Chapter 9: The Truth Will Set You Free…?
"WHERE DID ALL THESE COME FROM!" shouted a tall slender girl as she looked into three VERY large boxes
Her attractive roommate walked out of her room with sleepy eyes, "What's with all the yelling Sango?"
Sango looked at her pajama clad friend and pointed to the boxes sitting innocently on their kitchen table, "Uh…I think you should take a look at this Kagome" Sango commented
Kagome looked skeptical but proceeded towards the large boxes and when she looked down…she fainted…
In the boy's building…
"Inuyasha! I'll be in the hallway!" called Miroku to a half-sleeping hanyou
Miroku smiled when Inuyasha grumbled something along the lines of not caring where he went, but he knew the hanyou was a bit protective over him since that time in kindergarten when Miroku didn't have any good guarding skills and was left in the care of a 3 month older Inuyasha and got lost…the hanyou child went crazy looking for him and when he did find him (which he was mysteriously found to be near the little girls room…) , he told the young monk-in-training to never go anywhere without telling him or he'll rip him to pieces…ok well, to most children it would terrify them if a hanyou told them that, but the young Miroku knew that was the little hanyou's way of expressing his worry and care for him
As the childhood memory wore off from Miroku mind, he opened the door…
Now normally, this wouldn't have disturbed the young hanyou at all…but this time, when his friend opened the door, the sounds of excited teenaged boys filled his sensitive ears…which would also not normally wake him up…but what did wake him up was when he heard…
"Kagome is the hottest thing!"
"Did you see the pictures of her?"
"Dude! Those pictures of what happened yesterday are awesome!"
"Yeah! I got fifty of them!"
"You did? Isn't that a little too much?"
"…fine, I'll go return them…not…"
"What was that?"
"Nothing!"
"Dude, did you check out Kagome Higurashi!"
"Yeah, I couldn't stop looking at those nice-AH!"
"Do you want that to be your last sentence" said Inuyasha threateningly into the boy's ear as he held his claws dangerously close to his defenseless Adam's apple
The boy gulped and felt a bead of sweat fall from his forehead
"Inuyasha!" exclaimed a certain monk and slapped his friend in the back…a bit hard
Inuyasha, not ready for the 'friendly' smack on the back, lost hold of the boy and the boy ran like crazy…
Well, he peed his pants, and THEN he ran away…while still …peeing his pants…
Inuyasha turned to Miroku with one of his eyebrows raised
Miroku rolled at the silent question and put his hand on the hanyou's shoulder, "Inuyasha, as always, you are the last to find out about ANYTHING"
"Hey!"
"But, do not fret for you have a friend who will fill you in about all the recent news in our lovely boarding school" Miroku looked at Inuyasha after making his little speech
Inuyasha, in short…looked bored, "I'm not impressed by the fancy wording if that's what you want" he said to the monk, raising one of his eyebrows yet again
Miroku sighed, "As always, straight to point (sigh) fine, as you know about the event that happened yesterday…I'm sure you're well aware" Miroku gave him a knowing look and Inuyasha averted his eyes away from the monk
"Anyway, her gorgeously looking- (Inuyasha growled and gave him a stare promising death) – uh, umm…I mean…there were many pictures taken of the uh…victim…and well, she is once again the talk of the whole school and even more popular, more liked, and more wanted" explained Miroku to Inuyasha who was (for once) listening to him attentively
"When did all those pictures get out?" asked Inuyasha
"This morning, they were printed and hundreds of copies were made, she's all over the internet, all over the media, TV, everywhere actually" answered Miroku as they made their way back to their dorm
Inuyasha thought this over, "Wow…I wasn't expecting this at all…"
Miroku shrugged his shoulders, "I saw it coming…come to think of it…I should have warned you huh?"
Inuyasha glared at and suddenly Miroku was up against the wall
"Hey!"
"You knew this would happen! And you didn't warn me!"
"I thought you knew! It was only logical!"
Inuyasha growled and let him go
Miroku ran up to him and patted him on the back, "Hey with any luck, she might not know yet" said Miroku not too encouragingly
"Yeah…hope so…" said Inuyasha as they entered their dormitory
5 minutes later…
"Hey! How did you get me in here!" yelled a certain monk from within his dorm
"You were following me!" countered a silver-haired hanyou
"Do you know how much I was getting paid for these pic – "
"YOU LITTLE BASTARD!"
"Now, now, Inuyasha, it's not what I meant…you see…heh…"
"You have about ten seconds before meeting your creator" said the hanyou in a threatening tone
"Ok…heh…I can explain…heh…AHHH!"
The boys in the hallway moved out of the path of the running monk and his chaser…a boiling angry hanyou…
In the girl's dorm
"Ka…Kag…KAGOME!"
The said Kagome opened her eyes to a worry looking Sango
"How long was I out for?"
"Uh…about… 3 minutes I think…" said Sango as she put her finger on her chin in a thoughtful way
Kagome glared at her, "3 MINUTES!"
"Yep…I was sooo worried"
"Why…it was only 3 minutes?"
"Yeah I know…it's just I got hungry…and it's your turn to cook today…so I was worried about food…"
Kagome shook her head in disbelief and stood up, "Sometimes I wonder why I'm your friend" she commented as she went back to look at the large boxes once again
"Wow…this is so much…I never got this much before…" she said as she saw all the mail in the boxes
Sango walked over and started to take out some of the contents, "Wow…you have mail…pictures…perfume…gifts…and…chocolate!"
Sango gave Kagome a pleading look. Kagome rolled her eyes and nodded her head…the demon exterminator went off skipping to her room with the box of chocolates in her arms
Kagome, again, shook her head and started to take out things herself, "My god…am I that desirable?"
She asked herself as she held up a very expensive looking necklace with a little tag that read, 'Please Go Out With Me, and I'll Treat You Like A Precious Jewel'
"Hey Inuyasha, what's the matter?" asked Miroku while the boys were having their lunch
Inuyasha didn't take his eyes off of a gloom-looking miko while he replied to his friend, "Look at her Miroku… it's been a few days since that stupid prank and she looks horrible…"
"Actually, she's looking quite beautiful"
BONK
"She gets mobbed everyday by photographers, gets asked for autographs, and all that shit…"
"Isn't that a good thing?" said Miroku who was rubbing the bump that was on his head
"Man, she cant even study right…even the shitty teachers are asking for her autographs…all she wants is to study and learn…why do think she temporarily retired…"
"You've been listening to Kagome and Sango's conversations huh?"
BONK
"Maybe…anyway that's not the point…the point is that I screwed that up for her…she's even stopped insulting me…she doesn't even give me a dirty look or anything!"
"Ok, stop hitting me and if you feel so bad, do something about it…umm…I'll be right back, there's a very pretty girl over there who seems to need my assistance" said the perverted monk as he walked to the lunch line
'Mmm…do something…but what…?" thought Inuyasha as he held onto a crying Miroku by the collar of his shirt
"Listen Kagome I got to go to a club meeting, I'll meet you at the dorm later" said Sango as she walked off to her meeting
"Alright Sango! See you later!" called Kagome, but when she looked in front of her…,
"Oh no…" was the only thing she could've said as she saw a large crowd of people, or better yet…her fans…
Kagome turned and ran; she looked back to see the crowd gaining up on her and she ran faster, she made a sharp right turn and was suddenly pulled into the bushes
"Wh-"Kagome couldn't speak due to the fact that her mouth was covered by someone's hand
After she and the anonymous figure saw the crowd pass by, the figure removed the hand from her mouth
Kagome immediately turned, ready with her miko powers when she surprisingly saw that the figure was…
"Inuyasha?"
"Uh…heh…funny meeting you here huh?"
"You pulled me in…"
"Oh…yeah, well, I saw you running from that crowd so I just decided to help out…you know considering the helpless miko you are and all…" he added immediately trying to cover up
Kagome looked at him skeptically but shrugged it off, "Well…thanks anyway, I got to go now…" she said getting up from the ground
'Do something…'
Kagome gasped when she was suddenly staring into those amber orbs that she secretly loved and being held by his rough yet gentle hands
"Kagome…I…I…"
"You what…?" she asked him, trying to clear the fact that he was so close… that she was right up against him…that she could smell his unique scent…that his lips were oh so close…
"I…I can't help it anymore" he confessed
For a moment she thought that he would kiss her like in the movies…and secretly wished it…but, alas…this was not a movie…
Instead the hanyou let go of one of her arms and confessed
His confession was not of love like in the movies…it was another…involving a kind of incident that took place a few days ago…
Her reaction was not of tears of joy like in the movies…it was of shock, crushed, anger, sadness
And she did not confess her love, hug him, and then kiss him with passionate joy like in the movies…no…she instead confessed her hate and pain, ripped herself away from his hold, and instead of a kiss involving lips, her kiss to him involved her hand meeting his cheek…
