18- Inuyasha's return and Jealous Plots
"Hey," Inuyasha said as he caught up with Kagome who had been walking alone before he came along.
She turned to face him, a little surprised at the sudden voice, but relaxed when she saw who it was, "Oh, hey. What's up?"
"The sky." He replied with a smirk.
"Ok, smart-mouth." Kagome said, smiling. She had not told him about all the abuse she had suffered the day before from very acrimonious football players and fellow schoolmates. She had not even mentioned Koga attacking her after school or Kikyo jumping her out of jealousy for dating Inuyasha. She did not want to put him in a bad mood or get him in to trouble again.
They approached the school, people spilling into the doors, chatting happily. Another day of torture, Kagome thought sullenly. At least Inuyasha is here with me today. "Welcome back."
"Thanks," Came his reply.
They went inside and hung out in homeroom together, just talking about all of the things he missed out on while he had been suspended. "Damn," He cursed, "I can't believe I missed something like that." He commented when Kagome told him about Sotan getting into a fight with another girl.
"Yeah. Plus, you don't have much homework to make up. We did not have hardly any." She informed him. She felt so safe around him-like nothing or no one could harm her. He had always stood up for her in bad times.
"That's good." Inuyasha replied.
Homeroom soon came to an end, however, and they had to go their separate ways. She felt lonely now that Inuyasha had left her, but she went on with class like normal, ignoring the sad and lonely feeling in her gut.
Finally, lunch rolled around and Kagome sat with Sango, who was next to Miroku, Kikyo, Rin, and Shiori. Kikyo glared at Kagome the entire time, her eyes blazing with hatred and jealousy when Inuyasha sat down next to Kagome.
Kagome ignored this, however, and continued to eat and talk with her friends. They discussed their plans for what they were going to do the following weekend-Miroku and Sango were planning on going on a date to the movies, Rin was going to just chill out and hang, and Kagome and Inuyasha had no idea what they were going to do.
After lunch, Kagome kissed Inuyasha on the lips quickly before leaving and heading to class with Sango and Rin. Inuyasha and Miroku left as well, Miroku picking on Inuyasha all the way to their lockers.
That kiss infuriated Kikyo even more and just before she went into class, she consulted with Koga, who had been coming down the hallway. She figured that he hated Kagome as much as she did. And she was right…

Kagome's last class went by really fast, which came as a surprise to her since it hardly ever seemed to come to an end from day to day.
When it did end, however, she bolted out of there and grabbed her belongings and packed up quickly. She only wanted to walk home with Inuyasha, who she would be meeting in a few minutes as she walked down the hall. He was not in her last class because he had to make up some kind of test in another classroom.
She rounded a corner and that is when she saw it: Kikyo was talking to Inuyasha.
She watched them curiously and suspiciously for a moment, not sure if she should interrupt or just wait. Maybe they were conversing about a class project. Who knew?
Suddenly, Kikyo yelled out, "Oh, Inuyasha, I'd love to!" and leaned forward and kissed him full on the lips. Inuyasha's eyes widened, but he did nothing to stop the girl and shove her off of him.
Kagome gasped. She felt her heart slowly breaking as she continued to watch. Tears clouded her vision and almost seemed to immobilize her for she could not move.
How could he? How could he? He really was playing her like Koga had said he was. He was just some worthless player who was looking for hearts to break to make a world record.
But another question tore at her mind: How could she? How could she have been so ignorant as to fall for such a jerk? Why had she let her heart do the commanding instead of her mind?
Her sadness and anger increased to an uncomfortable level, and, before she knew it, she yelled, "Inuyasha, how could you?" Then, she turned and ran away, leaving a storm of tears behind.
Inuyasha finally managed to regain his composure and shove Kikyo off of him and chased after Kagome, shouting, "No! Kagome, it's not what you think! Come back!"
He ran after her outside and saw her retreating form racing down the sidewalk, heading to the sanctuary of her home. He sighed and turned around to find Kikyo there, smiling broadly like she had just won a medal. "What's wrong, baby?" She asked.
"Don't call me your baby." Inuyasha snapped, his voice low and angry. "I'll never be your baby."
Kikyo pouted. Her plan was only halfway working. "Aw," She whined, acting as if she were crying. "You hate me, don't you?"
"As a matter of fact," Inuyasha said, smirking, "I do." Then, he turned and walked away, Kikyo shouting behind him, begging him to stop and give her a chance.
Yeah right, Inuyasha thought, I'm not giving you a chance. Like I would.

Kagome was crushed. She had stopped running and was now simply walking in an attempt to regain her breath. She sniffed pitifully and tried to wipe her tears away with her sweater sleeve. Cold wind gusted through her hair and onto her face, drying the tearstains. She stopped right outside of her house, noticing that her family still was not home.
"Hey, did your boyfriend dump you?"
Kagome spun around and found Koga, his arms crossed, glowering down at her. She merely said, "Go away." She did not care that he was there. The numbness that had encased her heart had spread quickly to her entire body, making her care less about what happened to her.
Koga suddenly lifted his hand and slapped her across the face. "I warned you about him, and did you listen? No! You stupid bitch! You didn't listen and now you have to suffer." He smiled at her. "You finally get what you deserve."
Kagome started crying harder. So hard, in fact, that the wind could not dry her tears fast enough. She was used to him hitting her, so, she was not shocked from his slap. Instead, she was hurt by his harsh words.
"Ok. I deserve to get slapped." She said, not caring if it was true or not. "I'm going in now."
She turned and headed for her front door, surprised that he was actually letting her go for once and not putting up a fight. She went inside and collapsed onto her couch, crying profusely. How could he have done that? All that time, they had been together and having fun, and he had seemed to have been enjoying her company. So, why had he done such a traitorous thing like that?
Time went by as she sat there, not bothering to do her homework, and Inuyasha has called at least three times. Each time he called and said, "Kagome? Listen, I need to talk to you," She would hang up the phone and start sobbing all over again.
He even came over to her house and knocked on her door for half an hour, begging to be let in so he could talk with her face-to-face.
She did not answer, however, and instead, went up to her room and lie on the bed, thinking of his dark betrayal. As she thought, it grew dark outside and late and before she knew it, she had cried herself to sleep…

There you go, guys! Sorry that it was so short. I apologize greatly. And I think that it transitioned too fast. But, please review anyway!
