(((Chapter 19 )))
(( Dedicated to Punkgurl2582 for reviewing 18 times in a row! ))
Morning the next day, Kagome woke up and walked downstairs. It was unusually quiet. Where did everyone go? There was supposed to be noise and sounds of breakfast cooking and…oh. The clock read 1:00. So it wasn't as early morning as she had thought and it wasn't exactly morning either.
Looking around her kitchen she saw the flowered sheet of paper her mom often used for shopping lists. Kagome took it off the fridge and read to herself :
Morning Kagome! We have left to take Souta to the movies with his friends. I didn't trust Grandpa to take him there by himself so I will be staying with Souta throughout the movie. Take care!
Mom xox,
Oh, and I left some breakfast for you in the fridge.
And then it ended. Taking a step back so she could open the fridge, Kagome looked inside for her…well lunch now. It consisted of an omelette, bacon and ham with a glass of milk on the side. She reheated the food and started drinking her milk. She was done her drink the same time her food was done in the microwave. Kagome took her lunch to the table and poured herself another glass…
It was then that she saw that quick flash of red and wondered what on Earth it was, but she ignored it.
"Probably some squirel…"
But the thought kept nagging her all day, What was that blur of red? Squire;s are definitely not red. And they do not fly past at those rates however fast squirels are. Curious about that strange sighting, Kagome stuck her head out in the direction she saw it in. And then she screamed.
"KYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA"
The thing in red was sitting in her tree, now wearing a stupefied startled expression.
"SHUT UP!"
Kagome stopped instantly. She could recognize that voice anywhere. But why…how…?
"I-I-Inuyasha?"
"Who else?"
"What are you…? How did..?"
As if knowing what she was about to ask Inuyasha reached in behind the colloar of his shirt and pulled out a necklace. It had black beads and a fang every 5 beads or so. Kagome leaned farther out her window in an attempt to get a better look at it. But she leaned out too far and…
Kagome wasn't screaming when she fell, she screamed when she landed. Instead of feeling sharp pains throughout her body and in her spine she landed on what felt a heck of a lot softer than the grass. That she didn't expect.
"Do you scream at everything or do you only scream at me?"
Kagome looked at her saviour, Inuyasha. Well who else?
"T-Thanks.."
"Keh. Can't let you die all the sudden."
Inuyasha carried her, bridal style, back up to the window of her room. In one big leap he landed in the tree she found him in earlier and let her off, carefully placeing her over the edge of her window sill. That expiriance left her a little more than shocked. Kagome climbed shakily back into her room and laid down on her bed before rememebring Inuyasha was still around.
"Inuyasha? A-Are you still there?"
Inuyasha poked his head through the window and looked around. She had a clean room. Nothing like the houses in Feudal Japan. It took him ages to sift through all the suffocating smells in her era, despite the fatc that her house was actually only a few minutes away; few seconds away for Inuyasha.
"What do you want now?"
"Just wanted to know if you wanted to come in?"
Inuyasha didn't answer. Instead he swung himself through the window and neatly landed by Kagome's bed. He walked around her room and looked into the vanity that stood on the other wall. Inuyasha took a careful look at all the things that Kagome forgot to put away.
"What's…?"
Kagome was prepared for the questions and all the what's this' so she decided to give answer everytime he held something up.
"Lipstick. Eye Shadow. Brush. Eye Shadow. Eye Shadow. Chapstick. Blush. Lipstick."
"You said Eye Shadow and Lipstick more than once. But these two things," He held up the two different shades of lipstick, "Do not look the same to me."
"They are the same things," Kagome started. How was she supposed to explain this one? "Both those tubes are used in the same way. They only have different colours."
Inuyasha gave her a questioning look before returning to the counter to hold up the rest of the items.
It was 4:30 When Kagome's family finally came home. Inuyasha had gone through most of the stuff in her room.
"Clock…"
"What's the difference between a Clock and a Watch?"
"Watches go around your wrist." Kagome gestured to her own wrist and pointed to the watch she was wearing. And that's when she noticed the sounds of her family coming through the door. Kagome had forgotten all about them!
"Oh No! They're home!"
"Who's home?"
"Mom! Where am I going to hide you? Where do you fit..?"
The sound of her brothers footsteps were getting louder and coming closer, meaning he was coming up the stairs and with something to tell her. Quickly Kagome shoved Inuyasha into the nearest thing; the closet. She stuffed him inside and shut the door just as the door to her own bedroom flung open. Kagome tried to casually walk over to her bed and sit down without acting too suspicious.
What if her brother finds out and tells everyone? Oh yeah mom, I have a half-demon friend from feudal Japan I would like you to meet…
Kagome shook off the thought of her mom screaming and concentrated on what Souta was trying to tell her. Something about punch and kicking. There was the random sound effect mixed in there. One could only guess he went to watch an action movie. He was always like this when he got back.
At dinner that night Souta was still talking about the movie. Kagome's mom just smiled and nodded while Grandpa also did the same thing. They both say the same things too.
"Oh yes, I remember that part." And walks away trying to avoid ever needed to talk about the movie again. That was the problem with Souta. He gets way too obsessive and that's also the reason why he should never see Inuyasha…Incase he decides to idolize him. Kagome only needed one Inuyasha around. There was no way she could handle two. After dinner, Kagome rushed up the stairs and into her room to grab the necessary things to take a shower with. Listening to Souta all night was giving her a headache.
Kagome opened the door to her room then opened the door to her closet, Then she saw Inuyasha. Kagome let out a little yelp, she had completely forgotten about the poor guy! Inuyasha stumbled around a bit before squinting. It was way brighter out in her room than inside her closet.
"Oh My God! Inuyasha! I- I'm SO SORRY!"
Kagome ran forward and led Inuyasha to her bed where he just kind of fell over. Was he hungry? What if he just died from starvation right there? Who knows how much he eats back in his time. Kagome ran forward to the boy laying face down on her bed and poked him. Inuyasha grunted and refused to move from his spot on the matress.
"Are you hungry? Did you need something? Water? Chips? …Ramen."
Inuyasha flipped over immediately and looked at her. She just said that word. Well at least she woke him up and he's not dead…Kagome rolled her eyes at him and began walking downstairs to prepare the noodles, completely forgetting about her shower. Her mom saw her preparing the instant stuff and was a bit puzzled. They did just finish eating dinner.
"Kagome…are you still hungry?"
"Hmm..? Oh! Mom! Umm.. Actually not really, I'm just making it incase I get hungry later on. I plan to study for the rest of tonight."
"Oh…"
Well it wasn't a complete lie. She was planning on studying, and with her mid term coming up she didn't know if she could still pass Gr.10. Kagome brought the steaming cup of Ramen up on a tray along with some cookies and other drinks. Figured she would have something too. Kagome didn't even need to open the door. Apparently Inuyasha heard her coming up the stairs and being the "gentleman" he was opened the door for her to step in. She just hoped that no one saw him.
Kagome set down the tray and no sooner than that the cup was gone along with a few biscuits. Sighing, she went over to her desk and took out her books, This was going to be some night.
It wasn't until midnight when the question struck her. Where was Inuyasha going to sleep! She can't just kick him out of the house… Turning around she looked over at Inuyasha who seemed to already have answered her question.
The guy was sleeping in her bed! He was even under the sheets! Inuyasha had his eyes closed and was sleeping like a baby. In her bed. Kagome meerly grunted and tried to push Inuyasha over. Just because he was sleeping in her bed it wasn't going to stop her from crawling in too. Unfortunately, the hanyou was too heavy for the poor girl so she just took a side and faced another wall.
It was weird sharing her bed with someone else. It was almost like she was being restricted. If Kagome ever felt like stretching her limbs out because of the major studying session she just finished…well she couldn't because Inuyasha was blocking her way.
"Well…at least he doesn't snore. And he is a pretty still sleeper…Doesn't hog up all the sheets…"
Kagome avoided looking at his sleeping form, just incase she would fall for him. Kagome did not want to fall in love with someone she was supposed to kill before.
"That would be like saying he's hot and sexy…" Kagome joked to herself. "But he IS hot and sexy…" "No. I'm not going to have a conversation with myself." "Who says?" "Ugh whatever." "Haha you agreed! "
Kagome continued to ignore the voice in her head until it gave up and went away. She wasn't about to converse with someone that didn't have a body. Herself included. There was room for only one Kagome and that was her.
((Morning))
Kag yawned and stretched. She punched Inuyasha in the head.
"OwWww…"
"Oh Morning Inuyasha…huh! Naani? Inuyasha!"
"Forgot about me again huh?"
Kagome then realised she slept with him. It didn't matter that they didn't get physical she shared a bed with a boy. Not just any boy, Inuyasha. Kagome started blushing and was wondering how he could so calm at a moment like this. Downstairs she could hear the usual sounds of a Sunday morning. Breakfast cooking and…Kagome checked the clock beside her. It was still breakfast right?
Nope. The clock read 12:30. So it was the sound of Lunch cooking downstairs, not Breakfast. Oh how she missed the sounds of breakfast… she alaways missed it now. Then Kagome realised…what if her mom had come in to wake her up and then…? Then…saw her sharing a bed with some guy?
Blood rushed to her face again as she imagined her mom was a shocked expression stuck on her face. She was innocent! Her, Kagome Higurashi would never just…just do 'it' with just any random guy! Kagome got out of the bed and made her way to the bathroom. Despite having to share the bed with some guy she only just gotten to know better, Kagome slept well.
Inuyasha woke up a few minutes after Kagome and realised her half of the bed was empty. He sat up straight right away and looked around. No, she didn't fall off the bed so where could she have gone? What if someone decides to come in? Where was he to hide? In the closet again…? Inuyasha looked all around her room. Under the bed, under the sheets? Even out the window but no luck, Kagome was no where to be found. Just as Inuyasha was about to go to his last hiding place (closet) the door opened and in walked Kagome. She had already freshened up and changed her clothes.
She was now wearing a tank top and a pair of shorts. A blush rose to the hanyou's face. People in Sengoku jidai did not wear things like that everyday. He had only just gotten used to her schoolgirl uniform and now this? Kagome gave him a weird look and he gave her a 'Keh' he wasn't going to give any hint of emotion away.
The girl just shrugged and began heading downstairs. She paused when she noticed Inuyasha wasn't following her. Oh. Right he couldn't. Kagome ran back up the stairs to her room and told Inuyasha to hold on, she wouldn't forget this time. Inuyasha gave her a 'yeah-right' look but still went into the closet without too much fuss.
Everyone downstairs were eating sandwiches. When Kagome got downstairs she was offered one but she took two instead. There was still enough for the others to have seconds. Kagome answered the puzzled looks with,
"I'm feeling a little more hungry than usual."
She was known not to eat a lot. Shrugging it off, her family started eating again, like nothing out of the ordinairy happened. Kagome took this moment to dash up the stairs and back into her room. She slid open her closet door and…? Inuyasha wasn't there! Kagome whirled around, where could he have gone? Hadn't she told him specifically to stay put? Maybe he thought she was going to forget about him again and found a more comfortable place to hide…
"Inuyasha!" Kagome whispered loudly, she didn't want her family to wonder why the heck she was yelling 'Inuyasha' all the sudden.
"Inuyash-" And there he was, relazing in the shade of the tree outside her window. He was hidden from people outside, thanks to the leaves. But how they managed to conceal a bright red haori was all a mystery to Kagome. She was surprised that the media havn't gathered around her house yet and pointing up the tree.
She got his attention by waving the sandwich in front of him. It was immediately snatched away from her. Kagome ushered the boy into her room. He was already finished half of the sandwich by the time he got in. Kagome sighed heavily and leaned against the door incase anyone wanted to talk to her. She didn't want anyone coming in right now. The school-girl watched the hanyou polish off the rest of the bread and waited until he did something other than eating…
"What?" Inuyasha looked at Kagome who was still staring at him.
"Nothing."
"Keh. So did you get the ramen yet? Can we go back now? Shikon Shards aren't just gonna find themselves."
"Later."
"Later! What's that supposed to mean?"
"It means Later."
"What about NOW"
"What about…no."
Inuyasha growled and gave up. This was a pointless argument and he was losing. Kagome got up from where she was leaning against the door. She wanted to sit somewhere else. There floor was getting too hard. Kagome looked at Inuyasha's dejected face and gave in. His pouts could get her anywhere. She hated that.
"Fine. Let's go get some ramen."
"Really?"
"Yeah. Common."
Inuyasha eagerly bounded out behind her but was stopped when Kagome held a baseball cap out to him. He looked at it with a confused look plastered on his face.
"What…is that!"
"A cap. It's not hallowe'en. You can't walk around with dog ears. So put this on your head!"
"Keh." Inuaysha reluctantly did as he was told. He wanted to go get the noodles as soon as he could!
Kagome was about to continue down the steps when she remembered that her family didn't know about Inuyasha…what a shock it would be for them if they found Kagome walking down the stairs with some stranger that appeared out of no where? Inuyasha seemed to get the message. He took hold of Kagome's arm and lifted her, bridal style. He was going to jump out the window of her room.
As his other arm looped underneath her knees, Kagome couldn't help but blush, this was a little too intimate for her…well it was intimate until he leaped out the window. She screamed all the way down. Kagome felt weightless…it was like the ride, Dropzone. When Inuyasha landed he put Kagome down on her feet and waited for her to come out of her initial shock. It wasn't everyday that Kagome got to fly out from her window in the arms of some boy.
After recovering, she led Inuyasha to the grocery store. If anyone asked about the silver hair…he dyed it to look like…Inuyasha. The half-demon from the Feudal Era. And the kimono? Umm.. she could say he borrowed it from the shrine.
"There should be a few in Grandpa's storage…Kimonos…hmm…well hopefully they won't ask about it."
End
They went grocery shopping!

Note: Dropzone is a ride that can be found at many different amusement parks (Paramount Canada's Wonderland for example) Dropzone is a ride shaped like a tower, there are seats on all 4 sides of it and you steadily go up until you reach the very top (which is usually really high up) and … it goes straight down at really fast rates from there.
Anyways… R&R thanks!
