My Thoughts Before You

 

Take Me Back To Old Wyoming

 

He wasn't looking forward to telling Kikyou this, but he figured he better get it over and done with, especially since he was leaving in three hours for the airport and would be off to Salt Lake City, Utah. He knew it wasn't wise to keep things like flying half way across the country from his Fiancé, but the man hadn't had time.

 

Inuyasha paused in the hall that lead towards the back room of the vet clinic. Now that wasn't exactly true, he had been too preoccupied to admit anything just yet. Now the man was in love with Kikyou with every part of his soul. He knew he was, but he was about to return home. Home to Evanston Wyoming, yes his brother and his friends were there, but so was his first love. Kagome.

 

There was the root of the problem, and he didn't need to pay a shrink $500.00 to figure it out. Kagome, though their love had died since he left home and she moved away with out a trace as to where she was now a constant thing on his mind. Not that he desired to be with her anymore, he was just afraid to go home and tell his family and friends and see her. That was going to be one hell of a reunion that's all he had to say. There were two possibilities 1) she could still be moved out of town and not back there or 2) he would see here.

 

If things came down to it and choice number two happened he hoped that they could see one another as friends after all of the stuff they went through together.

”Hey hot stuff.”

 

Inuyasha looked up, he just realized he was staring at the floor in the hallway. He had probably been there for five minuets or so. “Hey.” He said, pulling his hands out of his jean pockets. “Are you busy?”

Kikyou shook her head, wiping her hands off on a towel. He couldn't believe how considerable lucky he was to have Kikyou. No matter what she was wearing or what she did with her hair she was beautiful. He was used to seeing her in her business dresses, hair pulled back and cell phone attached to her hand. He knew that was what he got for dating a reporter who was a front-page writer for the New York Times.

 

Right now though, she looked touchable, wearing her jean pants that fell lightly on to her hips and clung to her until her knees where a slight boot cut flare was formed. She had on a forest green t-shirt that said `Volunteer for the Happy Homes Animal Shelter' Her long black tresses were pulled into a loose ponytail, and those sweet unknowingly seductive brown eyes held his as she walked towards him. Placing her arms around his neck she pulled him down for a kiss.

 

“Missed you.” She whispered as she separated from him

Yup, Inuyasha was a lucky man. “Dido.” He whispered. He held her for a moment longer before she pulled from his grasp, “What are you doing here?” he heard her ask.

 

Ut oh, now was the moment of truth. “I came to tell you that I have to go back to my home for a little while. To straiten a few things out.”

Kikyou raised an eyebrow, a little confused. “Will you be by for dinner then?”

Inuyasha shook his head, “No, I mean back to my hometown. Evanston Wyoming. I need to tell my brother that I'm getting married, and my friends as well.”

 

“Oh.” She mouthed silently, she looked a little downcast but put on a smile all the same. “When will you be back, soon I hope.”

Inuyasha nodded, “yeah I'll be back here shortly. After two weeks I think. I need to take care of quite a few things.” Like searching out Kagome. He thought, and then shunned himself, he shouldn't be having these thoughts so close to his wedding. No he told himself, these weren't thought of cheating. Inuyasha just wanted to test himself before it was too late. If he could stare at Kagome and hear her soft voice and didn't feel anything he could make it through this marriage without so much as glancing at another woman until he was 80.

 

She was pouting, he hated it when she pouted. Every time she did that with her lips all he could think about was kissing her. Damn it, and the sad thing was she hadn't a clue what she did to him. “Two whole weeks. Are you sure you can't just leave for one?”

”Well, it's been a long time since I've seen my brothers. As the old saying goes water under the bridge, but well, our bridge is still flooded.” Sometimes poor Inuyasha still acted like an old fashioned Wyoming-er. She was still pouting, after careful deliberation in his head Inuyasha decided he needed to pick his battles and he didn't want to win this one if he ever got to win any. “Alright I'll be back sooner.”

Kikyou silently glorified in her own little victory. She was pleased with it. “So I'll see you in a week?”

 

Inuyasha gave her the nod. “If not sooner. I mean, someone needs to cook and do my laundry right?”

She hit his chest playfully. “I'm not your little woman, not yet at least.”

”Yeah, but you will be. Just as soon as I get back to you.” He gave her one soft kiss goodbye and headed out the door and back to his silver sports car. Speeding to the airport.

Kagome stared up at the clock, almost 5 o' clock and she was ready to go home. Kouga had promised to make her a stake for dinner. She was craving one so badly she could almost imagine the piece of meat melting in her mouth. She wanted it rare, just to the point where the critter couldn't moo anymore. Oh and scalloped potatoes, and A1 stake sauce, with broccoli and cheese. Kouga sure could cook.

 

“Kagome?”

 

Kagome sat to full attention, had she been drooling? “Uh, yes?” she asked trying to figure out what was going on. She looked over at her colleague, giving her a vague smile; it was the best she could muster after coming out of her near food comatose.

 

“You seemed pretty happy about something, dreaming about that handsome Fiancé of yours?”

 

Kagome laughed, “Actually if you want to know the truth, I was dreaming about his cooking. That man can make the best stake, and since I skipped my lunch today I'm starved.”

Sandra laughed at the young receptionist. “Hmm, a hunk that can cook. You sure did luck out didn't you?”

 

Kagome's smile faltered a little but it was soon back in full. “Sure did.”

”Well, how about you get home to that man of yours, and I'll finish up here. Tell your son that I said Hey, and that he can come here and get suckers any time he wants.”

Kagome shook her head in the negative, “He doesn't need anymore influence from you Kouga is enough.” She picked up her brown and white bag, after stuffing some papers into it she slung it over her right shoulder and headed out the door.

”See you Monday.”

 

It had been three years and a baby since Kagome had seen Inuyasha, the man who had helped in conceiving it. So why, as she walked out of the County Complex, her place of work, did she begin to think of him out of the blue?

 

It was almost as if a wave had hit her, a wave of old memories filling her with anticipation. She shook the feeling off, this usually happened to her when she least expected it and nothing ever came from it. The only problem was, this time it was a little harder to shake.

 

Kagome slid her car key into the lock and climbed inside the white Grand Am, the Hawaiian dancer swayed her hips as the door slammed. That's when she heard it, he cell phone. She had put her purse in the back seat.

”Darn.” She whispered as she leaned into the back and reached for the green corduroy purse that had been given as a gift to her from Sango. She pulled out the phone, which she called the green shit brick because the reception on it sucked. It was large, heavy, and well green. Pretty shitty wouldn't you say? The only good thing was that it had been a cheap phone.

 

“Hey babe.” She said into it. Kouga was calling her.

”Hey, I forgot to get some corn and it's the only thing Ky will eat. You mind getting some?”

”Sure don't, see you in a few.”

They two hung up and she headed to Jubilee. Kouga and her had been together ever since Ky had been born. He had proposed to her shortly after and she had accepted, when he would ask about a date she said she just wasn't ready yet. There were always different reasons. Ky was too young to be left with his family for their honeymoon, she didn't have enough money to have the kind of wedding she had always dreamed of. She couldn't ask for time off work.

 

The last excuse she came up with Kouga had said “Yeah well excuses are like assholes. Everyone's got one right?” She felt terrible for all that now. It wasn't Kouga; no he had been the best thing that ever happened to her. He was there for her, he claimed the baby as his own. No one even knew it was Inuyasha's son. She hadn't wanted a scandal and since she lived in a small town, had Kouga not stepped forward to somewhat save her reputation it would have been one. She just couldn't love Kouga the way he deserved. She knew that he needed a woman to make him happy and she was positive she was the last person that could make him happy.

 

“Hey Kagome.” Said one of the clerks.

”Hey.” she called back over her shoulder, just before she rounded the corner towards the vegetable aisle she saw him.

 

Her purse dropped to the ground, much as her jaw did. “Oh my god” she mouthed. Seeing Inuyasha standing there at the snack bar talking to their old high school friend Bankotsu. He hadn't seen her yet! She dropped to the ground just as her turned around to look at the commotion.

 

She couldn't let him see her! No! She had worked so hard on forgetting him. “Damn stupid jerk, always coming in at the wrong moment doing the wrong thing.”

 

“Sounds like a real asshole.” Inuyasha had came to her side and handed her the green cell phone. He hadn't realized it was she. She glanced up shyly. Her brown eyes clashed with his golden ones.

”Kagome.” His mouth dropped as hers had.
