Chapter 21: Realization

Inuyasha has never felt so shitty in his life. He groaned as he opened his eyes slowly. He took deep breaths as he took in the place he is in. Then he smelt it.

Sex.

He felt someone wrap their arms around his body tighter. He looked down to see Kikyo sleeping with a satisfied smirk on her face. He noted that they had sex since they are both naked.

Inuyasha sighed and scratch his head. Then a thought crossed his mind.

'What happened? I don't remember Kikyo and me last night,' he thought.

He furrowed his eyebrows as he tried to remember what happened last night. He got out of bed, gently taking Kikyo's arms off him. He looked around and noticed there is a bathroom.

'Cool. Not bad for a new club,' he thought as he went in with his clothes from last night. He was surprised that their was a shower too. 'I guess they really are going to make business here after all.'

He turned on the shower. As he scrubbed the sweat of last night he began to think as hard as he can to remember what happened last night.

'All I remember is watching the wench dance with some guy,' he thought and growl at the thought. Yes, he is jealous. 'Then out of no where I wake up with Kikyo next to me.'

He frowned. 'What really happened?'

He started to shampoo his hair. He was really trying to remember. Then a flash went through his mind. He saw himself arguing with Kagome and. . .trying to. . .'

'Hey there, you ass. You finally woke up. Well I hope you're happy.'

Inuyasha sighed. His stupid conscience is back.. 'Why are you mad?'

His conscience frowned. 'Because I think you made a real bad thing last night.'

'What cause I slept with Kikyo? Nothing new.'

'You idiot! I can't believe you can't remember last night!'

'You do?'

His conscience rolled his eyes. 'Surprisingly, yes.'

Inuyasha's eyes lit up. 'Cool. Now tell me what happened.'

'Well I remember but didn't understand it to well cause you were really drunk. I'm surprise you're not throwing up.'

Inuyasha sighed. 'Me too. So what happened. I remember I was arguing with the wench.'

'Yeah, and you tried to rape her, jackass.'

Inuyasha's eyes grew wide. 'I did?'

'Yup. But you didn't cause you saw her cry of fear.'

Then a flash of Kagome crying came through. Inuyasha froze. 'I did that?'

'Yeah. Sucks don't it? No matter how much she has hurt you, you still feel bad if you hurt her, huh?'

'What else happened,' Inuyasha demanded.

'You walked away from Kagome when you noticed you were hurting her, and you wanted some time alone and came into this V.I.P. room'

Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. 'Okay. That I could believe that, but how the hell did Kikyo end up here?'

'That's what I wanted to know too. She did come and said something about overhearing you and Miroku coming to the club. By then you were really drunk.'

'Yeah. She could be a stalker. But how the hell did we end up in bed?'

His conscience sighed. 'You were turned on, dude. Not because by Kikyo, though, but by Kagome.'

Inuyasha growled. 'Then why did I take it out on Kikyo?' Then a flash came through his mind. He could of swore he saw Kagome fuckin him instead of Kikyo. (AN: remember in the last chapter he somehow saw Kagome in Kikyo cause they look alike.)

'Cause she was the one who fuckin seduce you. She knows she can control you better when you're fuckin drunk as hell!'

'But why?'

'I don't know.'

'Do you remember anything else?'

His conscience thought hard. 'Oh! I remember Kagome walking in!'

Inuyasha tilted his head in confusion. 'How did Kagome came into this?'

His conscience shrugged. 'I don't know. But she was crying.'

'Why?' This is really confusing him.

'No idea.'

Inuyasha sighed and got out of the shower. He grabbed his clothes and put them on. His ears tweaked as he heard laughter.

Curiosity took over him and he opened the bathroom door slightly as he saw Kikyo put on her clothes, and talking on her cell with someone. Inuyasha narrowed his eyes and tweaked his ears to listen what she's laughing about because her laugh sounded victorious.

"Can you believe that peasant actually cried when she was us."

Inuyasha listened confused. 'The only person she calls peasant is. . .Kagome. So Kagome did saw us?'

'I guess she did.'

'But why would she cry? Is she upset or something?'

'Nah. She's just happy she saw you fuckin Kikyo's brains out! OF COURSE SHE WAS UPSET!'

'But why?'

His conscience rolled his eyes. 'Are that dense, boy? Seriously, are you that stupid and blind?'

Inuyasha was going to retort until he heard Kikyo speak again.

"It was perfect. I mean I didn't even set or plan it and she just walked in. I don't know how she came here or why, but the fact that she saw us is good enough for me. Now she believes all the things I told her. She was crying like a baby, I tell you."

That somehow made Inuyasha shocked.

'Are you seeing the light now?'

'What did she tell Kagome?'

'Does it look like I know! I have no idea.'

'But Kagome is a gold digger.'

'ARG! You ARE dense and stupid. Did you not hear that Kikyo said something to the woman you love?'

Inuyasha nodded. 'Yeah but I thought she was mad about the whole revenge on her thing.'

'Me, too. But I guess we were both wrong about that. It's obvious that Kikyo said something. She is a sneaky, evil bitch. So I think you should get the truth out of her.'

Inuyasha nodded. He's still a little confuse but now he knows Kikyo has something to do why Kagome and he are so angry.

Kikyo laughed. "Okay, well I'll see you later, Na-"

She didn't finished cause she jumped when she heard a bang. She turned to see Inuyasha standing there angry.

'Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit. Shit.' She let out a nervous laugh. "Inu-poo, you're awake. Are you going to take me home and drive me to school?" she said sweetly.

Inuyasha growled. In a blink in a n eye, Kikyo was pushed to the wall with Inuyasha's hand around her neck.

"Oh, I'll be ready for school, alright. I'll take you home. But first why don't you tell me WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU SAY TO KAGOME AND WHAT THE FUCK DID YOU DO!"

"Miroku, don't you think Kagome is a little not herself, today?" Sango asked her boyfriend as they sat down for lunch.

"Hm. I think you're right. Something happened last night that we don't know at all," Miroku said as he observed Kagome.

Souta and Kohaku were chatting away, but Souta sneaked a few looks at his sister. She came home crying and he has never seen her so broken before. He tried to talk to her but she kicked him out of the room. So it's really bad. He sighed.

Kagome sat there quiet, doing her homework. That's one clue why Sango grew worried. Kagome never does homework during lunch. Kagome had on a blank face. She looked at Sango and Miroku, who seemed surprised that she acknowledge their presence.

"Are you guys going to tell me why you're staring at me cause it's very annoying," her voice seemed lifeless.

Sango's face grew worried. "What happened to you Kagome?" She knew it has something to do with Inuyasha, since he hasn't shown up for class yet. Miroku knew this also, they agreed not to say his name, just incase.

"Did my stupid, hanyou friend do anything to you?" Miroku blurted out.

Sango smacked him on the side of the head. "You idiot," she hissed.

Miroku rubbed his head. It stung. He shrugged at his girlfriend. "What? You said not to say his name, I didn't."

Sango rolled her eyes. She turned her attention to Kagome, who seemed calm. This surprised her because she expected her to cry. "Kagome?"

Kagome sighed. "I'm fine. It doesn't bother me if you mention or say Inuyasha's name."

The couple started at her, flabbergasted. She said his name and didn't break down.

As if reading their mind, Kagome sighed and closed her notebook and put her homework away. 'I'm done shedding tears for him. Last night was just a reality check. Nothing is a fairytale,' she thought as she stood up. "I'm going to put this in my locker. I'll be back."

Everyone nodded and when she turned to walk away they looked at her with pity. Kagome could fell their stares. She didn't do anything, just walk away.

The hallways are empty. Not really, there's only very few students walking around. Either they're just cutting class or bored because there is nothing interesting in the cafeteria.

Kagome slammed the locker door as she finished putting her stuff in. She started walking until she heard someone call her.

"Kagome?"

She turned around and saw Shinichi. Shinichi has a few classes with Kagome. He has a cute crush in her since the beginning of the school year. His orange hair really brings out the color of his eyes which are green. He reminds her of an older Shippo, because Shinichi is a fox demon and because of his appearance.

"Yes?" she said quietly.

Shinichi looked down at his shoes and blushed. "Um. . .I was. . .I was. . .wondering if I can ask you something."

Kagome turned her full attention to him. She didn't really like guys who act shy as he did. She knew what he was going to say but maybe it'll help her move on faster. "Yes?"

Shinichi rubbed the back of his neck. "Um. . .would you go out with me to the movies sometime?" he asked sheepishly. He looked up and froze.

Kagome raised an eyebrow as she noticed his scared face. "Is something wrong?"

Shinichi gulped and shook his head. He stepped back a little. "You know what. . .um. . .never mind. . .I was just joking. . .I'll see you later." And with that he ran away frightened.

Kagome sighed. 'So much for a date. Wonder what his problem was?' She turned only to run into a hard chest. Her body grew stiff for a second when she smelled Axes body spray. Now she knows why Shinichi ran. She looked up and frowned. "What do you want?" she said coldly.

Inuyasha had a frown because he didn't like another guy asking Kagome out. He looked down at her. His breathing was shallow. "We need to talk," he said huskily.

Kagome's frowned grew deeper. "We don't. I told you to stay away from me. Are you fuckin deaf?" her voice was so angry and passionless.

Inuyasha winced a little, but kept a straight face. "No, I'm not deaf. But we really need to talk," he frowned as she pulled away her hand when he tries to grab it. "Kagome, we need to talk about us."

Kagome let out a soft laugh. "Us? Let me tell you something you gay ass bitch there is no 'us.' You got that. Now leave me alone." She turned to leave but Inuyasha grabbed her by the wrist and turned her to face him.

"Listen to me. I screwed up, okay? I really did. Big time. I can't take back what I did, ut you have to believe me when I say we really need to talk. Please?" he surprised himself by the tone of voice he used.

Kagome jerked her hand back and slapped him, hard. "How dare you tell me we need to talk! And do you expect me to believe you when everything you said to me and did to me was a lie?" she yelled. She fought the tears in her eyes. She promised she wouldn't cry. 'He's not worth crying for,' she reminded herself.

Inuyasha could see the pain in her eyes and it killed him seeing her like this. The look on her face was indescribable.

"It wasn't a lie, Kagome. It was all real," he whispered.

Kagome couldn't take the pain in her heart. "How could you stand here and lie to me, you bastard," she whispered.

Inuyasha shook his head vigorously. He tried to put his hand s on her shoulders, but she backed away. "I'm not lying. You have to understand. Let me explain," he said desperately.

"STOP LYING! I WASN'T LYING! YOU WERE! IT WAS ALL A LIE!" Kagome yelled as she grabbed a fistful of her hair.

Inuyasha tried to calm her down but trying to hug her, but she pushed him away roughly and screamed. "Kagome! I wasn't lying!" he yelled to get her attention.

"What about last night, Inuyasha? You and Kikyo?" she said as she turned her back to him.

Inuyasha took in a deep breath and exhale. "That's what I wanted to explain to you?"

Kagome's shoulders shook.

"Kagome, please don't cry," Inuyasha groaned.

Kagome looked at him. She wasn't crying, she was laughing. Inuyasha looked at her in disbelieve.

"You know? I shouldn't be this worked up. You know why, right? Like I said, there is no 'us.' There never was. Never will," she said quietly.

Inuyasha felt his heart clench in his chest. "Don't say that," he whispered.

"Why? It's true. I can't trust you. I want you to leave me alone. I never want you near me. I don't want you to talk to me. Not even to look at me. You hear?"

"Kagome you can't say that," he tried to reason.

Kagome laughed. "I just did. And you know what I regretted the most," she whispered.

"What?" he whispered, but in truth he wished he didn't say anything for he fear what she might say.

Kagome looked in straight in the eye. No emotion what so ever was in her eyes. Her eyes were rosy red, her cheeks were flushed, and her lips were pale as white. She looks like a mess.

But to Inuyasha she still looks beautiful.

"I regret falling in love with you," she whispered.

Inuyasha froze as his eyes widen. 'She. . . .'

He tried to speak but it was too late.

Kagome left. Leaving him alone.

What they didn't know is two pairs of eyes were spying on them, once again.

"Call Kouga, Ayame, Miroku, and Sango."

"Why?"

"Because this shit is getting on my nerves and we need back up as soon as possible."

"You sound like a military dude."

"Shut up."

Kohaku nodded as he took out his cell to call Kouga, who is in detention by his time.

Souta looked at the shocked Inuyasha. Somehow, he felt Inuyasha was saying the truth because he has seen the way he looks at his sister and he knows he loves her.

"Souta?"

He turned his attention to Kohaku. "What?"

"Kouga said he knows what to do," Kohaku explained.

Souta sighed. "Good."

"Why did we spy on them again?"

Souta shrugged. "Just wanted to be there in case my sis needs me."

Kohaku nodded and grin. "Scooby will get his Scooby Snack?"

Souta grinned. "Yup."

Inuyasha still stood there, looking at the spot where Kagome stood.

'She. . .'

He needed her to say it again.

He closed his eyes and dug his claws into his palms drawing blood out.

The bell rang.

Inuyasha opened his eyes and walked out of the school. He looked at the blood in his palm and frowned. He looked up at the sky.

'I'll get you back Kagome. One way or another. I'll get you back. Cause I love you, too.'

Hey! I'm really, really, really, really sorry that most of you guys were displeased by my previous chapter. I know it wasn't the treat you guys wanted. Sorry for making them suffer so much. I'm not like regular authors, making everything like a happy fairytale and such. I was even told I'm different, so I apologize. But it will get better. And I would appreciate if you guys have the patience and bare with me. I know I'm taking a long time, but I don't like to rush things. I know what I'm doing. Once again I am very sorry for my previous chapter. Love is the greatest thing in the world, but ever heard that love is pain and it is worth waiting and suffering for.

And for you guys who love the last chapter, thank you so much! You guys are really nice. And thank you for complimenting me on my writing style. I am different. I'm a very unique person like Souta and Kohaku, but I'm smarter than they are. And sorry if the chapter sucked, again. I was told last chapter sucked.

Question of the day- How would you react if the person who hurt you so much confessed their love to you?

Tootles!
