A Lovely Mix Up
Chapter 5: It's Like Flying
Disclaimer: Don't own Inuyasha.
Recap
"Yes."
"Really?"
Kagome groaned and nodded her head.
Inuyasha smiled lovingly and wrapped his arms around her petite form.
"You don't know how happy that makes me." He whispered as he buried his face into her hair once again.
Kagome wrapped her arms around his neck and sighed.
'I know this against every rule in my book. But he doesn't really care about me like this. In a couple weeks he'll be back to being just another face in a sea of faces. Listening to his music and all that. So in the mean time I'll use him to make Hojo notice me'
She squeezed her eyes tight at the thought.
'God I am such a bad person.'
NowIt was just another Monday in the Higurashi household. All was silent and not even a bird was chirping. All was peaceful until . . .
DING DOOOOOOONNNNNNNNGGGGG!
"Gah!" Kagome fell from her bed and landed on her carpeted floor with a thump.
She sat up slowly and rubbed her aching head and looking at her clock.
In big red numbers it blinked 6:00.
'What a weird dream. I dreamt that Inuyasha Taisho asked me out and I said yes. Pfft! Like that'd ever happen.'
Kagome groaned and walked down the stairs sluggishly to open the door.
'Who the heck gets up this early?'
She reached the end of the stairs and yawned sleepily.
She cracked one eye open to see her mom already opening the door and she had a large smile plastered on her face.
"Hello . . . you must be Mrs. Higurashi, correct?" came a voice from the doorstep.
"Yes, how may I help you young man?" The older women said joyfully.
"I am here to pick up my girlfriend."
Kagome gasped now wide-awake.
She dashed to the door throwing it open all the way, while startling the people behind it.
Yes it was Inuyasha.
He looked at her a little surprised, but happy nonetheless to see her.
He was carrying a black helmet under his right arm and had a black jean backpack draped over his left shoulder.
"Ah! Higurashi!" he said happily.
Kagome's mother stared at her daughter a little frightened at first. To know that her daughter was dating a punk and that she had appeared so suddenly.
The look quickly was replaced with joy as she whispered under her breath.
"Yay! I'll finally have grandchildren."
Kagome glared at her mother and shooed her away from their discussion.
"So uh- Taisho-kun . . . what brings you here so early."
He smiled and tapped his helmet.
"Can't a guy take his girlfriend out for something to eat?" he asked grinning.
Kagome blushed and fiddled with her t-shirt top.
"Uh- um actually I was planning to head over to the library this morning."
Inuyasha's smile dropped slightly at this.
"That's okay I'll come along."
"Well- it might take awhile-"
"No problem. I'm patient."
Kagome sighed and nodded.
"All right let me get ready."
Inuyasha smiled and gave her a one armed hug.
"I'll be waiting."
Kagome threw on her uniform, brushed her hair and teeth, and ran back down the stairs and she and Inuyasha were out of there by 6:15.
"So . . . how come you go to the library every day?" asked Inuyasha as they headed down the staircase.
"Well . . . I like to read." Kagome lied.
'I can't tell him that I go to see Hojo.'
"Hmm. Yeah I see you in class all the time reading."
Inuyasha grinned as they finally reached the sidewalk in front of the Higurashi Shrine.
Kagome gasped at what she saw sitting over on the curb.
It was sleek black motorcycle. The seat was a dark crimson red with a couple rips here and there. The paint was starting to ware a little, now looking like a lighter dark gray color. Also there was a small crack on the edge of the front light that looked to have been tried to be fixed with duct tape.
Kagome's eye twitched as Inuyasha handed her the helmet that he had been holding under his arm.
"Is that thing even ride able." Kagome asked skeptically, as she placed that helmet on her head.
Inuyasha chuckled as he put one foot over the bike.
"Aww come on. I've ridden this baby all my life. She's never quit on me before." He explained as he patted the empty part of the seat behind him.
Kagome looked at him once again like he was crazy, before she shrugged and hopped on.
"Well if you're sure . . ."
She grabbed his shoulders and squeezed her eyes shut.
He revved the motor and it skidded back on the gravel a bit, before shooting off.
Kagome screamed and wrapped her arms around his waist for dear life.
He chuckled again as they shot around the corner at a, what she knew, way over the speed limit rate.
"Heh. Sorry forgot to warn you about the take off. I get a little to ahead of myself sometimes."
They slowed down to a stoplight and Inuyasha put his foot to the ground to keep the bike up.
Kagome peered out from behind Inuyasha's head and sighed.
"Finally we've slowed down." She said as she let go of his waist.
Inuyasha grinned and revved the engine as the light turned green.
"Not, yet."
Kagome gasped and wrapped her arms around him once more.
After the initial shock it wasn't so bad.
Actually it was almost like flying.
Kagome looked around her as all different colors of blobs blurred around her.
She was cut off from her daydreaming by a long strand of silver hair flying in front of her face.
She looked at it for a second before sticking it back behind his ear.
He glanced back at her for a second, before a blush appeared on his face and he turned back around mumbling a "Sorry."
Kagome watched the blush start to slowly fade away from his face, only to be replaced by a strong determined look as he pushed the motorcycle faster.
Kagome giggled at the seriousness on his face, then a little more, before she was outright laughing.
She loosened her grip around Inuyasha's waist, and tightened her legs around the body of the bike.
She slowly spread her arms out wide and there she was.
Flying.
She laughed again out of happiness and began flapping her arms up and down.
"Ha Ha! Look I'm flying!"
Inuyasha smirked as he pushed the bike farther, farther, until he came to a screeching halt.
Kagome was still in he flying position, except now she was frowning.
"Aww. Ride is over?" she asked sadly.
Inuyasha smiled and lifted her off of the seat.
"Yup, sorry."
Kagome sighed as he placed her back on the ground up right.
Kagome removed the helmet and blew a strand of hair out of her face.
Inuyasha put out the kickstand and grabbed the helmet from her hands.
Kagome clapped her hands together and smiled.
"Wow! That was so much fun! I can't wait to do it again!" she said happily.
Inuyasha just looked at her with a no expression on his face.
"What?"
He reached out a hand tucked a lock of hair behind her ear. Inuyasha just stared at her for a couple more seconds before shaking his head and walking away.
"Nothing, Higurasi-san. Now lets get to the library before school starts."
Kagome looked at him questionably, before shrugging and tagging along.
"Alright. I'll lead the way!" Kagome grinned and ran on ahead.
Inuyasha looked surprised before smirking and following after her.
Kagome's laugh soon went quiet as she thought about why she was here.
'I'm only here to get Hojo to notice me. Nothing else . . . so why am I laughing like this with him?'
Alrighty! A little InuKagness for my fans! I really liked this chapter. It was a good length and I think I used pretty good description!
