Chapter 24
The next day Kagome got up early at 7 AM in the morning. She dressed up and ate her breakfast silently; she didn't want her family to awaken from yesterday's events. She then walked out the door and decided to go for a walk. Kagome saw the birds chirping and the sun shining. She then passed by the studio. She looked at the inside where memories flooded back to her.
She saw herself and Inuyasha dancing happily, practicing and having fun. Little tears fell down Kagome's cheek, that all that trouble and practicing had gone to waste. Without thinking she reached into her pocket and took out her key chain. She got out the second key that Inuyasha had given her months ago. She put it in the knob and heard a click. Kagome walked in and closed the door behind her. She sighed and turned on the lights.
She looked around her; she had failed her dream of being a dancer.
"I guess I wasn't made to dance" she cried to herself.
She wiped away the tears and looked around so more. But she then tripped over a wire and fell into a door. The door swung open exposing a dark room. Kagome opened the lights; it was the room that Inuyasha had made for her to practice her ballet dancing. She had been so busy with the competition, she hadn't have time to practice ballet in the room.
"Since I'm here" she sighed and stood on her tipy toes. She danced and pranced around the room.
Inuyasha had awakened at 7:10. He tossed and turned and shouted in his sleep, it's clear that Inuyasha didn't have a good sleep last night. Inuyasha dressed up and went down for breakfast. He sat down and ate his toast, and then Sesshoumaru came in the kitchen.
"Had a good night sleep" Sesshoumaru smirked, knowing that he didn't.
"Lay off" he growled
"Ah relax; I'll just pulling your chain" Sesshy placed 2 pieces of bread into the toaster.
"Then don't say anything" he muttered and bit into his toast. Sesshy ignored him and continued to talk.
"So, how was the dance last night?" he smiled coldly. Inuyasha narrowed his eyes and remained silent.
"Did you win?" he grinned. Inuyasha growled, his patient wearing thin from his brother's stupid questions. Inuyasha just wanted to forget yesterday, but his brother keeps bugging him about it.
"Oh so you lost?" Sesshoumaru asked. That got Inuyasha, he snapped and yelled.
"Sesshoumaru keep your big nose out of my business!" "I don't want to hear about yesterday ok" "So shut your big baka and leave me alone!" Inuyasha roared. Sesshoumaru kept his cool and took out his toast. He made himself coffee and drank it.
"How can I when that's all you've been yelling last night?" Sesshoumaru looked at him.
Inuyasha closed his mouth and put the remains of his toast in his mouth.
"I don't need this crap" was all Inuyasha said and walked out the kitchen.
"And where are you going?" Sesshy called from the kitchen
"I'm going to clear my head from the shit that you've put in my head" he yelled and slammed the door behind him.
Inuyasha walked around not knowing where his going. For some reason he was brought to the studio. He looked into it and felt the warm memories of him and Kagome dancing hand in hand with Miroku and Sango there. He then noticed the lights were on.
Inuyasha opened the door and walked inside. He was silent incase there was a robber inside. Inuyasha looked around him to see no one in sight. Inuyasha sighed, but then was back to alert when he heard taps to the floor with his sensitive ears. It lead him to the ballet room he arranged for Kagome. He opened the door to see Kagome dancing with tears running down her cheek.
"I have failed you dad" she cried.
Kagome then fell to the floor in exhaustion. She had pushed herself to dance her hardest, leaving her tired and exhausted on the floor. She cried in her hands as the pain rushed through her legs and body. She then felt a hand on her shoulder.
"No you didn't, I bet he's looking down at you proud of what you have become" Inuyasha said. Kagome jumped a bit surprised, but then saw it was just Inuyasha. Silence had bestowed on them, til they broke it after a minute or 2.
"What are you doing here" they both said unison. Kagome giggled that they were thinking the same thing. (You know the saying "Great minds think alike")
Kagome spoke up first. "I needed to think about things" "And I just ended up here" she shrugged, wiping away her tears.
"Same thing about me" Inuyasha chuckled and sat next to her. Kagome smiled and put her head down on Inuyasha's shoulder.
"Why are you crying" Inuyasha said sadly.
"I feel guilty that all the work we have done all these months has gone to waste" she felt her tears returning. "All because of me"
Inuyasha smelt her salty tears and looked at her. "No Kagome! Don't say that, it hasn't gone to waste we had fun and that's all that matters" Inuyasha smiled.
"But you really wanted to win that contest and I ruined it" "Maybe you would have done better with Kikyou as your partner" she said sadly and turned her head away from him.
"Wrong Kagome" he put his hand on her face and turned it to face him. "All the fun times with you and having to be with you, I think I rather win that than a silly dance contest" "And I'll tell you something, Kikyou could never do that as my partner" he smiled at her.
Hearing this, Kagome stopped crying and smiled. She threw her arms around Inuyasha and hugged him tightly.
"Thank you Inuyasha" she smiled and closed her eyes.
"Hey it's what I do" Inuyasha smiled and hugged her back.
"No, not just for that" she said breaking the hug.
"Huh?" Inuyasha was confused and looked into Kagome's beautiful eyes.
"I heard what you said last night, at my house" she whispered. Inuyasha then blushed madly.
"Y-You heard that?" Inuyasha said embarrassed
"Yea, I just want you to know that I feel the same way" she blushed. Inuyasha blushed in 9 different shades of red when he heard her words.
"What I'm trying to say is….I love you Inuyasha" Kagome looked into his golden orbs.
They moved closer to one another and soon their lips met. Inuyasha felt her warm lips against his. He licked her lips asking for an entrance to her mouth, which she gladly opened. Inuyasha's tongue explored Kagome's mouth as Kagome explored Inuyasha's. Kagome moaned a little at the taste of Inuyasha. Kagome leaned back as Inuyasha leaned forward to deepen the kiss. (Ok I'm not gonna be nasty so, there's no butt naked scenes) (Yea stop complaining I know you want it, but this is rated PG13 not Rated R, Lol)
Inuyasha and Kagome broke apart and were breathing hard, from the lack of air they had. The 2 blushed at the position they were in and got up. Kagome kissed Inuyasha on the cheek and giggled. Inuyasha was gonna go into another kiss when Kagome's phone rang.
"Damnit" Inuyasha mumbled as Kagome giggled and answered her phone.
"Hello?" Kagome answered
"Kagome this is mom, I need you to come home now!" her mother said happily.
"Why? What is it? Why are you so happy?" Kagome asked puzzled as she looked at Inuyasha who was interested in the conversation.
"No time! Come here now! Then we have to go to the mall later on, bring Inuyasha with you!" she said and hanged up.
"Mom? Mom?" Kagome said onto the dial tone phone. "I guess we have to go to my house, since my mom won't tell me the news" Kagome sighed turning off her phone.
"So, let's go" Inuyasha pulled her.
"Ok" she smiled. But before Inuyasha could walk out the door, Kagome pulled his sleeve. Inuyasha looked back at her.
"Thanks again" she smiled
"No problem" he smiled and kissed her on the lips and picked her up bridal style. She giggled as she looked at Inuyasha. Inuyasha locked the door and they were off to Kagome's house to find out what's the good news from Mrs. Higurashi.
