Disclaimer: I still do not claim to own Inuyasha: A Feudal Fairy Tale. It is the work of Takahashi Rumiko and her's alone.
I haven't updated in a while have I..o.o;;
Honestly, I had totally forgotten that I had put this fic up. When I saw it and that I had reviews, I was so happy. And I felt in this weird writing mood today so I decided to update. I really hadn't even planned on continuing this, but the reviews spurred me on ^-^
This chapter is shorter than the first, but I wasn't sure if I should make her dream, and if so, should I put it in this chapter? I decided to just go ahead and leave the dream out…
Chapter Two:~
A while later Inuyasha pulled into a small driveway and turned the key. [A/N I'm having weird mental images of Inuyasha driving -.-]
Kagome looked up from staring at her lap and at the small house they had stopped at. It looked as cozy as it was going to get. She watched as Inuyasha went to the back and drug out her small suitcase she had packed, knowing she wouldn't be able to stay near the Shrine. She opened her door a stepped out slowly.
"Ready?" Inuyasha asked, also looking up at the apartment. Kagome nodded slightly and even gave him a small smile, which made him beam.
They stepped up to the door and Inuyasha hesitated slightly.
"Um. Don't be discouraged by him…he's a bit cranky. But he can be okay." Inuyasha said, sweatdropping. It appeared Kagome wasn't listening, and he almost got upset, thinking that she was still brooding, before he heard a cold voice from right in front of him.
"I'm glad you think so, brother." Inuyasha got a slightly frightened look on his face but he was stubborn and turned to glare at his brother haughtily.
"Well I'm glad you're glad I think so." He said, proud of himself for coming up with that line. Sesshomaru just stared at him, annoyed. Kagome coughed slightly to hide the small laugh that had risen, unbidden to her throat. Inuyasha blinked and looked over to her.
"Ah, sorry Kagome." Inuyasha passed right by Sesshomaru and walked right in as if he owned the place. Sesshoumaru scowled and stepped back from the door, and waited impatiently for Kagome to come in. All this time she had been studying him.
His long, shiny white hair, and slitted eyes like a demon. And what was with the coat around his shoulders? And those glasses definetly made him look sophisticated.
"Take a picture, it would last longer." He said coldly, and Kagome stood blinking before an angry flush came over her face.
"It's not like I meant to." She said angrily before stomping into the house after Inuyasha.
She looked around at the furnishings…it wasn't really homey. Very plain, and impersonal. She really didn't care though. She was realizing just how much that day had wore her out.
"Kagome? Here's your room." She looked up to see Inuyasha poking his head out of a doorway. She drug herself in and saw an equally plain room as the rest of the house, but her attention was focused mainly upon the bed. Inuyasha had set the suitcase on it and straitened it up a bit; not that it needed it, being so clean and plain anyway…
She looked up and saw Inuyasha hopping from foot to foot, clearly unsure.
"Are you hungry? I could have brother make you something…"
"No, I'm okay. But I think I will go to bed." She said, eyeing the bed.
"Ah…okay then…well, if you need anything, I'll be in the bedroom on the left of you. And Sesshoumaru is across the hall, but I wouldn't bother him…" He trailed off, and smiled at Kagome again before giving her a small hug before turning and closing the door on his way out.
After a moment of staring at the closed door, Kagome turned to the bed. She slipped the suitcase off the bed and onto the floor, and she sat on the bed. The sheets were pretty soft, and it seemed sleep was calling onto her to ride the waves. But she was kind of scared. She was so tired…she could feel the fatigue slipping through, outweighing the fear of having a nightmare.
She hesitantly pulled back the covers and slipped between them, not even bothering to change her clothes into something more comfortable them the black dress she still wore.
Review Responses
Sunstar-1217– I just read back and realized…I'd never written such a depressing fanfic o.o;;
It will get better though, her bickering with Sess-sama will indeed pull her out of her depression. Sess/Kag is a pretty cool pairing, ne?
Angerona – Thanks! I have an idea on what I want, so I hope it turns out okay. I haven't written on this in a while and it's weird writing on it again, trying to remember how the character should be feeling ^^
Suki1 – Thanks, sorry for the wait, I never expected to work on this again o.O
Jade- inu – I hope I'll be able to finish it, I sure can try o.O yay for Sess/Kag ^^
Keito-chan – I'm glad you think so~! Sorry for all the angst…don't know what possessed me to…anyway, it will get better, promise. Oho…they'll get along…*grin*
SaNgO (may use mukuro) – Thank you so much for the review. I'm really sorry I haven't updated in a while. You don't have to read it all, obsession is bad o.o;;
And you don't have to read my other fics ^^;;;
Lol, I used to be like that when I was younger, and I always managed to mess up the computer somehow. My friend Leigh, is the same way. Though nowadays she seems to be signing up for everything…I swear she thinks she's a demon, she's so obsessed with Inuyasha ;)
And the fanfiction here sure is thriving ne?
Mala Valva – Thanks much, here's another chappy, sorry if it's cruddy L I guess I could call it a rough draft, as it may have some mistakes.
