Chapter 6

Inuyasha's POV

FLASHBACK

I laughed hysterically as Kouga told me her weekend with her brothers, Ginta and Hakkaku; "I know, They are such idiots! And cowards. And have no respect to anyone!" She started chuckling to herself. Whoa, going a little to far. Yeah, I talked like that about Sesshoumaru but when I hear other people talk like that it's just plain rude! I forward my head toward the car window and sighed in boredom. We were on our way to a sushi restaurant. I looove sushi! And I supposed everybody else did too because then I would feel selfish.

We arrived at the sushi place about 10 minutes after and we all; Kouga, Sesshoumaru, Pa-pa, and I, hopped out of the car, smelling the fresh sushi waiting for us. I was personally excited because the family never got to go out to eat. Pa-pa always told me he was busy or couldn't afford the food. And the fact that MY best friend came with us was 5 times as better! I ran inside with Kouga's hand in mine and waited to be seated…

As we all ate, I noticed that Kouga was being quite. She looked like she was worried about something or felt alone and tired some. I scooted closer to her as Sesshoumaru and Pa-pa chatted away to themselves, "Something up?" I asked and she finally noticed I was concerned.

"Oh. Um…" She was obviously speechless or shy for some reason. Kouga then looked up at me and I saw her eyes begin to water.

What was wrong? I asked myself. She wasn't acting like this before. "It's something the matter?" I asked softly, trying not to get Pa into it.

She shook her head and rolled her eyes. A little bit of an attitude there…

It was two days after we had gotten into the fight about the secret that she WAS going to tell me but then decided to get pissy with me and not tell. We, of course got over it the next day but it still felt like she was disturbed about it. Every time I said something that reminded her about that day, she changed the subject immediately. It seemed that if I kept on going at it, she would give up holding it back and finally tell me…so she forced herself to stay off topic. I ignored it, as usual, but she didn't.

I was fed up with her attitude and she NEEDED to shape up. "Kouga." I shouted slightly. Now I was really pissed! "I'm sick of you acting like nothing has happened the past couple days. And I have to admit, I have been ignoring it too but YOU are the one forcing yourself into the darkness where you seem more and more miserable each day! And if you hadn't noticed, I've been getting on my last nerve! I thought we were friends…Best friends! Dammit Kouga, I'm worried. I'm worried about you!" I shot from my seat and tightened my fists.

She glanced at me for about 20 seconds, then turned her head back and acted like I wasn't talking to her.

What the fuck was her problem? I stepped a bit closer to her and finally…FINALLY slapped her across her face.

Kouga's face jolted back quickly, clenching her cheek were I slapped.

Pa-pa stood up, knocking his stool over, "INUYASHA!" He grabbed my wrist and yanked me to the side. Sesshoumaru was quite a sight, his eyes bold and wide as possible, his piece of seaweed falling off of his chopsticks.

I watched Kouga climb out of her seat, her voice a bit shaky from crying. She ran out the sushi bar, her head buried in her jacket.

"Kouga…" I started to whisper. I know, I know, a bit of a temper tantrum but she was warned. I finally ran out after her, slipping out of Pa-pa's hands. She stopped as I called her out but then started walking again.

Meanwhile, a drunk driver was headed down the street where Kouga was just ready to pass. A bright red Mercedes with it's head light shown bright, speeding about past 50 mph. I looked up to the left where the car was coming from and my eyes snapped at what I knew was going to happen. By this time, Kouga was already half way crossed the street. Why the hell didn't she notice it? I ran after her as fast as I could, catching her at barely at the nick-of-time…I was too late. My eyes suddenly sealed shut as I heard the cars pressure finally hit the breaks, us skidding on the tarp road. The car had just barely hit me, but hit Kouga…bad. I tried opening my eyes but I was to worried if I was still alive then her…What have I done?

END

I remember now…

I jolted up and placed my hand tight around my chest. My heart was pounding 10 times as fast as usual. What have I done? I slammed my fists on the cement of the park playground. Sesshoumaru was babysitting me because Pa decided I needed a break away from things. I swore I heard Pa-pa tell Sesshoumaru to keep me entertained at the park but he was more amused then I was. He sat there and made out with his girlfriend, gross.

Kouga--thank everything--was alive. She lied in the hospital, petrified from everything around her. I haven't seen her yet but the doctor told me she can't see anything too detailed for a while. in fact, she sits in a room covered in no color.

A tear slipped my eye that surprisingly I didn't notice. I wanted to see her! It was my fault I have every right to see her! I don't care if I ever went crazy for unknown! My life was complete with Kouga! And no-one understood that…not even Kouga.

About 3 weeks later, I got invited to go see Kouga who was still at the hospital. I jumped up with glee! It was horrible not seeing Kouga everyday at school, and it was the end of the school year so I don't think she would be coming back to the school because of absents.

My dad and I were driving to the hospital about 30 minutes after I got the great news and I was jumping up and down in my seatbelt. Once I see Kouga, I will suffocate her in hugs. And I wondered what her reaction would be seeing me. After that thought, my heart stopped for 2 seconds. What if she started freaking out? What if she is still mad? What if she never wanted to see me again?

What if…

I crawled out of the car seat and followed Pa-pa into the tall building. I started feel queasy suddenly and my legs went weak. C'mon, Inuyasha, You have to restrain yourself!

Pa-pa opened the thick door where Kouga was held in. My eyes tightened shut as I slowly found my way through the door. It was silent for a moment but then my dad's large hands grasped mine and my eyes shot open, looking up at him.

"I know your scared Son, but you need to get this over with." He whispered in my ear and I just stared at him like he was crazy…

But hew wasn't crazy, he was absolutely right! I needed to talk Kouga in a calm voice and talk to her things in person. I escaped a nod and walked over to the room covered in a curtain. I slowly pulled away the navy blue sheet and saw Kouga stare at me like I was staring at her. We stood there for about a whole 2 minutes until she motioned herself.

She leaned over and grasped my back into a tight hug. I felt her cold head on my bare shoulders but then hot wetness dripped onto my arms. She was crying…for what? I should be crying! I finally embraced her and closed my eyes.

"I'm sorry!" I screamed, many tears draining my head. I can't believe she forgave me for what I have done to her.

She nodded and giggled a little, "I'm sorry myself…But we'll make up all of that." She had a weak voice nailed into her throat like she was elder and had gave up on talking.

We finally let go of each others back and I smiled slightly, "Yeah! How about we go out this weekend with YOUR parents. And my dad can meet your dad! It would be great!" I suddenly had a blast of energy which freaked Kouga out. But then she had a glum frown and looked away from my eyes.

"Camuri." She whispered yet again.

"Y-yes?"

"I had something to tell you…" She focused her bright orbs on my and sighed in fright. "I don't have any parents. My parents were…were murdered." My eyes widened in extreme as my arms shook lightly. She brushed away her hair that was stuck to her face from the tears and I saw a large bruise across her cheek. It was quite faded but also quite noticeable. I wanted to ask her what happened but then it finally clicked to me…

FLASHBACK

I stepped a bit closer to her and finally slapped her across her face.

END

My head shook and I squeezed my ears shut, "No…NO! WHAT THE HELL IS WRING WITH ME!" I fell over and scram in the blankets beside Kouga. Her face was tightened in frustration and she knew she didn't want me to see that…

I was disgusted and I knew everybody else thought so too. And I had no right to live no longer.
