I feel so guilty for leaving everybody there. Sorry, school started. You
know how those things are. Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.
Old Fashioned Love Triangle - Second Chances and Eight Year Old Ninjas
Kagome gawked at the adolecsent boy before shaking her head back into reality. Hojo simply smiled at his classmate.
"Hey Kagome! I thought i'd stop by and check on you. Last time I stopped by, your grandfather told me you had dysentery and couldn't see anyone." Kagome's cheeks went ablaze. Her grandfather's stories were getting more and more out of control everytime she left. "The real reason I came by was to see if you were up for a night at the festival.." Kagome brushed a hand up her arm. She always tried not to fidgit when she got nervous.
"Wasn't the festival last night?"
"Yes. It lasts for three days and three nights."
"Oh. Well, that's a really nice thing to ask but..."
"You're still ill?"
"Heaven's no! It's just that I.."
"It's me, isn't it? I shouldn't have bothered you after you just regained your health."
"Hojo, it's not that either. See, I just had a fight with this guy and I.."
"There's another guy?! Kagome, you should've told me sooner! If I had known about this guy -"
"You would've left her alone? HA!" Kagome whirled around to find a red kimono clad Inuyasha standing protectively behind her. When had he shown up?! His expression was set with jealous emotion. Kagome slowly tilted her head back towards Hojo, who could only stare at the thing before him.
"INUYASHA!"
"Kagome, is this the guy you were talking about? What are those things on his head?" Kagome groaned in annoyance. Guys were so blunt- skulled when it came to situations like this.
"What do they look like?!" Kagome gave a little nudge with her left hip and gently pushed him from the conversation. She threw in a small laugh.
"No. This isn't the guy I was talking about -" Inuyasha tried to push himself back into the confabulation.
"There's more than one?!" Kagome pulled her palm over the hanyou's face and then proceeded to shove him out of the talk fest. Her face was pasted with exasperation.
"Hush, Inuyasha....and quit interrupting! No, this isn't the guy, and those are ears on his head. You see, Inuyasha is an actor. A bad actor, but an actor. And his most recent part is that of a dog youkai. He simply forgot to change out of costume." Inuyasha rolled his amber eyes. She was just as bad at making stories up as her grandfather was.
"Oh! A true thespian indeed. I'll leave you two be. See you later Kagome! And it was nice meeting you Inuyasha!" Hojo gave a wave and a smile and headed towards the shrine's main entrance.
"What an idiot." Hojo's hearing caught the slight mumble.
"Did you say something Inuyasha?"
"Yea! I said-" Kagome slung a hand over Inuyasha's mouth.
"He said you're quite the intellect." Hojo continued to walk out the entrance.
"That isn't what I said."
"I'm already peeved with you, you wanna make it worse?!" Inuyasha folded his arms over his chest defiantly. A loud sound burst through the air and landed with a tiny prick of pain in the hanyou's side. He howled in anguish. Kagome's eyes darted to the sliding patio door, only to find Souta in Spiderman pajamas with a black bandana tied across his forhead. A small pellet gun hung from the child's hand and swiftly moved it behind him, smiling innocently. Inuyasha scratched at the welt forming on his side.
"What the hell was that thing?!!" Kagome marched over to her sibling and grabbed for the harmless weapon.
"It's a pellet gun that Grandpa gave him last year....what was all that about Souta? And why are you wearing this ridiculous outfit?!"
"I was trying to teach Inuyasha a lesson!"
"HA!"
"Souta, Inuyasha doesn't respond well to force. The best that I have found to work out conlflicts with him is to sit down and...." A loud thud came from behind the siblings and Kagome knew right away what word had caused the foul-mouthed dog boy to crash into the hard ground. She sent the hanyou a glare. "As I was saying..."
"What was that for?!"
"How about for being a jerk to Hojo! Or not being considerate of other people's feelings! Or -"
"Ok I get the idea!"
"Apparently not because you're still being immature!"
"Oh i'm the immature one?!"
"HEY!" Souta positioned himself between the couple, hoping he could get a word in. "You know, you'd think that if you fought like a couple you would make up like a couple- but you two can't even do that! Ya'll MUST be made for each other!" With that said, Souta returned inside. Kagome let the words her brother spoke sink in before sitting on a nearby bench. Inuyasha kept his back to Kagome.
"Well?" Kagome glanced up at the word.
"Well what?"
"You going to apologize?" Kagome forced her anger down to the pit of her stomach.
"Why don't you be a gentleman and apologize first!"
"A gentleman...like Miroku?"
"I need a gentleman's apology, not a sexual harassment lawsuit.."
"You get neither from me, until you apologize first." Inuyasha waited for an angry outburst from the girl but instead caught a final glimpse of a sliding door closing behind her figure.
Sorry so short. Next chapter: The apology...or is it? I know this short thing...well....sucked but the next will be better. And screw the humor, I can only do that with certain characters (i.e. Miroku, Kalea...)
