InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Heart Breaker Higurashi ❯ Toilet Paper High ( Chapter 5 )
[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
Author's Notes: Hello! I know that it's the same chapter and all (please don't flame me!) but I have to tell you thank you so much for all the offers for the beta readers! Thank you for asking and volunteering though! ^____^.
Anyways. I know, I hated the part with Kikyo and Inuyasha too, but it had to happen. It's all part of the story. Some parts you will hate, but it really is hard to get over someone who hasn't given you such a proper closure. It's life, and I need my readers to see that I can put some realistic things in this. Besides, on my summary, I said that the main couples would be Inuyasha and Kagome, and Miroku and Sango, and I'm planning to keep my word.
Oh yes... in the last chapter I forgot to mention that the descriptions of Inuyasha's and Kagome's car has a significance. Keep that in mind when the later chapters come out. ^_^.
By the way, this is just a little filler chapter that I thought Kagome/ Inuyasha fans would be happy for.
Oh... and... I know I said that I would update my fic every other week, but the Sophomore Project for my school, has been a killer. Please excuse me, if for just this once. At least I updated right?

Heart Breaker Higurashi
Part Five
~*~
She really shouldn't have continued to see him after that one night out at the club. She truly shouldn't have. Somehow, she just knew that she was getting herself into trouble... but... she loved surprises and he had promised her that on Friday, he would skip going to the club, and just take her out instead on a surprise visit to - he never told her where.
Kagome had never been more curious...
~*~
Inuyasha figured that a little more information about Kagome couldn't hurt, so after speaking a bit more with Yuka, Eri and Ayumi, he found out two more things: one, that it would be Kagome's nineteenth birthday on Friday, and two, that she used to go to a high school, just about a four hours drive from the college, called Sengoku. Eri had explained that by the way Kagome had ranted on and on about her last school, she seemed like she had resented it, and this gave Inuyasha a plan.
He parked his car on the lot of a super market, grabbed to carts as he got out of his car, and headed off towards the bathroom supplies.
When he was finished taking just what he needed off the shelf, he pushed his two, filled to the brim, carts to the cashier, who had given him a wondering expression. The silver-haired young man just smirked and purchased his 'supplies'.
Maybe before he went on with his little surprise plan for Kagome, he would just have a little 'free day' outing with her. He knew her so much more than someone was supposed to know about a girl they had just met a week ago. He decided that he would make it up to her. She knew practically zilch about him, and he was planning to change that. If he didn't succeed in this plan, his 'plan B' was to let her enjoy the rest of the day.
~*~
The raven-haired teen stepped out of her last class after being so utterly bored for two hours, thirty-one minutes and sixteen seconds. This was her last class for the next two days, although it was just Tuesday.
The joys of college class scheduling!
She walked out of the building towards her car, and noticed someone leaning against it with a carefree grin on his face.
"Leave your car here for now. I want to take you out somewhere." His golden eyes searched her face for some kind of approval.
She smiled at this and walked to his side answering, "Sure," before the two bounded off into Inuyasha's car.
~*~
"... So... Where're we going?" Kagome asked, looking to her left at the drivers seat where Inuyasha was sitting.
"Just a little pancake house by the interstate. I thought you'd be hungry." Kagome grew a curious expression on her face as he continued to explain. "I stopped by your dorm to walk you to class, but Yuka told me you already left. She mentioned that you rushed out without eating your breakfast."
She nodded, but couldn't help but feel a little happy that he had stopped by her place, and the curious thing was that she couldn't understand why Inuyasha was, as of that moment - if for just one millisecond - the source of her happiness.
The drive was silent for the remainder of the trip, but the silence was a comfortable one. Driver nor passenger wanted to break the golden silence.
Inuyasha calmly parked his car in a perfect space, right in front of the pancake house called 'Ishitoro's Breakfast Utopia'.
As the two got out and went inside of the restaurant, they chose a table that seated two, right next to the window, with a perfect view of the highway.
Kagome didn't realize that she was feeling a little differently towards this outing of theirs. The feeling was not the same one she felt when she was with one of her other potential victims. She was too caught up in the scenery and her happiness to really care about what was truly going on inside her head. "Thanks for bringing me here by the way Inuyasha..." she said, sending him a genuine smile. "You have no idea how much I need food right now..."
The golden eyed boy smiled loosely back at her, wallowing in pride that he had been the cause of her happiness. "No problem," he said, shrugging off her words.
A waitress then arrived at their table and took their orders. Small chat had taken place during their waiting time for their food, with subjects mainly on school and their thoughts of Friday's club night. Once their food had been served though, their small chatter was increasing in depth. The subjects of school turned into their past school lives and their experiences and relationships back then, until Kagome couldn't help but ask, "So... Who's Kikyo?"
Inuyasha was on the verge of raining orange juice on Kagome's face. His face showed that he was completely shocked, yet dumbfounded, if it were even physically possible to have those two expressions shown on your face at the same time. Where the hell did she hear about Kikyo from?!
As if she had been reading his mind, she answered that he had blown it out the first time they ever met each other. She couldn't help but rub it in his face that he had no idea how to talk to women.
"I... I do too!" he complained a bit arrogantly. "Since you remember that I said she was my ex, why the hell are you still asking?" he glared.
Kagome started at him surprised. What had brought on the change all of a sudden? Wasn't he just acting nicely towards her a few seconds ago? "I... I mean I know that she's your ex-girlfriend. I just wanted to know... I mean, you seem to know a lot about me," she replied calmly.
He eyed her suspiciously. Had her friends told her that he had been asking about her life? They better not have... "What do you mean by that?" he asked defensively.
"I mean, every time I talk about something in my life which I'm positive I've never told you before, you seem to just help me end the story. It's as if you've read a whole book about me... or... or my journal..." she spoke slightly with a questioning tone.
He stole a glance at her confused facial features, and began laughing. Kagome stared at him as if he had just come back from the nut house. When he was finally able to control his laughter, he began to speak. "No... No... It's just that your story seems so predictable," he lied.
Kagome fumed at this. "Predictable? If it was so 'predictable', I would have known that Bankotsu was playing around with my feelings! I would have known that he would break my heart! But did I know that?" she harshly spoke back. "No! If I did know - which I didn't - I would have never started breaking-"
Too much revealed. 'Tsk, tsk Kagome... Your mask is slipping off...' Miyou complimented.
'That's not a good thing...' Kitsuke held a quiver in her voice. There was no way in hell this would happen! After all those years that Kagome had spent, perfecting her 'art'. She couldn't just throw it all away now, in front of a jerk none the less. A jerk that reminded her of Bankotsu.
"Bankotsu...?" Inuyasha questioned, smirking. So she was finally ready to tell him of her life?
After bringing up his hopes, she suddenly crushed it down with five simple words. "It's none of your business."
He raised his hands up in defense. "So are you ready for Friday?" he asked, abruptly changing the topic. Since they were in the midst of talking about their past lives and relationships, he had to admit to himself that he was a bit afraid to answer any questions about Kikyo. He couldn't tell her about that. Since she didn't know that he knew about her past life, there was not harm in keeping his past life away from her knowledge, although it had been part of his first plan.
The rest of the afternoon was spent with them just driving around the city. By the end of the day, they were found at the grocery store, buying food that Inuyasha needed to get for his grocery list, which Miroku had so kindly written for him.
"Milk is the last thing there right?" Kagome asked, holding up a gallon of two percent fat, milk.
"Yeah," Inuyasha agreed, but shook his head at her choice. "Miroku's lactose intolerant. He likes chocolate soy milk better. No fair for me, but I'm getting used to it." With this, he shrugged.
"I see," she said, placing her first choice down, and picking up the chocolate soy milk that had the lowest price. "Here you go!" she said, dropping the plastic bottle into the shopping cart. She couldn't understand it, but she felt a sort of satisfaction just helping Inuyasha out with the groceries. Maybe it was the fact that she had never done that before with any guy, not even Bankotsu. It was just the beginning of a list of one of Kagome's favorite past times...
With the groceries paid for, and an extra strawberry cheesecake Häagen Daz ice cream which Inuyasha had so kindly bought for Kagome, the two finally arrived back at the college dorm parking lot.
"Thanks again Inuyasha... I mean, you bought me breakfast and... well... now you got this for me," she said, motioning towards the ice cream carton in her hands. "You really didn't have to," she finished.
He gave her a proud smile. "I didn't have to, but I wanted to. Now stop thanking me or else I'll have to take that ice cream from you," he joked.
She smiled back at this. "I had fun today."
He stared at her surprised. Did she, Kagome, just admit that she had fun? Genuinely? He couldn't help but answer back that he had fun too.
"I guess I'll see you on Friday then," she said, as she got out of the car.
"Yeah," he answered, a little surprised. He followed her actions, stepping out of his car too.
"Thanks again!" she exclaimed, purely happy, as she walked over to him, kissed him the cheek, and bounced off to her dorm building.
Inuyasha couldn't help but smile at her retreating back.
Plan B had worked.
~*~
Two days. Two days of anticipation and boredom from Kagome. She really wanted to know where Inuyasha was taking her. The two had talked on the phone during the past two days, and every single time, Inuyasha would somehow manage to insert a little clue about Friday's outing, which just caused Kagome's curiosity to grow all the more.
When Friday finally came around, Kagome dedicated herself for six hours and twenty six minutes in her classes, deciding that if she was kept busy, time would pass by quicker. She was just glad that she hadn't bumped into Kouga or Hojo in the duration of those hours. It would just cause time to pass by slower.
She never knew that Inuyasha had talked to the two young men about her.
As she walked out of her last class for the week, she was pushed and shoved against all the other crowds of students in the hall way. With her small frame, it was almost impossible to maneuver her own way through the crowd. Knowing this, she eventually just let herself be taken through the flow of the students, and she ended up bumping into someone's rock hard chest.
"Oh, I'm so sorry about that Miss..." a young male's voice had said to Kagome. This caused her to look up. That voice seemed to familiar.
"Kouga..." she slightly gasped.
The young man looked down at her with his dark brown eyes and smiled. "Kagome... It's been a while since we've had the pleasure of bumping into each other," he said.
Kagome couldn't think of any nasty remarks to tell him. She somehow lost her sarcastic come backs just a few days ago. Some where in the back of her mind, screaming was heard, saying that it was all because of Inuyasha.
"Come with me," he practically commanded.
Kagome was taken aback from this. After the way she had acted with him, he was still speaking to her this way? After the way she acted... he was still talking to her, nonetheless...
Without waiting for her to answer, he grabbed her forearm and lead her towards the school's entrance.
~*~
Inuyasha was just on his way to pick Kagome up. If he didn't hurry, the sky would darken before they arrived at the destination he had planned as Kagome's surprise.
As he ran across the school's entrance, a figure caught his eye. He walked towards it and stopped directly behind that person. "Kikyo," he breathed.
A curtain of straight, raven hair was swayed around, and a pair of chocolate brown orbs met with golden ones. She seemed a bit nervous, yet relieved when he came.
"I... I haven't seen you in a while," he said, wanting to say something completely different.
"I didn't have class during the other times. This was just my third class this week," she answered. Her eyes broke the contact it had with Inuyasha's, and scoured the campus area for Onigumo. Her eyes met with a dark figure's, behind a dying cherry blossom. "I- I have to go. It was nice talking to you," she said so formally, before walking away.
Inuyasha didn't turn to see where she had walked off to. He knew to who she went to, and this caused him to frown. Right now though, none of this mattered. What mattered was getting Kagome to her birthday surprise. He ran from his spot in which he was standing on, when he spoke to Kikyo.
~*~
"Doesn't that hurt you, at least a little Kagome?" Kouga asked her, as the two watched Inuyasha and Kikyo speak, from a distance.
Kagome turned away from the scene, and crossed her arms. "Of course it doesn't hurt, Kouga. I just met him," she said stubbornly, although a part of her had been a little jealous of seeing Inuyasha with another woman. She quickly shook the thought off. Since when had she been thinking about that?
Besides, who was that woman?
~*~
After searching through the buildings in which Kagome's classes were held, Inuyasha was about to give up, until he walked back to the main building's entrance, and saw her talking to that wolf-boy he had met and questioned a few days back. What the hell was she doing talking to the guy? He thought she would have hated him after he forcefully tried to claim her as his woman.
Inuyasha walked right up to the two who seemed to be in a deep conversation. "Ready to go Kagome?" he asked, interrupting Kouga.
Kagome was glad for the interruption for Kouga had asked her about her plans with Inuyasha. Kouga told her that he had known her game after she broke up with him, and he was - more than ever - determined to win her heart. She looked gratefully over at Inuyasha and walked to his side, waving goodbye to Kouga. "We'll talk later okay?" she lied, not really wanting to talk with him any time soon.
"Great!" he yelled back before the two disappeared into the dorm parking lots.
~*~
"Let's take my car. You can drive if you want to. It's just that it hasn't been used in a while," said Kagome as they reached the front of the parking lot.
Inuyasha shook his head. They couldn't. He had all the supplies ready in his trunk. "We can use your car some other time when I get to know the feel of it and have time to practice on it. Right now, we use my car before it gets too dark outside," he said, grabbing her hand and leading her to his car.
Kagome just shrugged. Why not? As long as she knew her 'surprise' now. She had been so overly curious about it.
"It's gonna take a while to get there, so if you're tired or something, you can just sleep or tell me what you want."
She smiled at this. "Thanks."
"No problem," he said, as he maneuvered the car to the road.
Kagome couldn't help but feel giddy about what Inuyasha had said to her.
'We can use your car some other time...'
Was he implying that they would see each other often? Why the hell was she happy about that? What was wrong with her?!
"Umm... So can you tell me where we're going now?"
A low chuckle was heard from Inuyasha, as he softly shook his head. "Nope. I'd like to see the 'surprised Kagome' face. Now that'll be worth something..."
Kagome let out a playful growl. "Hey! Not nice!" she tried to keep her voice stern, but a crack caused her to just smile brightly. "Just... Just be quiet!"
The road trip was fun, as loose conversations went around the two people in the car. It was the most genuine fun Kagome ever had with a guy, even if it was just a simple interaction between them, on the road. It was true, she had had fun with Bankotsu, but with Inuyasha... It was just a whole different kind of feeling of fun.
The laughter and exchanged words died down as Inuyasha slowed his car down into their destination: Sengoku High School. Kagome couldn't do anything but gape at the sight before her. She never imagined that she would go back to the school that she hated so much. She turned to Inuyasha, as he smiled widely, and lightly punched his arm. "Why the hell did you bring me here? How did you even know that I went to this school?"
"Uhh... Happy birthday?" he said, still continuing to smile. "Keh. Have more faith in me wench. I didn't bring you here 'cause I wanted to torture you with all those bad memories-" Ooh... too much information.
"How do you know about that?" She took a step towards him; her eyes practically glowing red.
"I... I... Well..." he looked down at the ground. "I kinda asked your dorm friends," he answered truthfully.
Why?! Why the hell would he do that?!
"Why Inuyasha?" she felt slightly betrayed. Her friends weren't very good keepers of secrets.
"Because you're interesting Kagome. I wanna know more about you."
This surprised Kagome slightly.
'You interest me Kag. Tell me about yourself...'
That just reminded her of Bankotsu again. But... Inuyasha... Was he serious?
"Besides. I brought you here for this-" He opened his trunk, and as it popped up, Kagome noticed about four packages of toilet paper. "You hated the school so much. Maybe your memories will get better one you know you've taken some kind of revenge on it..." he said, throwing her a roll.
She stared at the bathroom tissue roll in her hands. "What do you want me to do with these?"
He ripped a roll out of one of the packages for himself. "We're gonna T.P. this place!" he said, running towards one of the school's buildings, and unraveling the roll of tissue paper.
"I.. Isn't this illegal or something?" Kagome asked, but she laughed and followed him anyway.
Inuyasha looked around, then at his watch. "The campus security'll be back here in about an hour and a half, so we have enough time to cover this whole damn place with this shit! They're eating dinner right now, those lazy bastards."
So, one and a half hours were dedicated to throwing around tissue paper everywhere. They had already finished with the second to the last roll, and Kagome held the true last one.
"Now where should this one be spent on? It's the most important thing!" she said, almost out of breath from the running and jumping that she had been doing with Inuyasha. While they 'decorated' the entire school campus with the rolls, the two young, and completely mature adults had played hide-and-seek, and tag. Kagome had never had this much fun with any guy before.
"I think this belongs in the football field," he said, eyeing the roll of soft, white paper.
Kagome nodded. "Now why didn't I think of that!" she smiled, as the two ran to the field and began to throw around the roll to each other.
Just then, lights were seen around the campus.
The two culprits looked over towards the parking area where the campus secruity's cars were.
"Shit, the campus guards are here!" Inuyasha cursed, as he dropped the roll, and grabbed Kagome's hand instead. "Come on!" he said as he ran across the field towards his car, with Kagome in tow.
"Wait! Inuyasha! Hold on! The grass is slippery!" she exclaimed before she slipped and fell back. Because of the fact that Inuyasha had been holding her hand, he was pulled down along with her, and the next thing they knew, Inuyasha was kneeled down over Kagome, as she was flat on her back from the impact. "Oww..."
"Shh... Wait 'till the lights go away," he said.
"What the hell happened here?" they heard one of the guards asking.
"How am I supposed to know? You were supposed to watch it while I ate my dinner you idiot! Come on. They should be here somewhere!" said another guard.
"Yeah, yeah, whatever..." The lights disappeared then behind the building.
Inuyasha and Kagome's breaths were harsh from all the running and the little scare that they just experienced.
Kagome was watching as the two guards walked past the field and towards one of the school buildings, and when they were out of sight, she looked up, preparing herself to stand. What she saw when she looked up though, made her heart beat twice as fast.
Two golden orbs stared back at Kagome with such intensity that it frightened her. She had never witnessed feelings so intense in her life. "I-Inuyasha... We... We have to go now before they find us..." she whispered to him, still slightly out of breath.
Inuyasha couldn't believe what he was seeing. After a few second of watching the security, he looked down to ask Kagome if she was fine, but what he saw caused his words to catch in his throat. He had never seen someone look so intensely beautiful in the moonlight. She was like a goddess. He just felt like kissing her right then and there.
"Inuyasha! Get off me now! We have to go!" she forced on. She noticed that he still wasn't budging. "Inuyasha! If we stay here any longer, the security might come and find us, and do you know the fine that we have to pay in order to clean this mess up? You know, in fact I think that they'll make us clean this our-"
The fact that she couldn't speak anymore because of something nice and warm over her lips registered in her brain pretty quickly, and the next thing she knew, she was kissing him back, but he pulled away just a few seconds after. He stood up and helped her on her feet.
~*~
In the dark of the night, on Sengoku High School's campus, two figures were seen running across to a shadowed car, which they reached without getting caught, and drove away with the head lights off.
~*~
Kagome discreetly looked over at the drivers seat where Inuyasha was at. She smiled as she watched his brows furrow in concentration as he drove.
'I want to kiss him again...'
