InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Breaking the Barriers ❯ Chapter Four ( Chapter 4 )

Kagome touched her lips once more. `Why'd he kiss me? Hell, why'd I kiss him back?' Kagome closed her eyes, massaging her temples. `Dog-boy is so confusing. He's kiss Kikyo and then turned and kissed me...!' Kagome groaned as she felt a headache coming on. Kagome gasped as she felt her mother's hand slap across her cheek. She rubbed her cheek, and turned towards her mother. “What is it, mom?” Kagome spoke softly to her mother, hoping not to anger her.

 

“I asked you a fucking question! Stop dozing off and answer me!” Kori (Kagome's mother), slapped her daughter again, the welt on her cheek glowing an ever brighter red. She stopped the car in front of the house and glared at her. “Well?” Kori tapped her nails against the steering wheel.

 

Kagome gulped, rubbing her cheek. “I'm sorry. I dozed off. What was your question?” Kagome questioned.

 

“Who was that boy?” Kori stared suspiciously at her daughter.

 

Kagome bit her lip. “He was a friend.” Kagome spat, frowning.

 

“Who the hell wants to hang out with you? You're fat and ugly.” Kori snickered.

 

Kagome bit her lip again and looked down to her feet. `She's right. Look at me...! I'm twice the size of normal people my age.' Kagome closed her eyes, pleading her tears to stay back. She would not cry in front of her, never. She would not let her mother know she won. “Can we go inside now?” Kagome asked, waiting for mother to say so.

 

“Yeah, whatever. There are some groceries I want you to bring in. They're in the trunk.” Kori voiced, popping the trunk.

 

Kagome nodded and silently went to the back, carrying two paper bags with her before walking towards her cozy home. Her mother walked behind her, carrying a bag. Fishing out the keys, she luckily unlocked the door and stepped inside, letting the different scents of the house attack her nose. She went towards the kitchen and placed the bags on the table and went back outside, grabbing the last two bags left. Kagome sighed and grabbed some bottled water, walking upstairs towards her room, leaving her mother downstairs.

 

Kagome stopped and stared at her mother's open room. Kagome raised and eyebrow, curiosity dancing across her eyes. `That's funny, she never leaves her door open.' Kagome apprehended. She looked side to side, hoping the cost was clear. Finding it empty, she dashed towards her mothers room and looked around, her eyes going wide with surprise.

 

The sheets on the bed were made of silk, the color is a pure white, and the drawers were made of mahogany, a twenty five inch television was resting on top of the drawer too. She has a four post bed, the wood matching the color of her drawers. See-through curtains were attached to the bed, on all of the sides, including the top. Kagome looked around, her mouth wide open. The room was beautiful. Kagome sharply turn around, cursing as she heard footsteps nearing the room. “Shit!” Kagome hissed. She didn't want another beating.

 

The door opened, and her mother angrily stomped towards her. “What the hell are you doing in my room?” Kori cursed, her hands clenching to fists. She struck Kagome, making the girl fall to the floor. Ignoring the girl's pleas and whimpers, she kicked the girl in the stomach. “Get your ass up!” Kori grabbed Kagome's raven locks, pulling her up with. “Do I ever go to your room and snoop around.” She yelled into Kagome's ear and slapping her when she did not reply. “Huh? Answer me, you bitch! Do I?” Kori hissed inter ear, punching her daughter in the gut.

 

Kagome whimpered and shook her head. Her body was on fire!

 

“Answer me with words!” Kori growled, gripping the girl's hair tighter.

 

Kagome cried out and shook her head. “N-No. You don't.” Kagome gasped out, shutting her eyes.

 

Kori snorted at the girl. “That should teach you. Get the hell out my room. Put the groceries up and make dinner.” Kori sneered and pushed her out the room, slamming the door shut.

 

Kagome coughed, landing against the hardwood floor. Clutching her stomach, she leaned against the wall, slowly bringing herself up. She lifted her shirt, gritting her teeth as black and blue bruises form in her stomach. Running a hand through her hair, she examined her hand. Good, no blood. Sighing, she limped downstairs and unpacked the groceries and preparing some Oden for dinner.

 

Kagome sat in the kitchen, trembling. Her body was killing her. She ran a hand through her hair, frowning. `How come she has better stuff than me? She has a twenty five inch TV? I don't have that in my room. Hell, we don't even have a TV that big in the living room. She has silk sheets... What the hell is going on?' Kagome held her forehead, biting her lip. `Why does she have better things than me?' Kagome frowned at the thought. She stared up and faced her angry mother. “Dinner is ready.” Kagome whispered, handing her mother a bowl of food and a pair of chopsticks.

 

Kori nodded, sitting down across from Kagome. She silently ate her food, not bothering to look at Kagome.

 

Kagome began to slowly eat as well. “Where's Souta?” Kagome quietly spoke up.

 

``Your dear brother is at a friend's house. He'll be sleeping over.” Kori replied.

 

Kagome gritted her teeth. “May I be excused?” Kagome looked at her mother.

 

Kori nodded. “You're excused.”

 

Kagome nodded and stood up, making her way out the door. But before she could, she was stopped by Kori.

 

“Wait!”

 

Kagome turned. “Yes?”

 

“Yes, I do like Souta better than you. And don't forget to wash dishes!” Kori smirked and continued eating.

 

Kagome bit her lip and turned, running upstairs. She burst into her room, running to her bed. `Fucking spoiled brat!' Kagome thought angrily, weeping into her pillow. It wasn't fair. It wasn't fair that Souta doesn't get hit and gets everything he wants. He's a spoiled rotten brat. Kagome brushed away her tears angrily, shaking her head. She headed towards her closet, pulling out some old pajama pants and a white tank top. Heading towards the bathroom, she started the shower. Quickly stripping, she stepped into the shower.

 

Kagome closed her eyes, letting the cool water trickle down her face. She applied shampoo to her wet hair and began to massage her scalp, sighing in pleasure. Quickly washing it off and applying some conditioner, she began to wash her body as well. Staying in the shower a bit more, she caught a gleam in the corner of her eye. She reached out for it, and exclaimed the object. Her razor.... Kagome brought the razor to her wrists and bit her lip. With the flick of her wrist, she cut herself. Kagome closed her eyes, letting the pain go through her. Somehow, it wasn't that bad. The feeling made her forget about everything else. It made everything better. It wasn't that bad anymore. The pressure somehow vanished.

 

Kagome stood under the water against, letting the blood flow off her wrists. Placing the razor back, she turned off the shower and put on a robe. She dried her hair and brushed her teeth, wincing at her cut wrist. She slowly brushed her hair and put on her clothes. Humming, Kagome went across the hall to her room, putting her dirty clothes in the hamper.

 

Kagome headed back downstairs, and to the kitchen. Kori had left a note, saying that she went somewhere and couldn't be back until midnight. Kagome snorted and cleaned the kitchen. Hours later, Kagome sat in the couch, watching anime. The doorbell rung loudly in the house, startling Kagome. `We were to have guests over?' Kagome sprung up and went to the door, opening it.

 

She met empty air. Kagome stepped out of the house and looked around, finding that nobody was there. “What the heck?” Kagome shook her head and headed back inside, but something caught her eye. A box was placed in the front porch, with her name on it. Kagome warily stared at it, but took it. She headed back inside, locking the door behind her.

 

Kagome carefully opened the box, and a note, chocolate, and flowers were inside. Kagome smiled softly to herself. “A secret admirer, eh?” Kagome giggled quietly. She took the note and scanned it.

 

Dear Kagome,

Wassup, Kags! It's your one and only, Inuyasha. Look, I wanted to say sorry for kissing you earlier. You seemed kinda mad. So I bought you some flowers and candy. Please forgive me? Oh, yeah. I couldn't stay... So I just dropped it off and went home.

 

The One and Only,

Inuyasha

 

P.S Oh... Yeah... If you're wondering how I found out where you live, I got sources. I'm the mighty Inuyasha, remember? Have a great night...!

 

Kagome frowned. Fucking idiot. Kagome shrugged and threw away the flowers and the note, along with the box. Kagome grinned, opening the chocolate box. Her grin disappeared as another note was inside the box.

 

Kags-

 

Oh yea.... I was kinda hungry... So yea, you get the idea. Sorry!

 

-Dog boy

 

Asshole.
