Chapter 4: Lose you to love me
"You're being stubborn" Kyora huffed
Sesshomaru was sitting on the smaller demon's bed, since their date he'd spent the last few days wrapped in the beta's sheets
"I'm working today and you'll have the place to yourself, you have loads of time" the cherry haired beta said as he walked towards the closet and grabbed a large case hiding behind the clothes. He placed the case next to Sesshomaru, and looked up at the alpha demon before hesitantly opening the hard shell to reveal a red acoustic guitar.
Sesshomaru lifted his clawed hand to touch it slightly, and looked up at his lover confused
"What is this?" he questioned
"I bought it a few months ago, I used some of my savings" Kyora said as his face became heated, kneeling in-front of Sesshomaru he continued "you've got a gift sweetness, don't waste it" Kyora placed a soft kiss of his head and proceed to grab his bag and rushed out the door before the alpha demon could protest.
Sesshomaru flipped through the channels mindlessly ever so often he'd glance over at the guitar, the instrument was burning a hole into the bed figuratively. He had the day off today and wanted nothing more than to relax but Kyora and his meddling had other plans. He got off the bed and darted for the kitchen, he opened the fridge and sighed! He wasn't really hungry so he slammed the door harshly and stood silently cocking his head to peer into the bedroom as he glared at the guitar and turned his back.
He walked over to the apartment door deciding to go for a walk and get some fresh air until he paused with his hand on the door knob. Truth is he hadn't played much since, well in a long time and he pawned his own guitar years ago; sighing he turned back around towards the bedroom.
He sat beside the guitar, running his hands over the strings lightly as he pulled it out of the case and brushed the strings. A strumming sound echoed through the apartment, he took a breath in and sat quietly letting his thoughts envelop him in a cocoon of emotion. Lids slid shut over beaming citrine eyes as he rolled the stiff muscles that ached under his skin. He picked up the guitar and walked over to the balcony as he slid the door open. The crisp morning October air blew gently across his face as the morning sunshine peeked lightly through the clouds, he sat on the chair and allowed himself to be surrounded by the cacophony of sound emanating from the city below him. He looked into the clouds watching them darken, much like inside himself he witnessed a storm begin to rise on the horizon.
He sat his phone on the ledge, turning on the voice note app as he hummed lightly and he leaned into the chair.
As a few words left his lips he allowed the suppressed anguish to bubble in his stomach.
"You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest"
He sung softly in a higher key, allowing his voice to fill the morning air
"And you let it burn
Sang off-key in my chorus
'Cause it wasn't yours
He strummed a familiar chord, concentrating on the emotional waves crashing into him. Threatening to break him!
"I saw the signs and I ignored it
Rose-colored glasses all distorted
Set fire to my purpose
And I let it burn
You got off on the hurtin'
When it wasn't yours, yeah"
Tears began to prickle his eyes as he paused, breathing in deeply he continued on
"We'd always go into it blindly
I needed to lose you to find me
This dancing was killing me softly
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me"
He played gently, allowing the music to breathe life into the pain he had avoided all these years.
The sweet timbre of his voice filled the air as thunder rumbled beyond the clouds darkening the sky. Memories flashed behind his eyes of a familiar smile and sweet laughter that left a hole inside his heart, he struggled to continue on fighting through the sadness that consumed him. He allowed the music to embrace him as it provided a soothing balm for his aching soul.
Sesshomaru felt something inside him click into place; a missing piece that left with the snowy haired beta many years ago.
"You promised the world and I fell for it
I put you first and you adored it
Set fires to my forest
And you let it burn
Sang off-key in my chorus
To love, love, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, yeah
I needed to hate you to love me, yeah
I needed to lose you to love me
And now the chapter is closed and done
To love, love, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, yeah
And now it's goodbye, it's goodbye for us"
He gasped loudly as a sob wracked through his body, dropping the guitar beside him. The thud was muted by the rumbling of the storm as lightning flashed behind the clouds and rain started to pour onto the concrete. He looked up, allowing the rain to hit his face as tears crawled down his cheeks he left out a blood curdling scream his body shook violently as he stared into the sky.
He allowed himself to become drenched in the storm, he brought his legs up into his chest. He sobbed continuously thinking of the man he loved deeply, the man that left with a piece of his soul! He felt a kinship with the storm; he was a mess! He masked it well but inside he could feel himself bleeding, the wound that Inuyasha left hadn't healed even after all this time. He finally had to admit that his anger wasn't because he hated Inuyasha but because he loved him even after everything.
He fell silent pausing briefly, he began to move! Pulling himself from the ground he stood tall turning to enter the apartment after grabbing his phone and guitar. He walked through the apartment clothing slick to his body as his bangs stuck to his forehead, he walked over to the linen closet pulling a towel into his hands. He entered the bathroom as he stared into the mirror, he looked at himself seeing his silky hair in disarray pulled up into a messy bun. He pulled his locs free allowing the wet tendrils to frame his face, he began to pat away the wet mess. Citrein eyes were lined red showing the after effect of his realization and breakdown. He peeled the wet clothes off his body and steadied himself on the wall, he took a breath inward and mumbled.
"And now the chapter is closed and done
To love, love, yeah
To love, love, yeah
To love, yeah
And now it's goodbye, it's goodbye for us"
Sesshomaru spent hours on the floor of the living room, his clawed hand clenching the guitar as if it was his final life line. The one thing that was holding him together, the lighthouse on his harbour. The plucking of the strings echoed through the apartment as he continued to sing through the pain emanating from his chest; the music breathing life into his cold shell. He had finally descended from the emotional rollercoaster he felt he had been on for the past three years; he wasn't okay but he would be eventually, hopefully.
He closed his eyes and sang softly once more.
"And you were strong and I was not My illusion, my mistake I was careless, I forgot, I did"
He paused as he heard the door open, he looked over to the trio entering the small Harlem apartment.
"Oi you got him to start writing again" Naraku said shocked as his mouth hung agape at the scene in front of him. Sesshomaru was in the middle of the living room surrounded by torn pieces of paper, shirtless with bloodshot eyes holding a guitar steadily.
Sesshomaru sighed as he put the guitar down as he ran his hand over his face, Kyora pushed through twin bodies to get to the alpha on the floor. He dropped to his knees as he hurried over to the large alpha.
"Sweetness" Kyora said softly as dread creeped into his body, he worried that he pushed the alpha demon to far.
"Sesshomaru" Kyora said concerned
"I'm fine" he mumbled as Kyora reach up to touch him, he flinched slightly moving away from the beta
The twins walked over to their friend, Naraku spoke first
"So does this mean you're going to start acting like your freaking Beyonce" Naraku said jokingly
He snorted looking up at his friend, light laughter erupted from his body. He stood up and excused himself to the bathroom.
The twins looked over to their friend, watching him disappear into the bathroom as concern clouded their eyes. Naraku looked over to the distraught cherry haired beta, as Kyora walked in the bedroom.
Naraku cocked his head to the balcony and beckoned his sister, and the pair walked onto the balcony.
"What was that about?" Kagura said as she looked up into the distance, watching the sky aimlessly
"What it's always about!" Naraku said numbly
Kagura raised an eyebrow and turned to face her brother as he leaned against the railing, his white tank top tight against his chest. His black hair was always a mess that seemed to work for only him, he pulled a cigarette between his lips, lighting it silently and began smoking as looked into the distance.
Kagura admired her brother!
He was strong, talented and brave; beneath the mass of muscles and towering height there was a soft gentle giant inside! He had to grow up quickly after their father had died in the war years ago, they're mother had completely shut down and leaned heavily on Naraku to be the man of the house.
Everything arrived at a halt when he came out to their mother during high school,she berated the alpha and shunned him, kicking him out one cold winter night during their highschool years.
"What's wrong" Kagura questioned
He looked into the apartment, peering behind him he turned to look over to his sister.
Fire in his eyes he said forcefully "Did you know?"
"Know what?"
"Don't fucking play stupid Kagura" he seethed
"Don't you dare speak to me like that" she said as she took a step closer to her brother
Naraku rose to fully face his sister, closing the gap between them he bent down and harshly whispered
"I know that you've been fucking Inuyasha's dad and I haven't said anything because frankly they deserve to have their lives blown to shit"
Kagura began to interrupt "We aren't just fuc" she was cut off as her brother wave his hand in her face
"But I draw the line at you blatantly lying to MY face! So I will ask you one more time DID. YOU .KNOW''
Kagura looked to the side and chewed her lip, she felt small under her brothers gaze
"No I didn't know" she answered quietly as she continued
"I saw Inutashio yesterday and he told me that Inuyasha was home"
Naraku searched his sisters face for any signs of deceit, satisfied he took a step back and returned to his previous position
Kagura sighed, scrunching her face slightly and said "Wait, how do you know that he's back?"
"I saw him" he said bluntly bring the cigarette between his lips once more
"WHAT!" she screeched putting her hands on her hips
"Keep your voice down" he said looking through the glass at his friend who sat on the couch, he watched the silver haired alpha hunched over the guitar playing aimlessly.
"Please tell me you kicked his ass"
"I wouldn't ever put my hands on a beta like that Kagura! and it's not my place to confront Inuyasha," he said rolling his eyes
"Oh shove your self righteous bullshit, he deserves it! I'm telling Sesshomaru" Kagura spat before turning towards the door
Naraku turned to Kagura, gripping her arm roughly
"First of all, I don't care what you think! It's not your place to confront Inuyasha either" he said forcefully as he continued to grip her tightly
"Second of all, you will not mention anything to Sesshomaru! Look at him" he jerked his head towards the alpha sitting on the floor inside the quaint apartment.
"He's barely hanging on by a thread and seeing Inuyasha or even knowing he's back in town would fuck with his head" he said finally
"For fucksake keep your opinions to yourself and keep your little affair quiet, don't you dare let it get back to Sessh" he said roughly letting Kagura go
Kagura glared at her brother with anger brimming beneath her ruby eyes, she turned to leave the irate spider demon.
She stopped and turned to face her brother folding her arms she spoke
"How did you even know about Inutashio and I? Are you spying on us? perv!" she said smirking slightly
Naraku laughed and said "Please sis! You're predictable, you've been working under him at the New York Supreme Court for the past few months! I gave it two months before you let him crawl between your legs and you only lasted a month!" he spat smiling evilly as he watched her smirk fall.
"A few well placed compliments and you fall right into bed" he rolled his eyes as he pushed himself passed his sister
Sesshomaru looked between his twin friends as he raised his eyebrow in put the new guitar down softly as he unwound the tightness in his body, he picked himself off the floor and walked over to the spider demon who sat comfortably at the dining table drinking a beer; He peered over his shoulder at Kagura who sat awkwardly on the couch, silently playing with her hair. He leaned over to face Naraku and said
"Everything good?"
Naraku looked up at his old friend and showed a smile that didn't reach his eyes
"Of course bro!" the spider demon rose from his seat and placed a clawed calloused hand on his shoulder
"How about we grab some Pizza, there's this spot uptown! We can bring it back and have a night in" Naraku suggested
He looked at the other alpha demon suspiciously and nodded, he announced "We are going to grab some food! We'll be back"
Kyora looked up at the silver haired alpha questioningly as the pair grabbed their coats and rushed out the door. Once they were alone, Kyora looked over to Kagura
"Kagura is something going on?" Kyora questioned softly as he walked over to the raven haired beauty
Kagura looked into the red haired beta's eyes and sighed.
She wanted nothing more than to reach out to him and let everything out. Truth was she was confused about her relationship with the older alpha and although she knew Naraku wouldn't approve of their relationship, she didn't think he would react so harshly. Her other half was blunt and bold but rarely ever curel, that was her calling card but the comments he made previously ran through her mind on repeat and cut her deeply. She felt alone, she knew she couldn't talk to Sesshomaru about what had transpired between her and Inutashio because of his history with Inuyasha.
She couldn't talk to Kyora because he didn't know what happened between Inuyasha and Sesshomaru, and revealing that to the cherry haired beta wouldn't only hurt him but Sesshomaru as well.
She had always had issues with relationships, preferring to keep things casual. Until she met the charismatic judge, she knew he was married but she couldn't help how he made her feel. She had never felt a magnetic pull to anyone before, he felt like safety- like home.
Instead she sighed swallowing the words that bubbled in her throat she spoke softly
"Nothing, just dumb family shit" she lied as she reached for the TV remote willing her insecurities at bay.
The pair took the train uptown to their destination, Patsy's Pizzeria was incredible; they had the softest dough and biggest selection in all of New York. Sesshomaru sat quietly the entire ride over, lost in the labyrinth of his mind. His emotions felt raw, but something felt serene inside of him after reuniting with his music. He wanted nothing more than to lock himself in a room and continue to play the chords that spoke to his pain. He smiled slightly as he peered over at the man busking inside the passing station, he silently vowed to himself that he'd get to this point sooner than later; a place he longed for.
He has spent so much time hiding himself from the world, hiding his art from the world! He had to make up for lost time.
He watched Naraku, the spider demon who had clearly lied before and he silently wondered what was causing the normally bright alpha demon to become so sullen. The train jerked him from his thoughts, they stood quickly and began their short walk over to the Pizzeria.
"I'm buying what do you want?" he said in front of the entrance
"Ah just get one Hawaiian and one pepperoni" Naraku said gingerly
Sesshomaru looked over to Naraku and said "Whatever you said to her, just apologize"
Naraku's eyes widened as he peered over to the argent haired alpha "I don't?-" Naraku exclaimed before he cut him off swiftly
"You two are literally the same person, you love her more than anyone! Don't let your pride come between you two" he said as he turned around to face the restaurant leaving the spider demon with his thoughts, unknowingly frustrating the raven haired alpha that was trying to protect him.
"Come on 'Yasha" Koga whined
"I just want to go home" Inuyasha huffed and continued "It's been a long ass day"
"It's just one drink" Koga pushed
"Davis, my brain is fried" he said exhausted
"Mine too, hence the drink" Koga explained
"Your dad was up my ass today and not in the way I'd like" he joked
"Oh ew dude! That's my dad, fuck!"
Inuyasha laughed as they walked towards the train station
"Well daddy dearest needs to get laid cause what the fuck?"
Shuddering at the thought of his parents having sex
"Yeah I know! Dad really pushed us today" Koga said
"You mean Mr. Davis" he said rolling his eyes as he continued "Here I'm not your dad, I'm your boss" he tried to mimic the older wolf demon
Koga laughed lightly
"So ?!" he questioned suggestively wiggling his eyebrows
Koga looked at his friend and said "So what?!"
"Oh come on Davis, are you going to make me spell it out for you"
Koga stopped and peered at his friend questioningly
Inuyasha sighed and said " So what did Naraku say when you called him?" he questioned as he linked arms with his bashful friend
"I didn't" Koga whispered and admitted "I don't think I will either"
Inuyasha scrunched his face at his friend "Why not?"
"Because! Alright just drop it" Koga huffed
"Koga" Inuyasha said concerned
"You pined after this guy in Highschool, I remember how you used to look at him everyday! You were totally smitten with the guy. Now three years later, he gives you his number and you're going to pass?"
Koga chewed his bottom lip, sighing heavily and looked away from his friend
"Look, school was always a cake walk! I'm an academic, I never went to parties and I wasn't popular! I was an overweight nerd, and my only friend was you! I never even talked to a guy, let alone someone like Naraku Kage. I wouldn't even know where to start 'Yash" Koga laughed dryly
"Wait a second" he said stopping and grabbing his friend softly, he continued "Have you never been on a date?"
Koga shook his head
"Have you ever you know?" he implied
Koga looked down and whispered "No" he admitted
Inuyasha looked at his friend softly pulling him into an embrace
"We're both a mess huh? You can't get a guy to fuck ya and I can't keep a guy" he joked
Koga laughed pushing Inuyasha from him, rolling his eyes before dropping his phone accidently
"Fuck you, halfbreed" Koga laughed as he bent down to grab his phone
Inuyasha laughed and peered over to the opposite side of the street, not focusing on anything in particular as he watched the people exiting the train station begin to litter the small side street. He inhaled briefly as something began to tickle his nose. He leaned his head upward and began scenting the air, something familiar tainted it.
He could hear Koga drone on about something that he wasn't paying attention to, he continued to search for the owner of that familiar scent, he stepped closer to the edge of the sidewalk peering over the crowd that blocked his line of sight. He stood on his tip toes and lightly pushed an offending silhouette from his view just in time to witness a familiar figure emerge from the restaurant across the street.
Long legs were hidden in tattered blue jeans, a white shirt hung perfectly on an adonis built body, muscles moved perfectly beneath the shirt. Argent hair was tied into a messy bun with a content smile pulling slightly at petal pink lips and honey golden eyes shone bright in the night. Inuyasha's breath hitched as he stared longingly at the demon across the street; the alpha's scent filled the air. Firewood, and pine with hints of honeysuckle tickled his nose as he watched the alpha move towards the spider demon. He stood tall against the city backdrop; like a lighthouse shining in the darkness.
A lump formed in his throat as he watched the one he longed for, barely six feet from him.
"Yasha" Koga spoke as he shook his friend lightly
"We should go" as Koga tried to pull his friend from his trance
Inuyasha stood there as if time slowed briefly, watching the man that claimed his heart speak carelessly to the alpha opposite to him.
"Porcelain, Il mio amorer" he whispered as he stood frozen in place eyes widened
"Alright we've got the Pizza, should we grab drinks" Sesshomaru said looking over to Naraku
"Fuck yes, you know those two are going to make us watch-" Naraku said
"RuPaul Drag Race" they spoke in unison rolling their eyes
Sesshomaru laughed lightly, handing their dinner over to the spider demon as he shuffled his wallet into his pocket. He watched the crowd begin to dissipate as people headed in different directions away from the street, the noise of the city dulled as the street emptied.
"It's like yes I'm gay but that doesn't mean I like Drag" Naraku ranted
Sesshomaru laughed at his friend as cool air blew past his face, exhaling lightly he looked down to the sidewalk briefly before he heard a soft whisper
"Porcelain, Il mio amore"
Sesshomaru's head shot up as his ears twitched slightly, he began peering over the dissipating crowd as Naraku tried to match his eye line.
"Yo what are you looking at" the spider demon spoke
He walked towards the edge of the sidewalk, he looked confusingly into the crowd.
"Maybe I'm going crazy" he thought to himself
He could've sworn he heard, he turned to the alpha demon before peering one final time across the street; as one final person moved from his view his eyes landed on perfectly wild snow white hair that clashed wonderfully against tan skin. He moved to face the street onward as his jaw slacked lightly, he thought maybe he was seeing a mirage! Citrine eyes found honey hazel eyes; his heart hammered in his chest. He looked at the perfect beta who was clad in a deep blue suit that framed his curves lovingly, a tie sat loosely around his neck and a few buttons provided a clear view of the smaller demon's neck. A space where Sesshomaru remembered vividly; the place he leaned his head during rough days, where he peppered kisses and drank in his scent.
"Inuyasha" his voice hitched slightly watching the beta stand across the street
They stood staring at each other completely locked in a trance, as the past came rushing back to the star crossed lovers.
Naraku stood next to him watching the pair, he shook him slightly
"Sessh?" the spider demon questioned
Sesshomaru's breath hitched in his throat as he watched the beta fidget under his glance, he was afraid to blink in case it was some strange fever dream. Millions of memories flooded his mind before reality came crashing into him.
Sesshomaru stood there staring into Inuyasha eyes as he felt a familiar pain begin to bloom in his chest, he tightened his fist as a growl rippled through his throat. Crimson began to bleed into gold as his beast began to take hold. He took a step into the street towards Inuyasha!
Inuyasha watched his ex boyfriend walk towards him,peering into crimson eyes that clashed against perfect gold as he felt the imposing aura of the angry alpha spike, the beta felt a whine crawl up his throat as fear took his body.
"Oh shit! Time to GO" Koga spoke roughly grabbing Inuyasha
Inuyasha dazed. He felt himself being pulled into the train station as he watched the alpha inch closer to them.
He was pulled up the stairs as Koga tried to put distance between them and the angry alpha, they hurried onto the platform, barely making it unto the train as they pushed themselves deeper into the packed tight doors closed just as the silver haired alpha reached the platform, the spider demon struggling behind the fuming alpha. They were finally face to face separated by cheap plexiglass, Sesshomaru stood close to the glass as his nose lightly touched it, crimson eyes filled with pain and anger peered down into hazel eyes brimming with sadness and longing. Inuyasha put his hand against the glass briefly as he watched a snarl rip past Sesshomaru's teeth. The train rolled into a start slowly as he kept looking at Sesshomaru, afraid to take his eyes off the alpha. He continued to look out the window stuck in the same position long after the alpha was out of his view
Inuyasha felt nauseous as conflicting emotions bubbled inside of him
"I'll take that drink now" he said
Koga looked over to his friend and nodded in silence.
Inuyasha sat next to his friend with a liquor bottle in hand as they both stared out into the pier, the midnight sky reflected off the calm water, chilling air wrapped around the smaller demons while the city once again came alive.
"I-" Koga began to speak but closed his mouth unsure what to say, they continued to sit in silence as Inuyasha took a big swig of liquor, coughing as the alcohol burned his throat slightly.
"Yasha what exactly happened between you two" Koga questioned and continued "I don't understand, one minute you are in love, planning your lives together after graduation and then-"
"I'm on the next flight to London" he finished numbly
"Yeah"
Inuyasha didn't answer Koga, he just continued to look off in the distance.
He rose from his spot on the grassy knoll and dusted his pants softly, he pulled the bottle to his lips taking a large gulp. He threw it harshly to the ground stunning Koga as glass shattered.
"We're out of liquor" he said softly as he walked towards the street looking for a liquor store, unsure of the neighbourhood he wandered aimlessly.
"Inuyasha where are we going?" Koga spoke straggling behind him
Inuyasha ignored his friend as he continued walking through the street
"INUYASHA!" Koga shouted stunning his friend enough for him to catch up
Inuyasha stopped and stood firmly in the middle of the street, he whipped his head in Kogas direction as he narrowed his eyes "Koga" he said mockly
"Yash your drunk, we should go home and sleep it off" Koga spoke softly
Rolling his eyes slightly, he pushed past Koga
"Yash it's fine alright, everything will work out" Koga spoke earnestly
He turned around and glared into shocked blue orbs
"Alright?! You have no fucking idea what happened! WHAT I DID!" he roared as his body shook with anger
"I did this! I hurt the only man I have ever loved" he said clenching his teeth as hot tears slipped down his cheek.
He looked up at Koga and spat
"YOU DON'T KNOW SHIT DAVIS! YOU HAVEN'T EVEN DATED ANYONE! FOR FUCKS SAKE YOU DON'T EVEN LEAVE YOUR FUCKING ROOM, YOU COWARD"
Koga inhaled sharply "Fuck you Takakashi! How can I know when you won't fucking tell me anything"
He watched the wolf demon approach him cautiously, trying to reach him while he cried softly; he brushed his hand through his mane.
"Come on it will be okay"
"I swear to fucking god, if you say that shit one more time! I'm going to punch you in the throat" he said roughly
Koga sighed, peering over to him looking at his disheveled friend and said "You've acted like everything was fine Yash! Just talk to me please"
Tears poured from his honey coloured eyes as his body shook, he cradled his head in his hands! He made a mess of his life, he tried to do right by Sesshomaru! He honestly thought cutting ties with the beautiful alpha was for the best, he was trying to protect him. He was a dumpster fire of a person and he didn't want Sesshomaru to end up burned! He tried to act like he never met the alabaster beauty, he went to Cambridge and tried to move on with his life but everytime he closed his eyes he could see him; in his dreams he was haunted. Whoever he dated never felt like Sesshomaru, they never held him the way he did, no one measured up to Sesshomaru.
"I fucked up" he whispered
Koga sighed and approached his friend
"I thought I was doing the right thing" he muttered to himself hardly paying attention to his friend moving closer to him
"He hates me" he stuttered
Koga reached out to pull his friend into his arms but Inuyasha pushed him harshly
"No! Stay away from me, I-I hurt everyone I love" he whispered as he ran off into the night
Koga winced as his bottom collided with the hard concrete, looking at the snow haired beta he shouted after his friend
"INUYASHA WAIT!?"
After the shock wore off he rose from the ground, brushing his pants he walked into the direction his friend took off in.
He searched for the familiar white haired beta as he realized that something serious must have happened between the two if the past was still haunting his friend so rigorously. He admitted that he didn't question his childhood friend when Inuyasha confessed that the couple had broken up and he decided to go away to school in England. He supported him fully, figuring that highschool couples usually break up and that Inuyasha would move on from the mysterious alpha.
He felt guilty for not trying to pry the truth from his dear friend before he left for school all those years ago, and silently vowed that once he found Inuyasha he would sit him down and have an actual heart to heart!
After a few hours of wandering aimlessly throughout the neighbourhood, he pulled his phone out his pocket and searched for his newest contact. He hesitated wondering if he should alert Inutashio!
He might be annoyed with Inuyasha slightly but the last thing Inuyasha needed was for his father to be looking over his shoulder after this traumatic event, instead he decided in favour of a lesser evil and dialed the number.
"Hello?" the voice picked up on the first ring
"Uhm hi, you probably don't remember me It's Koga from the other night" he spoke softly
"Yeah I remember you Koga, I saw you tonight remember " the voice purred
"Ah ha ha yeah uhm yes I was there tonight, I'm actually calling about that" he explained
"Oh yeah, what about tonight baby?"
After explaining the situation to the spider demon, and much pleading on his part he managed to get the spider demon to agree to meet him at the pier. It was a quarter after 11pm, the brisk October wind blew harshly in the night warning that fall was on the horizon. He stood waiting as he chewed his lip and looked nervously at every sound in the night!
"Koga" a voiced bellowed across the street
Koga whipped around and blushed at the alpha walking in his direction, he was wearing loose black sweatpants that left little to the imagination, which were paired with a black tight t-shirt and a grey hoodie. Ebony locks were pulled into a messy bun that left tendrils framing the spider alpha's face, crimson eyes shown against the darkness.
"Hey uhm thank you for coming" he said softly
"Yeah well I'm still not sure why you called me" Naraku said roughly
Tears began to prickle sapphire eyes, and his nose sniffled he said softly "I didn't have anyone else to uhm-"
Naraku's head turned to look over at the small beta demon in front of him, he sighed as his shoulders slumped. He took a step towards the smaller form, his hand slowly reached out and cupped the wolf demon's chin forcing him to reach Naraku's eyes.
Naraku's gaze softened as he felt a slight tug at his heart, "Hey none of that okay," he said gingerly as he wiped a tear that lightly trailed down coffee coloured skin.
"We'll find him" he assured the small beta
Naraku felt hypnotized as he was captured by a sea of blue that brightly shined in Koga's eyes
"I'm sorry, I'm not Inuyasha biggest fan at the moment but I'm here to help you ok" he said trying to reassure the beta
"Mhm" Koga mumbled
Naraku nearly fainted at the sight of that pink tongue darting out its cavern to lick plush lips.
"He went off in this direction, I tried to called him but he's not answering" the beta's soft tone rang in his ears
"Okay let's start there"
The pair took off in Inuyasha's previous direction, they wandered the streets searching bars and restaurants that were still open for the white haired beta. Hoping to get a glimpse of the smaller demon. Naraku's frustration grew as he watched the concern in Koga's eyes, he was irritated that the first time he was spending with the attractive demon it was preoccupied with Inuyasha.
He swore to kick his ass the second he saw him!
They continued on until Koga's legs started to burn
"I don't know where he could've went" the blue eyes beauty said looking around frantically
Naraku admitted to himself that he admired Koga's tenacity and loyalty to his friend, although he silently wished he would find better friends!
"Give me your phone" he said as an thought popped into his mind
Koga handed him his phone quickly
Naraku dialed Inuyasha as the pair continued to walk through the streets, hoping to hear a shrill sound. Stalking side streets, he listened carefully for a -
RING RING
Koga's ears picked up as he took off into the back alley behind a bar, his legs pushing towards the paused at the scene before him, his friend was obviously drunk, and passed out with a large towering demon pressing his body against the wall. The demon was roughly grabbing his friend, as his face scrunched in disgust at the demon who roughly groped the vulnerable beta. Naraku came up behind Koga, he rushed towards the opposing alpha demon crashing his body into the offending man.
"What the fuck" he seethed harshly as he roughly grabbed the other demon
"Oh come on man we're just playing around, when I'm done you can have a turn" the other demon said roughly licking his lips.
Naraku cocked his fist and punched the other in the face harshly, knocking the alpha demon out cold.
Koga rushed over to his friend as he watched Inuyasha sink to the floor, he smelt of liquor. Naraku walked back to the pair, his crimson eyes looking at the younger demon softly. He picked Inuyasha up in his arms as Koga followed him.
"I left my car at the parkade up town" Koga said gingerly
"We will take an uber to his place, I took the train" he said softly
"No we can't do that" Koga said
"Why not?"
"Because Izayoi's been a raging bitch lately and Inutashio will freak out"
"Okay ah well then let's take him to your place" he contested
"We can't do that either" Koga shook his head
"Okay why not" he said impatiently
"Inuyasha and I are working at my father's law firm together and I don't know what he'd do if he found out about this" Koga said pointing at Inuyasha softly
"Okay fine, we will go back to my place" he said finally
Koga blushed lightly and muttered a response as he requested an Uber.
The trio waited patiently as a car pulled up, placing Inuyasha in the backseat with Koga; Naraku climbed into the passenger seat. He looked back at the two betas in the back seat before searching for his phone briefly. He scrolled through looking for his sister's number, he dialed it quickly waiting for an answer
"What do you want, Naraku?" she said quickly
"Are you still at Kyora's" he said rolling his eyes
"Yeah we've been waiting for you guys for hours, Sesshomaru's not answering his phone"
"I'll explain later okay, just stay with Kyora"
"I'm actually meeting you know who in a few minutes"she said softly
Naraku cringed and said "Great! Stay with him"
"Why? And where's Sesshomaru? Kyora's worried"
Naraku sighed "I can't talk right now and Sesshomaru needed to cool down, he's probably at home"
"Cool down? Naraku what the hell -"
"Just stay with him alright!"
"Fine whatever! I want an explanation tomorrow"
Naraku looked back at Koga and said softly "Yeah okay, just don't come back until I call you"
"Fine" she said roughly before hanging up
They arrived at his apartment shortly, he hopped out and pulled Inuyasha into his shifted him in his arms as he carried the sleeping figure towards the building. He instructed the blue-eyed beta to open the main gate, stepping inside as he walked towards the stairs.
Koga looked around gingerly and asked "Is there an elevator?"
Naraku laughed while adjusting Inuyasha's body in his arms "No princess, I'm on the 7th floor"
They reached his front door, and he handed Koga the keys. Pushing the door and walking inside he walked over in the dark to the mustard coloured couch placing Inuyasha down softly. He switched the lights on and watched Koga's eyes widen;The space was painted a deep red with jewel toned accented furniture, there was a coffee nook in the corner beside the couch. Graffiti littered the walls adding an urban feel to the apartment. Koga noticed in the living room there were a couple large sized canvases with paint cans covering the floor.
"Is this yours?" Koga said walking towards the canvas that was covered by a piece of fabric, he reached out to remove it before Naraku grabbed his hand swiftly.
He chucked "It's not done, i'll uhm show you when it's finished" he said rubbing the back of his neck nervously.
He walked into his bedroom as the beta followed him, he was silently glad that he cleaned the space before tonight. Grabbing a large t-shirt and some shorts, he handed them to the beta.
"Here ya go, you can sleep in that" he said
"Thank you for everything, tonight I mean" Koga said softly
Naraku closed the gap between them and spoke gingerly as he brought a large clawed hand to the smaller demons face
"You can count me baby"
Koga blushed slightly as the alpha looked into his eyes, the spider demon began to lean slightly towards the beta until a thud startled the wolf demon.
Koga rushed into the living room with Naraku following behind him annoyed slightly
"Mhm the fuck" Inuyasha said as he tried to pull himself from the floor stumbling lightly.
"Where the hell am I"
"We're at Naraku's Yasha, it's okay," Koga said softly, approaching his friend.
Inuyasha looked up at the pair before doubling over and emptying the contents of his stomach all over the floor, and he choked roughly before passing out beside the puddle of vomit.
"I hate him" Naraku sneered
Sorry this took me so long, I had a few ideas and finally decided on one lol!
