Chapter fourteen: Christmas fun!
Kagome wrapped her gifts in the guestroom quietly since Inuyasha was sleeping in the room over and also cause it was one in the morning and if Kagome woke him up she would probably get yelled at and hit with a newspaper like she did to him. Inuyasha had let her escape her "Danger Zone" apartment and stay in the guestroom for till Christmas since she didn't have any other plans other than to call her mother and see if she got the presents she sent them, she did it every year…minus the Inuyasha part. She had gotten the whole family something with her new pay check scratch that…bigger newer pay check, she had even gotten the house maid a gift. Kagome couldn't wait until she got to see Inuyasha's face when he opened her present to him but she had to hide it in her underwear dower so he would stop looking for it under everything in the house. Only two more days, two more till the big holiday; tomorrow was Christmas eve, arrived and Stacy was so kind to give all the temper's a few days off…as if she hadn't missed enough already. New York was beautiful around this time of year; her favorite season of all was winter. Some people saw winter as a dead time but Kagome saw a new beginning to the year a cleaning and it was so romantic to. She would see couples walking through Central Park holding hands and enjoying getting cuddly to warm up a little before they would go home and enjoy and nice fire or something…well that's what she imagined them doing. A small blanket of fresh powered snow had just covered the city and it was still falling day by day. Kagome slipped under the blankets of the guest bed but she still shivered, the skylight to the guestroom had been open for a few days and she didn't know how to close it and she didn't want to look like a stupid girl asking for anyone to help, she was stubborn like that so instead she grabbed her blanket and slowly, quietly stepped into Inuyasha's room "Inu" she whispered
Inuyasha grumbled and turned towards her voice still asleep. She didn't think anything off it and just slid into the bed under her own blanket facing away from his back after all they weren't dating so this was still really, really…really awkward for her at least. Once she was warm and comfy she felt a strong arm pull her and her blankets closer to an even warmer body 'oh god' her mind raced because she knew Inuyasha was probably awake "umm Inu"
Another grumble escaped his firm lips and pulled her even closer till her blankets had fallen away enough so her back was touching his naked chest, thank god she wore a sweater to bed…which after a moment she regretted because it was getting a little hot under the blankets. She quickly removed the sweater and underneath was a crisp white tank top. Kagome was basically moved into the house since she didn't want to leave her most precious stuff in the hell part of town so clothes weren't a problem. After about an hour of watching the snow fall outside Inuyasha's balcony window she decided that she needed to sleep even if she was in the arms of Inuyasha…they were only friends…right?
The morning came quickly and before you could say 'Kagome was in bed with you' Inuyasha had opened his eyes to see that he was hugging a very fluffy blanket that didn't belong on his bed…wasn't it Kagome's blanket? He slipped out of his bed and pulled on a white t-shirt and trudged tiredly down the steps into the kitchen. Kagome had been up for hours she didn't want Inuyasha to wake up and her to be right there cause that would just make a huge mess. Inuyasha groaned and pulled out a bowl and some 'coco-puffs' from the cabinet "good morning sunshine" she greeted as she ate her own bowl
He poured a bowl and sat beside her picking a spoon from beside her and pouring some milk into it "yeah, yeah" he sighed
"Didn't you sleep well?" she asked trying her hardest not to turn red
Inuyasha popped some of the sugary cereal into his mouth and swallowing "yeah but I didn't get to sleep till like two in the morning since I herd someone wrapping gift" he narrowed his eyes on her "I will find my present"
Kagome giggled, "Is that a challenge?"
"No" he replied after shoveling some more food into his mouth "It's a promise"
"Okay…" she finished her bowl and placed it in the sink, he paused for a minuet and then swiftly turned around placing her hands on the edge of the sink behind her "hey…I'm a…going to Central Park tonight, its kind of a tradition of mine…would you like to come with me?" she smiled nervously
Inuyasha looked up from his bowl "umm…yeah sure" he really just wanted to stare at her, she was beautiful in her white tank top and soft pajama pants, messed up wavy hair and light brown eyes…how could he say no?
Kagome smiled and nodded slightly "okay, we leave at eleven tonight oh and bring one present that we are going to open"
He nodded "kay" and went back to his cereal trying to hide his excitement
Only one more day till he got to give her his present and he had worked really hard on it he hoped she loved it enough to get back together with him. Kagome stretched and smiled "I'm going to go have a shower and get something's done today" and by something's she meant wrap the rest of her presents and hide them from Inuyasha and the rest of his family but she also had to call her mother and see how she was doing…what a good daughter
Inuyasha nodded and smiled at her just wishing he could ask if she needed some help with that shower but he knew that would be bad, very bad. Once Kagome disappeared up the stairs Inuyasha quickly finished his bowl and ran down into the finished den/basement to grab a few things before making sure his present was perfect for Kagome.
After her shower Kagome got ready and pulled out her cell phone from her backpack and dialed the number slowly, she knew deep down in her heart that something was not right at all and it was a matter of time till she knew what it was and hopefully this feeling wasn't about her mother or brother. The phone only rang once before it was picked up "Hello?" she called into the phone
"Hello" Sota had answered the phone
"Merry Christmas Eve" she smiled trying to cover up her shaking
There was a pause "yeah merry Christmas eve, hey mom wants to talk to you"
"You sure?" she asked before the phone was handed to her mother
"Kagome" her mother said breathlessly "merry Christmas eve"
"Hi mom, you too, how are you feeling?" she asked hopeful
"You know how this weather dose to me" she coughed muffing the sound with her hand "we got your presents yesterday Sota tried to open his"
Kagome chuckled "Yeah I hope he likes his present but I have to go Inuyasha and I are going out for a while"
"Going out?" her voice sounded a little to happy
"No mom not that 'going out' I mean were going to go somewhere out of the house" Kagome explained having all of her blood rush to her face "but I have to go I'll call you tomorrow, love you mom"
She hung up just after hearing the same goodbyes her mother always gave and slid the phone back into her backpack and started to change she was going to take Inuyasha out because she was pretty sure he had never gone shopping with her and Kagome was the ultimate shopper…well window shopper. She walked into her own bathroom that was attached to her guestroom and turned on the shower. After a long hot shower Kagome got dressed into a pair of jogging pants and a long sleeve shirt she decided after she wrapped her presents she would go and get Inuyasha to go out to get some stuff for her apartment that she needed. The presents were wrapped in minuets before Inuyasha walked into her room "Hey I forgot about it but my dad is having this party thingy and well I cant just leave you here…you…might steal something"
"Hey" she defended " I'm no kleptomaniac"
"Sure that's why my shave gel is gone" he smirked "never mind your legs are to hairy"
Kagome rolled her eyes "whatever, and yes I will go to the party" she looked around her room to make sure no bra's where hanging around anywhere
"Okay were leaving in about an hour or so" he left the room
"WHAT!!" she yelled "I CAN'T GET READY IN AN HOUR!"
Inuyasha laughed and hurried into his room to get his black pants and white button up shirt, it wasn't a very formal party after all. Kagome on the other hand was ripping through her closet and thereafter never finding a dress to where she settled on a black cocktail dress she had never worn –every girl had one of those 'only in case' dresses in the back of their closet. She tried to straighten her wavy hair but it only made the waves clump together…which looked really good actually and after putting some light makeup on and a bracelet and keeping the necklace Inuyasha gave her on she was ready. She walked down the steps where Inuyasha had gone down. He was standing at the bottom of the steps "wow Kags you clean up nice" he smiled
"Your not as dirty either" she joked as she pasted him and picked up her jacket "hey we need to come back here after cause you promised that we would walk through the park"
Inuyasha nodded "yeah" he seemed to be glowing that night
She passed him and he followed her out the door and into the limo that was parked outside. It didn't take long for the snow to start falling again and covering the city with a fresh coat of white snowflakes. Kagome always liked to watch the snowflakes glitter in the light. It was already getting dark by the time they had gotten to the party and she was already getting nervous it was obviously not her scene she would usually waitress at parties, not go to them. Inuyasha stepped out of the limo first and was gentlemen enough to help his 'date' out of the vehicle and past the flashing media that was outside of the doors yelling at the son of the wealthy record label owner "Inuyasha! Inuyasha! Who is your date!?" that's what most of the questions were or "Who is this one Inuyasha!?"
He wanted to punch every one of them out but since he was in the public eye he didn't not to mention Kagome would never take him back. Once they entered the building everything looked like it was from a movie, red carpeting over the large entrance staircase, tables covered by bright white table covers, sparkling silverware and not to mention high class people dressing in high class clothes and there she was standing in just a cocktail dress that had been in her closet for the longest time. Kagome squeezed Inuyasha's hand tighter and stared straight ahead, she didn't need to screw this up "you okay" he whispered into her ear
She nodded and swallowed hard "yeah I'm…I'm fine" which was code for 'get me the hell out of here!'
Inuyasha whisked her onto the dance floor and swayed her to the slow beat of the song "this is better" he smiled to keep her from screaming
"Yeah" she almost whispered
After a few dances, some food, some champagne Inuyasha felt someone tap on his shoulder and behind the dancing couple was Inuyasha's older half brother Sesshomaru and his wife Rin "hey Inuyasha" Rin smiled genuinely
"Hey Rin" he forced a smile and looked down at the nervous midnight haired musician "oh this is Kagome"
"Oh hello Kagome" Rin smiled and shook her hand
Sesshomaru stared at her coldly "Hello" his voice held no emotion "where did you meet this one"
Okay so Inuyasha was on the edge, he and his brother never really liked each other "were not dating" she injected "were just friends"
The older bother gave a look, yes a small look at Kagome "and what do you do?" he asked coldly
"I…umm…I work as a temp" she said quietly
"So a temp, nice one Inuyasha…" Sesshomaru said sarcastically rolling his eyes
Kagome was on the verge of tears, not even two hours into the party and she was already being looked down on by high class people so maybe she wasn't the riches person in the word or in Sesshomaru's case the rudest but she was a good person and she didn't need to take this "Inuyasha I don't feel very well I'm going to go back home okay, nice to meet you Rin and Sesshomaru and merry Christmas" she forced a small smiled and left the three to go into the cold winter.
Inuyasha pushed his brother hard "what the hell was that!?" he stomped away and followed after Kagome into the flashes of the media's cameras.
He called out to her finding her entering the limo that she had called for "Kagome" he slid into the limo after her "Kagome I'm sorry…Sess is a dick"
Kagome sniffed her head turned away for him "It's okay"
"No it's not" he placed his hand on her shoulder "hey its already ten-thirty so how about we go back home, get changed and go to the park"
Kagome nodded and wrapped her jacket around her shoulders tighter. The ride home was silent save for Inuyasha's string of curses after every pothole they hit. He helped her out of the car and followed her up the stairs. Kagome shut her door and hung her head "okay Kagome…pull it together" she shook her head and looked at her closet after tearing her dress off and tossing it across the room. She decided to wear a pair of her signature hip hugging jeans, a white button up dress shirt with a dark brown sweater vest that hugged her curves nicely then a pair of black leather boots that she had bought along with a very expensive Wool jacket…hey a girl could splurge sometime. She walked down the stairs after grabbing Inuyasha's wrapped gift and met him at the bottom. He had only changed into a pair of blue jeans and some running shoes "ready?"
Kagome nodded and smiled "yeah"
The drive to central park was nice since everyone was at home with their families so the roads were almost completely empty save for the occasional businessman trying to get home. Kagome stepped out first this time and before she could even see Inuyasha coming she ran as fast as she could into the park as if she were a five year old again "SNOW" she hurled herself into a pile of fresh powdered snow giggling like crazy.
Inuyasha did the same landing right beside her "I WANT MY GIFT WENCH!!" he yelled up to the sky
She laughed and ran back to the car and grabbed the red wrapped gift and placed it on his chest softly so she didn't hurt him. He sat up and ripped open the present and stared at a shoe box "you got me shoes?" as if he didn't have enough
"Open it and find out" she smiled felling warm in the cold winter night
He looked at the box and flipped the top open and stared a framed picture "my mom sent it out here and though it would be a good surprise"
The picture was taken when they were back on the ranch. Inuyasha was hugging Kagome from behind as she took the horses back into the barn, she was laughing and he was just smiling at her like he was happy that she wouldn't leave his arms, the sun was setting in the background and the clouds above them were an orangey-red colour, it was a beautiful picture and gift for that matter. He looked over at Kagome who was smiling at the picture "I think Sota took it" she said running her fingers over the pink pearl around her neck "he's really warmed up to you"
He chuckled "I don't think so he was about to kill me before I left" he looked back down at the picture and mentally kicked himself in the head for screwing what they had up "thanks Kags" he hugged her tightly "now for your present" he stood up and lead her to a bench "I'll be right back" he smiled and backed away to the car and opened the truck. She couldn't see what he was doing since there was a huge tree in her way but as soon as she herd the strumming of a guitar she knew what he was doing and her heart leaped from her chest. Inuyasha appeared from behind the huge tree, an acoustic guitar slung around his shoulder strumming away to a song she hand ever heard.
You've been alone
You've been afraid
I've been a fool
In so many ways
But I would change my life
If you thought you might try love me
Kagome felt tears form in her eyes as Inuyasha sang the song that he knew explained everything…
So please give me another chance
To write you another song
Take back those things I've done
Cause I'll give you my heart
If you would let me start all over again
I'm not a saint
I'm just a man
Who let heaven and earth in the palm of his hand
But I threw it away
So now I stand here today asking forgiveness
And if you could just
Please give me another chance
To write you another song
Take back those things I've done
Cause I'll give you my heart
If you would let me start all over again
Little girl, you're all I've got
Don't you leave me standing here once again
Cause I'll give you my life yes I would
If you would let me try to love you
His voice was soft yet strong as he strummed to her and through the song he got closer and closer to Kagome till he was right in front of her knelling done in the snow practically begging through his song…
So please give me another chance
To write you another song
And take back those things I've done
Cause I'll give you my heart
If you would let me start all over again
Again oh
oh, oh
You know I love you yeah
Give me one more chance
Kagome felt her tears slide down her cheeks "please, will you?" he asked as her whipped her tears away with his thumb and then just letting his hand rest on her cheek.
She looked into his golden eyes, I hurt to let him in but she had to she loved him "I will Inu" she smiled through her tears.
Inuyasha practically jumped with happiness as she picked Kagome up and twirled her around in a hug "thank you Kagome" he whispered "I love you so much"
"I love you too" she smiled as he lowered her feet onto the ground. This was Inuyasha's new beginning…how long till he screwed this one up?
