Chapter 2: Sleeping Arrangements
“You better hope mom doesn't find out about this Sota. If she does, she is going to shit bricks.” Kagome whispered frantically to her younger brother, as her mom got in the front of the car and it began to drive home. Their mom liked the front of the limo. That way she could see more scenery.
“That'd be pretty amazing.” InuYasha spoke up. Kagome glanced over at him, coldly.
“Did I ask you to talk?” She snapped. She really didn't like this guy. He was a criminal, who would be staying in her house, in her room. Why she agreed to this, she would never know.
Kagome just have this overwhelming feeling to let him stay. Maybe it had been because she felt sorry for him because he had to live in such a terrible environment. Maybe it was because his clothes were faded and torn. Or, possibly it could have to do with the pain in her eyes that caused her to agree. There was so much pain in his soft golden orbs. Especially, when he said he had a good reason to steal.
Kagome didn't want to be friends with him, or even get to know him. She did want to help him. From the bottom of her heart she wanted to help this boy.
That was uncharacteristically Kagome. Sure, she put money in the tins for the Salvation Army, but this was different. Yet a part of her felt her heart melt for the boy, and demand she help him.
“Hey. Don't get smart with me, wench. I won't put up with your shit.” InuYasha warned the girl.
His first opinion of her was that she was hot. She had an awesome body, raven hair, chocolate eyes. The she started talking with her `I'm-so-much-better-then-you-cause-I'm- a-spoiled-rich-bitch' attitude. No wonder he hated rich people.
“Yeah. I better not get smart. Your probably a women beater.” Kagome insulted, looking at her perfectly manicured nails.
“I would NEVER hit a women, wench! Just because I don't got no money don't mean you can treat me like dirt.” InuYasha glared at Kagome.
Kagome instantly felt a prang of guilt. She was being a little harsh.
“Sorry.” She mumbled, looking at the floor of the limo. She hated that word. She never used it. Ever.
The rest of the ride was filled with silence. No one knew what to say.
“Sota, distract mom and the driver. I'll sneak InuYasha up to my room.” Kagome informed her brother when they finally arrived at the house.
“This is where you live? Damn!” InuYasha admired the beautiful house. Sota hurried out of the car, then fell to the ground and started to scream. Both the limo driver and Mrs. Higurashi rushed to Sota's side.
“Come on! Follow me!” Kagome instructed. She opened her door and slid out. She made sure no one was watching, and then made a run for the door, InuYasha at her heels.
They stepped into the hallway, and then ran up a flight of stairs. They turned down a few halls then entered a room.
InuYasha was positive he would never be able to remember how to get there. There were so many hallways and doors. It was unbelievable.
“Wow.” InuYasha said when they entered Kagome's room. She shut and locked the door behind him. “It's so….girly.”
“Yeah, well, incase you haven't noticed I AM a girl,” Kagome said.
“Yeah, but I got friends that are girls and their rooms don't look like this.” InuYasha said taking in all the pink, and purple.
“Well, do they live in the ghetto, too?”
“Course.” InuYasha answered.
“There you go. They don't have enough money to have girly rooms. It must be tragic for them.” Kagome explained, trying to imagine her life if she was poor.
“Actually, Sango's a tomboy and Rin spends most of her time at my place, in my brother's room.” InuYasha said. Kagome's mouth opened to say something, but her cell phone went off to the tune of Queen's Fat Bottom Girls.
“Hey Miroku.” Kagome answered.
“Hey. How was your dad's?” Miroku questioned.
“Dirty, disgusting, nasty. It was the ghetto. What do you expect?” Kagome didn't notice InuYasha was listening intently to her side of the conversation.
“That sums up my expectations. So what are we doing tomorrow?” Miroku asked.
“Don't know. You guys could come over and swim. There's plenty to do here. Or we could go shopping!” Kagome exclaimed, clapping excitedly.
“No! Your place sounds great! I got to go. It's supper time and my father demands me to eat with him.” Miroku explained.
“I know. Seeya!”
“Bye.”
Kagome hung up her cell phone and slid it back in her pocket.
“Didn't know girls like you listened to Queen.” InuYasha commented about the ring tone.
“Oh. I don't. I like country. Miroku likes that song and girls with fat butts so I put it on for every time he calls.” Kagome explained, brushing her hair again.
“Is Miroku your boyfriend?” InuYasha asked suddenly, not sure why he cared.
“Why? You interested?” Kagome grinned at him over her shoulder. InuYasha's heart sped up, but just for a second.
“Keh! Why would I be interested in you?” InuYasha snapped, crossing his arms and looking away from her.
“Whatever.” Kagome mumbled, rolling her eyes. She checked her reflection in the mirror. There was an uncomfortable silence as InuYasha looked around her room.
“So……is he?” InuYasha asked, again.
“Thought you didn't care.” Kagome sneered.
“I don't. I just was being nosy. And trying to get on your prissy nerves.” InuYasha glared right back at the girl in front of him.
“Okay. Let's make some rules. Rule One: You stay out of my life; I'll stay out of yours. Rule two: Don't steal from me or my family. I'm nice enough to let you stay, so don't be a jerk. Rule three: Stay in my room. You don't want to get caught. Rule four: Don't make a lot of noise. And Rule five: Don't talk to my friends.” Kagome counted off the rules on her manicured fingers.
“Fine, but what if I need to go to the bathroom? I can't leave your room,” InuYasha mocked.
“I have my own bathroom. No one will see you if you use it.” Kagome pointed to a closed door that InuYasha just assumed to be a second closet.
“Does everyone in this house have their own bathroom?” InuYasha asked, his gold eyes wide in astonishment.
“Well, yeah. Of course.” Kagome answered, looking at him like he was crazy. Everyone in the world had their own bathroom, right? “I'm going to eat dinner. What do you want me to bring you back?”
“Ramen.” InuYasha answered quickly, without a moments hesitation.
After eating her own dinner, Kagome pretended she was still hungry and to the ramen up to her `guest'.
“What took so long?” InuYasha demanded, grabbing the bowl of ramen from Kagome's dainty hands.
“Grabby, grabby.” Kagome commented, dryly. She sat down on her temperpedic mattress, and watched as InuYasha inhaled his ramen. He was like a freakin vacuum. It was their one minute and gone the next.
When he was finished he thrust the bowl at Kagome. She glared at him, took the bowl and carried back to the kitchen. She felt like a….a….a slave! Yuck.
“My, Kagome, you sure eat fast.” Her mom commented out of no where.
“Yep.” Kagome agreed, patting her flat belly. Quickly, so she wouldn't have to lie anymore to her mom, she ran back up to her room.
InuYasha was watching Ranma
