Chapter Twenty-one: Trying to Get over Love
It had been a week now and Kagome had been away from Inuyasha a lot she was normally out with her friends or out with Hojo. Inuyasha was left home lying in her bed waiting for her to come home like it was when he was a pet. Inuyasha was upset he loved Kagome but he felt like she didn't love him seeming as she was now so soon treating him like a pet, but he couldn't really talk to her as a dog.
Kagome walked with her head low Hojo walked close beside her his arm around her grinning. Kagome sighed and looked off to the side. 'Inuyasha wanted me to get over him, but everything I try isn't working… Everything I do I still think of him.' She sighed and looked up at Hojo. "I think I need to go home.." She smiled. Hojo nodded. "Ok I'll walk you home."
They came up to the house, Inuyasha sat outside the door staring at them walk up. Kagome looked to the ground her arms folded in front of her. "Hey you found your dog." Hojo cheerfully commented. Kagome blinked and looked up at Inuyasha and ran over to him. "What is it?" She asked. Inuyasha growled at Hojo and Kagome then turned around walking back to the house. Hojo blinked. "Not very friendly." He added.
Kagome said good bye to Hojo and walked into the house. She walked right to her room she had barely ate all week and her body was weakening. Kagome sighed and lay down on her bed. Inuyasha pushed the door open and walked in jumping up on the edge of the bed. Kagome looked back at him..
"When I see you… I feel like the human you is just going to image when you get into bed… But your always a bog, what can I do to break your spell Inuyasha." She sighed she though of the dog as Kunu and not Inuyasha.. Kagome sighed and looked away to the window and rolled over on her back Inuyasha wiggled up to her laying his head on her chest Kagome petted him sighing looking into his eyes seeing his human self instead of his dog form.
"I love you Inuyasha." She smiled combing her fingers through his fur. Inuyasha whined and licked his lips. Kagome smiled and looked back up to the roof sighing and thinking of what she could do.
The next day Kagome went out with Hojo like she had been doing. "Hojo, do you think it's normal to fall in love with someone writhen a month?" She asked swirling the ice in her drink with her straw. Hojo shrugged and looked up at her. "Why?" He questioned. Kagome looked out the window and sighed when Inuyasha caught her eye. His human form she got up and ran out side leaving Hojo clueless. Kagome looked around and sighed when Inuyasha sat at her feet.
Hojo came out of the restaurant and put his hand on her shoulder. "Kagome what is it?" He asked. Kagome sighed and patted Inuyasha on the head turning to Hojo. "Hojo I shouldn't be here." She smiled. Hojo blinked. "Why?" He was so confused. Kagome patted Inuyasha on the head again and looked down at him. "Because I'm in love with Inuyasha, not you I should be speeding time with him.." She smiled down at him. Inuyasha wagged his tail.
Hojo sighed. "I thought Inuyasha broke up with you?" He asked. Kagome shock her head. "Not exactly." She looked up at him and smiled starting to walk in the direction of the house. Hojo was left with no answer and totally confused not sure as to what in the world happened.
Kagome and Inuyasha went into her room Kagome had a handful of popcorn chicken in her hand and a plate full in her other. "If I can't have you as a person, then I can have you as a dog, to hell with the spell I can still love you as Inuyasha." She smiled throwing a popcorn chicken into his mouth.
Kagome sighed after eating supper and put her night cloths on Inuyasha had left the room a bit before and she was trying to get ready before he came but even thought he had already seen her. She still felt like he was just a dog maybe because he couldn't talk, and she wanted Inuyasha to hold her so bad. She missed him so much and she couldn't help but want to be with him.
Kagome yawned and looked out the door to Inuyasha wagging his tail playing with the cat down the hall. "Inuyasha come to bed." She called. Inuyasha ran down the hall and into the room Kagome shut the door and got into bed smiling at Inuyasha who had taken most of the bed. "I love you." She imagined it was her Inuyasha, her hanyou Inuyasha.
Inuyasha licked her face and wagged his tail back and forth in the bed. Kagome nuzzled into his fur as much as she could, he still smelled like him, he didn't smell like dog, he smelt like him. She smiled. "I really do love you, forever and always." She muttered just before slipping into sleep.
