Chapter 5: the movies

As Inuyasha and Kagome walked to the others two boys joined them. Kagome eyed them and watched them for a few minutes.

"oh my God no way. Tenchi and Kai?" Kagome asked and the two boys grinned. " Oh my god I haven't seen you two since." Pauses and thinks then laughs. "too long."

Tenchi, the more muscular of the two gave Kagome a sly look. "yeah way too long."

"since fifth grade. Back then you were chubby and short." Kai laughed

"yeah well at lest I didn't have big ears." Kagome taunted back and the others all laughed. "so what brings you two back. I thought you went to the States."

"we did, but, uh, we missed it here." Tenchi puts an arm over Yuka's shoulder Kai did the same with Ayumi.

"no way.' Kagome looks back and forth between Yuka and Ayumi just as Erie walks up tailed by Hojo.

"so now that everyone's here what do we want to see?" Yuka asked looking around the group.

Kagome and Inuyasha shrugged, Erie , Hojo, and Ayumi suggested the more romantic movie; Yuka and Kai suggested a action and Tenchi suggested the horror film.

"the horror one sounds interesting but so does the action one." Kagome said. Inuyasha shrugged and eventually they decided. The group then head off into the theater and get their snacks and eventually sat down.

As the movie started Inuyasha and Kagome cuddled; Ayumi and Yuka glowered at Kai and Tenchi who were fighting over the big bucket of pop corn and Hojo and Erie were in the middle of it. Inuyasha and Kagome were oblivious to the others and barely paid attention to the movie. They began talking about Naraku and the plans about afterward.

"I really don't know what I'll do. I can't leave my mom and family here, but I don't want to leave you and the others." Kagome whispered as she stared at the screen.

"I don't really care because I'll be there next to you." Inuyasha said staring at Kagome. "what ever time you choose I will be there."

Kagome smiles and leaned on him. Later she stood up and whispered to him. "be right back." Inuyasha watches her and keeps an ear out towards her. Seeing Kagome leave Hojo took it as a chance to talk to her, though his action didn't go unnoticed. He walked out and wait for Kagome to come out of the restroom.

"Kagome." said Hojo

"yes?" Kagome asked as she paid for a drink.

Hojo hesitated before talking. He told her that he loved her and wanted to go out. Kagome just shook her head and told him she was not interested in him in that way and that she loved Inuyasha and was going to stay with him. Hojo persisted and Kagome told him the same thing. All of this, of course didn't go unheard. Inuyasha was listening intently not moving until Kagome needed him. Hojo clenched his fist and moved and pinned Kagome to the wall and pressed his lips against hers. As soon as their talking stopped and the sound of Kagome hitting the wall Inuyasha had stood up and went to her aid, but no soon had he got there, had Kagome slapped Hojo and yelled at him. Inuyasha then growled loudly at him.

"you ever do that again and I swear to god ill make you regret it."

Hojo then glared at Inuyasha. "who are you to tell Kagome who she can see or talk to."

"I'm not telling her anything nor am I preventing her from talking to anyone. I'm her boyfriend.," face turns a slight pink. " you come near her and attempt that bullshit again and ill rip your damned hands off." walks over to Kagome and asks if she's ok. She nods and they head back into the theater area.

When they walked in the sat in a different spot and when Hojo walked in Inuyasha glared at him and let out a low growl. Kagome's friends and the other boys noticed and asked Hojo what he did and where the red mark came from. Hojo ignored them.

After the movie was over Kagome and Inuyasha where the first to leave the sitting area. When the others came out they decided to go to the park. As they walked to the park, Inuyasha watched Hojo and Kagome held his arm to keep him calm. While they walked Erie and Yuka kept trying to get Hojo to tell them why Kagome and Inuyasha were so quiet and farther back. Hojo though, would not answer.

Half hour later they reached the park and Hojo asked if he could talk to Kagome, much to Inuyasha disliking she agreed. As Hojo lead Kagome away from the group he asked her why she was with Inuyasha and that he seemed like a total dick.

Kagome stuck her nose up in the air and made a face Inuyasha would normally make, "my reasons for being with him are none of your business. I love Inuyasha and there's nothing you can say or do to change my mind."

"but Kagome, he seems like a jerk and I don't even think he's human. How long have you two been going together? You say you love him but does he love you?"

"this is none of you business! You don't know him, and yes he loves me more than anyone could. Yes Inuyasha can be a little harsh but he's doing better. So shut up and stop putting him down. He's with and there's nothing anyone can do or say. As to how long we've been together, " Kagome paused and gave an Inuyasha smirk. "longer than you've been in my life."

"I would be if you'd give me a chance, Kagome. I love you."

"I wouldn't give you the time of day if you were the last boy on earth so tough luck, Hojo. I'm in love with Inuyasha NOT you or anyone else." Kagome said and turned around to leave but was stopped by a firm hand. "let me go."

"If I can't have you then neither can he." Hojo said as he pinned her against a tree and kissed her.

After he broke the kiss Kagome kicked him in the crotch and stormed off cursing him. As she came back she announced she was off to the bathrooms and Inuyasha coward slightly with and slightly scared look, then he turned to Hojo pissed off. "what the hell did you do!?"

"I don't need to tell you." Hojo replied harshly and received a rather loud growl from Inuyasha.

Inuyasha gave him a yeah right look then pinned him roughly to the nearest tree. 'I told you back at the movie that if you laid a god damned hand on her or whatever. I would make you regret it until the day you die. Now what did you do!" Inuyasha by now had Hojo by the collar of his shirt and slammed him against the tree as emphasis for his words. As Hojo attempted to struggle the growls rose from Inuyasha's chest. Scaring the others quit a bit.

Ayumi and Erie had left a few minutes after and met Kagome in the bathroom. They then asked what had happened between her and Hojo. Kagome let out a growl slightly more human than Inuyasha's. She then proceeded to tell them what happened.

Kagome sighed as she walked out and right as she did she was grabbed. The man held her mouth closed and threatened her and the other two. While this was all happening Inuyasha was watching Hojo intently and it was Kai that said something. Tenchi agreed and said that he could barely see the restrooms from here. Minutes later they al heard Ayumi scream as she came running and all but Hojo went running; Inuyasha dashing off ahead of the others, leaving them astonished and dumbfounded. By the time Inuyasha had reached Erie and Kagome the man that hd jumped them had Kagome on the ground, the man had a welt forming on his face. Inuyasha came to the conclusion that Kagome had kicked him.

Inuyasha immediately was enraged and forgetting all about where he was he tackled the man off Kagome, his hat falling off in the process. When Kai and the others arrived Inuyasha had the man by his neck screaming out every threat he could think of. Yuka gasped as she saw Inuyasha's ears flat back against his head as her hit the man and Kagome got up.

"What is he Kagome?" Ayumi asked and the others nodded. Kagome did answer and before she could a police officer walked over just as Inuyasha got up off the man and went over to Kagome.

The officer asked what happened and if anything was wrong. The man had said yes that devil attacked me. Inuyasha looked over and gave him a mean look. "Keh, yeah well that what you get for attempting THAT with Kagome." Inuyasha growled and turned around. He placed his jacket over kagome, despite her still clothed.

"what happened?" The officer asked slightly annoyed.

"that man there tried to rap Kagome here." Ayumi said and Kagome looked down and away. The police man looked at Kagome and Inuyasha and then at the man who was glaring at Inuyasha. He asked if it was true and Kagome didn't answer.

"I'll take that as a yes.* the officer walked over to the man and picked him up and paged his buddies at the station. "I'm sorry it happened. Be more carefull next time."

Hearing this Inuyasha tensed up and turned around, but Kagome stopped him by placing her hands around his arm. She shook her head and leaned against her back. Inuyasha let out a frustrated growling-sigh, but obeyed Kagome They headed back to their spot and then was asked by Tenchi the question that was on all of heir minds: What was Inuyasha really?
