Chapter 26
The 'Kouga Incident' happened almost two weeks ago. Thankfully, he was out of town. As much of a dick that guy is, he really does know when enough is enough. I just feel bad for the next girl he goes out with.
The downside to this whole thing is that Kagome has completely ignored me. She won't even glance my way. I've tried to get Sango to tell me what's up with her but even she doesn't know, and those two are always together. At least I've realized that you can go crazy in only a short period of two weeks, because not seeing her smile everyday is driving me to the nuthouse.
"So you and Kagome are no more, huh?"
Rae asked me one lunch as we were sitting in our spot.
"Dude, they never were anything."
Miroku gave me a sympathetic smile and bumped my arm.
"She's just a girl, man. There's plenty of others out there."
But I only want Kagome.
I didn't say that. They would've mistaken my affections towards her for something more serious. Everyone knows that InuYasha Kamaki does not fall in love. Only problem is, is that I'm starting to doubt that theory myself.
"Too bad. She's a hottie."
"So, uh…"
Hachi hadn't been saying anything for a bit but he finally spoke up.
"Does this mean someone else could hook up with her?"
I shrugged my shoulders and closed my eyes, leaning my head back against a locker.
"I don't know. It's her life so I guess so."
"So could someone like…oh, I don't know, one of us hook up with her?"
I opened my eyes and gave him a look.
"Are you trying to say something Hachi? Is there someone you have in mind?"
My voice dripped in sarcasm. I knew who he was talking about.
"It's just that…like, she's really hot."
He rolled his eyes up for emphasis.
"And I've been checking her out since day one."
I didn't say anything. The rest of the guys were silent as well.
"So, you don't mind, right?"
I looked at him again, except with a cold glare. He looked down at his fumbling hands.
"I was just wondering."
"Give it a rest man."
Miroku shook his head and patted me shoulder. My life sucks.
"Uh oh…"
Everyone looked at Itsuki the minute the words came out of his mouth. He was staring down the hall so we all looked down there as well.
I should have never looked.
Walking down the hall was Kagome and Hojo. With their hands intertwined in eachother. And she was smiling. She was happy holding Hojo's hand.
"I guess Kagome is really off limits now."
Hachi commented, but I didn't even have the strength to tear my eyes from them and give him a good whack in the head.
