Chapter Six- Leave Him
Science class was a drag as usual. The teacher put on a god-awful movie, closed his eyes, and started snoring. Oh how I wish I could take my cap eraser and shove it down his windpipe. What a day that would have been.
"Kagome do you have a particular reason why you killed your science teacher?"
"Does killing me slowly with boredom count as a good reason?"
"Fair enough."
I'm so glad the bell rang when it did. Lunch time! And lunch means ramen and Inuyasha. My two favorite things. I walk out of the classroom before I feel a hand grasp my wrist. The hand drags me off towards the bathrooms and into one of the stalls. It's Songo. Mascara is streaming down her cheeks.
"Songo, what's wrong?" I gasp watching the black tears trace her jaw line.
"He's a lecherous, good for nothing cheat!" Songo sobs into her hands.
"Who's he after this time?" I ask not sounding surprised.
"YOUR COUSIN KINKY-HO!" Songo balls leaning into my right shoulder.
"I swear! That bitch! GRRR." I growl wrapping my arms around her shaking body.
"She was all over him in English. He's my boyfriend not hers!" Songo cries clenching her fists.
"I'll talk to her. She won't touch Miroku again." I promise sitting her and myself down on the toilet's lid.
"Really?" Songo says looking up at me from her hands.
"Really." I say tearing some toilet paper off the role.
"Thanks, Kags." Songo sniffles.
"No problem. Blow." I laugh holding the wad up to her nose.
Songo blows her nose and I throw the wad into the sanitary napkin bin. I take Songo's hand and unlock the stall door. We walk over to the sinks and I turn the faucet on. Cold water splurges out of the sink as I run a paper towel under the moisture. Taking the soggy paper out of the water I clean the runny make-up. I then reach into the back pocket of my jean-skirt and pull out waterproof eyeliner and mascara.
"You know mw way too well." Songo giggles.
"Of course. Baby blue or violet eyeliner?" I ask holding out the two choices like a door prize.
"Violet please."
"You got it!"
Finally Songo is all fixed up. I take her hand in my own and we walk out of the bathroom. We walk down to the cafeteria and waiting for us is Inuyasha and Miroku. Songo acting as if nothing has happened takes Miroku's hand and walks over to our usual table.
"You're late." Inuyasha comments on my tardiness.
"Sorry, I had something rather someone I needed to take care of." I say face blank.
"Songo?" He asks searching for my eyes.
"It's my cousin. Songo let Kikyou get to her. I can't watch anymore of my friends be hurt by her." I reply anger rising in my voice.
"What do you intend to do?"
"Tell her off of course!"
"Kags…."
"What?""Just be careful is all."
"Keh."
After lunch I walk to my locker. There waiting for me is someone I wasn't expecting. It's Hojo. I thought I kind of shoved him off this morning. Why is he here?
"Hojo?" I ask walking towards my locker.
"You have a minute?" Hojo asks leaning against the door.
"Not really. I have to get to class. Someone's expecting me."
"Inuyasha?"
"Please move I don't want to be late."
"Why are you friends with him?"
"He's sweet, he's good to me, and he's my best friend."
"A half-breed?"
"Look I don't care what he is! I like him for him!"
"Kagome, this morning you ran away before I asked my question."
"And…"
"I wanted to ask if you'd go to the ball with me."
"No."
"What?"
"No. Move so I can get into my locker."
"Why?"
"I don't have to give you an answer."
"I won't move till you do."
"I'm waiting for someone else to ask me."
"It's him isn't it? The half-breed!"
"MOVE HOJO!"
"It is him! That idiot half-breed!"
"SHUT UP! YOU DON'T EVEN KNOW HIM YOU POMPOUS ASS!"
"So defensive. You'd pass up a chance with me to go with a half-breed?"
"Damn straight! I don't care what you say. I love Inuyasha."
"A half-breed. I can't believe you."
"Move now."
"What a joke."
"SHE SAID MOVE!" I hear a growl from behind Hojo. It's Inuyasha.
"Oh, speak of the devil." Hojo laughs.
"Move or I'll move you myself." Inuyasha shouts grabbing Hojo by the collar of his shirt.
"Yash…" I whisper looking into his unreadable eyes.
"Kagome, I'll meet you outside your next class. Go. I'll take care of Hobo here." Inuyasha grumbles.
"Kay." I say meekly walking off.
It isn't but a few moments later that Inuyasha appears with my books under his shapely arms. I walk over to Inuyasha and he holds my books out to me. I drop the books onto the ground and throw myself at the amber-honey eyed hanyou. His arms wrap around my waist tightly and protectively, and I melt into the shape of his body. Tears leak from the corners of my eyes as I feel his face press up against the side of my neck. After a while we separate from our warm embrace and he stares into my eyes.
"Why are you crying?" He asks wiping away my salty tears.
"All those things he said. They were terrible." I sob covering my face with my hands.
"Kagome." Inuyasha whispers pulling me into another tight embrace.
"I mean it you know. Every word."
"You love a half-breed?"
"You're not a half-breed. You're a hanyou. A beautiful silver haired hanyou."
"This is what you think?"
"Yes. I love you, Inuyasha."
"Thank-you. Thank-you so much."
Inuyasha pulls me out arms length and stares into my eyes. I loose myself in his amber-honey ones, and melt under his touch. It takes everything to keep my knees from buckling underneath me. With one hand Inuyasha cups my cheek. I lean against that hand and close my eyes. When they open Inuyasha's lips are an inch from my own. Puckering my lips I press mine to his. The world starts crashing down, space and time collide, and oxygen doesn't seem necessary. When we break apart we're both gasping.
"Do me a favor?" He laughs.
"Anything." I pant.
"Remind me to brace myself next time."
"Who says there's a next time?"
"Kags…"
"Kidding! Was I really that bad?"
"You no; me terrible."
"We could try again."
"You asked for it."
Everything starts over. Who needs oxygen when you have sweet carbon dioxide to fill up your lungs?
Isn't that sweet…. So what is going to happen with Hojo and Kikyou. And what's with this ball? Who's going? Find out in the next chappie if you rate. ;D
