WARNING: this chapter is short =-]
Inuyasha wakes up in an unfamiliar room. The walls are plain and white, the lights dimly lit and the television was playing softly. He tries to adjust his eyes to the room, but everything seemed blurry.
'Where the fuck am I!?' he asks himself. He tries to lift himself up from the rock hard bed, but then groans in pain.
"AGH!" he shouts. His body turns limp in the bed. His ears start to twitch when he hears soft murmuring outside of the room.
"Did you hear something?" her heard his mom's voice ask.
"Was that him?" his heart dropped. It was Kagome's voice.
'What is she doing here….what am I doing here?' he looks to his left and right and notices all the machines he's hooked up to. 'Hospital?' he tries to think. The memories take a while to flood into his mind, 'That's right. Me and Sesshomaru were fighting…and I got shot?' his right hand moved up toward his chest and he felt the bandage wrapped tightly around his left pectoral. He put pressure on his wound and cringed when felt the pain. 'Bastard.' he growled to himself.
"I'll check on him." Kagome says as she opens the door. Inuyasha freezes, he doesn't know what to do.
'Should I pretend I'm still knocked out!? Should I talk to her!? What the hell should I do!?' he doesn't do anything he just stares at her when she comes into his view.
"Inuyasha?" her hears her heart beat quicken.
"Ka-Kagome…" he whispers.
She slowly walks toward his bed and sits on the edge, "How are you?" she places her hand on his leg.
"I'm okay…" he can't raise his voice higher then a whisper.
"I was so worried! When I saw you I almost lost it and then when we found Miroku-" she blurted out.
"Miroku!" he leaned forward and pain spread through his body, "Where is he!?" he tried to ignore the pain, but it was too much, he fell back on the bed. "Kagome!" he stretched his hand for hers. She grabbed it with both of hers. "What happened to Miroku?" she could feel his body trembling.
"Miroku was shot, Inuyasha." she began.
'He's got to be alive! I should have helped him! Why was I so selfish!?' he thought.
"He lost a lot of blood, Inuyasha."
"Is he alive Kagome?!" he wanted to know how his best friend was.
Tears streamed down her cheek, "He is." a small smile spread across her face. Inuyasha felt like something lifted off of his chest, he could breathe again.
He let out a sigh of relief, "How is he?"
"He's in pretty bad shape. He is alive, but barely hanging on. Inuyasha, what happened down there?" she looked deep into his eyes.
"I'm not sure. When I got to the place Miroku was on the ground bleeding and Sesshomaru was trying to kill me and that's all I remember….wait I swear you were there, unless I'm going insane."
"I was there."
"Why?"
"I'll tell you some other time. When you're not in the hospital, you're suppose to be resting." she tried to get up and release her hands from his, but he held onto hers.
"Tell me, now."
She sighed and sat back down, "Well the reason I came over to the shop was to keep you from going to the drug deal. It didn't go as planned, but Miroku said everything would be alright. I didn't know he was going to go instead of you, if I knew I wouldn't have let him do it!" tears stung her eyes, "He told me that IF you still went, I should call the cops and tell them where to go."
"How did you know where we were?"
"Miroku told me." Inuyasha let go of her hand. "He's going to make it Inuyasha. I believe he is."
"Go." he said softly.
"What?" she asked not understanding what he said.
"I want you to go! Get out of here!" she tried to touch his arm, but he flinched from her touch.
"No…I know you're hurting right now, but-"
"No. I don't want you to be here. I don't want anything to do with you Kagome."
Her heart dropped. She got up from the bed and starred at him. "I don't understand…I thought…you said you-"
"It was all for a bet, Kagome."
"A bet to what? Make me love you?" she backed up against one of the walls.
"To get in your pants. To have sex with you! Do I have to spell it out!?"
"But…I….wh…." she stuttered.
"Everything between you and me has been a lie. Nothing was real, you don't mean anything to me. I was suppose to have sex with you, but I had to go and do the drug deal. I couldn't waste time."
'So I'm a waste of time.' she thought to herself.
The room door opened and all of Inuyasha's friends burst it.
"Inuyasha!" each of them shouted at him.
"We were so worried about you!" Kagome heard Abi say.
"A bet." she said under her breath and everyone slowly turned and faced toward her. "Did Inuyasha really make a bet about having sex with me?" she noticed the shocked expression across Abi's face.
Kikyo, who was leaning against another wall, answered, "Yes."
Kagome felt her world collapse. "Well I hope you enjoyed everything, Inuyasha." she walked out of the room.
"Ohhh nooo." Naraku said, trying to be funny. Everyone laughed except Inuyasha.
'I'm sorry Kagome.' he thought to himself as he saw the girl he cared for more then himself walk out of the room. The people he cared about got hurt, he decided he'd rather push them away then have them near.
"Do you want to see Miroku?" Abi asked when the rest of the gang went down to the cafeteria.
"Can I?" he tired to pull himself up.
"Ugh let me help you." Abi wrapped his arm around her shoulders and slid him onto a wheelchair that was waiting on the side of the bed.
"Thanks." he covered himself up with the small hospital gown as best he could. She strolled him out of the room and went toward the elevator.
"What floor is he on?" he asked.
"He's in critical care, so I'm guessing on the floor right above us." the elevator finally opened and they got in. Abi was right about Miroku being on the floor above them, but he wasn't allowed to have visitors.
"I need to see him." he told her.
"I know. I'll get you in, just give me a second." she left his wheel chair by the receptionist desk. 5 minutes passed and Abi finally came back.
"Whoa." his eyes widened and a smile spread across his face. "Hello nurse Abi."
She laughed and shook her head, "It's a disguise you idiot." she pushed his wheelchair around the hallways until they saw Miroku's name on one of the clipboards. "Here we go." she opened the door and wheeled Inuyasha in.
The image of Miroku laying on the hospital bed, connected to tens and thousands of tubes was burned into Inuyasha's head. He smelt tears coming from Abi, but he didn't say anything. Without him telling her, Abi pushed him next to the bed. She grabbed Miroku's cold hand and kissed his forehead.
"Come on, Miroku." she sobbed, "You got to wake up."
Inuyasha stayed silent.
"I'll be outside." she left the room.
"Miroku…" Inuyasha whispered. He listened to the machines making noises. He heard the door open, "Abi-" he started, but when he saw who it was his eyes widened. "Sango?"
She was carrying a bouquet of flowers in her arms, "Inuyasha? Hey." she said
"What are you doing…wait how did you get in here?" he asked with a confused look.
"Oh, I saw Abi and she snuck me in."
"How did you know Miroku was in the hospital?"
"Kagome told me."
Her name pierced his heart, "Oh. Did she already see him?" he figured Kagome didn't tell Sango about what happened….yet.
"Yeah she told me she did. But she didn't say you were in the hospital too." she paused, "Did something happene between you two?"
He forced a small smiled, "Let her tell you."
"Oh, okay." she placed the flowers on a small shelf next to Miroku's bed. She grabbed a chair and pulled it up next to the bed.
"Well, I'll leave you two alone. If anything changes please tell me." he told her his room number.
"Bye Inuyasha, take care."
He rolled himself out of the room and saw Abi flirting with a young doctor.
"AHEM!" he coughed really loud.
"Huh?" she looked around and saw her friend in the hallway, "Well Dr. Lee I'll see you later." she winked and walked away.
"Who the hell was that?" Inuyasha asked when they were by the elevators.
"Dr. Lee. He's kind of cute, no?"
He rolled his eyes and his friend as she chatted on.
Kagome, on the other hand, was at home in her room. Her door opened and she immediately snapped.
"GET OUT OF MY ROOM!" she flew her pillow at her door, thinking it was her mom or brother.
"Kagome?" a soft voice said.
"Sango?" she got up from her bed and ran to her best friend. Sango hugged her and let her cry. They eventually made it back to the bed by the time Kagome was done crying.
"Do you want to talk about it?" she asked.
Kagome sniffed, "Sure. If you want to listen to my sob story."
"Shut up and just tell me."
She told her best friend the whole story, about what happened at the drug deal and what Inuyasha said.
"Are you serious?! Are you sure he wasn't lying??"
"I'm sure. I asked his friends, and they told me it was true."
"Wait…did you guys do IT?"
Kagome blushed, "No we didn't! ALMOST, but he didn't…I mean we didn't do it."
"That's a relief. But I just don't get it. He seemed to be in love with you that night at the club and at school…"
"It doesn't make sense to me either." she sighed, "but what's done is done." she lay on her bed and closed her eyes.
A couple weeks later, when all the rumors finally died down, Kagome noticed Inuyasha still wasn't at school.
'I don't get it. Miroku's back, where is he?' she thought, she wanted to talk to him to fix everything. On her way to class she notices Abi starring at her. Abi motions for her to go in the bathroom. She walks into the girls bathroom and Abi follows.
"Hey Kagome." she says calmly.
"Hey Abi, what's up?" her hands start to shake.
"So I'm guessing you noticed Inuyasha hasn't been to school in a while, right?"
"Mhhm." she nodded her head.
"Well…." she pauses, "He doesn't go to this school anymore…or any school."
"What he…he left?"
"Yeah. Him and his family moved out to some other city." she shrugged. "I just thought I should let you know. I know you really liked him, even though he was a major jackass."
Kagome smiled a weak smile. "Thanks Abi."
Abi put her hand on her shoulder, "You're going to be okay." with that she left the bathroom and Kagome was left alone.
'Great.' she thought to herself and slid to the floor.
