Wow, this must be the quickest update I've ever made but I love this story so much that I don't care, he he, but this isn't in inu's point of view anymore. Some chapters might be like that but I only intended the opening to be like that. Here you go!
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
The ride back to Kouga's home was tense. When Kagome had returned to the table he was sitting there all by himself, she could feel the anger radiating of him but she didn't know why he was so mad…he didn't see her and Inuyasha did he?
When they arrived at his house Kouga grabbed Kagome quite firmly by the arm and directed her to his house. Somewhat nervous and scared Kagome followed. When Kouga unlocked the door and he dragged Kagome inside and tossed her on the couch. Kagome, shocked, stayed silent.
"Did you enjoy it?" Kouga's voice broke through the darkness, like a growl, low and hoarse.
"Enjoy what, Kouga? You're not making any sense" Kagome responded afraid. What was wrong with him?
Kouga infuriated walked up to her and slapped her across the face, his nails biting into her skin leaving four scratch marks. Kagome's mouth was open in a silent scream of pain as she brought her hand to he cheek.
"Did you enjoy it? Huh! Don't you care about me? How could you do…do that! With that mutt! He's nothing but trash Kagome!" Kouga yelled.
Kagome looked up at Kouga afraid. "I'm sorry, nothing happened, and nothing will happen, please believe me"
Kouga looked torn. "How do I know it won't happen again, I have to do something to get it through that head of yours that you're my woman, and that's the way it is!"
Kagome stood up infuriated. "How dare you say that I'm your woman like I'm something to be owned! You're being absolutely crazy Kouga. I'm leaving" She grabbed her jacket and bag and was about to open the door when Kouga's hand roughly grabbed her arm and he used his other arm to hold closed the door.
"Where do you think you're going?" Kouga said.
Kagome in a shaky voice said "Home.."
Kouga gave only a growl in response before dragging her to his bedroom. Terrified Kagome fought against his arm but it was futile. Kouga threw her on the bed and before she even had a chance to run he was on top of her kissing her lips.
Kagome pound his chest trying to get away but she couldn't. Silent tears fell down her cheeks. Finally Kouga stopped and looked down at her.
"What's the matter? Don't you care about me? You're such a whore Kagome!" Kouga shouted and drew back his fist, hitting Kagome right across that face.
Kagome let out a whimper and using what strength she had left pushed Kouga away and bolted for the door. Before she was anywhere close Kouga grabbed her by her raven locks and threw her back and watch as she fell to the ground. He delivered a kick to her stomach, and Kagome was sure she heard a crack.
"Where do you think you're going ka-go-me?" Kouga said tilting his head to the side. Kagome was absolutely terrified. What was wrong with him? He was acting insane.
Through out that night, Kagome experienced nothing but pain, but the physical pain didn't hurt as much as the emotional pain. Why…why had she lost another man she loved?
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Kagome awoke early morning to a cool cloth on her head. Weakly she opened her eyes to see her brother dabbing sweat away from her forehead. "What happened?" she said in a cracked voice.
Souta jumped and looked at her, his eyes slightly puffy from crying. "You didn't come home last night…so I went to Kouga's to get you…and he was…he…so I hit him…in the back of the head…I grabbed you and ran…"
Kagome whimpered as she moved, her body in pain. Souta jumped up "Don't move! You're in no condition too. Now I want you to stay here and relax, I'm going to go call Sango and Miroku, the hospital was a little hectic last night, and the last time I called them was to ask where you were. So hang in tight"
Kagome watched as Souta left, feeling her heart shatter as she remembered what happened. Why? He was such a great guy, but it was cruel of her to kiss Inuyasha, but she had explained to him what they once had! And how she still felt! And he understood…he understood didn't he? I thought he did but I guess I was truly wrong…
Kagome's body shook in pain as she let out a sob. Soon the painkillers that were slowly pumping into her body kicked in and she fell asleep into a dreamless world.
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
Sango eyes stared intensely at her cell phone. Souta called last night wondering where Kagome was and she had heard nothing since.
"Sango, love, staring at it won't make it ring" Miroku stated from his place at the kitchen table where he was current playing cards with Inuyasha.
"I know but-" Sango was interrupted when her cell phone rang. Jumping up Sango pressed talk. "Hello! Souta thank god! I was about to die of worry! What's going on?"
Miroku and Inuyasha watched as Sango paled and nodded her head a few times before giving a quite goodbye. Not giving an explanation Sango grabbed a small backpack from her closet and went to the guest room and began to pack Kagome's clothes and personal items she always left there.
"Sango? What the hell is going on?" Inuyasha asked.
Sango as though shocked out of some reverie turned to Inuyasha. "Souta called…from the hospital…"
"What! Sango! Why?" Inuyasha yelled.
"Kouga…Kouga he…hit her…and" Sango was unable to finish her sentence as she broke down. Miroku ran to her side and helped and Inuyasha turned and grabbed his car keys.
"Come one we're taking my car"
The drive to the hospital seemed to take an eternity but once inside they saw Souta standing and waiting for them. Souta nodded towards the elevator and waiting until they were all inside before pressing the button for the third floor.
"Souta, exactly what happened?"
"I'm not even too sure myself, I was worried about Kagome and called Sango, and she said Kagome was with Kouga. So I called Kouga's house and their cell phones and no one answered. So I went over there…and Kouga was standing over Kagome who was unconscious. I punched him in the back of the head and called the police"
"And what's going on! What's going to happen?" Sango chocked out.
"Seems as though Kouga has had assault charges before but there was no proof, Kouga was to take anger management but somehow got out of it. We never knew and Kagome was faced with the consequences. I don't know why he up and beat her, but all I care about is that that bastard is in jail and hopefully he'll stay there."
By the time they finished talking they had arrived at Kagome's room. Kagome was giving a private room and currently the door was closed. Opening the door Souta walked in followed by the trio.
Inuyasha tensed up but walked right up to her bedside and pulled up a chair, and grasped her hand. Sango and Miroku pulled chairs up shortly after and Souta stood at the end of the bed.
Kagome had a black eye and a nasty looking cut on her fore head; she also had four claw marks on her cheek. Her neck was lightly bruised and her arms lightly bruised and cut as well, they couldn't see any other damage but they turned to Souta.
"Kagome mostly has bruises and cuts but a few of her ribs are broken and one almost pierced her lung. She's in a lot of pain but thankfully they have her on morphine, every time her pulse and heart rate go higher than a certain number she gets a does of morphine."
Inuyasha nodded and they all sat silently waiting for Kagome to wake up.
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
When Kagome began to wake up, she noticed a lot of different things. On the left side of the bed some one was sitting causing the bed to lean slightly that way, holding her hand. She could hear two voices on either side of her.
Her eyes seemed to struggle as she opened them. When she finally got them open the first thing she was molten eyes staring at her.
Inuyasha seeing her awake brought his hand to the side of her face. "Hey, how you feeling?"
Kagome looked into his eyes and saw the love, and caring in them and gave a watery smile. "I'm hanging in there"
Inuyasha slight smiled as he planted a kiss on her fore head. "What happened?"
"He…he saw us in the garden…and he was upset…I explained to him about us and what happened and he understood…he understood…but he was so angry…and I couldn't get away…and…and…" Kagome was silenced when Inuyasha put his hands on her cheeks.
"It's okay, every things going to be okay." Inuyasha said gently wrapping his arms around her. Kagome leaned into his chest and closed her eyes feeling the urge to sleep.
When she had fallen asleep Inuyasha gently laid her down and turned to the policemen who were standing of to the side. "Is that what you needed?"
The one man nodded before turning away shortly followed by the other cop. Inuyasha turned his attention back to the others who were staring at him.
"What happened in the garden, Inuyasha?" Sango asked.
"Kagome and I kissed…and we said that we missed each other, but she didn't want to leave Kouga, she said that we would have our chance but now wasn't the time…"
Souta nodded and patted Inuyasha on the shoulder. "I'm sure things have changed now, she's always loved you man, and she has never given up. But I have to leave for a soccer practice I can't miss. Please watch her, stay here for her"
Inuyasha nodded and took Souta's chair and Kagome's hand. After Souta said his good byes he left, Sango and Miroku sat talking.
"I hope everything turns out ok for them…"
"Sango, my love, you have nothing to fear. Now let us go home and get our rest, it would upset Kagome even more to see us in such poor state"
Sango and Miroku left leaving Inuyasha to stay by Kagome. A few hours later Kagome was coming too.
"Hey" Inuyasha said in a soft soothing voice.
Kagome looked at Inuyasha and smiled. "I guess now is our chance huh?"
Inuyasha let out a little laugh and planted a soft kiss on his angel's lips. "Feeling any better?"
Kagome nodded. "These pain killers make me forgot about my ribs…Inuyasha…what's going to happen with Kouga?"
"Kouga has been charged before with assault and battery of women but they had no real proof, so he was let go with some advice, take anger management. But Kouga ignored them. Now Kouga is being charged with proof and will most likely be charged with the other assault charges against him."
Kagome nodded and smiled. "I'm glad"
Inuyasha rubbed his thumb over her knuckles. "As am I, I get you all to myself now"
Kagome laughed and Inuyasha let out a smirk. Sighing Kagome said, "I love you…"
Inuyasha kissed her gently "I love you too" he whispered softly against her lips.
Smiling softly Kagome drifted of into sleep, knowing Inuyasha would be by her side, protecting her.
LLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL
