Ok I realize that chapter 20 is supposed to be chapter 18 but I can't figure out how to work this new system on here but I'll figure it out I'm sure ok on with the story! DISCLAIMER: I don't own anything! Except Frog! I do not own any song lyrics presented in this story!
Kagome pulled away from her mom and said but wait mom. I just got a record deal, I found my friends, and I have Frog and Inuyasha here! I can't leave mom. Please!"
"I thought I saw Jeremy here. Where is he?" "Um right here." (A/N I just realized that I don't have a name for her and I can't keep calling her Kagome's mom. So…hmmm…Sarah.) Sarah hugged Frog and then said "And you must be Inuyasha." He nodded his head and shook her hand. "Well Kagome we can discuss things later. What did you say about a record deal!"
Kagome smiled and said "that's right! Me and Inuyasha both did. Just this afternoon! Isn't that great?"
"Yes honey of course! Look why don't we go home and talk about all of the things that we have missed and then tomorrow night all of your friends can come over and you can all hang out. Wont that be nice?"
"Yeah! Ok look Frog why don't you give Inuyasha a ride to his house and I will call you later?"
Frog smiled and agreed. "What are you gonna do?" Kagome looked at her mom and smiled a genuine smile. "I'm gonna take my mom to her house help her get her things, then we will go back to my house and we'll clean up and talk." "I'll see you tomorrow ok?"
"Ok."
They got into Kagome's car and headed to their destinations. Three hours later Sarah and Tyler were in bed asleep. Kagome found her purse which had been kicked under the couch, and pulled out her phone. She hit speed dial one and waited for Frog to answer. After 2 rings he picked up. "Hey! What did you want to talk to me about?"
"Wait, listen. Can you meet me down by the pier in a few minutes thanks bye!" Kagome didn't even wait for his answer then got in her car and left. It took Frog 10 minutes longer than Kagome to get there. He got out of his car and ran up to her. "What's wrong?"
Kagome was sitting on the edge of the dock with her feet in the water. "Oh nothing! I just wanted to talk to you. I'm sorry I didn't mean to worry you. I just thought that we needed to talk." He breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ok. What did you want to talk about?" A number of things actually but first I know that you have been feeling left out lately and the studio has asked both me and Inuyasha to come up with one of our own songs and I want you to be the first to hear mine. Then we can talk about some other things ok?"
"Ok. I guess so."
"Ok the name of it is 'Because of You' and I need you to tell me the truth about it ok? Tell me what you think." Frog took a deep breath and nodded his head.
I will not make the same mistakes that you did.
I will not let myself cause my heart so much misery.
I will not break the way you did you fell so hard.
I've learned the hard way to never let it get that far.
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
Because of you I learned to play on the same side so I don't get hurt.
Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me.
Because of you I am afraid.
I loose my way.
And it's not to long before you point it out.
I cannot cry.
Because you know that's weakness in your eyes.
I'm forced to fake a smile a laugh everyday of my life.
My heart cant possibly break when it wasn't even whole to start with.
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
Because of you I learned to play on the same so I don't get hurt.
Because of you I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone else around me.
Because of you I am afraid.
I watched you die.
I heard you cry every night in your sleep.
I was so young you should have known better than to lean on me.
You never thought of anyone else you just your pain.
And now I cry in the middle of the night for the same damn thing..
Because of you I never stray too far from the sidewalk.
Because of you I learned to play on the safe side so I don't get hurt.
Because of you I try my hardest to just forget everything.
Because of you I don't know how to let anyone else in.
Because of you I'm ashamed of my life because it's empty.
Because of you I am afraid.
Because of you.
Because of you.
When she was done singing she looked Frog in the eyes and noticed that he was holding breath. When she asked him about it, he exhaled and hugged her. "I know that you right your songs based on your emotions and I'm sorry you feel that way."
Kagome always had a certain feeling when she was with Frog. She hadn't felt in a while but all those feelings had come back to her and instead of pulling away from him like she did with everyone who wasn't Inuyasha. Frog kissed the top of her head and said that she looked beautiful. Kagome looked down at herself and smirked. She had on a regular pair of jeans, a black belt that had little circle holes in it, a wife beater and a black fox racing hooded sweatshirt over it.
They sat down on the edge of the dock and stuck their feet in the water. They talked all night until about 7:30 in the morning when Sarah called Kagome's cell phone wondering where she was. Kagome told and said not to worry that she would be home in a little bit.
They stood up to leave when suddenly Kagome hugged Frog. He wasn't expecting it at all. He usually is the one to hug her not the other way around. He smiled to the top of her head and mouthed the words 'I Love You'.
When Kagome got back she smiled at her mother and explained that her father hadn't really given a damn what she did so she's used to meeting Frog in the middle of the night. Sarah nodded her head and said, "Kagome I found a house for sale about 10 minutes from here. It's really nice and I put a deposit down on it. This way we can still say here but we don't have to live in this house. How does that sound?" Kagome smiled and said I say we pack up right now get as much stuff over there as possible, and have my sleep over there tonight. How's that sound!"
Sarah laughed and told her to go call all her friends and get as much help as she could. So for the next ten minutes she called Frog, Inuyasha, Sango, and Miroku. They spent the whole rest of the day moving things to the new house.
Once they were all settled in, they order three large pizzas and pigged out. Kagome looked around her and loved what she saw. Miroku was sitting with Sango and holding her hand. Inuyasha was sitting next to her and talking with Tyler and Frog. And her mother was sitting across from her clearly loving her surroundings.
Her mother seemed to be very relaxed with her and she thought now might be the perfect time to go shopping and to ask her for the tattoo that she wanted. "I don't know about you guys but I say us girls all go shopping! You guys can go to the arcade and hang out if you want but I defiantly think we should go shopping. Everyone agreed with her and they cleaned up their messes and left.
At the mall Kagome sprang the question on her mother about the tattoo and nearly shouted with glee when she agreed.
Walking hand in hand with Inuyasha, they walked into the tattoo place and saw Kikyo sitting in one of the chairs. She had completely changed her look from prep to punk and looked at Inuyasha with fake surprise. As if she had known that they would be there that night. Kagome, Miroku, and Inuyasha just stared at her.
"Oh wow, hi Inuyasha. What a surprise it is to see you here." Kagome looked as if she was ready to pounce. She glanced at Inuyasha who was staring at Kikyo with a strange look on his face. Frog noticed it and wished he could throttle him. He should have just walked away from there and pretended like it didn't mean anything to him. Can't he see how it's hurting her?
Inuyasha finally tore his eyes away from Kikyo and said "Um, yeah. Well see you later. Kagome kept her eyes low to the ground and walked away to go tell the guy what she wanted and where she wanted it. After an hour of unbelievable pain and torture Kagome left with a really cute baby Dumbo on her right shoulder. (A/N I'm getting this one soon!)
Still feeling a little upset with Inuyasha, Kagome lied and said she didn't feel well and wanted to lie down. An hour or so later, Inuyasha went upstairs to check on Kagome who had fallen asleep holding her diary open next to her. He started to smile. She had stopped writing in there when her mother had left and now that she as back she had started writing again. He moved to shut the book for her and noticed his name. He looked at the door and made sure that no one was coming. He knew he should read what it says but he was curious. 'I couldn't help but notice the look on Inuyasha's face when we saw Kikyo tonight. One of the reasons they broke up was because they were so different. She was prep and he was punk. But what is gonna happen now? They are both punk. What happens if Inuyasha leaves me for her. Can I survive losing another person that I love with all my heart and soul?'
Inuyasha sighed and thought of something great that would help show Kagome how much he really loved her. He ran downstairs and out the front door before anyone could even ask him what he was doing.
OK how is that! Lol I have more study halls now so I can work on the next chapter today as long as there is no classes in the library. I'll try ASAP. Hmmm a twist is coming!
