16 Reviews, I'm so happy! Though I feel really bad for not updating sooner. I could give you a list of excuses but, I won't. After this I might write a one-shot I just thought of, not sure. Well, on with the story.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inu Yasha.
Silent Is Always Better
= = Chapter 3 = =
A new order in Kagome's Book. Sit, Stay, Go.
'The whole day by myself. What should I do? Homework or, lay around the house?' Kagome pondered with herself, searching for the answer. Exactly two seconds later a smile appeared on her features as she stated her answer. 'Lay around, duh.' With that she quickly made her way to her stairs, leaving the piles of homework behind her. 'I can do that tomorrow……. Maybe.' She told herself as she pushed her body up the stairs.
Getting up the stairs in her agonizing slow pace got her bored, quickly. She turned her head to the right, quietly look at the family pictures dangling from the wall. Every few seconds stopping to look at a important picture or two. She placed a hand on the wall and made it slide as she made her way up to the top. The slightly rough texture creating friction between her hand and the wall.
Finally making her way to the top, with a big smile intact, she made her way to her bedroom door. Opening the white painted door and stepping into her room, leaving a creak open after slightly pushing it back towards the doors frame.
Kagome quickly made her way towards her bed and, without hesitation, fell directly on the soft piece of furniture. Letting her muscles relax, taking in deep soft breathes, her mouth partly opened. Her eyelids fluttering, battling to keep open or just close all together.
A knock on her window made the decision to open her eyes, coming face to face with the white ceiling above her. 'Kami-sama, please say that was my imagination.' Kagome pleaded mentally. Kagome stood still, unmoving, waiting to see if she heard another….. 'knock knock.' And there it was, another knock.
Kagome mentally cursed as she turned her head over towards the window to see a white headed hanyou, asking for permission in her room.
Kagome froze. She was scared, real scared. She wasn't ready for this, not yet.
Her eyes widened, glazing over like glass, her bottom lip slightly trembling. Her breathing becoming shorter, she had to remind her heart to beat a few times. Though, towards her confusion and sadness, his facial expression wasn't that of angry or annoyed. It was that same sad expression he had before, she hated that expression. She would rather him be angry at her, or at least pretend to. But know, that just had to be to much to ask for in this situation.
Taking a few deep breathes, she stood up. Making her way slowly towards her window, almost loosing her balance a few times in the process. Her now pale hands reaching for the window latch, to unlock it. Coming in contact with the latch, her hands rested on it, uncertainty building inside her.
'Should I? What does he want? What's going to happen? Kami-sama please… What should I do?' Another knock on the window caused her to look up, locking eyes with the hanyou. Kagome stared into the yellow orbs, in a trance, flashbacks of them running in her mind. She quickly broke eye contact. The past is the past, everything is different now.
She gulped, her uncertainty showing still, she unlocked the window and stepped back. Allowing the hanyou to enter. He mumbled a small 'thanks' before fully stepping in.
Inu Yasha looked at the woman before him, he could tell she was scared. He could smell it. He came here to get something, getting it also meant no more Kagome but, she would be better off anyways. 'She'll be safe here. Being around me would only cause her pain.'
"Kagome…. I need something…. From you." He began, having a hard time choosing the right words.
'He needs something? What?' Kagome just gave a slight nod, telling him to go on.
After receiving the nod from Kagome his confidence during this situation began to rise. "We need the jewel shards, Kagome. We… need yours." He stated, his voice still wavering slightly.
'The jewel shard? Jewel shard?!?! That's all. After all he has put me through and he still only cares about the shards!' Kagome mentally screamed. Hot tears of anger and pain sliding down her cheeks. Inu Yasha winced at the site of her crying, making no move to comfort her, though. 'Fine, he wants to act like nothing happened, so can I.' Her facial expression going from angered and pained to slight doubt. 'At least until I cool off. I guess I have no choice….'
Kagome put on a fake pouting face and stomped her way towards her closet, pulling out a yellow backpack.
Inu Yasha looked at her, dumbfounded. "K-Kagome? Are you coming? You Can't!" He yelled at her, his arrogant voice ringing through her ears. 'And why not?' She wanted to scream back, but she couldn't. So she settled on throwing a book in his face, it hit its mark.
She quickly stuffed clothing into the yellow bag, hair essentials and, tooth brush and tooth paste. She quickly made her way down to the kitchen, as she began to pull out food, Inu Yasha made his entrance.
"Kagome, you can't come! It's to dangerous, it's gotten harder since you been there. I said n-" His rampage was caught off when he saw her face. It was still pained, she was forcing herself to go. Why? Why was she purposely putting herself in pain just to go and search for shards? He knew when he stood no match, she was going. And that's the end of it. Please with him shutting up, she continued to pack.
After gathering the last of the food and placing it in her backpack, they made their way towards the well. As Inu Yasha leaped up onto the brim of the well, he stopped and turned to face Kagome. "Kagome, why haven't you said a word to me?" He stated in his normal annoyed voice. Kagome, oblivious to what to say, quickly slammed her backpack into him causing him to fall into the well. Kagome jumping in directly after him.
How was she suppose to tell him?
A/N: This has to be the worst chapter I written. But I'm on writers block so hey, deal with it. ^_^
