AN: Okay sorry that I haven't really updated, one; I had writers block and I really don't think that this chapter is good but whatever, two; they broke into our house and took my computer and I'm using a school computer at my mom's school so I won't get to update a lot oh and for those of you who like twilight, one; I'm writing a fanfic for it and two; the fourth book comes out November 4th!!
I fell lightly onto Sesshomaru; he picked me up with out anyone noticing. I quickly shook that off. Okay so yeah, my dad I could handle this…right? I walked over to my mom gave her a hug and kiss then slowly went over to me dad and gave her an awkward one arm hug. I looked over to my mom again, and I noticed that it looked like she had been crying. I started wondering what was really going on.
"Mom?" I was going too continued with 'what's going on' but yet I ended saying "This is my friend Sesshomaru." I saw my dad switch feet out of the corner of my eye. "Dad, Sesshomaru, Sesshomaru, this is my… dad" My dad gave a small nod while Sesshomaru, however stayed silent. The silence was broken when we all heard the slight clearing of the throat. It just happened to be the lady with the blond hair.
"Who's she?" I asked though the question was directed only to my dad. I was kinda mad at the fact that this woman, whoever she is, interrupted our conversation if you could even call it that.
"Well since we are doing introductions, Kagome, Lucy, Lucy, Kagome."
My dad said nervously. "Okay but who is she?" I asked again. My dad had a look on his face like he hoped that I wouldn't ask this question. "Well you see she…um well…" My dad started saying, but I didn't have time for half started sentences I wanted to know what was going on.
"Dad," I said trying to keep my voice at a steady level, "Who is she?"
I took pauses between my words.
"She is my wife and your step-mom." He said it really fast to where it sounded more like' sheismywifeandyourstep-mom.'
It took a while for me to translate what he said then it took me a little while longer to take it all in, when I did though it was not pretty.
"WHAT?!" I screamed. I saw Sesshomaru wince at the sound of my screaming. I turned to him "sorry." I whispered before I turned back to my dad. "Now Kagome, I want you to listen because I'm married now, you can come and live with me because we can live a better life then the one you are living now." My dad said, "I don't want to, I'm perfectly happy here and what better life can I get we have a nice three story house I have a sliver viper grandpa helps mom and mom works as a nurse and even at that she only works twice a week."
As I said that I moved closer to my mom.
"Well, um you really don't have a choice." I was trying really hard to suppress my anger; I wanted so badly to hit him though. My mom put her hand on my shoulder, and I know knew why my mom had been crying. My dad wanted to take me away.
"You have to go Kagome just right now, till we at least get a good lawyer." I still wanted to hit him so that is what I did. I walked up to my dad and gave him a small smile much like if I was about to give him a hug, he smiled back and bingo I slapped him across the face. So hard to where even my hand was stinging.
I turned around and grabbed Sesshomaru hand and walked out of the room, went upstairs and slammed my door. When I finally closed the door I leaned up against my door and started blinking back tears, fighting really hard to do what I had not done for 13 years.
Sesshomaru pulled me into a hug, it felt warm and nice. A place where I felt really safe to be; and that nothing bad were going on right now. He pulled away and I wiped my slightly wet cheeks. Then I pulled completely away from him and started moving away looking for clothes for me, when I was to stay at my dad's house.
"When was the last time that you spoke to your dad?" Sesshomaru asked. I had to think about it for a while. "When I was 7 or 8 maybe younger, I don't know. Why?" I asked as the curiosity filled me.
"Because it doesn't seem right for your dad just to come out of no where and just take you away from your mom like that." Wow that was probably the longest time that I had ever heard Sesshomaru talk. Also on top of that he actually sounded like he cared.
"Don't stay like this to long." I had barley heard this but when I did, I really didn't understand it, so then I gave him one of those 'What are you talking about' faces. He sighed, "I like the fiery girl that I met the other day." I smiled at him, maybe, just maybe he actually did care…wait no, that can't be right after all this was Sesshomaru that we were talking about.
"The girl you met the other day is taking a short temporary break it seems that this would be her lunch hour." Humor danced in his eyes but only for a faint moment as I started getting my 'fire' back. "Are you sure?" he asked. "I'm so sure, I could be deodorant." He looked a little confused. "Deodorant?" He asked. He asked clearly wanting to know what I was talking about. "Yeah cause deodorant is so sure that it will stop the body odor on you, duh" I answers smiling at him.
I was almost done packing, when my mom came into threw the door. She was holding a box that went up to about her hip. "Kagome, I was going to give this to you for your birthday on Tuesday, but your dad was telling me about how they were re-doing the backyard and thought that I should give it to you now." She said holding out the box to me. The box was beautifully wrapped; it had black paper on the outside and white ribbon and bow. I took the package it was light yet heavy somehow. I ripped off the paper and a box appeared, should of seen that one coming, I opened it slightly before I flung it opened it up and saw a brand new deck for my skate board. I looked over to my old one that was leaning against my wall and it seemed as if one more grind and the board would surly snap into two.
I then examined the new deck. My mom or someone had already put the grip on the deck. The bottom of the beck had a plain black background with neon colored skulls and in white, in gothic looking letter said the words 'Punk Princess.' I put the new deck on the bed and ran over to my mom and gave her one of those tight bear hugs. "Thanks mom, I'll be sure to totally trash his house and make him pay for the years he missed." I said with a huge smile on my face that made you think that I was innocent. "You better," she said laughing, while leaving my room.
With me getting the new board, I went over to my closet and pulled out three pairs of regular boot cut jeans, three shirts, two jackets also one pair of skater Vans, and stuffed it all into my bag. Sesshomaru looked at me, "What?!" I asked him. "You don't look like the type of person that would skate." He said simply. "Yeah most people don't but then I do okay." I said while walking to my closet. I picked out a pair of grey skinny jeans that had black lines and small holes on the knee a black shirt that had stars on it and black and my checkered Vans. I changed into the outfit quickly, and pulled a white sweater off the hooks in the closet. As I walked out of the closet I quickly changed the wheels from my old deck to my new one, then picked up the house phone and dialed a number.
"What are you doing?" Sesshomaru said making me jump. I had forgotten that this major hot demon lord was in my room… wait did I just think that? Scary.
"If you be quiet you'll find out." I said to him while the other side of the phone rang. "Hello?" the person said answering. "Mom?" I asked even though I knew it was going to be her answering the phone. "Kag…" I cut her off. "Shh, I don't want dad to think that something is going on." She started whispering. "Oh okay."
"listen mom I want to break in the new deck so I'm gonna go try to go somewhere I don't know yet but yeah I'm going out my window so keep dad and what-ever-her-face away from the backyard windows." I told her very slowly. "Okay sweetie I love you be safe." Then we hung up.
Sesshomaru started at me "Where do you plan on going?" he asked me. "I don't know yet the skate park is probably closed, maybe go do some tricks by the park before someone tells me something." I replied. There was a moment of silence before Sesshomaru spoke. "I know somewhere" he said as if it wasn't really that important, well it wasn't but to me it was. "Really, and it's not closed or anything?" I asked cause I knew all the skate parks and there wasn't one that I knew that didn't close after 5. "Let's just say that I know a guy." He stated while walking to the door. "Where are you going?" I asked him
"I thought we where leaving." He questioned. "We are but my dad is still down there and I'm trying to escape from him." I said walking to my closet again. "Then how do you suppose we get down?" He asked curiosity filling his voice. "Hold on." I said running toward my window balcony and jumping off. It might have been my human ears but I thought that before I jumped off that I heard him gasp. Yeah it must have been my human ears. I landed with a soft thud in the grass. I looked up to see Sesshomaru looking over the balcony. "Sorry," I yelled up to him, "I'm not dead yet." He climbed up to the railing and jump, he landed even more softly then I did. And I had to get a running start to get a running start! Stupid demons, we started walking to the front of the house when I called my mom this time. "Hello?" she asked. "Mom I left threw my window but we need to get to Sesshomaru car so now you need you to keep 'them' away from the front window." I told her still walking toward the front. "Okay my love be safe and I want you home no later midnight and if you're going to be past that call me." She said. "Okay mom bye I love you." "Love you to sweetie."
We finally got into Sesshomaru car, which today was a nice 911 turbo Porsche, and drove off. "So, were we going?" I asked him when we got out of the neighborhood that I lived in. "It's a surprise." He said. I changed the station every once in a while till I finally got feed up with it and plug in my iPod and changed it between Escape the Fate cd and the Sweeney Todd soundtrack.
I was getting really tried of sitting in the car. "Are we there yet?" I asked sounding like a little 5 year old child. We past a sign saying that we were leaving the city limits, "Is this where you kill me?" he laughed, He actually laughed. "Relax I won't do anything we are going someplace where you can skate." "Okay." I said still a little worried as I saw a sign saying that we were now outside city limits.
