Chapter 3
Show me Yours and I'll Show you Mine.
 
I remember I used to stick my torso out of my dad's silver Mercedes window, stretch my arms and… keh, pretend to fly all over the city.
What? I was really a passionate kid. Anyway, after our little meeting with the principal, I returned home and, I can recall that after that day, I stopped. I stopped flying with the cars and the city.
 
“Straight to your goddamn room!” his father's voice was strong, threatening but it didn't hit Inuyasha with full power, since he was off the car right before his father managed to pronounce `Straight'.
Inuyasha was sprinting to his house, his tiny kid legs taking him as fast as they could.
“Inuyasha! Don't wake your mother!” was the last thing he heard from a far. Too late bastard..
“MAMA!!” he rushed to his mother's room laughing all the way.
Inuyasha quickly opened the door “Mom!”
There she was folding up clothes, he smiled ran around the room almost screaming. “Ma! We ate this neat thing at lunch haha!” Inuyasha jumped on her bed and rolled to the other side “You stayed all day in bed?” giggles filled the room.
“Lucky you!” Inuyasha dashed towards his mother and wrapped his arms around her waist “I had dictation!” with his demonic strength he managed to tackle both of them to the bed. His mother was giggling all along, not to mention panting and coughing.
Both stayed quiet for a while, something is wrong. His smile was slowly wiping itself off his face.
A sigh broke his mother's lips, “Listen, my Inuyasha. A doctor came in today and...” He stood up, not letting her finish. “I made five mistakes and guess what?!”
“Nu-nu, be nice, I..” she was interrupted again.
“I got A in recitation. Wanna hear it?” Inuyasha was now fully up on his two feet and running around the room, his arms resembling the wings of a plane. He could hear how his mother sighed and laughed slightly.
Everything was bliss, or so he thought until he collided with a hard wall-like thing. His Father. Inuyasha could feel as his father was grasping his forearms very, very tightly.
“And I-I did something really dumb” he looked at his father.
Next thing he new ne was being dragged out of his mother's room, and last thing he heard was his mother sighing.
---------------------------
SLAM!
The door to his room was shut so hard; he swore he could hear the after cracks from it.
And there he was… kneeling on the toy filled floor, of his dark room. A heavy sighed parted his mouth.
 
Friends are like eyeglasses… yeah eyeglasses. They can make you look smart, ridiculous, or good. But get scratched and then bore the living shit out of you. Luckily, sometimes you get those hot RayBan shades.
 
Inuyasha was slipping on some, 3D paper eyeglasses over his eyes.
 
Me?... I had Kagome.
 
He started at his hands, and laughed.
 
Yeah, I would totally compare her to a pair of 3D shades. One side blue, one side red. Both colors that make you look things in different ways.
 
 
“Visit either you like, they're both mad” the story was flawlessly slipping through his mother's lips while Inuyasha had a death grip on the merry go round box.
“But, I don't want to go among the mad, Alice remarked”
He stared at her while she was reading his bedtime story. The box never leaving his hands
“'Oh, you can't help that', said the cat. `We're all mad here… I'm mad, you're ma-“ a small hand swiftly flew and covered the pages she was reading.
“Mom…” Inuyasha said seriously, as he sat up. “You going to die?”
She sighed and faked a small laugh “I don't read well?”
His voice broke a bit, but his serious tone remained “Are you going to die?”
“Yes.” Her whisper was so soft; he barely could hear it, even with his keen senses. “Like everybody” now it was her turn for her whisper voice to break a little.
He stared into his mother's eyes “Is it because of me? Because I'm naughty?” he handed her the merry go round box. “Here, ask me to do something intelligent, I swear I will! I'm game! Dare me mama!”
“Be quiet,” she whispered, caressing his hands over the box.
He shook his head “Not for that”
She reached and covered her son's ears “Cover your ears. Hard… harder.” Inuyasha's mother rested her chin on top of his head.
Then they both looked at each other, and she whispered, “Hear how I love you? Nothing else matters.” he could feel his mother's hands sliding gently down his cheeks
“Now, where were we?” she smiled and tried to find the page on the book.
“Kagome can do tricks! She can write with her teeth, that matters!” Inuyasha laughed and started to tickle her.
His mother was holding his hands down and laughing as well “It seems that Alice, nor your mother…” her agile hands began poke him in weak places “… interest you as much as Kagome!” Both mother and son laughed together, until... Loud coughs killed the happy atmosphere. Inuyasha looked at his mother worryingly. She waved it off
“She writes with her teeth eh?” she panted “Easy! And how about with her ears?
His amber orbs were wide as saucers and “Can you? And.. And flick spiders into mashed potatoes?” she was coughing again, but he held her up, “And rope-climb, blindfolded?”
She laughed but coughs interrupted her every now and then “Of coarse! With a glass on my head” she joked.
He poked her playfully. “No way! Mama you liar!” Inuyasha was smiling and laughing. But her coughs… got worse, and now they wouldn't stop. Once again his smile faded.
“Y-You think you are the first to play `Dares'?” she ran her hand through his silver hair carelessly, as if none of the previous coughing had happened. She leaned over and kissed his forehead lovingly.
“Now.. Goodnight.” She stood up and began to exit the door the coughs came again.
“Mama?” His mother turned around covering her mouth due to the coughs.
“What's the craziest thing you ever did?” Inuyasha asked.
“Fly” she smiled a bit.
“Fly? Fly where?!”
She looked to the side and made a funny grin “Across the sky”
There was a pause, then. “WOW! Show me! Come on fly, fly! Dare!” Inuyasha was now yelling hysterically.
She pointed at him and grinned, “Dare.”
She let out a breath and shook her shoulders. Meanwhile, Inuyasha's mouth couldn't be more open then it already was. His mother spread her arms, she took a deep breath now and he was dumb founded.
The women was standing on her toes and closing her eyes… “Later” she sighed.
“When?” he immediately retorted.
As she was walking out of the room and turning the light off, she leaned against the doorframe and smiled “Soon. I promise”
She was walking away, but suddenly her body shook and she started coughing madly, her husband came quickly and embraced her. Little did they know that Inuyasha's door wasn't fully closed? He could hear how his mother chocked on her coughs and his father whispering.
“The idea of reading him a story!” Inuyasha growled lowly.
“In your condition. You should be the one in bed” his father whispered. Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore. “Mom!” he called from his room
“Am I still real punished? Or just a little? Its just that…” then he locked gazes with his father. “… Kagome invited me to her Aunt's wedding and-“
Next thing he knew, his father shut the door on his face.
 
“Bastard…” he mumbled and went to bed.
 
 
So there I was, in her aunts wedding, with Kagome, under a table covered with this huge cloth. Wow, the hell was I thinking, hiding in a tight place with her? Back to the topic, there I was, and there was she… what happened? Ha! Enough.
 
There was Kagome, in her white dress, with her hair neatly down, with soft curls, and there was Inuyasha, with his dark grey tux and penny loffers. Both were sitting across from each other, grinning mischievously and watching as the couples danced across the hall. Not to mention they were hiding under the cake and dessert table. The merry go round box… was between them.
“Her dress is ugly” he frowned while examining her Aunt from under the table.
“Hm… So is her guy” Kagome made a face.
He chuckled “If I ever get married…”
“You'll say no at the altar? Dare or no Dare?” Kagome cleverly interrupted.
“Pfff! Dare” he smirked.
She leaned back and supported herself with her arms “What'll you be when you grow up?”
Inuyasha looked at her and smiled evilly “ A tyrant, or a pirate!”
“Cool, a tyrant!” Kagome's eyes were wide. “Your people subjugated?”
“Totally” the boy scoffed and gazed into the `horizon' “Then, no one will bother me for being a half-breed, and I'll have harem! Slaves, and torture every Thursday! Muahaha!”
Kagome giggled “Cool!” but then she realized what he said. “Wait… you shouldn't worry about what they say, half-breed or no half-breed. Beats me but if I were you I'd… I'd flip them off with this finger!” she said showing him the middle finger. “I heard that, this finger… Can insult the toughest man!”
Inuyasha looked at her funny “What are you saying?... Half-breeds have always been bugged at, there nothing a little girl like you can do about it.” He muffled “WOW really? I'm gonna show her my finger on the next class” he snickered.
“Wait Kagome?” he asked
“Hm?”
“What do you want to be when you grow up?”
The girl hesitated a bit “Well, uh… No its too dumb”
“Tell me!” he poked her
“You won't like it” she glanced at him.
He put his hands on his legs and narrowed his eyes “I told you! Tell me.”
Kagome stirred “I'd like to be a cream puff.” She looked to the side and daydreamed. “Creams puff with apricots, or even a plain one! Lukewarm…Mmmm at the bakery. In the window-”
“A cream puff?” he interrupted. “As in cake?”
“Duuh! What else?” she nudged him. “A cream puff is a cream puff” she replied cockily.
“A cream puff… “ he looked to the side and frowned, thinking.
Suddenly his eyes brightened and a devilish grin spread across his lips
“Yeah, of coarse! A cream puff! That's brilliant!”
She smugly smiled “So, lets play? I dare you to show me yours! HA!”
He sighed and groaned.. “Dare”
He kneeled in front of her, pulled his zipper down and scoffed.
Kagome made a face and raised a single eyebrow “Not… bad”
“Not bad!” he mocked her.
“That's why men earn more than women?” Kagome crossed her arms.
He smirked haughtily “Good workers! Have good tools!”
Now he pointed at her frowning “My turn! Show me yours!”
Kagome furrowed her eyebrows “No, that was my dare. You're not allowed to copy!”
Inuyasha smirked “Dare or no dare?”
Kagome rolled her eyes. Mumbling she lifted up her dress, Inuyasha was leaning in to see. She looked at him with a bored look and a flick noise filled under the table. “Dare..”
His eyes were wide. “What the… That's it?! Can't see a thing!”
Arrogantly Kagome laughed, “See, women are smarter than men” she flipped her hair.
Inuyasha glared at her, and then frowned. He started to lean over, making a slight pout. Kagome was glaring at him too; they were like 3 inches apart. The girl heard him slightly growl, just when she was about to protests, he brushed his nose against her and pecked her lips.
Both blushed and parted quickly.
“W-wow… So that's how it feels like” his tone was to laugh at.
Inuyasha was going to lean over for seconds just when Kagome backed away. “It's easier to just be friends. Hey can you show me your real ears? Dare or no Dare?”
“What?!” he was shocked
“Come on, we are best friends!”
Inuyasha hesitated; hanyous could hide some of their features with a special charmed ring. His mother was going to kill him if she found out.”
“Dare.” He sighed and slowly started to pull his tiny silver ring off. Slowly his human ears were disappearing and along came two perfect white triangles.
“Cool!!” Kagome smiled and tried to touch them. “How come you don't hide your granny hair either?” she teased and ran her fingers down his short hair silver hair. (AN:btw he has the typical boy cut when he is young)
“Hey!! Its not granny hair!” he poked her “I can only disguise certain things, but my hair and eyes give me away”
“Cute” she giggled and poked him back
He smiled sweetly at her and put the ring back on. Kagome caught his glance, blushed and looked away, out of nowhere she blurted “Pull the cloth? Dare or no dare?”
He chuckled “Dare!”
Suddenly there was a loud sound, of plates and cups and eating utensils falling to the marble floors.
“Harder!” Kagome hissed.
“Dare” Inuyasha laughed and pulled. “Now your turn Kagome, Harder!”
“Haha Dare!” she joined in the laughs and pulled the cloth with all her might.
Plop
There was a flat hitting sound, Mission accomplished. They had dropped the cake.
The both kids giggling their head off started crawling under the tables, avoiding all the chaos from the party. Inuyasha was crawling quickly, he looked like he was in the military, Kagome laughed watching her friend dissapear between the jungle of chairs and tables. “Inuyasha!” she called out.
“Hurry Kagome I'll wait for you outside!” he laughed
“Fine…” she mumbled and grabbing the merry go round box beside her.
Inuyasha was laughing outside the reception waiting for Kagome, when suddenly he spotted his father's silver Mercedes. Shit what does he want!
“Inuyasha! Inuyasha I was looking all over for you, I need you to come with me.” His father's tone wasn't good
“Wait.. what? Kagome is inside I can't just leave her!” he whined
“Not now, come on” His father was leading him to the car.
 
 
Beep.. beep.. beep.. beep.
 
I never hated anything more, than that sound… that sound, that warns you, saying that at any moment, your loved ones are going to pass away. Fucking machine.. but there she was. My mother hooked to that death alarm.
 
Inuyasha walked in, and saw the checkered hospital floor. His stare flew to the women in the hospital bed. His mother. Quickly he rushed to her “Mom!”
Slowly her head turned towards him, her gaze was empty-ish. It was painful to look at her. Inuyasha could hear as his dad came in.
His mother was having trouble breathing “My Inuyasha… My brave boy” her voice was barely a whisper.
“You'll get better!” he furrowed his eyebrows as he notices his voice breaking. “You'll.. Get better?” roughly he swiped a the back of his hand through his eyes. “Dare or no dare?”
She managed to smile sadly “My darling you don't have the box” she panted “Its.. Its not your turn to dare.”
He turned around immediately “I'll get it!!” but he ended up crashing with his father. “Stay Inuyasha” his tone was soft. “Kiss your mother..”
Inuyasha fought back a sob and gently placed himself ontop of his mother, embracing her gently. He leaned to his mother's ear and whispered; “I'll go later, then you'll show me how to fly” he stood up and locked eyes with her. She nodded, but it was so weak, he barely could see it…
