Chapter 12
Kagome woke to the phone ringing loudly in her ear.
"Who the heck would be calling me this early in the morning?!" She asked aloud with aggravation slurring her words.
Kagome grabbed her phone off her nightstand, rubbed her eyes and yawned into the phone before saying hello.
"Kagome, it's me Sango, so how did last night go?!"
"Sango it's 8 O'clock in the morning, couldn't this wait?"
"Oh, sorry I'm at work and I thought I would call you, I completely forgot about the time, I am sorry."
"That's all right, the evening was very lovely, we had dinner, I met all his collegues from work, and then he took me home like a good little gentleman, by the way thank you for all your hard work to make me look presentable."
"Presentable? Kagome you looked great!"
"Well thank you Sango, so did Miroku and you go out lastnight?"
"No...unfortunately Miroku had to tend to a very drunken Inuyasha last night."
"Inuyasha, drunk? Now there's a rarity."
"Yeah I know, I guess he was at some bar causing a major disturbance and the cops came, well they had him call a friend to go pick him up from jail."
"From jail?! Inuyasha went to jail?"
"Yeah all they did was stick him in a holding cell to cool off for awhile."
"Hmmm, I've never seen Inuyasha act like that before."
"Yes well I guess he told Miroku that Kikyou dumped him."
"Oh, well that might do it, now he has no one to play with anymore, although I wonder why Kikyou broke up with him?"
"Probably because he's realized he's really in love with you, I guess all night he talked about you, wanted to call you, wanted you to come over. He even got angry and wanted to go over to Sesshomaru's house But Miroku kept that from happening."
Kagome paused, this was all very strange to her and she wondered why Sango was even be telling her this.
"Sango?"
"Hmm?
"Whats up? Why are you telling me this, it's bad enough I am seeing Sesshomaru but now you give me this news, did Miroku put you up this?" Kagome was becoming upset. She didn't want to think about Inuyasha anymore, even though this news caused her to be even more confused then before.
"No Kagome, I just thought you might want to know, I thought Inuyasha and you still might be friends, you two cross words with eachother all the time, all four of us are still friends in my mind. I thought....maybe if he was still your friend you might care."
"Sango...I just don't know anymore...Inuyasha gave up on me a long time ago...I can't just sit around and wait for him to go back and forth deciding who he wants to be with, and I don't care if he was on ecstacy that night I saw them together, it's funny everytime I've been on ecstacy I can control myself, I still have standards and know what I am doing...he had his chance Sango. I don't want my heart broken again...he's just going to have to get through this by himself."
Kagome laughed quite suddenly.
"Yah know Sango, it might just cause him to grow up and act like a mature adult for a change."

Miroku awoke to the sound of falling books in the other room. He jumped up quickly and ran into the bedroom. Inuyasha had fallen out of bed and into the book case causeing all sorts of books to come crashing down on him.
"Well..It's nice to see you've finally awoken from your slumber." Mirkou chuckled.
Inuyasha growled then grabbed his head. "What the hell am I doing at your house Miroku?"
"Well you had quite the little adventure last night, and your house is in ruin at the moment, I had your cleaning lady come over with a crew to clean up the mess."
Inuyasha massaged his head. "Ahhh my head hurts like a bitch!"
"A whole bottle of Scotch and whatever you drank at the bar will do that to you."
"Thanks for pointing out the obvious Miroku."
"Don't worry I have just the thing."
Miroku walked away from the bedroom and into the kichen. Inuyasha sighed and groaned as he lifted himself up towards the bed. The very motion made him sick to his stomach and he thought better of it and sat back down again.
"Miroku, what did I do to myself lastnight?"
"Inuyasha, the real question is, what didn't you do?"
Miroku handed him some asprin and a glass of water. He then sat across from him and watched him intently.
"So what happened because all I remember is getting a slap in the face from Kikyou, then she said she was through with me and left. I think that's when I started to drink, but I never thought I would drink so much."
"Well then that explains the begining part, your slurred speech last night was more or less uncomprehendable."
"Well, how much of a fool did I make of myself?"
"Well you drank at home I presume, then you proceeded to drive to the local bar, I assume because you drank the only alcohol you had at home. You became loud and obnoxious at the bar and after the bartender refused to give you anymore drinks you yelled at him and threw money at his face. That's when the owner called the police."
"The Police!"
"Yes the Police, well in your incoherent babble you were able to give them my wonderful phone number and so they called me to come pick you up."
"Miroku..I'm"
"I'm not finished yet."
Inuyasha frowned, his eyes did too, like a puppy might look that has just been scolded.
"I picked you up in my car and you proceeded to yell and scream about wanting to go to Kagome's house and talk to her. I thought it better to take you home. But when we arrived to your house it was a mess, it looked like you had a tirade in your living room, so I thought I would you to here. Well...you had some rage left in you and then demanded I take you to Sesshomaru's house so you could yell at him. After I refused and knocked you over the head once you calmed down in my toliet. That's when the apologies came and you cried about Kagome and how..."
"ENOUGH MIROKU! I get the point."
Miroku smiled deviously. "Well you asked."
"Yes and I've heard enough."
"Well I am glad to see the 'regular' Inuyasha is here, maybe now he can go home and let me sleep."
"I'm sorry Miroku. Thank you for helping me out, I guess I got really upset about Kikyou and Kagome."
"Inuyasha I am your friend, I will always help you, but just alittle advice, it seems you need to to do some serious thinking, in a more peaceful manner. You need to calm yourself and stop acting like a child. Things can't always go the way you want them to and Kagome or Kikyou may not want to be with you, but what's the big deal, there are other fish in the sea, don't ruin your friendship with Kagome, if one is left to salvage."
Inuyasha got up finally, willing himself. Inuyasha thought about what Miroku said, he was right. He may have a chance with Kagome still, well at least to remain friends, but would he be able to see her in his brothers arms? The thought of it made him angry and sick to his stomach. He began to fall back to the ground again. What did Sesshomaru have that he didn't? Well at the moment he could make a list of things. He would just have to talk to her, just a few moments alone with her to explain himself and how he felt. Could he do it? Could he tell her what an awful mistake he had made?
Miroku suddenly took his arm and pulled him up.
"Come on I'll take you home."

Sesshomaru was less then interested in what the local newspaper had to say about his brothers charades the night before. He wasn't going to scold him for his unrulyness. He figured it was bound to happen sometime. He knew Inuyasha's temper, knew that few people could calm him after such ridiculous behaviour, but the part that infuriated him was his name was connected, connected in every way, and so was the company. This wouldn't do good for business and he knew he would receive more then his far share of calls from the board and Mr. Tokugawa. Sesshomaru prided himself on his cool calm collectiveness, so opposite of his half brother. Why must he always play parent to his younger brother he thought.
The phone suddenly rang.
"Sesshomaru speaking."
"Ahhh Sesshomaru just the man I wanted to speak with."
"Mr. Tokugawa, I have been expecting your call."
"Yes then I am sure you have read the morning paper?"
"I have."
"Well then...you do know why I am calling you. I also want to add I have a feeling I know why this happened."
"Please enlighten me."
"Could it possibly be that it is because you are dating a former girl of his..someone he may have feelings for still?"
Sesshomaru was taken a back, Mr. Tokugawa did know, he was more perceptive then Sesshomaru had reason to believe.
"Don't take me for a fool young boy, I was your father's bestfriend, and you are very much like him, and so is Inuyasha. I have seen that woman before, but not with you, I saw her many years ago in the Taisho house, she was probably merely 16 at the time, her and Inuyasha were dating all through high school if I remember correctly. I even remember your father showing me a picture of the two of them explaining to me how much he adored Kagome and thought her to be the perfect handle on Inuyasha."
"Yes well, that was many years ago. Inuyasha had his chance, it's obvious she no longer feels that way about him."
"Sesshomaru, this could be your very demise, your brother can be very vengeful, so selfish he would even cause strife with the company if it were any way to get back at you, do you want something like that to happen?"
"No, and I don't see anything like that happening, if I know one thing about Inuyasha, it's that he does have some brains, and he knows I keep a tight rein on his income, I would cut those strings if necessary."
"Well...I hope you know what your in for."
"Really Mr. Tokugawa I never thought sibling rivalry interested you so much?"
"It does when the company is at stake, and all over some girl, I do not want your father's company to fail due to brothers whom can't grow up and get along."
"The company is in good hands I assure you. I will talk to Inuyasha regarding this little episode of his."
"Thank you Sesshomaru,attempt to be kind to eachother please."
"Oh...and Mr. Tokugawa..she isn't...just...some girl."
"Yes I know, I don't think she is 'just some girl' to either of you, that is what concerns me greatly."
Sesshomaru hung up the phone and looked over the vast horizon of the city. He sighed. He knew he would have to come to grips with the fact that sooner or later he was going to have to attempt a conversation with that half wit brother of his. He despised Inuyasha, thought nothing of him, he never asked for him to become part of the family. He was furious with his father when he decided to remarry, to a common stale no less. She was beautiful and always very kind to Sesshomaru but when Inuyasha was born his father always wanted him to take care of him, be the big brother. Sesshomaru might have wanted to be the big brother if the child were from his real mother but he was not. And Sesshomaru couldn't possibly be related to a constant cry baby and insecure person such as Inuyasha. Inuyasha was brash and loud and obnoxious, always trying to out do and best Sesshomaru, the problem was Sesshomaru had a tight hold on his emotions and was disciplined in the arts of self control. Inuyasha had no control in either department. He was like a wild dog that needed a leash. For awhile Kagome was the leash. But to Sesshomaru she seemed tired of holding the leash, and even when she was he still got away from time to time to act in less desirable ways. Kagome seemed ready for a mature relationship with someone of higher caliber and maturity, a gentleman, like him. He smiled to himself. Just the thought of her seemed to make all his worries go away. She had truly made him happy and he wanted to do the same for her. Never would he cheat on her or make her feel less then what she was, and to him she was everything. He knew he had fallen, fallen hard, and wasn't about to let her go.
