A.N. well the last chapter went VERY well. I'm glad. I really liked writing it. It was fun… old memories. Anyway. I hope this one is funny too… okay its not going to be funny at all I don't think. Either way. Read…enjoy…review… TELL YOUR FRIENDS!
LAST TIME
"You're still going to tell me what went on between you and InuYasha," he spat, "no matter how much it embarrasses you. It is your duty."
"To who?" Kagome asked, "you? You're hardly worth the time. It'd only make you upset and you'd try to kill him again."
"That may be," he growled, moving closer to her, "but you are still my fiancé. And you are required to tell me what I request of you."
"Fine," Kagome spat, pulling his ring from her finger, placing it in Sesshoumaru's hand, "I'll just leave this with you. Consider me your ex-fiancé."
NOW
"Your seriously going to walk home?" Sesshoumaru asked, trailing next to Kagome in his car. She had walked a good mile on her own before he caught up to her, because he had to talk Rin into going to the zoo another time and make Jaken take care of her. From the time that Kagome had left and made it this far she had walked two miles and Sesshoumaru had been trailing her for the last mile and a half.
"Yes," Kagome said sharply, "now go home and tend to Rin. She needs you to explain."
"I will not even attempt to explain to Rin what just happened," Sesshoumaru remarked, "now get in the car and I'll take you home and we can explain on the way."
"I'm not getting in that car," Kagome snapped, still looking ahead and refusing to even make eye contact, "the second I do you'll take me back to your place and talk me back into this engagement."
"What makes you think I would do that?" he asked innocently.
"Because you are almost as insistent with this wedding as your father," she said, "and I will not give either of you the satisfaction of tying me down. Now go home Sesshoumaru."
"I will not," he replied, making a sharp turn as Kagome made a left because he was driving just a little too fast.
"Then follow me home," she said, "the second I get to the apartment I'll put a ward on it. You wont be able to enter my place without getting purified."
"I'll take my chances," he replied, realizing that they were already near the gates of the apartment complex.
In Sesshoumaru's lapse of thought, Kagome took her chance to run up to the gate and tell the gatekeeper to detain Sesshoumaru for five minutes so she could get into her apartment and place a barrier, then allow him to enter. He wants to be a pompous ass, I'll be a royal bitch.
"KAGOME!" Sango exclaimed as she raced into the apartment, "where have you been?"
"Give me one second," Kagome said, sitting down in front of the door, a string of chants tumbling from her lips, "okay. HEY! How has your morning been?"
"Huh?" Sango said confusedly, "oh. It was okay, except that I woke up to find out you weren't here, you left no clue to where you were, and now you've just ran in here and placed a barrier on the door. I had a great morning. How was yours?"
"Terrific," Kagome said with a grin, walking into the kitchen for some milk, "I woke up freezing because Sesshoumaru's a cover hog. Had a good breakfast, never knew he could cook, got into a interesting conversation with a five year old Rin, and ended my entire relationship with Sesshoumaru because he's a pompous ass who gets jealous over the most ridiculous things."
"You and Sesshoumaru didn't…" Sango said, trying not to think about it, "have sex did you?"
Kagome smiled a sheepish grin, "…nnnnooo?"
"KAGOME!" Sango exclaimed, "WHAT? HOW? WHY?"
"Well I should hope you know how," Kagome snapped, "but the why is up to discussion because I really don't know why. We just… did."
Sango nodded her head, "you used a condom right?"
"No worries," Kagome waved her hand, "I still have two weeks before my cycle is due. I'm fine."
"ovulation takes ten days," Sango told her, "you better be sure your fine."
Kagome blew it off, "it's nothing. Now… three. Two. One."
-BANG BANG- "OW! KAGOME OPEN UP," came Sesshoumaru's shout, "WE HAVE TO -BANG BANG- OW! TALK! NOW."
"We have nothing to talk about," Kagome snapped through the door, "you dug yourself into a hole."
"You shouldn't have acted all smug then," he growled, "pretty much laying it out there that you did… THAT with my HALF BROTHER!"
"WE WERE DATING!" Kagome cried, "AND ITS NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!"
"It is my business," he growled, voice slightly muffled now that he wasn't yelling, "you are my fiancé. We tell each other those things."
"I'm no one's fiancé," Kagome said angrily, "I broke up with you over a hour ago. REMEMBER?"
"Please," he begged, sounding truly broken, "just let me in so we can talk."
"No," Kagome snapped, "you pushed the wrong button Sesshoumaru. Just leave me be. For once don't be yourself. This time it wont work."
Kagome stood there for several minutes, staring angrily at the door, when she felt his presence disappear altogether. When she looked out the window, she saw him jump over the rail and land gently next to his car, she felt it then, when he gave one more heartbroken look up at her apartment. She truly loved him, and it was over.

-Two Days Later-
"Kagome you need to get out of bed," Sango said softly Monday morning, "you need to shower -sniff- because clearly you haven't since Saturday. And you need to eat, you haven't done that either. And we have to get to school in two hours. We have finals remember? C'mon Gome get up."
"Go away," Kagome grumbled, pulling the blankets over her head and curling up into a ball after rolling over to face the winder, her back to her friend, "I'm not going to school. HE'LL be there."
"Of course he will hun," Sango soothed, running her fingers through her friends hair, "that's a good thing. We're allowed to wear regular clothes today. No uniforms. Now, your hair is almost completely faded, but we can straiten it after your shower, and you can put on something that'll make the ice cubes heart jumpstart and he'll realize that what he did was stupid. Lets make him squirm a bit."
Kagome rolled over, her eyes were bloodshot from crying, and she was almost deathly pale, "really?"
Sango nodded, "really. Now lets get a move on. I'll make breakfast while your in the shower." Kagome nodded, sitting up stiffly, still in the clothes she had from Saturday, which were technically Sesshoumaru's.
"Kagome why are you still in his clothes?" Sango asked as her friend stood up shakily.
"I wanted to keep his smell close to me," Kagome sniffed, running a hand through her knotted hair, "I couldn't bear to take it off. So I didn't."
Sango nodded, "go on. Get in the shower. I expect you out in 15 minutes."
Kagome nodded, trudging to the bathroom, "yeah yeah."
Sango sighed, walking into the kitchen to fix some food, but was startled when the phone rang. "We just had to get a land line. Hello."
"Let me speak to Kagome,"
Sesshoumaru demanded, "I know she is there.""She is," Sango spat, "but she refuses to speak with you and is currently in the shower."
"I expect her to call me before school,"
he responded, "if she does not I expect her to meet me in our first class. We must speak.""You are in no position to expect anything from her," Sango said, "don't call here again. I'll leave it up to Kagome whether she'll see you or speak to you."
With that she slammed the phone down, and busied herself making food for her friend since she had already ate.
"Sango who called?" Kagome asked, coming out of her bedroom, dressed in a skin tight black and hot pink mini dress with matching fishnet tights a pair black combat boots in hand that she set by the door, "I heard you yell at someone."
"It was Sesshoumaru again," Sango said, not wanting to lie, "he wants you to call him back."
"Well I'm not," Kagome said sadly, sitting down to eat the food Sango just placed on the table, "he can kidnap me if he wants to speak to me."
"He also wants you to know that if you do not call him back that he wants you to meet him in your first class before the exam," Sango said quickly.
Kagome nodded, taking a sip of the juice she pulled out of the refrigerator, "I may meet him."
"You don't have to," Sango said sitting down next to her, "you can just get there when your supposed to and leave when your supposed to."
"Yeah," Kagome sighed, not realizing that she wolfed down the entire meal and half a gallon of juice, "but he expects me to. And we have three classes together. He's pretty unavoidable."
Sango sighed and nodded her head, taking Kagome's plate, "go put some make up on to hide those circles under your eyes. I'll do your hair to finish the 'lets make Sesshoumaru drool' look you have going on there."
Kagome smiled softly before going to her room to put a little make up on. She succeeded in concealer, eyeliner and mascara before she started feeling like a clown so she put no more on and just added lip balm for moisture. "At least I look better than I feel."
"Not by much," Sango said quietly, entering her friends room with the hair straightener in hand, "but it'll do. I'll fix your hair so its not noticeable."
Kagome nodded, and sat in the chair for the next half hour as her friend fixer her hair, watching as the mass of slightly curled locks went stick straight in just minutes.
"All done!" Sango exclaimed after combing Kagome's bangs over and into a new do that made her eyes the focus in a positive way and you could almost not tell she hadn't slept much recently.
"Great," Kagome grumbled, "lets go. Your car or mine?"
"We'll take mine," Sango said with a smile.
--
"What do you mean you two got into a fight?" InuYasha asked, "I thought you both said things were good?"
"As usual," Sesshoumaru snapped, "its none of your business but it is, more or less, your fault. Now shut up and get in the car. Father is taking Rin to school because I have to get to ours early to see Kagome."
"Don't worry about it," InuYasha grumbled, climbing into Sesshoumaru's car, "she'll get over it in no time. She always does."
"She placed a barrier on her entire apartment," Sesshoumaru said quietly, "I could not touch a wall or door or window that was of that apartment without getting zapped with purification. But I could smell and hear all that went on inside. She's been crying for days, and she hasn't slept. I am worried."
"She'll be fine," InuYasha said, "don't underestimate her."
Sesshoumaru just gave his brother a look as they entered the school parking lot, but as he parked, he could see Kagome and Sango getting out of Sango's car. "Kagome?"
--
"HEY HIGURASIH!" some boy called, "NICE GET UP! WHY DON'T YOU SHOW ME HOW TIGHT THAT DRESS REALLY IS AND SQUEEZE OUT OF IT!"
Kagome sighed and shut her locker door, revealing a laughing Sango, "It's not funny!"
"Yes it is," her friend said with a grin as they walked down the hall, laughing all over again when Kouga tried to hit on Kagome and received a hit of his own, "has he seen you yet?"
"I don't think so," Kagome said, "but I think I'm going to meet him early like he request-oof"
"KAGOME?" Sango asked, surprised when her friend was all of a sudden tugged into a abandoned classroom.
--
"WHAT THE HELL?" Kagome asked, but realized who it was when she felt a pair of lips crash down on her own.
A.N. Okay! That is the chapter. I know its kinda short. But I'm tired and I want to sleep. And contrary to falsehood about most writers, I value my sleep more than anything… except my dog and family. But I will wake up if a story hits. But other than that I don't continue with something if I'm tired. So I hope you enjoyed and I'll update ASAP.
