For Better or For Worse
Chapter forteen
"I'm home!" Kagome took off her shoes and ran into the kitchen.
Souta popped his head out from the corner of the kitchen. "Hey sis! What's up?"
"Nothing much squirt. How was school? Anyone call?"
Once in the kitchen she went passed her brother and the table and took a bite of his just made turkey sandwich.
"Hey that was mine!" Souta pouted.
"Too bad so sad Souta." She said and took another bite, holding it away from her brother's reach.
"So did anyone call?" she repeated her last question.
"Uh, I'm not sure. I need MY sandwich to remember."
"Oh no you don't. Tell me who called." Kagome said in a warning tone and took another bite.
"Not unless I get my sandwich!" Souta pouted.
"Well I already ate this one, so I'll make you another. Now who called?" Kagome said and went over to the kitchen counter to make her brother another sandwich.
She took another bite of the sandwich and grabbed a couple of pieces of bread.
"Sango and Rin called once, and Shippou called twice. They said to call them back immediately, something about someone being in trouble or something." Souta said as if it was nothing.
"In trouble? Souta that's not nothing! Here you make the rest of your sandwich, I have to call them!" Kagome said and dropped the turkey and ran upstairs to her room.
She slammed the door and ran towards the phone afraid of what she was about to hear.
But she had to find out and the intensity kept growing, so she dialed the number of her friend's phone and waited for an answer.
"Kagome finally!" screamed Sango.
"Sango what happened? My brother told me someone's in trouble."
"Hold on let me put in Miroku, Rin, and Shippou and I'll tell you."
"Ok just hurry."
"Got it. Be right back girl. Don't hang up."
"I won't."
With that the line was dead for a few seconds as Sango called Rin and Rin called Miroku and Miroku called Shippou. Sango put Kagome back on the line with everyone and heard how panicked the girl was.
"Ok so what's going on you guys?" Kagome said impatiently.
Sango started. "Well you know Inuyasha? Well we were saying how you two make a really good couple, but Rin wasn't that secure with him so she did some research on the kid's back round."
"You guys spied on Inuyasha!" Kagome said.
She was shocked by her friends, but was even more scared of what they had found.
"Ya, we found out why he's so careless and mean at times. Kagome he's had a hard childhood. When he was little, his parents…they…" Rin said but wasn't able to finish.
Shippou finished for her.
"His parents died when he was still young and his brother left him all by himself. A family found him and took care of him. When growing up he was very famous because the family that took him in is very wealthy and for them to have done such a thing was shocking to many people, well fans of his foster parents."
Sango told the rest.
"His foster parents died not too long ago and now he is the owner of the Tessiaga and Tensiaga Corp. There are rumors saying that the people that have gotten close to him have all ended up murdered or disappeared. Some reports say that after his last love died he moved and no one was able to get in touch with him. Kagome he's dangerous."
Kagome talked from here on.
"So what? Who cares how rich he is or what he owns! If he had something important that he wanted us to know I would like him to have told us not for us to have spied on him! I don't care about that shit! He our friend and we should like him no matter what!"
With that Kagome hung up the phone. They called back later on, but every time they called she never would pick up her phone.
They're probably calling to apologize. I should allow them to do that…it's just I'm so mad right now and I'm not sure why…I need some time to myself for a while…
Kagome sighed and sat on her computer chair and turned on her computer.
Loading Higarashi Settings read her computer screen.
I really need to get a new computer one of these days
Kagome had thought when after about ten minutes her settings came up on the screen.
She logged in her aim account and looked to see who was on.
Miroku, Keo, Ayame, Kouga, and Sango were on.
She just sighed and entered Inuyasha's screen name on her buddy list.
She wasn't sure what this feeling was that she was getting when she waited to see if he would appear on.
He wasn't on.
She sighed again and put her away message on, ignoring Sango, Miroku, and Kouga.
She turned in her chair to face her bed now and got up and laid on her bed.
She fell into a nice peaceful slumber for a good two hours, which worried her friends when she didn't answer.
They knew she wasn't that mad, because she could never hold a grudge that long, so when she wasn't answering her cell phone, home phone, and her computer it scared them greatly.
Kagome woke up by her cat's playful mood. Bouyo was wrestling with her hair and started to hit the top of her nose as if it was a little toy.
Kagome smiled and pet her cat and made her way to her computer yawning.
She was unaware of the time and forgot all about what had happened before.
She looked at her computer screen.
Sango had imed her about fifteen times, same for Miroku and Kouga about thirty.
They were worried what had happened to her.
Figures they'd be worried after what they'd just read
Kagome sighed.
The sound of someone signing on had reached her ears and she pooped her head up and looked at the screen.
Inuyasha signed on.
She took off her away message and went to go talk to him, but he beat her to it.
'Hey'
'Hey, what's up?'
'Nothing much. Bored. You?'
Kagome sighed.
'Same as you'
'That's kool.'
'I have a question'
'Ok shoot'
That last statement startled Kagome.
Calm down girl what the others said isn't true!
Kagome told herself and then replied.
'We're friends right?'
'Ya that's what I thought…unless you don't want to be…'
'Oh no, no Inuyasha I want to be. I was just making sure. I have another question.'
'Ok'
'If there was something important that would change my life, you'd tell me right?'
'What is this about Kag?'
'Just answer the question please Inuyasha.'
'Ok, ya I'd tell you. I promised to protect you.'
'Thanks. You don't know how much that means to me right now.'
'Uh, no problem Kag. Are you ok?'
'Ya, ya just tired I guess.'
'Uh and Kag?'
'Ya Inuyasha?'
'Sango's really worried about you. So are the others. I'm not sure what happened, but you gave them quite the scare. I think you should call them.'
'Ok thanks Inuyasha'
With that Kagome grabbed her phone and called Sango.
"Kagome! Where the hell have you fucken been!" Sango yelled.
Kagome just smiled as she listened to her friend blow off some steam.
Once she was done yelling Kagome asked, "Are you done?"
"Ya. Sorry about that I was just so scared, it's not like you that's all. What happened?"
"I fell asleep, I am really sorry about that."
"It's ok, as long as you're alright."
"Ya, are you online?"
"I'm going on right now. I'll talk to you there."
"Ok see ya!"
Kagome hanged up the phone and went back to her computer.
The whole night Kagome and her friends forgot all about the Inuyasha problem and all of them talked about their after school plans for Friday night in a chat.
