Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha
Where we left off:
After school…
Inuyasha was leaning against the trees where Kagome had told him to meet her after school. He had his sunglasses on again and was thinking about his family 'the only reason I am here is because my mother told me to get a chance at a normal life. As long as Sesshomaru rules, I am allowed to stay here as long as I need. But how long is…all that I need. I can only become king if I find a wife and all the princesses I have met are snobby and only want to be with me for the money and the power. I want a princess that is sweet and won't use me for what I have, one that I can truly spend the rest of my life with. I'm kidding myself; there won't be a princess like that, only mortals would truly appreciate being a queen, and a girl like Kagome wouldn't take it for granite. Not again, why am I always thinking about her, but she would make a good queen. Ugh, I can't get her out of my mind.'
Just after that Kagome showed up andasked if he was ready to leave. Inuyasha happily agreed and they went to the museum together like they both agreed on.
Now:
Kagome and Inuyasha left the school grounds and headed downtown towards the museum in Inuyasha's car. The museum was a large building probably fifty or sixty years old, but it's one of the most beautiful pieces of architecture in the entire city. As they were driving they immediately hit it off and where deep into a conversation filled with laughter, touching, teasing, everything was perfect. They stopped for some ice cream but then soon continued on their way to the museum. When they arrived, they were amazed at how beautiful it was; neither of them has really been in the museum before, especially Inuyasha. They walked in and walked around a bit looking at artwork and sculptures.
"Well, we better get to work." Kagome implied.
"I think there are some artifacts over in the feudal era exhibit, we should go check those out."
"Wow, I never knew you knew so much about this."
"Kagome, it's common sense."
"Oh…well lets get going."
On the way to the exhibit it was kind of an awkward situation, because neither of them where talking. I guess you could say they ran out of things to say on the way here. Anyway even when they got there and where taking notes on the artifacts they still kept to themselves.
'What is he thinking? …Wait a minute I know exactly what he is thinking, he probably thinks I am an annoying little klutz, he said it before."
'This is pointless, why do I even bother going on these stupid trips, this entire royal marriage deal is totally messing me up. Rin is a mortal, and is engaged to Sesshomaru, so why wouldn't I be able to be with Kagome…No! I have to stop thinking about that.' he glanced towards Kagome and she was still taking notes, "Although, she would be perfect, she is pretty and nice…'
"Kagome?"
"Yah, what is it?"
"Umm…"
"Yah...?"Kagome questioned
"…Are you done yet?"
"Oh, yah…I guess."
"We should get going then, it's late." He blushed
"Inuyasha, did you maybe want to come over and have dinner?"
"Dinner? I hardly know you."
"Yah, well I thought it would be nice."
"I guess so, I have nothing better to do."
Inuyasha wanted to act casual, as if he thought it was a stupid idea, but that was only to hide the fact that he was jumping for joy inside. She had just invited him over for dinner.
They exited and Kagome said thank you to a clerk and they walked down the stairs when Kagome turned back to smile at Inuyasha and she lost he footing (again) and started to fall through the air when something caught the back of her blouse. (Guess who? Haha)
"Oh my god!"
Kagome was flung into his chest as he caught her. She buried her face in his shirt and held on so tightly as she id she where about to fall again, besides it felt so good to be so close. She looked up at him and stared into his eyes.
"Inuyasha?"
"You really need to be more careful." He laughed
Kagome goggled back, "Yah. But I had you there to catch me." Kagome couldn't believe what she had just said; she covered her mouth and turned away from him walking to his car.
'Why on earth did I say that? I am such an idiot…'
'That was unexpected…'but Inuysha soon had a second thought, 'Although she had to have said it sooner or later, I have saved her ass so many times already.'
Inuyasha opened the door for Kagome who was still bright red. Then entered him self. Kagome waked as Inuysaha put his hand on the stick shift and then put the car into drive. She followed his arm up to his face and he never once looked at her or even seemed like he noticed that she was staring at him. He just looked ahead to the road and concentrated on driving.
"Kagome?"
'Oh shit, he probably wants to know why I'm starring at him, how did he know?'
"I'm sorry."
Inuyasha looked at her like she was an idiot, "Why the hell are you sorry? I just need to know where you live?"
"Oh right, its Higurashi shrine, the one on the hill with the big tree."
Inuyasha thought the directions where a bit funny so he let out a small laugh but she never noticed. The drive was quite and Kagome just looked out her window with the wind blowing her hair. This time Inuyasha was the one to stare and he slowly looked away from the road. She looked so peaceful with the wind blowing and the Tokyo light sparkling off her face and in her eyes.
"This is the spot Inuyasha, you can just park here on the street."
He snapped out of his daydream and parked the car. As Kagome stepped out she proceeded to her home and Inuyasha walked slowly behind her, taking in the view of the city as he walked up the steps.
"Hurry up, Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled behind her self to the boy.
He ran the rest of the way up the stairs to catch up to her and she led him to main house. She slid open the sliding door and dropped off her bags and told Inuyasha to do the same. She also told him to wait in the living room and she would go find the rest of her family. While she was gone Inuyasha sat on the couch and looked around. It felt awkward to him being in a house not surrounded by jewels and servants, great rooms and family generation portraits…also…many memories of what his father had worked so hard to get them too. He sat up and walked over to the bookshelf, which was filled with pictures of Kagome when she was still really quite small. The one that caught his attention was a picture where Kagome had been dressed in traditional Japanese clothing. (A/N: There is a flash of it in the first movie when Kagome's mom is explaining how important the tree is. Just to let you get a better idea of what I'm talking about, that is if u saw the movie. On with the story...) he thought she looked absolutely stunning and he placed his fingers in the glass, slowly touching the picture.
"I wish I could have something like this," he mumbled too him self.
Just then he sensed someone behind him and placed to picture where it was and turned around to a very angry man.
"Who are you and what are you doing here?"
"Well, ummm, Kagome invited me."
"Kagome?"
"Yah, I'm a friend school."
"Don't use that bullshit with me."
"What?"
"I know what your up too. All you boys want these days is to get a girl to sleep with you and leave them with the guilt. GET OUT!"
Inuyasha was dumbfounded; he didn't know what to say…why would someone he just met, accuse him of something so wrong. He was about to yell back at the man until Kagome showed up behind him.
"Takashi! I was looking all over for you," Kagome noticed the angry expression on her stepfathers face and she was worried. "Takashi?"
Takashi pushed Kagome to the ground and told Inuyasha more sternly to get out.
"Takashi! Inuysaha is my friend!"
He looked at Kagome with a raised eyebrow.
"I invited him over for dinner because we were late at the museum doing a project. I am not sending him home."
Takashi was unsatisfied and walked out of the room with a snort of disapproval with his stepdaughter. Inuyasha walked over to Kagome and helped her up.
"Are you okay?"
"Yah, I'm fine…"
"Are you sure I should stay after all?"
"What? Of course I want you to stay…my stepfather can be a real hard ass sometimes, just don't get in his way and you will be fine."
At Dinner.
The family of five (Kagome, Souta, Kagome's mom, grandpa and Takashi.) And Kagome's guest sat down at the table to a traditional meal of rice, fish, noodles and tea. The conversation at first was going nowhere and everyone ate silently and uneasily until Kagome's mom asked some questions.
"So, Inuyasah, where are you from?"
Inuyasha looked up from his plate with a mouth full of rice and fish. He swallowed and cleared his throat.
"I'm from the coast. All my family is still there I am just visiting some other relatives here."
"Really? Well that's nice, whoa re you visiting?" Kagome's mom asked politely.
"My brother and his fiancée, I'm actually here for their wedding at the end of the year."
"Well that's really nice, are you going back to the coast when schools done?"
"I don't know, I was thinking of getting a job and living on my own."
The table was silent once again and only the sound of cutting knives and chewing people was heard.
"Ummm, what your brothers name Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.
"Ses…sho…maru…"
"Oh, well that's the new kings name isen't it?"
"…"
"Is your brother the king?' Souta asked enthusiastically.
"Oh NO! ummmm, Sesshomaru is just a common name I guess." Inuyasha tried convincing them that his stupid brother was someone else, and it worked.
Kagome's step dad left the table with silence, not even showing a hint if interest in the conversation that evening. Instead he cleaned his plate and left to the bedroom. He walked into the bedroom and locked the door behind him. He walked over to the nightstand and picked up the phone dialing a secret number. A mysterious man answered and Takashi started talking to the man on the other line.
"What is it?" the mysterious voice asked.
"I need someone taken of."
"Yes, who is it?"
"The boys name is Inuysaha Takahashi, find as much information you can about him and get back to me with all the details as soon as possible."
"Any particular reason sir?"
"He seams interested in Kagome, I can't have anyone interfering with the observation."
"Yes sir."
