InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Inuyasha - love story - rewritten ❯ Becky ( Chapter 1 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

Becky walked down the dirt path feeling depressed and alone. Her once clean and shiny clothes were splattered with dirt and mud, rips down the sleeves and her belt hanging onto her frame by a single thread. It wasn't surprising in the least that she was in this state. She had been exiled from her village for over a month. She was lucky.

It's not that she was repugnant or anything, she had an attractive personality, and curves in the right places. She just had really, really bad luck.

Becky sighed longingly, wishing that she had someone to talk with. The only conversations that she had conducted were with animals, especially black panthers, and her own reflection in a river or lake.
 
She stopped walking and looked down at her feet. The socks were ripped beyond repair and the shoes were a disaster; the buckles were ripped and had been fixed many times, while the heels were collapsing in on themselves.

The sound of hurried footsteps caught Becky's attention instantly. She cocked her head to the side, so as to see the person running towards her, and her view was blocked by long, silky black hair, slapping the poor girl in the face.
 
Becky wavered, feeling her body gravitate towards a nearby cliff. Her heart began to beat faster and faster, everything playing in front of her as if in slow-motion. “DAMN IT, KAGOME!” came a loud, exubrant voice, from not that far away. Becky cried out for some aid, the weight of the girl pressing against her.
 
With a final waver, Becky was thrown off the edge of a jagged cliff. She screamed shrilly, trying to reach something; anything. Her hands only caught air, her eyes only saw the world spinning away from her at an alarming rate.
 
Becky closed her eyes, fearing the impact. Sweat beaded her brow and the hem of her dress snagged on a random branch. She prayed for it to stop her, to halt her fall, but she continued onwards. She continued to fall.

Suddenly, the air around her stopped speeding by. Her body regained a sense of balance and her scream ended abruptly.
 
She opened her eyes slowly, to find a young man, with amber eyes and snow-white hair looking back at her. His white dog ears poked out of his matter hair and his face showed signs of concern. He had his hand reached out, holding Becky's own. She looked up at him, the adrenaline still sending her body into spasms. Her sweaty hand started to slip from the boy's reach, and gravity took toll on her body once more.
 
She shut her eyes again, knowing for sure that the second time she wouldn't be so lucky. As her body fell down over the abyss, every joint and muscle relaxed. She suddenly started to feel as if she was out of her body, as if she was someone watching a lifeless doll fall over and into the darkness.
 
“KAGOME, STAY BACK!”
 
Becky felt her insides lurch as she was pulled in towards the man's muscular body. His strong arms wrapped around her tightly, not letting gravity take her away from him. He landed on a rock on the other side of the cliff, and then pushed off of that and brought young Becky and himself to safety.
 
Even on the safety of the ground, Inuyasha continued to hold Becky in his arms. The girl's ecstatic heart began to calm and her perspiration ceased.
 
And then the feeling came right back when she realized that she was being held in the arms of some strange man.
 
“AHHHHHH!!! L-LET GO OF ME-!” Becky cried, trying to pry herself away from him.
 
“Hey, whoa, calm down, you're fine now,” he called out to her, surprised.
 
“I SAID LET GO OF-.”
 
Becky fell out of the man's arms, and onto the rough and unforgiving terrain. She sighed, starting to get back onto her feet when she felt something unbelievably heavy fall on top of her. She screamed instinctively, trying to scurry away as quick as she could. Strong arms held her in place, refusing movement.
 
Becky looked up and found herself staring once more into the amber eyes of the man. “GET OFF OF ME OR I'LL-!”
 
And the man pressed his lips onto hers.
 
Becky's body went entirely still, the feeling new and irregular to her. She had never been kissed before. Her heart beat even faster, and the sweat began to form once more, but having this man's mouth on hers took away not only movement, but the ability to speak. Her cheeks flushed the colour of the man's attire, and as she looked back at him, she noticed a considerable amount of blushing starting to form on his face as well.
 
And just as Becky felt her body relax once more, the man pulled hastily away from her. He sat down on the hard ground, with an expression of downright confusion plastered on his still-red face. He faced away from Becky, his arms and legs crossed.
 
He shot Becky a soft glance but then, realizing that Kagome had appeared from thin air, (To him anyways, but Kagome had watched the whole scene unfold and had been too shocked to voice her opinion.) he turned it into a grimace and faced away from her once more.
 
Becky suddenly felt overwhelmingly confused and she looked up to the girl that had been travelling with the man. “Ummm… hi…” Becky said softly, her cheeks still a lush red.
 
“INUYASHA SIT!” Kagome said crossly, ignoring Becky. The redness of the girls cheeks told Kagome that she had enjoyed the kiss, making Kagome obsenely jealous, because she, herself had only kissed Inuyasha once, and that had been when he had been turned into a demon. This kiss had been seriously for real, with the man of Kagome's dreams.
 
Inuyasha wailed crossly, his body pounding violently into the dirt.
 
Becky's mouth widened, as she watched the two travellers squabble. Something in the back of her mind clicked into place, causing her cheeks to redden once more.
 
“A-are you guys… married?”
 
“WHAT????!!!!” Inuyasha cried, jumping up from the ground. He wasn't blushing any more, but he seemd shocked by the question.
 
Kagome remained silent, her heart beginning to feel heavy in her chest.
 
“I'll take that as a no,” Becky giggled, laughter erupting from her mouth. She continued to laugh until she was crying. Inuyasha just looked at her dumbly, feeling his heart begin to beat faster the longer he looked at the girl. He couldn't explain what he was feeling; for it was something he had never before, in his life, felt. As he watched her continue to laugh, and as his mouth began to feel dry, he realized, in shock, that he might have a crush on this girl. When he reached that conclusion, it only caused him to turn an even deeper shade of red.
 
Kagome watched Inuyasha intently, observing his face turn from pink to scarlet red. He began to tug at his clothes; as if they were causing him discomfort, and this was all happening while he was watching the half-demon girl laugh.
 
Kagome gulped, feeling her throat begin to get dry. Her clothes felt to big for her and she had trouble getting air into her lungs. She closed her eyes sadly, wishing that what had come to her mind wasn't true.
 
Inuyasha was falling in love.
