Under the Pale
Autumn Moon
---
Inuyasha was lead to his room by
some servants and was told that breakfast would be served in a few
hours. He sat on the bed and just looked out the window, sighing
occasionally and feeling a sense of longing still bubbling in his
insides.
He flopped down on the bed staring at the ceiling for
a while before drifting off into an uneasy sleep.
About half
an hour later, a sound awoke him, Inuyasha had always been known for
his keen sense of smell, hearing, and sight, but this sound was
something he'd never heard before.
He cracked open an eye to
peer around the darkened room.
Nothing.
He grunted and
turned over in his bed.
"Good morning!"
Inuyasha's
eyes snapped wide open as he stared in disbelief at this girl that
was sitting cross-legged on his bed. Alarmed he scurried backwards
successfully knocking himself out of bed.
"Wha...What the
fuck are you doing in my room? And my bed!" Inu-
yasha stood wide-eyed at the girl who blinked in confusion.
"You
can see me?" she asked softly, but Inuyasha's good hearing
picked it up and he snarled.
"Yes! Only someone
totally blind couldn't see you, you're sitting on my bed, you were
right in front of my face! What the hell are you doing in my
room?"
The girl smiled and stood, as if she were a
fluid she jumped off his bed and stood in front of the boy who sat
staring in disbelief.
"This is my room, I don't know what
you're doing in here, but I've lived here for a long time."
"What
the hell, this is the room Sango gave me!" Inuyasha snarled,
growing impatient with the girl by the second.
"Sango
doesn't know I live here," the girl sniffed and turned her head
away.
"What the hell, you've been living here and no one
knows? What kind of drugs are these people using, better yet, what
kind of drugs are you using?"
The girl stuck her tongue
out at him and flopped down onto his bed, "I don't know, I've
never gotten the proper drug education, there all the same to
me."
"So you do use drugs?"
"No!
I'm just saying...never mind...I just don't use drugs,
ok?"
"Whatever, get out of my room."
"I
thought I just explained that I wasn't leaving! And that it's my
room!"
"Well I like this room, and I've already
unpacked so, yeah!" Inuyasha raised a hand to threaten her but
she seemed unfazed.
"Oh yes it should be so hard to
unpack two suitcases," she snapped, closing her eyes and shaking
her head as if she pitied him.
"Well you've bitched me
enough, bitch, I'm telling Sango that she has a little idiot living
in her house without her knowledge."
"Go ahead,
she'll think you're crazy."
"What?" Inuyasha
turned around from the door he was about to open but the girl was
gone, he was alone in the room.
Inuyasha sat down
loudly in a chair next to Sango, much to her pestering, she kept
talking about how she didn't want the cook to make up some excuse as
to how he could sit near her.
Miroku, the cook, came strolling
in with a huge irritated looking grin and set two plates covered by
the silver lids onto the table, he bowed slightly and left the room
to grab the other food entries.
Sango sighed and picked up her
plate, she promptly grabbed Inuyasha's and switched them, as she
glanced at his confused look she whispered, "You'll
see."
Inuyasha shrugged it off and awaited the cook to
come back.
He was faintly aware of people talking around him,
but his mind kept drifting back to that girl in his room, where the
hell did she go, and why was she such a bitch? She pissed him off a
lot.
You could even say he hated her, even if he barely knew
her.
"Inuyasha!" Inuyasha jumped and looked
guiltily at his cousin, "are you even listening?"
"Sorry,
still a little tired, ya know?" Inuyasha lied with the lamest
excuse, but Sango fell for it and nodded.
Inuyasha lifted up
his plate to reveal a bowl shaped like a heart and heart shaped
pancakes, "What. The. Hell?"
Sango looked up from
her oatmeal and smirked, "That's just Miroku confessing his
undying love."
"To me?"
"No, I
switched the plates, duh, Miroku is anything but a crooked."
"Err,
ok," Inuyasha shrugged and started to walk upstairs, he was
going to ask Sango about the girl in his room but decided against it,
"I'll be upstairs if you need me for anything."
Sango
nodded and continued to eat her oatmeal.
