Be My Savior – InuYasha Fanfic
Chapter 8: Vanished…
That night, when Kagome and Kikyo returned home, Kagome tried to talk to InuYasha. He was sitting in one of the lounges staring out the window
"InuYasha? It's me, Kagome."
"…"
"I picked your tuxedo out today."
"…"
"It wasn't my original choice, but Kikyo didn't want you in a red tux."
"…"
Kagome's face saddened. She walked over to InuYasha, and sat in front of him. He didn't look at her.
"InuYasha…I'm sorry…"
This time he faced her.
"Are you? Because it really seemed to me like you made your feelings very clear."
He stood, and left the room. Kagome sat there silently.
-----------
Morning.
InuYasha has cooled down a little bit. He's still hurt, but ready to talk to Kagome again. He heads up to Kagome's room and knocks on the door.
"Kagome?"
No answer.
"Kagome? I'm sorry I bit your head off last night. I think I'm ready to talk now"
Nothing…
"C'mon Kagome, I'll make you pancakes!"
There's still no answer, so InuYasha opens her door, and enters. She isn't there, but there's a letter on the bedside table addressed to InuYasha.
"My dearest InuYasha,
It's clear that I'm no longer welcome here, so I've gone to find out who the father of my child is…
Please don't hate me for leaving you to Kikyo.
Love always…
Kagome"
InuYasha was shaking when he finished the letter.
'So now she fucking loves me…' he thought to himself.
He stormed downstairs, to where his father was sitting.
"Did you say something to her old man?"
InuTaisho calmly looked at his son from behind his newspaper.
"To who?"
"Kagome!"
"Why would I? She broke your heart my son…"
"Well she's gone now!"
"Hn?"
InuYasha handed his father the note.
"How ironic…she did love you after all. And now she's gone. Left you to Kikyo."
"I'm not marrying Kikyo! I'm going to find Kagome!"
"Oh, I'm afraid you have no choice in the matter son. There isn't a minister in the world who would marry you to Kagome unless they know I want you to marry her. You're stuck with Kikyo."
"I don't have to marry Kagome then! I'll just be with her forever!"
"How naïve of you son…I'll cut off all of your assets if you leave now."
"I don't need em. I'll get a job!"
"You forget what a powerful man I am, InuYasha."
"Did you ever think that's why that stupid hag Kikyo wants to marry me? So she can get her filthy mitts on all your money?"
"Nonsense…Kikyo is far more of a lady than that, and is far better suited for you than Kagome."
"I hate you old man!"
InuYasha shouted before running to his room.
Sesshoumaru heard the ruckus, and went to his younger brother's room to talk with him. He tried turning the door knob, but InuYasha had locked himself in there.
"InuYasha, won't you come out and talk to me?"
"No I won't! It's not fair! Our old man let you choose to marry whoever you want!"
"Brother…Rin didn't cause me to fail high school"
"Kagome didn't cause me to fail either!"
"I know that, but father doesn't see it that way."
"Our father is a wanker!"
"You silence those tones of disrespect. He may be harsh, but its still because of him that you're in this world."
"I know but-"
"-And if Kagome loves you, she'll come back. She won't want you to marry Kikyo. Not without telling you face to face how she feels."
"…"
"Just think on it InuYasha. Don't do anything irrational, and for goodness sake, stay on the estate site."
"Fine" InuYasha snorted unhappily. He hated the point that Sesshoumaru was making, but nonetheless, his brother was right. He wouldn't be helping Kagome by leaving.
So for almost a month, InuYasha waited around the estate, waiting to hear from Kagome. Then one day, almost a week before his wedding, InuYasha received a letter…
