CHAPTER 25 - Hospital Heyday

"Well…" Kagome's head was on hyper speed, attempting to come up with some kind of alibi to tell Suuna. "I… Well, I live at a shrine."

"Wow, that's descriptive."

"I know, but…" She thought back. Back to her birthday what seemed like an eon ago, when she first stepped through time. When she first fiddled with Inuyasha's ears, and the very first sit. To when they met Nazuna in the mountains, and he said she smelled good. To when they met Shippou, Miroku, and Sango, and when she first discovered she loved Inuyasha. No matter how many times he committed himself to Kikyo, she could just never let him go.

Then back to reality. Suuna poked Kagome in the arm, reminding her that she was supposed to be talking. Thank Kami, the whole alibi idea just popped into her head. "I had been outside, tending to the tour shop thing, when Inuyasha came up. He asked me a whole lot of things about the shrine n' things, but that seemed to be the only thing he cared about; the shrine. At first, I thought he was just another tourist, and dismissed everything about him, until he showed up at my school as a new student. Inuyasha recognized me, and was really gruff towards me and pretty much everyone else. I had thought he was just a jerk, and he probably thought I was just some stupid girl.

"But after a while, our social studies teacher assigned a project for each of us to do together, which meant I had to go over to his house and vise a versa. So, I went to his apartment, and I found out that the only family Inuyasha has is a brother who hates him. I felt like I wanted to help him, to help him feel not alone.

"That afternoon and night, we became friends, and that's when I first got a crush on him. The next few weeks were wonderful, since he was becoming friends with my friends (Sango, Miroku, etc.) and he seemed to be getting closer to me. I loved it.

"But then, his ex showed up at my high school, and told him, practically in front of the entire school, that she still loved him. Kikyo, oh sorry, that's the name of his ex, kissed him right there, and I was just watching, and cried…" Kagome stifled a tear.

"He kissed back, and only once the rest of the people watching left did he realize I was there. Inuyasha didn't even think about the possibility that I had seen the whole thing, and sent Kikyo on her way. My heart has broken and mended about three billion times since then, but it still hurts…" Kagome looked down at the ground, keeping tears back, while being proud of herself of not slipping up, or breaking down already.

Suuna just looked at the teenager before her. It was so obvious that she loved him, even to herself, for whom only met Kagome a total of about two hours ago. Surly Inuyasha had to have figured this out already… right?

The nurse looked over to the boy on the hospital bed, thinking to herself… 'Hmm… I know just how this girl feels, considering what I went through as a teen, and even now… How can I help? Okay, good luck on that one… um… Er… Must think… don't look at the shiny…But it calls to me… ARGH! DAMN IT, I CAN'T THINK!!'

"Well…," Suuna began. "If I had any good advice that wasn't emotionally impossible for anyone, I would tell you. But, I'm fresh out of ideas."

"Uh… okay…"

Suuna thought for another sec, and got an idea of encouragement for the girl next to her. "Here." she held out a small paper, something written on it. Kagome took the paper, and realized that it was Suuna's phone number.

"If you have an emotional breakdown or want to celebrate a romantic breakthrough, don't hesitate a minute, kay?"

"Oh, thank you…"

Suuna fiddled with her hair for a minute until it was back in the obnoxiously tight bun, and turned to go out the door. But before doing so, she turned around to say something to Kagome, but couldn't. The girl was staring weepy eyed at Inuyasha, a sleeping soundly. The nurse walked out the door.

Kagome burst into bawling once Suuna was gone. Within a moment, she was clinging onto the hanyou, tears bursting from her eyes. "It's all my -gasp- fault. I'm - gasp- so sorry. I'm so sorry Inu - gasp- Yasha. I'm so sorry…" she fell down to the ground, emotionally exhausted from the short but extreme spaz she just had. Kagome lifted her hand to wipe away the tears, and could barely think. "Inuyasha… I love you…" she whispered in between staggered breath.

The heart rate meter jumped up from 100 to 150.

The miko stood up, and got back into the large chair nearby. She took the blanket off from the back of the chair, and wrapped it around herself. She fell asleep instantly.

- -Time skip- -

Near mid-night, Kagome woke up, bathroom calling her name. It was only then did she realize that she had fallen asleep in Inuyasha's hospital room. It was dark everywhere except for the hospital hallways.

She staggered from her chair to the other side of the room, to where the bathroom was. 'I am so glad he isn't sharing a room with anyone…'

After coming out from the closet like bathroom, Kagome headed back to her chair. But about half-way there, the miko tripped on some unseen object, and was flung onto the hospital bed, where the sleeping Inuyasha still lay. She was about three inches away from his face, only now noticing that the oxygen mask and etc. had been taken off of his face.

'Oh Kami… I can't kiss him… I can't… I can't… I ca- oh, what the hell am I thinking?!' Her lips pressed themselves against his, knowing only too well that he wouldn't kiss back, considering he was asleep. Kagome didn't care, since it felt so good anyway. (A/N - Tugs at those heart strings, doesn't it?)

She was oblivious that his heart rate just jumped from 100 (yes, it went back down again) to 246.

Kagome finally gasped for air, and pulled away. Her heart was racing, and she thought the entire hospital must have heard it thumping along.

She slipped off of the bed, walked back to the chair (avoiding the area of the tripping object), pulled the blanket around her, and closed her eyes. No sleep came though. Seriously, why would it?!

'I can't believe I just did that… Oh man, what is he going to do if he finds out?… Hold it, I just kissed Inuyasha… I JUST KISSED INUYASHA!!! HOLY CRAP, I JUST KISSED INUYASHA!!!!!!!' This time, she stood up, and did a little victory dance.

- - Time change - -

The sound of BEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! Awakened Kagome from her slumber. She looked up frantically, and saw the white haired and dog eared Inuyasha yanking off all of the wires and things on him. "Damn, is that annoying…"

"Inuyasha!"

The hanyou whirled around, and saw Kagome throwing herself into his arms. "What the…?!"

"I was so scarred!! I'm so sorry you took the hit!!" Her voice cracked, tears gushing from her eyes. "I'm so sorry!"

Inuyasha was dumbfounded. "S-Stop crying…"

"I can't!!!"

Suuna burst through the door, fear all over her face. The no heart rate thing is sure to send someone into a state of panic. (When a patient's heart rate goes to zero, it sends off an alarm in the room where nurses stay when not checking on patients. It is VERY loud.)

Her eyes popped open. The nurse, turned around, closed the door, made sure no one was around in the hallways, and then, "WHAT THE HELL?!

"Uh oh."

"Uh oh."

See, I told you that there would be a minor kiss scene in this fic.
