Sedirea

Summary: Inu/Kag. Someday, somewhere Kagome began a new life, but the thing with luck was that she never had any. That was why it was no surprise that somehow her old life was going to catch up on her in the form of a cocky roommate and his girlfriend. It was obvious; gods hated Higurashi Kagome.

Kagome sighed as she felt a gentle breeze swept across her naked nape, cooling her slightly. She had swept her long hair into a bun, but still some stubborn strands made their way out of the bun and teasingly tickling her skin along with the gentle wind. A flush of exertion enchantingly spread from her neck across to her smooth cheeks. She puffed out sweet scenting air from her mouth as she lifted a heavy carton through the narrow stairs.
 
“Some dorm this is. Three elevators and they're all broken.” She muttered grumpily to herself.
 
Finally she reached the fifth floor and proceeded to look for her room.
 
“Five hundred four… five… six… finally!” Kagome groaned in relief.
 
She put down the carton and knocked on the door softly. A feminine voice answered her and opened the door.
 
“Kagome! You're here!” The girl who had opened the door pulled Kagome in a tight hug.
 
Kagome returned the hug and laughed happily. “Mai-chan, I'm so happy to see you!”
 
“Let me take a closer look.” She twirled Kagome around, and then she gasped. “Kagome! I would've never recognized you! You look so different!”
 
Kagome smiled sheepishly. “Do I look that bad?”
 
“Kagome!” Mai smacked her arm playfully. “You look stunning, more beautiful than I imagined you'd be.” She continued to look at Kagome, and gradually her eyes began to change. A tint of jealousy seeped in a bit.
 
“Mai?” Kagome squirmed under her stare.
 
“Kagome, you're really changed.” She went on murmuring as if she was in daze.
 
“Mai?” Kagome tugged on her sleeve and Mai finally snapped out of her daze.
 
“Sorry, Kagome.” Mai smiled at her apologetically. She spotted the carton on the floor and reached towards it. “Here, let me help you with that.”
 
“Thanks, but I'll manage.” Kagome lifted her carton and stepped inside the room. The interior of the dorm room was quite sizable despite what it looked from the outside. The entrance opened the way to the kitchen connecting to the living room without separation. On the left side of the room stood two doors, and on the other right stood only one.
 
Kagome looked around her and smiled. “So, which is whose?”
 
“Actually, Kagome-chan.” Mai clapped her hand together. “I'm not going to live here.”
 
Kagome blinked.
 
“You remember when I told you about my new boyfriend? Well, last week he asked me to move in with him, and I said yes.”
 
Kagome blinked again.
 
“And don't worry about finding a new roommate. I already found one for you. You remember Kin, a friend of mine? I used to talk and talk about him. Well, he was my first crush actually, but things would never work out; he was a player, a bad one, so I'll be careful if I were you, Kagome-chan, but actually on the friendship-level he really is a nice guy-”
 
“You're telling me; I'm going to live with a guy?” Kagome cut in abruptly.
 
“Yes. Is that a problem?” She gazed searchingly at Kagome. “I get it! Hojo-kun would mind, right? You don't have to worry about that.”
 
“No, Mai-chan. That's not what I'm trying to say. Hojo and I broke up a month ago. His parents wanted him to study abroad, and I just thought a long-distance relationship won't work with us.” Kagome explained hurriedly. Although the story was far from complete, she tried to summarize it without mentioning the actual complications.
 
“So it had nothing to do with Hojo. It's just that I'm uncomfortable living with a guy. You understand that, do you?” Kagome smiled apologetically.
 
“Kagome-chan.” Mai scratched her head awkwardly. “I'm terribly sorry; I should've informed you first, but he already moved in.” She pointed on the door on the left side of the room. “He took the room next to the bathroom.”
 
“Excuse me?” Kagome's eyes went wide. “You gave him the room next to the bathroom? Mai-chan, why can't I have that room?”
 
“There's nothing I can do, Kagome. He stubbornly asked me for it. I pointed out that since you're the girl you should have the room, but then he ranted on and on about what a sexist I am, and the next thing I knew, I just throw him the key for that room.” Mai took Kagome's hands in hers and looked at her beseechingly. “Kagome-chan, please forgive me?”
 
The only thing indicated that Mai had known Kagome for a long time, was the smart way she made her compliant to the case. Kagome's gentle heart would never allow any pleading from anyone; it melted immediately the moment Mai took both her hands.
 
“It's okay. Then I guess I just have to adjust.” Kagome let out a tiny smile.
 
“Great! Now let me help you unpack. Is that all your stuff?” Mai pointed at her carton.
 
“No, actually there's going to be more, but I have no idea how to bring them up here; the elevators are out of order, all three of them.” Kagome shrugged in distress.
 
The sound of someone opening the bedroom's door quietly was lost on the two girls while they talked to each other. That was why they never expected to hear someone suddenly saying something.
 
“You could've taken the elevator for containers, stupid.”
 
Mai smiled benignly the moment she caught his sight, but Kagome, who had her back turned to the stranger, froze.
 
There was no way she was hearing that voice.
 
~*~
 
It began when she was of the age of fifteen; she was pulled through the Bone-eater's well by a demon and traveled back to Japan's Sengoku Jidai.
 
She then met a half demon named Inuyasha.
 
~*~
 
She turned slowly to face the owner of the very much familiar voice.
 
~*~
 
Then there was Kikyo.
 
~*~
 
She finally faced him.
 
~*~
 
And then, in addition, there was her heart.
