Reediting… when I said I was changing all first person into 3rd person, this one of the chapters I meant. At the time I was working on Wanting, and I got ahead of myself. I also had to change some author notes seeing as I use to think You owe Me would end around its 20th chapter… boy was I wrong.
A/N Hey it's me, how's it going, I've been working on the plot for Wanting, probably the reason I haven't updated for awhile. I have everything planned out.
Chapter: 26, expelled
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha blah, blah, on with the story.
Kagome sat at the dark part of the hall waiting for her turn. Her mind was racing and she could feel her feet tapping silently on the floor. She was waiting for the administrator to get her fat ass over here so she could get it over with. There was 1 thing she tried to remember and it was, if she asked you who helped set up the party, don't rat out anyone.
She squished her two hands forcefully together trying desperately to think of what to say. It was pretty early when she had gotten caught. Someone told the dean that a couple of people were having a party upstairs, and when the dean of their dorm came to check it out She happened to be cleaning up the halls. It was about 5 in the morning, and for some reason she couldn't sleep. It was probably because Inuyasha was gone.
So Kagome decided to go talk to him, but when she realized that the hall was decked out with trash. Her mom-maid intuition kicked in. She had the overwhelming urge to clean up. So while she was picking up plastic cups and used condoms she got caught. She hadn't yet told them her name, they hadn't figured out where her dorm was. She felt pretty good till she got a slip that told her to report to the administrator's office and she told everything she knew. There was only one thing she hadn't told, and it was the names of the real party throwers.
The way she saw it, it was a win, win scenario, if she didn't tell, she'd get thrown out. If she told she'd get thrown out. She didn't want to go to this damn school anyway. She was more of a community college girl she told herself. Though she kept reassuring herself of this, her hands still shivered with nervousness. She felt like puking, she was thrown out of her trance when her phone rung for the third millionth time today. She thought about letting it ring again, but she thought answering would calm her nerves a bit.
She talked in a lower voice when she picked up. She thought it would mask her nerves. "Hello."
"Why do you sound like a man…?" The guy on the other line asked. She felt a bit of her nerves leave as she sat up in her seat. "So are you in trouble? Tell me what's going on?" He asked. She felt excitement roll through her. He was exactly the person she wanted to talk to.
She had to calm down a bit so she wouldn't sound too excited to talk to him."No," she said while clearing her throat. "I'm not in trouble yet, but I'm going to be if I don't give her a name."
He paused for a minute thinking over what she just said. He wasn't sure when or how she got in trouble, but she knew she was in trouble. Hell everyone knew she was in trouble. It was the hot topic spreading around the school now.
He sighed as he tried to get his thoughts in order. "Okay… Well tell her the whole thing was me… I'll take the blame…"
"How noble" She mumbled sarcastically, but Inuyasha still heard. It made him smile a bit before buckling his seat belt. She was about to mumble something else when she heard someone scream for the administrators office. It was muffled but even Inuyasha heard it.
"What was that?" He asked before sticking his key in the ignition.
"Ugh…I have no idea… but you know what I'll take the blame. When our two businesses merge one of us is going to need that diploma and I know you're going to want to bring home that bacon." None of them had really talked about the marriage thing. Inuyasha didn't want to admit he still didn't want to get married. He just wanted to be with her… he was wondering if that was too much to ask.
"No don't do that for me… I'm perfectly fine staying at home all day." He said while starting up the car and backing up from the parking lot. He knew she thought the marriage was still on, and he was actually willing to go with it just to be with her. He didn't want any more arguing, he decided last night when she was sleeping in his arms that that was really all that mattered… being with her.
"You would be perfectly fine with that…" she mumbled again, and he smiled at the tone of her voice. He also hadn't told her how great of a lay she was. Usually when he slept with girls at a party they woke up the next morning extremely attached and hanging on every single word he said. Then again Kagome wasn't just a girl, and it wasn't a one night stand. "Listen…" she said in all seriousness making him sit up in the driver's seat. "My parents are going to murder me… you won't find any evidence at the crime scene, but just know my mom did it with a gun…" she said while letting actual nervousness seep into the joke.
"Okay… well let's play a game…" He suggested making her frown completely.
"Inuyasha this isn't some joke… I don't want to play a damn game. How is playing a game going to stop my parents from strangling me to death." She put both fingers on her tempo and began massaging carefully. What was he some sort of idiot?
"Relax… relax it's not an actual game. It's just something that will help you calm down."
"Really well I'm more concerned about where I'm going to live. My parents are so not letting me back in the house after this…"
Inuyasha thought things through before smiling. He had an idea. "Okay well listen… I'll be your mom, and you be you. You can practice giving her the bad news." He said making her laugh sarcastically. Her fiancé was a complete idiot. "Come on Kagome it'll help trust me…"
"Fine… fine damn it… go ahead." He cleared his throat before sitting back in his seat.
"Hello…" Kagome's attention snapped back on the phone when she heard Inuyasha fake a high pitch timid voice. She felt a smile spread on her lips.
"Hey mom…" she said while trying desperately not to laugh out loud. He heard the humor in his voice and knew his plan was working.
"Hey, honey…" He said in that strange tone of voice. "How's it going at that huge prestigious university your father and I had to pay a lot of money so you can go to?" Kagome pushed the phone away from her lips so she could laugh out loud without him hearing, but of course he heard.
She tried to control her fits of laughter before getting back on the phone. "Oh mom… it's great… but I got kicked out…" she said in a melodramatic voice.
Inuyasha smiled while faking shock and terror. He stopped at yet another stop light before getting back on the phone. "YOU WHAT!" He screamed in that high pitch voice. Kagome began laughing hysterically on the phone… "Oh my god… wait until I tell your dad… you are getting it young lady… there he is now. Oh honey biscuit… you won't believe what Kagome did." Inuyasha said before pausing on the phone. "Hello…" He said coming back on the line with an unnecessarily low pitch voice.
"Okay… okay…" she said while covering her mouth. A few people began looking at her. "I get it… I get it… your killing me." He smiled contently in his seat. He seemed extremely happy that she was actually well… happy. "But that didn't calm my nerves at all…" She lied. "Now that makes me even more nervous… my mom's going to disown me."
He shrugged… "I'm not a miracle worker I'm just a guy." He said making her shake her head. "Don't worry too much… I'm sure you won't get kicked out. I've been in her office three times in only one semester and I'm still here." Kagome thought it over before smiling.
"Yeah but we all know you slept with her to get into the university. You're her little tool, where will she be without her midnight lay?" Inuyasha let his own smirk entice his features.
"Don't be jealous… maybe you should start sleeping with her too… then maybe you wouldn't be in this situation. Now who has the upper hand." She shrugged realizing he got her.
"You know that could actually work…" She said with mock excitement, "but sadly I look like shit… I'm having the worse hangover of my life. She probably won't accept my offer." Inuyasha rolled his eyes a bit, he was sure she still looked gorgeous, she always looked gorgeous. "Do me a favor… could you get Ayame to pack my bags… Supervise her. I don't want her stealing anything."
"Chin up… trust me you're making a big thing out of nothing. People throw parties all the time…"
"Sssh…" she said shushing him before he could continue. "Some ones coming out of her office… I'm about to die. If I never hear from you again… remember I…" Inuyasha felt his heart increase beating slightly. He knew what she was going to say, and he really wanted to hear her say it now that she wasn't drunk. "Remember I… I want my coffin to be lined with satin… nothing but the best." She said jokingly before hanging up. The phone was on the speaker as he pulled up to the gas station, but he just stared at it in utter shock. He hadn't realized how much he wanted to hear her say she loved him. He had built up unneeded tension that just sat in the car until he pulled up to the pump.
An older woman with her hair in a mass of aged curly hair put into a tight bun stood beside the thick door. She had a mass of papers in her hands. She knew she was going to call her name so she paused for a second.
She sat back in her seat in relaxation when the woman said someone else's name. She looked around the room waiting for someone to get up, but there was no one in the hall, but her. She looked straight at the older woman who was stomping towards her.
"Didn't you hear me call your name, why didn't you respond?" She barked while glaring at Kagome…she felt her stomach turn a little.
"I didn't hear you say my name." She mumbled silently while looking up at the woman. She looked back down at her sheet of paper before standing straight up.
"You're Kay-o-me Hag- u- washy… right?" Kagome sat up in her seat. No wonder why she didn't get up. She completely butchered her name.
"Yes…" she stood up while adjusting her blouse. "You missed pronounced it…" The woman nodded before turning away from her.
"Ah… that happens often. I'm horrible with names." She said while walking towards the doubled doors of the office. Kagome walked nervously into the door. She was expecting to see a large desk spread horizontally with a mean woman sitting behind it pretending she was busy, but instead the doors led to a long hallway and on either side of the hall were surrounding cubicles and doors. She could hear excessive talking going on, but there was more yelling then the norm of an office. The woman continued leading her through the hallway till they came to another enormously wide door at the center of the hall. She took a deep breath before knocking three times at the unusually wide doors in front of her and just waited.
"Come on in," Someone said from inside of the thick door. The woman who still hadn't bothered to learn her name stepped inside. "So you have Mrs. Higurashi with you." The woman asked. Kagome had yet to see her. The secretary who had led her here was blocking the dean.
"Yes I do…"
"Well then leave…" The dean said making the woman turn and exit the room. She closed the giant doors loudly behind them leaving Kagome alone with the administrator. Kagome turned realizing the dean was actually pretty young. She had straight short dark brown hair and she wore a woman's pant suit. She was actually extremely attractive; not at all what Kagome thought she'd look like. Her office was very large and telling by all the degrees she had, she was very educated. She stood up from her seat showing she was also in shape. She gestured for Kagome to take a seat. "Sorry for making you wait… oh and for my secretary. I'm planning on firing her; I just can't seem to let her go. She's been working here since my dad ran the school." Kagome smiled at her and took one of the chairs in front of her desk.
Inuyasha had lied to her. She wasn't mean or gruesome. She seemed completely calm and nice. It made her wonder if Inuyasha had actually slept with her to get out of all his trouble. It seemed possible all of a sudden. The dean sat down in her chair and grabbed a manila folder.
"Okay let's see Kagome Higurashi… you're the heir to their empire aren't you…" She said while smiling. Kagome nodded while the dean stood up and gave her a hand. "This is your first time being here isn't it?" She asked nicely while putting a hand out for her to shake. "It's very nice to meet you."
Kagome smiled while standing up to give her a hand. The woman seemed like she wanted to say something else but was stuck on something on Kagome's hand. "Wow… your ring… it's gorgeous… Are you married?" She asked while smiling up at her astonishingly.
"Um…no I'm engaged." Kagome said nonchalantly as she sat back in her seat. She thought the woman was going to move on after that, but instead she only smiled even wider.
"That's so exciting, to whom are you engaged to?" She sat down behind the desk waiting for Kagome to continue the conversation.
She felt her nerves disappear instantly and she smiled. "Ugh Inuyasha… he actually goes to this school too… our family…" she stopped talking when she saw the dean's smile disappear completely.
"You're engaged to Inuyasha, as in Inuyasha Takashi." Kagome paused as she waited for the woman to continue on. "He's been in my office countless times. I think I know who started this little party." She said while grabbing a pen and opening a new set of files.
Kagome felt her heart begin to race. "No… no… you got it all wrong. This time it was me, not him, he wasn't at school at the time, he was still at his house for Christmas break, so you can go ahead and pin this one on me." She said making the older woman stop writing.
"You" she said while laughing loudly."You don't seem like the type." Kagome narrowed her eyes, for some reason she actually felt a bit insulted. She was the type. How dare this woman say different? The dean looked at her before clearing her throat. "Okay…let's talk, woman to woman." She got out of her desk and sat on top of her desk crossing her legs. "How does it feel to be engaged?" Kagome was taken by surprise at the overall question. "Are you in love? How does sex feel? I know it's great he's a very, very handsome man, sometimes…." She closed her eyes and Kagome had a feeling of total discomfort wash over her.
"Sometimes you what?" She asked while standing up a bit appalled. She felt jealousy come over her and a bit of anger. What if it was true? what if Inuyasha really was involved with him?
"You know… sometimes I would love to tackle him down, he is attractive and rich. You should take it as a compliment." Kagome narrowed her eyes. She most defiantly did not take it as a compliment. It was extremely weird and off putting to think of a woman who was supposed to cause order to cause a sort of disarray. She would make sure Inuyasha never got in trouble.
"So tell me how does it feel to be engaged." Kagome felt like leaving the office, but thought against it.
Maybe all she had to do was answer the questions and she'd get off with a warning. "Um… it feels great I guess…" She mumbled.
"Come on its only you and me how does it really feel."She asked and Kagome sighed deeply.
"Really, really good."
"I've never been engaged, I came really close with this guy in college." She had a hand on her chin as if she was thinking back to a time so far away. "But it didn't work out…" She got up and headed to one of her many book cases, bended over and took out a wine bottle. She reached over and grabbed to glasses. "It's been a very long day, you want a glass?" Kagome stared in complete shock. She didn't even know what to say to that.
She poured the wine in both glasses anyway."So are you in love with him?" She asked passing Kagome the glass and taking off her high heels. "I know his parent's own the Takashi business… so it's probably not a real wedding… isn't it just business." She passed Kagome the glass. "I know how you feel. I had to take over my dad's school when he passed away so, you know, but you can still be in love with him. I'm in love with this school." Kagome grabbed hold of the wine glass staring down at it. How could she compare a school to a person?
"Oh no… I'm in love with him…" Kagome said as she sipped some of the wine.
"Oh well that's great… you're so very lucky. I remember one day he was sent to my office in the beginning of the year, he wanted to have some kind of schedule change…" She trailed off a bit as if she wanted to say something inappropriate.
"Yeah… he's always changing his schedule…" Kagome mumbled not knowing what to say about that.
Kagome sipped a bit more of the wine… "So how is he in bed…?" She choked on the red wine and spit out a large quantity of it on the desk.
"I'm so sorry… you took me by surprise…" Kagome said while taking a random file and drying some of the wine with it.
"Oh no it's fine… just don't… don't…. those files are really important… please don't." She snatched the papers from Kagome. "Please don't use them to clean up red wine.
"I'm so sorry… I'm an idiot…"
"Don't worry… I'll just clean this up… I'll have Inuyasha come in later today, and he can come in and straighten this all up. You can go…"
"Wait don't do that." Kagome said while getting up. She didn't want Inuyasha in here with her. What if in order to get her out of trouble he had to sleep with her.
"Trust me… I'm not going to do anything inappropriate." She reassured and Kagome smiled while turning around to head to the door. "I've tried… he won't touch me." Kagome paused for a second before turning around.
"You know... you can just expel me, I don't really mind."
"No don't worry your off the hook with this one." The woman said making Kagome nod and slowly walk out of the room.
