Anything for you
Though you're not here

Ch.19 Break-up
RECAP.
KNOCK KNOCK KNOCK
"I'm coming!" Inuyasha yelled as he walked to the door. He was pissed off by the interruption and was getting ready to kill whoever was at the door. His excitement had been killed when he had to hurry and pull his pants on. He threw the door open to find Miroku and Sesshomaru standing there. "You better have a good reason for being here." He growled.
"Did we interrupt something?" Miroku asked since Inuyasha was only half dressed.
"Reason! Now!" Inuyasha told them.
"Miroku told me about Kagome's little fall." Sesshomaru told him. "Geez little brother, get some clothes on."
"Do you know what happend or something?" Inuyasha asked more seriously, ignoring his last comment.
"Isn't Kagome here?" Miroku asked.
"Ya?" Inuyasha answered.
"Let's talk outside." Sesshomaru told him.
"Ok..." Inuyasha said becoming more worried by the moment and they walked outside and he closed the door as they walked a few feet away from the house.
"We just came to tell you that since you don't know what's wrong with Kagome that you should just agree with whatever she says cause it's easy to see she's not sick and just agree with what she says until you figure it out." Miroku explained.
END.RECAP.
"If it's some kind of curse then it could affect her if something were to go wrong." Sesshomaru said.
"...fine. How will we know for sure though?" Inuyasha asked quietly.
"Don't know. We'll just have to be able to tell." Sesshomaru told him.
"Well now that we've said what we came to say we'll leave you to tend to your...bye." Miroku quickly corrected himself when Inuyasha sent him a warning glare.
Both Miroku and Sesshomaru turned to walk to the car and left Inuyasha thinking about what he was just told. He sighed not quite understanding what he had to do but he heard a noise from inside and turned to rush inside to see what it was. When he walked inside he saw Kagome sitting against the wall on the floor with his cell phone sitting beside her.
"Fuck!" He muttered to himself before he ran to her side. He knealed down and brought his hand to her back and the other against her cheek. "Are you ok? What happend?" He asked with a worried tone. She still had a sort of dazed look on her face and she leaned forward toward him and he sat on the floor as she leaned against him. He wasn't sure what to do, he just wrapped his arms around her and rubbed her back. He was about to go get the washcloth again since it seemed to work the last time but didn't move when she seemed to be ok. "Are you ok?" He asked her quietly. She had suddenly started crying against his chest and he tightened his grip around her. "Why are you crying?" He asked in a more affectionate tone.
"I don't know why I keep fainting." She mumbled through her crying where he almost didn't understand her. He sighed and hooked his arm under her legs and picked her up and walked over to the couch and had her sit on his lap.
"Hey...please stop crying." He begged her as he wiped her tears away from her face and then leaned forward and started leaving light kisses on her cheek. When she calmed down some and looked up at him he caught her lips in a sweet kiss. He stroked her cheek as she brought her arms up in front of her with her hands fisted between the both of them. She held back a sob and he wrapped both his arms around her to pull her against him so her body was right against his. When she had seemed to calm down he pulled away a bit and loosened his grip around her just a bit. "You ok?" He asked asked once again and she just nodded vigorously trying to keep from crying as she lied her head against his chest. "Your not hurt are you?" He asked her as he held her close. She just shook her head and let out a sigh.
He sat there holding her against him and started thinking about what Miroku and Sesshomaru had said.
"What's wrong?" He asked her as he looked at her as she looked down. "Come on Kaggs, talk to me." He told her when she didn't say anything. She looked up at him and slowly leaned toward him and stopped when she was half an inch away from his lips as she just looked into his eyes as he looked back, watching to see what she was doing. He watched her close her eyes before she closed the gap between their lips and he returned the kiss even though he didn't quite understand what she was trying to say. He pulled back a little but she just kept leaning toward his lips. "Hey, Kagome, baby." He said as he pulled back but she just leaned toward him again. "Kaggs, sweety, can you talk to me please?" He asked her and she stopped trying to kiss him as she looked back into his eyes not saying a word. He looked back into her brown beautiful eyes, watching to see so many emotions lying deep within her. "What's wrong?" He asked her and he watched as she turned to look to the side as she bit her lower lip. "Why won't you talk to me?" He asked quietly. He was beyond confused and wished she would talk to him beginning to get agravated at the same time since she seemed to keep ignoring the subject.
"I..." She started but then stopped.
"You what?" He asked her as she turned to look at him again. She looked into his amber eyes and just kept getting a feeling everytime she did look into his eyes. She didn't know what it was but everytime she looked into his eyes she just had the sudden urge to be closer to him. She now regretted looking into his eyes cause it was like she had no control of herself, that someone else was controlling her even though she knew it was her. She leaned closer to him but pulled away once again. She turned so she was facing him totally with her legs on each side of him. He was still confused about what was going on as she just leaned forward kissing him once again as she straddled him and wrapped her arms around his neck. He was definitely surprised at how she was acting and definitely by what she was doing, she finally realized what she was doing and her eyes widened as she pulled away and brought her arms against herself. He was so thankful she was sitting more near his knees then anything else.
"Inuyasha..." She started as she looked down at the couch. He was still a little shocked at how he just sat there letting her straddle him without him doing anything about it and not to mention that she actually did that. "Inuyasha?" She asked when he didn't answer.
"Huh? What?" He asked when he realized she was talking to him.
"Could...Could you take me home?" She asked not looking up at him.
"But what if you faint again?" He asked her.
"I just want to go to sleep." She told him hoping he'd agree.
"You can stay here, I want to make sure you'll be ok. You've already fainted twice today. I don't want you to be alone and something happen. You can sleep here." He assured her. "Just...maybe no more of your little seduction kisses, your killing me." He chuckled making her blush. He kissed her cheek before he helped her up and walked her to his room. He went back into the living room after leaving her in his bed and picked up his cell phone she had. He knew he'd be prying but his curiosity grew as he walked over to the couch and sat down. He went to incoming calls and found alot of numbers he didn't recognize. When he went to outgoing he found a few of the same numbers that were incoming. The next thought that crossed his mind was if one of them were Yari's number. He growled at the thought then it began to rang. He was afraid to answer when he saw it was one of the numbers he just saw but answered anyway.
"Hello?" He asked.
"Uh...Hello?...I must have the wrong number..." The man on the other line said.
"Who is this?" Inuyasha asked hiding his nervousness inside.
"This is Joutei...who is this?" The man asked.
"This is Inuyasha, what are you calling for?" Inuyasha growled.
"Oh your Inuyasha. I've heard alot about you. So I guess I do have the right number. Glad you finally came back, Kagome has been talking about you alot. It probably sounds bad having a guy calling her but she left a message on my phone and I just got it. Maybe she'll talk to you, it worried me so I called as soon as I could but apparently the call was made yesterday. She was crying and saying something about needing to talk and not wanting to tell Sango. But you should probably talk to her." Joutei explained.
"Ok...i'll talk to her then..." Inuyasha said hesitantly.
"Good, oh yes, also try talking her out of hanging with that Yari guy. I swear he's bad news, when I met him I wanted to punch his face in. He just gives me a bad feeling." He said.
"Thanks for telling me. I'll talk to her when she wakes up, she's a little sick." Inuyasha told the guy.
"Ok, well have her call me, bye." Joutei told him before hanging up.
Inuyasha got up and walked back to the room to find Kagome already asleep. He didn't want to disturb her but didn't like the fact that she was crying over something a couple of days ago and not wanting to tell Sango about it. It must have been serious if she didn't want to tell Sango because her and Sango had grown really close. He carefully sat on the bed and hesitantly reached out and stroked her face. He had noticed how she was wearing blush on her cheeks, she never used to wear blush. He stroked his thumb over her cheek making her turn her face from him. He looked down at her questioningly and then leaned forward to kiss the same cheek. He watched as she closed her eyes tightly in her sleep. He leaned forward once again to her ear as he lightly rubbed his thumb across her cheek.
"What's wrong?" He whispered in her ear. She didn't respond but moved closer to him and he wrapped his arm around her waist but still wanted to know why she reacted the way she did. He lied down next to her and she just moved closer and buried her face in his chest as he held her close to him. 'Bad feeling? Kagome what was that guy like? If he hurt you I swear i'll kill him.' He thought to hemself not realizing the growl he let out. Kagome heard him growling and nuzzled him a bit trying to calm him down.
"I missed you." She said quietly as she enjoyed being in his embrace. His growling ceased as he leaned down to kiss her. "I'm fixing to just leave though cause your not letting me sleep." She giggled quietly. He chuckled before pulling her to sit up in his lap and lightly kissed her lips. He stopped to look at her without leaving her lips before he kissed her again. He lightly rubbed his lips against hers before grazing her bottom lip with his fang and before he had the chance to kiss her again his cell phone vibrated with a blue light flashing off the side of it. He looked down at the screen at the text message he got.
"It's Sango. She said to stop bothering you and let you rest." Inuyasha read the screen with a chuckle. Kagome smirked and grabbed the phone from him before putting it behind her.
"Forget her." She smiled before pulling him down into another kiss.
"I'm starting to think my innocent Kagome got more brave while I was gone." Inuyasha smirked. She blushed with a smile as she giggled. She actually didn't know what it was that had caused her to be more brave. Usually she would be visited by those little butterflies but she hadn't felt their presence for a while now. "I need to talk to you about something though." He told her in a more serious tone.
"About what?" She asked curiously.
"Whose Joutei?" He asked her and watched as she froze and looked down away from him. "Sango told me about your dates so i'm not going to be mad. Sango made me agree it was ok before she set you up." He explained to her.
"I know...well...he was just one of the dates but we only went on one date because he knew I missed you to much to want to date but Sango kept making me go out." Kagome shrugged.
"Why did he say you were crying? What happend that you couldn't tell Sango?" He asked her and her eyes widened and she rubbed her cheek instinctively.
"I-I was just upset." She told him with a half smile.
"Liar." He said simply and left a light kiss on her lips. "Tell me, what happend?"
"I told you." She told him.
"Your lying. What happend that you can't tell me?" He asked. For some reason his pressuring had irritated her easily and she sent him a glare before speaking.
"I told you already! Why don't you believe me!" She yelled not realizing this time that she was yelling at him.
"Because I know you better then that and I can tell your lying! What happend! And why doesn't he trust that Yari guy! Did he do something to you!" Inuyasha demanded, wanting answers.
"Why were you even talking to Joutei!" Kagome asked.
"He called my damn cell phone! I answered it and he said you were crying! What the hell happend!" Inuyasha asked once again.
"Nothing happend! I was upset! Ugh! Why am I even talking to you! You fucking idiot! Stay out of my business!" She yelled finally realizing what she was doing leaving Inuyasha in shock that she had said that. "No! Wait...I didn't mean that." She told him more calmly. He sighed and pulled her into a hug.
"You are my business. If anyone touched you then I want to know. I won't allow someone to hurt you." He explained to her quietly and kissed her cheek and she hissed in pain. "Why does it hurt everytime I touch your cheek?" He asked her.
"It doesn't...you just surprised me." She lied and he could tell.
"Kagome...why do you keep lying to me?" He asked with a sigh.
She also sighed and looked down thinking something was definitely wrong with her and everytime she spoke she seemed to keep saying the wrong thing to Inuyasha. She figured she would lie once more so he would back off until she figured out why she kept snapping at him. 'No...I just want him to leave me alone for some reason. It's like...I don't want him around me right now...even though not to long ago I wanted nothing but to be near him.' She thought, feeling as though she didn't want to be tied down.
"Kagome?" He asked again. She didn't think and it was like her mouth had mind of its own as she answered.
"Cause I thought it'd hurt you for you to find out i've been fucking other guys." She smirked as she got up and walked out of the room. He was in shock as he sat there from hearing what she had just said. She knew she had lied but it was like once again she couldn't control herself from what she said. A part of her just wanted to get out of there and have fun. "Oh ya by the way, I think we should just stop seeing each other." She yelled from the other room.
"Wh-What?" He asked as he stood up then walked into the room after her.
"Ya...I just feel tied down." She shrugged. Now he knew something was wrong with her, this wasn't his Kagome talking. He then remembered what Sesshomaru had said again and felt his heart stop even though it was just for her sake.
"Alright." He forced himself to say.
"Hey i'm going home." She told him as she grabbed her jacket.
"Need a ride?" He asked her.
"Nah, I think i'll manage." She smiled before walking out of the house.
"God dammit." Inuyasha muttered before grabbing the phone and dialing.
"Hello?" Sango answered.
"Where did Kagome go yesterday?" Inuyasha asked simply.
"Uhh...she was at the bar with me and Miroku yesterday." Sango answered hesitantly.
"Is that all?" He asked her.
"Well she went home with Yari afterwards because he was drunk and she thought she should take him home." Sango told him.
"She hasn't been...all over other guys has she?" He asked hesitantly afraid to know the answer.
"No, I had to make her go on the dates. She didn't want anything to do with the guys but Yari was drunk so she took him home and I think she went home after dropping him off." Sango explained.
"Your positive?" Inuyasha asked her.
"Well...no." Sango answered feeling as though she was being interrogated. "Why? What happend?" Sango asked.
"What's Yari's number?" He asked her as he grabbed a pen and notepad. Sango was hesitant to give him the number but he sounded serious so she gave it to him then he hung up and called Yari's number.
"Hey sexy." A man answered the phone.
"Who the fuck are you calling sexy!" Inuyasha demanded.
"Who the hell is this!" The man demanded.
"That doesn't matter, what matters is if this is Yari." Inuyasha told him.
"Yes, who is this?" Yari asked.
"This just so happens to be your worst nightmare and if I find out you touched Kagome then you'll wish you had never met her." Inuyasha explained.
"Oh god did she go running to someone cause that little accident?" Yari asked with an irritated tone to his voice.
"No she didn't but you just sure as hell assured me that something happend and if you don't fucking tell me then i'll find you and make it so as you'll never walk a day in your life ever again." Inuyasha growled.
"Hey man, it wasn't my fault." Yari said in a non-caring way.
"I don't fucking care whose fault it was! What I want to know is if you laid a hand on her." Inuyasha's growl intensified.
"Ya but she'll be ok, just put some ice I told her and the bruise will go down. I'm at work right now so I gotta go." Yari told him.
"You fucking bastard, you better hope I never run into you or you'll be praying I don't kill you!" Inuyasha threatened him, he couldn't believe this guy spoke as if hitting Kagome was ok. He went to his room and went straight to his closet to change before jumping in his car and driving where he knew Sango was. He walked inside going straight to the bar and Sango was sitting there talking with Miroku, Sesshomaru and Rin. He didn't say a word as he grabbed her arm and dragged her to the back room.
"What the hell is wrong with you!" Sango asked when he let her go.
"Wouldn't you like to know." He answered simply. "When I agreed for you to set Kagome up with Yari, I was never told that this bastard was going to hurt Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled. Miroku walked in to find why he had dragged Sango to the back.
"Inuy-" He started.
"Get the fuck out of here! I'm talking to Sango right now!" Inuyasha yelled at Miroku.
"What do you mean hurt her?" Sango asked ignoring what was going on.
"I mean that he fucking hit her! Joutei even susprected it!" Inuyasha yelled at her.
"Who's Joutei?" Miroku asked.
"One of her dates." Sango answered.
"She broke up with me and my dumbass brother told me to agree with what she said!" Inuyasha yelled looking at Miroku.
"You agreed to break up with her!" Sango demanded. "Why the hell did you do that!" Sango yelled at him.
"Because your dumbass boyfriend told me too!" He yelled.
"I didn't know she'd do that!" Miroku yelled at the both of them.
"Hey!" Sesshomaru yelled as he walked in. "You guys need to be a little more quiet." Sesshomaru told them.
"Fuck off!" Inuyasha told him.
"Well since you already agreed then you need to continue going along with it and just act as if whatever she does and says doesn't bother you because she probably also doesn't realize what she's doing herself." Miroku explained.
"Whatever you do you better learn to watch what you say." Sesshomaru told Inuyasha talking about the way Inuyasha spoke to him.
"Shut the hell up Sesshomaru." Inuyasha told him sending him a glare since it was his fault all this had started. Sango walked to the side and took out her cell phone.
"Hey Kagome? What are you doing?" Sango asked curiously.
"Hey, nothing. Sleeping, what's up?" Kagome asked half asleep.
"I was just thinking we could hang out." Sango offered.
"Well...I guess you could come over." Kagome suggested.
"Ok great, i'll be right over." Sango told her before hanging up. "Let me talk to her and then we'll see what happens." Sango told them before walking out of the room to grab her purse to leave.
When Sango had arrived to Kagome's house she had been making coffee for them.
FIVE.HOURS.LATER.
"Hello?" Sango answered her phone with a yawn.
"You say your going to talk to Kagome and never call me back?" Inuyasha asked.
"Well I forgot, I fell asleep when I got home. I meant to call you though." Sango told him.
"Ok but what did she say?" Inuyasha asked ignoring everything else.
"Nothing. She's just confused right now. She says she just keeps feeling all these different feelings. Then she said she wanted to go to a club tomorrow to have some fun. So i'm thinking you should meet us there. She said that everything she had said to you she was lying but part of her hated that she kept snapping at you but then part of her felt like she just wanted to have fun. She also said that keeps getting really tired so she went to sleep when I left." Sango explained.
"Oh." He said, relieved that she was lying. "I just wish I knew what was going on. I thought everything would be easy once I got home." Inuyasha sighed.
"Ya...I know." Sango understood why he was acting like such a jerk. "Well hey, i'll tell you more tomorrow. I'm going to sleep." Sango told him.
"Alright. Night." Inuyasha said as he lied back in his bed. He didn't understand anything at that moment. "This is a nightmare." He mumbled to himself.
THE.NEXT.DAY.
"Hey." Inuyasha said as he walked into Sango's family's house since they had all been invited to eat dinner there and he had seen Kagome.
"Hey." Kagome said back sounding more like herself now.
"I talked to Yari." Inuyasha told her.
"Why did you do that!" Kagome demanded. Scratch that, she didn't sound like herself anymore.
"Because I wasn't getting any answers from you." Inuyasha told her simply. "I actually care about you believe it or not."
"Whatever." Kagome shrugged.
"Damn your aggravating." Inuyasha rolled his eyes and turned to walk away and heard her make a noise. "Did you just hiss at..." He started but when he turned around she was gone. He walked into the kitchen where everyone seemed to be and found Kagome sitting at the bar bothering her brother who was eating sushi.
"Oh this is disgusting." Sota complained and pushed it toward Kagome. "Try it." Kagome smiled as she looked down at it and sniffed it before she picked it up with her hands and dropped it in her mouth. "Ugh...that's disgusting." Sota said with a disgusted face as he got up to get away from her. Inuyasha looked over at her with a confused look and walked over to her once again.
"I thought you said you didn't like sushi?" He asked her in a whisper.
"I don't know why I said that, it's delicious." She smiled as she ate it.
"Hey Inuyasha." Kohaku said when he saw him.
"Inuyasha!" Sango's mother said when she heard he was there and went over to hug him.
"Hey." He smiled.
"I'm glad you made it." Mrs. Houko said.
"Ya me too." He nodded and she returned to cooking.
"You seem hungry Kagome, glad you came with an empty stomach." Mrs. Houko laughed. "Here have some tuna fish." She offered.
"She doesn't like.." Sango started but watched as Kagome accepted it.
"Thank you." Kagome smiled and grabbed a fork this time as she ate it without the crackers that she was handed with it. "It's delicious." She smiled.
"Glad you like it." Mrs. Houko smiled back.
"I thought Kagome hated seafood?" Miroku whispered to Sango.
"Ya...and now she's eating tuna fish?" Sango said as she continued to help cook. Inuyasha went over and sat next to Kagome.
"You like tuna fish too now?" He asked her and she nodded happily. "Why don't you eat it with the crackers?"
"Because I like it better by itself..." Kagome told him.
"Ok..." He shrugged.
"Ok foods almost done. I'm just going to wash the dishes we used first." Mrs. Houko said.
"I'll do it mom." Sango offered.
"Ok thank you. I'll be right back." She smiled.
"Sango need some help?" Miroku asked.
"Sure, you wash, i'll dry." She laughed as she put Miroku to washing the dishes.
"Fine." Miroku sighed. He smirked and as he was washing the dishes filled a cup with water before throwing it at her.
"Miroku!" Sango yelled when she got wet. She glarred at him and grabbed the sink hose and sprayed him but he had ducked down and she sprayed straight toward Kagome at the bar which was beside the sink.
"Ah!" Kagome yelled when she jumped out of her chair.
"Oh...i'm so sorry." Sango said trying to keep back her laugh.
"Sango!" Kagome yelled trying to wipe the water off her quickly.
"I'm sorry! It was Miroku's fault!" Sango told her.
"It was not!" Miroku defended himself.
"Hey calm down it's just water." Inuyasha told Kagome when she tried hard to wipe it off.
"Ya...it just...feels uncomfortable." Kagome shrugged and sat back down looking at Inuyasha with a nervous look. Sango and Miroku went back to washing dishes and cleaned up the water before Sango's mom had returned. He looked at Kagome with a confused look. He didn't understand why she looked nervous just cause he said that.
"Ok time to eat." Mrs. Houko smiled as she walked back in the kitchen.
The dinner had been pretty pleasant. No one fought or said anything mean to the other person, it was just like they were all getting along again. Even Kagome kept smiling at Inuyasha which surprised him a bit but he smiled back anyway. He was wondering when the confusion was going to ever end. They were now all sitting in the living room with coffee. Sango was actually surprised when Kagome had sat next to Inuyasha on the couch. Hell, even Inuyasha was surprised.
"Yes I know but still, this is the only way i'd ever get you kids to visit me." Mrs. Houko laughed.
"Sorry mom." Sango apologized.
"Ya, we've been busy I guess." Inuyasha shrugged. He watched as Kagome took a sip of her coffee and scrunched her nose then reached forward to grab the milk before pouring more into her glass. The coffee seemed to be more milk then anything else after she sat back once again. "You know that's not going to taste like coffee anymore." Inuyasha whispered to her.
"I know." She smiled at him.
"Kagome how come Sango picked me up and not you?" Sota asked her out of curiosity. "You don't seem sick."
"I feel better now." She shrugged.
"You were sick Kagome?" Mrs. Houko asked.
"Well she was just feeling dizzy is all." Sango answered for her and Kagome nodded. "Where's dad by the way?" Sango asked trying to change the subject.
"He had to work late today." Mrs. Houko shrugged. Kagome leaned forward and set her cup down but jumped with a scream when she heard thunder from outside. "Are you ok?" Mrs. Houko asked.
"Ya...sorry, just scared me..." Kagome said a little embarrassed.
"Oh it's ok." Mrs. Houko laughed. Kagome sat back down on the couch and heard as rain started to pour and she sat back as far as she could as if trying to hide from the rain. Inuyasha looked down at her and saw the fear that was apparent in her eyes and he grabbed her hand out of instinct.
"Hey it's ok." He assured her as he stroked the back of her hand and she scooted toward him and lied her head on his shoulder. He felt her hand shaking and wrapped his hand around her small delicate one and brought it up to his lips to leave a kiss on the back of her hand and she looked up at him again and smiled. Sango gave him a questioning look and Inuyasha just sent her his own questioning look.
Time went by as everyone talked and Kagome ended up falling asleep cuddled up against Inuyasha.
"Well I guess someone needs to take her home." Mrs. Houko laughed when she saw Kagome sleeping. "She looks pretty comfortable, it'd be a shame to wake her up."
"Ya, but she was looking forward to going out tonight." Sango told her mom.
"Can we go play my video games now?" Kohaku pleaded.
"Yes, go." Mrs. Houko sighed. "No matter how old those two boys are they still seem to be the same young boys." Mrs. Houko laughed.
"Well I better get Kagome home." Sango sighed and walked over to her.
"I got it." Inuyasha assured her and picked Kagome up in his arms. Sango looked at him with an unknowing look not sure if he should be taking her home. Kagome seemed to be confusing everyone.
"Oh wow, it's 'still' raining outside." Miroku said when he looked out the window.
"I've got some umbrellas. I'll go upstairs and get them." Mrs. Houko said and ran upstairs.
"I thought she didn't want anything to do with you?" Miroku asked curiously.
"Ya that's what i've been thinking. But she kept smiling at me all day. She keeps acting like a little kid. It's like she doesn't know herself what it is she does or wants." Inuyasha explained as he looked down at the sleeping girl.
"That's what I thought too." Miroku nodded.
"Not me. I thought she was acting like something else." Sango shrugged as her mother came back down.
"Here you go kids." Mrs. Houko said and handed them each an umbrella.
"Bye mom." Sango hugged her mother as she walked to the door with Miroku after he said goodbye also.
"Bye Mrs. Houko." Inuyasha said unable to hug her as she followed Sango out the door. Kagome heard the sound of the rain hitting the umbrella which awoken her and when she looked up to see Inuyasha she felt safe but then she realized the sound meant they were outside in the rain. Inuyasha looked down to see her awake and saw her looking at the rain with fear in her eyes. "Hey whats wrong?" He asked as he stopped and put her down. She didn't answer and held her arms in front of her as she leaned toward him as if so he could protect her from what scared her. He sighed and wrapped his arms around her. "Want me to take you home?" He asked her and she nodded against his chest. "Hey Sango! Don't worry about it! I'll take her home!" Inuyasha yelled past the rain. Sango nodded and left with Miroku. "Come on let's go in the car out of the rain." He told her as he led her away.
"Thank you." She said quietly. He smiled down at her and she smiled back and leaned up toward him. He leaned closer to her but was dissapointed when she just wrapped her arms around him to hug him. "Are you going with us to the club?" She asked him.
"I don't know." He answered even though he was told to meet them there.
"Can you?" She asked him, she felt more comfortable when he was around.
"I'll try." He told her and saw the dissapointment in her eyes as they walked the rest of the way to the car. When he dropped her off she had turned to him and leaned in an inch away from his lips but turned away and got out of the car since it had stopped raining. 'Damn you sure know how to confuse the hell out of me Kagome.' Inuyasha thought as he watched her walk inside before he drove off.
"Ok want me to meet you there then?" Sango asked.
"Ya, cause I still have to change and all." Kagome explained.
"I still can't believe we're going out this late." Sango laughed since it was already dark outside and when she looked up at the clock, it read eleven o'clock.
"Ya, nighttime is more fun. Is Miroku going?" Kagome asked her.
"Ya I think he's meeting us there." Sango told her knowing she wanted to ask about Inuyasha cause he told her how Kagome asked him to go.
"...ok see you there." Kagome said and hung up.
"Do we just wait here?" Miroku asked as they sat at a table waiting for Kagome to arrive.
"Ya, that's what she said, that she'd meet us here." Sango shrugged. They both turned to see what was going on when they heard a few whistles then a cat call being made then they saw the reason as Kagome walked over to the table with a smile as she looked behind her at the guy who had whistled.
"Wow Kagome, I thought you said you weren't ever going to wear that?" Sango asked when she arrived in the clothes she had gotten her which was the leather pants with chains hanging off them and the leather looking bra with zippers and chains hanging off the front. She closed her jacket over herself when she felt Sango didn't like how she looked.
"I wanted to wear it..." Kagome said carefully.
"Looks cute..." Miroku said when he noticed her uncomfort.
"Thanks." She smiled as she let the jacket go and let it fall open. Miroku looked the other way so he wouldn't get tempted to look anywhere he wasn't supposed to. "I'm going to go get a drink." She smiled before she got up. They sat there and sighed as they watched her leave. A few minutes later Inuyasha walked over to the table.
"I can't believe you guys are here this late. I was actually asleep when you called." Inuyasha told Sango.
"Well...umm...you can go back home and go to sleep." Sango shrugged with a smile.
"I'm already here aren't I?" He asked.
"Uhh...ya..." Miroku said. "Wait till you see her though. She looks h-...uhh...she looks ok." Miroku had to stop himself when Sango glarred at him. "I called up Koga too. Ayame was yelling at him saying as how it was his fault she was having mood swings so I told him he could come hang out and just relax for a while." Miroku explained.
"But Kagome..." Sango told him.
"Well...we don't really know if something is wrong with her." Miroku shrugged and both Sango and Inuyasha glarred at him.
"I'm starting to get worried, Kagome went for a drink a while ago." Sango said as she turned to look around.
"Hey guys!" Koga said as he walked over to them with a drink. "Damn mutt have you seen Kagome yet?" He asked.
"No why?" Inuyasha asked.
"Hell she looks fiiiiii-I-I mean she looks pretty good. She looks ok." Koga corrected himself when he got a glare from both Sango and Inuyasha. Inuyasha let out a sigh before walking off to find her. "Damn I never thought of Kagome to wear something like that." Koga said out of surprise.
"Ya well why the hell you bout to say she looks fine? She's your best friends girlfriend!" Sango yelled at him before hitting him in the back of the head.
"Shit, hey isn't that a good thing? I was just being honest. I knew she was hott but damn!" Koga chuckled and Miroku laughed also but gathered his composure when Sango looked at him.
"Sorry." He muttered.
"Idiots." Sango sighed and straightened out her knee length red strapless dress.
Inuyasha was surprised when he found Kagome. She was sitting at the bar drinking her drink with alot of guys surrounding her. He walked over to her and she was surprised when she saw him but glad also.
"You came." She smiled and he stood behind her and rubbed her back glarring at the other guys to back off. She laughed at his jealousy. She was just loving the attention she was getting at that moment. Suddenly she heard a song she liked and turned to Inuyasha. "Will you dance with me!" She asked excitedly wanting to go out on the dance floor for this song. He loved to see her happy again and smiled with a nod. "Thank you!" She said excitedly and took her jacket off before dragging him out to the darkened dance floor. He was surprised when he saw what she was wearing.
"Damn Kaggs, your clothes..." He told her and she stopped and looked up at him with a saddened look afraid of what he was about to say. She smiled when he had leaned down to her for a kiss but she stopped him and smiled.
"Your moving at my pace here. No kissing unless I let you." She smirked. He was surprised once again and nodded as he followed her the rest of the way to the dance floor. It was a slow song but she loved the music to it and when they got on the floor she wrapped her arms around his neck and rested her cheek against his chest as they swayed together. She had been feeling alot better and had more of her emotions back and felt the feelings she had for Inuyasha once again but the only thing was the way she handled them had changed. She wanted him to want her, in other words she was playing hard to get. She wanted to see how jealous he could get and what he'd do to have her. It was just something that caused her to want to do this, she knew that on a normal basis she probably wouldn't do anything like that but the night did something to her and made her feel more brave.
Kagome loved the smell of his cologne and kept playing with the collar of his maroon colored button up shirt. She couldn't help but enjoy the feeling of his hands stroking her bare back. She let out a sigh which continued on into a light purr without her noticing. Inuyasha had noticed though and looked down at her.
"Feel good?" He asked with a smirk and she looked up at him with a smile and nodded as she looked up into his amber eyes. Suddenly the light were turned on as the DJ spoke over the mic. He watched as it seemed her eyes had turned into slits before she closed her eyes with a hiss of pain.
"Ah. Bright." She said as she tightened her eyes shut.
'What the hell...first she's purring, then her eyes turn to slits and she hisses? She's not acting like a damn kid...she's acting like a cat.' Inuyasha thought.
She opened her eyes and looked back up at him and her eyes were normal again.
"I forgot my jacket." Kagome said simply when she realized she left it at the bar and grabbed her jacket then decided to get a drink while she was at it. "Can I have another drink?" Kagome asked.
"Wait, the DJ's speaking." The girl behind the counter told Kagome with a glare for interrupting. Kagome sighed with a roll of her eyes before jumping up on the counter.
"Fine, i'll help myself." She shrugged before jumping down behind the counter.
"Your not allowed to be back here." The girl told her.
"Well, your not doing a very good job at serving the customers. I asked for a drink and if your not going to get it then i'll get it myself." Kagome smirked and continued getting her drink. The girl glarred at Kagome as she jumped up onto the counter once again with her drink in hand and the girl grabbed the beer spout and pointed it at Kagome out of spite.
"Here, have some on the house." The girl told her before spraying it at her.
"Ah!" Kagome yelled as she jumped up onto a shelf along the wall that held a few plaques. Kagome hissed at the girl with a glare.
"Wha-ho, talk about sexy right there. Looks like we have a stray cat in the building." The DJ announced as a joke. Kagome looked over at the DJ with a glare which turned into a smirk and she jumped up onto a higher shelf and walked along it toward the stage then jumped down landing on her feet with her hand on the floor to keep her balance.
"Stray cat huh?" Kagome asked with a smile.
"Well aren't you a pretty kitty. I'll give you a home." The DJ chuckled.
"Where? The money your making the home you'd take me to wouldn't be to appealing." She smirked before pouring her drink over his head as a cheer errupted across the floor. Inuyasha and the others watched out of shock thinking she would get kicked out for sure.
"Our little kitty likes to play it rough? Bad ass little kitty." The DJ said as he grabbed a towel.
"You want bad ass? I'll give you bad ass." She smirked before pushing him off the stage since he was already standing near the edge. "How's that for you?" She asked as she crouched down at the edge to look down at him. "Are you comfy down there?" She giggled and Inuyasha rushed over. He stood next to the edge and motioned for her to come over to him. She was happy to see him asking for her and went over to him. "Hey." She smiled.
"What are you doing?" Inuyasha asked and looked over at the DJ get some help up from a few people. Kagome looked at him with a feared look.
"He was saying stuff about me..." She told him. "I was just defending myself...are you mad at me?" She asked him with a hurt look.
"No, i'm not mad. You just have to be careful." Inuyasha sighed. He couldn't tell her he was mad, she looked as though she would start crying. She smiled and nodded.
"I am." She said and stood up to grab her jacket. There were a few cat calls when she bent over to grab her jacket from the of the stage and she turned her head with a glare at the audience. She stood up straight and hissed at the crowd before jumping off the stage and walking over to Inuyasha. "I guess i'm a cat now." She told him.
"Do you like them calling you that?" Inuyasha asked hoping to find out if it was true what he had figured what was wrong with her.
"Hmm...maybe." She smirked as she started walking. "But you know..." She said and turned to face him with her chest up against his as she looked up at him. "They always did say that dogs and cats cant get along." She told him before turning around to walk back to where Sango was.
"What?..." Inuyasha asked to himself before following behind.
"So why aren't you guys dancing?" Kagome asked as she sat down. Sango, Miroku and Koga just looked at her out of surprise.
"I'm surprised you haven't gotten kicked out." Sango laughed and Kagome looked at her questioningly.
"Why would I get kicked out?" She asked a little saddened again. Inuyasha came up behind her and rubbed her shoulders.
"It's ok she was just kidding." Inuyasha assured her and glarred at Sango.
"Oh." Kagome smiled. "Well I just wanted a drink and then they started talking about me." She shrugged.
"Hey Kagome, are you feeling ok?" Koga asked her.
"Ya, I'm having fun." She smiled. "Why! You want to dance?" She asked excitedly.
"Uhh...sure..." Koga nodded when Inuyasha nodded knowing she'd get sad or upset again if he said no.
"Yay!" Kagome smiled and pulled Koga out to the dance floor.
"What was that all about?" Sango asked Inuyasha as he sat down.
"She's real sensitive to what people say." Inuyasha sighed. "I think she's a cat."
"Ya, everyone's saying that it seems." Miroku chuckled.
"No. I mean I think she's really a cat. I think there's some spell over her that's causing her to turn into like a cat demon or something." Inuyasha explained to them.
"You mean...just cause what's happend?" Sango asked not quite understanding.
"No theres more to it. Her sudden liking for seafood, her not wanting to get wet, her hissing and oh ya, when the lights went on her eyes went into slits for a few seconds." Inuyasha told them.
"I guess that does explain alot..." Sango said hesitantly.
"I say that explains alot. The question is how to fix it." Miroku told him.
"Ya your telling me." Inuyasha sighed and lied down on the table.
"What about her not wanting anything to do with you? Why does she now like your presence?" Sango asked since Inuyasha seemed to know what was going on.
"I don't know, i'm confused myself about that. Right now we just have to work on keeping an eye on her, she's bound to get kicked out if she doesn't behave." Inuyasha sighed as he got up from the table.
"Where are you going?" Miroku asked him. Inuyasha sighed before mumbling his answer.
"I'll be back."
He got up to walk outside for some air. There were two girls standing out there smoking as they talked and they both walked over to him when he leaned back against the building.
"You look stressed." One of the girls in a mini skirt said as she walked over to him.
"And you figured that on your own?" Inuyasha asked wondering what these girls wanted.
"Want a smoke?" The other girl asked.
"No thanks." He declined even though he had been dying for one all night. He had thought of his promise to Kagome but then remembered she was the one who broke up with him and he needed one right now. "Wait, on second thought ya." He said before the girls walked off. He took the cigarette and put it between his lips and one of the girls leaned forward and lit it for him. He didn't even notice Kagome walk out to find him.
When she walked out there and saw him with the other two girls she felt her heart sink. Was this how he felt when he saw her with other guys? But when she saw him with the cigarette in his mouth something in her clicked and she walked over to him and took it from his lips.
"Hey!" Inuyasha said but then saw it was Kagome.
"You promised me." She said quietly as she held it up. He looked at her now truly confused. Was it really her now? "Should I just start smoking this now?" She asked him with a glare.
"No. Hey, why aren't you inside?" He asked her and walked closer to her.
"I came to find you." She told him still giving him a narrowed look and dropped the cigarette to the ground before stepping on it with her black pumps. Inuyasha looked down at her with a smirk. "No more?" She asked him.
"No more." He smirked with a nod. She smiled and nodded before turning to walk back inside. He chuckled before walking inside too but instead of following her he went over to the bar. He decided he'd wait to see what she wanted exactly instead of trying to push her. He sat drinking his drink for a while at the bar and turned to look behind him when he heard a hiss. She was glarring at some guy who had groped her.
'I guess Miroku isn't the only one out there.' He thought and chuckled when she just walked over to Inuyasha.
"Why are you all by yourself over here?" She asked him and brought her arm behind his neck.
"Just drinking my drink." He shrugged with a smirk as he looked down at her.
"You don't look like your having fun." She told him and sat up on his lap. He pulled his arms away not sure what she wanted him to do. "I don't have some kind of disease that you'll catch if you touch me." She told him when she saw him pull away.
"Well your the one calling the shots here." He chuckled. "Besides you said cats and dogs can't get along." He smirked and watched her lips curve into a smirk of their own.
"Well I like to take risks." She shrugged and wrapped both her arms behind his neck. He smiled and brought his hand to her side and lightly grazed her bare side with his claws. She giggled and let out a soft purr.
"So let me ask you something." Inuyasha told her and let his expression turn more serious.
"...ok." She said hesitantly.
"Did you really sleep with a whole bunch of guys?" He asked her wanting to hear from her the truth.
"Truth?" She asked and he nodded as he looked straight at her. She smirked as she nodded. "No."
"You really are a bad ass aren't you?" He chuckled.
"Well I wouldn't just sleep with anyone. I'd rather wait for the right guy." She smirked.
"And what's theright guy for you?" He asked curiously.
"Hmm, a guy I can trust, that i've been going out with for a while. Someone who loves me and means it, who will always be there for me and will never leave me." She smiled as she got off his lap.
"Really now." He smirked.
"Yup." She smirked before walking off. He watched as she went out onto the dance floor still feeling uncomfortable about her being around so many guys in what she was wearing. He didn't trust anyone being around her, not with the way she looked. She was slim and the clothes she was wearing showed off all her curves and he didn't like all those guys touching her.
