Kagome stood there, waiting for Sango in the parking lot of the gas station. She didn't want to be there anymore. This neighborhood wasn't the "ghetto", but filled with kids that thought that they were bad asses. She leaned up against the wall, sliding down until she was sitting. She wrapped her arms around her knees and started to cry.
The next week was hell for kagome. She was made fun of by
everybody for what Inu Yasha did to her. It only took about two days
for everybody to hear about it and remember the way things use to be
between them. She started to eat lunch by herself, trying to keep
Miroku and sango from being made fun of as well. It was the loneliest
week of her life.
It was now Friday, and for some reason
everything went back to normal; nobody was making fun of her. It was
as if they forgot about it, and loved her once again. Some even took
pity on her. What Kagome didn't know was that when Inu Yasha heard
somebody making fun of her or talking shit, he'd pull them into a
secluded area and beat them. People soon got the hint…she was his.
She sat in her first class a little confused. She pulled the
necklace that Inu Yasha gave her out of her backpack, trying to
decide weather or not to give it back. She gathered it I her hand and
held it there. She wanted to believe that he changed so badly. He was
acting as if he cared about her, like the whole bully thing was an
act to hide his true feelings. In all honestly she hoped it was so.
She had always had an interest in him. She knew that he didn't get
along with people; he was outcasted because he was a hanyou. Kagome
never cared; it didn't much matter to her.
Suddenly a shoebox
was dropped on her desk, making a loud noise. He jumped as she looked
up to see Inu Yasha standing there staring down at the. He smiled at
her and walked away. She just sat there somewhat startled.
"whats
in the box kagome?" asked a curious person behind her. "Not
another box of worms I hope, you screamed last time he did that"
the mystery man chuckled. She turned around a glared. The boy behind
her stopped laughing and sat back, unsure of what to do next. He
looked down at his paper and began to write.
Kagome opened the
shoebox only to be confused even more than she was before. Inside
there was a videotape. In sloppy handwriting was the word "truth".
She had no idea what that was. She'd find out later. She looked
into the box once again, only to find, every present that kagome ever
gave Inu Yasha. Her eyes filled with tears as she tried to fight them
back. There was a small folded piece of paper taped to the bottom of
the box. She pulled off the piece of tape and unfolded it.
Kagome,
Please, give me a chance…
Inu Yasha
P.S.
I hope you like it!
"Like what?" she asked herself. She
looked back into the box, only to see a small box rapped in beautiful
red paper. She smiled and picked it up. Carefully unwrapping, she
relieved a small box covered with fuzzy black material. She opened
the box, gasping. She didn't expect what she saw. Inside there was
a ring that matched her necklace. It was silver with a heart shaped
light blue jewel. In the middle of the jewel a K was carved. She
smiled as she put it on; a perfect fit.
For the rest of the day
she wore the ring and the necklace. Inu Yasha, who was following her,
noticed this. He smiled and ran down the hall at full speed laughing.
As soon as kagome walked into her house she ran to the living
room, turning on the tv. She wanted to see what was on that tape. He
pressed play.
the tape
Kagome had just run off
to use the rest room. Inu Yasha didn't stand there long before
being bothered by a girl named Kikyo.
"What do you want?" he
was not in the mood for her.
"Do you really have to ask?" she
smiled.
"Oh right, you want that dance I promised" he was
obviously not amused. She smiled and nodded. "Ok, but a quick one,
then you leave me alone ok" she nodded again. He came close, Inu
Yasha not taking any interest in Kikyo, stared at the bathroom doors,
hoping to see kagome come out, but she didn't. Suddenly Kikyo
pulled back and looked him in the eye. He stared at her with a
disgusted face. "Kikyo?" he asked. She glanced to the side and
saw kagome standing there. She pulled him down and kissed him. His
eyes grew huge, he pushed her away. Everybody started to laugh as he
turned to see kagome, heart broken. He took off running after her.
tape
Kagome sat there speechless; she didn't
know what to say.
Later that night kagome sat in her room and
stared at the ceiling, daydreaming about the handsome half-bread.
"Finally, he finally changed." She rolled over, only to hear a
rustle noise outside. She looked out her window, only to see a red
blur flying into the well house. She leaped out of bed and ran down
stares. It was late so everybody was already sleeping.
She ran
outside, into the night, and headed for the well house. She flung
open the door to see a very scared, oddly dressed, Inu Yasha standing
there. "ka-kagome?" she managed to squeak.
She gulped, "what
are you doing here? Why are you in my family's well house?" she
was more confused than anything. She looked at Inu Yasha's clothes
(the old red kimono) even more confused before, "what are you
wearing?" she asked in nothing more than a whisper.
"You
live…here?" his eyes were still huge.
"Yeah"
"That
can't be" he walked toward her and looked out the door to her
house. He pointed to it "you live there?"
"Yes"
"Are
you sure?"
"Positive"
"No" he didn't want to
believe her.
"Yes"
"That can't be"
"It's
true"
"Wait, are you sure that you are positive?"
"NO,
I LIVE IN A TREE!" she screamed.
Inu Yasha looked at her,
giving in. "how long have you lived there?" he asked calmly.
She
sighed, "since I was born"
"Oh" He looked away again. "I
visit this well almost every night"
Kagome looked at him
angrily. "You come to my home every night?"
"Yeah, I come
looking for a way home" he looked down.
"Home?" she didn't
understand
He looked up at her "I don't think I should tell
you but I will anyway." He sat down with his back against the wall.
Kagome followed. It was a long shot, but he had to tell somebody, and
who better to tell than the person that owned the well. "When I was
small I was alone in the world, my mother and father were dead and my
older brother hated me. I wondered the earth alone, scared. I
happened upon this clearing, and in the middle of this clearing was a
square well. I don't remember much after that. Something about a
demon attacking me and my brother showing up…blah blah blah…my
brother and I where grabbed and pulled down the well. We ended up
here." He looked up at kagome.
"What are you talking
about?"
He sighed and closed his eyes. He knew that she wasn't
going to believe him, but he was going to tell her anyway. "We were
pulled down the well and traveled 560 years to the future."
Kagome
looked at him like he lost it. She stood up and started to make her
way out of the hut. Inu Yasha moved to stand in front of her.
"Where
are you going?"
"You're obviously making something up to
get to me. I won't let you hurt me anymore"
He growled causing
her to step back. She lost her footing and fell down the stairs
hitting the well, causing her to fall down the well. Inu Yasha jumped
and grabbed her hand, but they were already halfway down. A blue
light engulfed them and then dissipated. Inu Yasha looked around. He
grabbed the shaking kagome and jumped out of the well only to stop
and look around. "It can't be" he took a step from
kagome.
"Where are we?" she stood and looked around.
"My
time" he took in a deep breath.
"Your time?"
"Yeah, I
don't know why I was pulled into your time, but I am home now" he
laughed as he started to run. He jumped up into a tree and flew threw
the air. Kagome watched as he laughed. He was jumping form
tree-to-tree, so high sometimes that she had trouble seeing him. He
landed softly right in front of kagome putting his arms around her
and smiling.
"Inu Yasha?" she stood there.
He pulled way,
"its you, you are the one that allowed me to pass. Why is that?"
"I
don't know, wait, it can't be me. You got threw the last time
without…. gasp" it hit her. Something that she for got many
years before. He looked down. "When I was 8 I went into the well
house for the first and only time. My grandfather had told me stories
of its magic. He thought that maybe it would help me. I was told that
I was in an arranged marriage, and that when I turn 17 I will be
given to an old family friend. They have much more money than we can
ever wish to have. They felt that I would be better off, but I wanted
love. I came here and wished..." she stopped and starred into the
forest. "I just wanted to be happy".
"What did you wish?"
he asked her. She smiled, obviously embarrassed.
