Chapter 9-Library Talk
Sunday morning dawned bright and early. Kagome yawned and looked around to see her alarm clock reading 8:30 am. 'Better get up. How did I wake up THIS early anyways?'
Kagome got dressed in a loose black t-shirt and white capris Sango had bought her. The shirt read: "Break their hearts, my pride and hope, break their hearts and have no mercy."
Turns out, Sango had had a boyfriend she didn't quite like back in the days. A selfish guy who thought the world revolved around himself. Kagome recalled that Sango had said all he did when she called was talk about himself...and all these new Gamecube games he'd gotten. Plus, after a while, their phone conversations seemed to become more distant and spacey. Sango had told Kagome that she didn't know what she was getting herself into, he seemed like such a sweet guy when they were just friends. Now Sango had some crazy delirium thinking that every guy she dated would be a wrong decision, but it seems Miroku had managed to get passed all that. 'Although I don't know HOW...the lecher.'
Kagome smiled in spite of how tired she was and got up to the bathroom to get ready for her day, not that it was special or anything.
When she got downstairs to cook breakfast, she was surprised to see Inuyasha standing in the living room.
"What are YOU doing here? Are a stalker or something? Who let you in? Don't tell you can pick locks! AHHHH! I'm not safe anywhere!"
"Actually, you're grandfather invited me in...he was muttering something about teenagers getting up late," Inuyasha smirked and motioned toward Kagome.
"I am not late! It's only nine! What the heck?"
"I thought we were going to the library? Don't you remember. I thought you wanted to hook up with Abe." Inuyasha said.
"For your information, the library opens at 10! Oh my god! You are such a dumbass!"
"Am not."
"Are too"
"No I'm not."
"You obviously are!"
"NO!!!!"
"What's with the racket?!" Souta walked into the room wearing his pjs and rubbing his eyes of all sleeping sand.
"Sorry, Souta, go back to bed now." Kagome ordered. Grabbing Inuyasha's hand, she said, "Come on, we better go before we wake grandpa and mom."
Kagome pulled Inuyasha to her doorstep and began, "INUYASHA!!!! WHY DID COME TO MY HOUSE?!!!!"
"I came to pick you up to go to the fucking library, ok?!"
"It's too early. You know that! Everybody knows that!!!! How can you be so stupid?!!!"
The argument continued for QUITE a while before Kagome's mother called her inside to get some breakfast. Time: 9:30.
"I'll just wait for you out here!" Inuyasha called out.
But no, Mrs. Higurashi, being the nice mother she is, invited Inuyasha to join them at the breakfast table.
Inuyasha smirked and stuck his tongue out at Kagome, "Thanks Mrs. H."
---------------
After breakfast, Kagome and Inuyasha headed to the library. "Let's walk, it's good exercise."
"I DID bring my car."
"Walking's better."
"You know you're just scared."
"Am not!"
"Are too!"
"NO!!!!!!!!!!!!"
"UH HUH!!!!"
"Ok, nevermind, let's just talk like two civilized people, ok? But we are NOT riding in that car! And if you INSIST upon it, I shall have no reason to go with you."
"Fine."
"So..."
"So..."
"What were we going to do at the library again?"
"Uh...get ABE to notice you?"
"Oh, um...yeah, right, of course." Kagome nodded her head. For a moment, she'd forgotten what they were going to the library for. 'How strange...'
After much grumbling on Inuyasha's part, they finally arrived at the library.
"Aww! My feet hurt!"
"Oh stop being such a baby!"
"I'm not a baby!"
"We only walked a little, Inuyasha, stop being ridiculously immature."
"I guess that's what you do if you're not rich enough to afford a car."
"INUYASH---oh look! We're here."
The pair stood in front of the double doors right outside of the library.
"Now, remember, don't give Abe that look that says, "You're what I dream about every night, type of look, got it?"
"I don't look at him like that! And I most definitely don't DREAM about him!"
Inuyasha frowned and ignored her, "GOT IT?!" He said forcefully.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever."
"No, you seem to be missing the point here," Inuyasha chided, "Kag, when you look at that guy, 'I have the biggest crush on you' look flashes in your eyes like a hot pink neon sign."
"It does not!"
"Look at me!"
Kagome narrowed her eyes and glowered at Inuyasha.
"You look seriously pissed at me," he muttered.
"That's because I AM seriously pissed at you!"
"Ok, great, now, back to the 'I don't give a shit about you'."
How could she keep forgetting? Inuyasha's interest in her, his willingness to help her, was all just a game designed to find out if he could show a geekette like her a good time. Now matter how much he was doing for her, when it came right down to it, it was just a deal. Inuyasha being the center of it. He was ALWAYS the focus of everything!
'I should've listened to Hojo. I got myself into this deal from the beginning knowing what Inuyasha was like. Now I can't get mad at him because he's not meeting my expectations.'
Kagome sighed.
"Now, that's better." Inuyasha draped his arm around Kagome's shoulder once again.
"Do you have to do that?" Kagome asked.
"Trust me, Kag, if he thinks I can't keep my hands off you, he'll ask you out!"
"Just like at the computer store, RIGHT!?" Kagome whispered, she didn't even realize how quiet she was talking since she was busying herself with trying to distract herself from how nice it felt to be wedged up next to him.
"Let's put that behind us. Remember my fortune? It could EASILY apply to you."
"That's cuz they're SUPPOSED to! They apply to EVERYONE!"
"No they don't," Inuyasha insisted.
"Inuyasha, look at me." Kagome slipped out from under his embrace and turned him to face her.
He looked. His eyes were intense. His lids were half lowered as if he was going to start dreaming about her any moment. He really did have pretty eyes, those golden orbs made Kagome feel like he was touching her heart and soul, just with one glance.
But this...it seemed more than that. It was a heated gaze hot enough to melt ice. His eyes held hers with a strong attraction that Kagome felt as if she would fall any moment...she seemed to have forgotten how to breathe correctly.
"Fortunes," Inuyasha suddenly rasped, as if he too had felt the magnetic attraction that was between them.
Kagome shook her head, breaking the connection they had shared just a moment before, "Fortunes," Kagome took in a lungful of air. It felt like she had been under water. "They're uh...designed so everyone can see themselves in them. It all depends on the perspective of things. It's really hard to make a good one, though."
"Whatever," Inuyasha said coolly as he put his arm around her shoulders (yes, again!). "Let's go inside already."
Kagome felt like her nerves were failing her, goosebumps broke out over her arms. Inuyasha pushed open the door for her without her having to ask him to. Maybe he could be trained, after all. He was so much like a little puppy.
Kagome forced herself to concentrate at the task at hand, she spotted Abe sitting at his usual table, head bent over a book, a pencil held ready to take some good notes. Her heart did a little somersault. But it didn't seem to be as deep as before. It made no sense to her. Abe was still her crush, wasn't it?
As soon as Inuyasha had spotted Abe, he took off towards the table. Kagome stood still, feet planted firmly on the ground, he was NOT going to take her with him. OH NO! Inuyasha's arm slipped off as he stopped and stared at her.
'I really can think a lot better without Inuyasha's scent draining out my senses.'
"Come on. This way." Kagome grabbed hold of Inuyasha's arm and dragged him over to where she usually sat and watched Abe work.
"No way! He can't notice you over there!"
Inuyasha led Kagome back over to their original destination, Abe's table. They sat down and Abe suddenly looked up. He looked annoyed.
Kagome flushed, 'How can Inuyasha just lean back in his chair and put his hand on MY chair so his fingers are toying with the ends of my hair. GOD! PLEASE MAKE SURE I DON'T DIE OF EMBARRASMENT!"
Kagome took a deep breath to calm herself and asked, "So, Abe, are you researching your history paper?"
"Yes," he answered shortly.
"So are we." Kagome took out her notebook and pencil and placed them on the table. Sure, Inuyasha had helped quite a bunch on her research, but she still needed some more info.
Abe didn't seemed to interested though. He returned to his note-taking.
'Wow, he's so focused. I wonder what it would be like for him to focus his attention intently on me?'
Inuyasha still had his arms around Kagome's shoulders, even though they were basically sitting side by side. Kagome could feel his gaze on her. It was so intense. Sort of like what she wanted from Abe. Like it had been in front of the library doors. But still...it wasn't real, just like having his arm around her was a complete and total lie. All a deception so Abe would notice her. Inuyasha was only doing his part of the bargain, and she would soon have to fulfill her side of it.
'I REALLY wish Abe would notice me so Inuyasha can just stop this charade game. Abe's the one I'm interested in. Abe's the one I want. But...'
Kagome wondered if Inuyasha saw anything in her other than the nerd. Did he really have the ability to look beyond appearances? Did he have the power to look inside of a person?
Suddenly, Inuyasha leaned close to her; Kagome could feel his warm breath skimming along her cheek. She shivered. She tried to focus on Abe, but Inuyasha was just too noticeable.
"You have really beautiful eyes," he whispered in her ear.
Kagome's eyes were a lot like her mother's. A sweet chocolate brown that seemed to twinkle when she was happy.
Abe glanced up and glared at Inuyasha. 'Look at ME!' Kagome screamed in her mind.
"You ever notice Kag's eyes?" Inuyasha asked, he asked it like there was truly something special about them.
Abe heaved a sigh. His concentration interrupted. It was so annoying when that happened. Kagome could sure relate.
She opened her mouth to apologize, but Inuyasha placed a clawed finger on her lips. It caused a strange tingle to course through them.
"You've got such an incredible mouth," he cooed in her ear. "I think about kissing you a lot........."
The lingering thought sent Kagome's imagination wild. Her breath backed up. It sounded so true. It sounded like he meant it. Like he actually did think of kissing her. She'd never really noticed Inuyasha's lips, but they looked VERY kissable. But, she felt like, HIS had MUCH more experience.
Abe slammed his book closed and gathered his stuff, before walking away, fuming.
Kagome was mortified.
"What is wrong with him, anyways!" Inuyasha ranted.
"Maybe we were disturbing him," Kagome suggested lightly. She was happy that her voice sounded at least HALF normal.
Inuyasha spun his head to look at her, offended, "I was just trying to help you get the guy notice you! GOD!"
"It would've been better if you had just kept your mouth shut," Kagome snapped at him.
"Whatever, let's leave."
Kagome flipped open her book. "You can go, I've gotta finish my research paper and an hour before my mom said she'd come to pick me up."
"But, we already finished that!!"
"But I'm not completely done with it yet!"
"I can walk you home," Inuyasha offered her. 'Since when did I offer nerds rides freely?'
Kagome just shook her head and gave Inuyasha a smile, "No thanks."
