Chapter Ten: Boxers and Painkillers
Unaware that she had yet to stop screaming, Kagome starred with horror, shock, and embarrassment at the two pieces of clothing hanging limply from her ceiling fan, a note attached. Sure the pink was a bit overwhelming, but this was just too much.
"Would you stop screaming wench!?" Inuyasha yelled from the hall as he made his way over to her room with his older brother just inches behind him. What they saw when they finally reached the doorway made both their faces turn matching crimson colours.
On the far left wing of the fan hung a pair of shiny, silk blue boxers with little yellow smiley faces all over it. On the far right were a similar pair except red in colour with little white puppy faces covering it. From the center hung a big white board with large black letters. It read:
'HOPE YOU LIKE THIS LITTLE GIFT! BET YOU NEVER GUESSED THE GREAT SESSHOMARU AND INUYASHA WORE SMILEY AND PUPPY BOXERS! ^_~ LOVE RIN AND FRIENDS!
- - - SESSHOMARU INUYASHA - - -
Kagome, who had stopped screaming in order to read the note, turned around to look at the two stunned brothers. Both were starring at their underwear with wide eyes.
"Sesshomaru," Inuyasha began. "Next time you invite Rin over, you better keep her the hell away from me…"
"Oh, don't worry little brother. Rin won't be visiting here for a long time."
"Umm… I'll just leave you two to take your boxers out of my room. I'm going to have a bath," said Kagome as she pushed past the boxer glued brothers with her towel.
~*~
Kagome came back into her room feeling refreshed and healthier. The effects of her hangover were beginning to fade. The boxers and note that had previously hung from her fan had now been removed. All was silent except for the distant sound of the television down the hall.
Kagome contemplated on all that had happened. She had been turned into a talking chicken at the student body's amusement, her family had been involved in a serious accident and were in the hospital, she had been sent to live with her favourite person to hate, seen that said person's butt, had apparently gotten drunk, and later received the after effects all in a span of less than three days. What was to come now? She was to return to school the next day. Would everyone already know about her current living conditions and be gossiping at that very moment? Or would they all be none the wiser to her life? The only person Kagome could think of who could actually have a clue to her whereabouts was Kikyo, and all she knew was that there was a mysterious girl who lost her bra living with her boyfriend. 'She had it coming,' Kagome thought with a smirk.
Once she was dressed, Kagome sat down on her comfy pink bed and looked around her pretty pink room.
"Wow. I've never seen so much pink in one place before in my life," she mumbled to herself. "I'm probably never going to want to see it ever again by the time I leave…"
While glancing around her room, she spotted a fluffy…pink phone. "Hmm…I guess I could call Sango and ask her how my family's doing…"
"He…ll…o?"
"Sango? It's Kagome. Are you all right?"
"Oh, Kagome! Sorry, I just spent the last… ten minutes trying to catch your little brother while he… ran around the premature… births department. It's a good thing I'm a volunteer, or I would have been booted," Sango replied breathlessly. "I've been put in charge of taking care of your mother and brother. Your grandfather had to be taken to intensive care because his condition hasn't improved." Kagome let out a gasp before her friend was able to continue. "Don't worry Kagome. The best doctors in that division are helping him. He'll be fine."
"Alright…" Kagome said unsurely. "Well how is my mom doing?"
"Your mom? Well she umm fine. She's right here if you want to talk to her…"
"Uh ok…"
"I warn you though… a nurse accidentally gave her a little to much pain killers so she's a bit…tipsy."
"Heydyhowdyho?"
"…mom?"
"Kagome?! How the heck are ya darlin'?!" came the reply.
"I'm fine…"
"Well now that just fills me up to the rim with JOY! And tell me how is your friend Inuyashiya doing? She sounds like such a sweet girl!"
"Umm she's uh fine as well…" 'Man, mom is wasted!'
"What have you two groooovy ladies been up to this past year eh?"
"Year…? Umm…well last night I got drunk on sake and broke what looked like a very valuable light."
"Really? Fantidilyastic Kagome! Trying new things! That's my girl!"
"Riiiight… Well listen mom, I just called to see how you all are doing. It seems your doing…relatively well so I'll let you go. I'll come see you some time during the week ok? Bye!"
"Okie dokie hunny bunny! Ride that funky WHEEL OF FORTUNE WOOOHOOO! I'd like to solve the puzzle! Funkey monkey hair on fire! WOOH! I'd like to dedicate this song to all the little people! I love you all! I—" The line went dead…
"Hello? Mom? What the?" Not even a beeping sound was emitting from the phone.
"You know, you should really ask before using the appliances in my apartment."
Kagome looked over at the doorway. Inuyasha stood leaning on the frame spinning the unconnected telephone wire around his hand.
"Oh I'm sorry was this your pink phone?"
He narrowed his eyes in response. She continued her bit of interrogating. "And who says you can just come barging into my room without knocking? How do you know I wasn't changing? Or maybe you did know! You pervert!"
"Hey! Don't change the subject! I have to maintain stability in this household. For all I knew you were making a long distance phone call to Jamaica!"
"Oh! How did you know my mother who was in a car accident was shipped to Jamaica?" she said sarcastically while rolling her eyes.
"Don't get cocky with me girl!"
"Oh don't get your puppy dog boxers in a twist Inuyasha!" Kagome said as she walked by him and out of her room.
"Leave my boxers out of this!" Inuyasha yelled, following her.
"Aww what's wrong? I little self-conscious that I of all people know what underwear you wear?" Kagome asked, looking back at him with a smirk as they walked into the living room.
"YOU LITTLE—"
Just then the front door swung open. "Inuyasha!"

Hey! I'm soooo sorry for not updating on Friday! My computer got a 'Trojan virus' and everything crashed. I finally got everything back up yesterday. I hope this chapter is ok. I'm not sure.
Hmm… who could be at the door?? Lol, so many of you thought she was screaming about how pink her room is… I thought about having that as the main idea but it was too obvious…obviously since almost everyone thought that… Oh yet another cliffie from me… I swear I don't do this intentionally, it just turns out this way! Lol. I will try my absolute hardest to finish the next chapter by Friday, hopefully at the latest Saturday.
