“I know my apartment isn't all that great, but my money has been a little tight lately. Plus a lot of my crap is in boxes,” Kagome explained. She didn't know why, but this man made her nervous. Normally Kagome wouldn't care what her home looked like when someone came over, but he was different. She didn't have guys over at her apartment often. Not since…no. Don't think about that. Not now. You have work to do.
“Please, mine's a hell of a lot worse than this.” He sat down on a wooden dining chair, since Kagome didn't have a couch. She grabbed a few pieces of paper and turned on his keyboard and sat on a small plastic bench in front of it.
“I hope you don't mind,” she said, pulling a few papers of sheet music out of a folder as he set up his guitar, “but I…I wrote a song. It's not very good, but I thought since we'd need a few songs with me in it, I might as get a jump start on composing some.”
“Whatever, let me see it,” he said gruffly, not even looking up at her. She grew red in the face, angry he was basically ignoring almost everything she said. Why the hell do I want to impress him? He's not so great. Kagome shook her head and handed him the sheet music and sat down at her piano. He skimmed over it and set it down on a music stand. “You wanna try it?”
Kagome shuddered, shocked and surprised. A few random notes came from her keyboard. “W-what?”
He sighed and his tone got a little harsher. “I said, do you wanna try it?” With a meek nod, Kagome agreed, realizing this would be the first time he had ever heard her sing.
And she was nervous as hell.
So she began to sing.
(Kagome: How can you see Inuyasha: Wake me up)
“How can you see into my eyes like open doors
leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
without a soul my spirit sleeping somewhere cold
until you find it there and lead it back home
Wake me up
until you find it there and lead it back home
Wake me up
wake me up inside
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
call my name and save me from the dark
Wake me up
bid my blood to run
I can't wake up
before I come undone
Save me
save me from the nothing I've become
now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life
Wake me up
now that I know what I'm without
you can't just leave me
breathe into me and make me real
bring me to life
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
call my name and save me from the dark
Wake me up
bid my blood to run
I can't wake up
before I come undone
Save me
save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
Bring me to life
frozen inside without your touch, without your love darling
frozen inside without your touch, without your love darling
only you are the life among the dead
all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
all this time I can't believe I couldn't see
kept in the dark but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years it seems
got to open my eyes to everything
without a thought without a voice without a soul
don't let me die here
there must be something more
bring me to life
Wake me up
Wake me up
Wake me up inside
I can't wake up
Wake me up inside
Save me
call my name and save me from the dark
Wake me up
bid my blood to run
I can't wake up
before I come undone
Save me
save me from the nothing I've become
Bring me to life
Bring me to life
I've been living a lie, there's nothing inside
Bring me to life
“So, was it terrible?” Kagome asked. Inuyasha stayed quiet. “Inuyasha? Inuyasha, are you okay? Inu-,”
“What else you got?” he asked with a sudden impatient tone.
“Uh, well, there's this, but it's not all that great.”
“Let's do it.”
He grabbed the sheet music from her and set it on the music stand roughly.
TOGETHER
i'm just so tired
wont you sing me to sleep
and fly through my dreams
so i can hitch a ride with you tonight
and get away from this place
have a new name and face
i just aint the same without you in my life
late night drives, all alone in my car
i can't help but start
singing lines from all our favorite songs
and melodies in the air
singin life just aint fair
sometimes i still just can't believe you're gone
and im sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven,
maybe we'll make it through one more year
down here
feel your fire,
when its cold in my heart
and things sorta start
wont you sing me to sleep
and fly through my dreams
so i can hitch a ride with you tonight
and get away from this place
have a new name and face
i just aint the same without you in my life
late night drives, all alone in my car
i can't help but start
singing lines from all our favorite songs
and melodies in the air
singin life just aint fair
sometimes i still just can't believe you're gone
and im sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven,
maybe we'll make it through one more year
down here
feel your fire,
when its cold in my heart
and things sorta start
remindin' me of my last night with you
I only need one more day
just one more chance to say
I wish that I had gone up with you too
Andi'm sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven
maybe we'll make it through one more year
down here
you won'tbe comin' back
And I didn't get to say goodbye
goodbye
Ireally wish Igot to say goodbye
andI`m sure the view from heaven
beats the hell out of mine here
and if we all believe in heaven
maybe we'll make it through one more year
i hope that all is well in heaven
cause it's all shot to hell down here
We need you
i hope that Ifind you in heaven
Singing in heaven
cause i'm so...
lost without you down here
lost without you down here
you won'tbe coming back
and I didn't get to say goodbye
goodbye
Ireally wish I got to say goodbye
“That was…” Inuyasha stopped.
“That was what?” Kagome asked, bracing herself for disappointment. He hates it. I knew it! Oh God, why did I sign that contract? Why did I do this?
“That was… good.”
Suddenly she got very annoyed. “You say that like you're surprised!”
“Well,” Inuyasha began shouting. Kagome was going to get a taste of his temper, “I didn't expect much from you! I mean, come on! What should I expect when Miroku brings us some new chick, off the freaking street! For Christ's sake!”
Kagome's face was bright red when she saw that Inuyasha's face held a sense of contentment and pride.
Little did he know, she had a temper of her own.
“Well, ecuuuuussseee me! If you didn't want to work with me, then fine, leave. I was only trying to do what Sango wanted us to do!”
Inuyasha stood up, along with Kagome, so they faced each other.
“She said for us to work together!”
“That's what I'm trying to do here! It's YOU that wanted to work on these songs, not me. If you wanted to write some music from scratch, you should have told me that!”
Inuyasha felt himself get even angrier, finding no suitable comeback. “Stupid bitch!”
“Inconsiderate jerk!”
“Saucy wench!”
“Unbelievable moron!”
“Know-it-all bitch!”
“Incompetent bastard!”
“Stupid bitch!”
“You've used that insult already! And that's the third time you've called me a bitch in less that two minutes!”
“Well, if I wasn't so angry, then maybe I would be able to think of some better insults bitch!”
“Don't call me that!”
The fighting pair inched closer to each other with every shout. Their faces ere inches from each other, Kagome drew a quick breath. They both blushed and stepped away from each other. Inuyasha grabbed his guitar and put it back into its case, walking to the door.
Opening it, he took one last look at her. “And I'll call you whatever the hell I want to bitch!” He slammed the door. Kagome let out an aggravated moan of frustration and sat in the middle of her box-filled living room.
