A/N: Well, here's another chapter of the long awaited CITD. Yeah!
Actually, no, because it hasn't even been two weeks. Well, maybe it will after I post this. Those of you who are reading this Authors Note, good job to you guys, because this is actually important. Well, I'm going on vacation for about 6 weeks, more or less, so you know what that means. I probably won't be updating, however, I might write a chapter in a notebook whenever there's nothing to do and quickly type it onto the computer, which could work. So whether I update or not, is totally up to how much free time I have, you guys can hope I have time and I'll hope I don't, lol, just kidding. Well, hope I update, if I don't, I'll make it up to you guys somehow, I swear.
Rae-Orri: Hahaha, well, here's more more more and more.
Demonspawn666: I love that one song by Breaking Benjamin, what's it called? Cold? Yeah, something like that. Lol, I usually update all my stories at the same time. Because…well, I have motivation for two-three days, and swoosh, all of them are updated, then I lose inspiration until the next time I update, lol.
Akiration: Thanks for the review!
ILOVEInuyasha07: I know! Don't you love those two movies! Lol, I want her to die too…but…I can't.
Cysso: Oh! There's another mistake! Thanks so much!
Miroku: Lol, thanks for the review!
A/N: Well, that's pretty much it, am I losing readers or something? Lol.
Crawling in the Dark
Chapter Twelve
"Caught up,
Got me feelin' it.
Caught up,
I don't know what it is.
(But she's got me twisted),
But it seems she got me twisted."
- Caught Up by Usher
Kagome stared into his eyes once again. "That's right Inuyasha, we meet again." She quickly regained herself. She can't look weak in front of him.
"Well, wanna come in?" Kagome could see the familiar smirk on his face.
"Actually, yes, I do want to come in, if you don't mind." Now they were acting like complete strangers.
Inuyasha let her in and went to the kitchen, "Well, make yourself at home, I need to make phone call."
Kagome nodded and watched him disappear into the bedroom.
She sat there and sighed, that was close. There was probably going to be a bunch of close ones in the near future. What was she going to do? She stared out the window, into the garden. Maybe if she just became friends with him, it'll be so much easier. But how could they become friends?
"Alright, I'm back."
That's the only way. She'll just have to try.
"So I heard you're playing Noah." Kagome wanted some small talk.
"And I heard you're playing Allie."
"Yeah and I think we should get to know each other, because it'll make the movie much easier."
Inuyasha laughed. That was probably the first time in many years she'd seen him laugh or smile. He changed, but what changed him? "Of course, I mean you don't want to kiss a complete stranger do you?"
"Not exactly a complete stranger." Kagome corrected.
"That's true, but it has been a while hasn't it?"
"Yeah, so what college are you studying at right now?"
"NYU, you?"
"No way, the NYU, as in right here?"
"Well, what other NYU would I be talking about?"
Now was the time for Kagome to laugh. She was starting to feel comfortable with him, which was strange, and too quick for her taste.
"Wow Inuyasha, I didn't know you could be that smart."
"Oh, thanks Kagome, shows how much you know me." Inuyasha smirked, "What college are you at?"
"UCLA." Kagome shrugged.
"That's far from here."
"Yeah, in California." So this means, after the movie, she'll probably never see him again.
"We're planning to go to California during the summer."
We? Who was we? His mom? His brother? "Who's we?" She asked, thinking she might regret it.
"Me and my girlfriend," Inuyasha decided to leave the fiancé part out. She didn't need to know that yet.
Kagome shrugged, a girlfriend wasn't too bad, she had a boyfriend herself, "What's her name?"
"Kikyo."
"Oh." Kagome stared down at the floor; it was really awkward talking about someone you knew a long time ago, especially someone that you hate.
There was a couple of seconds of silence; both of them were staring at different places. They didn't know what to say.
"Oh, look at the time, I gotta go now." Kagome suddenly stood up.
"Oh, ok." Inuyasha stood up also.
"Well, nice meeting you."
"You too."
With that, she left and walked into her room. The truth was that she didn't have to go, but she didn't want to hang around him any longer, it brought back so many memories.
She lost her train of thoughts when she heard the music blasting from next door again. Kagome sighed in frustration, she was so caught up that she totally forgot what she was there for in the first place, to tell the neighbor to turn down their music.
"Well, I'm not going back there again." She told herself.
&
"Hey guys, I'm back." Kagome went back into Sango and Ayame's room.
"Hey! Where have you been, we've been looking for you all afternoon." Ayame raised an eyebrow.
"Well, we moved to a different hotel."
"Really? Cool, which one?"
"Dinero."
Sango and Ayame both shrieked. "The Dinero?"
"Are there other Dineros'?" Kagome was starting to get confused.
"Don't tell me you haven't heard of the Dinero, that's like the most famous hotel in the country!"
"That's weird, I haven't even heard of it."
"Kagome, you've got to take us there sometime."
"Of course, once I get everything together. Right now, I have to move all my stuff from here to there."
"I wish I could help, but I've got practice in about ten minutes." Ayame got her violin.
"Yeah, we have to go right now, actually, sorry Kagome." Sango grabbed her music and they headed out the door.
"We'll be back in two hours, so we'll call you, and we could go out to dinner or something." Ayame smiled.
Kagome nodded and smiled. "Well, I'm gonna go get my bags, see you later guys."
"See ya."
&
Getting the bags from the old hotel to the new one was harder than she thought. It was hectic outside and she had two large bags. She couldn't get a taxi, because it was less than half a mile, but still, add all the people, traffic, noise…
Once she got in her room, she sighed, New York was so much different than Los Angeles. Sure, you'd imagine them about the same, but it was so much different.
Kagome wanted to sleep again, but she had work to do. The work was to read over the movie script a few times. This was her first movie, and she did not want to blow it, she wanted this movie to be as successful as it could be. She sighed and got to work.
&
The script turned out really good, not as boring as she expected. It was like a book and she got deep into it. Some parts even made her almost cry.
"Wow, that's deep." She said to herself and put the book down. What really got her is the old couples, how he still cared for her so much after all those years, and how she doesn't remember him at all. She shook her head and lied on her bed. This movie was going to be a hard one. It wasn't just a random action, adventure, romance flick. It was a very emotional, drama movie.
&
Inuyasha sat the movie script down. This was going to be hard. He was usually not the emotional type. Couldn't he just act in an action movie, it would have been so much better.
And Kagomes, she was going to be Allie, what on earth should he do? Every time he was near her, it felt strange; he couldn't quite put a finger on it.
Maybe if they just became friends, then maybe it'll work out and it wouldn't be 'strange' to be near her. Just maybe…oh well, what's the point, he was going to try. What's the worst thing that could happen? Fall in love? Yeah right! He was already in love with Kikyo!
&
Two days passed by like really quick. Everyone was busy with everything, so no one had anytime to think about anything.
The meeting started, and it soon will be followed by a crew dinner. Kagome was nervous yet anxious, what if she didn't make any friends?
"Alright, I'm sure everyone did their homework, so I'm not going to check." Nobunaga entered the stage. He received a lot of sighs after what he said. "First of all, I would like to announce our movie starts tomorrow, that's right, tomorrow. Maybe some of you don't know this, but when we make a movie, we don't make it in order, we make it to what's convenient first, therefore, I suggest you guys write this down somewhere."
Kagome took out a mini notebook, lucky for her she put it in there just incase.
"Tomorrow we'll be doing street scenes, Act one, scenes five, six, seven. Act two, scene one. We will start rehearsing at 6am sharp, if you don't make it on time, shame on you, you'll give this movie a bad name. Maybe we'll even replace you; I mean if you guys don't know, we have backups already planned."
Kagome gulped, what if she did badly? It was her first movie and she definitely didn't want to be replaced.
"So 6-8am are the rehearsals, 8-12 are makeup and stage set up, 12-2pm are more rehearsals, and then finally 2 to whenever we'll be done will be the real shooting."
Kagome was quickly trying to catch all that in her notebook, he spoke really quickly.
"Since the team dinner is tonight, I want everyone to relax, but when you get home, read over the scene lines and then sleep, you'll need it."
This was it; this is the start of a new life.
Sorry guys, I meant for the dinner to be in here too, so I can make the chapter long. But I really don't have time, I needa do some last minute packing and then needa sleep, because the airplane leaves early tomorrow. Sorry for any mistakes, I didn't check this over.
