha in the eyes.
"You deserve the truth…" I say, whispering it. "But I can't give it because even I don't have the full truth… I promise, I will talk to my aunt and tutor and we will sort this out. Pinky promise." I say, holding out my pinky. Inuyasha smiles. "What?" I ask defensively.
"Only you would make a tragic thing like this seem harmless with a 'pinky promise'." He says, mocking me almost. And yet, he wraps his own pinky around my own. I smile and put my hand in my lap.
"Great. We'll talk more tomorrow." I say, lying back down and closing my eyes as Inuyasha gets up from my bed. I open my eyes and see him across the room. "Inuyasha!" I say, making him turn towards me, a worried expression on his face.
"Yeah?" He asks. I blush but keep his gaze.
"Um… Look, I know we haven't known each other long but we're stuck in this situation and-." He stops me with a knowing smile.
"You're scared, aren't you?" He asks. I nod. He rolls his eyes but comes to my side anyway. He sits at the edge of the bed and takes one of my hands in his, it big and warm compared to my own. I close my eyes, and am relieved to find nothing from the last dream, as if Inuyasha is warding it away. I open one eye at him.
"Inuyasha?..." I say, timid. He looks down at me from where he's sitting, leaning against the headboard. I blush slightly, unsure of why I'm even saying this, let alone thinking it.
"Wait, you're gonna let me what?" He says, obviously already one step ahead of me, for once, since he read my mind.
Stupid telepathy powers… I think.
No way, these are awesome. I get to know what you think. He thinks back, sending the message to me. I smirk then.
Then I get to know what's in your mind too, smarty
This is a bad idea
I laugh out loud and notice he's smiling too, but I also see a slight blush on his cheeks. Wait, why would he be blushing?
I'm not blushing
I wasn't talking to you Inuyasha. Go to bed.
I will, in my own bed
I look up at him with big eyes and say aloud. "Please don't leave me Inuyasha… I'm really scared…" I can tell by his face he had given in. He scooted down so he was lying beside me, him on top of the blankets while I was under them.
You gonna get cold? I ask, not bothering to say the words when he can just hear them if I send it to him in a message. I was starting to get the hang of this; and I didn't know if that was a good thing or a bad thing.
Nope
Don't be stubborn
So says the queen of stubborn
I'd rather be queen that the princess like you. Although, now that I think about it, you're more of a Joker.
Haha, very funny
I know I am
Go to bed Kags
Good night, sweet dreams to you too Inuyasha
Yeah, yeah
Thanks Inuyasha
…Keh…
I roll my eyes and snuggle into Inuyasha's chest, not caring about anything except for the fact that my so called 'soul mate' is keeping me away from the nightmares that haunt my dreams. And I don't mind being close to him… Is that so bad?...
Of course it is stupid! You like Koga; Koga, not Inuyasha! I push my thought, the stupid voice out of my head.
I knew you liked him. Trust your heart, not your head. I hear, but from a different voice; a voice I know all too well by now; Midoriko.
I smile despite myself and snuggle closer to Inuyasha, happily accepting the non-nightmare filled sleep.
*Inuyasha P.O.V.*
I over and down at the girl who is snuggled against me, fitting perfectly. I try to control me heart and feelings since it obviously means nothing. Or does it?
She did invite you to stay. The voice is coming from my own thoughts.
Only because she was scared. I answered back.
Then she trusts you stupid
Or she was just scared and I was here
Yes, you were here
Duh
Think about it Inuyasha; why were you here?
I think about it, about what was running through my head as I raced over here.
I thought about how I felt in the dream as I watched her die in my arms; how it felt to hear her whisper the words 'I love you'; how it felt before in the previous dreams when we were together; how it felt to watch her smile or hear her laugh; how I felt about her; I loved her.
I looked back down at Kagome, who was sleeping peacefully, smiling slightly. I smile a little, thinking of how cute she looks curled up against my side. Almost like a kitten.
She probably doesn't feel the same way…
Of course she does
I freeze, looking at her, even though I know the voice in my head sounds nothing like her and I know it's not my own thoughts.
Uh, who the hell are you?
I'm Midoriko; Kagome's great-great-whatever greats aunt. I'm the soul that inhabits her, why she has the power and the Jewel.
That doesn't really explain why you're in my head.
Well, Inuyasha, you and her have discovered about the soul mates and about the telepathy you have.
Why do we have that?
Because, you're bound to her.
I'm bound to her?
Yes, it's what I just said, isn't it? So maybe she is Kagome's ancestor. I can't tell you how you're bound; I will leave that to the others. But know this; you must be with Kagome for she needs you in more ways than you think.
And then she's gone, as if she hadn't even been there at all. But I know she's listening and watching in her own weird way.
I think about what she said and what it could mean, as I drift off to sleep…
*Midoriko P.O.V.*
*~Their dream!~*
Inuyasha is running through the woods, trying to find her. He runs under branches, weaving through the trees, jumping over their roots. He finally reaches the clearing and sees Kagome sitting in the grass, surrounded by flowers. She turns her head at him and smiles.
"Took ya long enough, slow poke." She says, her voice teasing and light. He frowns and sits next to her.
"Yeah, well, I couldn't sleep." He says, his voice gruff. She laughs, sounding like bells.
"Whatever. And how could you not sleep?"
"Well, for one, you're clinging to me." He says, smirking as Kagome blushes.
"Don't pretend you don't love it." She says, smiling as a slight blush appears on Inuyasha's cheeks.
"Keh." He says, staring off into the distance.
"What do we do now?" She asks, making Inuyasha turn to her. Her head is on her knees, which are pulled to her chest, sideways so she can look at him. Her arms are wrapped around her knees, keeping them there.
"Whatcha mean?" He asks, leaning back so he's lying down in the grass as clouds roll by.
"You know what I mean." She says, looking at him. He looks back at her.
"…I don't know…" He says, making her roll her eyes and look away.
"You're such an idiot…"
"What do you want me to say?"
"Nothing…something…anything…" She sighs. "I don't know."
"That's what I said."
She turns to him and smacks his side her with her hand. She turns back to look out over the hill so he won't see her smile.
"You're such a jerk."
"I thought I was an idiot."
"You are. You're both."
"Then you're stubborn."
"Nu-uh!" She says, whirling around to look at him. He smirks.
"Like I said, stubborn."
"Ugh! You are so infuriating!"
"At least I'm not stubborn." He says in a sing-song kinda way. She frowns and then smiles. Inuyasha gives Kagome a weird look. "What?"
"Oh nothing." She says, smiling as she turns back to look over the clearing.
"It ain't nothin'."
"It is if I say it is."
"Well I say it ain't."
"I don't care what you say."
"Stubborn girl…" He says, rolling his eyes. Kagome turns to him.
"Stupid jerk."
"Ouch, that hurts Kags." Inuyasha says, holding a hand to his chest, putting a fake hurt expression on his face.
"I'ma really hurt you in a second if you don't knock it off." She says, a smile on her face as she looks up at the sky, humming along to the song in her head.
"Whatcha humming?"
"None ya business."
"Hmm… Don't think I've heard that one. Why don't you sing it for me?" He says, smirk in place. She takes him by surprise by singing.
~Something always brings me back to you
It never takes too long.
No matter what I say or do I'll still feel you here
'til the moment I'm gone.
You hold me without touch.
You keep me without chains.
I never wanted anything so much than to drown in your love
And not feel your rain.
Set me free, leave me be.
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am, and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
You loved me 'cause I'm so fragile.
When I thought I was strong.
But you touch me for a little while.
And all my fragile strength is gone.
Set me free, leave me be.
I don't want to fall another moment into your gravity.
Here I am, and I stand so tall, just the way I'm supposed to be.
But you're on to me and all over me.
I live here on my knees as I try to make you see
That you're everything I think I need here on the ground.
But you're neither friend nor foe thought I can't seem to let you go.
The one thing that I still know is that you're keeping me down,
You're keeping me down
Something always brings me back to you,
It never takes too long.
Kagome smiles and takes a deep breath as the last note fades over the clearing before opening her eyes to stare at the clouds overhead.
"I remember that song." Inuyasha says as he stares over the hill. Kagome looks to him. "You sang it on your first day here in chorus…"
"How would you know that?"
"I went to listen."
"Why?" She says, incredulous. Inuyasha meets her eyes and smiles.
"I was curious about the new girl." She goes to say something but he stops her with his next comment. "It's what made you even better."
She blushes and looks back up at the clouds. "Is that why you asked me to join your band?" She asks quietly.
"One of the reasons…" He answers, just as quietly. Kagome looks at him.
"Inuyasha, what are we getting ourselves into?" She asks, leaning her head on her knees again. He sighs and stares back at the clouds.
"A big situation."
Kagome laughs. "No duh! And the worst part is you don't know the half of it." She sighs and then abruptly stands up and brushes off her jeans. "So, are we doing this every night?"
"Doing what?" Inuyasha asks, standing up as well.
"This whole dream thing."
"Hell if I know."
"Yeah, it would be Hell if you knew anything." She smirks while he frowns.
"Hurtful."
"Why do you think I said it?" She says before turning around to start walking down the hill.
"Where are you going?" He asks, following her. Kagome shrugs.
"Anywhere, nowhere."
"You have no idea."
"Nope! I don't know and I don't care." She says, bending down to pick some flowers.
"Do you even know where we are?"
"Nope!"
"Do you care?"
"A little bit. But it's better than the nightmares we've been having." She says, shuddering a little from the very thought of the newest nightmare.
"You can say that again."
"Wow, that demon hearing doesn't help you at all does it?" She teases, sending him a smirk behind her back.
"Keh."
"Is that all you can say?"
"Wench." He says with a smirk. Kagome turns to face him.
"Bite me."
"Maybe I will."
"Maybe you shouldn't." She says, proving a point by making a barrier around herself, smiling. She drops it and walks to him. "Hold out your hand."
"Why?"
"Just do it." Kagome says impatiently. Inuyasha rolls his eyes but does as she says, holding out his left arm. She smiles and ties on a flower bracelet she had made from the blue and purple and yellow flowers.
"What?"
"Just wear it." She says. She then holds out her right one, showing a matching one in blue, purple, and pink. Then she grabs Inuyasha's left hand in her right one and drags him down with her to the lake at the bottom of the little hill.
She sits on a log near the water's edge, making Inuyasha sit with her. She stares out over the water, smiling at how pretty it looks.
"Do you like Koga?" He blurts out, not thinking. She looks at him, surprised.
"Why?"
"I thought we were soul mates."
"That hasn't been proven."
"Yeah it has. We do this mind thing don't we?"
"I can't even explain that."
"I can." I say, surprising both of the teens on the log. I smile. "You didn't think I didn't do this, did you?"
"Midoriko?" Kagome asks, standing up to face me.
"Of course!" I say.
"But you look…different." She says, looking at me weird. Inuyasha just looks lost. I laugh a little.
"No, honey. You're thinking of the other Midoriko. I'm the older one; the first one. The one whose soul lives inside of you. Well, part of my soul anyway."
"You're the lady that was talking to me!" Inuyasha says, realization hitting him. I give Kagome a look.
"You're lover boy over there ain't that bright, is he?" I ask, which makes Kagome blush.
"He isn't my lover boy." She says, blushing as she looks at me. "But, since you've been ease dropping you already know that."
"Since I have been ease dropping I do know that he so is." I say. "But that isn't why I'm here. I'm here to talk to you guys."
"Obviously." Inuyasha says. I give him a look that shuts him up.
"Let's all sit down." I say, sitting on a log beside theirs. They sit down as I sit down on mine.
"Alright; I, as a ghost, can see the future." Kagome and Inuyasha go to ask a question but I hold up my hand. "Please, hold all questions until the end. Thank you." I put my hand down as they shut their mouths. "Like I was saying; since I can do that, I know you and Inuyasha are supposed to be together, that you guys are soul mates. Y'all know it too but are too stubborn to admit it." Both of them blush, making me smile, knowing I'm right. "Which means, y'all will be working together to save the world."
"Save the world?" Inuyasha says, giving Kagome a look.
"You haven't told him anything, have you?" I ask Kagome. She shakes her head and I sigh. "Well, that might make things a little more difficult."
"I was waiting for Midoriko and Kaede."
"Well, I am Midoriko."
"The other one."
"Well, I can count. Where should I start?"
"Well, just the basics. I'm still learning some of the details myself."
"They are just keeping you kids so sheltered, aren't they?" I say, more to myself.
"Okay, you are not what I expected when I thought of my great-great-however many greats aunt." Kagome says making me laugh.
"Yeah, well, I learned a few things."
"Obviously…" She says, giving me a look.
"Listen, we don't have that long. It'll be morning soon. Just keep close together, no matter what. Got it?" I say, giving each of them a look. They nod.
"Are they going to explain why?"
"They better. Now that you know all this, they have too." I smile a mischievous smile because that's partly my fault. "Goodbye guys. I'll talk to you later…" I stand up and start walking in the woods but turn back to them. "Don't forget what I said. Y'all need each other more than you know…" And with that, I leave them, walking into the woods, as they wake up from their dream.
*~End of dream!~*
*Kagome P.O.V.*
I snuggle closer to the warm body of heat that's lying next to me. I open my eyes when I realized that the warm body of heat was an actually body that moved. I look up and see silver hair and hear a slight snore coming from the guy sleeping next to me.
…Holy hell?!
I bolt right up in bed so I'm sitting up and stare at Inuyasha, who's lying in my bed! I try to calm my beating heart. I look at him and smile slightly at how sweet he looks. He snores really loud. Well, it lasted for a second.
That's when I notice his twitching ears, the ears of a puppy dog almost, so cute and fuzzy. I resist the urge to touch them… but give in, gently touching one with my fingers. It flicks away before settling down under my touch.
I giggle and rub it slightly when Inuyasha's eyes flick open.
"What the hell are you doing?" He asks, making me jump and quickly take my hand away. I blush slightly and look him in the eyes anyway.
"I could ask you the same thing." I say. "What the hell are you doing in my bed?"
"Last night, you asked me to." He says, sitting up and yawning. I suddenly remember.
"Well, I thought you might leave…" I say, slightly sad just thinking about it.
"Why would I do that?" He says, scoffing as he stands up and stretches.
"Because you're Inuyasha. That's why." I say, standing up and going to my vanity.
"Yeah, well… I saw the nightmare too." He says. I catch his eyes in the mirror.
"…Yeah… You remembered the dream?" I ask, talking about last night's dream as I brush my unruly hair.
"Duh."
"Whatever. So, this is our secret, right?"
"Duh. I don't even know the whole story yet."
"And you will, trust me. I'm going to call Midoriko and Kaede right now." I see his look. "A different Midoriko from last night. And speaking of that; you need to leave." I turn around and see he's already ready to go. "Oh."
He smirks. "Text me if you need me to come back before or after practice."
"Okay…" I say standing up and walking him to the balcony. "Inuyasha?"
He turns to me, and I look up at him. Then I hug him super tight, taking him by surprise. He wraps his arms around me.
"Thanks Inuyasha…" I say, talking about last night.
"…Anything for you Kags…" He says, talking softly. I smile.
After about a minute I step away and smile up at him. "Well, I'll talk to you later." He smiles.
"Yep, you will. Catch ya later wench." He says before jumping down off the balcony. I look over the edge and see him already walking away.
"Whatever pup!" I call down to him, smiling. He looks up at me and smirks. I wave and he rolls his eyes and walks away.
I smile and go back inside, closing the balcony door behind me.
Oh Kami, what have I gotten myself into?
I take a deep breath and walk out of my room and down the stairs to the kitchen. I walk in and notice nobody's in there. I don't see a note so I just figure they might be sleeping in. I check the time on the clock on the kitchen wall and see it's 8:05. Geez…
I grab a bowl, spoon, and the box of Coco Puffs from the cabinet. I grab the milk from the fridge and make me some cereal. I put the milk back up and then settle on a stool at the island and eat my Coco Puffs.
I'm sitting there eating when I suddenly remember I'm supposed to do something before Monday, but can't remember what it was… It was important…
We got a test in science on Monday, smarty
I jump from the voice in my head and frown when I realize it's just Inuyasha.
I wasn't talking to you
Yeah, well, I heard it
Well you weren't supposed too
Obviously
Can you even spell that word?
Haha, not
You laughed, didn't you?
And you call me infuriating
Yes I do because you are
So are you
You're annoying
And you're stubborn
You're stupid
You're stupid
Only a stupid person would say that
You would know
Ugh! Inuyasha, I'm trying to eat my breakfast in peace.
You started it
And I'm also ending it
Whatever wench
Back at you, pup
I smile and eat the last spoonful of my Coco Puffs. I put the bowl and spoon in the sink and put the cereal back up in the cabinet. I walk back upstairs and feel bad for how mean I was to Inuyasha.
I'm sorry Inuyasha. You stayed with me and I shouldn't be mean…
No, you shouldn't. You owe me 20 more favors
What?!
You were mean
Ugh, fine, just whatever
You're forgiven
I better be
I can almost hear his laughter and see his smile. I smile too. Well, this is quite a mess I'm in… Midoriko, you better have a plan.
I look away from the T.V. in my room and look at the clock and see it says 10:27 a.m. I grab the remote and turn the T.V. down so I can't hear the movie Grease anymore. I grab my phone and look at the paper in my hand, the paper that has Midoriko's number on it.
I call her and wait for her to pick up.
"Hello?" She says.
"Midoriko, its Kagome." I say, looking at my nails as I sit on my bed.
"Oh, Kagome. Do you have a question?" She asks, concern in her voice.
"Actually yes… A lot of them actually. So, I was wondering if we could meet sometime this weekend, as soon as possible if possible…" I say, hoping she'll agree.
"It's happened, hasn't it?" She asks, suddenly.
"Huh?" I say, confused although I have a slight idea about what she's talking about.
"Never mind. I can meet you later tonight. Bring Inuyasha." She says, ending the call.
I take my phone away from my ear and look at it.
"Wow, so all Midoriko's are gonna be like that today." I say, rolling my eyes. I don't even bother text Inuyasha; I just use our telepathy thing. It's good for something at least, I hope.
Inuyasha?
Yo
She'll see us tonight
Ok
Well…see ya at band practice
Duh
Good bye Inuyasha
Bye Kags
I smile to myself as I turn the volume back up. Now, just to wait until it's time to go to the band practice…
I hop out of my car as I stand up and look at Inuyasha and Rin's house, which looks more like a mansion if you ask me. It's about 3 stories, gigantic, which trees and flowers all around.
I look down and situate my outfit. I'm wearing a black tank top/muscle shirt that says 'WEEKEND WARRIOR' in white capital letters on the front with my dark shorts with slight holes or rips along the front that don't show any skin. I'm wearing my black high top converses with the studs on them. I have on random bracelets and my charm necklace, slight make-up, and black hoops.
I look at the cars in the driveway and see that Sango, Miroku, Koga, and Sayuri are already here. I walk up to the front door on the giant wraparound porch and go to knock when it opens to reveal Inuyasha, who smirks at me. He's wearing a black shirt that says 'CHICK MAGNET' in white with a picture of a magnet and some baby chicks stuck to it. He's also wearing his trademark dark jeans and black converses.
"Came to join the party, I see." He says. I smirk back.
"You know it." I say, walking past him and inside the house. "It ain't a party without me." He laughs and shuts the door and we walk through the front area and into the living room to see everyone else already in there, and I do mean everyone.
There's a giant sectional couch in the middle back of the huge living room, directly in line with the giant flat screen T.V. There are 2 other smaller couches, and 3 love seat chairs around the living room with some tables, a coffee table in front of the sectional, and some lamps and plants. On the sectional are Ginta, Sayuri, Kagami, Kiehauna, Rin, Sango, and Miroku. On a couch are Zelda and Hakkaku. In a loveseat is Koga. Everyone turns to look at me and Inuyasha as we enter. I smile.
Koga is wearing a white shirt with a sketch of the Nightmare before Christmas on it in black with dark jeans and his black vans with his hair in his usual ponytail, his smile in place.
Hakkaku is wearing a navy blue t-shirt that says 'PANIC AT THE DISCO' in white on the front. His dark gray basketball shorts and Nike's would look out of place if it wasn't for Hakkaku wearing it.
Ginta is wearing a yellow t-shirt with Jake's face on it from Adventure Time, the show. His jeans are light-ish, with red converses poking out at the bottom. I smile, loving how none of that even goes together. Then I notice the red rubber bracelet on Ginta's arm that says, 'I HEART MY GIRLFRIEND'. I fight the urge to say Aww.
Miroku is wearing a plain dark purple shirt and dark jeans, his dark blue vans poking out from the bottom. His hair is in its usual short ponytail. His gold earrings catch the light as he moves his head to talk to Sango and check her out, not too subtly either.
Sango is wearing a blue/green flow-y shirt with 'love' written in silver cursive on the front and it has a hole in the back top part. She's wearing dark shorts and black Hi Top shoes with shiny stripes on the sides. Her hair is up in its normal ponytail, black jelly bracelets on her arms.
Rin is wearing a gray crop top with a picture of a kitten wearing a cozy hat with light shorts and black and blue Nike's. Her hair is up in a braided bun. Her make-up is light, rainbow jelly bracelets on her arms. Her diamond earrings catch the light, shining brightly every once in a while.
Sayuri is wearing hot pink short sleeved crop top that says 'YOU MAKE ME BLUSH' in black sequined letters, her black tank top showing at the bottom. Her white shorts have splattered pink on them. Her hot pink converses go up to her knees, the white laces splattered with the same hot pink. Her hair is down and loose, falling in pretty natural waves. She has random bracelets covering her arms, a necklace with a pink heart sits on her chest, and pink hoops shine through her hair.
Kagami is wearing black sweatpants with red tights under it with black Jordan's poking out at the bottom. Her shirt is a black tube top with red roses streaming down. Her long turquoise hair is up in a top knot with a black bow holding it. A gold necklace is shining as it lies on her chest; it says 'Sayuri' written in cursive with a pink heart for the dot on the 'i' at the end.
Kiehauna is wearing a blue tee that says 'STAY STRONG AND BE BEAUTIFUL' in black, 'be beautiful' written in cursive writing while the rest is in all caps and block letters. Little black hearts decorate it all around. Her shorts have bedazzles on the front pockets. Her shoes are bright blue Nike's with a black check on the side. Her jet black hair with midnight blue and silver tips is put in a low ponytail on the side of her face.
Zelda is wearing a lime green shirt with a picture of Gir on it and it says, 'COME AT ME BRO!' in white letters around Gir, who has his fists up with an angry face on. She's also wearing black shorts and lime green converses. Her jet black hair is straightened around her face, her green eyes piercing.
"Kagome!" Sayuri yells, waving at me. I wave back and walk over to the 2nd couch, Inuyasha beside me. We sit down as everyone says their hellos.
"Now, since slow poke arrived can we get the stupid practice started?" Kagami says, her head on Sayuri's shoulder.
"Kagami, be nice." Sayuri says.
"Yes, we can." Rin says.
"Actually, I'm waiting on Agent M, although since she's off duty, she's going by her alias; Sentenza. It's also her real name." Sayuri says, smiling like always.
"Well, is she gonna get here soon?" Sango asks, impatient like almost everyone else over there.
"She's already here."
We look towards the kitchen to see Agent M, Sentenza, walking in with a Sprite in hand and Agent Heartnet beside her.
She's wearing a red shirt that says 'TACO NYA!' and then below it is a picture of Taco Cat flying through the sky wearing a sombrero and a mustache with white, green, and red striped line following him. Her skinny jeans are split; the right leg is black while the left is black with red skulls on it. Her shoes are converses with about 4 folds at the tops and sides; black, dark gray, light gray, and red on the outer side. The laces are black. Her hair is down and framed around her face but it doesn't hide her red eyes or her smirk.
Agent Heartnet is wearing a red shirt with a picture of 2 Labrador's heads on 2 burritos with nachos around them. His dark jeans match the look, with red converses poking out. His brown hair sticks up slightly, his smile in place.
"What's up, bitches?" She says, walking into the living room with Agent Heartnet at her heels. She plops down into a loveseat, Agent Heartnet standing by her side.
"Sentenza!" Sayuri says, breaking the silence.
"Sayuri, happy as always I see." She says, taking a sip from her Sprite.
"How did you get in?" Inuyasha asks, looking at her. Sentenza meets his eyes and smiles.
"If I told you, then I'd have to kill you." She says, quietly. His eyes get wide and she laughs. "I'm kidding…or am I?"
"Same old Sentenza I see." Zelda says, smiling. Sentenza smiles back.
"Of course." She says, smiling evilly. "So, what's the plan?"
"Depends on what you play." Sango says.
"Electric guitar but I'm here for the electrical stuff; like fireworks for the concerts." Sentenza says, taking another gulp of Sprite. Some of the people look at her weird, wondering if she's serious.
"Alrightey then. Since everyone's here, let's get this practice started. To the practice room!" Rin says, jumping up and walking to the kitchen.
We all stand up and follow her. We walk through the kitchen and out the side door and to this room off to the side of the house. We walk in and see there's a sectional that can fit about 8 people, a small couch, and then a chair. A T.V. hangs on the wall with a coffee table between the seats. Farther to the back of the side is a small kitchen, complete with fridge, microwave, and oven, along with a large counter space, bar stools, and cabinets. On the other side is band equipment that we need. Drums, piano, microphones, amps, guitars of all kinds, speakers, seats, everything we need.
"Wow…" I say, walking to one of the acoustic guitars.
"Alright! Should we have auditions for places or what?" Rin says, standing in front of the coffee table while everyone else is in the seats. I walk to the bar and sit on one of the stools with Inuyasha.
"Why don't we just play a song with some random people and switch it up and out from there, or keep it like that or what?" Sango says.
"Well, I think we should pick the people who actually want to be in the band part that's gonna be on stage." Sayuri says.
"I agree!" Rin says, smiling. "Now, raise your hand if you actually want to be on stage."
Sayuri, Inuyasha, Koga, Ginta, and I raise our hands, making Rin smile even more.
"Great! Get up there and show us what you got!" She says, motioning us towards the band area.
"Hey, yo! Lil miss bossy!" Kagami says. "What about those of us who wanna help with the backstage junk, dancing, or back ground singing?"
"Well, lil miss callin' people names." Rin says. "You'll get to do stuff when you are needed."
"Kagami… Be nice." Sayuri says, her voice warning.
"Since when is being nice fun?" Sentenza says, still singing her stolen sprite.
"I agree." Kagami says.
Sayuri, Inuyasha, Koga, Ginta, and I walk to the band area. I stand in the center, in front of the big mike. Sayuri goes to the piano. Ginta picks up a bass guitar, getting in the area in between me and Sayuri with a mike stand. Inuyasha gets on my other side with a guitar. Koga gets in the back with the drums. I look at everyone in turn.
"What we playing?" I ask, talking to everyone. We all look at one another, unsure of what to play. Sayuri smiles and starts playing something. I recognize the tune and so does everyone else as they follow suit. I wait for my cue and begin to sing with Sayuri backing me up.
~(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
So much for my happy ending
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh)
(Oh, oh)
Let's talk this over,
It's not like we're dead,
Was it something I did?
Was it something you said?
Don't leave me hanging,
In a city so dead,
Held up so high,
On such a breakable thread.
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending,
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending
You've got your dumb friends,
I know what they say,
They tell you I'm difficult,
But so are they.
But they don't know me,
Do they even know you?
All the things you hide from me,
All the shit that you do.
You were all the things I thought I knew
And I thought we could be
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memoirs, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
It's nice to know that you were there,
So thanks for acting like you cared
And making me feel like I was the only one.
It's nice to know we had it all,
Thanks for watching as I fall
And letting me know we were done.
He was everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
You were everything, everything that I wanted
We were meant to be, supposed to be, but we lost it
All of the memories, so close to me, just fade away
All this time you were pretending
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh
So much for my happy ending
Oh oh, oh oh,
Oh oh, oh oh
As the last note fades, along with the last of the band sounds I smile to the guys and Sayuri, proud about our first trip as a band. Everyone else starts applauding, obviously liking how it went.
"Well! We got our main band performers; agreed?" Rin says, asking everyone else. There are some 'Yeas!', nods of the heads, and overall, no objections so we all take that as a yes. "Great!"
Me and the rest of the band walks to the couches to sit down, wondering what Rin plans on doing now.
"No, Kagome. You can't sit down." Rin says. I stop halfway in the motion of sitting down.
"What?" I ask. "Why not?"
"I want to try something, girls only." She says, smiling a devious smile. "I'm the manager, do as I say."
I roll my eyes but stand up, along with Sayuri, Rin, Sango, Kagami, Kiehauna, Zelda, and Sentenza. We walk to the band area, the guys watching us. She starts moving the mikes and stuff back, to make a huge space where the equipment was. We help her and she walks to the sound system when we're done and presses a few buttons and then, an old classic starts playing through the room. Immediately, the beat makes us start dancing, grooving together and around the room.
Person doing something, singing
~Rin starts us off. Yo, I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
I smile and answer back, dancing. So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
Kagami answers back, grooving down. I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
Sayuri sings, strutting her stuff. So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
Rin dances to the middle front, Sango and me on each side. On my other side, there's Sayuri, Kagami, and Kiehauna. On Sango's other side, there's Sentenza and Zelda. We are all doing moves all at once, moving our arms and hips to the beat, totally having fun.
Rin answers back. I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah
Kiehauna takes us away, stepping forward with the swing of her hips and hair. If you want my future; forget my past.
As Kiehauna steps away, Sentenza steps up, smirking. If you wanna get with me, better make it fast.
Sayuri saunters up, making her hips and hair sway, smiling as she sends a sneaky wink to Ginta. Now don't go wasting my precious time
Zelda grooves on up, green eyes shining. Get your act together we could be just fine.
By now, the boys are in shock, but we are having too much fun to care about them.
Sango steps up, swinging her hips to the delight of Miroku. I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
Kagami answers, bringing some shakes and sways to the dance mix. So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
Rin smiles and laughs before answering with a flip of the hand and hip. I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah
I make a heart with my hands and move it back and forth from my chest to the area in front of me, swinging my hips. If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends. I open my hands to my friends around me.
Sayuri echoes me. Gotta get with my friends
Zelda sings, smiling as she moves and grooves with the others as we move around. Make it last forever, friendship never ends
Kagami motions to herself, bringing them to her body as she sings the next line. If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give
Kiehauna smirks at the on looking crowd of boys. Taking is too easy, but that's the way it is
Sentenza smirks and grooves to the front-ish area of our group of dancing girls. Oh, what do you think about that
Sango sings, eyeing Miroku. Now you know how I feel
Sayuri flaunts on up near the front, smiling as she flips her hair over her shoulder, winking at Ginta when they make eye contact. Say, you can handle my love, are you for real
Rin echoes her with a swing of her hips. Are you for real
I get to the front and make eye contact with Inuyasha, smirking slightly as I waggle a finger in my face before putting it down with a wink and twirl. I won't be hasty; I'll give you a try
Kagami gets in the front, hand on hip as she waves bye to the boys, giving the finger to a lucky Miroku. If you really bug me then I'll say goodbye
We hurry to opposite sides: Me, Sayuri, Zelda, and Kagami on one side. On the other side are Rin, Sango, Kiehauna, and Sentenza on the other. My side starts first. We lean towards their group while they lean back. Yo I'll tell you what I want, what I really, really want
We switch so they lean forward while we lean back while they sing back. So tell me what you want, what you really, really want
We mix it up while Rin gets to the front and smiles. I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna, (ha) I wanna really, really, really wanna zigazig ah
Sentenza bumps her way to the front. If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends
Zelda echoes her, moving to her side. Gotta get with my friends
Kiehauna, who's dancing with Sayuri, takes the next line while smiling. Make it last forever, friendship never ends
Sayuri sings, smiling and laughing while doing some disco move with Kiehauna and Kagami, who are on both sides of her. If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give
Sango, who's dancing with Rin, sings the next line. Taking is too easy but that's the way it is
Kagami gets to the front to start rapping and singing the next part, all of us behind her, dancing.
So, here's a story from A to Z
You wanna get with me, you gotta listen carefully
We got Em in the place who likes it in your face
You got G like MC who likes it on a…
Easy V doesn't come for free, she's a real lady
And as for me, ha you'll see!
We are all in some kind of group formation, Kagami up front, me and Rin on her sides. Sayuri on my other side, Sango on hers. Behind us are Kiehauna, Sentenza, and Zelda, following our group formation as we sing in unison, jumping for the first part
of the lyrics, swinging our body around for the second part.
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
We then break the formation, laughing and smiling as we just get together with enough room to dance while we do random moves with each other, having fun.
Sayuri takes it away, putting a heart to her chest before motioning to us around her for the second part. If you wanna be my lover, you gotta get with my friends
Kiehauna echoes her, grooving with Sango and Rin. Gotta get with my friends
Rin takes the next line. Make it last forever, friendship never ends
Sentenza takes the line after, doing a random move with Zelda, Sayuri, and Kagami. If you wanna be my lover, you have got to give
Sango takes the last solo line as we get into our line formation. Taking is too easy but that's the way it is
We get into a line: Kagami, Sayuri, Me, Rin, Sango, Kiehauna, Zelda, and Sentenza in that order. We start bumping hips and doing a disco hand move, laughing as we sing in unison.
If you wanna be my lover
You gotta, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta, you gotta
Slam, slam, slam, slam (make it last forever)
We do the same move we did before; jumping for the first part and swinging our bodies and hands in circular position on the second part as we sing in unison, smiling.
Slam you body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha
Slam your body down and wind it all around
Slam your body down and zigazig ah
If you wanna be my lover!
(Back to normal)
We laugh and high five or hug each other, smiling and talking about how awesome we did, sweating slightly. The boys stand up and clap for us and we laugh and take a bow.
"Damn right bitches. You best be fucking clapping." Kagami says, plopping down on the couch while Sayuri rolls her eyes, still smiling.
"Ignore here. She gets cranky." Sayuri says.
"Shut up." Kagami says, her eyes closed as she lays down, trying to chill.
Agent Heartnet walks to Sentenza, who smirks as she stands with Zelda. Hakkaku makes his way to Zelda. Miroku walks to Sango and Rin who are laughing together. Ginta and Sayuri meet halfway, both smiling. Koga and Inuyasha walks towards me and Kiehauna. Oh boy…
*Inuyasha P.O.V.*
She looked gorgeous, dancing and smiling with her friends on stage. I smile slightly, listening to her beautiful voice and laugh, looking at the slight red on her cheeks from all her dancing and singing. I look over at Koga and notice him looking at her and push down the jealous feeling I get and just focus on the beautiful girl who will soon be mine. I get up, and walk towards her, ready to congratulate a good job well done.
*Koga P.O.V.*
Damn… I watch Kagome do her thing out on the floor, loving how she's dancing, swinging her hips back and forth. I smirk and keep looking, listening as her voice carries to me. When they finish, her laughter filling my head, I stand up and make my way to her, trying to control my animal instinct; at least for now…
*Miroku P.O.V.*
Wow… I push down the man instinct in me as I watch Sango swing her hips on the floor, swinging other parts of her as she does so. Even from the mind of a perv who goes after every girl; nobody would ever top her… Now, I just have to let her know that. I stand up and make my way to her, my smile in place as I rid myself of all pervy thoughts; well, as many as possible anyway.
*Ginta P.O.V.*
I push down the fluttering of my heart, and other parts, as I watch Sayuri hit the last part of the song, winking at me and smiling. I swallow as she gives high fives and hugs to the rest of her friends, smiling and laughing. We meet eyes and my heart starts up again and she smiles, her eyes glinting in the light. I smile back and walk towards her, happy she's mine and no one else's.
*Hakkaku P.O.V.*
Holy bloody hell… Who knew lil Zelda had all that bottled up somewhere? I think as I watch her hit the final lines, doing the dances and smiling, green eyes lightening from the fun, as she sings along. When they're done, I watch her smile as she lets her hair fall back in her face. I stand up and walk to her, smiling the whole way.
*Rin P.O.V.*
I look around at all the couples, defined or undefined and smile and sigh. Well, Universe, looks like we got a lot of work to do…
*Kagome P.O.V.*
"Heyyyya!" I say, smiling at Inuyasha and Koga, Kiehauna at my side. They smile back, stopping in front of us.
"Hey, good job Kags." Inuyasha says.
"Yeah, good job Babe." Koga says, smiling wide while his blue eyes twinkle.
Jackass…
I hear Inuyasha's thought in my mind but push it away, closing our mind door again.
"Thanks Inuyasha, Koga. It was tons of fun." I say, smiling really big.
"Yeah, it was. Kags over here has got some moves." Kiehauna says, smiling at me. I smile back.
"Girl, you sound like you surprised."
"I am." She says, making us both laugh.
"Yeah, me too." I say, still giggling. I look back up at Inuyasha and Koga and clear my throat. "Well, today's been a lot of fun."
"Obviously." Koga says. I stick my tongue out at him and he chuckles. "Kagome, you can be so immature."
"I prefer the term fun." I say, making him chuckle some more. I look around and see Sayuri giggling in Ginta's arms. Sango is talking to Miroku and she blushes so I know something went down. I'll get details later. I see Hakkaku talking to Zelda and am a little surprised when she laughs at something he says. Rin is standing in front of the coffee table, the couch beside her occupied by a laying down Kagami.
"Attention, attention!" Rin says, making everyone stop and look at her. "Great practice! Now that we have a feel for where we're going with this and what everyone can do, we'll meet again soon so stay posted! Meeting adjourned!" She says, smiling as everyone goes back to their conversations.
"Well, I gotta go…" Kiehauna says. She gives me a piece of paper and smiles. "Here's my number; I have a feeling we'll be besties by the time this is all over." I smile back.
"I hope so…" I say, sticking the number into my pocket. Sayuri comes and hugs me.
"Bye Kags! It was good to see you! You got my number so don't be a stranger." She says, smiling as she steps away. She walks to Ginta and kisses him. I turn away, smiling, and look at Zelda and Kagami, bickering on their way out the door with Kiehauna. I wave as they walk out. I turn to Sango and Rin.
"Well, I'm going to head out." I say, smiling and waving.
"Same here." Koga says.
"Yep." Sango says.
"Gotta go too." Miroku says.
"Bye Rin, Inuyasha!" I say, smiling as I walk out the practice room, and into the sun, feeling pretty good.
I just walk into my room, humming the song that was on the radio, water bottle in hand when I shut the door to my room.
"Took you long enough."
I scream and drop my water bottle. A clawed hand grabs it before it hits the ground and I look up in golden, honey orbs of yellow/gold light. I try to calm my heart and breathe as I smack Inuyasha's arm while he chuckles.
"You jerk!" I say, smacking him.
"You shoulda' seen your face!" Inuyasha says, laughing.
"Ugh! You're so infuriating!" I shriek, smiling slightly as I take my water from his hand and take a sip from it as I walk over to my bed, grabbing the remote the nightstand before I plop down with it in hand.
"Keh…" He says, plopping down beside me as I turn on the T.V., watching Aladdin on one of the weekend movie channels. I look at him.
"Why the hell are you in my room anyway?" I ask, incredulous. He looks at me with a confused and stupid expression.
"Waiting for you, duh." He says, smirking while I roll my eyes.
"I'm serious."
"You said we're meeting whoever tonight, right?" He says. I smirk.
"Of course… How could I forget? Of course you wouldn't forget because you're all about figuring out what I know and what you don't." I say, my smirk widening while he frowns.
"I'll figure it out when they tell me."
"Duh, because they'll tell you." I say, rolling my eyes again. He frowns more.
"Keh…"
"That's your answer to everything you can't answer with a real answer."
"Well, if I answered it then no, it's not." Inuyasha says. I give him a look.
"You're so stupid."
"I thought I was infuriating."
"You're both."
"Aww, thanks for sayin' I'm special Kags." He says, smirking. I smile back.
"Shut up Inuyasha…" I say, looking back at the T.V. He smirks and looks at the T.V. with me.
"Are you staying here or something?" I ask.
"Yep." He says, popping the 'p'.
"Thought so..." I say, sighing at the end.
"So much enthusiasm." He says, smirking.
"Keep messin' with me, and I'll put you outside." I say, smirking back while not looking at him.
"Wench."
"Mutt."
"Stubborn."
"Jerk."
"Scaredy-cat." He says. I meet his eyes.
"I may be a kitten, but this kitten has claws that are lethal weapons." I say, smiling while he laughs.
"Sure Kags."
"Don't make me hit you."
"Like I could feel it."
"I'ma make you feel something in a minute." I mutter under my breath… He laughs.
"Loved to see you try."
"I'm sure you would."
We look at the T.V. when my phone goes off. I take it out of my pocket and see it's a message from my mom. It says: Gonna be late; you might be home alone but Midoriko said she's coming over to talk. Love you!
I smile and text her back saying I love her too. I look at the time and am surprised it says 6:15. Dang, where did the time go? I put my phone in my pocket.
Obviously somewhere else
I roll my eyes at him, as his thought enters my head, noticing the 'door' separating our minds must have reopened sometime.
You're irritating in my mind and outside of it
Ah, so I'm inside your mind
Ugh!
I stand up, grab my water bottle, and walk out of my room, down the stairs, and into the kitchen. I set my water bottle on the counter/island in the kitchen. I open the pantry and look for something I feel like eating.
I see chicken flavored Ramen Noodles and grab 4 packages; sure a half demon like Inuyasha could eat a lot of that. I grab a pot from the cupboard and put some water in it from the sink. I turn on the stove and put the pot on one of the burners, the one I just turned on, and wait for the water to boil.
I start humming to a song in my head while I wait. I turn away from the stove and come face to face with Inuyasha.
"Geez, Inuyasha. Ever hear about personal space?" I say, smirking.
"Geez, Kagome, Ever hear about a brain?"
"Ha, that's not even funny."
"You laughed."
"I fake laughed; that's different."
"It still has laughed in it."
"Whatever."
"Ah, come on Kags; you can do better than that."
"At what exactly?"
"Comebacks."
"I already know I'm better than you so why bother wasting my breathe?"
"You can think it then."
"You're so irritating."
"And amazing."
"Annoying."
"Talented."
"A jerk face."
"Sexy."
"Stupid."
"Stubborn."
"Am not."
"Are too."
"I don't argue with idiots; they'll bring me to their level and beat me with experience."
"Good one; cept you already used it."
"Surprised you remembered; didn't think it was in your description."
"Oh, so you have a description for me?"
"Like you even need a description for me."
"Stubborn, funny, talkative."
"Don't get me started Inuyasha."
"Didn't know you ever stopped."
That's when we notice how close together we are, our noses almost touching, my back to the counter, his hands on either side of my on the counter. I catch his eyes and so much is said; even though it isn't. We pick fights and tease but we both know the true feelings we have. We both know that little bit about our future; that we're tied together as soul mates. For once, I don't doubt it. The charge between us intensifies, setting my nerves on edge. And then, it's like gravity, we start getting pulled together…our lips almost touching…
When we hear the clearing of a throat.
