6 AM
Kagome's sleep was disturbed by a phone call. She looked at the screen and saw her boyfriend's name.
"Stupid." She said under her breath as she hit ignore.
"She's not answering."
"Probably because you forgot about her." His friend, Miroku said.
"Shut up! I-it just slipped my mind."
"Why are you even bothering with her if you have Kikyo?"
"Kagome has a special place in my heart. Out of all the girls, I love her the most. She always reserves the newest games for me, buys me clothes every other day, and she wants to get a place with me!" His face turned grim. "A-and after what happened, I think she really needs me. I gotta stick around."
"Sounds like you've got a keeper."
"I'd be lost without her."
1PM
Kagome got off the bus and saw Koga sitting on a stoop nearby with Ginta.
"Hi." She said sweetly as she approached him.
He smiled and stood to greet her. "Hey, Kagome."
"My mom made lunch for you to thank you for bringing me home last night." She said as she handed him a paper bag.
He grasped her hand and bowed his head. "Thank you for taking time out to bring it to me."
"Oh it was no trouble, really!"
"Why don't I walk you to work?" He suggested.
"Sure." She smiled.
"So did you reprimand that boyfriend of yours?" He asked as they strolled to TFP.
"No..." She said shamefully. "I haven't even spoken to him. He's probably mad at me."
"So?"
"What do you mean 'so'?"
"You deal with too much from him. He needs to understand what it feels like to be forgotten."
"It's not that bad. He has his good traits."
Koga smirked at her. He liked her unbelievable loyalty. "You're something else, ya know that?"
Kagome laughed. "I hope that's a good thing."
"Yeah. I just know one thing—it couldn't be me. There's no way I'd put up with any of this shit from anyone."
"If you ever fall in love, you might change your mind."
He snickered. "Never. I'm a lone wolf. No waifu, more liafu."
Kagome giggled. "What?"
"I dunno. It's somethin' I heard Ginta say. He's rubbing off on me in a bad way."
They laughed as they approached the door.
"I'll talk to ya later. Thanks again for the lunch." He said as he walked off.
Kagome smiled at his back as he headed in the opposite direction.
"What has you smiling?" Sango asked curiously, as Kagome entered the store.
"It's that guy, Koga. He's...interesting."
"So you like him?"
"Well my mom certainly likes him."
"What?! He's already met Mrs. Higurashi?!"
"I-it was just by chance." Kagome explained. "When he drove me home last night, my mom was outside waiting for me."
"I see." She said suspiciously as she continued to stare at the cheerful Kagome.
Sango looked up and groaned. "Another busy day, I see. Let's get to it."
Break time—5 PM
Sango and Kagome went to a cafe across the street to grab a bite to eat. They made a habit of visiting a quaint spot called The Den ever since they started working at TFP.
"So you don't have plans this weekend right? Let's go shopping."
"Ooh shopping. Can I come?"
The girls turned to see Koga sitting behind them enjoying a coffee.
"When did you get here?" Kagome asked.
"Can't a man enjoy a coffee? I've been here for an hour. I needed to be alone for awhile."
"Why, are Ginta and Hakkaku annoying?" Sango asked.
"Nah. I just wanted time to myself. To think."
"Think?"
"I have a brain! And I often use it. I think about life and other...stuff."
"Impressive." Sango said as Kagome laughed.
"So..." He leaned forward. "Can I please go with you ladies this weekend?"
"Sure."
"Sango!" Kagome reprimanded in a hushed tone. "Girls weekend?"
"But he asked so nicely..."
Kagome agreed. It would be nice to hang out with friends for a weekend, rather than being cooped up with Inuyasha in his stuffy, rented room. "Okay! Come with us!"
"Great! So how will we all meet up?"
"Saturday 11 AM. Kagome's house. You drive."
"No problem. Can I bring Ginta? I'm sure he'd like to tag along."
Sango nodded. "We'll all have a great time."
Saturday morning
"I like when you wear your hair up!" Sango complimented.
"Inuyasha hates it. He says he likes women who wear their hair down because its sexy."
Sango scoffed. "He makes me sick."
Downstairs
Kagome's younger brother, Sota heard the doorbell and answered the door.
"Hi. Who are you?"
"I'm Kagome's friend, Koga. You're her younger brother if I'm not mistaken?"
He nodded. "My name is Sota."
"You seem like a tough guy. You're not gonna hurt me if I just hang out with your sister right?"
Sota laughed. "No it's okay. You're cool. She'll be down in a sec—"
"Hey Koga."
"Ah, nice up do. Shows off more of your face."
"That's what I was going for!" She said with a grin.
"Ginta's in the car so whenever you ladies are ready."
"We're ready!" Sango shouted eagerly as she rushed out the house.
Kagome and Koga looked at each other in confusion.
"She's surely excited." Kagome remarked.
"Ginta was excited too. They must be texting a lot." Koga shrugged. "Ready?"
Kagome nodded and waved to Sota.
In the car
"Anybody want some acid?" Ginta asked.
"Hey, hey! I told you it's rude to offer ladies drugs." Koga reprimanded as he drove off.
"I'll have some." Sango said.
"Really?!" Koga said in surprise as he looked back.
"Sango was called the campus hippie back in college. She loves to trip and smoke weed. I smoke with her sometimes."
"Cool, let's smoke later!" Ginta suggested as he passed Sango a tab, and placed one on his forehead.
Sango giggled.
"Ginta, you're gonna blow the fuck up." Koga said with a laugh.
Kagome withdrew from the conversation as her phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Hey. What are you doing?"
"I'm on my way to the mall with Sango and some friends."
"Friends?! What friends? You didn't ask me if you could go."
"I don't need your permission to do anything!"
"What's with that attitude? What are you hiding?!"
"Hiding? What are you stupid?"
"I can't take this stress Kagome. We need a break." Call ended.
Kagome let out an irritated sigh.
"What happened?" Sango asked as she placed the tab under her tongue.
"Inuyasha just broke up with me. All because I didn't ask his permission to go to the mall. I don't need his permission to do anything! What's with him?" She wondered, brows furrowed, arms folded.
"Don't let that stress you out."
"I won't. He does it all the time. It's just that he's away and I don't want anything to happen to him and that's the last conversation we had."
"Fuck em. You're hanging with us today! We're gonna have a blast." Koga reassured.
Kagome grinned and loosened up. She was looking forward to a fun day with friends.
Once Koga parked the car, Sango and Ginta quickly exited and wandered off before Kagome could even grab her purse.
"She left me." Kagome sighed.
"Let them be trippy together…what'd you want to come here for, anyway?"
"I wanted to go to Mushroom Bay, the craft store? I need some new fabrics for a dress I'm working on. I also promised Sota I would pick up a new phone case for him from the kiosk since he got an A+ on his midterm."
"I'll tag along wherever you want to go. I'm here for absolutely no reason." He laughed.
Kagome giggled. "You just wanted to hang out?"
He nodded as he extended his arm. "After you, miss."
Kagome blushed and bashfully clutched her purse in her hands as she headed into the mall.
1 hour later…
Kagome and Koga still hadn't seen Ginta and Sango, but they were enjoying their time together. Koga followed Kagome around, which reminded him of his childhood. He followed his mother and sister around the mall all day, and boy was it boring.
But…Koga enjoyed Kagome's presence. Her aura was soothing. He wanted to be around her all the time.
"Oh, how beautiful!" Kagome cooed as she stared at a diamond studded necklace in a jewelry store window.
Koga raised an eyebrow. "You like that? You want it?"
Kagome brought her eyes to the price tag. $3,750.99 ON SALE. She sighed. "No…it's very expensive."
'Is she serious?'
"Kagome…let me buy it for you. A gift from a good friend."
'Is he serious?'
"K-Koga. I can't let you do that."
He gently grasped her hands. "What good is money if I can't spend it on the people I care about?"
Kagome's face turned a furious red as she pointedly looked back into the window. "I-i-i-if you want to!"
Koga laughed. 'Wow, she's absolutely adorable.' "C'mon. Let's go."
They entered the jewelry store and Koga purchased that expensive necklace, as promised. He didn't have a girlfriend of his own, so he didn't mind spending this kind of money on Kagome. He wasn't very worried about making her boyfriend jealous—especially because that bracelet he bought her was fake.
But, Koga didn't have the heart to tell the poor girl. She was blinded by love, anyway. He knew she would learn eventually, and that he would be there to pick up the pieces.
Why?
He wasn't sure. Again, he considered Kagome to be a nice girl, and he didn't know enough of them. Women just wanted his money, or free drugs. They didn't care about who he was. Kagome did.
Later on…
Kagome and Koga were getting hungry. Kagome offered to buy lunch, but of course, Koga declined her offer.
"I'll buy lunch for everyone as soon as we find Trippy and Hippie."
Kagome laughed. "That's a good one."
"Oh, speak of the devil." Koga held up his phone. Ginta was calling. "Where the hell are you guys?"
"We're at Wacdnalds. You want anything?"
"Wait for us. We'll be there in 5 minutes."
"Where are they?" Kagome asked as she stood from the bench where she rested her feet.
"Wacdnalds. Let's meet up with them."
Kagome spotted Sango and Ginta first, and rolled her eyes when she saw Ginta's hands full of Shiny Girl bags. That was one of their favorite high end stores.
"Sangoooo…did you get a credit card?!"
"Huh? Oh, hey, Kagome. No, no. I didn't buy any of this."
Koga approached Ginta. "You're doing it again, aren't you?"
Ginta shrugged. "Sango is an angel. I wanna give her the world."
Koga sighed. "Yeah, you're doing it again." He placed a hand on his shoulder. "Good luck."
"We're gonna go sit down, okay? We want number 3's." Kagome called out.
Koga nodded.
"So…" Kagome began as they sat down. "You've known him for 5 days, and he's already splurging on you?"
"We have some sort of cosmic connection, I'm telling you, he's the one."
"What?!" Kagome screwed her mouth to the side. "Are you hi—never mind. You are."
"What about you? Looks like you got splurged on, too!"
"Koga just has a lot of money to spend."
She said nervously. "This was pocket change for him."
Sango rolled her eyes. "Yeah right."
After they finished their food, they all agreed it was time to go home.
