Life In The Fast Lane

Chapter Nine

Becoming Closer

--

It was the week of the Winter Mixer and everyone was preparing for it. Everyone was going shopping so that they'd look good. Everyone was also trying to find date so that they didn't have to stand against the loser wall. Nobody wants to be a loser, right?

--

Kagome and her friends were walking down the halls of school when an announcement came on the speakers.

"MY FELLOW CLASSMATES, WE HAVE CHOSEN THE THEME FOR THE MIXER THIS WEEKEND. AND THE LUCKY WINNING THEME IS...." She stopped to give the effect of suspense. "WINTER WONDERLAND!" everyone stopped in their tracks and cheered. "SINCE THE MIXER IS THIS WEEKEND WE WILL BE NEEDING VOLUNTEERS! ANYONE WHO WOULD LIKE TO HELP THEIR SCHOOL OUT, JUST COME TO THE DECORATING COMMITTEE MEETINGS ALL THIS WEEK. OH AND JUST A REMINDER...THE MIXER IS INFORMAL SO PLEASE, EVEN THOUGH IT'S A LITTLE FREE DRESS PLEASE, FOLLOW THE RESPECTABLE DRESS CODE. OH AND P.S. THIS ONE IS TO THE MALE POPULATION. BOYS, WE KNOW THIS IS A TIME WHERE YOU GET TO BE WITH YOUR GIRL AND YOU'RE SUPER EXCITED, BUT A LITTLE PIECE OF ADVICE: IT AIN'T LOVE WITHOUT THE GLOVE, BABY! THANK YOU FOR YOUR UNDIVIDED ATTENTION. HAVE A PEECHY-KEEN DAY!" the speakers clicked off and everyone started laughing and talking about the dance.

"Sounds promising. Now I really want to go." Inuyasha said sarcastically.

"Oh, I don't know Inuyasha. That last little announcement sounded promising."

"Pervert." Sango knocked him upside the head.

--

Inuyasha knocked on Kagome's apartment door at 7:30 sharp. He could hear the footsteps of someone coming to answer the door.

"Hey Inuyasha. Come on in. Kagome's in her room." Inuyasha nodded to Sota, who was clad in pajama pants and a large T-shirt and stepped over the threshold. "You want anything?"

"Nah, I'm good."

"Alright." He walked over to the entrance of the hallway. "Kagome! Inuyasha's here to pick you up!" her brother called.

Kagome looked herself over in her mirror and smiled. He hair was straight, held into a half-up. She wore blue faded jeans with a red belt, a red tank top, – showing off her naval and newest belly ring – and red and black Vans. Her makeup was light; a light beige colored eye shadow, a light blush to match and body shimmer on her exposed skin. She was ready now. After all, this was an informal dance. With one last check in the mirror, she hopped down the stairs to meet Inuyasha. She had to admit, he was looking good.

Inuyasha was wearing baggy black jeans and a red, unbuttoned, plaid, short-sleeved, collared shirt, with a white T-shirt underneath. And clean white tennis shoes on his feet finished up his cool and laidback style.

"Ready to go good looking?" she asked as she skipped happily over to him. He smiled, but also had to force his mouth from dropping. She looked great.

"Yeah. Let's go." He said, heading back to the door.

"Bye Sota!" Kagome called as she followed him out the door. They hopped into his RSX and headed off to their school for a good night of dancing.

--

"Where are they already?" Sango asked impatiently, pacing in front of Miroku.

"Uh, Sango. They're right there. Calm down." He pointed over to the parking lot, where Kagome and Inuyasha just pulled up. They got out and made their way over to Sango and Miroku.

"Hey guys. Been waiting long?" Inuyasha asked.

"Actually no. So let's get going!" Sango hooked arms with Kagome and walked a little further ahead of the boys.

"So man. What's good?" Miroku asked, looking ahead and keeping an eye on Sango.

"Uh. Nothing actually. Why?"

"Just wondering. You like Kagome, huh?" Inuyasha looked over at Miroku, feigning confusion.

"Dude, what are you talking about? We're just friends."

"Whatever you say. Hey, I wonder what they're talking about." Miroku said turning his attention back to the girls.

"Girl stuff." Inuyasha answered monotone. His mind wandered back to what Miroku said. How the hell did he find that out? He denies it every time someone brings it up. Which means even though he really does like her, he still had to fool everyone else at least for now. He definitely found Kagome attractive. She's gorgeous. No matter how many times a day she says she looks like shit. It's weird for him to admit, but maybe everyone is right. What was he really waiting for? They both liked each other, so why not make it official. Well, number one, because he doesn't know if she wanted the same thing and number two, because if he tells her and if she doesn't feel the same way then he doesn't want that to ruin their relationship. 'Maybe I should just stay low until something happens' he thought to himself.

Up with the girls, Sango and Kagome had been talking about completely random things, until Sango brought up the whole thing between her and Inuyasha.

"So Kagome. What's been crackin between you two love birds?"

"Nothing. Why?"

"Just wondering." She looked down at her nail completely avoiding having to answer questions.

"I'm not buying that shit. What have you heard?"

"Oh, nothing."

"Sango I'm going to strangle you.

"Jeez, rude much." She smiled over at Kagome – only to see her glaring madly. "Heh, girl you know I was just playin." She said nervously.

"How about we skip to the part where you tell me what you heard, hmm?"

"Sounds like a plan. Okay so all I heard was that you two are the new couple on the block. Just that, you two seem very comfortable with each other. That's all."

"Comfortable? What the hell is that supposed to mean?"

"I haven't a clue." Sango said looking away again. Kagome sighed, than it her.

"Wait a second. Are you hinting at the fact that you know what's going on indirectly?"

"Ah, you've figured it out young grasshopper." Sango said imitating an old man.

"Wow, so what really is going on? Is it all over the school? Oh no, what if Inuyasha finds out? He'll probably avoid me for the rest of my poor and miserable li-"

"Merciful heavens, where's the off button?" Sango muttered under her breath, though it was caught.

"Yeah, very funny. Now can you answer some questions?"

"Oh look. We're at the door. Got to go, sweetie. Bye!" she called leaving a very confused Kagome. Inuyasha came up behind her and gave her a little nudge towards the door.

"Hey Kagome. Stop daydreaming."

"Uh, yeah. Sorry." She turned her attention towards the dance. The techno lights were flashing and the music was blaring.

"Now this is what I call a dance!" Sango yelled over the music. She grabbed Kagome's hand and pulled her out to the dance floor. They both started moving their arms and swaying their hips to the music's beats. A lot of people around them were doing the bump and grind and some were even sweating already. Kagome almost felt as if she were in a real dance club. Inuyasha and Miroku sat down at a table and watched from a little ways away.

"Now I could get used to this." Miroku put his hands behind his head, a perverted grin plastered on his face. Inuyasha shook his head at his friend's antics, and tried to clear his mind. His eyes landed on Kagome, and he watched her sleek and graceful movements with a small smile on his face. The he noticed that both girls were coming towards them, and Kagome sat next to him with a grin on her face, as she reached on the table for a water bottle.

"This is so much fun. I haven't dance in a while." She smiled again turned towards Sango, who was sitting on Miroku's lap.

"Yeah I know. And we better enjoy it. We're seniors and this is one of our last dances."

"True, but then we'll be off to college where we can just party all the time." He said with a daydream look in his eye. Sango shook her head but smiled nonetheless.

"Higurashi?" Kagome froze and Sango and Miroku's smiles slipped off their faces like butter.

She knew exactly who it was, and she didn't want to turn around. She didn't want to make it true. The feeling in her stomach was a pit and it ached even more as she turned around and came face to face with the one boy she loved more than anything at one time. She found it hard to swallow and her eyes brimmed with tears, but she smiled anyway.

"Hi, Hojo." She said quietly. He turned to Sango and Miroku.

"Hey guys, nice to see you again." Miroku looked away and his jaw clenched. Sango just happened to find the ground surprisingly interesting.

"Hojo," He turned back to face Kagome and she bit her lip. "What are you doing here?"

"Can we talk? Please?" she looked over at Sango, and then Miroku, who in turn looked back at her with a sad look in their eyes.

Probably sharing pity for the pain she was feeling right now.

Finally, she looked over at Inuyasha. He was confused, it looked like. His gaze kept shifting between her and Hojo, his eyes calculating.

"Who the hell are you?" Hojo flinched, as if he just realized Inuyasha was there.

"Uh, I could ask the same question." Kagome stood up, Inuyasha following, to try and prevent a fight from starting.

"Sorry. Inuyasha, this is Hojo. Hojo this is Inuyasha." She made introductions. "And you already know Sango and Mirkou." She looked down but she didn't have to look up to know that Inuyasha was looking at her. She swallowed hard and took a deep breath.

"Kagome...can we please talk?" Hojo asked again.

"Dude, what the hell is so important that you need to talk to her right now?" Inuyasha said hotly.

"Look, I don't know what type of side attraction you are, but you don't matter to me. So I suggest you step down, before it gets ugly." Hojo said facing him. (A/N: I know so not Hojo right. They all are a little OOC)

"Was that a challenge?"

"Guys stop." Kagome said rubbing the bridge of her nose. All of this was a little too much for her. All the thumping music, the guys fighting...

...Hojo showing up out of nowhere...

"Yeah it was a challenge. How about we take it outside."

"Guys stop! Fuck, I can't take it anymore. Just shut the hell up." She turned toward Inuyasha. "Look I need to take care of something. Just meet me in the parking lot after the dance okay." Then she turned to Hojo. "Fine, we'll talk, but you better have a damn good reason for showing up like this." She turned on her heel and grabbed Hojo by the arm and dragged him out through the back door to the back of the gym to talk. Inuyasha sat down in his seat, and scowled.

"Anyone want to tell me what the hell is going on?" he breathed turning towards the couple in question.

"Uh...long story?" Miroku tried with a nervous laugh.

"Try again." He said bluntly. Miroku looked up at Sango, who was still staring after Kagome and Hojo.

"Okay, this is how it goes..."

--

"Hojo, what the hell are you doing here?" Kagome asked pacing in front of the boy, tears ready to spill at anytime. It seemed she didn't have her emotions in check lately.

"Look, I'm here doing a D.J. job. I just came over to say hi."

"You had really great timing." She sighed and walked over to the concrete wall, sliding down to her butt, and pulling her knees to her chest.

"Who's this Inuyasha guy?" Hojo sat down next to her, his back against the wall.

"It's not important."

"Well if he's something to you, then what I'm about to say is." Kagome looked over at him and gestured for him to continue.

What she didn't know is just how much she wouldn't want him to.

--

"Okay. So this Hobo guy is her ex-boyfriend?"

"Yeah and its Hojo."

"Yeah, whatever. So I'm still not getting it."

"Look, Inuyasha. Remember that one time at your house when we had that bonfire, and we were telling stories? Well okay, this is the same Hojo. The one that broke off everything because he had to move to America."

"Oh...so what's their relationship?" Miroku breathed in deeply and exchanged a look with Sango.

"Well..."

"Come on, I want it straight."

"Let's just say that if you weren't a part of the picture, and if he came back in a snap, they would probably pick up where they left off. And that was Kagome madly in love with him." he said slowly, watching Inuyasha's every movement.

He didn't say anything for a while, like he was contemplating the circumstances. Finally he looked back up at his two friends, a pained expression on his face.

"Do you think she still loves him?" he asked like a confused little kid. He looked away, crossing his arms, when they didn't say anything.

--

"Kagome, I want you to marry me and move back to America with me. We can pick up where we left off and be happy again. I was so miserable when I had to leave you. And now that I'm on my own and now that I'm done with school, I came back for you. I waited for you." Kagome looked back at him with her mouth ajar and her eyes wide.

"Hojo..." she breathed. And that was when he kissed her. She didn't know if he did it to change her mind or to let her know just how much he cared. It was soft and sweet, and silent tears ran down her face.

It hurt...it hurt so much. She couldn't even explain the pain she was feeling. It was horrible. And she felt her heart clench. All the memories.

All their memories.

They came back in a flash and Kagome just couldn't take that pain. What about Inuyasha? She kept asking herself. What about the feelings she had for him? What about the moments they had yet to experience? Kagome pulled away from him. She wanted to experience those moments. She wanted to be with Inuyasha.

"Hojo...I can't. It's not fair. You-you just can't come back after three years and expect me to drop everything. It's not fair for you to just come back and hurt me like this. What about everything I have here? I can't just leave it behind...I..."

"Kagome, I don't want you to drop everything. But, I just thought. I mean I..." he struggled for the right words. "I came back because I still love you. And the last words you said to me were that you love me too. That you'd love me forever."

"And I do...I still love you, I do. But you just can't do this."

"Kagome, if we were truly in love, we could pick up where we left off. It's like people say 'If you love someone, let them go, and if the come back, you were truly meant to be.'"

"Who the fuck says that Hojo?! I don't. No one I know does." She buried her head in her hands. "Hojo...I finally willed my heart to forget you. It's been three years and it took me one and a half to try and stop the hurt. I can't go back to that. What if you leave me again? I don't need that...no I couldn't handle it. And you're right. Inuyasha is special to me. I'm just starting to begin again. I've finally got my life together and I'm happy, Hojo. I'm happy with him. He treats me so good. And I don't want to leave that. I want to find out where it goes."

"Kagome, are you truly happy?" Hojo looked away from her and his gaze shifted to his hands.

"Yeah," she said weakly. "I really am."

"Then I'm happy. It will take a while for me to get over you, though I will never get over you completely. Just, take care of yourself, okay?" She nodded sadly, and he kissed her again, this one short and she knew it was a goodbye kiss. "I really do love you Kagome. Take care. Maybe I'll see you around." She nodded looking down at the ground, and Hojo disappeared through the doorway, leaving Kagome to herself. She looked at her watch. They only had about 45 min. left. Why not wallow in self-pity for the remainder of the time?

--

Kagome walked out the doors to the parking lot. The dance was about over anyway. So she decided to wait on the hood of Inuaysha's car. She let her hair down all the way, as a slight breeze blew past her. Her mind wandered to the night's events. 'Gods, what's going on? How could Hojo just come and ask me to marry him. Just when things were starting to get better, he comes and hurts me once more. I don't want to be with him...just Inuyasha.' She thought about that for a minute, and then took a deep breath of the crisp air around her. The moon was full and the night sky was clear with bright stars. She felt very tranquil out here. Everything was just the way she liked it.

"Except for the fact that Inuyasha isn't here." She whispered quietly. She didn't know where that came from, but his name calmed her. 'So does his eyes and voice and- wait a second. This isn't a really cheesy chick flick. I'm not supposed to fall for my best friend.' She sighed again as an image of Inuyasha's forlorn and confused face floated through her mind again. 'Gods he looked so beat up when I told him I wanted to talk to Hojo. I hope he's okay.' She wanted to make things better, but didn't know how. And to top off this wonderful sundae of goodness, one last thought popped into her mind. 'What's going to happen between me and Inuyasha?' she questioned herself.

--

"Kagome has been gone for a while. I'm going to leave now, so I'll see you guys later." He said to Sango and Miroku. Inuyasha stood up and headed out to the parking lot. When he got there he saw Kagome sitting one the hood of his car, obviously thinking deeply. But he also saw how beautiful she looked. The moon made her skin look radiant and the breeze lightly blowing dark locks of her hair around her face added to the perfect picture. He stored it away in his memories and smiled. He slowly walked up to his car and faced Kagome.

"Ready to go home?" she nodded smiling and hopped off the hood of his car to stand in front of him.

"Thank you." She said confusing him.

"For what?"

"For not beating Hojo to a pulp and for just going with me to the dance. I had a really good time, Inuyasha."

"No problem. I had a good time too." She stepped forward and wrapped her arms around his neck, pulling him closer.

"I'm happy with you." She looked up at him, her bright eyes shining.

"I'm happy with you too, Kagome."

After about 5 minutes of hugging and kissing and little remarks, they were off towards home.

--

"So Kagome...not to like...start anything, but," He started as he shifted a gear. "Who's this Hojo clown?" he asked. Of course he already knew the answer, but he wanted to hear it from her point of view. Kagome sighed. Might as well be honest with him right?

"He's my ex-boyfriend."

"And..." he glanced over at her for a moment. "What happened?"

"Uh...he had to move. His parents got some job in America and he left."

"Just like that?"

"Just like that." She looked out her window and watched the scenery fly by.

"So...there's nothing between the two of you. You're just friends?"

"Yeah..." she shrugged lightly and ran a hand through her hair, the silence of the car finally being recognized.

"Kagome..."

"What?"

"What happened?"

"I already told you Inuyasha."

"No...I mean tonight. What happened?" Kagome fidgeted with her fingers and thought up a good lie. All in all it came down to the all-around famous answer...

"Nothing."

"You suck at lying."

"I'm not."

"Oh, but you are. Why don't you tell me the truth?" he shifted down as they came to a stoplight.

"Nothing, Inuyasha."

"Don't lie. Just tell me what happened."

"For gods sake, Inuyasha, It's not important!" she snapped.

"Well it must be if you're so bent out of shape over it!" he snapped back. Why did he have to be right? He sped up as the light turned green and waited for an answer.

"Hojo asked me to marry him." suddenly the car stalled, before Inuyasha regained his composure and restarted it.

"Excuse me? Wanna run that by me again?" he asked looking over at her.

"He wanted me to marry him and go live in America with him." Inuyasha was silent as he took it in and his forehead creased. They drove in silence for a long time and they came to a route that Kagome recognized wasn't hers, but his. "Inuyasha...where are we going. You passed my house like five minutes ago." The only thing she got in return was a kind of grunt and Inuyasha continued driving, concentrating on the road. Finally they made it to his apartment building and he parked in his personalized space, shifting the car into neutral. He got out and just went into the elevator that would take them up to their floor. Kagome sighed and followed him. He wasn't talking, so he must have been in his own thoughts. They made it to his door, and he threw his keys in the direction of a table near the door, surprisingly making them land safely on the table's top. He kicked off his shoes and stretched. Then he went towards the kitchen.

Kagome bit her lip and walked in and then looked around the apartment, her hand on the doorframe of the kitchen entrance. Why did she feel so at home here? She shook her head slightly, pulling black locks of hair out of the low ponytail at the back of her neck. Inuyasha was searching through the fridge, so she turned and went into the living room, plopping down on his black leather couch. A few minutes later he came in with two sodas and handed her one, sitting on the other side of the couch. She looked down at the soda in her hands, and then at Inuyasha, who was purposely evading eye contact, as he reached for the remote and turned the T.V. on. Kagome frowned.

"Inuyasha..." he just kept on flipping through channels nonchalantly and acting as if she wasn't there. "Inu..." he still ignored her. Whatever. She opened her can of soda...only to have it burst out on her, spilling brown, fizzy liquid all over her hair and clothes. She jumped up from the couch in surprise.

"Oh my gosh. That was the funniest thing I've ever seen...Kami you should have seen your face. It was great!" Inuyasha was laughing hysterically.

"That was so cruel there aren't even words for it," she said as calmly as she could.

"No...no...it wasn't cruel...just hella funny." He said in between laughs. By now he should have been rolling on the floor.

"Well Inuyasha. Let me give you something else to laugh at." She turned so her sides were facing the couch and tilted her head. Next, with the biggest smile he'd ever seen her wear, she wrung out her hair on his very expensive fine Italian black leather couch. His mouth dropped open and his eyes went wide.

"Now that was cruel. There are only about ten of these in the country."

"Hmm...now it seems as though there are only nine."

"You're a bitch." He said calmly.

"And you're an Ass-Fuck. Shall we continue?" she raised an eyebrow and stomped off towards the bathroom, to take a shower.

"I didn't like the couch anyway!" he called after her soda drenched form, only to get a slammed door as a response. He sighed, after wincing, and called Rin to ask how to get soda out of a leather couch.

--

The water around her felt warm as it struck bare skin, water running down her sleek, well-toned body in droplets, and Kagome cleaned herself from Inuyasha's immature joke. She lay there in the tub, motionless, letting the water soak into her skin as if splashed all around her. She closed her eyes, angling her face, so the water splashed against her cheek. Raven black tresses floated out around her head as she bobbed her head down in the tepid water, momentarily. She came back up her black hair clinging to her cheeks.

Then she sighed.

They still needed to talk about what was going on between them now. Inuyasha hadn't said anything after that. And only after he sprayed her, did she get a little response.

She heard him go into his room and turn the T.V. on, whilst flopping down on his king size bed. She bit her lip, and lifted her feet out of the water, revealing ten painted black toenails.

"Inuyasha..." she whispered to herself. "What am I supposed to do with you?" she shook her head slightly and lifted herself out of the water, wrapping herself in a fluffy white towel. She combed her hair with a comb on the sink and wiped the mirror from its blanket of mist with her hand. She checked her reflection and then closed her eyes, rolling her head. Satisfied when her neck cracked, she shook out her shoulders then put her hand on the doorknob, ready to open it.

Then she heard Inuyasha's television click off and he turned on his radio. The song on just happened to be by Tyrese – Signs of Lovemaking. Hmm. Kagome smiled to herself and headed out of the misty bathroom and over to go knock on Inuyasha's bedroom door.

These are the signs of lovemaking

Are you that zodiac freak I been looking for

Girl you sending me

Signs of lovemakin

And you make me say

Ooooooooooooooooooh

But just as she lifted her hand to knock, the door swung open. He looked down at Kagome with a smile on his face. She blushed, noticing that he was wearing no shirt and only a pair of really baggy red sweatpants with his black and white boxers hanging out.

"Did you get all the soda out of your hair?"

"Shut up."

"Sorry, no can do. We need to talk about this ex-boyfriend thingy."

"No we don't."

"Yes we do. What happened?"

"Inuyasha, nothing..."

I met a Capricorn

I came here to get managed

Oh I know it's good when you start speakin Spanish (hay papi)

Very sexually

You full of energy

After I'm done

You still tellin me you want me'

I met a Gemini

Ooh what a sex drive

She wanted it from the front, back, left and the right

Baby I will guarantee

To give you everything your body's missin

"Kagome. Why can't you just be straight with me? I'm always straight with you."

"Bull-fucking-shit! Dude this is stupid. Nothing happened okay!"

"So wait. Let me get this straight." He paused for dramatic effect. "You guys were talking and then he asked you to marry him, and then he left? Wow that's anti-climatic."

"Shut up! You probably don't even know what anti-climatic means!"

"Kagome," Inuyasha sighed. "Look. Just tell me what happened and we can get over this." Tears started pooling in Kagome's eyes and she looked away.

"I said no, okay? I said no to the boy I once loved. I told him that I didn't need that pain anymore. I spent fucking one and a half years trying to get over him. How could I marry the guy that left bruises on my heart? How could I possibly go back to that after three years? And you wanna know why I said no? Because I wanna be with you!" her hand gripped tighter around the area where she was holding the towel to her body, and the tears spilled down her cheeks, her body shaking slightly from the cold and because she was upset.

These are the signs of lovemaking

Are you that zodiac freak I been looking for

Girl you sending me

Signs of lovemakin

And you make me say

Ooooooooooooooooooh

Inuyasha smiled slightly and ran his fingers through her damp hair, pulling her into a soft kiss.

"Stupid girl...I wanna be with you too." She nodded slowly and sniffled. "Please don't cry. I hate it when you cry." He whispered. Kagome shuffled in his embrace and looked up at him. He had a soft, small smile on his face and his eyes were filled with worry; a side that Inuyasha only showed to those closest to him. He affectionately cupped her face with both his hands and looked down on her.

Damn

How do I explain this next one?

This girl right here

Blew my mind

Let me explain

I met a Scorpio (damn)

She had no limit to where she'd go (oh yeah)

She was so damn sexual

She said baby, are you ready for me

I'll do anything to fulfill your needs

Tell me what you want

And I got you babe

Whisper in my ear

While I'm driving you crazy

I'll smack it from the side

While I'm grabbin them thighs

Now I know what zodiac sign

Kagome reached up with the hand not holding the towel and placed her hand on his cheek. She got up on her tippy-toes and placed kisses on his jaw, then his cheek, then the tip of his nose, and finally, deeply on the lips. She realized just how much she wanted him, and how much she wanted to be with him. Slowly, she started pushing him towards his bed.

These are the signs of lovemaking

Are you that zodiac freak I been looking for

Girl you sending me

Signs of lovemakin

Inuyasha grinned through the kiss. He wanted it as bad as she seemed to. And he knew that it was bound to happen sooner or later. There was sexual tension between the two 24/7. Wrapping his arms around her small waist, he then moved his hands to her hips, letting out a small moan.

"Kagome..." he broke the kiss reluctantly and took a breath, before Kagome put a finger to his lips.

"Don't talk, okay?" he nodded and she resumed kissing him, pushing him to what lay ahead of them...

...pure ecstasy...
