Chapter 7: To Have a Dream, Only to Shatter It
By InuShemeeko
Kagome smiled as she stepped out of the bathroom. She raven hair was still slightly damp from her shower; Kagome was now dressed in a pair of pink flannel pajamas. She then walked down the hall and tapped on the door to the room.
"Inuyasha the shower's yours if you want it."
Kagome then made it to her room just in time for her cats Buyo and Tigerlily to come running in. She shook her head as the two rolled on the floor together. A sigh slipped from her lips as she sat on the bed beside her cat Tigerlily. Buyo stared at them from his seat on the floor. She then scratched Tigerlily's chin causing the cat to purr.
"Well, at least I didn't burn the dinner and make a complete fool of myself."
Then again why was she worried about making a fool of herself in front of him? They were friends so it really shouldn't matter it she made a fool of herself right?
Ten minutes later Inuyasha walked into her bedroom. He was now wearing a black T-shirt with grizzly bears on it and a pair of dark blue sweat pants. His slivery-white hair was damp, telling Kagome that he had also decided to wash his hair. Her eyes then looked at what he was now wearing.
"Oh good you found something of Jiro's to wear. Mom said that they would fit you; looks like she was right."
Inuyasha shifted his weight on his feet.
"Yeah she sure did and it looks like she was right."
"They look good on you."
Kagome gasped at first and then slowly turned to see how he had reacted to her comment.
"Thanks Kagome they're really comfortable too."
Kagome then beamed another bright smile at him. Then watched him walk over to her bookshelf a pick up a movie.
"Don't tell me. Let me guess The Mummy right?"
Inuyasha's now violet eyes gleamed down at her as he shook his head.
"Nope, wrong."
Kagome's chocolate orbs then caught a glimpse of the title. Utter surprise etched across her face, as she read the title Dirty Dancing.
"Dirty Dancing huh? Are you sure you want to watch it?"
Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders as he watched Kagome.
"Sure I happened to see it after you left to check on our dinner. Which was good by the way. I figured it would be cool to watch it with a friend. Seeing how the last time I watched it I was twelve and it was raining, so I was stuck inside with my mother. So yeah why not, it's ok with you right?"
Kagome blushed a light pink as she quickly waved her hand in front of her.
"Oh no that's fine. I love that movie. I wouldn't have it if I didn't like."
Inuyasha then decided to go ahead and slip the movie into the VCR. He then walked around her bed and slid across the bed to lie on his stomach beside her.
************************************************************************
An hour and a half later into the movie both Inuyasha and Kagome could be found sitting on the floor. Kagome was now perched on Inuyasha's lap, her eyes slowly started to droop as the last scene in the movie came the end.
*`Cause I had the time of my life
And I've searched through every open door
Till I've found the truth and I owe it all to you*
The next then Kagome heard was Inuyasha's soft voice speaking to her.
"Hey, Sleeping Beauty the movie is over."
Kagome's response was a soft moan. She was warm and comfort on whatever she was lying on and she didn't really want to move. Kagome then slowly opened her eyes to find a pair of soft violet eyes looking down at her. It was then that she realized that she had fallen asleep on his lap.
She and Inuyasha just stared at each other for a minute. Kagome broke the silence when she spoke.
"Your eyes they're violet."
Inuyasha laughed lightly at this, it was then that he realized that she had never seen his true eye color before. Why? Because when he was at school he always wore his gold contacts.
"I just happened to see the gold contacts one day and decided to give it a shot. In the end I really got used to them and I've had them ever since."
Inuyasha soon found himself getting lost in Kagome's chocolate orbs the same could be said about Kagome with Inuyasha's hidden violet ones. Inuyasha found himself asking Kagome something he thought he never would have asked her.
"Um...Kagome you want to dance with me?"
Kagome giggled lightly at him before she answered him.
"Uh, don't we need music to dance to first?"
Inuyasha just grinned at her.
"Don't worry already got that covered."
Just as Inuyasha pulled Kagome up from the floor, music started to play from the radio.
*Stay
Just a bit longer
Please, please, please,
Please, please
Tell me you're going to*
Kagome smiled as she felt her body swaying with the music. It felt like it was a dream one she never wanted to end.
*Now, daddy don't mind
And your mommy don't mind
If we have another dance
Just one more
One more time*
Kagome's hips swayed with the music. A small moan escaped her lips as she felt Inuyasha's hands glide down her to her swaying hips. Her heartbeat quicken as Inuyasha spoke to her.
"Kagome will you stay here with me and dance for a while?"
*Oh, won't you stay
Just a little bit longer
Please let me hear
You say that you will*
It was then Kagome noticed the pink dress that she was wearing. The skirt on the dress went to her knees and thin spaghetti straps held the dress snug to her body showing off her curves.
'Damn why is it that my dreams are better then my real life?"
Her chocolate eyes soon glance down at Inuyasha as the dance. It was then that she noticed that the only thing that Inuyasha was wearing nothing but a pair of light gray pants, and black dress shoes, and a red dress shirt that was no longer closed. Which aloud him to show off every well curved muscle, which was now causing Kagome to have hot flashes.
'Oh well if this is a dream it's a pretty damn good one.'
*Won't you press your sweet lips
To mine
Won't you say you love me
All of the time*
Suddenly before Kagome could react she felt Inuyasha's graze gently against her's, before she was pulled into a full on kiss. She then suddenly felt Inuyasha pull her closer to him. They both then deepened the kiss as if they both needed it to survive.
*Stay
Just a little bit longer
Please, please, please
Please, please
Tell me you're going to*
They both broke the kiss together; their eyes were now filled with passion as the looked at each other. Oh how Kagome wished this could last forever, she felt herself wanting to agree with the music and stay right here with Inuyasha.
*Come on, come on
Come on and stay*
Kagome then felt light headed as if she was being pulled back to the real world a place she wasn't sure she wanted to go too.
'Figures I have a good dream only to be awaken from it. That's just peachy.'
Kagome blinked a few times only to fine herself being held within Inuyasha's arms. The only this different from her dream was the fact that she was back in her pink flannel pj's and Inuyasha was in a black T-shirt and sweat pants. She then found herself glazing into Inuyasha's violet orbs. Now she wasn't sure which she like better his golden contacts or his natural violet eyes.
Kagome gasped at her last thought.
'Why do I care about the color of his eyes I like the most? Inuyasha and I are just friends that all. There's nothing more to it.'
Kagome was then startled as Inuyasha's lips suddenly came down onto her's. Unsure of what to do at first her froze on the spot unable to think. She then felt herself leaning into the kiss; she even let herself enjoy it a little bit.
'He's kissing me! I can't believe that his really kissing me.'
The words from her friend Rin hang through her mind.
'Kagome, I know that you really like Inuyasha and all. I just want you to be careful; Inuyasha and his brother Sesshomaru are big flirts you know. No one has ever seen them with a girlfriend. I just don't want you to get hurt.'
Were the words that Rin had spoke to her true? Was Inuyasha just flirting with her. If he was Kagome didn't know if she could handle it. She had had her heart crushed to many times in the past. Kagome then really started to wonder if someone could really love someone who was as different as her.
Kagome pulled out of the kiss first.
"Inuyasha we...we can't it wouldn't be right. You're my friend I wouldn't want to do anything that would damage our friendship."
Kagome then stood up and walked over her computer and stared at her screen saver. She turned two sad doe eyes toward Inuyasha.
Inuyasha looked up at the clock that read 11:45pm. He then pulled himself up from the floor. Inuyasha then looked at Kagome with his violet eyes that were mirroring the same sadness that Kagome's were.
"Kagome I understand really I do and I'm sorry. I should have thought before I acted. Well goodnight Kagome."
He then made his way to her door and reached for the knob.
"Inuyasha wait I...it's...not that I didn't like the kiss...I liked it I really did. It's just...that I've had my heart broken to many times in the past. I...just don't want to be hurt like that again. To tell you the truth my heart is still mending."
Inuyasha nodded in understanding as he walked out the door.
"Good night Inuyasha."
*****************************************************************
After Inuyasha had left Kagome's room she walked over to her radio and turned it on. She then busied herself as the music filled her room.
*Playground school bell rings again
Rain clouds come to play again
Has no one told you she's not breathing?
Kagome felt her breath catch in her throat as tears started to build in her eyes, threatening to spill down her cheeks.
Hello I'm your mind giving you
Someone to talk to
Hello*
The realization of what she had just did rocked through her mind, causing her to fall to the floor of her bedroom.
*If I smile and don't believe
Soon I know I'll wake from this dream*
Had Inuyasha really kissed her and had she really said no to the one thing she had wanted more then life it's self. Did he really understand like he said he did?
*Don't try to fix me I'm not broken
Hello I'm the lie living for you so you can hide
Don't cry*
Kagome knew that she had just messed up then again she didn't know if she had or not, she was so confused.
*Suddenly I know I'm not sleeping
Hello I'm still here
All that's left of yesterday*
Tears stained her cheeks as she softly cried herself to sleep, her body curled up in a ball as she lay on the floor.
************************************************************************
Inuyasha rolled over in bed and stared at the red letters on the clock that read. 12:20am. He still hadn't been able to fall asleep. Inuyasha then thought he heard Kagome's radio playing in her room.
'Maybe Kagome is still awake. I'll go see.'
Inuyasha climbed out of bed and out the bedroom door and a cross the hall. Where he knocked lightly on Kagome's door.
"Kagome, are you still awake? I thought maybe we could talk. I just want to apologize for earlier for my behavior I...Kagome?"
Inuyasha slowly turned the doorknob, and pushed the door open. Letting Inuyasha see Kagome's sleeping form lying on the floor beside her bed. He then walked into her room and over to the sleepy angel on the floor. Lifted her into his arms and then laid her on her bed covering her up.
"Kagome, I really do like you I hope you can forgive me and that we can still be friends. Maybe someday we can maybe be more then friends. I like that idea how about you?"
Inuyasha was surprised by the whispered answer gave him while deep in her dreams.
"Yes, I would like that too."
A smile etched itself on to Inuyasha's lips as he watched her sleep and then turned of her radio followed by her light.
"Good night my...Kagome."
Inuyasha smiled at the fact of her one-day being his Kagome. Just as he was about to close her door he spoke once more.
"Goodnight Kagome sweet dreams."
A/N: Yay! I finally got Ch. 7 done. Hope you guys enjoy. In the next chapter Inuyasha and Kagome have to come to terms with their feelings for one another. Oh and please, please review. Thank you so much. Ciao, InuShemeeko
