[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]
AN Bet you thought you would never see the day? Well the last time I wrote I was a junior in high school, now I'm a junior in college. Amazing huh! Lets see if my writing has improved.
Most of my errors are because I don't re read (oops) its just usually by the time I'm done I'm ready to be done so I just go post it on the internet. Bare with me please.
Send me some reviews and tell me what you think of Hemi. I have a few ideas for her and so I want to see what you think of her before I continue on. K thanks
My thoughts before you
Everybody says fool, fool, nothing you can do
Never gonna see her with the likes of you.
Kouga waded through the snow at two in the morning on foot, the broken arm made it impossible to steer and shift at the same time so this was his only option. He was six blocks out when he saw a familiar silver car pull up beside him, driving slowly to keep pace.
“Didn't I drop you off back that way?”
“Come to finish the job?”
“I did, but I decided to stalk you in stead. Want a ride?”
“No.”
“Ouch.” Hemi pushed one of her hands to her heart in mock agony. “Come on get in, it's cold, it's late, and you are injured.”
Her car slowed to a complete stop and the passenger door popped open. He was about to decline but she was right. He had been up since six the morning before and his arm ached in this weather. “All right.” He tossed the bag in and sat down.
“Where are you headed to?”
“The fire station. Do you know how to get there?”
“Yup, right next to the police station.”
“Been there before?”
Hemi smiled at him, “Not since I turned 21.”
Kouga's mouth dropped. This was something new to him; “Wait what?” he would have guessed a much younger age. Hemi just seemed to laugh at his response.
“Yeah I look about 16 don't I?” she pinched one of her cheeks. “I have such a baby face that I still look young.”
“I was starting to wonder if you went to high school. Thought I might lose my job for a minuet there.”
“And you still got in the car?”
Kouga smiled, “Well… I do like to live on the wild side.”
“Accepting a ride in the middle of the night from a dark stranger, you are wild.”
A silence ensued so Hemi pressed play on her stereo; Diamond Rio's Norma Jean Riley filled the air.
“You don't remember me at all do you?”
Kouga looked at her, eyebrow raised.
“Should I?”
“Should I?”
Hemi laughed, “Well, probably not, it was a long time ago.” She glanced over at him. “You initiated me my freshman year of high school. You kept throwing flour in my face until I sang the high school song correctly.”
Kouga's confusion turned into a devil grin. “That was you? No wonder you hit me with your car. We were brutal; hey didn't I run over your foot?”
Hemi nodded, “Yes, when we were pushing your truck up hill while you steered I got in the way of the tire. I'll have you know my pinky toe is still retarded looking from that.”
“Shit, I would have done more to me if I were you.”
“I've all ready got my revenge.” When Kouga didn't remember her grin turned to an evil one. “I was a senior in high school when you started your student teaching. You're quite clumsy.”
Realization dawned on him, “You were the one! You threw that basketball at me when I was showing the freshman track team how to do a hurdle! I broke my nose.”
“I know!”
The two were still laughing when she pulled up in front of the fire station. “Kouga, I have something I want to say.”
Kouga stayed seated, “What?”
It was now or never, Hemi took a deep breath, trying to ready herself for the speech she had wanted to deliver once gossip got around town about Inuyasha's return.
“I know this probably won't affect you in anyway, but I need to let you know. When you were a senior and I was a freshman I had the biggest crush on you. I mean I thought the sun shone from your ass. Truly I did, but no matter what I tried I couldn't get you to notice me. The only person you ever noticed was Kagome.”
Kouga tried to interrupt her but Hemi pushed forward, not giving him room.
“Then you know, the whole thing happened, Inuyasha left and Kagome went for you. You were happy, she was happy and that's good but now he's back and you have loved Kagome so long, but Kouga does she love you the same way?”
Kouga was a very irritable man, “What do you even know about it! Nothing! It's none of your damn business so don't think that because I knew you in high school you have any room to talk to me! About anything!”
“I'm not done!” Hemi shouted, “I got over my high school crush on you, when are you going to get over yours and stop making her suffer through your love! Kagome is a kind person. More kind than anyone! If you keep putting her through this she's going to make decisions that hurt her to make you happy!”
Kouga jerked the door open and slammed it shut in time for her to speed away so that she was nothing but tail lights on the snowy streets.
“How the hell does everyone know everything about my life!” Kouga shouted at her. “I hate small god damn towns!” he kicked a snow drift before marching inside.
Kouga went inside the fire station but he couldn't leave Hemi's words in the cold. The carried with him, Kagome was kind, but was she suffering to make him happy? Was all this his fault?

Kagome didn't have a response just yet. Inuyasha's lawyer was here. But he had just promised her that he wouldn't be taking Ky away from her.
"Kagome... did you hear me?" Sango was calling from her work to tell her this news and she wasn't supposed to make personal calls at all. If she was going to call than Kagome was going to listen!
"Yes, I heard you. I'm just confused is all, Inuyasha isn't going to go back on his word." Kagome grabbed her stomach, she felt like she was going to be sick.
There was something wrong with Kagome, she wasn't getting riled up like Kagome normally got. "Are you ok?"
"Kouga left me."
"Why?"
Kagome slumped to the floor, still holding her phone tightly to her ear. "Well he didn't come back from his hockey game until just now and its after midnight. Inuyasha brought me Ky and saw that I was worried so he stayed for a bit. Kouga came home and saw him and freaked out. He didn't even tell me what happened. He has a cast for heavens sake and he wouldn't talk to me."
"What did you say when he left?"
"Nothing, what could I say to him?"
"Don't leave... I need you... I love you... are you ok? Those are all very responses."
“I know I should have stopped him, but… what can I say to him. Kouga has me so selfless for me and my needs and I blow it all because I'm really stupid.”

“Sounds to me like you need to make a choice.” Sango was going to give it to her black and white. “Inuyasha or Kouga. Either way someone is going to end up hurt, there isn't a way of avoiding it so you need to do it now before Inuyasha gets married.”
Kagome's heart was beating away at her rib cage. It hurt to breath, to think, to do anything. The moments passed and finally after careful deliberation she breathed the word, “Kouga.”

Well that's it for now.
