Chapter 7:
Kagome parked the car and got out. Inuyasha also got out of the car and they walked into the vet's office together.
Once they were inside, Kagome walked up to counter where a nurse was typing something into the computer. Kagome looked at her. "Excuse me." Kagome said, getting the nurse's attention.
The nurse looked up from the computer. First she saw Kagome, then saw Inuyasha behind him and gave him a nasty look before looking back at Kagome. "How can I help YOU." The nurse asked, putting emphasison the word 'you'.
"I'm here to pick up my dog." Kagome replied. "His name is Hige and he's a wolf." Kagome added.
(AN- OK. I changed the type of dog that Hige was. Deal with it. I like wolves more than mastifs. OK?)
"OK. We'll bring him right out for you." The nurse said with a smile towards Kagome, then she walked away, walking through a door that was behind the counter.
"Nice nurse." Inuyasha said sarcastically.
"That was really rude though." Kagome said.
"Don't worry about it. I'm used to it." Inuyasha replied.
"What do you mean you're 'used to it'? You shouldn't have to get used to treatment like that." Kagome replied.
"I see it this way. If they don't like me, they don't like me. Not much I can do about it." Inuyasha told Kagome. "I can't threaten them into liking me, or kill them either. So I learn to deal with it."
"I see." Kagome said as she looked into Inuyasha's eyes. Then she became lost in their beauty.
Then, without noticing, Kagome and Inuyasha started to move closer to each other. They were almost touching when...
"BARK BARK BARK!!!" A dog barked and Kagome and Inuyasha moved away from each other.
Kagome turned to look. "Hige!" She exclaimed.
Hige looked just like a wolf should. He was gray with a white belly and blue eyes that scares most. Then the nurse couldn't hold onto Hige any longer before his leash slipped from her grip and Hige ran at Inuyasha jumped on him, knocking him to the ground and growling in his face.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha screamed, afraid that this wolf was going to kill him.
'Hige!" Kagome scolded the wolf, and the wolf let out a whimper before getting off of Inuyasha. Then Kagome walked over to Inuyasha and reached a hand to him and helped him up. "Sorry about that. He's VERY protective."
"I can see." Inuyasha replied.
Then Kagome looked at Hige, who was growling again.
"Hige." Kagome said in a stern tone. "NO growl!" She scolded Hige.
Then Hige bowed his head low as his ear flattened and he let out a whimper as he slowly walked over behind Kagome.
"Ahem." The nurse said, getting everyone's attention. "Your payment?" The nurse asked.
"Oh! We have insurance." Kagome said. "I believe the number is already in the computer and the appointment has already been paid for."
"OK. Thankyou for coming." The nurse said as Kagome, Inuyasha, and Hige all walked out the door. But then Kagome stopped half through the doorway.
"Oh! Umm... Miss?" Kagome asked. Then nurse looked at her. "You may want to not give your costumers dirty looks if you want them to come back. Bye." Kagome said loud enough for anyone in the waiting area to hearbefore leaving.
"Bu-" The nurse stopped when the door shut behind Kagome. Then a few people who were waiting got up with their pets and started to walk towards the door.
With Kagome and Inuyasha.........
"You really didn't have to do that." Inuyasha told Kagome.
"Of coarse I did." Kagome replied. "If they are going to have biased employees, then I'm not going there."
"Whatever." Inuyasha said as he opened the car door to get into the passenger's seat when Hige jumped into the seat.
"Ummm.... OK?" Inuyasha said.
"Hige!" Kagome yelled.
Hige let out a whimper.
"Get in the back seat, now!" Kagome yelled at Hige.
Then Hige jumped into the back seat before Inuyasha got in and sat down.
"Sorry about Hige." Kagome apologized to Inuyasha.
"It's OK. He's just doing his job." Inuyasha told Kagome. "You want a dog to be protective."
"True. But I don't want him to attack my friends like that either." Kagome said.
"It's still OK." Inuyasha replied.
"Thanks for being understanding." Kagome said.
"No problem." Inuyasha replied.
Then Kagome started the car and Mandy Moore started playing on the radio with 'AllI want for Christmas is You'. And Kagome started to drive back to her house.
