Oh... Hello.
Umm... What am I here for exactly? –looks at cue cards-
Oh yeah! I don't own Inuyasha!
Inuyasha sat in his apartment and sulked. There was no better word for the time spent feeling stupid and very sorry for himself. It was his fault though; he was the one to break up with Kagome in the first place. He had once thought Kikyou to be more suited for him back when he was still very immature. He sighed. Judging by his behavior today he still wasn't very mature. He had panicked. The moment he had been waiting most of his entire life for had finally come and what did he do? He choked.
He remembered the first time he had actually had some inkling to where she might have gotten to after she had disappeared without a trace.
He had been sitting in a hospital after another attempt at his own death which had failed once more, leafing through some magazine as he waited for his appointment with another
therapist who would tell him he was crazy. He saw her in that ad, her innocent face smiling up at him and knew that he had to find her. He couldn't continue living in and out of hospitals and slurping down pills for breakfast. He would find her, and wouldn't rest until she was wrapped in his arms where she belonged.
Sure, his plan sounded borderline stalker-like at the time, but he didn't stop to think. After getting discharged from the hospital he took the red-eye flight to Las Vegas and began his search on the strip. That's when he realized how damn big California was. She could be anywhere, he wasn't even sure if Las Vegas was where she lived. He hadn't brought very much money and spent the first few nights on the street with the never sleeping nighttime scene of Las Vegas.
He pretty much went on like that for a while, until he realized how stupid his plan was. There were millions of people, how could he find just one? He decided to settle down in a nice L.A suburb and get a job to try and pay off the mountains of debt he had accumulated over the years. He took a driver and assistant job that paid rather well and had almost forgotten about Kagome, until that fateful day.
One of his colleagues was ill and had a huge job appointment that day. It was driver and helper of a rich model, and Inuyasha accepted. Who would turn down the extra cash? That's when he saw her. Kagome. His goddess. The one he had uprooted his life for. Did he confess his love for her? Did he make her fall back in love with him? No. Like an idiot he did the first thing he could think of…and acted like a jack-ass. He got control of himself near the end, and was astonished that she didn't remember him. How could the girl he had been chasing after since high school not know who he was?
Maybe their relationship didn't mean anything to her after all…
Preview of next chapter:
My eyes seek reality,
My fingers seek my veins,
There's a dog at your back step,
He must come in from the rain.
A/N: Hey! Look at me! I'm updating! Yay! It's short again, I know! Maybe if I get a nice amount of reviews the next chapter will be longer... –hint hint- The preview of the next chapter is part of a song by Metallica called Low Man's Lyric.
