Inuyasha made it to his room to only find his brother there holding a rope and gag. "Now, we can do this the hard way," Eri said, holding up the rope and gag, "or the easy way." Eri wiped the rope out beside him and Naraku showed up behind Inuyasha, blocking the door and wearing an evil grin on his face, just as Eri was now.
"OH MY GOD! Hell no, you fuckers!" Inuyasha yelled at them. He walked to his window, but was only caught by the lasso of the rope. "Shit," he cursed. "Leave me alone. I didn't do anything to you, Eri." He glared at his brother.
"Oh, but you did, Inuyasha," Eri replied. "You made a move at my dear, Kagome. And I can't let you get away with it." He gave Inuyasha a serious look and seemed determined to get him back. For what, he didn't know. But he was sure that he was gonna find out pretty damn soon.
"Ok, I'm sorry I messed with her. Just leave me alone," he said, somewhat apologizing to him. He didn't really want to stop messing with her. She seemed special, like his missing piece. He needed her, but he had no idea why.
"Fine, but," Eri started, "if you get any closer to her, well like that of course, your balls are Naraku's. Got it?" Eri had a serious look plastered on his face and Naraku had a grin spreading across his face.
Inuyasha shuddered with disgust. "Fine, fine. Just leave already," he promised.
And with that they left, only to have Naraku kiss Inuyasha on the cheek before leaving. "Disgusting," Inuyasha murmured to himself. He locked his door as soon as they left and turned up some music.
His room was red and black. His favorite colors. His bed had black Egyptian cotton 100 thread count sheets and pillow cases. His comforter was straight black. His walls were black with the occasional red flung in. He had words written everywhere in red and pictures painted in red. It looked like blood, but at a closer glance it wasn't. He liked the way his room was, even though his father did disapprove of it. And that was all the more reason to keep it like this. He had blood red plush carpet on the floor and his door was the same color red. Every part of his room was covered in color, either black or red. But there was a small part above the frame on his bed that wasn't one of these colors. It was a painting of a white puppy with a light blue background to it. It was signed Mommy. His mother had painted it for him when they moved in here.
He never painted over it because it was the only thing he had that he cherished of his mothers. None of her clothes, but the painting she drew for him. It was him, but as a puppy. He loved it just as much as he loved his mother. And since she was gone now, he talked to it as if it were her. It was the only thing that helped him when he was mad.
"Mom, I met a girl today at school," he started off. "Her name is Kagome. She's really pretty and nice, like you. She reminds me a lot of you, she really does." He sniffled a bit and a tear fell down his cheek. "I miss you. Why did you leave me with these people?" he cried out to her.
Because I love you, dear. Your father loves you, don't ever think otherwise. He heard the voice that seemed to speak to him. It sounded just like her, so he listened to it. This Kagome girl, I'll watch over her for you. Make sure nothing happens to her. She is yours and keep her safe. She'll need you as much as you'll need her. And with that the voice left.
He didn't quite understand what she meant, but he was going to take her advice. He had to, it was his mother. He smiled to himself and turned on some music. He had rock, metal, rock/pop mixes, and many others. He cranked up some Green Day and listened to that for a while.
His ears soon picked up the sound of music and singing. Kagome was singing again and he smiled to himself. He turned his music off and heard her singing to Michael Buble's "Home." It was so soft and sad.
"Another sunny day has come and gone away in Paris or Rome, but I wanna go home," she hummed a bit and it sounded so great to his ears. "Surrounded by a million people I still feel alone. I just wanna go home. Oh, I miss you, you know?" She paused a second a let the music play, then continued," And I've been keeping all the letters that I wrote to you, each one a line or two, 'I'm fine baby, how are you?' Well, I would send them but I know that it's just not enough. My words were cold and flat and you deserve more than that."
Inuyasha listened as she sang. It went straight down and he knew that she was lying there facing her ceiling and singing possibly to some one she couldn't see, her father.
"Another aero plane, another sunny place. I'm lucky I know, but I wanna go home. Mhmm, I've got to go home. Let me go home, I'm just too far from where you are. I wanna come home." She paused and the music played some more, soft and sweet. "And I feel just like I'm living some one else's life," she stopped and the voice with the CD kept playing and she cried there. He knew better than to go over there and try to comfort her, but it was so tempting to help her.
Yes, he agreed with most of what was being sung. He did feel like he was living someone else's life. It must hurt to feel like that. Michael's voice seemed to continue to sing as Kagome soon fell asleep to the music. He heard that song play over and over, until her mother came in and turned it off.
"It's been a hard day," he heard her mother say to her. Then, her footsteps leaving and the door shutting. He walked out to his balcony and could faintly see her form on the bed, curled up in a ball and sleeping.
He smiled to himself and went back and fell asleep himself. Tomorrow may be Saturday, but he wasn't let that stop him from having any fun. He had to get some sleep for his early practices.
Sleep soon took over him and he was dreaming of nothing but Kagome. He smiled as he thought of Kagome meeting his mother. His mother really would approve of her, she said so herself. The only picture left in his mind the rest of his evening was Kagome and his mother.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Kagome cried as she sang. Her father loved this song and she sang it every night before she went to sleep, just for him. Her mother didn't like it and Kagome fell asleep to it all the time. Her mother would come in and turn it off.
She slept all through the night, knowing now that Inuyasha's room was right there across from hers. She giggled at the thought, but still slept on. She was enjoying her day and the kisses he gave her seemed like a welcome to the neighborhood type gift, ya know?
Kagome woke later to birds chirping. She smiled, she never had that back home. Home, where her father laid in a grave.
She got up and dressed, deciding that she would go and see his grave. She wore a white spring type dress and a pair of white heals with straps that wrapped around her legs up to her knees. It was an outfit her father thought was cute on her and one that he picked out for her. She put her hair up in a pony tail and let it hang down her back. All her hair was pulled back into the scrunchie.
She walked down the stairs and got into her car. A 1967 baby blue convertible Corverr. Her father's car and now hers. She loved this old thing; it helped her understand how things were in the world. If it became old, it died and would probably never come back.
He had put a stereo system in there for her and it did include a CD player which was great for her. They always listened to soft and slow music, and mostly it was for her.
As she got in, it smelt like him. She smiled and put in her CD, it had that soft music that they listened to. The first song that played was "Dance with My Father" by Kellie Coffey. She loved this song more than ever now, because she knew how the singer must have felt when she sang it. It hurt her, because she really did wish she could be with her father.
She couldn't believe that he was gone from her forever. It hurt her to be alone without him. He helped her through everything. The last thing she remembered him saying was "You'll always be my little girl." She cried and said he was silly. But at the time she didn't know that those words would be his last to her.
At the funeral service she had said those words to everyone, and she told them that she would always be his little girl. She told him that and she knew that he was smiling down on her as she said it. She knew he was never coming back and it hurt her to remind herself that every morning.
She sat there in her car and let the music take her away before she put it in reverse. She looked up and saw Inuyasha standing outside on his balcony looking down at her. She smiled at him and backed up.
She drove down to the cemetery music softly going and her voice singing along with it, right with the singers' voice. She could match every single one of their voices, and her father always smiled at this.
She stopped at the stop light and felt music vibrate her car. That was definitely not her music. She listened and it was rap, great. Another rapper wanna be. She sighed and just let her music play. The music she heard earlier was now right beside her.
A black truck, the windows rolled down and a guy with black hair stared at her. She looked away and waited for the light to turn green so that she could hurry up and get to the cemetery. The light seemed to take forever to change and the guy next to her kept eyeing her down, like a piece of meat. She felt violated.
Finally, the light turned green and she turned into the cemetery drive. She drove as close to his grave as she could. She sat down next to it and put the mini CD player down and played his favorite song.
She began to sing it softly and soon stopped as the song finished.
"Dad, I love you soo much. Don't know too much about Mom," Kagome said, sighing. "I miss you, why did you leave me alone with her. She seems like she wants to forget you. I don't though." She lied down and looked up at the sky, imagining him pointing out shapes in the clouds.
"There's a flower, Dad," she said softly. She smiled up at the sky and felt the sun shine down on her and enjoyed everything about it. She missed doing this with her father. Her mother was never any fun and didn't like to lie around in the dirt and look at clouds.
She closed her eyes and listened to the sweet sound of nature. It calmed her and helped her think. She was a soft person by nature and it was one of the things she got from her father. Her mother wasn't soft, she was just nice.
Music soon interrupted her silence. She looked up and saw nothing, shrugging she lied back down. A few minutes passed and she felt the sun go away. She opened her eyes and saw the man from the black truck.
"What's a pretty flower like you doing in an ugly place like this?" he asked. His voice was soft and dreamy, not rough and manly like Inuyasha's. He smiled down at her and then sat down.
"Uh, well I'm visiting my father's grave," she said softly. She sat up now and hugged her knees, continuing to look up at the sky.
He looked at her, as if studying her. "Hey, you're that new girl, right?" he asked. He had cyan colored eyes, a bright blue. They were looking into hers. They were pretty, too. A mesmerizing color, something to get yourself sucked into.
She blushed, "Yea, that's me. The new girl." She sighed and looked off from his eyes. She felt like they were still on her. "So, who are you? Do you go to school with me or something?" she asked him.
He smiled, "Yea, I go to school with you. I'm in one of your classes. My name is—"
"Yo, Kouga! What are you doing in a place like this?" someone yelled, cutting him off. Another guy walked up, looking disgusted and trying not to step on the graves. "God, you know I hate these places." This guy had a Mohawk spiked up, it was white. The other one (the one trying to avoid the graves) had white/gray hair on the sides and the middle was black.
"Jesus Christ you guys," Kouga said. "It's just a cemetery." He sighed and looked back at Kagome. "Sorry about that. Ginta and Hakkuku are just little pussies!" he more or less directed at the two guys.
"Kouga!" a female voice came from behind them. Kagome looked up and saw a girl with red hair in pig tails and a flower in one of them. She was pretty. Her eyes were the color of jades and looked pissed off inside. "Kouga! Why are you doing this? Picking up chicks again, I see." The girl stood over Kouga and tapped her foot on the ground.
"Ayame," Kouga started. "You know I would never do that. I was just… just… uh."
"You don't know, do you?" she said angrily at him and looked over at Kagome. "Oh, you're Kagome, right?" she asked, smiling over at Kagome. She reached out a hand and Kagome took it. "I'm Ayame. This knuckle head is Kouga," she said, pointing at Kouga. "And those two idiots are Ginta and Hakkuku. So, how did you end up here?" She cocked her head to the side and smiled.
Kagome's CD player had long since shut off and lay there ready for another run at the music. "Well, this is my father's grave. I'm just visiting him," she explained. "I've got to go anyway. My mom is probably wondering where I am." She stood up and headed to her car.
She heard them all arguing behind her. All but Ayame. "Hey, Kagome. Are you okay?" she asked, walking beside Kagome. "I mean, you look upset. I'm sorry Kouga interrupted your little meeting with your father. He's such an ass sometimes." She smiled a warm smile and said good bye to her.
She seems nice, Kagome thought to herself as she got into her car and started it. She put the CD in and it played her soft songs again. She was glad that they were playing. It helped calm her down.
A song she hadn't heard in forever played. Mandy Moore's "God Only Knows." It was a good song, but something she didn't listen to all the time. She often wondered if God really knew what she was like without her father. Without any man in her life.
She sighed and let the song play. It never hurt her to listen to these songs. It made her think that her dad was riding with her and singing along. It made her happy.
On her way home, she stopped by a convenient store and got a Dr. Pepper and a Pepsi vanilla. One for her and her dad. She drank both on the way to the house and talked, as if he were there with her. She let all of her thoughts spill out of her like she used to do.
She saw her house coming into view and drove into the driveway. Lovely, another little shindig was going on. She sighed and got out of her car.
Her mother ran up to her. "Where have you been, Kagome? I've been worried sick about you." Her mother had the face of a worried woman all the time, yeah right! But still, she did look a bit worried this time.
"I was at Father's grave," she replied softly. "Not like you would ever go visit it." She locked her car all up and headed to her room. She ignored anything her mother was saying at this point and just slammed her door and flopped down on her bed.
It was so nice outside; Kagome got her book, a pillow, her stereo and her CDs. She sat outside and turned on her stereo and put in her Shawn Colvin CD. It was folk rock and peaceful. She liked the music because not very many people she knew listened to it. Her mother hated it and that was why she listened to it even more.
The music helped her read better. She opened her book "Old Magic," it was about a teenage boy who realizes that he has magical powers and a girl who has to help him control them. Of course, the boy doesn't believe that he has them until he creates a storm inside his classroom, even then he doesn't believe the girl.
Kagome opened it and began reading it with her music playing. She hummed to it. Multitasking was one of the many things that Kagome became good at these days. Reading and singing, all at once. Her mother didn't see how she could do that; it was like reading, watching TV and talking on the phone all at once. She couldn't do it, but Kagome could.
She got back to reality, only to be sucked out of it again by her book. She imagined herself there, being more or less the main girl in it, the one helping the boy. She got so transfixed into it that she didn't realize the sun setting off into the west.
As it did, she only caught it when she couldn't read anymore. She sighed and placed her book down, lying down and looking up at the sky once again. The stars were beautiful right now and it seemed perfect right now.
She heard a giggle from in her room. Oh my God, Kagome thought. She turned around and saw a little girl with white hair down to her lower back. Her eyes were purple, yet a bit lighter. They seemed to perfect for someone like her. "Yea," Kagome said smiling.
"Oh," the little girl said with shyness in her voice. "Umm, well, I just wanted to see what Inuyasha's new girlfriend looked like." She smiled and kicked at the floor. Her eyes then averted to Kagome's entire room. They widened in shock.
"Girlfriend?" she asked, quite shocked herself. "What are you talking about?" Kagome remained calm, but smiled as she still looked confused.
"Oh, yea. Well," she started. "I don't know. My name's Shiori." She smiled and ran over to Kagome's bed herself, flopping down on it and feeling the softness of the feather pillows and soft silky sheets and soft comforter. "Oooh, your bed is soft." She snuggled into it and laid there.
"Are you Inuyasha's sister?" Kagome asked with curiosity. The little girl did look a lot like Inuyasha, only she had different colored eyes. She was so cute. She looked at Shiori as she lay on Kagome's bed. Her eyes were wide and looking straight at her.
Shiori smiled and nodded her head vigorously. "Yea," she said happily, and rather loud at that too. "He's a great big brudder and I love him! He's so nice to me, just not to everyone else. Which is okay with me!" She grinned all the while and bounced on Kagome's bed.
"Okay," Kagome started. "So, is Inuyasha really a nice guy?" Kagome really needed to know about him before anything ever did very far. She was afraid that things wouldn't turn out the way she wanted them to and her dreams, her goals would be all for nothing. And she couldn't afford that.
"Very nice! Well, at least to me," she replied. "Oh, and he was really nice to Mom, they were close. Then, she died and he keeps to himself, but he does let me visit him in his room." She smiled and walked over to Kagome's balcony. "You can hear him cry at night, for Mother. He misses her. He acts like he never cries, but I hear him. I try to comfort him, but he tells me that things are okay and I shouldn't worry. He lets me stay though." Shiori sat down on the ground and messed with the flowers that Kagome had in pots lining the railing.
"I see," she said. "So, do you miss her?" Kagome didn't mean to intrude in her life, but she seemed interested. Another family upset about losing a beloved parent, someone they could talk to.
"Yea," Shiori sniffled out. "I miss her so much! She's never coming back, is she?" As she asked this, she looked at Kagome and tears were falling down her face and onto her white dress. "Where did she go? Daddy says that she went to a better place. But how can there be a better place without us?"
Kagome took the crying child into her lap and held onto her. Shiori's tears soaked Kagome's shirt. She didn't care. The poor girl was hurt and confused; she had to help her somehow. "Shiori, it's okay. If you need anyone, I'm here for you," she told her, rubbing her back as her mother used to do.
Shiori looked up and smiled at Kagome through tears. "Really?" she sniffled out. She hugged Kagome really tight and cried some more.
"Shiori, it's okay," Kagome said soothingly. This little girl was so sensitive and Kagome couldn't believe that lived with a bunch of guys. "Hey, if you ever wanna get out of your house, you're always welcome here, honey." She smiled down at the Shiori and hugged her back.
"Thanks," Shiori said, smiling and getting up. "I've got to go, but can I stay here tonight?" she asked. She looked so cute as she asked that simple question.
Kagome smiled and nodded, "Sure, you can stay the night here."
Shiori squealed and ran out, Kagome guessed she was heading to her house to get some clothes and stuff for tonight. She guessed that it was going to be fun; a little child could keep you company every now and then and this child needed some company more than her.
She waited silently for Shiori. An hour passed and there was no sign of Shiori. Kagome sighed and just laid there on her bed. She had turned on her stereo and put on some Shawn Colvin. She helped her relax, soft folk rock. Nothing bad was in the music or the words, maybe one curse word in one song, but that was beside the point.
A soft voice and calm words could sooth anything. It helped her sleep also; well, besides her father's music.
Life seemed to pass Kagome by as she lay there listening to music and humming along with it happily. She stopped as a knock resounded on her door. "Uh, come in," she said softly. She sat up in her bed and saw Shiori walk through, Eri right behind her. Kagome sighed, "What do YOU want Eri?" She was ticked that Eri had the guts to come in her room after what he did. Interrupting her kiss with Inuyasha, that wasn't what she had in mind for something like that.
"Oh, well, I was just making sure my little sister got over here okay," he explained. "And, I just wanted to say I'm sorry about what happened. Can we still be friends?" he asked her, looking completely sincere. He put out his hand for an agreeing shake. How is that possible? Kagome thought.
"Yea," she decided. "I guess its okay. Friends, I can handle that." She smiled and shook his hand. "Just, leave for now. I need some time to myself." She sighed and smiled at Shiori.
"Wait, I thought that Shiori was staying over with you?" he asked, seeming confused at everything now.
Kagome laughed. "Yea, she is. I mean, without guys around. Right Shiori?" she asked the girl, giving her a slight elbowing. Shiori nodded widely and grinned big. "Bye, Eri," Kagome said flatly.
"Yea, bye Eri," Shiori said also, pushing him towards the door and shutting it behind him. "I'm tired. Can I go to sleep now?"
It was only eight o'clock, but Kagome agreed that she could go to sleep and if she needed anything she would be on the balcony reading.
Kagome set up a little night light for Shiori and turned on some soft music for her to listen to. She kissed the little girl on the forehead and went outside.
It was so clear; the stars were shining brightly and gave light over everything. It was so beautiful; she smiled as she sat down and opened her book. She was already half-way through it and it was getting better as she read it.
It seemed like only five minutes passed, but three hours did, and now her book was finished. It was a great read and she would probably enjoy reading again. Maybe Sango will like it, she thought to herself.
She laid there with her pillow under her; the stars were shining brighter now, and the moon was right above her. She glanced in on Shiori, who was sleeping like a little lamb, peaceful and silent.
Kagome soon fell asleep herself, being dragged into dream world she knew she could be safe in.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
The light showed on her, he just couldn't stand to see her there. He really thought that he should be there next to her.
Inuyasha figured that his mother meant that Kagome was his other half, but that couldn't be possible. He always thought that he would find another half demon to spend his life with. Kagome wasn't that half demon; his life mate was probably somewhere else, waiting for him.
He sighed and just fell onto the floor and watched as she slept. She seemed like an animal, she liked sleeping outside. He did too, but that didn't mean that he was actually going to do it. He sighed and continued to watch her. She looked so peaceful, so reserved.
What would he do at school; he couldn't act all nice and stuff to her. It would ruin his rep. He yawned and decided that this was going to be one long weekend. Eri was going to have his little sleep over party and things were going to get hectic.
He didn't particularly like any of his brother's friends, but he would deal with them. For now anyway.
Now, his friends were going to be over tomorrow and things really weren't going to go over too well. He sighed and threw the thought away. He wasn't going to think about it at this moment.
Sleep that was the only thing that he was going to think about. And with that thought in mind, he fell asleep and went into his own dream stage.
His own thoughts about what would happen at school with Kagome just flew through his mind. He really didn't know what to do about it. He would either have to blow her off or be a friend to her. He couldn't do the lather, because then it would mean that he had a soft side, and he didn't want anyone from school to know that he had one. His mother and sister were the only ones that knew of his soft side.
He was glad that Kagome had volunteered to help with Shiori. It would do that girl some good to be with other girl, especially with Kagome. He had a feeling that Kagome wouldn't let any harm come to his baby sister. He smiled in his sleep as he thought of this.
His mother would be so proud, and he liked the thought that she would've been. This made him feel proud, for whom he didn't know. Maybe it was for himself, but he really didn't know.
His short and easy breathes covered the night. He could hear Kagome's and their steady breathing sounded as one, even though they weren't together.
The wind blew softly off in the distance, cool air and it sounded like soft music to his ears. It felt good. Then, he forgot completely where he was and fell into that deep sleep he always confided in for help.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Kagome woke up hours later feeling chills go over her body. She saw that she had fell asleep outside, again. She smiled and rolled her eyes; it seemed so peaceful outside and it only made her fall asleep here.
She stood up and noticed that Inuyasha was asleep on his balcony. He looked so nice asleep. No stress lines, everything taken away from his face. He looked normal for once, he seemed happy. She smiled to herself and went inside her room.
Shiori was stretched all across Kagome's bed and slightly snoring. She was so sweet; a little sister that she possible never could have. She was great with kids, and that was the reason why she let Shiori stay the night. This might be fun and she let her sleep more.
It was only about six in the morning, and on a Saturday at that. She growled to herself and went downstairs to get her some coffee, maybe that would help her get an early start at things today. She did have errands to run and things to get, people to see too.
As she got to the kitchen, she heard giggling. "Not again," she sighed out softly. As she stepped into the kitchen she saw that it was her brother, Souta, and another guy with silver, white hair. This one looked to be about a year or so older than Inuyasha, making him about two or so years older than herself.
She went to the coffee machine and made herself some coffee. "Kagome!" Souta squealed. "You have got to meet Inuyasha's older brother."
"Half-brother," the guy corrected him. He smiled and it kinda took her breath away. "I'm Sesshoumaru." He held out a hand, which she took and shook.
"So," she started. "It's nice to meet you." She smiled and sat down with her coffee. "Souta," she said, looking at him. "What are you doing up so late in the morning?"
He just grinned innocently. "I wanted to get up, so that I could… Uh, to get a start on the day?"
She just sighed and knew he got up to bug her. "Whatever. Now, what are you doing here?" she asked Sesshoumaru.
"Well, I came over to see if Shiori was doing okay here. But, I happened to run into your little brother here. Seems like fun, this one," he said, smiling again and poking Souta in the stomach. "Well, I can see that she is in good hands. Maybe you could take her to the park or something today. Maybe out shopping." He handed Kagome fifty dollars and winked at her, then he got up and left the house.
Wow, fifty dollars, she thought to herself as she messed with the money. She smiled to herself and went back to her room.
Once she got to her room, Shiori was up and bouncing on the bed. "Kagome!" she squealed happily, jumping off the bed and running up to her. She looked up at Kagome and wrinkled her nose. "Did Sesshoumaru come and see you?" she asked, tapping her foot. For a little girl, she looked so cute doing that.
Kagome laughed, "Yes, he did. He wants me to take you to the park, or go shopping. You know, hanging out with me." She smiled and poked Shiori, sending her giggling and running back to Kagome's bed, and burying herself in the comforter. Her head poked out and a big smile was on her face.
"Okay! Let's go!" she said happily. "But, first we have to go and get me some clothes to wear today." She grabbed Kagome's hand and pulled Kagome out after her.
They went outside and towards Shiori's house. As they made it to the door, it opened itself. Kagome nearly fell over when she saw that it was a… maid? She looked highly confused, but shrugged it off as Shiori took her into her own room.
Shiori's house was much larger than her own. She waited as Shiori changed her clothes and then dragged her outside again, but to Kagome's car.
Shiori hopped into the passenger seat and buckled her seatbelt rather quickly. "Well, we're on our way," Kagome sighed out. She started the car and headed to the mall first.
As they were driving the light turned green and they began to cross the intersection. Everything went black and still. A horn honked and something seemed to smash into them, crushing them into a light pole.
