Night of the Wolf
SilverYoko/NightBlackWolf
She didn't really remember much of that night. She assumed she didn't really need to. All she needed to know was the outcome and as she sat in the white, sterile room her stomach plummeted. She felt horribly sick and hoped she wouldn't end up making a fool of herself in front of the doctor.
He looked so serious and calculating as he stared at the white sheet of paper, making noncommittal noises in the back of his throat now and then. She wanted to shake him, or at least scream at him to tell her. Tell her what was wrong, tell her why she was getting chubby and no matter how hard she worked out why it wouldn't go away. She wanted to cry when he turned those sympathetic eyes on her, his expression softening into one of a concerned elder. A tired smile tugged at the corners of his mouth, the lines deepening further there as tears finally blurred her vision.
No...
"--Three months already--"
Please...
"--The father--"
No...
Her mind had immediately slammed into denial, her future coming down around her ears. Her body tingled like her limbs had fallen asleep, she couldn't get enough air and she wanted to go home, curl against her mother and apologize till the end of time. There were so many things she had planned, so many things she wanted to do. She was still a child herself...how could this have happened? How could she have let this happen? Where had she gone wrong...?
Well she had known where she went wrong. Accepting that first drink because that first drink lead to another and ending it at around ten. Nothing came to her aside from the blurred face of the girl who had offered her the drink. Everything else was a blur. Well...not everything. That morning she remembered everything so clearly. So very clearly.
Three Months Prior
"Really, now, Sango this is just ridiculous! We could easily stay home and watch movies. We don't need to go out every weekend."
"No, dear, we don't. But we can. And we are," The last word was punctuated with a feral grin as Sango jumped her from behind, wrapping her legs around Kagome's middle.
Currently the two eighteen year olds were swaying down the steeps of the Higurashi shrine. School was out and they were going to college soon after the summer ended. So they (Inuyasha, Sango, Miro, Shippo, and Sess) all had made a pact to see as much of each as they could stand this summer. Not that it took long for either of them to grow tired of Miroku.
So now Sango had gotten wind of some party thrown by a schoolmate of theirs and had promptly dragged Kagome off. She hadn't told the guys, telling Kagome it was a girls only this time. Kagome didn't particularly care for this girl but Sango was excited about it so she tried to deal with it. It wasn't really that hard either once she made it to the party, there were plenty of people who she did get along with and all in all she had, had a great time to start out with.
Sango was showing off her flirting skills in the corner, a group of guys around her. The girl always reeled in the guys, her personality was infectious outside the safety of Kagome or Sango's home. No one had yet to guess that her brother was terminally ill and the girl was slowly breaking inside. So she grinned and laughed and joked outside the sterile hospital walls, away from the needles and the pain and tears.
Kagome had situated herself in a comfy arm chair, nursing a fruit punch in one hand and an ice pack in the other. Some drunken girl had elbowed her in the eye, Kagome not seeing the flailing arms to duck in time. Sitting in the corner wasn't so bad, she could watch the people who were trashed make greater fools of themselves in relative safety.
Three drinks spilled on her and an hour later she was more than ready to go home. Her mood was in one of the worst funks she could remember so when the smiling girl offered her the amber liquid she felt no qualms about smiling and saying, "Thank you." The first few sips tore at her throat, tears sprung to her eyes as she coughed and hacked. Before she knew it one drink turned into another and another and another...
Doctor's Office--Present
"The father, I assume you'll be telling him? Things will go much smoother if he were to take part in the pregnancy."
She smiled through the nausea; her stomach churning painfully, bile on the back of her tongue, "That's impossible, doctor, the father is... he's dead."
A/N: Chapters will get longer. This is just a short beginning to get started.
