Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha =(
And Those Amber Eyes of Sunlight...-Chapter Four: Departure
After receiving the news and going home, blatantly screaming at Sesshoumaru after he'd been asked who did it several times, Inuyasha passed by him and snarled one word,"Naraku...," before locking himself in his room, refusing to speak or come out to anyone. While on the other side of the county, Kagome, who had requested a week off from work, had done the same. Laying herself down to sleep and falling into a kind of hibernate stance, she stayed in her house always.
All the while, Rin and Sesshoumaru were frantic, their vet and close friend had been hurt deeply by their brother's remark and the hanyou was caught in his morning for Kikyo, what were they going to do?!
Sometimes, Rin would run to the Kagome's office and plead with Sango to try and bring Kagome out of her unhappiness, for deep within her heart, she knew once Kagome talked with Inuyasha, that things would be ok again, and vice versa. It never took much to get Sango to go try though, Kagome was her best friend after all. And while she'd been sent to the task of doing that, Rin and Sesshoumaru took turns standing, or sitting, at his door, talking to him, trying to bring the broken hearted man from his room.
Finally, one day, their efforts paid off. Inuyasha, a tired, disheveled, puffy, red-eyed Inuyasha, opened his door and walked out to meet with the pleading Rin who had grown so frustrated in the last three days this had been happening, that finally she begun to cry.
But upon seeing him, she rose from her sitting place beside the door and flung her arms around his neck, weeping with joy this time instead of frustration. Sesshoumaru, coming from the barn and up the stairs to see what all the commotion was about and to find out why he could sense his mate crying, thought he would rip off his brother's head for the way they stood together. But Rin, sensing her husband's apprehension, disentangled herself from Inuyasha and smiled brightly at Sesshoumaru, jumping into an embrace. 'Finally, the can stop...I thought it'd never end.'
--------
On Kagome's side however, things were still fairing ill winded as she had almost permanently lodged herself under the heavy comforters in her bed. In the last three days she had passed between three activities. Sometimes she slept, sometimes she wept, and sometimes she just stared at the ceiling and wondered why she felt this way. 'I barely even know him...What's happening to me, what have I gotten myself into?!"
Tears began to prick at the corners of her eyes once more, like they had done almost every night for the last three days, and again she turned over, and again she wept. Wept for how beautiful he was, wept for how much she hated him, and wept for how much she knew she could love him.
Just then, the door bell rang, and sniffling, she wiped her eyes and called down the stairs, "Sango, go away, please just leave me alone!" She was fed up with how concerned her friend seemed, deep inside she loved her for coming over almost everyday, but on the outside, she was just feeling pestered.
She heard the door open and sighed, knowing her friend could not be put off as easy, and turning her face into the pillow, she feigned sleep.
--------
It had taken a lot of convincing to get Inuyasha to go to Kagome's house and try to console her. At first all he'd said is,"Keh." Brushing off the matter as if it had no meaning. He'd argued with Rin and Seshoumaru, saying she was only a wimpy wench who needed to stop getting worked up over things and they had retaliated and finally forced him to when they said how much he had owed it to them.
So sighing, growling, grumbling, and knowing it was the truth the whole time, he'd climbed into his viper, after a hardy meal, and sped over the winding road, pulling up quietly in Kagome's drive way. Walking up to her front door, he'd rung the doorbell and listened as Kagome's voice had told someone named Sango to go away. Well, he wasn't this Sango, now was he?
Walking in, his ears swiveled in every direction to listen for any signs of danger, and finding nothing, other then a fat cat on the coffee table, he assumed there was none. Then, turning toward the spiraling, wrought iron stair case, the direction he had heard her sigh, he began walking up them until he found himself in one big room.
The room looked so luxurious, for it was painted a dark, but not too dark, blue, and on the ceiling the solar system was printed out in red, oranges, light blues, and greens around the round light fixture he assumed was the "sun". A small table sat to one corner with two chairs around it and a dresser stood to another along with a dressing stand. All those were of the same cherry colored wood he'd seen in the living room. When he looked down, he was surprised to find that the floor, a blue, swirly colored tile, had glow-in-the-dark stars and other space shapes on it, much like the ceiling and walls around him. He looked to his left and noticed a door, wide open, leading into a bathroom, then he looked to his right, and in the corner, stood a wrought iron, king sized canopy bed.
His mind began to wander into thoughts that he shouldn't be having at the point as he noted the heavy, dark blue, drapes that could be swung shut to block out the bright light of the sunny room which consisted of three windows, all facing but one facing the forest, the third was facing the sun.
Walking quietly to her bedside, he gently sat down on the edge of the bed, looking over the form hidden beneath the heavy blankets. She looked lovely, though he could tell she was pretending, as her chest, covered in a white spaghetti strap, rose rhythmically to her breathing.
Moving to the other side of her, where there was more room, he climbed under the covers, shoes and all, and lay down beside her, wrapping his arms around her waist. Pulling her tight against him, he buried his face in her hair and inhaled deeply, catching the scent of lavender and something else...sakura blossoms...
'Kikyo…'
Though, this bliss did not last, for he felt Kagome's body go stiffer and stiffer with every move he made and slapping himself mentally for being so stupid, wondering how he thought he could just waltz in and do this, he quickly removed his arms and began to sit up, throwing back the covers to leave.
'I'm so stupid, so stupid, what was I thinking?!' His mind screamed. 'Stupid humans…' And with that he sprung off the bed, turning once to see Kagome looking very puzzled indeed. "Inuya-…" "Look Kagome, I only came here to say I'm sorry about the other day. Rin and Sesshoumaru are worried, so please get out of bed."
With that, he turned away and fled from the house all together, leapt into his car, and sped away.
He only stopped when he'd reached his brothers house and when he did, he opened the front door and slammed it shut with such force that it caused a vase in the living room to crash onto the floor. This noise caused Rin to run into the room from the kitchen just in time to watch the hanyou stalk up the stairs and into his room.
"Inuyasha," She called after him, running up the stairs to catch up. "Inuyasha, what are you doing?" She stood in the door way, her hands clutching a dish towel as she watched him pull his clothes from the dresser and stuff them into his bag.
Shaking he head, she stepped closer to the opposite side of the bed from which he stood. "Inuyasha, stop, what's going on?!"
Looking up, he gave her a heated stare, causing her to step back in surprise. "I'm leaving, Rin." "What?! What do you mean you're "leaving"?"
"I'm done taking up your space, I need to get back to the city to go to Kikyo's funeral. Besides, I need to start working again anyway."
Shaking her head, Rin's mouth opened in a look of mixed sadness and puzzlement. What could've happened to cause such events, she thought, suspiciously thinking that something had happened at Kagome's. 'And I thought they liked each other…'
Inuyasha finished packing his stuff, all the time feeling Rin's stare upon him. 'I wish the bitch would just leave me alone,' he thought furiously, pulling the bag shut before standing up straight and saluting Rin in a farewell gesture. "See ya."
Turning he jumped down the stairs and went out to his car, starting the ignition and leaving before he had to stand anymore of her looking.
-----------------------------
Alrighty, well, things came up and I did plan to have it go some way but instead it went another. So anyway, review and tell me what you think, should his car crash near kagomes while its raining so he has to take cover, or should he make it all the way back to the city? Actually I thinkI'll pick the first option for you guys =) Aren't I so nice LOL? And I promise that this won't be the end for Inuyasha and kagome whatever the outcome!!!!
