Sorry about the delay in posting this! Also sorry if it's too short. Thanks for reading! –Ainsley
Inuyasha and kagome were giggling and just enjoying each other's company whenever Inuyasha's phone began to ring. He growled reluctantly pulling himself from Kagome's clutches. He picked up his phone when he saw that it was just an alert from his assistant Shippo. The time on his phone caught Kagome's eye, "wait what time did it say?" He looked back to his phone, his lazy gaze suddenly became very sharp. "Oh shit kagome! Its eleven thirty!"
"Oh no!" Kagome wailed, throwing herself out of the bed. Inuyasha sat up in the bed as he watched her gather up her clothes. She was zipping up one of her boots when he came to sit down next to her. He reached out and grabbed her hand pulling it into his. "I'll miss you." He gave her a serious look. She was at a loss for words when he pulled away and walked towards their pile of clothes to grab his own. She pulled on her boots and ran to the door. As she pulled it open she whispered, "I'll miss you too Inuyasha." And she shut the door to head home.
Inuyasha let the water of the shower beat down on his shoulders. He was upset and couldn't place why. Could he possibly have gotten attached to kagome? 'Not possible' he thought as he reached for his shampoo. The shower felt empty without her in it with him. The water didn't seem as hot and the space seemed so large, had the shower always been this large? He thought about his afternoon with kagome, it had been wonderful. They took their time when they'd had sex today. He would kiss her temple and whisper something to her to make her giggle or moan. She had him feeling some kind of way he couldn't even describe. He never would lay in the bed with Kikyo all night, just talking and laughing. With kagome he could talk about anything. He told her about his childhood and how his mother coddled him. Kagome would tell him how she was bullied in high school and that she worked in a movie theater when she was 19. He felt like he knew every tiny detail of kagome, but at the same time he knew nothing. It was easy for him to know who she had been, and how she was as a child but he didn't know his day to day kagome. He knew her when she was in his apartment. He had no clue who she became when she unlocked the door to her own apartment. Did she hum while she cooked dinner? Did she iron her husband's clothes for him early in the morning? Did she sing in the shower? He was jealous that Kouga got to see kagome every night he realized. He wanted to be the one she danced around her apartment with and the one who she curled up next to at night to read a book while he watched TV. Why did he want that with kagome? He had that with Kikyo. 'It's just not the same' he decided. He turned the water off and stepped out of the shower, he didn't realize he'd had the water on so hot until he saw all of the steam floating around the bathroom. He walked into his bedroom, half expecting kagome to still be laying out on his bed. He wondered what it would be like to have kagome in his bed every night, all night long. To not just have the opportunity to have sex with her, but to also enjoy the feeling of sleeping with her. To have her head curled under his chin and his arms wrapped around her, he sighed, that sounded amazing. He pulled on his work clothes and pulled his hair up into a high ponytail so it could dry. He walked to the candy bowl by the door to grab his ring. He saw Kagome's in there shining next to his. He picked it up and analyzed it. It was quite a pathetic little thing. The gold had dulled and the three little diamonds embedded in the band were worth less than the suit he was wearing. 'I'd get kagome a beautiful ring' he stopped. What in hells name made him think that? He figured he should return Kagome's ring and that he would when he saw her next Friday. He shoved it in his pocket and slipped his on and walked out of the apartment to head back to his real home.
Kagome tried to sneak into the apartment. All the lights were off and she figured Kouga had already gone to bed. She sighed in relief and set her purse down and slipped out of her boots. The kitchen light switched on and she saw Kouga standing in the doorway. "Hey baby I'm so sorry that I'm late I was at San-"
"save it kagome." He gave her a hard look. "I called Sango." Kagome's heart sank. "Sango said she hasn't seen you in weeks." Kagome felt like she was about to faint. Kouga knew something was going on. "Kagome where have you been." He walked in front of her to look her in the eyes. She saw how hurt he was, and how betrayed and angry he felt. Kagome didn't know what to say.
"Kouga I don't know what you're talking about." She stuttered, backing into the wall. He followed her every step with his own. He looked her up and down. Her hair was in a messy bun on top of her head, and he specifically recalled that she had worn it in a lovely ponytail that morning. He eyed her dress, the belt was thrown on loosely and the dress itself was wrinkled. Then he eyed her hand, the tan line from where her ring sat was shining at him as though it was blinding, "where's your ring?" Kagome felt a wave of shock. She forgot to grab her ring! "Kouga I just forgot to put it on this morning, relax!" She hit his shoulder trying to play it off. Kouga stepped back and turned his head deep in thought. Kagome's heart was about to beat out of her chest. His face crossed over an array of emotions, there was confusion, hurt, anger, betrayal, and she might have even saw a glimpse of hatred. He turned back towards her, his eyes looked as though he was in pain, "who is he kagome?" She quickly retorted with, "no one! There's nothing going on with anyone!" The anger she saw began to swell. "I am not a damn fool kagome. Don't sit here and lie to my face that there's no one when all the signs are right in front of my eyes!" He had hardly ever raised his voice at her, and on the few occasions never had he looked at her with such hatred. "Kouga please." She begged, hoping she could explain it to him. But what could she explain? She cheated on him and he was angry. She ran up to him and grabbed his chest clawing at it to get his attention. "Let me explain! I love you please Kouga we can work this out." He shoved her off of him. Tears began to well up in her eyes, threatening to spill over. He turned to walk out of the room, "get out." He mumbled. "What?" Kagome didn't catch a word he said. "I said get out. I don't want you here. Go stay at your new friends house whoever he may be. You're not welcome here." He kicked her boots towards her and walked into their bedroom and slammed the door. Kagome grabbed her boots and purse and ran out of the door. She ran down the stairs and out onto the street. Her bare feet screamed in agony as she ran on the rough asphalt. She ran to the only place she knew she could go. Inuyasha's place was just a few blocks away, she could stay there.
Inuyasha snuck into the house. All the lights were out so he assumed he was the only one awake. He went to open his bedroom door and he heard the TV playing. He opened the door and smiled. Kikyo had apparently tried to wait up for him to get home and had fallen asleep waiting. His phone buzzed in his pocket. He fished it out and looked at the ID. 'Kagome?' He thought. Kagome knew better than to call him while he was at home, why was she calling now? "Hello?" He was greeted by hysterical sobbing, "kagome?" "Inuyasha I need to stay at the apartment tonight." She wailed. He had to hold the phone away from his ear to avoid a headache the whining would cause him. "What's going on kagome?" She sniffled for a few seconds before she choked out, "Kouga kicked me out." She sobbed and he thought. He wanted to comfort her. Did she want his comfort right now? Certainly it was his fault. Kikyo would never know he came home if he just snuck back out now. He checked his watch, it was one in the morning. He realized she was still on the phone crying, "I'll be right over." He had already begun to walk to his car before he hung up.
