Chapter 9
~A month later~
Kagome and InuYasha were back in school again, and Kagome was feeling much better.
"How are you feeling today Lady Kagome?" Miroku asked as he and Sango approached the other two.
"I'm feeling better, I'm just really tired. Thank you for asking Miroku." She answered with a smile.
Everyone smiled at her but all were worried about her. They could tell she was tired, but they could also tell that something was bothering her.
InuYasha walked Kagome home like always and the couple sat in her room talking and laughing.
"Hey babe, will you sing me something?" InuYasha asked as his head laid in Kagome's lap.
"I guess, if you want me to. What do you want me to sing?"
"Something you've written."
"Well, that's a lot. Here, pick on from this." She said as she pulled out a folder.
After a couple of minutes of searching through the gigantic folder he pulled out some sheet music and handed it to Kagome. She carefully got off the bed and sat down at her keyboard.
2 AM and she calls me 'cause I'm still awake,
"Can you help me unravel my latest mistake?,
I don't love him. Winter just wasn't my season"
Yeah we walk through the doors, so accusing their eyes
Like they have any right at all to criticize,
Hypocrites. You're all here for the very same reason
'Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button, girl.
So cradle your head in your hands
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe
May he turned 21 on the base at Fort Bliss
"Just a day" he said down to the flask in his fist,
"Ain't been sober, since maybe October of last year."
Here in town you can tell he's been down for a while,
But, my God, it's so beautiful when the boy smiles,
Wanna hold him. Maybe I'll just sing about it.
Cause you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table.
No one can find the rewind button, boys,
So cradle your head in your hands,
And breathe... just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe
There's a light at each end of this tunnel,
You shout 'cause you're just as far in as you'll ever be out
And these mistakes you've made, you'll just make them again
If you'd only try turning around.
2 AM and I'm still awake, writing a song
If I get it all down on paper, it's no longer inside of me,
Threatening the life it belongs to
And I feel like I'm naked in front of the crowd
Cause these words are my diary, screaming out loud
And I know that you'll use them, however you want to
But you can't jump the track, we're like cars on a cable,
And life's like an hourglass, glued to the table
No one can find the rewind button now
Sing it if you understand.
and breathe, just breathe
woah breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe,
Oh breathe, just breathe`
As soon as the song ended InuYasha wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her temple. Both just sat there for a couple of minutes before InuYasha picked her up and sat Kagome in his lap.
"That was beautiful Kags. Why did you write that song babe?" InuYasha whispered against her neck.
"I wrote it when my father died. It was reinforced when I found out that I was pregnant because my grandpa and everyone besides by mother and Souta wanted me to have an abortion. I just needed to breathe, so I kind of forced myself to write a song to get all of my feelings out. Even though I'm friends with Sango and Miroku I could bring myself to tell them how I was feeling or what I was going through because I know they couldn't understand. No one did." Kagome said before burying her face into InuYasha's chest.
"I'm sorry baby. I wish I had been here for you. I love you so much." InuYasha pulled her face up to his and kissed her deeply.
"I love you too. I'm so glad you're here now."
He kissed her again and laid his head on her chest listening to her heartbeat as if it was his favorite sound in the world. Suddenly Kagome practically jumped out of bed knocking InuYasha out of bed.
"What the fuck are you doing Kagome?"
"I forgot I have a doctor's appointment, and I can't miss it."
"A doctor's appointment for what?"
"Um… my yearly gynecologist check-up." Kagome hesitated. InuYasha didn't quite believe her but decided to let her go and hoped that she would explain it later.
~A couple of hours later~
"Hey Mrs. Higurashi. What was so urgent that I had to rush over here?" InuYasha asked, extremely out of breath.
"I called you over here because I really need to help Kagome. She is up in her room bawling, but she won't explain it to anybody. She walked in the door and ran up to her room and when I went to check on her she told me that she didn't want to see anyone for a while. I'm really worried about her. Do you think you could find out what is going on?"
InuYasha nodded his head before beginning to climb the stairs to Kagome's room. He knocked on the door before stepping inside.
"Kagome, what's wrong? Why are you crying? You know my beautiful girl is not supposed to cry. I hate it when you cry." Kagome flung herself into InuYasha's arms.
"It's just not fair. Why does everything bad have to happen to me? Just as I was finally getting to believe I could be happy I get knocked back down." She sobbed out.
"What are you talking about Kagome? What could have possibly happened to make you so upset?"
She mumbled a response but InuYasha couldn't understand.
"You what?" He asked.
"I can't have any more kids!" She screamed.
