Author: I do not own Inuyasha.
Sango: You do not. Correct.
Author: Oh crap not you again...
The DJ blasted the music loudly in the dark club the only real lights that were there, were the ones over the bar so people could get drinks, and the disco ball that had different color lights shining threw out the room. Colors from purple, to blue, yellow, to orange then red, green, Kagome cleared her mind as she lost her self in dancing her body not missing a beat.
Sango was panting. "Kagome I'm thristy. Can we take a break?" She asked rubbing her throat with her hand staring at her still zoned out dancing best friend.
"KAGOME!" The younger girl snapped out of her trans. "Uh what, oh yes?" She had stopped moving staring at Sango confused. "Whats up?"
"I'm thristy," she yelled over the music. "Oh okay!" Kagome grabbed her hand as they made their way threw the croud and headed to the bar stand. Each sitting in a chair. Kagome smiled hearing the familiar voice of a wolf demon. "Hey Kagome, Sango." Kouga nodded at them. "What can I get you?"
Sango thought for a moment. "Bud light?" It sounded more like a question than an answer. "Okay then. Kagome?" As soon as his eyes met hers he couldn't help but smile. It was nice to see her out. She blushed seeing him smile. "Umm just water." Kouga rolled his eyes. "Of course."
"Hey now, you know I'm not much of a drinker." She tryed defending herself. Sango chuckled. "Be right back." Kouga walked off to get them what they had ordered.
Kagomes eyes looked Kouga up and down as he walked away, "I had forgotten he worked here..."
She couldn't help but look at the some what tight tan pants, and white shirt he was wearing. He pulled them off so nicely. She sighed staring at him. He was cute she would give him that. "Here you go." Kagome blinked as the childhood friend handed them their drinks. "Thanks." Kagome sipped her drink watching Sango start downing hers faster then she had ever seen. "So Kagome, I haven't seen you here in a long ass time. What brings you here?" Kouga asked eye'ing her closely.
"I wanted to get out and have some fun. Is that a bad thing?" She stared at him waiting for an answer. "Nope not at all." He replied.
"Ohhh! Kouga are you hitting on these cute girls?" A woman with long blond hair hazel eyes clung to his arm suddenly. Kagomes eyes looked her over top to bottom. She was wearing a tan dress that clung to her body nicely, however it looked a bit to tight, and showed way to much clevage for Kagomes taste. "Their friends of mine Shelly."
"Oh! Nice to meet you." She smiled at them. Meet them? Stupid little... Kagome got up and walked away without even looking back. That bitch knew her, and she knew she did. Or was she really that stupid?
Sango looked at Kouga and the girl. Kouga pushed the girl off his arm. "Get back to work before I have my dad fire you." The girls hazel eyes got big and she rushed taking orders and talking to people again. She knew better then to piss off the son of the man (her boss let me mind you) that owned the popular club.
Sango shook her head. "You know, she wouldn't have gotten mad if she didn't still love you." The green eye'd girl sighed resting her head on her hand.
Kouga sighed. "I know... She won't ever admit through. I fucked up. I was weak for one moment, High out of my mind. I fucked up everything. I lost the only one I will ever love."
The green eye'd girls gaze was locked on him. "You honestly still care for her that much still? Even after three years? Even with her being with someone else?" She watched him carefully.
Kouga nodded. "How could I not? Shes perfect. Caring, sweet...To bad shes with a complete asshole." The demon wanted to punch something, he wanted to get rid of his anger somehow, some way. "Kouga." His blue orbs meet her green orbs. "Don't give up on her. I think shes slowly coming around now."
Kouga stared blankly at her. Sango smiled. "Shes here isn't she? Does that not prove to you that shes getting sick of his bulls shit?"
The wolf demon smiled at her and chuckled lightly. "Yeah I guess so. I never have or will give up on her." He looked over at Kagome lost in her dancing. "Never."
Sango smiled, "Glad to hear."
Kagome was walking back to sit by Sango who was talking to some guy with black hair who was wearing a purple shirt and black jeans. She figured she shouldn't butt in. So she stood there hearing the music slow down into a couple song. She sighed. This was not the music she was here for. At. All.
"May I have this dance?" Kagome turned seeing Kouga. "Don't you got a slut to get back to?" She snapped at him. She herself had no idea why she was so mad. Kouga was just a friend now he could be with whoever he wanted. Why did she care so much?
He sighed his blue eyes staring into her icey blue eyes, eyes that he use to see happiness and so much life in that had now dulled and lost what looked like a lot of hope. But he knew not all. She still had hope. He just had to show her how good life could be.
"Well?" He held out his hand. She rolled her eyes putting her hand in his letting him pull her close. "Listen," he said quietly to her, "I don't like her one bit, I'm not even with her. Please it was the past we were young... You know I've gotten better Kagome I aint going down that road again." They danced in circles staring into each others eyes and holding each other close, her arms around his neck, his around her waist.
"I know..." She mummbled.
Kouga put on his cocky smirk, and raised an eyebrow. "Besides why does it matter to you who I'm seeing?" He asked waiting to see her reaction.
The miko glared at him. "It don't! I don't care one bit!" She started pulling away, but that only made Kouga hold on to her tighter.
"What the fuck are you doing here?" A rude male voice snapped at the dancing couple pulling them apart. "Inu-Inuyasha!" Kagome stared at him in shock. "What..What are you doing here?"
He glared at her, "I asked you first damnit. I told you I don't want you here damnit! You stupid girl!" He grabbed her wrist and threw her to the ground. By this time everyone in the club was staring at them. Kouga grabbed Inuyasha punching him in the face and pushing him away from the girl laying on the floor staring at them in fear. "Get away from her you damn mutt! How dare you do that to her!"
"Stay out of this you damn wolf!" Inuyasha spat at him. Kouga glared getting ready for the fight. That is until Sango walked over kicking Inuyasha in the stomach, sending him flying into a wall. She stomped over slapping him. "HOW DARE YOU EVEN THINK ABOUT HURTING HER!" Inuyasha stumbled trying to get away. Sango had come from a long line of demon slayers and she still trained to this day to be a great demon slayer. Even if they weren't needed much anymore.
"S-Sango. Let him go..." Sango glared at the half breed as he darted out the doors. Kouga leaned down helping the shaking girl up. "Shelly, close this place up. I'm taking Kagome home." He picked Kagome up bride style and started walking out. Before he went out the door he looked at Sango. She smiled, "I'll drive myself home...I'm staying a little while longer. Take care of her." He nodded at her and walked out to his car putting her in the front seat, then shutting the door and getting into the drivers seat.
He looked at her. "Kagome. Are you okay?" She looked at him still shaking. "Oh Kouga..." Tears started running down her cheeks. He frowned and reached over wiping them away. "How about we go for a walk in the woods?" She stared at him as if he was insane. "I'm in heels."
He thought fora moment. "Alright, then why don't we go to our willow tree?" Kagome looked at him and smiled slightly. "I love that idea."
Kagome took off her shoes and left them in Kougas car as they walked side by side in the soft grass to the willow by the lake. Kagomes eyes shifted to Kougas hand. Suddenly she found herself reaching her hand over and holding on to his. Once his hand took hold of hers too she blushed and felt like her brain went blank for a moment as her heart pounded. Why was that? She quickly got a hold of herself. She couldn't feel like that about Kouga. Not anymore...
Kouga smiled ready to start jumping like a little school girl screaming for joy, all because she was holding his hand. When they reached the willow Kagome, and the wolf demon sat side by side staring out at the lake.
"Kagome, did he hurt you badly?" Kouga asked worried about her.
"No Kouga. I'm fine...I shouldn't have went there. I knew better. I still went..." He held up his hand cutting her off.
"You have a damn right to have fun Kagome."
She stared at him sadly and sighed. "Yeah I know." She looked up at the stars. She stiffened for a moment feeling Kougas arm wrap around her then she slowly loosened up and layed her head on his shoulder. "Kouga..." She whispered softly.
"Yes, dear?" He answered back without even thinking about the words he was using. "I'm gonna dump him... I can't take this stupid relationship anymore. God I hate men sometimes. I should just go lesbain. Start chasing after Sango maybe I'll have some luck there." Kagome joked laughing as she said it.
Kouga looked at her wide eye'd. "Oh great, Now I gotta try to beat girls? I should just give up!" He laughed jokingly along with her, however stopped when he realized she was staring at him confused. "What?"
She shook her head. "Nothing Kouga." She yawned closing her eyes laying her head back on his shoulder. "Oh no you don't missy..." He picked her up throwing her into the cold lake.
"KOUGAAAA! I'm gonna kill you!" She glared at him on land as she shivered in the cold water. "Awww fine! Only...after a swim okay?" Kouga jumped in right next to her splashing water into her face. "Ahhh! Kougaa! grr!" She started splashing water into his face. He chuckled splashing her right back before tackling her into the water.
"Oh for heavens sake Kouga." She giggled. "Trying to freeze me?" She joked.
Kouga shrugged. "Maybe." He smirked picking her up bride style and carried her to the grass setting her down. "Your damn lucky its warm out. Or I would freeze to death." She pointed a finger at him. "You naughty wolf."
Kouga acted as if he were ashamed by his actions. Which only caused Kagome to laugh more. Once she caught her breath she smiled at him. "Thanks Kouga."
The wolf demon looked at her confused out of his mind. What had he done?
Kagome sighed seeing the confusion in his eyes. "You... stepped in to help me back there. And you made me smile. So thank you."
The wolf smiled walking over and sitting next to her wrapping an arm around her shoulder. "Anytime Kagome."
The miko walked into her room changing into pj's and sitting on her bed sighing. "What a night..." She mubbled to herself. She pulled her books over to her studing spanish, and math. The first two finals she had coming up after the coming week. "God I'm never gonna pass spanish! How could I? Ugh!" She shut the book and pushed it away.
Kagome looked around the room. Then Sango poped into her head. She figured she should text her in the morning to ask how everything had gone with the man.
She jumped as her phone vibrated. She looked at the text. "Ginta? What would he want?" She clicked the text and started reading.
-Hey Kagome heard you and Kouga had a great night.
Kagome texted back.
-What do you mean?
She waited for a secound or two before she got her next text from him.
-You know he likes you right?
Oh great. Ginta was at it again. Making Kagome feel like shit for being around Kouga. He did it once before when her and Kouga got close, but she was with Inuyasha and refused the leave him. Ginta had almost ruined their friendship... And made Kagome tired of even looking at Kouga.
-Fuck off now before you fuck up our friendship again.
He texted back faster than she thought he would.
-Its not my fualt your with a stupid asshole.
She groaned. Instead of fighting with him like normal, She called Kouga.
Ring, Ring, Ring.
"Hello? Kagome? Everything okay?"
"Hey Kouga everything is fine only, tell Ginta to leave me alone okay? Hes gonna piss me off."
She heard his breath catch even threw the phone. She knew he would most likely tell Ginta off. That brought her some joy atleast.
"Okay Kagome. Good night."
"Goodnight Kouga."
She closed her phone and cleared all text messages and calls from it. She sighed realizing she was running out of things to distract her from him. She fell to her side on her bed hugging a pillow to her. "Inuyasha..."
'I wonder whats gonna happen now...' The miko sighed shaking her head, then letting her eyes fall closed slipping into a sleep full of nightmares that had been awaiting her.
She sat up in her bed breathing heavy. Nightmares tormented her all night, and the only one that woke her up was the one where she was pushed off a cliff.
Her icey blue orbs scanned the room as the sunshined into the room. "Wonderful daylight...so wonderful." She smiled knowing her mother would be down stairs and she wouldn't be alone with her pain.
She got up fast pulling on blue jeans over her panties and a white shirt over her white bra brushing her hair and getting everything else ready then she headed down stairs putting a smile on her face.
Once her eyes found her mother she smiled more "Morning mo-" She stopped in her sentence seeing how her mother looked. She was sitting at the side of the kitchen table crying. "Mom!" She darted to her and put a hand on her shoulder. "Mom whats wrong?" She asked concerned.
Her mother lifted her head from her hands to stare at her daughter. "Your grandfather has ...cancer..."
Kagomes world stopped. No, He couldn't! "Wh-what, how do you know?" She stared down at her mother in shock backing away a bit. "Kagome...I just got a call from the hosptail. We had to take him to it last night cause I was worried. Oh Kagome!" She broke down crying again.
Kagome wanted to run and hide. To break down crying, but she couldn't her mother needed her. Suddenly she saw Souta apear from the side of her mother crying too. Kagome wrapped her arms around both as they cryed on her shoulders.
Walking down the street Kagome found herself at Sango's front door. She sighed and knocked putting on her best smile and happy face. Even if it didn't truely reach her eyes anymore. She waited a few moments before it opened. "Kagome! hey!" Sango smiled at her friend stepping a side and welcoming her in her home.
"Hey Sango." Kagome smiled at her and walked inside sitting on her couch. "Aren't you usally training your miko powers right now with your grandfather? Least he thinks hes training his." She laughed a bit before she saw how depressed Kagome had gotten. "What happened?" She walked over sitting next to her best friend.
"My grandfather...Has cancer. We found out this morning. They don't know if its spread to far to were its to late... Or what." Kagome held herself together she didn't wanna break down. She had done great not breaking down yet.
"Oh Kagome I'm so sorry!" She threw her arms around her friend. "Its fine, I'm fine. I'm trying to stay positive. Grandpas strong." Sango nodded. "Secound time its happened in our family..."
Sango frowned remembering Kagomes dad who had died when she was only 7 from cancer. However Kagome felt different than everyone else. Not fully happy not fully sad. She felt safer. For her father had abused her, beat her everyday whenever he got pissed. Don't matter what went wrong, it was always Kagomes fualt in that mans mind some how.
After he was gone she was smiling more. She had more pride was happier. With a great guy. Until that all went down hill and Inuyasha rolled around breaking her worse than ever.
Both girls sighed, then kagome pulled away. "So! Who was that man last night?" Sango blushed at the question. "I-I don't know what your talking about."
"Oh please Sango were you really that drunk? Spill girl!" She smiled as she saw Sango's face turn a deep red. "His name was Miroku...He goes to our school. I don't know how we've never seen him before. I mean really? Come on! Our school! This is our last year and I've never seen him."
Kagome thought for a moment. How was that possible? They had been in that school for four years. How had neither of them not seen him before?
"And? What happen with you guys last night Sango!"
Sango glared at the floor. "He grabbed my fucking ass Kagome. So I told him to fuck off and stormed out." Sango sighed. "Why do men have to be such, such ughhh! Jerks! Idiots!" Kagome broke out laughing at her friend. Sango stared confused a bit at the girl before she too broke out laughing.
Once they both stopped laughing Sango smiled and looked evily at Kagome. The miko looked scared. "What? Stop that... your freaking me out Sango!"
The demon slayer tackled her. "What happen with you and Kouga? Huhh?" Kagome blushed and pushed her friend off. "Nothing we just hung out went to our willow..."
"Your willow! Ohhh!" Sango giggled. Causing Kagome to blush more. "Shut up." She mummbled.
Sango stopped and stared at her, as Kagome tensed up. "Kagome...your phone."
She nodded. They both knew who it was by the ringtone "Forever and Always" by Taylor Swift. She sighed opening it and answering, "Hello."
"Hey babe. Tonight Keades just us okay? Meet me at 7." A males voice said threw the phone. Kagome held back her sigh.
"The fast food place?"
"No shit stupid."
"Alright...Bye Inuyasha."
"Goodbye Kagome."
Kagome shut her phone and looked at Sango. "Me and Inuyasha have a date tonight. I'm gonna dump him." Sango stared at her in shock. She saw it coming, but thought Kagome would take a bit more of a push to do it. "Good for you! You don't need that ass." Sango smiled and hugged her best friend. Kagome layed her head on Sango's shoulder and hugged back.
Alright well...The dad thing I felt fit well. So I added it. (Ever wonder why Kagome didn't have a dad?) Anyway R&R please!
