Kagome soshite sono Inu Doyatsu izuko Ato Hanyou

Chapter 2 – A Replacement for Family & Shopping

Summary: OOC. AU. When running from school in the rainiest day ever, ever feel like there is something watching you? While running down an ally Kagome meets a glare from a pure white dog, hiding from the rain. T for random foul language

Kagome who looked at the watch on her arm then looked back towards Inuyasha

'So, what do you wanna eat?'

'Can't remember what you like?'

He shrugged and Kagome smiled.

'Stay there!' she said then rushed out of the room.

Your weird you know that?!

He called after her, for a second he thought she didn't hear him.

'Yep!!'

Weirdo.

He heard her laugh.

She came back in ten minutes later a placed something under his nose.

What the fakku is this-?

'No swearing in this house.' She said while glaring at him, he shivered and shut up.

'It's called ramen.' She said.

And that is?

'Noodles, are you thick, or are you colour blind?'

He didn't answer to her, she sighed.

'It's the only easy thing I can make; I don't know why I didn't go to some camp…'

Because they stink…?

She looked at him and after taking some noodles in she said,

'Really?'

He shrugged.

'Wanna try?' She said after a few minutes of silence. He looked at her 'don't worry I've had enough, you want what's left?'

Keh, nannari.

Kagome smiled.

'Stay there, I'll find you a plate or something…'

You really are weird.

She came back in with a bowl, and placed it near him after taking some in. He was eating it like a horse.

'Now who's the weird one?'

Keh!

'Let's see what's on TV…'

TV…?

Her face fell 'you don't know what TV is?'

He shook his head as she stood up with his bowl in her hands.

'Well I'm gonna show you…'

Kagome had enough problems with trying to get him in the right way of the TV; he tried to do it himself, naturally stuffing his paw up again which she playfully hit him over the head. He growled at her, at which she laughed at. They were both now in-grossed in the TV they had no idea what time it was until the phone rang which prompted them both to jump. Kagome turned the TV off and went over to the phone

'Hello?' Kagome said to the phone. Inuyasha was confused

Na-?

She cut him off with a finger to her lips and a soft glare. After a few seconds silence she nodded 'Hai…. Hai… I will… I'm not a kid anymore Mama…'

The fakku?

'…Iie I won't skip school, besides theirs only one week or so left…'

School?

'…Hai… Hai… Mama! I won't do that! I'm not a whore! …'

Nani the hell?

'…That's not funny…. Hai… I'm fine…. Hai I am really….'

That really doesn't sound like you are.

'…How are you? …. That's good… Hey, Mama? …. Can I get a pet? …. Why? …. I don't want a cat since we have Buyo…. I want a dog… Really? You will?! Hai arigato! Sayonara Kaa-san.'

Kagome hung the phone up then looked towards Inuyasha and laughed.

Kagome saw it was nearly 9: 30.

'Can I see how your wound is?'

Go for it, jump for life.

Kagome raised her eyebrow but didn't say anything. She went over to him, and undid the wrapping on his leg to see it has fully healed.

'What the-?'

I heal fast…

'Well I guess that's good for one thing I guess. Listen, I need to go to bed early.'

Why?

'I need to go to bed early because I need to go shopping, I ran out of ramen.'

Shopping?

'Yeah I need to get to sleep early tonight so I can get up early for tomorrow.'

Nannari

'C'mon, you're bunking with me.'

Nani?

Kagome laughed as she headed for the stairs, when she was out of Inuyasha's sight, he sighed and lay down on his front paws.

'C'mon Inuyasha! Hurry up!'

He yelped in surprise. He thought wrong, he thought that she was going to forget he was here altogether and leave him. While she did, whatever she did up stairs.

He bounded for the stairs and found himself in a maze or a corridor…. Two doors on the left one on the right … he sniffed to find her scent, which ironically was the same one he woke up to. He followed it to the second door on the left. The room was not has he pictured it. But still the scent lead him here and the girl was no where to be seen

Kagome?

'Don't worry, I'm in the bathroom!' Here voice called a little muffled from his left for some reason hearing her voice relaxed him. He was starting to get worried, for some reason. He looked to his left and saw a closed door, then tried to hit him self, but didn't do a very good job. What the fakku is wrong with me? What's with her scent?! Why-? This is getting me nowhere. He thought to himself. He lay down again sighing to him self, when he nearly dozed of, he heard the door click and his ears perked up, he yelled at them silently. Kagome came from the room wearing different clothes from what he had seen her in last, he frowned. Humans are weird. He watched her as she went over to her window, close it but left the curtains open she then looked over to Inuyasha who was still laying down with his head on his front paws she frowned at him.

Nani?

'Aren't you gonna get cold? Laying on the floor like that?' Inuyasha shrugged the best he could and Kagome smacked her head silently. She opened the bed covers

'Uchini.'

The dog blinked at her.

Nani?

'Get in and leave some room for me.'

Inuyasha blinked at the girl.

Are you for real?

'Last time I checked.'

He blinked again and got up slowly.

'I want the wall okay?' she asked after he walked over to where she was he shrugged and she got in and went to the wall side. Inuyasha moved away from the bed then ran at it and jumped on it. Kagome smiled then went to sleep. Inuyasha watched her for a while trying to figure out why she was letting him sleep in her bed, with her. He shrugged then lay down while half asleep he quietly said,

Arigato.

…Although she didn't hear him.

--

Kagome woke up to find her back on the cold wall, and no dog. She blinked and got up and looked over to the clock which said 10: 20, the door was open she got out of bed and down the stairs everywhere she looked, she couldn't find him. The back door was open, but she didn't marvel how a dog could open doors...she didn't care. She wanted to know where he went. As she went outside, she realized it was night looking up she saw stars. Kagome shook her head this wasn't time for stargazing.

'Inuyasha?' she called.

….

Nothing.

'Inuyasha?' she called again a little louder. She would have kept calling until she found a hand over her mouth.

'Be quiet already!'

She blinked; she couldn't see who said it because she person was behind her.

'I'm gonna let you go if you promise you won't scream.'

She nodded and the hand that was covering her mouth went away. She turned around and her breath was caught

'Who are you?' she asked the person in front of her.

'Inuyasha.'

'Last time I checked he was a dog…'

'Well it's me.' He said in annoyance while crossing his arms and looking away

'Well you certainly act like him.' Kagome said absentmindedly, but her eyes silently found the necklace.

'What do you mean by that?!' he almost shouted at her. But she fell into giggles.

'What's so funny?'

'Yu-.'

'Nani?'

She coughed then brought her hands to her arms in a cold way.

'Baka,'

'Hey, you're the one who should have told me!'

'Dakara nani? So you could throw me out?'

Kagome frowned confusedly

'What?'

'If I told you, you would have thrown me out.'

Kagome shook her head 'I wouldn't have.'

'Hai you would.'

'Look, you're standing there now I'm not gonna tell you to get out, alright!?'

He looked at her and she looked towards the ground.

'It's your decision whether you go or stay,'

'How is it my decision?'

'Coz I don't care.'

'And why don't you care?

'Because I don't!'

'Why?!'

'I don't know!'

They both looked at each other for a minute.

'Really?' He asked.

Kagome nodded then walked past him.

'Where are you going?'

'Naimen.'

Inuyasha followed her inside.

Inuyasha sat on the floor and every now and then, he'd look at the clock. Kagome who was on a chair noticed.

'Why do you keep looking at the clock?'

'Because so I know when I'm going to go back to being a dog…'

'How long do you have as, uh…'

'As a hanyou?'

She nodded.

'From 10 till 6 you work it out.'

'….Nine hours…'

They both relapsed into silence.

'Does it hurt?'

'Na-?'

'Transforming…. Does it hurt?'

Inuyasha nodded.

'How long have you been doing this? Were you born like this or are you just cursed?'

'Cursed….'

'By who?'

'A miko.'

Kagome fell silent, which Inuyasha noticed.

'Nani?'

'…What did she look like?'

'Uh… Kind of like you, but, a cold face look and way different aura…'

'What if I said I knew a miko?'

'Does she look like that?'

'Well…. I'm talking about me…'

He fell into silence, the clocked ticked more so. And Kagome tried to smile.

'Are you gonna go back to sleep?' They both asked at the same time they both stared at each other. Inuyasha shrugged. Kagome got up, went over to her bedside clock / radio, and turned it on. Then sat back down.

In the rock's shade where rain drizzles
The flowers that are always blooming so small,
Are certainly in pain, right?
Within the rain where their colours grew hazy
There isn't a hand that adores
The light-pink petals.

Inuyasha snorted at the song, and Kagome softly glared at him. Her eyes closed suddenly and would have had a nice landing on the floor if Inuyasha hadn't caught her.

--

Kagome's eyes opened; into white fur. She blinked she had the weirdest dream. In her dream when she woke up there wasn't a dog, instead of a dog there was a human (well close to one), she yawned and stretched the thing was she could hear her radio going…. Her eyes widened in shock – so it wasn't a dream, she sat up and looked at Inuyasha who was sleeping, and she looked at him sadly then looked towards the clock and screamed

Watch it!

'Gomen ne, I just realized the time.'

Kami… What is the time like three pm or something?

'Iie, its eight.'

Then why the hell are you…?

'Need to go shopping, remember?'

Nuh

Kagome groaned then smiled evilly and pushed him off the bed

HEY!

'You snooze ya lose Yasha, now don't follow me unless you want a really bad headache for the rest of the day.'

Huh?

'Gah! I'm going to get dressed!'

Why didn't you just say so?

'Coz that takes effort!' Kagome said while closing the door, she could hear Inuyasha laugh silently.

--

Kagome groaned seeing the sign with a dog on it with a line going through it. She led him to a dark side and crouched down next to him

'Ya see that sign?'

Inuyasha nodded, confusedly.

'It means I can't take you inside.'

He growled.

'Just stay here and make sure no one sees you.'

Why?

'Coz I don't have a collar for you, they'll think you're a stray.'

Inuyasha stiffened.

'Yeah, I'll be back in awhile, depending on the people in there.' Inuyasha nearly whimpered as she went inside. He felt like the whole world came onto him as he lay down on his front paws with a pout on his face.

He watched that door every time a person came out his head and ears perked up hoping it was Kagome. Only it wasn't. It had been over an hour, and inside his head, his mind was going over the worst possible things that could possibly happen to a girl who was alone. He shivered.

Hour later that smell hit him and his ears perked up he looked over towards the door as Kagome came out and she went over to him, he growled

Took your frickin' time didn't ya!?

'Oh hush, all the shops I went to didn't have ramen, the shop that actually did have it was crowded.'

Inuyasha snorted, she rolled her eyes

'C'mon lets go.'

--

Kagome sighed as she lay down on the lounge. Inuyasha looked at her and he realized she was asleep and he was tempted to wake her up, but didn't. He laid his head between his front paws and stared at her. Haven't been with the girl long enough, he didn't know her routine, hell he didn't know who she was. All he knew was that she was a miko, which was bad on his part? Considering he had, been turned into a dog by one? But that was long ago, she couldn't have been alive then. But...he didn't know her age, so she could very well have been. Let alone the fact that she looked a lot like the miko who cursed him, he could see many differences like:

1. The one that cursed him had a stale, cold expression, which Kagome didn't have.

2. Kagome didn't care what he was, the one who cursed him did. Which confused him greatly, why didn't she care? He thought all people cared about it. The girl just confused him.

As he watched her, he realized they were totally different he didn't know either of them well but he was sure the one that cursed him wouldn't sleep in front of him like he was a regular dog. Why he kept his gaze on her, he didn't know. Why he watched her like some weirdo...maybe he was waiting for her to do something? Like in the morning he was awake he was waiting for her voice to say "get out", but it never came, she just pushed him off the bed in a friendly matter then got dressed – yep she confused him.

His ears perked up at her groaning in her sleep, turning over while muttering a "no" she slept on. Inuyasha blinked. Nightmare, he thought. Sighing he looked towards the clock which said six he looked at it puzzlingly time flew past when you're watching someone sleep, he got up and stretched then looked around for a blanket or something he could cover her with, but having paws proved a problem – no thumbs. He growled inwardly at himself as the girl muttered "no" again in her sleep he looked back over towards her if he had been in hanyou form he would have one eyebrow raised.

By eight thirty, she was still asleep. And Inuyasha was still looking at her after counting how many "no's" she said he got frustrated with her saying "no" and thought about gagging her. She turned towards him and every thought in his mind melted away. He blinked confusedly then shook his head mildly.

He looked towards the clock again which said it was nearly ten – the girl was still out like a light. She must be having one of a good dream to be sleeping this long. He thought but then rethought it as all, the "no's" came back to his head he frowned, but didn't do anything.

Inuyasha felt the fire run through his body as the pain that came with it. He forced himself not to yelp out fearing that he'd wake the girl. Looking at her from a hanyou view was better then a dog's. He quickly decided that she'd be asleep for the entire night. So, without question, but a little hesitation, he gathered her up in his arms, her head lolled towards his chest as he went up the stairs. He placed her in her bed throwing the covers on her, then, sitting down he saw that she snuggled into the covers. He looked away towards the clock, still seeing he had around nine hours left he couldn't be bothered doing anything just staying by the girl was enough.

Kagome felt herself being placed down to what she realized was her bed. She forgot about waking up for a few minutes, and she marvelled how a dog could pick her up. About then, she realized it might have been night. She opened her eyes to see a hanyou formed Inuyasha.

'Inuyasha….?'

He looked towards her and saw she was awake.

'Did I wake you…?'

'Hmm?'

'By picking you up….?'

'Dunno…'

Inuyasha smiled a little smile at her.

'You've been asleep ever since we got home…'

Kagome nodded.

'I hate shops…'

'Then why…?'

'I had to get food, otherwise I wouldn't have gone. I hate how all the people get into one little place…'

'Heh, sounds like you have a fear.'

Kagome nodded 'Hmm… I normally stay home when my mum goes out…'

Inuyasha smiled his little smile again but didn't say anything.

Kagome drifted back of to sleep. Inuyasha looked at her, his hand moved involuntarily and placed some of her hair that crossed her face back behind her ear. She didn't do anything to the transaction he just did although...she probably wouldn't have felt it.

…Although…, she did have to keep herself from smiling...
