I'll Remember You
Chapter Two: Don't Just Show Up On My Doorstep
~*~
My deep blue eyes met a set of pained amber ones.
"You weren't supposed to come back."
~*~
I looked at Kagome with a pained expression on his face.
"Kagome?"
Kagome looked at her hands then pushed Shouta off her lap. She gave her younger brother a gentle smile, then said, "Go downstairs and help mama with dinner, alright?"
"Alright nee-chan!" Shouta piped and ran out of the room.
Once Shouta was gone, Kagome looked out the window.
"What are you doing here?" Kagome asked, not looking at me.
"Why are you asking me that?" I asked in anger. 'What the hell is she playing at.'
Kagome took her gaze from the open window to her feet. Her beautiful azure eyes were covered by her bangs.
"Why?" I repeated, my anger overpowering my sense of smell. I didn't even notice when tears began rolling down her cheeks.
~* I'm glad you've kept alive
Through the things I've said and done
And you know just what I'm like
When it comes to this
I can't say what I really want
I can't show what I really feel *~
"Don't ask me that." Kagome said in anger. Her fists were shaking, her face was streaked with tears. She felt like she was breaking.
But I still didn't notice.
"Why not, Kagome? What's with you, anyway?!" I hissed.
Kagome was now covering her ears with her pale hands. "STOP IT!"
I swiftly grabbed her arm and pulled her up closer to my face. Only now did I notice the distressed look on her face. Guiltilly, I was about to let go when . . .
"NEE-CHAN!" Shouta yelled, pulling Kagome away from me.
~* I never let somebody through the door
Here I am answering your call
So I take a ride by the telephone booth
Two blocks down there's a park, you can't miss it
Don't stop to enjoy the view, I really miss ya
There's a bridge right ahead of you
Just right for a kiss romantically
I don't care how, don't take your time, just get here now
I'm the one that bridge two blocks down in the park,
You can't miss it *~
"HEY!" I shouted. "This is NONE of your BUSINESS!" I tried to grab her back, but Shouta stood in front of her.
It was strange to see this kid in front of me protecting Kagome. He had gotten taller since I last saw him; he even looked more mature. I watched as he stood there. He was doing what he thought was right? Kagome was- NO _IS_ MINE!
With all my frustration, I swiped at Shouta, expecting him to step out of the way.
He didn't.
Kagome screamed as my claws hit his face. She was covering her ears and sobbing. Shouta went flying towards the wall. Before anything could be done, Shouta colided with the wall with a sickening thud. Kagome was still screaming and crying. Had I really done this to her? Did I really hurt her that much? Was it all my fault? I looked at where Shouta lay. He was trying his best to move, but I could smell the fear in the room. This kid had looked up to me! And I had totally messed it up!
~* I won't say that I'm sorry, no
Cause that's just one side of me
But you proved you can handle that so well
Where others would run, you'd say hello
Made me feel good, made me feel sure
I never let somebody through the door *~
"Kagome." I whispered and took a step towards her.
It seemed that her name was the only thing I could say. Everything else seemed worthless. Her name rolled over my tounge again, but this time as I stepped towards her, she scooted back, stopping at the wall. Another step. She struggled to regain feeling in her legs and scrambled over to Shouta, who had begun crying.
"Nee-Chan." He sobbed. "I'm scared!"
Kagome wrapped her arms around Shouta's small frail body.
"Kagome!" I held my hand out to her.
~* So I take a ride by the telephone booth
Two blocks down there's a park, you can't miss it
Don't stop to enjoy the view outside, I really miss you
There's a bridge right ahead of you
Just right for a kiss romantically
I don't care how, don't take your time, just get here now
I'm the one on that bridge two blocks down in the park
You can't miss it *~
She turned to me quickly, her beautiful eyes angry.
"Leave!" She commanded. "Don't you DARE come here and attack my family! Get out! Get out of here!" She pointed to the window. "Go back and don't EVER come back!"
"But, Kagome-!" Shouta cut me off. He gasped the words out, but I was sure of what I heard
"Don't just show up on our doorstep and expect us to let you bring violence here! Not after what you did to nee-chan! Just go back to the Sengoku Jidai, and don't come back! You've hurt her too much!"
Kagome was now hugging Shouta to her and sobbing into his shoulder. Shouta could barely move his battered body, and I felt guilty for what I had done. Shouta pushed out of Kagome's embrace a bit so that he could get at me. He tried to stand; I was sure he wanted to hit me. Kagome held him back. It's not like he could do much damage anyway.
"LEAVE!" Shouta shouted as loudly as he could.
My ears flattened against my head. I looked down in shame. Did they hate me?
"Kagome, that's not how you feel, is it?" I asked desparately.
Kagome looked back at me, her eyes filled with sadness.
"You can't just show up on my doorstep, InuYasha. I've been broken and I can't be put back together again."

Hey, Kari again! I was thinking about going on with this, but I'm not quite sure. Tell me what you think! ^_^
