Author's Notes: Lets see why Inuyasha acted the way he did.. oh yeah, I don't remember the name, but someone said to me "update quicker".. erm.. >. You guys DO understand that I update every other day - 2 days later, right? That's kinda' quick.. most authors wait a week or so. Some even months. So if you complain that I don't write quick enough.. TOUGH! -huffs-

To watery-fairy-glitz, Inuyasha-Freak15, kya, PyslightlySycoh, and DemonAngel12: You guys are now a part of the prep hating club. Wow, there are getting to be so many people.. if anyone wants to, (if their good with computers and websites n' stuffs) make a fanlisting to the people who wanna' kill preppies! It would be really cool, and I bet a lot of people would join. =P

To DemonAngel12: Yes, I hate Kikyou with a passion. She should go back to hell where she belongs and leave Inu/Kag to their business.

To Inuyasha-Freak15: Good question. How did I get over 400 reviews? O.o I dunno, maybe 'cause people like my story and want me to update..? It shall remain a mystery..

To chibi-dorkette: Harley's. BTW, The movie Greese.. I thought it was a terrible way of showing how gangs were. -.-;; It was like a wanna'-be act.. so don't go by that movie on how gangs really are.

To Pepe-Le-Pu: You'll have to wait and see what Kikyou is going to do. ;)

To SwEeT-cHiCk-08: Yeah yeah, I forgive ya'. I know that "some" can be nice, but just understand most aren't. =P To answer your first question: Yes. Naraku is evil now. I wasn't planning on it in the beginning.. but.. it kinda' took a weird turn. Your second question: Yes its possible to do what Kagome did. Trust me on that one.. its possible. Its been done before.. I'll leave it with that.

I have been nominated for Fanfiction Elimination! You don't know how happy I was to see "Soakin' Up The Sun" up there on that list.. it almost gave me a heart attack. >.> I'm so thankful to all you great reviewers out there, and nominating me.. eventhough I probably won't even pass the first round, lol. If you care to vote.. please do so. If I actually win.. I'll like.. write a bizillion chapters a day and post one everyday. O.o

Heres the link: (add in the www's) Thanks once again you guys! You've made my day! (P.S. I put this in my profile too, so there is a direct link there)

On with the story!

So what do you think of that, tough guy?"


His eye's were being hid in his bangs and when he looked at her, their eye's locked and she gasped. They were full of anger and worry. He walked so close to her that their faces were inches away from each other, when he hugged her. Everyone went quiet. All you could hear were the buzzing of the equipment from the news station.


"Inu.. yasha?"

You let me violate you, you let me desecrate you.
You let me penetrate you, you let me complicate you.
Help me, the only thing that works for me. Help me get away from myself.

You can have my isolation, you can have the hate that it brings.
You can have my absence of faith, you can have my everything.
Help me become somebody else.
I want to fuck you like an animal, I want to feel you from the inside.
I want to fuck you like an animal, my whole existence is flawed, you get me closer to God.

"Inu.. yasha?" Kagome spoke uncertainly. "What.. what are you doing?" This was the first time in her life she had ever been this confused. What was he doing? Why?


"Why did you do such a thing?!" He pulled away from the hug and gripped her shoulder's harshly. He shook her, "Why?! You could have died! Think of how much of an impact that could have made on the people in your life!" He growled at her and she just let him shake her around like a rag-doll. "And aren't you searching for that one guy? Think of how that would have made him feel if you died!" She looked up to him harshly when he said that.


She began talking in a low dangerous voice, "You know nothing about that, you selfish self-centered jerk. Don't talk about things that you have no idea about!" She pulled away from him in a snap. "For your information, I did it for him!"


She walked up in front of the camera, "That's right. You know who you are, if your out there.. I'm still here waiting for you." She then looked at Inuyasha. "And this guy here? He's a total bastard!" The camera went back to the lady with the microphone.


"Kagome Higurashi, want to explain what is going on?" She spoke. A camera-man handed Kagome a microphone and she began to speak. "Well you see, I'm on a quest." "A quest you say?" "A quest. I'm looking for this one man.. and I had to get his attention somehow. This was the only way I could think of doing it. Something dramatic and drastic." The woman nodded and ushered Inuyasha to come to her side. He did so.


"And what is it about this guy here? The infamous Inuyasha Taishio, king of the roads?" Inuyasha smirked at his well known reputation. Kagome made a "shoo, go away" motion with her hand and began to speak again, "He's nothing but a loser with a cold personality." The woman begged to differ. "I don't think so, Ms. Higurashi. Did you see what he just did? He hugged you. I think he's got a bit of feeling for ya'.." The woman grinned mischievously and watched Inuyasha blush.


She even pointed it out, "And look at that. He's blushing!" The camera zoomed in on Inuyasha's red face as he pushed it away. "I in no sort of way am in love with that wench! She's a bitch! She whines about everything and everyone, and on top of it all, she's got an ego bigger than the world!" Kagome hit Inuyasha over the head with her microphone.


"How dare you! Well if mine is as big as the world, your's must take up half of the galaxy you big jerk!" She hit him again for good measure.


Inuyasha had finally had enough. It was bad enough she acted like this all the time, but to do it on LIVE T.V. was just overdoing it. He had to think quickly. What could he do to get back at her? Obviously hating her so much didn't. So what was the opposite of hating her..? He grinned. Of course. 'Lets turn the table.. Mrs. Kagome..'


"Its true." He spoke. He positioned the camera in front of his face and spoke, "I was lying before. I really am in love with Kagome here.. we didn't want to tell anyone yet, but we got hitched a couple day's ago. Her name really isn't Kagome Higurashi, ma'am. Right now its Kagome Taishio. My lovely wedded wife."


Kagome had to at least turn twenty different shades of purple when she yelled out, "THAT'S NOT TRUE!" The gang laughed uncontrollably at Inuyasha's motives, and they were apparently the only ones who knew the truth. Inuyasha then got closer to her and pressed his forehead to hers, wrapping his arms around her waist. "No, no darling.. there's no reason to hide the truth.." He leaned his mouth down to her ear and said, "..that's what you get, Kagome."


At about this time, Kagome's mother was pushing through the crowds and grabbed Kagome to her chest and screamed at Inuyasha. "How dare you touch my daughter in a vile way like that, you beast!" She slapped him across the face. Sango and the gang started yelling, "Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!" Just for the hell of it. Now this was good T.V.


By then almost all the news crews in Japan were there filming this event. Kagome was cheery in that way, she was sure that he would see her now! Kagome then got out of those thoughts and back to the situation at hand. She calmed her mom down telling her Inuyasha was only joking. Ms. Higurashi then said, "Prove it, Kagome!" She had to think of how to prove it and get back at him at the same time..


..perfect! "If he was my husband, would I do this?" She walked over to him and kicked him in the balls as hard as she could, leaving him in total pain. Ms. Higurashi then spoke, "I suppose not.." Then Kagome held up her hands. "Oh yeah, and I don't have any rings either."


Ms Higurashi then went over to Miroku, "Honey, I'm taking a vacation. Do you think you could watch over little Kagome for me? I can't deal with her anymore right now.." Miroku nodded and smiled, "Don't worry. She's in good hands ma'am." Ms. Higurashi hugged the boy and went back to her position next to Kagome for the time being until she left.


The T.V. crew's then raised their eyebrows at that statement. The lady who had been talking to Inuyasha and Kagome before went over to Inuyasha and said, "Well don't you feel stupid now?"


He nodded in pain and clenched his teeth together. All the men in the crowd sympathized to him, that had to hurt. The women on the other thought he totally deserved it, and he really was a jerk just like Kagome had said. Kagome then walked in front of the main camera's and lifted her hands up in the air. She spoke, "And that was all I had to say!"


Miroku and the gang started up their motorcycles and people had to get out of the way to let them though. Kagome hopped on Sango's and Miroku picked Inuyasha up and put him on his. They all rode away without a second thought.


Everyone just stood there in silence when the lady spoke, "And this will hit front page of the Japan Times!" Everyone cheered and the police men and firefighters' just left. There was nothing they could do about this situation, she wasn't hurt. And she didn't exactly break a law. There wasn't a law that said, "No jumping off of airplane roofs and airplanes on a motorcycle." It wasn't trespassing either. The airport was public property.


Everyone sighed and went home, some back inside the terminal, and some back to the news station. Time to write it up to the press! Ms. Higurashi went inside the terminal, booked a flight to Hawaii, and was done with it. She needed a vacation away from everyone. She knew when she came back, she would be a new happier woman!

Everyone now was at Inuyasha's place, partying it up. Except for Inuyasha. His upstairs floor was still a little wet from the shower incident earlier, but was almost dry now. "Dou you ink he'll nutice now, Sango?" Said a drunken Miroku.


Currently everyone but Inuyasha and Kagome was drunk; Inuyasha because he wasn't there in that part of the house with them, and Kagome because she didn't drink. Sango responded to Miroku and said, "Oooh.. yeah.. he'll soo notice tiny Kaags, who wood-dent notice teh bootyful wohman?" A slur was apparent in her voice when she just fell over in her chair laughing.


Kagura and Kanna were giving each other piggy back rides and knocking over various priceless objects while Kouga and Ayame were playing darks with forks and knives instead. "Foks and kniefs are fun!" Ayame fell over on the ground and scrambled around to get more objects to throw at the dart-board.


Miroku then walked sluggishly over to Kagome and held out a Pina Colada to her, "Coome on, a tiny drink woon't hoot you, Kaggy. It will bee youur furst wuth rum!" She tried to decline nicely, but that Pina Colada was looking good; cold.. icy.. sweet..


She took it and chugged the whole thing down. Her cheeks became a light pink to show it had all gone to her head and given her a brain freeze. She started wobbling around and Sango cheered, "Ruum it up fur Kags!" Miroku carelessly made her another one, dropping more rum in it than he was supposed to. He was drunk, he couldn't tell.


She chugged that one down too and as soon as she was done, fell over on the floor next to Ayame laughing like a mad-woman. Inuyasha walked in the room from outside and was clearly disgusted. "I'll drive all of you guys home. I don't want you people..--" He was cut off when he began to hear light snoring.


He looked around and saw no one standing up. Then he looked down on the floor.. there everyone was, sleeping. He rolled his eyes and walked out of the room. While he was walking out he missed the pair of eyes that were still open. Kagome's.


She slid out of the room, still drunk, and followed Inuyasha to his room.


---


Inuyasha flopped onto his bed and turned on the radio. The DJ spoke, "The next song is a dedication from JoAnn to Riley." The song began to play. "She says she wants to tell him how she feels.. but she can't express it in words. So Riley, she came to us and requested a song from her to you! Hope your listening out there.. the song is Simple Plan's 'I'd Do Anything'!


"Another day is going by, I'm thinking about you all the time. But you're out there, and I'm here waiting.." The song went on. Inuyasha scoffed at how someone who could try and express themselves through music. Love wasn't fun and games, the words would have to come from the person's mouth. Not from some stupid lyrics that some stupid band did. "Looks like JoAnn is either a huge scared bitch, or just trying to get out of saying it herself." He said to himself.


"And I wrote this letter in my head, 'cause so many things were left unsaid. But now you're gone, and I can't think straight.." How hard was it to think straight without a woman? Not hard at all. "Women. Bah. What were they good for? Cooking, cleaning, and sex." He criticized.


The door to his room cracked open, but he didn't notice. The music was too loud and drowned everything else out. "This could be the one last chance, to make you understand.." The song went on. He could admit the tune was kind of catchy, but.. this JoAnn. Still a total loser.


He closed his eyes and yawned. That's when the drunk Kagome decided to make her appearance. She jumped up on top of him and straddled his waist, leaning down and singing along with the radio. "I'd do anything just to hold you in my arms. To try to make you laugh, somehow I can't put you in the past. I'd do anything just to fall asleep with you. Will you remember me? 'Cause I know I won't forget you..."


Inuyasha was in shock. He couldn't move his arms or legs. Hell, he couldn't move his body. Especially his eyes, they were fixated on Kagome's beautiful chocolately brown ones. She was obviously still drunk, but Inuyasha couldn't put that realization to his mind. All he could see was Kagome. She was sitting ontop of him. In a very.. compromising position. Singing to him.


...jeez life sucked. Was he falling for her? He couldn't be.. but, the way she was such a rebel; it made her look sexy. The way her hair slid over her shoulders when she walked and swished back and fourth with a bounce to her step was even more sexier. The way she smiled.. had she shown him a real smile? A genuine one? He didn't know.. but that was on his to-do-list. Make Kagome smile.


"Together we broke all the rules, dreaming of dropping out of school. And leave this place to never come back. So now maybe after all these years, if you miss me have no fear. I'll be here. I'll be waiting.." The radio and Kagome continued. She leaned down closer to him that their noses were touching, then due to her intoxication, she fell over and was now using him as a bed. She was sprawled out ontop of him and had her hands up his shirt. He winced at the pain of her falling over ontop of him, but took it anyway.


What Inuyasha wanted to know was why this felt so comfortable. So familiar. He looked at Kagome's body, then had some sort of flashback.


---


Inuyasha walked up to a girl, and her face was blank to him. He couldn't tell who it was, but he saw himself and the girl talking. The girl spoke, "Do you think I'm pretty?"


Inuyasha replied with a, "No." The girl looked hurt, but still went on. She said, "Would you want to be with me forever?"


Once again he said, "No." She was at tears now, and Inuyasha was as calm as possible. It looked as if he didn't care. But who could be that cruel as to not care about a girl who was basically confessing their love to him?


She then asked him, "If I were to leave, would you cry?" A tear dripped down her cheek to her chin, then off to the ground. He said, "No, I wouldn't cry."


She had heard enough. As she walked away, tears streaming down her face, Inuyasha grabbed her arm and said, "Your not pretty, your beautiful." The girl gasped and turned around a little to look at him.


"I don't want to be with you forever, I need to be with you forever.." She turned around fully and looked into his eyes as he continued what he was saying, "I wouldn't cry if you left.. I would die."


She lifted her hand up to Inuyasha's cheek and smiled. "I love you." He leaned down and kissed her, then broke away. He replied, "I love you too..--"


---


At that point Kagome had ran her hand up his shirt and she was so close to his face her breath was landing on his lips. He damned God for making him leave that flashback at the moment, because he was just about to say the name of the woman that was in that flashback. What the hell was that? He didn't remember doing that at all with anyone.


Sesshomaru.. Sesshomaru knew. He had a gut feeling that his elder brother would know what was going on. He seemed to know more about Inuyasha's past than Inuyasha himself did. He would definitely be talking to him about this in the morning..


..but back to the situation at hand, the closeness was starting to make him feel a certain way he shouldn't. About Kagome of all people, was the surprising part. And her singing wasn't too bad either, despite her drunkenness. Kagome began singing again, "I close my eyes, and all I see is you. I close my eyes, I try to sleep, I can't forget you. And I'd do anything for you."


Why did it seem like Kagome was actually singing those words to him? Like she was saying it from her heart? Inuyasha 'feh'ed at that thought. Kagome had no heart. But.. she looked like an angel.. he couldn't stand it anymore. He wanted to touch her. And if it had to be when she was drunk, then that was too bad. Her loss. Not his. He lifted his hand up and ran his hands through her raven locks, and running his other hand to her cheek down to her neck. She nuzzled into his hand and kissed his palm.


She kept singing, and when it finally came to the last sentence she whispered it in his ear, "I'd do anything, to fall asleep with you. I'd do anything, 'cause I know I won't forget you.." She put her lips inches away from his and whispered even softer, "I won't forget you.."


'Should I.. take a kiss? Even though she's drunk? Would it be alright?' His mind was trying to reason, but his body wanted something different. He had always had a policy to not take advantage of a woman while she was drunk, but.. this wasn't taking advantage, was it? She was practically offering a kiss..


The alcoholic smell that came from her mouth wafted into his nose and just the smells alone was making him feel a little bit intoxicated himself. He looked at the woman above him and realized it was now or never. She would never allow a kiss later, and he knew it. So he ran his hand down her back and rested it on her hips and said, "You only live once.."
