Chapter 8: I Want You!

 

Kagome looked at herself in the mirror then turned to her friend Sango. Sango had agreed to go with her on the date with Hojo. Personally, Kagome didn't trust Hojo. He seemed too nice. “Miroku is coming too,” Sango said blushing.

 

“So are you two an item now or what?” Kagome asked.

 

“I guess, I mean he calls me his girlfriend and all,” Sango said getting embarrassed.

 

“It's nothing to be embarrassed about Sango. I'm happy for you. When is he coming?” Kagome asked.

 

“He's going to meet us at the club,” Sango replied. Kagome's phone began to ring and she looked at the number. It was from a phone booth.

 

“Hello?” she asked. She heard sniffing on the other end.

 

“Hi, is this Kagome?” a little voice asked.

 

“Yes it is. Is that you Shippo?” she asked.

 

“Yeah,” Shippo said and sniffed again.

 

“What's wrong sweetie? Where are you?” Kagome questioned getting worried.

 

“I'm at the train station. Can you come get me?” he replied.

 

“Why are you there?” she asked.

 

“Inuyasha never came to pick me up from school so I got to the train station and now I don't know what to do,” he cried.

 

“Okay, just don't move and I'll be there in five minutes,” she said and hung up. She grabbed her bag and ran out of the door.

 

“Kagome where are you going?!” Sango yelled after her.

 

“Sorry, but something came up! Can you tell Hojo that I can't make it?” Kagome asked stopping at the front door.

 

“Alright,” Sango said.

 

Kagome ran out of the building and towards the train station. She ran all the way there without stopping. How could Inuyasha do that to Shippo? Shippo came into her view and she picked up her pace. She ran over to him and dropped to her knees in front of him.

 

“Are you okay Shippo? Is anything hurting on you?” Kagome asked looking him over. Shippo shook his head and began to cry. He ran into Kagome's arms and sobbed.

 

“I was so scared! Why didn't Inuyasha come to get me?” Shippo cried.

 

“I don't know, you can come home with me for a while until I call Inuyasha and yell at him,” Kagome said picking up Shippo. She began to walk towards her house until she noticed that Inuyasha's house was a few blocks away. “You know what? I think I'll go chew Inuyasha out in person.”

 

“Okay, but can I stay with you for the night? I don't want to stay with Inuyasha now,” Shippo stated.

 

“Of course you can honey,” Kagome smiled and walked over to Inuyasha's building. She walked up the steps and reached his door. She rang the doorbell until someone answered. It was Kikyo. She stood there wearing nothing, but one of Inuyasha's shirts.

 

“Kagome? What are you doing here?” Kikyo asked.

 

“Where's Inuyasha?” Kagome demanded. Inuyasha walked up to the door and his face fell instantly.

 

“Fuck! I forgot Shippo!” Inuyasha cursed. Kagome pushed her way into the apartment and went to Shippo's room. She put Shippo down on the bed and began to pack some clothes for him.

 

“What do you think you're doing?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“I'm taking Shippo for the night. He said that he wanted to stay with me for now,” Kagome said.

 

“Like hell you are! You can't take him away from me!” Inuyasha growled.

 

“It's just for a night or two because apparently you are to busy screwing around to remember your own son! I am not going to let stay here while you're fucking Kikyo in the next room!” Kagome yelled.

 

Inuyasha stood silent for a second trying to keep his cool. He grabbed Kagome's hand to stop her from packing Shippo's things. Kagome looked up at him, glaring daggers at him. “Don't touch me! I'm taking Shippo for the night whether you like it or not!” Kagome shouted.

 

Inuyasha let Kagome go and sighed. “Fine, go ahead and take him. I'm not going to stop you.”

 

Kagome kept on packing and grabbed Shippo's bag. “Let's go,” she smiled at Shippo. He nodded and grabbed her hand.

 

“When did you get a son?” Kikyo asked.

 

“That's none of your business,” Inuyasha stated walking to get a glass of water.

 

“Enjoy it while it lasts Kikyo. Oh, and Inuyasha, you better not hurt her!” Kagome called before leaving with Shippo.

Kagome awoke to a noise in her kitchen. She sat up and looked around. What was that? She stood up and grabbed her baseball bat. She slowly made her way to the guest room and found Shippo still sleeping. She made her way to the kitchen holding the bat tightly.

 

She looked around the corner and saw Inuyasha in her kitchen, trying to do something. Kagome sighed in relief and walked into the kitchen. She raised the bat and whacked him in the back of the head.

 

“Ow! What the hell?! It's me, Inuyasha!” he yelled.

 

“I know it is. How did you get in?” she asked.

 

“I looked under your mat for a spare key and sure enough there it was,” he smirked.

 

“That's called breaking and entering, jackass,” she snapped.

 

“Yeah, but you kidnapped my son so now we are even,” he said and stuck his tongue out at her.

 

“Don't act like we're friends. What happened to Kikyo?” Kagome asked.

 

“Why do you care?” he asked.

 

“I care because Kikyo is my friend. I don't want to have to clean up your messes,” she stated.

 

“She left me after she found out that Shippo was my son,” he sighed.

 

“That sucks. She never did like kids,” she said.

 

“Yeah well you totally took away a hot night of sex for me,” he said sitting down across from her and put a cup of coffee in front of her.

 

“You ruined my date last night, so we're even,” she smiled sweetly.

 

“You had a date? That's hard to believe,” he teased. Kagome just sipped at her coffee.

 

“Why do you do that?” Kagome asked.

 

“Do what?” Inuyasha said confused.

 

“Shut everyone out. You never let anyone in. Why?” she stated.

 

“Why do you let everyone in thinking that they won't hurt you? We are different so it doesn't matter,” he said.

 

“It does to me! I want you to trust me! I know I said that we weren't friends before, but I want to be friends with you. I want you to be able to talk to me,” she sighed.

 

“I do trust you. I just can't trust myself sometimes,” he whispered.

 

“Why is that?” she asked.

 

“It's nothing. Where's Shippo?” he asked.

 

“Sleeping the last time I checked,” she answered. Inuyasha stood up and walked over to Kagome. He stood her up and held her in his arms. Kagome pushed against his chest getting confused by what he was doing.

 

“What are you doing Inuyasha?” she asked.

 

“I missed you,” he mumbled.

 

“What are you talking about? I didn't go anywhere,” she stated.

 

“Last night, when I was with Kikyo all I could think about was you. I don't know if this means anything, but I didn't sleep with her. I was about to, but I stopped and then you came,” he explained. Kagome gasped and closed her eyes. She felt tears come to her eyes and she let out a sob.

 

“Why are you crying?” he asked confused. Kagome let out sobs that sounded like they were coming from a child. She just felt so confused that she had to cry. Inuyasha had no idea what to do. Should he comfort her or let her cry? He finally just leaned down and quieted her mouth with his.

 

Kagome's eyes widened and her tears kept falling. Why was he doing this to her? It just wasn't fair. She pushed him away and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand. “Stop it! Just stop it!” she cried.

 

“What's wrong?” Inuyasha asked her.

 

“I can't play your game! You made me really confused to the point that I'm crying over nothing! I almost went on a date with someone I didn't even like because I thought you were screwing Kikyo! What am I supposed to think? What exactly am I to you?” she shouted hitting his chest every time she asked a question.

 

“I'm sorry Kagome. I really am. I'm just as confused as you are. One minute I hate your guts and the next I want you in my arms. I know that sounds stupid, but it's true. Please just give me a chance. The reason I didn't want to pretend to be your boyfriend for two weeks because I was scared that I wouldn't want to let you go afterwards and now I realize that I couldn't let you go from the start. Please Kagome, give me a chance to prove that I'm worthy of being with you,” Inuyasha begged.

 

“You want to be with me?” Kagome whispered in shock.

 

“I've never wanted anything more than I want you. What do you say? Will you give me a chance?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“No, I won't give you a chance,” she stated and with that Inuyasha's whole body slumped forward. “I'll give you more than that because I want you too.”

 

Inuyasha immediately perked back up and he smiled brightly at her. “I'm so glad. I guess we should start acting like a couple from now on,” he suggested.

 

“If you insist, then I'll play along,” she smiled wiping away her tears. This was going to be fun.
