Chapter Five: "I Do Still Care For Him, But I Must Move On"
A few days after seeing Sesshomaru the way he was. It didn't stop Sesshomaru kept drinking non-stop, and not working at all. Jaken had reported his behavior to his father. As Sesshomaru's father made his way through his son's home. Yes it looked nice in the entrance hallway, but as soon as you entered his study it smelled like alcohol. Sesshomaru was laying on the floor. It was not him to over do it with any kind of alcohol. Sesshomaru was losing it. "Sesshomaru?.." his father trilled off by saying, but soon stop. Sesshomaru looked up at father. "Go away.. Leave me alone..." he told his father in a snap, but closed his eyes from the painful headache he was having, but it wasn't anything comparted to the pain his heart was feeling.
He didn't like seeing his son like this. He didn't know what drove Sesshomaru to drink like this. He very would have guessed it was Kagome that was causing this. "Sesshomaru, look at yourself! What made you this way? Work? Then What?" His father said in a whisper, you could tell in his voice he was worried for his son.
"Why should it matter to you?" Sesshomaru sneered at his father.
"Because I am your Father.." He said with compassion in his voice. Indeed he did care for both his sons, but Sesshomaru needed him.
"Than be a good father and leave me alone.." Sesshomaru said as he turned over on his side away from his father's view. "Sesshomaru, get up!" his father snarled at him. Sesshomaru's father was growing very annoyed so he grabbed him and pick him up and off the floor. Making sure he could stand on his own. His father looked at him noticing he was wearing the exact some clothing as he did when he talked to him a few weeks ago. "Sesshomaru, how long have you been wearing this?" he asked him.
"A few days after Kagome left me.." he mumbled, but his father heard. "Sesshomaru, I told you to go after her. Not to drink yourself near death!" his father scold him.
"So what! She left she'll never come back, and I don't need her! I'm fine without her!" Sesshomaru yelled, but then fell to the floor, because of the headache he was having. "No your not! Look at you Sesshomaru. Go to her. I'm sure she'll come back if she knows that you care about her... than she come back. Son, trust me she loves you." His father said kneeling down beside him. "I'm weak, and a fool with her. I hate her..and she hates me! So, fuck her, and fuck you!" Sesshomaru snarled out. His father just shock his head and said "I'll see you in three days.. I hope then you get yourself together." His father said walking out of the study.

Meanwhile Kagome was in her room looking for something to wear. At the time she was only wearing sweat pants and a T-shirt. When there was an knock at her door. She opened the door saying "Hey your early!" she said with happiness in her voice. She then blushed when she seen it really was her ex boyfriend's father. Who treated her like a father. He also told her many times to call him "Dad" which she did. "Oh hi.." she said unsure if she should still call him "Dad". "What no big hug. Kagome just because your not seeing my son anymore. Doesn't mean we have to be strangers with one another." he told her. Kagome then held a warm smile and gave him a big hug.
"So, excepting someone?" He asked.
"Umm,.. Yeah.. I am.." she said, in a guilty way.
"I see. Well I just stopped by to see how you are doing. Well I must be going." He said almost leaving, but was then stopped by Kagome asking. "Is Sesshomaru alright?"
"You still care for him don't you?" he asked her seeing it in her eyes. Which were holding tears within them. I do still care for him, but I must move on.." she told him she then added "Is he alright please tell me.." she said letting some tears fall.
"Kagome.." he said trilling off.
"Please..I must know. I-I.." She said, but stopped when her date came up the front steps. "Hojo.." she said trilling off. He then looked at the young man he seemed to be nice. He knew Kagome deserved better than his son, but it was also clear that she still loved him. He couldn't get out the fact it's been a month and half already she was dating.
"Hello Kagome, I hope your feeling well. Who is this?" Hojo asked, her looking at the man beside her. Hojo has been Kagome's friend since 2nd grade and has loved her ever since. He also had meet her recent ex boyfriend before, and this man looked like him, but only older. By maybe twenty years. "This is Inutaisho Takahashi. Sesshomaru's father." She told him a little ashamed, not in him, but in herself.
She was now beyond worried about Sesshomaru, and she felt guilty that she was now dating someone else and it haven't been over two months yet. "Hello Mr. Takahashi" Hojo said holding out his hand waiting for Inutaisho to shake it, but he didn't. He just looked at the boy. He knew him before he's been at Kagome's parties before. At her home when her and Sesshomaru were together. They weren't big just a few friends and some family members. Which he and his wife had been invited to many time even if his son didn't show. That's how Kagome and him became so close.
He knew the young man wanted Kagome. He was no fool, but the fool in this whole mess was his oldest son, Sesshomaru. For not seeing this man wanted Kagome since day one, but did she want him? He'd had to know if she truly still loved Sesshomaru enough to give him another chance. As for this boy Inutaisho had to get rid of him. So, he could speak to Kagome alone.
Kagome looked at the two men. She loved Inutaisho like a father, but she also cared for Hojo, and now Sesshomaru maybe hurt, or in danger. Her heart began to be faster she wanted to pull Inutaisho in and tell Hojo that the date was off, but she couldn't do that, or could she.
"Hojo something came up..can we take a rain check on it?.." she asked.
"But..I" he was about to say, but looked at Inutaisho. He had a look in his eyes that meant "If you don't listen to her. I'm gonna kill you.."
"Yeah. Kagome it be fine. Well see ya.." He said as he was about to kiss her, but she pushed away. He'd never tried to kiss her before so why in-front of Sesshomaru's Father, but Kagome wouldn't let him. It felt wrong she felt like she was betraying Sesshomaru somehow even if they weren't going out anymore. Kagome wasn't to happy about Hojo trying to kiss her. He knew about Sesshomaru and her breaking up. He also knew Kagome didn't want another relationship. Not until she got over him. So they both had agreed that they would first date, but just as friends.
It was now clear to Kagome that Hojo wanted it to be more, and he was just waiting for a perfect moment where he could take her love for Sesshomaru away. True Kagome did have to move on, but why with someone she loved like a brother. She couldn't do it and now something was wrong with Sesshomaru. What could it be?
Hojo looked at her and said "Maybe some other time.." he then walked passed Inutaisho who didn't look all too happy. "Kagome, may we go inside and discuss this?" he asked, she nodded her head and lead him into her kitchen. "Who you like anything?" she asked him. "No thank you.. Kagome he loves you." he told her.
"No.. No he isn't... he never did love me..." she said now in tears.
"Kagome he's in really bad shape.." he told her, his voice sounded worried for his son.
"Is he hurt?" she asked in tears.
"Of a broken heart yes." he told her, seeing her in tears. He came over to her a wrapped her arms around her and said "He needs you."
"No.. He doesn't Inutaisho.. I love him, but I can't keep on going back to him. I can't. Not anymore.." she told him, he then looked very confused.
"Isn't the first time you've left him?" he asked.
"No. Sir.." she said so ashamed, she looked down at the floor.
"Ok. I have to say is two things I'm mad at right now. One you know you can call me father. No more sir.. No matter what you did or didn't tell me." he said, then continued with a smirk and said "Now the second thing is you didn't tell me you left my stupid son twice.."
"Actually.. Sir I mean dad...more like three time. This is my third time. I left.." She told him with a tear.
"What happen the other two times?.." he asked.
"First time.. We where dating for over a year, and he didn't tell me he had a ex-wife that was trying to get back with him. I accused him of cheating on me.. Which surprisingly he wasn't..I know that was dumb to leave and I came back. Then the second time he missed two very important dates.." she told him, very sadly.
"When was the second time?" he asked.
"About five months ago.." she told him, with a tear.
"I knew about the first time, but he just told me you almost left." he told her.
"I guess almost leaving means three days." she said as she sodded.
"Kagome what happened the second time?" he asked her.
"Please don't tell him, but I was..pregnant..before..five months ago.." she sodded again. Inutaisho then held her chin up so she could like him in the eyes. "What happen to the baby?" he asked, Inutaisho felt very angry not so much at Kagome, but mostly at his son.
"I was only a few months pregnant, but with all the stress of him going to work, not speaking to me, and also my mother found out she didn't have long to live. He didn't know. I was worried of what he'd say everything. My mother mostly. Well I lost it with all the stress and worrying.. It killed my baby.. I was going to tell him, but all the stress... it killed my baby. I killed it.. I'm so worthless.." She cried out. He then held her and hugged her so tight and whispered into her ear. " No your not. He is..Did anyone knew?" he asked.
"No.. Only the doctor and me.." she sodded out.
"Did you tell him after?" he asked.
"No.. I didn't think he'd care anyways. I left for about a week, but he didn't know. I don't think he even notice.." she said, with another fit of sobs. He then just held her tighter. For awhile he held her close to him in a father type of way. The girl was hurt before, but she still forgave him. Now it was his turn to go to her, but would he?
"Kagome.. I must know. What is that Hojo boy to you?" he asked her.
"He's just a friend. Father, I know he wants to be more, but I still love him. I know it well be awhile before I can truly love someone. I must get over him.. I still care, but I can't keep going to him. When he doesn't care for me..or even love me.." she said with tears in her eyes. Letting them fall Inutaisho brushed them away and said "Kagome, I'm sure he does... I know he does. Kagome. Don't give up on love." He told her giving her hug and then leaving. Kagome then walked up to her room falling on her bed she looked over at a picture of them. Kagome looking so happing and Sesshomaru having a cold and uncaring look, but there was something in his eyes. Love. She then looked away and began to cry.
