Chapter thirteen: Lean on me
Weeks had passed since she had sang in the recording studio the first time and now they kept asking her back to sing backup for other singers and play guitar for some odd jobs but it was nothing really about her own career. Inuyasha had been getting better and better with the days and now he was starting to walk again and had gotten all of his stitches removed…only one scar was left, a really long one on his perfect chest. Kagome still blamed herself for what happened but Inuyasha always pulled her out of that and made her feel better, they were the cutest…confusing friends ever…?
Inuyasha yawned and watched as Kagome worked on the music to a new song on his father's grand piano. She was so cute and innocent every time she pressed the wrong key and flinched a little at the off key sound and scribbled down the notes on her staff paper like it was gold. He smiled a little and leaned back into the plush white leather chair winching, he was still a bit sore. His wrist cast had been signed by only a few people mainly Kagome who drew little doggies on it…funny Ha ha. Kagome sighed and went through the chords of the verse once and they just seemed to melt together it just sounded peaceful and when she finished Inuyasha flashed a toothy at her and spoke "I like it"
Kagome slid her body around on the polished wood piano bench "really?"
"Yeah sound great you have any words for it yet?" he asked wrapping his un-casted arm around his chest for a second he sometimes got small pains
Kagome looked concerned for a second but thought he would get mad at her concern over something really small he was still stubborn like that "yeah but there not done yet"
"Well give me the first verse" he pushed her
Kagome sighed, she really didn't like to show Inuyasha the unfinished works of her songs but since she was pretty much indebted to him for her whole life well then to hell with it "okay I'll just do a verse and the chorus cause yeah…" she couldn't really form words until she started the song.
The piano was soft save for a few dominant keys she pushed then she opened her mouth…
Sometimes in our lives
We all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's
Always tomorrow
They she started to play the chorus pushing the keys a little harder to bring out the melody
Lean on meWhen you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For
It wont be long
Till I'm gunna need somebody to lean on
She let the last chord end and pulled her fingers off the keys "so?" she smiled nervously
Inuyasha almost wanted to just then jump up and have his way with Kagome but then someone might get hurt, mainly him "I love it!"
Kagome squealed with excitement "well then you have to leave so I can finish it cause I can't do it with you staring at me you freak"
"Fine" he stood up slowly "I'll go at do…something…" he shifted his golden eyes
"Good boy" she smiled and sat back down on the piano bench and waited for him to leave
He had no idea what he was going to do for a whole day since he hadn't been out of Kagome's sight for weeks, maybe he should go down and work at the studio…nah there was a chance Kikyo was there and he didn't want to get pissed today. What about going out and just getting some exercise he hadn't done that since he was bed ridden…nope it hurt to much to even run let alone long distance jogging. What about getting Kagome a gift…yeah he did owe her everything, if she had just left then he would have probably gone back to partying before he was ready and plus Christmas was in only a month, yes it was November and outside the weather was getting colder and colder by the day and the holidays were just around the corner. Inuyasha really only spent the holidays partying and mindless one night stands with girls he didn't know but that Inu was gone and now he was going to start thinking before acting. He called for the car and headed off towards the heart of the city, it was New York City after all and who couldn't find the perfect gift there anyways.
He had been walking around forever searching store after store but he still hadn't seen that gift that would make her fall madly head over heals with him. He had gone to many clothing stores but he didn't know what size Kagome was…like it mattered he loved her just the way she was. He went to jewelry stores after jewelry store but he had already given her the necklace she never took off. Then it hit him he didn't need to buy her something. Inuyasha raced back to the car and told the driver to go to his next destination, now what was he up to.
Kagome signed now that Inuyasha was gone she was all alone in his huge mansion with and unlimited supply of food and so much time to get her song done. She slowly ventured up the stairs and found Inuyasha's room, which was obviously his cause there were clothes all over the floor and a picture of him when he was little and his mother holding him, she had never gotten the whole story of Inuyasha and his mother but if he was going to tell her he would do it on his own time and she wouldn't push him. There was a small fridge beside his bed that Kagome popped open and pulled out a 'Dr. Pepper' and sipped it slowly as she looked around the room. There was a few acoustic guitars that where resting on holders attached to his wall and some other electric guitars along with a flying V in the corner. A pair of drumsticks sat neatly on his floor under some clothes 'he's a drummer too?' she thought as she placed them on his dresser. The room was a mess so Kagome being Kagome had to do something about it so she started picking up the messy, dirty clothes and putting them in a pile outside his door she would wash them later, and yet she still couldn't see the floor after she picked up the clothes because it was littered with scribbled on papers with all sorts of lyrics on them some one them she could tell he was out of it cause his letters were dragging and then flew off the page, she giggled at one with some drawing of a happy face but not really a happy face since it went off the page and onto a different one. After she picked every paper up and sorted the trash with important papers she could actually feel the soft blue area rug and the hardwood flooring that peeked out from the edges. Now to do his laundry…oh this was going to be fun…
After Inuyasha had figured out the perfect gift and gotten most of it done he decided that Kagome had, had enough time to be by herself and he had to go back to see if she was done or not cause the truth was he really wanted to hear the rest of the song, oh and see Kagome too. He walked through the door and heard the loud dryer buzzer go off signaling it was done its job. Inuyasha followed the noises and once he got to the laundry room his heart stopped there was Kagome pulling out a pair of his boxers from the dryer along with some other clothing items "Um Kags" he almost whispered
"Yeah" she didn't even turn to who was talking or even clue in that it was Inuyasha
"Why are you holding my boxers" he tried his hardest again not to just tear her clothes off one by one
Kagome turned to him and hid the boxers behind her back "umm…well…I went to your room…and I-it was all m-messy and so…I just you know cleaned it and then I saw all the clothes and I well…started doing your laundry" she stumbled over her words and turned red with embarrassment
Inuyasha walked up to her and wrapped his hand around her waist pulling her close 'I love when you do my laundry Kags, we can do it over and over and over' although her wanted to say that he pulled the boxers from her soft hands and sniffed them "good job I might hire you as my cleaning lady"
Kagome rolled her eyes "thanks Inu but sniffing that in front of me is kinda awkward" she pointed to the silk boxers in his hand "oh and I didn't know you were a drummer"
Inuyasha looked confused for a second then spoke "Oh, I played snare drum in my high school marching band I just kinda kept those for good memories"
"You played in a marching band?" she almost burst out laughing just thinking of Inuyasha in those funny hats and a bright coloured uniform but she couldn't hold it back for long
Inuyasha watched Kagome laugh, "hey I was good, lead stick in fact, I knew how to work my sticks"
Kagome just laughed harder "you know how bad that sounded?"
"Shut up" he rubbed his boxers in her face "haha who laughing now"
She batted the boxers away "hey don't" but when she backed up she tripped over a hamper of clothes and felt her stitches rip open again since her cut was so deep they had left them on for a few more weeks
Kagome yelped in pain as she hit the ground and held her now staining bandages it hurt felling every stitch pulling away from each other and instantly Inuyasha knew what he had done and picked her up and set her on the warm dryer "hold still okay" he looked up at her and ran a hand through her ebony hair to calm her down. He worked quickly but carefully as he unwrapped the gauze bandage wrap from around her forearm but when he hit the bloody skin she hissed in pain. The stitches had ripped entirely apart leaving her half healed gash bleeding pretty badly Kagome was shaking it hurt so much "Kagome I'm going to call the hospital okay" he made Kagome look into his eyes, it hurt so much she was still shaking
Kagome nodded a little as she held her arm right above the cut.
Inuyasha pulled out his cell and called the doctor that had looked after Kagome since it was his family doctor "hey, look Kagome's stitches reopened…it was my fault…she fell…no I didn't push her…no there's no infection…look they just opened so can you get down here now to get them fixed up she in a lot of pain" he basically yelled into the phone "Fine…yes, okay five minuets" he hung up
Kagome was still shaking and clenching her teeth the pain was so intense it hurt to even think about the wound. Inuyasha pulled a black shirt from the dryer and wrapped it around her arm to try and stop the bleeding "It's okay" he leaned Kagome's head on his should and tried to take her mind off the pain "the doctor will be here soon" he cooed
She couldn't even think all she knew was pain and leaning on Inuyasha "it hurts Inu" her eyes shut tight
"I know Kags" he held her tightly kissing her neck softly to try and take her mind off it but it didn't word much "I'm sorry I shouldn't have done that"
"No it's okay I liked it" she wasn't even thinking about what she said, she didn't mean she like his boxers in her face, not that she minded it but she meant she like her and Inuyasha actually having fun without being mad at each other
"Heh okay Kags" he smiled and heard the door open and close "over here doc!" he yelled
The doctor rushed into the door hauling and oversized bag and pushed Inuyasha out of the way. And even though he had been pushed out of the way he still kept a grip on Kagome's soft hand. He knew when she was in pain when she squeezed his hand tighter and hissed at the doctor but once he was done fixing her up she almost felt as if it never happened due to the massive amount of freezing he put on it. Inuyasha thanked the doctor and let him leave on his own. He stood in front of Kagome who was still seated on top of the dryer and was almost eye level with Inuyasha but was still a little taller "I'm sorry Kagome"
"Don't be it was an accident" she held her arm
"I still am" he looked down at her newly bandaged arm then back up to her flushed face "Kagome I need to tell you something" here it was…he was going to say it even if she denied him "Kagome…I…" just then the door bell went off and Inuyasha having let the maid have the day off went a got the door "Hi I'm from the 'Help children with no feeling in their arms' fund and I was wondering if you would like to make a donation" before the intruder could say anymore Inuyasha slammed the door on his face 'fuck you for messing it all up!!!!' he had just lost his nerve to tell her
"What was it you were going to say?" Kagome watched Inuyasha walk back into the room still sitting on the dryer
"Nothing" he sighed and stood in front of her and then felt Kagome lean her head on his shoulder, she had somebody to lean on she just didn't know that he was in love with her…oh man just wait till Christmas
