Chapter 9: A Boy's Envy
InuYasha watched Kagome and HoHo's little "escapade" into the trees. And, yah, he followed. Watched like a hawk and, yep, growled like a dog.
It was so unexpected, he honestly didn't notice that he was about to growl. It seemed almost on instinct that he did it. But as the day grew to night and night turned to morning, InuYasha knew.
He didn't like knowing either. And had tried as many excuses as he could think of, but the truth eventually haunted him.
He was jealous of HoHo getting to go out with Kagome while he was the invisible third wheel. He was mad that he couldn't tell Kagome how beautiful she looked tonight. He was sad that it took him this long to realize he truly cared for her and as Sesshomaru had once said, loved her.
"FEH!"
But there was a tiny fragment of happy: she hadnt kissed HoHo.
And that was a plus. And even if he wouldnt have growled,when Kagome yelled at HoHo, it made InuYasha proud to...nevermind.
He wanted to know why his heart dropped and why the whole scene wouldn't stop playing over and over in his head.
That damn HoHo explaining about stupid "sacred passion" that dumb tree. ...If only InuYasha hadn't followed them...that could've saved him from this...he almost wanted to say....heartbreak.
No. It's not my fault. It's HoHo's. he's the whole reason this is happening. But inuyasha never would've found out if he just would have stayed in Feudal Times.
He was so confused.All these different feelings pulling, tugging at him. At his soul. He didn't know where to go, what to do, how to act...
So he sat there doing absolutely nothing but thinking as the night reached it's morning. Then slowly, sleep came for him.
