CHAPTER TEN - My will and Yours
Chiaki was determined to get a hold of that hot guy that had been with Kagome. And luckily for her (A/N - not other characters) , something was about to come her way...
--Inuyasha and Kagome--
"YOU JACK ASS!"
"WENCH!"
"AAAARGH! SIT BOY! SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT, SIT BOY!!!!!" (A/N - spoiler - I love that part from the first movie) (Wow, I'm talking a lot, must be the caffeine... COFFEE!)
Inuyasha pried himself out of the floor, but was not happy. He and Kagome got into another fight right before school, so naturally she wanted to avoid all of what just happened before she was late. But, considering the topic of the squabble, he was anxious for revenge.
--flashback --
"NO INUYASHA, I'M NOT GOING TO STAY HOME FROM SCHOOL JUST SO YOU WILL HAVE ENTERTAINMENT!" Kagome yelled at his face, although in truth, she wanted to. Just not as entertainment, and also her mother would slaughter her if she skipped school. Ironic considering how often she was at the feudal era.
"YES YOU ARE WENCH! BESIDES WHAT DO YOU HAVE TO DO THAT'S BETTER ANYWAY?!"
" SCHOOL, YOU DUMB ASS!!!"
"WELL WHAT AM I SUPPOSED TO DO?! DIG A NEW WELL SO I COULD TALK TO KIKYO?!" he yelled. However, he would never do that. He had finally figured out that the only feelings he had for a person besides Kagome was a walking, talking, soul sucking, blob of mud.
'I knew it...' Kagome thought, fighting so desperately to hold back tears. So, without even thinking about it, he blurted out, "WHY DON'T YOU JUST GO OUT WITH CHIAKI?! IT WOULD BE EASIER!" and then mentally thwacked herself in the head with a baseball bat.
"WELL FINE, WENCH! RIGHT AFTER YOU GO OUT WITH THAT HOBO GUY! HIS STUPID PERSONALITY WOULD FIT YOU PERFECTLY!"
"YOU JACK ASS!"
"WENCH!"
You know the rest...
--end flashback--
He thought of oh so dearly that she would pay for those many sits. He'd make her jealous.
Inuyasha headed over into the kitchen and picked up the phone, and the high school's phone book, and began dialing Chiaki's cell-phone. It ringed, again, and was answered. "Chiaki Matsuda here, who am I talkin' to?"
"Hey, Chiaki. Do you remember the guy that was with Kagome Higurashi that day at the mall? It's me. Inuyasha." he could feel her gladness upon hearing this.
"Oh... Inuyasha... What ever is it that you need from me?"
"I was thinking that we could hang out at the Kabangu Café during your lunch hour. I'll be joining your school soon, so I already know the times and crap. Waddya say?"
"YES!"
"Okay... see ya then." and clicked off the phone. It was only after he put the phone down on the receiver that Sango 'Humphed'.
"GWAAAH! What are you doing sneaking up on me like that Sango?!"
"And I thought that you would have heard or at least smelled me coming. Whatever. Inuyasha, just what exactly do you think you're doing?!" she yelled.
"Simple, makin' Kagome jealous." He remembered back...
Once they all had returned to the SUV, "INUYASHA! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WERE STARING AT THAT HOR!" Kagome yelled with all of her might. Her mother had to reframe herself from yelling right along with her daughter, since she knew that what she said was true. "What do you mean, she seemed nice to m-..."
"WELL YA TO YOU! THAT'S THE ONE SHE'S AFTER!" Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. "Why do you care? Are you jealous Kagome?" She turned redder than Miroku's face after being slapped. "...No! It's just, uh...."
'This'll work like Tetsusaiga. Perfectly.'
"Oh Kami. Inuyasha, this isn't going to work the way you think it will." ' It's going to shatter Kagome's soul...'
"Feh."
"Get back here Hanyou!"
--With Kagome--
She turned the corner of the high school, wishing to be back at home in bed. No longer was it possible for the miko to hold the tears back. Salty droplets streamed down her cheek, thinking of how much it still stung when Inuyasha said those things. 'He just doesn't get it...'
Kagome trudged into her homeroom, just as the bell rang. She took no heed though, and simply sat down in her desk. 'I have a bad feeling about today...'
--later
"Kagome, when are you going to go out with Hojo!?"
"Seriously, you've only been to a full date with him, what, once?!"
"I know, and he is SOO much better than this bossy, two-timing, jerk you keep on telling us about?!"
"Kagome, are you listening at all?!" her friends babbled on and on, unaware of how much Kagome was hurting. 'Why can't he ever treat me with respect? Or care? Well, he does sometimes, but on too rare of occasions...'But something caught her eye. It was Chiaki walking into the Café across the street. 'What the hell? She never comes out here for lunch...' "Hold on you guys, I have to go check something out..." she said, just as the clouds above began to drizzle.
"Huh?"
"Sheesh, and you guys complain about me not listening."
She made her way across the street, and attempted to peer through a window. Not a good enough peep hole. As rain began to fall in full droplets, and for some reason, every person on foot, bike, and car vanished, she turned the corner of the pavement to look through the window on that side.
Quietly awakening...
I always, always wish
that these fleeting thoughts
would reach you...
There was Inuyasha (with hat on), sitting across from Chiaki. The hor began to laugh her head off. Inuyasha only smirked a little, sipping a little of his soda. He knew that Kagome was there, he could smell her outside the window. 'Perfect. Now she'll barge in and yell at me, showing just how jealous she is...'
Unable to move forward across "just a little more" distance
The way I see before me is always blocked
Every time the days I want to see you but can't pile up,
My strong heartbeat turns into heartbreak.
But she didn't move. Kagome just stared in upon the scene with nothing else then heartbreak and sheer horror. Just as he turned and saw the tears gushing from her, she bolted. Straight down the side walk. Down the next road, and the next, getting as far as far as she could while holding it in. Yet, upon stopping for breath, it was impossible to delay the inevitable. "INUYASHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!!"
If there is such a thing as "eternity,"
I want to believe, even if I have to take the long way.
Although I know that I've been hurt before because I'm clumsy
I won't stop; I won't give in to anyone.
Inuyasha heard her scream out his name, and out of agony, not terror. 'Oh Kami, Sango was right!'
"I forgot about something extremely important. See ya." Before she could speak he was gone.
Once it was out of her system, Kagome was surged with energy of woe, and sprinted down more and more roads. And after a while, she could here Inuyasha coming up behind her. No heed was given, and unknown to her, wings of light thrust themselves from her back, and Kagome Higurashi flew into the sky.
"What the..." Inuyasha stared upwards at the girl he shattered.
I think of you
and that alone is enough
to make the tears start to flow now
I always, always wish
that these fleeting thoughts
would reach you...
The miko, after first discovering that she was flying, had wings, and could control how she flew, touched down in a small, dead ended, alleyway. The tears exploded from her eyes, and Kagome slumped up against a wall, ignoring the pain her new limbs her sending her.
'My Inuyasha... has chose another... and any other, my all time enemy from this era! He doesn't want to be with me... he doesn't love me after all...' Her wings vanished back into her back as she suddenly felt empty. As if there was nothing to keep her heart beating.
I've known all too well about pretending to be strong.
But since then, my doubts have vanished.
There's definitely things I want to show you
And so many words I want to hear
I want to see all sides of you, when you laugh and cry
So I'll stop waiting
and seize my "chance."
'I had my chance, and blew it into the clouds... Inuyasha... what's the point to keep going now? Maybe I'll just stay here until I die...'
I think of you,
and I feel like that alone is enough
to make my heart grow stronger.
I always, always wish
that these fleeting thoughts
would reach you...
"KAGOME!! KAGOME!!" Inuyasha yelled through the streets of Tokyo, being drenched by the pounding rain. 'Damn it! All of this rain is washing away he scent... Oh Kagome, I'm sorry...I'm so sorry...' The hanyou jumped into a nearby tree, and for a second, he thought he could smell her. 'She's that way!'
I think of you
and that alone is enough
to make the tears start to flow now
My distant voice can't reach you now, but so that someday
it definitely will...
Believe. la la la la la la...
Believe. la la la la la la...
Believe. la la la la la la...
"Inuyasha..." she whispered, tears still flowing. Or what she thought were tears. In truth, she had cried to such an extent that no more tears could come from her eyes. So now, blood began to trickle from her eye lashes to the ground. "Inuyasha..."
"Oh Kami, Kagome's blood! The rain can't hold that scent from me." Inuyasha thought, running and jumping sure fire to the one his heart ached for.
Only in a few minutes did he spot the drenched girl in and alleyway from a building top. He jumped down, and landed a total of three feet away from her. "Kagome..."
No response. She didn't even seem to realize her was there. The hanyou stepped closer to her, and saw that instead of tears of water, tears of blood were raging from her swollen eyes.
But her eyes were something different. There was no joy in them. No happiness, no sorrow, no anger. Nothing. It was as if her emotions had been ripped from her, leaving Kagome with only her soul and memories.
She looked up at him, but her face was emotionless. It was the exact same as her eyes, which were still flowing blood.
'I'm so... dizzy...' Kagome thought, paling fast. Her head slumped down, and her eyes drooped shut, finally ending the river of blood.
The guilt Inuyasha felt was unparallel to anything he had ever felt before. "Oh shit, what have I done..." Slowly, he picked her up bridal style, and headed back to her house. "Oh Kagome, I only wanted to make you jealous, not this... How could I do this to you? How could I hurt the one I love the most?!... I really am a jack ass." Unknown or seen to him, the words he said subconsciously was heard by his one and only, and expression returned to her face. Sorrow, with hope.
