Chapter 8- Kagomes Breakdown


Kagome walked into her house with Inuyasha behind her and shut the door. She went to the living room and saw her sister Rin pratically foaming at the mouth.

"Hey Rin I'm home."

"Did you know Kagome?"

"Know what?"

"Know about Sango and Miroku's little plan."

"No, but I can say that you should have known. Sango had always done this kind of stuff to you."

"I know you knew about it and you didn't tell me. Why didn't you tell me? You ususally do."

"Because Rin you weren't being very nice this morning. I thought you kind of deserved it. Inuyasha go upstairs and wait for me in my room."

They waited until he was safely behind Kagome's shut door before continuing. Of course they didn't think to talk inside their heads and Inuyasha could still hear every word they said.

"Kagome I was not trying to make yo mad this morning. I just don't want you or your sister getting hurt. I just don't think acting like each other when they take you guys out is the best thing. If you like Inuyasha, Kagome you should just tell him. You hung out with him today, so why can't you just tell him and be yourself everytime?"

"It's not that easy Rin. And go easy on Sango. She's only trying to have fun. Have you not thought about what moving here did to us? I mean yes it was hard on you, but you didn't have to move to a new place that was nothing like where you were before. I didn't really mind, because I make friends everywhere I go, but Sango doesn't. She had the same couple of close friends her whole life until we came here. So don't try to punish her for trying to adjust to this."

"That does not give her reason to behave the way she does. And you make things with Inuyasha not easy when they could be."

"You don't know what it would feel like to me if her rejectd me or told me he didn't want to be my friend anymore. Not only do I like him, but he's also one of the best friends I've ever had my whole life. So don't think I don't know how he's going to react when I tell him the truth because I do. Now if you don't mind Inuyasha is waiting for me in my room and if you're so worried about your date with Sesshomaru then make a new one tonight or something and don't tell Sango."

Kagome walked up the stairs and Inuyasha jumped out of the way just as she threw it open and then slammed it shut. She sat down on her bed and turned her radio on.

"Kagome, I think I need to leave."

"What? Why? If it's because of Rin don't worry about her we d-"

"No, I think you should have talked to her telepathically, because in case you don't know I'm a hanyou and I can hear very good even from long distances."

"Oh, no. Please Inuyasha I can explain everything."

"I already heard everything."

He walked out of the room and shut the door. Rin smiled at him as he left and he forced a smile himself.

Kagome got off of her bed and went to her sisters room and knocked. There was no answer so she went back to her room and lay down on her bed.

Sango, Inuyasha know.

Knows what?

About us changing places.

Where is he?

He left.

Are you okay?

Yeah, he wouldn't have heard if Rin hadn't opened up her big mouth.

She does that alot.

Kagome stood up on her feet and stormed downstairs and came a few inches from Rin's face.

"I hope your happy. He know the truth now. So I guess now that my life is ruined you'll be happy now and won't try to start arguments with me all the time."

Rin had a shocked look on her face. "Kagome how could you think that? I wanted you to tell him when you were ready I didn't know he heard us."

"Of course you didn't, but still I'm sure it makes you happy to know you didn't even have to do anywork."

"Kagome how dare you say that! I would never do anything to get you hurt!"

Kagome backed away and started up the stairs again. When she was halfway she stopped. "So much for giving me protection."

She then went back to her room and lay back on her bed. Tears began streaming down her face. All the emotions she had been holding inside came out. After her melt down when she found out her parents were dead she made sure not to let anything she was feeling bother her, but now she was feeling everything. Her anger, her happiness, and most of all her sadness were all pouring out of her. As much as she tried to hold back she couldn't and now she was going out of control.

She lost her conciousness and things in her room began to levitate around her including herself. When she finally did fall back down she was bleeding out of her nouth and nose and had various cuts all over her body. Even if she did wake up she would faint again because of the amount of blood she was loosing.

/////////////////////////

Sango and Miroku both jumped to their feet when they heard a loud crash come form Kagome's room. Sango was first and bust into the room. She rushed over to her sister who was now laying in a pool of her own blood. Miroku came in and starred in horror.

"Miroku go get Rin and hurry. She'll bleed to death if we don't get her to the hospital soon."

Miroku didn't need to be told twice and he ran out of the room, but to Sango's suprise Inuyasha came in a second later and scopped Kagome into his arms and left again. Sango had never seen anyone run that fast and had no doubt he was going faster than any car. Rin and Miroku came back and saw the blood all over the bed.

"Where is she!?"

"It's okay, Inuyasha took her. He's faster than our cars now come on so we can meet him there."

They all rushed to Kagome's car which was the fastest. For once Rin let Sango drive and they took off towards the hospital.

///////////

Kagome slowly opened her eyes. She had bandages all over her and she knew what must have happened. She cursed under breath and tried to sit up. Inuyasha saw her struggling and helped her then went back to his chair.

"You should be sleeping wench."

"Inuyasha, what's going on? Where are Sango and Rin?"

"They were here, but you've been out for hours. Sango took Rin to get some coffee to calm her down. She hasn't stopped crying and blaming herself for what happened since I brought you here."

"You brought me?"

"Yeah, when I left your room I got in my truck and headed home, but a few minutes later I could smell blood. I turned around and then it became clear to me where it was coming from. Then I carried you here."

"Thanks."

"Feh, not like I could leave you and let you bleed to death."

"I feel so bad about Rin. I'm a terrible sister. I told her it was her fault you were mad at me. She doesn't understand that this didn't happen just because of you. It happened because of everything. I have been holding in my feelings since this happened after my parents accident and well I guess fighting with her and you just set something off."

"Well why do you hold it in then wench? If you know something like this will happen?"

"Sorry if you were worried."

"I wasn't worried. I just couldn't let you die. As mad as I am at you I would never want you dead."

"Hmm, I guess your right. Well, you can leave now I'll be okay by myself."

"Miroku is here I'll make him come in."

"Wait before you go I have to ask you-"

"No, I didn't tell him. I'll let you and SAngo tell him the truth."

"Thanks."

"Feh."

She lay back on the bed and Miroku came into the room and sat in the chair beside the bed.

"How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine."

"You know you really had everyone worried. Especially Inuyasha. He almost broke the door down when they wouldn't let him in while they were bandaging you up."

"According to him he didn't care at all. He just didn't want me dead."

"He did seem kind of mad. What happened?"

"It's a long story. Miroku can I ask you something?"

"Sure anything."

"You like my sister don't you?"

"Uh...well...I know we are supposed to be kind of dating but..."

Kagome giggled but stopped when it hurt her chest. "Don't worry I already know you like her. It's obvious. And it seems like we're nothing but friends now anyway and I can live with that. Besides you and Sango are better for each other."

"Thanks for not making say that."

" You are welcome. But you can tell Sango and Sango can talk to Inuyasha."

"I don't think Inuyasha will care. He really cares for you. Even if he acts like he doesn't."

"Some how I already knew that. Now go find them and tell them I'm awake. I would really like to talk to Rin."

"Okay." He left the room and smirked at Inuyasha who was sitting in a chair in the waiting room.

"What the hell are you smiling at? And why are you leaving her alone?"

"She wanted me to find Rin."

"Feh."

Miroku got in the elevator and went down to where he thought Rin and Sango might be.

////////////////////////////////////////

"Rin, I know Kagome and so do you. She isn't going to blame you for anything. So stop worrying."

"Yeah, but if I hadn't yelled out about you and her trading places it wouldn't have happened."

"We both know that's not true. It would have happened regardless some time or another. Kagome has a lot of feeling bald up inside of her. I think it had more to do with mom and dad than you and Inuyasha."

Sango heard the elevator open and got to her feet when she saw Miroku step out of it. Rin stood up too and Miroku came over to them.

"She just woke up a few minutes ago. She wants to talk to Rin. We should hurry before Inuyasha kills me for leaving her alon for too long."

"Okay, come on Rin."

Sango and Miroku out their arms around Rin's shoulders and led her to the elevator.

"You know when everything is back to normal I'm going to kill you two."

They both quickly pulled their arms down and spread out as much as they could in the elevator. Rin just laughed.

"That's not very nice, Rin."

"Oh, but ruining my date is?"

"Yes, actually it's quite funny. You should have seen the look on your face." Miroku said laughing a little. He looked and saw both Rin and Sango were glaring at him and he quickly got quiet.

The elevator stopped and they all got out. Inuyasha was sitting in front of Kagome's door apparently gaurding it.

He moved when he saw Rin and then stood up. Rin went into the room while Miroku went to the bathroom leaving Sango and Inuyasha alon.

"Listen Inuyasha, it's not her fault. She was nervous to go out with Miroku and so we switched. After that it was my idea. I wanted to hango out with Miroku and I know you wanted to be with Kagome."

"Yeah, but as herself. I don't like being lied to if I did I would be with Kikyo right now. And I don't only blame her I blame both of you."

"Listen here mister you will not be mean or rude to my sister until she gets better. You got that?" She said only inches from Inuyasha's face.

"Feh."

"Good."

Inuyasha just growled and left the room. Sango knew he didn't leave just probably went to the roof or something.

Miroku came out of the bathroom and looked around. "Where's Inu?"

"I guess he left. Come on let's sit down and wait for Rin to come back out."

////////////////

"Hey, Kags." Rin said closing the door behind her.

"Hey, Rin. Why don't you sit down here?" She said gesturing towards the chair next to her bed.

"Okay." She sat down and looked at her sister. At this moment she didn't look like Sango at all. She was much more pale and looked like all of the life had been taken out of her. She looked small and vulnerable under all of her thick bandages.

"Rin I know I said I blame you, but I don't. I blame me. All of this is my fault. Even mom and dads accident is my fault."

"How is that your fault?"

"It just is. I should have stopped them, but I didn't."

"How could you have possibly known what was going to happen?"

"I had a feeling something was wrong, but I didn't say anything. I just let them go."

"Kags, you didn't do anything. Chances are if you would have told them it still would have happened. They never did listen to us when we had a 'feeling' something was wrong. And you are still a child. I just wish I wouldn't have said anything about Inuyasha."

"I'm glad you did. This could have been much worse. You remember how it was the last time this wasn't even close to as bad. And besides Inuyasha needed to know the truth."

"You are acting much older than you are right now, Kags. I am very proud of you, but you have to stop holding everything inside all the time."

"I know and I'm sorry about this."

Rin hugged her sister and then stood up.

"Sango will kill me if she doesn't get a chance to come in here and blow the rubber gloves into balloons so I'll be back in a little while."

"Rin do me a favor pleasa?"

"What?"

"Go out with Sesshomaru. Sango is here and so is Miroku so you'll be able to have peace. And I'm fine so you won't have to worry."

Rin smiled and left the room. A few seconds later Sango came in and of course grabbed some gloves.

"Sango why do you always blow those up?"

"I don't know they're entertaining I guess."

She blew two of them up and then sat down in the chair.

"You feel any better?"

"Yes, I feel fine."

"You are going to have to start being more like me. I think we need to get you a punching bag or something and we can tape Kikyo's picture to it."

Kagome giggled as much as she could without hurtung herself. "Yeah, I think that's a good idea."

"Yeah, so did you hear about what I did to Rin and Sessy?"

"No, do tell."

//////////////////////////////


Kagome was in the hospital a couple more days and then she was released. She still had to wear bandages, but other than that she was just fine. They didn't tell anyone what happened and instead said she got into a car accident, which everyone blelived. Inuyasha kept a close watch on her, but wouldn't talk to her nor would he talk to Sango.

Kagome was sitting in art class, which was turning into her least favorie. Inuyasha wasn't being rude to her, but she would prefer that he did instead of him acting like she didn't exsist.

"Okay class today I want you to draw and paint a portarit of happiness."

"How do we do that?" Inuyasha asked.

"Well, by drawing what or who makes you happy. Or a place that makes you happy."

Kagome already knew what she would draw. She went to the front of the room to grab her things. She came next to Inuyasha who ince again said nothing to her. She wnt back to her seat and began on her project.

She stopped a few times to look at Inuyasha who was concentrating on his own project and then continued with her own.

An hour and half later the teacher stood up from the desk.

"Okay, stop. Now bring me up your pictures a few at a time. The best ones will be out on display, so make sur you sign the front."

Kagome waited until Inuyasha got up and went up with him. He went first and Kagome looked at his painting.

It had a big tree in the middle of the paper. It had small flowers all over it and sitting on one of the branches was Inuyasha himself. Below him was the greenest grass and sitting a few feet from the tree was Miroku and Sango. Mirkou's hand was a on the middle of Sango's back and Sango looked like she was about to hit Miroku in the back of the head. And sitting with their back up against tree was Kagome. She was laughing and looking up at Inuyasha who was looking out into the sunset which was the background of the whole thing.

"Well, Inuyasha this very very good. In all my years of teaching this is one of the best I have ever seen. This will most likely be out on display, and you will be getting an a."

"Feh." Inuyasha moved over so Kagome could hand the teacher her painting. Inuyasha was about to walk away, but he stopped when he saw it.

It was a picture of the aquarium she and Inuyasha went to. You could see a much smaller version of the art on the aqaruium wall. Standing in front of the wall was Inuyasha and Kagome. You couldn't see Kagome's eyes, because they had a blindfold over them and Inuyasha was guiding her by the shoulders.

"Well another masterpeice. I am very pleased with this Ms. Higurashi."

"Thanks."

She let him keep the painting and went and sat on her chair. She looked at Inuyasha who wasn't looking at her, but she was sure was smiling and smiled herself.
