InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Always Here, But Never Seen. ❯ Chapter # 4- Jake, Josh And Sam. ( Chapter 4 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

Inuyasha was awoken much to his surprise of actually falling asleep by slight whimpering. Though to human ears it’s was low, but to his it was quiet high. And it seemed to be coming from Kagome’s room.

He got up, careful not to wake Miroku who was currently sleeping soundly on the bed of the room and made his way to the hall.

When he reached Kagome’s bedroom door, the whimpering seemed to get a little louder, and when he opened the door he noticed that it was Kagome whimpering. But he had already guessed that.

He moved over to her after shutting the door, and locking it. He was sure that Kagome wouldn’t want her brother or any one else walking in when she was like this.

He watched her, as her face scrunched with fear or just plain disgust. Disgust that he had seen before. On some of the faces he saw in the villages in the past. He winched a little at that thought.

He heard her panting through her slightly parted lips, and had the sudden urge to kiss her. But he knew couldn’t and¾much to his demons discomfort¾wouldn’t do that when he had yet to tell her how he felt. Or find out how she felt about him. Maybe he could convince Sango or Mizu to weasel it out of her later. Though he was quiet sure that she couldn’t possibly love a half-breed like him.

He shook her lightly, resulting in her flinching and whimpering loudly. He felt hurt well up inside him, and shook it off as she was only having a nightmare. Not realizing that it was him who was here with her. He shook her again, this time with more force, and she still didn’t wake up. He could see tears start to wet her lashed. And had to control the new urge to kiss them away.

“Kagome.” he whispered lowly. And she cried out a little. He knew this wasn’t good. And he took hold of both her shoulders, leaned over to her ear and whispered
“Kagome, wake up. It’s me. Inuyasha. Remember me? Come on, wake up.”
“Inu…yasha.” Kagome whimpered, turning towards him.
“That’s right. It’s me. you’re safe Kagome. Wake up.” and she shivered involuntarily making him growl lowly. He knew she was either
A) Seeing things that haunting her from her past.

B) Things that she could imagine for the future going horribly wrong.

C) Imaging how her mother got killed. Or

D) feeling like it was entirely her fault.

He had to go with A or D. probably both if he knew Kagome right.

Her body jolted and he jumped a little.

“Kagome. Come on, you need to wake up.” he hissed it, he hated it when she was scared worst of all when he couldn’t to sweet fuck all about it! “Kagome. Damn it. I dare you to say it.” he knew it was risky, at how much he hated that damn spell. But he hoped it would wake her up. Remembering the last time he had said it, in fear of losing her and his friends to that stupid moth demon.

Then realization hit Inuyasha. That moth had been right. He was scared to be alone. He hated it when Sango and Miroku disappeared for a few days. He hated it when Shippo wasn’t around, even if he was only there to annoy him. And he had hated it most of all when Kagome didn’t come back. When her sweet scent didn’t fill his nose as he slept at night. She was the reason he had fought so well before. She was the reason he kept living. She was his life. And nothing meant more to him then her.

“I dare you to tell me to sit.” he growled, almost yelling it. Kagome didn’t stir though. But he thought he heard her mumbling. Leaning his ear closer to try and catch what she was saying he heard
“If….you want me…” and she stopped for a while. Making him think that’s what she was trying to say, making him blush a color that could rival his haori. “To…S-I-T you” she even spelled it out in her sleep! “Then….you asked…..for it.” she muttered, before rolling into him. And before he could cover her mouth to stop her from saying it, and making him crash down on her too, she said it. “Sit.” and he crashed onto the bed with her in tow.

He had expected a loud thud, and the sound of breaking bones, but heard none. He opened his eyes to see Kagome staring at him, smiling.
“You never were asleep were you?” he snapped.
“Oh I was.” she yawned to prove her point. “I just need a little push to wake me up.” and he blushed at the position he was in.

He was laying right on top of her, his face a mere inch away from hers, his chest planted firmly on hers, her breasts spilling out over the top of her bra, and he knew that he was positioned at her entrance by the way her legs were separated. Surprisingly holding back the new blush to keep his face from getting any redder he smirked at her.

“All you need was a push huh? And you thought telling me to sit would work?”
“It did, didn’t it. Though, I hadn’t expected you to land on me. Or on the bed for that matter.” and this time his blush did grow. And she laughed at him.
“What are you laughing at?” he snapped.
“That was a completely innocent reaction.” she laughed out. Sighing she tried to push him off her.
“What the hell are you talking about?” he snapped, the blush leaving his face.
“Well. Never mind. If you couldn’t smell it, too bad.” and she pushed him off her, looked at the alarm clock on the side of her bed as she swung her legs off it and sighed. It was only 6:30 in the morning.

Inuyasha blinked a few times, before taking a quick sniff of Kagome’s scent. And he almost fainted. Maybe it was because she was hanging around Mizu so much in the feudal era. Or the fact that he was sitting in her old room, which still reeked of the way she used to smell that he didn’t notice. But now he did.

Kagome wasn’t pure anymore.

Kagome wasn’t innocent anymore.

Kagome wasn’t a virgin anymore.

“What the hell?” he muttered.
“What?” she asked, sending him a weird look over her shoulder.
“You’re not pure anymore.”
“Not pure…?” it took her a minute but she realized what he was saying. “Oh, yeah. I know that.”
“You…know?”
“How could I not know?” she asked, the answer to his question was seemingly obvious. How could she now know that she wasn’t a virgin anymore? I mean, that’s kind of….a little weird.
“But…w-what? W-when? H-How?” he stuttered. She almost laughed.
“I don’t have to explain the ‘how’ to you do I?” she asked in a playful voice.
“I know how.” he snapped. “But I just meant-”
“I know what you meant. ‘How could pure innocent Kagome lose her virginity like that’?” she mocked someone who had said that to her once.
“Well….yeah.”
“People change Inuyasha. Times change. Situations change.”

Then he asked the question that was burning in his head.
“Did you love him?” he asked it quietly. She looked back at him, and realized that he wasn’t entirely comfortable with the situation. And he looked slightly hurt. Figures. she thought. Even if I told Inuyasha that he was the one that I love, he’d never take me. Not being ‘pure’ anymore.

She was taking entirely too long with her answer, and Inuyasha took it the wrong way. Meaning, he thought that she did love that guy, but she just didn’t want to talk to him about it. And he started to get up to leave. He never made it to the foot of the bed because her voice stopped him.
“No I didn’t.” she whispered it, so he barley heard it.
“What?”
“I didn’t love him.” he stared at her, and wondered how girls from this time just hopped into bed with a guy they didn’t even love. But he remembered what she said a few moments ago. People change, times change. and that was completely true.

“Oh.” was all he cold manage before Kagome sighed and laid back on the bed. The way her body stretched out made his some what limp member (From the incident with the bed) grow harder then before. And he wanted to groan.
“Then why’d you do it?” she gave him a weird look. But shrugged.
“Heat of the moment I guess.” she shrugged again and closed her eyes. “Not that I’m entirely complaining.” this made him gap at her. And silently wish he had been that guy, even if she didn’t love him.

“You’re….not complaining.” and he couldn’t hide the lecherous grin on his face.
“You’re just as bad as Miroku.” she muttered and he flopped down beside her, surprisingly contorting his on coming erection.
“At least I’m not trying to imagine it in my head.”
“Good point…wait…you’re not are you!?” and she shot up, eyeing him suspiciously. He laughed,
“No, I’m not. I may be a tad bit perverted, due to Miroku. But I’m not that perverted. I do have some self control.” The fact that his erection had yet to show was proof of that.
“Hmmm….I suppose so.” she muttered before walking to her closet. “Well, we better get dressed.” she said, walking to her closet. “Ah damn. Be right back.” she smiled and left the room, coming back with an arm full of clothes.
“If Mikidori let you speak English.” she through the clothes at him. “I hope she let you know how to put those on. Because I am so not helping.”
“Well, there goes my plan for the day.” he said sarcastically. Making her laugh again.
“You’re hopeless.” she muttered, before slipping yet another torn pair of jeans over her legs. Which Inuyasha noticed were longer then they had been before she returned again. Shaking his head lightly and watched her take a shirt out of the closet.

She jumped when her cell phone rang.

She sprinted to it, checked the ID and laughed.
“Great timing.” she muttered after flipping it open and pressing talk.
“Talk to me.” she said, leaning back on her pillows. Thanks to Inuyasha’s demonic ears he could hear the whole conversation.
“Hey baby.” a male voice said.
“Hey. What cha’ wearin’?” Kagome asked playfully.
“Ah I’m naked you?”
“Same here.” the guy laughed. “What’s up?” Kagome gave Inuyasha a look that told him it was an inside joke.
“Not to much. Me and the guys have been trying to get a hold of you all week.”
“I’ve been busy.”
“I noticed. But where do you live?”
“Huh?” Kagome sat up and gave the phone a weird look.
“We’re in Japan idiot and we’re trying to find your house. Mizu called last night, said it was some kind of shrine. Big ass shrine at that. Can you imagine Jake? Old bad ass Kaggy livin’ in a shrine?” there was laughter of other people on the phone.
“You’re all here?” she asked shocked.
“Yeah. All three of us.”
“Really? Even Sam?”
“Hey Kaggy!” someone yelled.
“You’ve got me on speaker don’t you?”
“Love you too!” someone said sarcastically.
“Oh come on. Tell em next time. I bet you’re sitting in the air port, got me on speaker with a bunch of old hags and they all just heard me say I’m naked.” Someone whistled.
“God only knows what we’d give to see you naked Kags.” Inuyasha growled lowly.
“Inuyasha, relax. Their only joking.”
“Whose Inuyasha?” all three boys asked. “Oh!! Kags has a boyfriend!”
“Shut up Jake.”
“Don’t tell me he’s gonna be another David.” someone said disgusted.
“You’re just jealous that I didn’t sleep with you.”
“That may be right.” and everyone laughed. “But still. You didn’t even like the guy, you only fucked him.”
“So what? You wouldn’t mind if I didn’t like you, just fucked you.”
“What’s you point?” Kagome laughed.
“I’ll pick you guys up. Stay at the air port.”
“Good, cuz we don’t have our cars.”
“Oh coarse not you twit. You can’t bring you car on a plane.”
“You can in privet jets.”
“Yeah well, if you had of told me you were coming I would have sent mine.”
“I didn’t know you had a jet!”
“I don’t.”
“Anyways. Bring Mizu alone, we’ll have a pop concert in the air port!”
“Pop concert?” Inuyasha whispered and Kagome waved her hand in front of him.
“Alright. Pop concert it is. I’ll be there in.” she looked at the clock. “A half hour, if Mizu doesn’t kill me with all her hair spray.”
“Alright! Can’t wait to see you!”
“Same. Oh hold on. You wouldn’t mind if I brought a few friends along would you?”
“Oh come on. Not more bad ass punks.”
“Josh. Not all my friends are bad ass punks.”
“Yeah, just us!”
“Alright, you’re bothering me. But I’m bringing them along wither you like it or not.”
“I knew you would.”
“Of coarse. See you guys soon. Love you. Oh and tell Sam that he better keep his hands to himself. He’s mine.”
“I heard you Kaggy. And I wouldn’t dream of it.”
“Of coarse you would. Bye.”
“Bye!” three sets of voices yelled. And Kagome could picture the looks the people in the air port were giving them.

Laughing she flipped her phone closed and looked at Inuyasha. Who was giving her the most shocked, confused, bewildered and jealous face she’d ever seen. Making her laugh harder.
“What the hell was that?” he snapped.“Who them?” she motioned to the phone. He nodded.
“Oh, that was just the guys. Sam, Jake, and Josh. Most perverted assholes I’ve ever meet. That’s why I love em’.”
“Oh really?” he raised and amused brow.
“Miroku is nothing compared to them.”
“Seriously?”
“I’d bet my life on it.”
“Well. That’s….interesting.” She laughed again. “What’s with the whole ‘naked’ thing?”
“Inside joke. Jake walked in on Sam when he was getting out of the shower. It was hilarious. I never seen Jake that red, or hear Sam yell that loud.”
“Huh. That must have been funny.”
“Yeah. They stopped talking for a month. Until I told them that if they didn’t start talking and getting the band back together I’d make sure then never have children. That got them talking.” Inuyasha gulped. “I’d never actually do that to them. But they don’t know that.” She jumped up, and walked back to the closet and picked up another black tank top. This one didn’t cover her tattoos on her hips or the piercings. It barely covered her breasts either.

“Are you going to get dressed?” she snapped, and started tugging at his haori. “What are you doing?” he said, trying to hide the blush.
“Trying to get you to take this thing off. You can’t go see the guys dressed like that.” she muttered, successfully pulling his haori off his shoulders, and down his arms.

Slipping her hands under the undershirt she slipped it off his shoulders and gasped when she saw he was bandaged up.
“What the hell happened!?” she almost yelled, staring at it. He shrugged.

“Some demon attacked before you came back. No big deal.” he muttered, looking away. Not wanting to admit to her that it was because that she wasn’t there to make him fight the way he used to that got him injured.
“Let me see.” she sounded just like she did the last time he saw her. Worried over him. And he smirked.
“It should be healed by now. I’m not sure.” and he let her take the bandages off. Slightly enjoying the feel of her hands on him. God he missed that, even if he put up a fight when he was hurt.

She unexpectedly sighed. “It’s already healed.” she muttered. Feeling ashamed of the way she jumped into old habits. “Uh…sorry about the whole ‘Damn he’s hurt! Someone call a doctor!’ thing. It’s a…old habit of mine. Sorry.” she said looking away.
“No problem.” he replied, taking the smirk off his face.
“Anyways.” she cleared her throat. “Well. Lets just see if Souta’s shirt fits you.” she grabbed it, Slipped it over his head and brushed her hand over his ears. He saw and felt her pause over his ears. And expected her to start rubbing them. But instead she pulled the shirt over his chest, and abdomen until the bottom of it was on his hips.
“Ah! Perfect fit!” she said happily. “I knew you and Souta were about the same size.” she grabbed the dark blue, almost black jeans with a rip in one knee. And Inuyasha couldn’t help but think that everyone in this family loved rips in their clothing.

She handed then to him and said. “I am not helping you get these on. Their’s a pair of boxers over there. They go under the jeans. You know how to put them on?” You’ve watched me enough, you should know by now. she thought.
“Yeah, I think so.”
“Alright.” when he took them from her, she turned and walked to the window, looking out over the grounds.

Lightly sighing he slipped out of hakama and pulled the boxers over himself. Then the jeans.

“Damn things.” he snapped at himself.
“Too tight?” she asked, not turning around.
“No.” he muttered, they were actually quiet baggy. Not as baggy as his hakama pants but still baggy. “Fucking zipper.” he mumbled to himself. And she giggled.
“Here.” she said, despite the fact that she had told him she wouldn’t help him get them on, she knelt in front of him, and held his hands in hers in a kind of guiding way. She moved hers and his hands to the button. Buttoned it, and then zipped them up.
“See. Not hard at all.” she said, standing up and not noticing the red blush on his face. She didn’t even look at him, not that she could really see him very well in this little light.
“I have to go get Mizu and Sango up. You wouldn’t mind waking up Miroku would you? Ah…wait…actually you get Mizu and Sango, I’ll get Miroku.”
“Alright.” and he opened the door, walked down the hall to Sango’s and Mizu’s room. As Kagome opened his and Miroku’s room she stepped in, a smirk on her face.

Inuyasha quickly woke up Sango, but Mizu wouldn’t get up, so he just hurried to his room to see Kagome leaning over Miroku.
“Miroku.” she purred. Miroku moaned. “Get up.” he muttered something that could hardly be called words.
“Come on Miroku.” and she winked at Inuyasha. “There’s a bunch of beautiful women downstairs, and their all egger to bear your children.” and he bolted up right and was out of the bed in seconds. Kagome rolled on the floor laughing.
“You perverted old man.” Inuyasha said. “And you already got a wife.”
“Oh, right. I do.” he said smiling. Kagome rolled her eyes.
“Sango and Mizu up?”
“Sango’s up. Mizu just told me to fuck off.”
“Damn.” and she walked out of his room, into Mizu’s and jumped on her.
“Come on Mizu! We gotta go pick up Jake, Josh and Sam!” Mizu’s eyes snapped open.
“Oh no. You didn’t invite them did you?”
“No. They made a surprise visit to the air port.”
“Knowing them.” Mizu looked down at Kagome’s and her position and laughed. “You can get off me now.”
“What if I don’t wanna?” Kagome pouted.
“Sorry. Gotta get up.”
“You can’t use too much hair spray either.”
“I know. It’ll kill you.”
“No. But it might kill Inuyasha. Or Shippo.” Then Kagome jumped off Mizu, and bolted down the stairs. Seeing Shippo on the couch watching T.V.
“Oh my god! Shippo I am sooo sorry! I forgot you were here!” she yelled hugging him.
“Uh…” 10 years of not getting Kagome’s hugs sort of made him a little uneasy. “It’s alright Kagome. I was outside anyways. Thanks to Oto I prefer to sleep in trees now.”
“Oto?” Kagome asked.
“Inuyasha.”
“What do you want now, kit?”

Kagome blinked a few times, before smiling sweetly. “I should have known.” she said, with a small shake of her head.

“What the hell is that smell?” Inuyasha and Shippo suddenly said, plugging their noses. Kagome sniffed a little and growled. “Mizu! Enough of that stupid hair spray! You’re gonna kill them! And me!” she yelled up the stairs.
“Sorry Kaggy!” Mizu called as she an down the stairs.
“That is the fastest I have ever seen you get ready.”
“I know.”
“Someone’s egger to see Jake.”
“I am not!” but Mizu couldn’t hide the blush.
“What ever. Hmmm…I wonder if my cars here.” Kagome muttered, walking to the door and out.

Running down the stairs at an impossible speed Kagome say her blood red corvette convertible.

“Ah! My baby!” she yelled, hugging the door. “God. A week is too long.” she sad happily. “Get your asses in here now!” she yelled, jumping into the drivers side.

Inuyasha scanned the car. Maybe it was because Mikidori let him know everything about the future, he didn’t know. But some male pride of his told him that this was a awesome car.

“Nice car.” he said, jumping into the passenger seat.
“Thanks, but how…never mind. Who said you can sit there? That’s Mizu’s seat.” Kagome said.
“Bite me.”
“Alright, where and how hard?”
He laughed.
“Dunno. You pick.”
“Suit yourself.” She leaned across the seat, and started nibbling on his neck.
“Damn. I didn’t think you’d actually do it.” he half laughed half moaned.
“Hmmm.” she hummed against his neck.

“Alright. Break it up love birds.” Mizu said, Kagome just laughed and started the car. Inuyasha blushed and looked away.
“Alright then Mizu. But when you and Jake are doing that, I’m gonna have you break you guys up.”
“Okay, for one. I am never gonna do that to Jake.”
“You right. He’d do it to you.”
“You’re hopeless.”
“That’s me!” Kagome said happily. “Alright. I need music.” And she flicked on the radio. Going Under played out of the speakers. (Going Under is played by Evanescence, but Kagome is going to be the one who sings it here. Alright? Good.)
“I love this song!” Mizu yelled.

“Now I will tell you what
I’ve done for you.
50 thousand tears I’ve cried.
Screaming, Deceiving and
Bleeding for you.
And you still won’t hear me!”

They sang it at perfect tone, well. Kagome did anyways. Mizu’s was a little off. But still.

“Don’t want your hands
This time. I’ll save myself.
Maybe I’ll wake up for once
Not tormented daily defeated
By you.
Just when I thought I’d reach the bottom.
“I’m dying again!”

“I’m going under.
Drowning in you.
I’m falling forever.
I’ve got to break through.
“I’m going Under!”

“Blurring and stirring the truth
And then lies.
So I don’ know what’s real and what’s not.
Always confusing the thoughts
In my head.
So I don’t trust myself
Anymore!
I’m dying again!”

“I'm going under
Drowning in you
I’m falling forever
I've got to break through”

“So go on and scream
Scream at me I’m so far away
I won't be broken again
I’ve got to breathe I can't keep going under”

“That was Kagome Higurashi’s new hit ‘Going Under!’!” an announcer called. “Here’s another one of her amazing songs and awesome voice!” And Whisper played on. (Whisper is also played by Evanescence.)

“Catch me as I fall
Say you're here and it's all over now
Speaking to the atmosphere
No one's here and I fall into myself
This truth drives me
Into madness
I know I can stop the pain
If I will it all away.”

“Don't turn away
Don't give in to the pain
Don't try to hide
Though they're screaming your name
Don't close your eyes
God knows what lies behind them
Don't turn out the light
Never sleep never die.”

IT never finshed due to the fact that Inuyasha flicked it off.
“Hey!” Mizu yelled.
“Mizu. You know as well as I do. That I don’t listen to my own music. Just be happy I let you listen to the first one.” Kagome said. Stopping at a red light.
“I know. But I really liked that one.”
“You didn’t tell me you could sing.” Inuyasha said.
“I didn’t need to. You followed me when I went to get mine and Mizu’s bags before. And I sang there. I knew you heard it.”
“Yeah well I thought it was a hobby. Not being famous for it.”
“Well too bad.” She snapped. Turning left and stepping on the gas. “Damn it. We’re gonna be late.”
“Late. For what?”
“Pop concert.”
“Pop concert?” Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Inuyasha asked. “Ah shit. Yeah. It’s a concert by a band that’s not scheduled. Like we just show up, and have a concert. That kind of thing.”
“Kaggy does it a lot.” “Would you stop calling me that! Sam’s bad enough!”
“But you like me. And Sam.”
“I do not like Sam.” Kagome hissed.
“Kaggy.”
“Stop it.”
“Why!?”
“Because my mother used to call me that damn it!” she screamed it, forgetting about the demons in the car who winched. And Mizu, Sango and Miroku gave Kagome sympatric looks. Souta had fallen back asleep.
“Sorry. Forget it.”
“Kagome-”
“I fine. Forget it.”
“You sure?”
“Just drop it.” And she pulled into the air port parking lot. Turned the car off, grabbed the keys and jumped out. Popping the trunk she grabbed her guitar, amplifier and a mic.
“You wouldn’t mind grapping the other stuff would you Yash? Great.” she threw him the keys with a smile. “Just follow the crowd, or my scent. Which ever on you find first. And close the truck when your done. And lock the car.” she yelled over her shoulder. Walking into the air port.

Inuyasha shrugged and grabbed a few things as did Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Mizu. Turns out Souta wasn’t really asleep. And he had already taken off after Kagome.

They walked into the air port, and Inuyasha sighed. Sniffing heavily trying to find Kagome’s scent. When he found it. He headed towards her. Only to see her in a lip lock with someone.

“Sam!” Kagome yelled, waving at him.
“Kaggy!” he yelled back. Kagome hid the winch well. She set her guritar down, and everything else and jumped onto him.
“I missed you!” he said.
“I missed you more!” and she kissed him as he spun her around.

“I thought you didn’t like Sam.” Mizu snapped as she walked up to them.
“I don’t like Sam.” Kagome snapped back after she pulled away. “I love Sam!” she said happily. Kissing him again.

Inuyasha just stared at her, gaping. And not believing it. The girl¾No, no, Kagome wasn’t a girl anymore, She was a women now¾that he loved was kissing someone else.

“Alright Kaggy.” Sam said. Smiling. “I do believe we have a pop concert to get under way!”
“We do.” and she looked around. “Hey. Where are the guys?”
“Still looking for their equipment.” “If they lost the stuff, I’m gonna kill em.” Kagome muttered.
“Kags!” two people yelled as Sam set her down. She turned and smiled as she men tackled her. Surprisingly she didn’t fall over.

“Jake! Josh!” Kagome yelled happily. Hugging them. “God I missed you guys.”
“It was only a well Kags.” “Actually, you guys were in Mexico on vacation for a couple months.”
“Oh yeah.” One of them said. “Um…” Sango muttered.
“Oh yeah, introductions!” Kagome said. “Okay. Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Souta, Inuyasha. This is Jake, Josh and Sam. Sam, Jake, Josh, this is Sango, Miroku, Shippo, Souta and Inuyasha.”
“Ah. So you’re Inuyasha Kaggy was talking to this morning. While she was naked no less.” Sam said playfully, extending his hand to Inuyasha.
“What!?” Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Souta and Mizu yelled.
“Sam. That was a joke.”
“Oh really? I didn’t know.”
“Sure.” And then Kagome noticed Inuyasha had yet to shake Sam’s hand. “Inuyasha. Be nice.” He muttered to himself before griping Sam’s hand a little too hand.
“Nice to meet you all!” Josh said happily. While Sam pulled his hand away and rubbed it slightly.
“Josh. Just cuz you’re gay doesn’t mean you always have to be happy!” Kagome said. “I am not gay! I’m bi.”
“By yourself maybe.” Jake muttered.
‘I am not by myself. I am bisexual you idiot.”
“You’re still by yourself.”
“He is not.” Kagome butt in. “He’s got me!”
“Yeah!” Josh said, wrapping his arms around Kagome and kissing her.
“What the hell dude!?” Sam yelled. “Get off my girl!”
“I’m not your girl.” Kagome said. “Just cuz I act like it for the press don’t mean nothin.”
“Oh that hurts.”
“Just shut up and set up.”

“So you…not involved with him?” Sango asked.
“What? Sam? No!” Kagome laughed. “He’s just a friend.” and she looked back at him. “A a really good, extremely good looking, drop dead sexy friend.” Kagome said purring. “But still. Just a friend.”
“You’re just as good looking, and drop dead sexy.” Sam said, wrapping his arms round her waist from behind and kissing her neck. “Possibly more.”
“Hmmm.” Kagome moaned.
“Love birds! Break it up!” Jake yelled. “I’ve heard that before.” Kagome muttered. Pushing Sam off he and grabbing her and guitar. “Ready?” At their nod she yelled into the mic.
“Hey every body!” and everyone went silent. “I’m sure that if you didn’t know before, you know now. That I’m here. And jst cuz I love you all so much. We’re gonna give you a surprise performance!” the crowd of people cheered. “Great.”

The crowd cheered louder as the song progressed

She looked over the crowd. And saw hoe there was an unusually large amount of people in here for 7:00 in the morning. But that was probably because of business or people form the street walked in to see her.

She looked at Inuyasha. Who was staring at her with a weird look in his eye. It was the exact same look he had when he was with Kikyo, and she saw them. That one time when he had hugged Kikyo, and promised to protect her. And she felt that hurt start to well up again, until she realized that it was her that he was looking at.

Flashing him a flirty smile she saw him face darken with color. And she resisted the urge to laugh.

The music stopped, and the crowd roared.

She smiled out at them. She turned back to the band.
“One more?”
“What could it hurt?” Sam asked from his spot beside her with his guitar. She smiled at him. And nodded.
“You guys got the new song I sent you?”
“Yeah.” Jake nodded. “Put it on.”
“Alright.”

“Okay guys!” Kagome yelled. The crowd cheered more. “We’re gonna play another song for you. It’s not one I normaly sing. So not my fault if it totally sucks ass.” the people laughed. “but. Here it is anyway. I’d like to dedicate it to my friends. Mizu, Sam, Jake, Josh, Miroku, Sango, Shippo, Souta, and most importantly Inuyasha!” she yelled smiling at them all who were standing in front. She nodded to them and they smiled. Inuyasha just looked confused. And she giggled. “Hit it!”

The music died down and everyone was silent for a minute. Taking in the knew way Kagome was singing. Until they all started cheering. Things like “That was amazing!” or “That’s so beautiful!” could be heard from the crowd.

“Thank you every body! Hope that song didn’t totally suck ass.” everyone laughed and cheered. “Well. I’m going to assume by your react it didn’t. But I’d like to thank you all for being here. And I’ll see you next time!” As she started cleaning up, most of the people cleared out, but some little kids stayed around for something.

When Kagome walked over to them Inuyasha saw the smile that Kagome usually held when looking at Shippo.

Kneeling down in front of them she smiled brighter. “Hello.”
“Uh…Hi.” one of the little girls said shyly.
“Well aren’t you adorable.” Kagome said sweetly. And the girl smiled. “Hold on a minute.” she stood again and turned to Sam.
“Hey Sam! Bring me a couple of those wrist bands would ya!?” she yelled to him. He nodded and disappeared for a minute.

“So. What’s your name?” Kagome asked. Kneeling in front of the girls again.
“I’m Cara.” the one with dark brown hair said.
“That’s a nice name Cara.” Kagome turned to the other. “And yours?”
“Mommy said no to talk to strangers.”
“Mommy’s right.” Kagome said with a nod. “But I won’t hurt you. Promise.”
“I know. I’m Sam.”
“I have a friend named Sam. He’s really nice. You’d like him.” Sam smiled. “Here Kagome.” Sam sia,d handing her the wrist bands.
“Thanks.” she turned back to the girls. “That’s him.” They smiled up at him. And he smiled back.
“Hey there cuties.” he said. And the girls giggled.
“Well. Here you go.” she slipped one on each other their wrists just as two women walked over. “Now. You two listen you your mothers. Okay? And remember. Don’t talk to strangers.” she said to Sam. Tapping her nose. The girl laughed. And grabbed her mothers hand. “By Miss Kagome!”

Standing up Kagome waved at the girls as they left. Turned out both of them were good friends.

She smiled and realized Sam wasn’t there anymore. She turned to Inuyasha. Too see him giving her a soft look. She blushed a little and walked past him.

“Why’d you do that?” he asked.
“Huh?”
“You didn’t have to do that for them you know.”
“So?”
“So. You just totally blew your bad ass cover back there.”
“What do I care?”
“Why don’t you.”
“Because I’m not you.” she hissed it. Glaring at him. “What’s that supposed to mean?” he snapped. “It means, that when ever you show someone you care you have to hide it like it never happened. Me, I can show people I care, and not have to hide it because I’m afraid that people might use me if they knew.”
“I’m not afraid¾”
“Yes you are. The only one who knew that you could be nice and you didn’t have to hide it from her was Kikyo.” that one was meant to sting. And it did. “What about you?”
“What about me?”
“I’ve been nice to you before.”
“Yeah. All because you didn’t want your precious shard detector to get hurt too badly that she couldn’t look for shards.”
“Kagome. That’s not true.”
“Sure it is. I know it. You know it. Everyone knows it. I bet you were happy when I left.”

Was that really what she thought of him? Did she really think that he had been happy when she left? How was that even possible? Everyone in the village was sad for months after she left. And half of them blamed him for it. Though it was partly his fault. If that was what she thought of him.

Maybe that was what he had lead her to believe. She he was never overly nice to her. But once in a while when his guard slipped he was nice. And he thought she just understood that he wasn’t trying to make her feel worthless, he just didn’t know how to show the things he felt. Apparently she didn’t.

“She likes him, doesn’t she?” Jake asked Sango.
“Who Inuyasha?” Sango asked back.“Yeah him.”
“Yeah she does. She loved him 10 years ago. Before he pushed her away by going to some other women.”
“Jackass.” was all Josh said.
“Yeah well, he loves Kagome to.” Miroku said. “He just doesn’t know how to tell her. He still thinks that she doesn’t like him.” Sango said.
“Well. We’re just going to hav to change that.” Sam said with an evil smirk. “We’re going to have to make a plan to get them together.”
“Got any ideas?” Josh asked. “Yeah. Here’s the plan.”
