Chapter 1- Messages
Inu Yasha had had the same dream every day since he left Tokyo.
And every night he would wake up in a cold sweat.
…Today was no exception…
Black covered his eyes and he was blinded. The world was dark and he heard her voice. But he could barely tell if it was hers. She never cried before. His hearing was plunged into a sea of her cries resounding, pounding… A vision of her finally appeared to him, sitting at her cabin window, with her knees to her chest, her eyes like blood-stained swords used in many battles. Her ebony locks gently curling around her compacted figure. Her eyes, scarcely visible, were like switchblades piercing at his heart. How could he leave her?
Kagome…
He reached out to touch her but he never had the chance. As soon as he made contact with her shoulder, his hand went right through. Caught off guard, he fell forward and was consumed by light.
He was in a bright alley way. Everywhere he turned, he would be lost in the white light. He suddenly heard the sound of a giggling girl. The soft innocence in her voice flooded his ears until he felt as if he would drown. Inu Yasha had to find her. He ran and ran closer and closer still. But he was never close enough. The laughing only grew louder and there was nothing he could do to make it stop. A voice whispered echoed out from the luminous abyss. Two words that still wrenched at his broken heart…
We're through…
~*~
Inu Yasha opened up his apartment and walked in. It had been a crippling day and there was a lot of homework to do. He tossed his heavy school bag to the side. Inu Yasha opened up his textbook and his notebooks, clicked open his pen and prepared to write.
He stared at the jumble of numbers and acronyms sprawled across the pages… with images of a raven haired girl...
He shook his head in attempt to bring him back to reality and then looked at his notebook. Blank with the exception of blue lines running horizontally across the page without the burden of letters… sobbing in her despair…
Taking in a huge breath he brushed back his silver hair. He exhaled, narrowing his amber eyes at question number 1. He carefully read through the question seeing only words, but never really understanding… the sound of innocent giggling…
Exasperated, he lifted the textbook and literally stuck his nose in the book making sure that he read and saw only Question number one… knowing they're through…
"Aww, hell. Screw this," he cursed. There was no escaping her-and he knew it. No matter how much he drowned himself in work, in school work, there was no escaping her. He plopped backward onto his sofa, gazing around his dark apartment.
It was still as plain as before for he hadn't had time to do much with it. Between his father's death and him taking over the company there was no time for anything but school. But it was the fact that it was painfully empty that made him remember. He furrowed his eyebrows remembering the painful message he received when he arrived in New York.
*Flashback*
He had just arrived at his new apartment with the few belongings that really mattered at the time-his guitar, his Metallica collectionand his T-shirt with his band's name on it;"Crimson", it read. So many memories he had with that band. Even before they were a band they were good friends, but he was especially close with one of them. Her name was Kagome.
She was his best friend despite his father's disapproval. His mother as usual had the exact opposite opinion; she had hoped to see the two married. When they were young they would gag in disgust at the mere thought, but as the years progressed, it seemed more and more a possibility. Three years before today they fell in love at fourteen. It was their twoyear anniversary today and Inu Yashafelt terrible about having to leave her. He wrote a letter for her and placed it on the pillow on his side of the bed. With it, he left his apartment numberand his address. Placing his last kiss on her soft cheek, she stirred. Taking in a deep breath and then exhaling, she snuggled closer into her pillow.She had no idea how beautiful she was.He turned to red headed boy next to him.
They walked toward the door out. When they reached the exit, Inu Yashaturned to face his friend of ten years.
"Hey, Ron. I want you to make sure that this gets to her," he told him.
"No prob." he answered."It must mean a lot to you." Inu Yashasmiled and nodded. What would they do without Ron? They stood there in silence until it was broken by Ron.
"Why are you leaving again?" He asked. Inu Yashalooked away.
"It's my dad. He's not doing so well. The doctors say he has a brain tumor…" he trailed off. Inu Yashapractically never saw his father and when he did see him, he always greeted him with disdain. It was now that he felt more regret than ever than before for all those times.
"Hah!" Ron exclaimed, "I told you he was brain dead!" he said in attempt to cheer Inu Yashaup. This was a little inside joke between the two, originatingfrom the time when his dad got drunk. But this was no laughing matter.
"Shut up!" Inu Yashayelled, "That's not funny anymore!" Immediately Ron quit laughing.
"Sorry…" he apologized. "Pals?" he inquired, hoping that they were still friends. Inu Yashalooked at him and smiled.
"Pals," Inu Yashaconcluded as they hugged.
"I'm going to miss you," Ron said finally.
"I'll miss you too."
It was a rainy day, and it poured with a vengeance.He looked around his new home. It was bigger than his Tokyo apartment but it was so empty. He walked to the kitchen area. A phone and an answering machine werealready set up along with a fridge and a stove. A red light flashed on the answeringmachine. He put down his guitar case down and walked toward the machine. He pushed the play button to hear a familiarly angry voice on the line.
"I can't believe you!" It was her…
"How could you leave me when I need you the most?" He furrowed his eye brows at this. He didn't know she was going through a hard time."You irresponsible idiot! I don't ever want to see your face again! As much as you deserve it, I don't have time for revenge, and Iam most certainly not going to waste my breath on you again…" there was a long pause after this. Leaving Inu Yashato wonder what she was talking about. He knew thatthere was more to this, and her silence kept him in suspense. Her voice came back on more calm than before.
"We're through…"
~*~
Who would have thought that a mere two words could hurt so much? They rang in his head over and over. Her voice, malicious and vengeful filling his ears with the most painful two words in the English language when they were together… we're through… we're through… they're through… she's through… he's through. The ceiling began to leak, allowing water droplets to clash to the floor but not before trickling down his cheek. The icy drops numbed his stunned face. It was all he could feel. Cold… Dark… Lost…
Either that or he really was crying.
A/N: ;_; >Tear< how sad… poor Inu.
