Disclaimer: *sigh* once again, don't own Inuyasha and co. wish I did
though...
Hello everyone! I'm back! ^_^ since I'm free today I thought I'd type up my newest chapter of this fic! By the way, since I post my fics at weird times, if anyone wants to join the update list, go to my bio.
Now, onto the story:
Hurt - Chapter 12
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The ride home in his car was ridden in complete silence. Inuyasha was in the passenger seat with his arms folded over his chest, and Kagome was huddled in the corner in the back.
He decided to break the ice first. "Kagome, you sure you're okay?" He knew it was a stupid question, but he thought she was a little bit too quiet.
"Huh?...oh, I'm okay." She muttered, as she wrapped the thick, leather jacket around her tightly and lowered her lids. All she wanted now was some rest.
Inuyasha settled back into his seat, ignoring the driver's sly looks signalled at him. "Just drive, James."
And until they parked in the lot again, Kagome just snoozed in the comfortable backseat. Inuyasha stepped out of the vehicle and tapped on her window. It was tinted, so he couldn't see what she was doing. He reached for the handle, and when Inuyasha pulled the door open Kagome toppled out on top of him, still asleep.
Inuyasha blushed immediately. "Kag...Kagome, what are you doing?" He untangled her hands from around his thighs, and glared at James when Inuyasha noticed him smirking.
"Don't...don't go...daddy..." She managed to whisper out, and she finally let go of surprised Inuyasha's legs. "...please..."
Now what was Inuyasha supposed to do? Wake the girl up? What else was there to do? Sighing, he shook Kagome's shoulders gently. "Kagome, get up, we're here."
"Don't want to get up...there's no school today..." She managed to stutter out before snapping her eyes open. "What? Inuyasha? This..."
Inuyasha chuckled. "It's heaven, Kagome. No, we're back. Come on, it's late."
She nodded and took his offering hand. Together they walked back towards the sea of trailers, Kagome slightly leaning on Inuyasha for support. She normally would have never done something as outrages as that, but she was still half-asleep.
They walked up towards the 'Kagome Higurashi' star, and Inuyasha was searching for the keys, when he discovered her door was unlocked. 'Still this forgetful...' He thought to himself with a smirk.
As soon as he pushed the door open, and flicked the lights on, they both immediately noticed the disaster.
Her desk was knocked over, and all her clothes were spread everywhere, including her undergarments. Most of her own makeup was smashed onto the floor, powder and lipstick smudged into the carpet. Not to mention the light bulbs framing her makeup counter were all smashed.
To make matters worse, in bright purple graffiti scribbling on the trailer wall was, 'FUCK YOU! EVERYONE HATES YOU!' The now empty can was discarded onto the bed, getting ink on her sheets.
Kagome covered her face with her hands, and fell down to her knees. "Wha - who would do...this?"
"...Kikyou." Mumbled Inuyasha, gripping a clawed fist. When he was thinking up plots to get Kikyou back, he turned around and acknowledged the disgusted look on Kagome's face.
In her hand she was holding a broken beaded rosary, the one Inuyasha always wore, but some beads have already slipped off. "Inuyasha...is this yours?"
As a natural reaction, Inuyasha felt around his neck.
Nothing.
The necklace he had always worn was somehow in Kagome's trailer. He couldn't possibly think of the last time he took that rosary off, so how...?
When he looked back at Kagome she was looking down at her carpet. Inuyasha followed the gaze, and it led him to muddy footprints. The mud from the previous night's rain gathered outside must have been caught on this person's shoes. And from the outline of it, it was not a woman's prints.
"I...Inuyasha?" Kagome asked, looking up at him with hopeful eyes. She was praying to all the gods that the one who did this wasn't him; she wouldn't know what to do if it was.
"Kagome, I didn't! Look yourself!" He insisted, raising his foot to show her the sole of his expensive new shoes.
There it was, almost the identical print as on her floor, not hard to distinguish with the recognisable lines. There were also chunks of mud wedged between the grooves. Kagome looked up at him, and stared deeply in his gold eyes. "Please tell me you didn't..."
"I swear on my life, Kagome. I didn't - " He insisted, waving his arms in the air, trying to prove his point.
"Then what were you doing in my room the night I was in the bath? I thought something was fishy, but I never thought you'd be planning something like this...Tell me Inuyasha, honestly, what were you doing that night?" Kagome interrupted, scrounging around her room, gathering her private clothing.
"Kagome...I..." Inuyasha strived for an answer, but it was hard at that tense second. He knew for a fact he didn't do it, but he had no proof. "...I didn't do it!"
He walked up to her slowly, looking deeply into her eyes; Kagome was also backing away at each step he took forward. "I didn't...I promise."
Kagome stuttered nervously. Who was she to believe? How come all the men in this business had one huge drawback to them? Kouga a rapist, Hojo a cheater, now Inuyasha a stalker/liar? She didn't know whom to believe anymore, and she felt a migraine coming on. "Inuyasha, please...get out."
Inuyasha was taken. "What? But do you believe me? I'm telling you Kagome, I didn't do it!" He confessed, heading towards the door.
Kagome covered her head with her hand. "I...I don't know anymore. I want to believe you, Inuyasha...but I can't, I'm sorry...now please leave, I want some rest."
"I - " Inuyasha yelled, only to be cut off by Kagome's screech.
"Get out, Inuyasha!!!" Kagome shook her hands in the air angrily, pointing to the door. Now this was a strange déjà vu...
Not saying a word, Inuyasha made his way out the door, closing it quietly. When he shut the door, his heart bled when he heard Kagome sobbing quietly.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
"Kikyou! Explain to me RIGHT now what you did yesterday!" Inuyasha demanded after seeing the evil bitch lounging around on set the next morning sipping her coffee.
Kikyou looked startled. "What are you talking about?"
"Don't play dumb with me, 'fess up. I know you messed up Kagome's trailer last night and dressed it up like I did it!" Inuyasha hollered in her face.
Kikyou stirred her coffee slightly. "I don't know what you're talking about, but if that really did happen to that bitch, then she deserved it."
Inuyasha couldn't reply to that, he had no proof. He was going to prove his own innocence if it killed him. "Then, Kikyou, would you mind telling me what you DID do last night?"
"Oh? I was out getting a manicure and facial. Even call them if you don't believe me." She replied casually, taking another sip of her drink. The coffee now starting to piss him off, Inuyasha knocked it out of her hands, splattering it all over the floor. He grabbed the two handles of the chair she was sitting on, and hovered over her.
"Kikyou, tell me the goddamned truth! It was the same prank you planned, so you must know something about it!" Inuyasha hissed between clenched teeth.
"Feisty, now? Are we?" Kikyou whispered seductively. She grabbed his face and brought it down to her lips. Inuyasha pushed away, and started cursing.
"Who asked you to do that? I was asking you a question!" Growled Inuyasha.
Kikyou looked surprised. "Inu baby, I thought you used to like to do that sort of stuff! Want to come over tonight to prove me wro - ?"
"No!" Scolded Inuyasha, steaming. "Do you know anything about it or not?"
Kikyou smiled. "Of course not..."
"Okay then, I will be taking my leave." Announced Inuyasha, trying to get as far away from her as possible. "Oh, and Kikyou?" He asked, turning back around to face her.
"Yes?" She asked, looking up with a grin.
"It's over."
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Kagome could have sworn she heard a screech from somewhere, but chose to ignore it.
She wasn't needed on set today, so she was busy cleaning up the mess in her room. The sheets were taken to dry cleaning, where the old lady gave her looks when Kagome showed her the white-turned-purple sheets. The smashed stuff would just need to be replaced and her wall painted.
When Kagome had gone out to go shopping for new light bulbs and makeup, she had to misfortune of running into both Kouga and Hojo. Kouga apparently was ordering something at the food truck, where Hojo was serving.
They spotted her immediately, and both raced to greet her, as if all that happened that night hadn't occurred at all.
Hojo rushed up to her with a plate of bacon and eggs. "Would you like breakfast, Kagome?"
Then Kouga butted in. "Why the hell are you talking to my woman, servant?"
Then Hojo. "Your woman? If I remember accurately, you guys have never even gone out together before, and when was I your servant, you low-class actor?"
Then Kouga. "We have gone out, and had some heavy action in the backseat. Jealous? Kagome was about to interrupt, but she had no time. "By the way, I'd rather be a low-class actor, than some little gapper boy."
The conversation carried on and on, until they both failed to realise Kagome was there, and started physically fighting. Ignoring the children, Kagome just proceeded along with her day out.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Inuyasha rubbed his sore neck at the end of the shoot. He took in a deep, cleansing breath when he left the warehouse, and gazed up at the stars. After Kikyou had given him a beating, Sesshoumaru chose to torture him also, forcing him to redo the scene over and over, so much that if he heard it one more time, he would literally go insane.
Inuyasha walked away, and on his way back he noticed another person walking into the lot. It was who else than Kagome holding a plastic bag. She seemed to know of his presence, but chose to pretend she didn't. Kagome walked by with her nose in the air, not giving him a second glance.
"Kagome! Wait up!" Screamed Inuyasha. He started to run, but unfortunately, so had she. "Kagome, wait! I want to explain!"
She stopped dead in her tracks and pivoted around. "So? Explain."
Inuyasha tugged at his shirt. "Errr...umm...I can't quite explain yet, but I just want to talk to you."
"I don't want to talk." She snapped, and turned back around. "Good night."
Before he would let Kagome get away with it, he grabbed her wrist and whipped her back to face him. "Listen, Kagome. It's rude to not listen when someone's talking to you."
"I'm listening...so?" Kagome spat out, looking disinterested and still avoiding eye contact with him. She was afraid she would be lost again in his eyes.
"I broke up with Kikyou." Inuyasha insisted, grabbing her hands. "For you."
Kagome just stood there, speechless. "Wha - ? But, did she do it?"
"Keh! She said she didn't, but I think she did. Who else could it be?" He answered, catching notice of her avoiding his eye contact. Kagome seemed pleased, but didn't show it through body language.
"I don't really care anymore. I'm sad to hear you guys broke up, but it has nothing to do with me. Happens everyday in Hollywood, those celebrity couples." Kagome informed him, pulling away from his grasp and once again turning away to leave.
Inuyasha was stunned. "What do you mean? I broke up with that bitch so we could be together! Of course it's about you!!!"
"Sure, it's about me. But have you considered my feelings?" Kagome yelled at him, dropping her bag in complete frustration. "There's a reason why I dislike dating people from this industry so much, and I have two good living examples to prove it. How am I supposed to know you won't leave me for some other girl who comes walking around, one who's better looking, one who's just bet..."
Before she could finish, she realised she was now talking mush, and she quickly paused. "Inuyasha...it hurts. It hurts to be insulted so much, it hurts to be dumped, and most of all, it hurts to have that written about me. No matter who wrote it..."
Before she could finish her mushy talk, Inuyasha had approached her, and wrapped his manly arms around her. "I know...I know it hurts, because I had it done to me too." He tightened his grip when he smelt Kagome's tears.
Kagome had never been one to cry that often. In fact, she almost never cried before this whole movie thing came along. She was always jolly and cheerful, always smiling. But now all the frustrations, all the pain, was comforted by his warm embrace.
Inuyasha didn't want to part the hug, but it was getting late, and not to mention cold. He gently pulled her away from his chest, and said. "Kagome, it's getting late. I'll walk you back to your trailer..."
At first Kagome refused to leave his loving arms, but eventually she nodded and gave in. "Oh, alright."
He smirked, and together they made their way back towards Kagome's trailer, which happened to be quite the distance away. She was leaning in the crook of his neck, and one of his arms was on her shoulder.
A mysterious voice shook the air and immediately Inuyasha and Kagome both heard it.
"Ha...man, you'll never guess guess *hic* what I did yesterday." Came a stumbled voice from around a corner.
Inuyasha instantly pushed Kagome and himself to a nearby trailer, placing their backs on the cold wall. He brought a finger to his lips, shushing Kagome so they could listen to the conversation. From what they could tell it was a male's voice. But it wasn't over yet.
"Yea? What'd ya do?" Asked the other one, apparently a guy as well. The two voices sounded awfully familiar.
The first man laughed. "Ok, I hired this guy, right? *hic* and I...I told him to trash this girl's trailer, right? And make it look like...like a...um somebody else did it."
Obviously the person talking was drunk. And before she had time to figure it out, the second voice came again.
"You hate her or something?"
The drunken man chuckled. "Nah. She's hot. I think she's got the hots for me too, just another guy getting in the way."
"I do hope you aren't talking about Kagome." Interrupted the other man, he sounded a little drunk, but not as much as the other.
"So what if I - "
Before he could finish his phrase, Inuyasha stepped out from behind the shadows, and stormed up to the man, punching him hard in the face. Kagome could have sworn she heard a nose crack.
Kagome rounded the bend also, and noted the guy passed out on the ground was Kouga! The other man appeared to be Hojo, but he had long run away. Whisky bottles lay everywhere, the two men must have made up and had a drink or two, or in Kouga's case, the whole bottle.
"Keh! Wimpy wolf, didn't know you'd even stoop so low." Inuyasha stepped on Kouga's stomach, hard with his foot, making the man on the ground wheeze. "And if you ever do anything like that to Kagome again, it'll be worse!" Now if only he knew how that bastard managed to steal his rosary...
Inuyasha turned around, ignoring the coughs and wheezes of Kouga, almost passed out on the concrete. When he caught sight of Kagome, he blushed, but scoffed anyways. "Keh! I told you it wasn't me."
Kagome smiled. "Okay, okay. I know. Don't rub it in." She smirked and turned her back to him, and started pacing away, sort of in a jog.
"Oi! Kagome! Wait up wench!" Inuyasha yelled, speeding up to catch up to her. When he did, she was already standing at the door of her trailer. The dim light managed to hide the redness in her cheeks.
"Um...thanks for walking me back. Good nig - "
Kagome couldn't finish because Inuyasha had caught his hands around her waist, and pulled her to him. She tumbled into Inuyasha's front, and before she could protest he had leaned down, and pressed his lips to hers.
Deciding not to object, Kagome just gave in to the passion. 'Hmmmm...lemon pie is good...' She thought dreamily, just completely relaxing into the kiss.
A while later, they slowly parted, not for one second breaking their eye contact.
Inuyasha grinned. "Yea, well, good night." He said, waving his hands. He had wanted to keep going, but he felt as if he was about to fall asleep. Last night he had gotten three hours, if he was lucky.
Just when he turned around to leave, Kagome grabbed his sleeve and flipped him around to face her. Pulling down at his collar so they were face-to- face again,
Kagome aggressively sprang at his delicious lips again, this time sticking in her tongue.
Inuyasha was surprised by this sudden action, but he got used to it...soon Kagome pushed away, and walked up the steps of her trailer, giggling to herself at the disappointed look on his adorable face.
"That's my apology." She smiled and closed the door behind her.
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Hehehe ^_^ pointless fluff! Who doesn't love that? Now don't come asking HOW Kouga managed to get Inuyasha's rosary, but that was the only way I could get Kagome angry with him! ^_^ Let's just say Kouga hired a professional...yea, that's it.
Thanks again to all my wonderful reviewers, remember, it's you who encourage me to type this chapter!
Hope everyone enjoyed that cute bit of fluff! ^_^ more should come in the next chapter!
Review if you want more chapters! ^_^

Hello everyone! I'm back! ^_^ since I'm free today I thought I'd type up my newest chapter of this fic! By the way, since I post my fics at weird times, if anyone wants to join the update list, go to my bio.
Now, onto the story:
Hurt - Chapter 12
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
The ride home in his car was ridden in complete silence. Inuyasha was in the passenger seat with his arms folded over his chest, and Kagome was huddled in the corner in the back.
He decided to break the ice first. "Kagome, you sure you're okay?" He knew it was a stupid question, but he thought she was a little bit too quiet.
"Huh?...oh, I'm okay." She muttered, as she wrapped the thick, leather jacket around her tightly and lowered her lids. All she wanted now was some rest.
Inuyasha settled back into his seat, ignoring the driver's sly looks signalled at him. "Just drive, James."
And until they parked in the lot again, Kagome just snoozed in the comfortable backseat. Inuyasha stepped out of the vehicle and tapped on her window. It was tinted, so he couldn't see what she was doing. He reached for the handle, and when Inuyasha pulled the door open Kagome toppled out on top of him, still asleep.
Inuyasha blushed immediately. "Kag...Kagome, what are you doing?" He untangled her hands from around his thighs, and glared at James when Inuyasha noticed him smirking.

Now what was Inuyasha supposed to do? Wake the girl up? What else was there to do? Sighing, he shook Kagome's shoulders gently. "Kagome, get up, we're here."
"Don't want to get up...there's no school today..." She managed to stutter out before snapping her eyes open. "What? Inuyasha? This..."
Inuyasha chuckled. "It's heaven, Kagome. No, we're back. Come on, it's late."
She nodded and took his offering hand. Together they walked back towards the sea of trailers, Kagome slightly leaning on Inuyasha for support. She normally would have never done something as outrages as that, but she was still half-asleep.
They walked up towards the 'Kagome Higurashi' star, and Inuyasha was searching for the keys, when he discovered her door was unlocked. 'Still this forgetful...' He thought to himself with a smirk.
As soon as he pushed the door open, and flicked the lights on, they both immediately noticed the disaster.
Her desk was knocked over, and all her clothes were spread everywhere, including her undergarments. Most of her own makeup was smashed onto the floor, powder and lipstick smudged into the carpet. Not to mention the light bulbs framing her makeup counter were all smashed.
To make matters worse, in bright purple graffiti scribbling on the trailer wall was, 'FUCK YOU! EVERYONE HATES YOU!' The now empty can was discarded onto the bed, getting ink on her sheets.
Kagome covered her face with her hands, and fell down to her knees. "Wha - who would do...this?"
"...Kikyou." Mumbled Inuyasha, gripping a clawed fist. When he was thinking up plots to get Kikyou back, he turned around and acknowledged the disgusted look on Kagome's face.
In her hand she was holding a broken beaded rosary, the one Inuyasha always wore, but some beads have already slipped off. "Inuyasha...is this yours?"
As a natural reaction, Inuyasha felt around his neck.
Nothing.
The necklace he had always worn was somehow in Kagome's trailer. He couldn't possibly think of the last time he took that rosary off, so how...?
When he looked back at Kagome she was looking down at her carpet. Inuyasha followed the gaze, and it led him to muddy footprints. The mud from the previous night's rain gathered outside must have been caught on this person's shoes. And from the outline of it, it was not a woman's prints.
"I...Inuyasha?" Kagome asked, looking up at him with hopeful eyes. She was praying to all the gods that the one who did this wasn't him; she wouldn't know what to do if it was.
"Kagome, I didn't! Look yourself!" He insisted, raising his foot to show her the sole of his expensive new shoes.
There it was, almost the identical print as on her floor, not hard to distinguish with the recognisable lines. There were also chunks of mud wedged between the grooves. Kagome looked up at him, and stared deeply in his gold eyes. "Please tell me you didn't..."

Kagome stuttered nervously. Who was she to believe? How come all the men in this business had one huge drawback to them? Kouga a rapist, Hojo a cheater, now Inuyasha a stalker/liar? She didn't know whom to believe anymore, and she felt a migraine coming on. "Inuyasha, please...get out."
Inuyasha was taken. "What? But do you believe me? I'm telling you Kagome, I didn't do it!" He confessed, heading towards the door.

"Sure, it's about me. But have you considered my feelings?" Kagome yelled at him, dropping her bag in complete frustration. "There's a reason why I dislike dating people from this industry so much, and I have two good living examples to prove it. How am I supposed to know you won't leave me for some other girl who comes walking around, one who's better looking, one who's just bet..."
Before she could finish, she realised she was now talking mush, and she quickly paused. "Inuyasha...it hurts. It hurts to be insulted so much, it hurts to be dumped, and most of all, it hurts to have that written about me. No matter who wrote it..."
Before she could finish her mushy talk, Inuyasha had approached her, and wrapped his manly arms around her. "I know...I know it hurts, because I had it done to me too." He tightened his grip when he smelt Kagome's tears.

Kagome rounded the bend also, and noted the guy passed out on the ground was Kouga! The other man appeared to be Hojo, but he had long run away. Whisky bottles lay everywhere, the two men must have made up and had a drink or two, or in Kouga's case, the whole bottle.
"Keh! Wimpy wolf, didn't know you'd even stoop so low." Inuyasha stepped on Kouga's stomach, hard with his foot, making the man on the ground wheeze. "And if you ever do anything like that to Kagome again, it'll be worse!" Now if only he knew how that bastard managed to steal his rosary...
Inuyasha turned around, ignoring the coughs and wheezes of Kouga, almost passed out on the concrete. When he caught sight of Kagome, he blushed, but scoffed anyways. "Keh! I told you it wasn't me."
Kagome smiled. "Okay, okay. I know. Don't rub it in." She smirked and turned her back to him, and started pacing away, sort of in a jog.
"Oi! Kagome! Wait up wench!" Inuyasha yelled, speeding up to catch up to her. When he did, she was already standing at the door of her trailer. The dim light managed to hide the redness in her cheeks.
"Um...thanks for walking me back. Good nig - "
Kagome couldn't finish because Inuyasha had caught his hands around her waist, and pulled her to him. She tumbled into Inuyasha's front, and before she could protest he had leaned down, and pressed his lips to hers.
Deciding not to object, Kagome just gave in to the passion. 'Hmmmm...lemon pie is good...' She thought dreamily, just completely relaxing into the kiss.
A while later, they slowly parted, not for one second breaking their eye contact.
Inuyasha grinned. "Yea, well, good night." He said, waving his hands. He had wanted to keep going, but he felt as if he was about to fall asleep. Last night he had gotten three hours, if he was lucky.
Just when he turned around to leave, Kagome grabbed his sleeve and flipped him around to face her. Pulling down at his collar so they were face-to- face again,
Kagome aggressively sprang at his delicious lips again, this time sticking in her tongue.
Inuyasha was surprised by this sudden action, but he got used to it...soon Kagome pushed away, and walked up the steps of her trailer, giggling to herself at the disappointed look on his adorable face.
"That's my apology." She smiled and closed the door behind her.
