Songs: The Middle by Demi Lavoto
Punk Love
Chapter 9: Closer
Kagome looked out into the crowded club searching through the flashes of cameras and excited faces of fans for a glimpse of silver ears. He's been on her mind constanly and she was hoping to get just a glimpse of him at this private concert. She did let Miroku slip the invitation to him casually after all now that they have patched up their friendship. She hoped a glimpse would settle her obsession of him at least just a little.
'Just a glimsp. All I need is a glimpse and I'll be okay for a while.'
Kagome listened as the song that she wrote about the hanyou who was haunting her began. A note from Sango's guritar lingered in the air before Rin began her light tapping on the symbols. Ayame then joined in and Kagome finally began to sing.
I knew where I was going when you left the room
you're the kinda guy that makes me want to
follow through to you
I've been trying to leave you for the longest time
The second that I saw you I just knew I found my right guy
I like it (x6)
She liked the rush she got when Inuyasha grabbed her hand. She wasn't going to tell him that just yet but she did admit to herself she liked it.
Kagome grabbed the mikestand firmly as she sang the chorus. You could see the feeling she put into her singing by her facial expression with her mouth opened wide belting out the music and her eyebrows shooting down a bit.
I wanna crash
I wanna fall
I wanna be somewhere in the middle.
Somewhere in the middle
something
It's better than nothing
I just need a little
I just need a little cuz I
Don't wanna be nowhere
But somethings makin' me go there
Somewhere in the middle with you
I like it (x6)
Loosening her grip on the mike Kagome began to sing the next verse softer.
Losing my direction,
That's the way it should be
Feeling a connection
When you're standing next to me
I wanna be rolling
I just wanna be rolling with you.She did miss the way Inuyasha used to talk to her in his soothing voice. She wished she could be with him and get the same tingling that would erupt in the pit of her stomach when he was close to her.
All of the things you say
I like it
Taking me far away
I like it
'Being somewhere in the middle will be okay...for now."
I wanna crash
I wanna fall
I wanna be somewhere in the middle.
Somewhere in the middle
something
It's better than nothing
I just need a little
I just need a little cuz I
Don't wanna be nowhere
But somethings makin' me go there
Somewhere in the middle with you
Kagome took her mike off its stand as she jerked her head sending her hot pink streaked hair forward, sticking to parts of the face that had sweat and to her glossed lips. She walked close to the edge of the stage bending over sometimes with the same expression she got when she put her all in her music.
Just as Kagome was about to start the bridge of her song she spotted Inuyasha's silver hair and ears and turned to sing to him locking their eyes on each other.
Baby you take me
you wanna take me from this crazy ??
Babyyyy
Cuz I just need a little
I just need a little
Somewhere in the middle with you
Kaogme finally forced her gaze from Inuyasha's amber eyes and walked around the stage, jumping around, pumping her fist in the air, and hyping the crowd as she finished up the song.
CRASH
I wanna fall
I wanna be somewhere in the middle.
Somewhere in the middle
something
It's better than nothing
I just need a little
I just need a little cuz I
Don't wanna be nowhere
but somethings making me go there
Somewhere in the middle with you
CRASH
FALL
I like it I like it
somewhere in the middle with you
In the crowd stood a still bewildered hanyou as the curtain fell. Finally comprehending everything that had just happened, he smiled slowly to himself.
'She wants me.'

Inuyasha stared frustrated into the back of Kagome's head the next day.
'What the hell!? She basically said she wants me but she won't even look at me! What's her problem?'
Three rows ahead of Inuyasha the famous star with orange streaked hair, a black shirt with a jack-o-lantern and said 'Trick or treat' and ripped jeans, sat beating herself up.
'Why did I do that!? I basically told him I wanted him back! I do...but that doesn't mean I wanted to tell him that...yet. Somebody must of spiked the punch.'
Turning around to catch a glimpse of Inuyasha, Kagome made eye contact with the hanyou who had on his rare thinking face with his eyebrows pointed down slightly and his face scruched up a bit. His face changed quickly to surprised then to a slight smug smile and Kagome quickly reverted her.
'Damn! He's looking at me!'
'Yes! She looked.'
The bell finally rang and Kagome bolted out of classroom to the bathroom. Once she made it there she hid out in a stall until she was posotive the girls had left she stepped out to examine her arms.
She peeled the orange and black arm warmers to examine th mass of cuts that were hidden under them. She grimanced in disgust as she stared at the pink scars. She pulled out a bottle of cream out of her bookbag so she could put it on her arms so they could heal faster.
"I can't believe I did this to myself again."
"Neither can I."
Kagome jumped at the voice, dropping her case of creme. Kagome slowly turned around to meet the owner of the voice.
"Inuyasha..."
"Kagome how could you do this to yourself...again?" he asked firmly.
"I stopped already...just healing."
"That doesn't explain why you did it in the first place!"
"Because I wanted too!" She yelled angrily and some what hurt. "Bankoutsu had died and I was alone and hurt and I thought maybe it would take away from the pain in my heart."
"But you weren't alone! You had Sango, Rin, Ayame, Kouga, Miroku..."
"But not you!" Kagome had tears streaming down her face now.
"Kagome..."
"This is all your fault Bankoutsu dead! He said I didn't really love him and I should be with you. Your the reason he didn't put up a fight. Its all your fault!"
"Kagome."
"Dammit Inuyasah! Why do I still love you?"
That was all Inuyasha needed to hear before throwing Kaogme into his arms and squeezing her tightly, burrowing his nose in her hair. Kagome stood limply in his arms for a moment before wrapping her arms firmly around his neck. Slowly she lifted her head so she was nose to nose with Inuyasha and they were staring intenly into each other's eyes, inching their lips closer and closer until they were only 2 centimeters apart.
"I missed you Kags."
Inuyasha was about to close the distance when, suddenly a voice interrupted.
"Well, well, well. Look at the emo, skanky, punk girl now."
