Its been a week since the movie and Kagome couldn't help but notice the change in Bankotsu. He rarely says anything to her unless with the rare 'Hn' or grunt. He wasn't acting like himself. All the attempts to make her blush and PDA came to a stop that night. He never calls anymore, give her good morning kisses. She'll be lucky if he even looked her way.
'Did I do something wrong' she asked inwardly.
Right now he was driving her home from school. Instead of the comfortable silence or silly conversations, the air was full of tension.
"Did I say something wrong or do anything to make you mad" she asked softly.
He didn't reply. Instead he just turned the volume up on the radio and continue to drive.
Before she knew it they arrived at her home. She tried to give him a kiss but he turned his head making her kiss his cheek. She knew how to take a hint.
He didn't want her anymore.
Her bangs covered her eyes as tears fell.
"I get it now" she said softly "Goodbye then"
"Kagome de-Kagome? KAGOME" her mother called seeing her daughter run upstairs.
Kagome shut her door and cried into her pillow.
She could hear her family outside her door knocking and calling her name but she didn't care. The only person she cared about right now didn't care about her anymore.
She cried until sleep took her into a deep slumber.
A few hours later she finally woke up when nature called. She got up and went to her personal bathroom.
Minutes later she came out with red puffy eyes, her hair in a disheveled bun and a pair of flannel pajama shorts with a matching spaghetti strapped top that came a little above her belly button.
She went and sat on her bed when she felt something brush across her leg. She looked down saw her cat boyou.
"At least you still care about me, right boyou" she whispered snuggling him close.
She was about to go to sleep when she heard something outside.
She got up and peeked through her blinds.
There below her throwing pebbles at her window was the last person she expected to see.
Bankotsu.
"What are you doing here" she asked softly not wanting to wake her family.
"Can I come up" he almost begged.
She wanted to say no but just couldn't. She nodded in agreement.
He jumped up and climbed in.
He took a step towards her but she took one back.
"I'm sorry" he said softly slumping his shoulders.
"For what"
He didn't do anything wrong. Whenever she was with him it was always fun and she could never stop smiling or laughing.
"For acting like a dick head all week" he sighed before taking a seat on her computer chair.
"I just cant get the two of you outta my head" he growled frustrated.
Sesshomaru.
How he hated that prick with a passion for what he almost did to his girl. He hated him more knowing it could not have been helped. Ever since the little scene at the movies the two have started talking again and recovering their friendship.
He know he shouldn't feel jealous because he knows he has Kagome and she would never betray him. But damn it, it was so frustrating.
"What are you talking about Bankotsu"
"You and Sesshomaru" he growled annoyed.
"Me and Sesshomaru?. . . Bankotsu we're only friends and that's all"
"I know that damn it I know you will never betray me especially with him but. . . Kami what's gotten into me"
He was frustrated beyond comprehension, but didn't know why. That just pissed him off more.
No one has ever gotten him so riled up. He had no idea what was going on with him. He never felt this way before. Knowing that he could lose something precious to him and there was nothing he could do to stop it. He felt. . . lost and it was unnerving him. What was Kagome doing to him.
"Bankotsu" she sighed softly walking up to him "I don't know what else to say or how to make this better. . . All I can do is tell you the truth. I want you, I want to be with you. Not Sesshomaru"
He didn't say anything. Instead he grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into his lap.
"I know and I'm sorry for the way I've been acting and the way I treated you" he said softly resting his chin on her shoulder "you're the best thing to ever happen me" he kissed her softly on her neck before picking her up.
They didn't need to say anything. This is like routine with them. He would sneak in when he wanted to see her. They talk, laugh, and if he's too tired to leave then he sleeps over, but leaves before her family wakes up.
He laid her down and soon got in after her. He pulled the covers over them and brought her close.
"Good night princess"
"Good night Bankotsu"
