Oh Loving Hate, Oh Hating Love
Yay. Another chapter!! I wonder how I do it.. It's been very long since I last wrote something.. I really need to update more often. But its hard with school. I go to private school. Don't flame me for not updating. Alright, here goes. This was an idea I've had for a while now, and its spent a loooooong time in my brain kind of going off. And on. And off. And o- you get the picture. Enjoy!

Oh Loving Hate, Oh Hating Love
They slept that night under the stars in the light of the crescent moon. Inuyasha, however, took the flashlight from Kagome's giant yellow bag and kept reading after they all fell victim to the normal action of the night- sleeping. Inuyasha got to the very last page and finished the last paragraph, told by the narrator, and slammed the hard covers shut.
"What kind of ending is that?!?" he screamed into the night, waking the rest of the group.
"What are you screaming about, Inuyasha?" asked Kagome quietly, still half asleep. She was in the middle of a dream, and during which, would rather had not been awakened. It was a dream involving a demon, then a certain dog- eared hanyou rescued her from the brink of death by poisonous teeth, then a rather unpleasant digestion.
"The end of this damn book! Its not right! Everyone DIES!"
"Yeah. It's a tragedy, Inuyasha, not a comedy."
"Well.. Grr. I don't get it! Why do people write tragedies then?"
"Probably because they're depressed. Shakespeare wasn't really a very happy person throughout his life. There was so much wrong with it, im surprised he stayed sane." Kagome laid back down. "Go to bed. We can discuss it tomorrow morning."
"But everybody dies!"
"It tells you that in the beginning of the book! Remember? Two star-crossed lovers? Or did it slip your mind? GO TO BED!" Kagome was very cranky.
"Hmph." Inuyasha wasn't too happy either.
"Both of you, please be quiet. I would enjoy a good nights rest before having to deal with a giant boomerang in the morning. Thank you." We can all guess where this mumbled groan came from.
Everybody went to bed just a little disgruntled. Kagome never did get back to her dream, the one with the poisonous teeth.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
They awoke with the sun, which brought warmth for only about half an hour, which was the time it took, relatively, for Kagome to get up and boil the water to make everybody some ramen, then add the water to the cups. Inuyasha awoke to the smell of the pungent flavoring added to the noodles, and rose to get his food.
"Morning." Kagome dropped the chopsticks on the ground from the shock she got from him sneaking up on her.
"Hey. Ramen?"
"I believe you know the answer to that."
She forked over the cup. "There's another one if you want it, I made some extras this morning."
"Yah. So.. about the book."
"Oh please, lets not start that again, okay?"
"But.."
"Fine. Lets see. we'll do something to help you understand a little better, okay?"
"Whatever." He sat down and slurped his ramen. "So, I still don't get it."
"Basically, Shakespeare tells us that petty fights that nobody remembers shouldn't keep two families from being friends."
"You mean kind of like, how demons and humans are different but should be able to live together?"
"Inuyasha, that is the deepest thing I've heard you say in a while.. Yes. That's exactly what its like. See, you do understand." Kagome smiled at him and he put down his ramen. They stared deeply into each other's eyes for a period of time that seemed like an eternity. Their faces got a tad closer ever second that went by, but fell out of the trance right when they saw what was happening. Kagome turned to the side, blushing furiously. Inuyasha did the same.
"Sorry.."
"No, don't be. Thanks for the compliment," Inuyasha thought for a second. "It makes a lot of sense, that Shakespeare guy knows what he's talking about."
"That's why he's one of the greatest playwrights in history."
"Yeah." There was a long pause.
"Okay, I guess I know what we can do. We'll let the book fall open at any given point, and I'll guide you through that scene, okay? We'll act it out."
"Sounds pretty safe to me," he replied, crossing his arms.
"Okay." She picked up the copy of the tragedy and let it fall from her hands. The book opened and the light pages fluttered in the morning breeze. The sun was blocked out by threatening clouds that had come out of nowhere. The two leaned down on their knees to see where the pages had fallen.
What they saw shocked them. Fate was cruel.
