Chapter 6
Look At Me
"Mom! I'm home!" Kagome looked around at the mess that she had walked into and knew immediately that it was her husbands. She saw her mother and shook her head. " What happened? Did Inuyasha do this, because if he did I'll make him fix it!"
"Kagome calm down. It's really not a bother. Besides I like taking care of people," her voice grew suddenly sad. "Since Sota left for school, I rarely get to do it, but," she said with false and sudden excitement, "lets not dwell on that." Changing the subject, "Why don't you go and talk to Inuyasha." Kagome couldn't say no to her, so she did as she was told and went to se Inuyasha.
He was in her room eating ramen. Okay Kagome take a deep breath. He hasn't seen you yet so calm down. She took a moment to straighten he shirt and then walk into the room. He noticed her even before she had made her way to the stairs, but his pride wouldn't let him go to her. Plus he had a bowl of ramen in front of him that was just too good to let go to waste. However he did say the first words, however sarcastic they may be. "What took you so long?"
"Oh nothing much," she said just as sarcastic, " I just took another turn in the steam room." He was across the room faster than sound. The growls that were escaping him were so ferocious Kagome started to back away afraid that he might toss her again. Inuyasha grabbed her arms and lifted her into the air. She opened her mouth to scream but nothing came out.
"Did you sleep with him Kagome," he asked through clenched teeth. "Did you go back to that place so that you could be with him?" His eyes were beginning to turn red as his demonic side awakened.
"Inuyasha I would never cheat on you," tears pooled in her eyes. "That kiss... that guy... it meant nothing!"
"Then why did you kiss him," he shook her slightly, " Why would you do that to me!?"
"You called me Kikyo! What was I supposed to do? Huh!? You called me your dead ex-girlfriend!" Inuyasha's grip immediately loosed; to point where he almost dropped her. Finally he put her down and walked to her window.
Softly he said, " I had had a dream about her that night." He continued to look out the window as he began the story. " Kikyo was standing on the edge of a mountain with an open field at her back. The sky was dark with storm clouds, but it didn't rain. Only lightning and thunder came from the sky. She just stood there screaming at me." He turned to Kagome, "It was so real. She said 'Love me! Love me!' There was fire in her voice but her eyes... her eyes... they were so cold."
Kagome went over to him and grabbed his hands, " Your hands are shaking."
"Feh. I'm fine." He looked away. He put his hands on the windowsill to keep them still and just stood there. Kagome sat down on her bed. She could only look at Inuyasha after what he had just told her. The thought of that clay shell tormenting her Inuyasha made her simmer with rage. Bitch, she thought. If I ever see that evil, soul stealing, fake ass priestess wanna be, she'll regret the day she was brought back to life!
"Inuyasha, look at me..."
