finally got a couple chapters done not much to say about this one except i kno it's bad. disclaimers
After dropping Miroku and Sango off at their houses, he drove to Kagome's house. "Kagome, I know you're pretty freaked out. Hell, I'm a little freaked out. But try not to think about it."
"Inuyasha, he's trying to kill us!" she said. "Kagome, don't you-" "Yes, I know it sounds crazy," she cut him off, "but how else do you describe your and Sango's cuts?" "We were drunk." he said harshly. "None of us remember the entirety of last night. Anything could've happened." "Okay, what's in the woods that can cut you like that?"
Inuyasha sighed. "I've gotta get home. I'll come back as soon as I can." he kissed her, and she got out of the car. They said goodbye, and Kagome walked through her front door.
They must be asleep. Kagome though, referring to her mom and Sota. She walked up to her room. She plopped down on her bed, suddenly feeling tired. But she was scared to sleep. She was afraid 'Freddy' would come after her again. To keep herself awake, she got up and started pacing, trying to figure out…anything.
Freddy Krueger.
The name popped into her head. Freddy Krueger? she thought. Is that who's been attacking us in our dreams? But why? And why did he say he's back? Was he ever here to begin with?
Kagome was pulled out of her thoughts by a gentle knocking on her door. She opened it to find her mom standing in the doorway. "I thought I heard you come in." she said with a smile. "How was your night out?"
"Good." Kagome half-lied. "That's good." her mother said, her smile never fading. "Could you come downstairs real quick?" "Uh, sure." Kagome said, confused.
Her mother led her downstairs, then to the kitchen, where a huge cake and beautifully wrapped box waited on her. "Happy birthday, Kagome." her mom said. Kagome just gasped. "I know it's a little early to show you your cake, but I figured if I didn't show you, you'd find it on your own."
"You…made that?" she asked, still amazed at how much time the cake must've taken. "Of course." her mother replied. "Go ahead and open your present."
Kagome grabbed the box and tore the wrapping paper off to find a box. She opened the box and pulled out the most beautiful dress she'd ever seen. It was dark purple, bearing an uncanny resemblance to the color of Inuyasha's eyes. The thin shoulder straps crisscrossed in the back, making an 'X.' She held it in front of her-it went a little past her knees and looked like it would fit perfectly.
"What do you think?" her mother asked. "Do you like it?" "It's…it's…" Kagome tried, "It's beautiful! I love it!" She set the dress on the table and hugged her mom. "Thank you!" she cried out. Her mom smiled. "I'm glad you like it."
After thanking her mom a few more times, Kagome took a shower. When she returned to her room, she had more texts than she'd care to read. They were all from various people from school, all of them wishing her a happy birthday. None were from Inuyasha, though.
Calm down, he didn't forget. she thought. He reminded you yesterday, remember? She started pacing again, more out of boredom than fear of sleeping. When she stopped, she looked at her clock-noon. Already?
She went downstairs to see her mother watching T.V. Sota must've been at his friend Shippo's house. That place was like a second home to him, anyway.
"Mom, have you ever heard the name Freddy Krueger?" Her mom tensed, then relaxed. It happened so quick, Kagome had almost missed it. "No, I don't think I have." her mother answered. "Why do you ask?" "No reason." Kagome lied. She knows something…
Suddenly, Kagome's phone rang. She looked down and saw Inuyasha's name on the screen. She ran up to her room and answered. "Hello?"
"Step outside for a minute." he ordered. "What, you're my boss now?" she asked. "Just come outside for a minute, damn it!" "Okay, okay, calm down. Jeez." she said before hanging up.
She went outside, but didn't see anything. She looked around, but Inuyasha wasn't anywhere in sight. She turned around and saw Inuyasha land from her roof right in front of her, shouting, "Surprise!"
She fell back in surprise, but Inuyasha caught her. "Careful, clumsy." he told her. "Wouldn't want you to hurt yourself." "Don't do that!" she yelled at him. "Don't you know how dangerous it is to be jumping off roofs?"
"Calm down. Don't you know that I'm a lot more dangerous than a roof?" he said. "What's that got to do with you killing yourself?" "Well, since I'm more dangerous than a roof, that means a roof can't kill me. Law of the jungle." he explained. "It won't be the roof that kills you. It'll be the sidewalk." she retorted.
"You'll completely forget what we're arguing about when you realize why I'm here." he said cockily. "Why are you here, then?" she asked. Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "Don't tell me you forgot your own birthday."
"No I didn't, actually." Kagome said in a matter-of-fact tone. "Even if I did, my mom would've reminded me with her gift." "Oh, yeah? What gift?" he asked, genuinely curious. "Come inside and I'll show you."
Kagome dragged Inuyasha inside where he was greeted by her mother. After exchanging pleasantries, Kagome dragged him into her room and showed him the dress. She held it in front of herself. "What do ya think?" she asked. "Hmm, I don't know…put it on." Slightly hurt, Kagome put the dress on, not minding stripping down in front of Inuyasha. When she was done, he stared at her with wide eyes.
"So?" she asked. "It looks…sexy." he said. She blushed and he added, "It'll look great on you tonight." "What's tonight?" Kagome asked. He laughed to himself. "You'll see." "Inuyasha!" she whined. "Tell me!" "Nope." Inuyasha said with a smile. "You'll have to be patient." "Inuyasha, please?" "Nope."
Kagome eventually gave up and changed back into her regular clothes. "So, now what?" she asked. Inuyasha looked at her, confused. "Come on Inuyasha, I'm bored. Let's go do something." "Alright, keep your pants on." he said. "Actually, you look good without 'em. Take 'em back off." She blushed again. "I only showed you because I thought you could be mature about it." Inuyasha beamed and said, "You thought wrong, birthday girl.
"Let's go." He grabbed her hand and followed her back outside. They started walking, but to where, they didn't care. "Oh, shit!" Inuyasha suddenly yelled. "What?" Kagome asked, worried. "Did you finish that History homework?" "Oooooh, guess who's gonna be in trooouuuble." Kagome said. "Kagome, please! If I fail this quarter, my dad's gonna kill me! He's still pissed about last quarter! Please, Kagome, save my life?" He actually had a pleading look in his eyes. She giggled and told him, "Okay, but only because you said the magic word." "You're so fucking awesome, Kagome."
"I know." she said with a grin. He kissed her, hard. When he let her go, she said, "Ow, careful." He muttered an apology, then realized that they were across the street from his house. "Come on." he said, pulling her across the street. She followed him, not caring why he wanted to go home so badly for the first time ever.
They walked in, but didn't get much further than that, as Sesshomaru blocked their way. "Move, chump." Inuyasha said, trying to push him aside. Sesshomaru caught his hand and flipped Inuyasha over his shoulder, almost taking Kagome with him.
"Watch your attitude." Sesshomaru told him, bumping Kagome's shoulder hard as he walked outside. "That son of a bitch." Inuyasha muttered as he got back up. Kagome tried asking if he was okay, but he walked after Sesshomaru.
"Hey, punk!" Inuyasha called after his half-brother. Sesshomaru stopped, but didn't turn around. "You can hurt me all you want, but that was just low." "You're throwing a fit over me throwing you to the ground?" Sesshomaru asked, turning around. "What will you do about it?"
"I'm not talking about that." Inuyasha said. "Hitting Kagome like that as you walk away! Get your ass back on this porch and apologize to her!" Sesshomaru walked back up to where the two were waiting, Kagome telling Inuyasha that it was nothing.
Out of nowhere, Sesshomaru grabbed Inuyasha by the throat and lifted him off the ground. Kagome gasped. "Inuyasha! Sesshomaru, let go of him, please!" "This is the last time I'll tell you this: watch your God damn attitude." He dropped Inuyasha, who fell to the ground coughing. "Kagome." Sesshomaru said. She looked at him. "I didn't purposely run into you." Then he was on his way.
Kagome helped Inuyasha up. "Are you okay?" she asked him. After he nodded, she added, "Why do you two fight so much?" "You wouldn't understand. Just drop it, Kagome."
She listened to him. "So why are we here? Did you suddenly decide you like it at home now?" she asked. Inuyasha snorted. "Hell no. Come with me." He led her to his room, and when they got there, he started rummaging through his closet. "Would it kill you to clean this place up every now and then?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha just snorted again and handed Kagome a black box. "Open it." he said. She did, and inside was the most beautiful necklace she'd ever seen. It was a silver chain with a purple orb attached to it. She looked at Inuyasha, who just smiled and said, "Happy birthday. Sorry it couldn't be better…"
She pulled the necklace out of the box. "It's so pretty." she said, more to herself than to Inuyasha. "So, you like it?" he asked her. She kissed him and whispered, "Almost as much as I like you." He grinned and helped her put it on.
"It's called the Shikon Jewel, or something like that." Inuyasha told her. "Apparently, back in Feudal Japan, it had some kind of power that could make anything that got a hold of it much stronger. Don't worry, though. The legend says it was purified by a powerful priestess, so now it's just a little crystal."
"You didn't have to get me anything." Kagome said. "Just waking up with you made my day." "Like Hell I didn't! It's your birthday, Kagome! Of course I had to get you something!"
I'll let him win this one. Kagome thought. She kissed him again, and they went back on their little stroll through town. "I didn't tell you this, but Sango called me and told me to bring you to her house." Inuyasha said. "Ruin the surprise." Kagome replied as she pushed him playfully.
After what seemed like seconds, the couple arrived at Sango's house. They approached the door, and Inuyasha opened it. "Ladies first." Inuyasha told her in his attempt at a British accent. "Since when were you such a gentleman?" Kagome asked.
They walked in, and the lights suddenly came on with a loud, "SURPRISE!" Kagome jumped back into Inuyasha's arms, erupting laughter from most of the people that were there. Kagome saw a banner that said 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY KAGOME' strung across the room. Under it were Sango, Miroku, Koga, Ayame, Rin, Yuka, Ayumi, Eri, Sota, and Shippo.
"What's this?" Kagome asked, heart still racing. "A surprise party, what else?" Sango said, beaming. Miroku pushed a button on Sango's radio, and The Creep by The Lonely Island played from her many gargantuan speakers.
"Party time!" Sango yelled over the noise, and out of nowhere, a party started up. "I'll be right back." Inuyasha said, and he walked into the kitchen. Everyone surrounded Kagome, wishing her a happy birthday in various ways.
After everyone had their say, Koga walked up to Kagome. "Hey." was the best thing he had to say. "Hey." Kagome said in reply. "Still with that dog of a chump, I see." he declared. "Still single, I see." she fought back. "Just waitin' for you to decide you want a real man. When you do, give me a call."
"That'll be the day." Inuyasha said, appearing behind Koga. "Beer?" he asked, offering Koga a cold one. "What'll be the day?" Koga asked. "Do you want the beer or not?" Inuyasha asked in a calm tone. "Look, if your gonna say somethin' you better be able to back it up, runt." Inuyasha shrugged and opened the can. After taking a couple gulps and sighing, he looked Koga straight in the eye. "You wanna know what I meant? The day when she decides to take a smaller cock than what she's got."
Koga laughed. "You, a little sophomore, think you're packin' more heat than a senior?" "Hell yeah I do! In fact, there's not a doubt in my mind!" "Guys, stop!" Kagome yelled as The Creep ended, and Crazy Train started up.
"Another night then, maybe if we meet up drunk enough." Koga said, walking off. "Inuyasha, you wouldn't really do that, would you?" Kagome asked. "If it would shut him up, I would." he replied. "You're so nasty." she threw in.
"Ah, I feel like an ass." Inuyasha asked, offering Kagome a beer. "Frosty one?" "No, thanks." she answered. "Come on, Kagome!" Sango shouted over the guitar solo. "How many times do you turn seventeen?"
"Guys, it's not even two-thirty yet. Isn't it a little early to even be partying, let alone drinking?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha sighed. "You're right." he admitted before finishing off his beer and letting out a loud belch. "Much better!"
"I agree with Inuyasha." Sango said. "I'll throw you a late party tomorrow night." "Sango, you don't…" Kagome started, but her friend was already gone.
The party went on, mostly alcohol-free, for a few hours before Kagome 'remembered' that she had to be home. "Inuyasha, can you walk me home?" "Of course." he said.
They walked in silence, neither one knowing what to say. When they got to Kagome's house, she asked, "Wanna come in?" Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders and told her sure. They went in and watched random stuff on T.V. for hours. Eventually, Kagome's mom called them and Sota in, and they sung happy birthday to Kagome (much to her dismay) and ate some cake.
Inuyasha and Kagome watched some more T.V. A few hours later, Kagome noticed it was getting late. Already? It feels like it's only been a couple hours. To confirm how late it was, she also realized her mom and Sota had gone to bed.
She got up and stretched. She started towards her room, followed by Inuyasha. When they got there, Kagome locked her door. "It's getting late." she said, looking at her alarm clock, which showed eleven-fifteen. "Your parents won't get mad, will they?"
Inuyasha chuckled. "The awesome thing about having a job is that you can tell your parents that you gotta work late, even on school nights." he said. "Inuyasha, how long ago did you get fired?" Kagome asked. He went deep into thought, and finally said, "I think it was three weeks? Maybe three and a half."
"Your parents haven't noticed yet?" Kagome asked, amazed. "Mom did. She talked to me about it. She's a lot more lenient than Dad. I'm sure he knows by now, though."
"Well, I'm gonna change." Kagome said, grabbing her night clothes. She stripped naked, and when she started putting her pajamas on, Inuyasha stopped her. "The necklace was only half of your present."
Kagome felt the heat rush to her face. "If, you know, you don't have any complaints." Inuyasha quickly added. To answer his question, she took his shirt off for him. With a cocky grin on his face, he pulled a condom out of his pocket before taking off his pants.
"You're sure about this?" Inuyasha asked after they laid on Kagome's bed. She nodded, and they started. "Happy birthday." Inuyasha moaned.
