All these things I hate
Upon hearing the voice, Kagome separated herself from Inuyasha's embrace and turned toward the voice only to see Kouga's hateful expression.
Kouga sent her a glare that would have killed, only to do something worse.
“You fucking whore”
A large percentage of the student body had gathered around the three seniors. They were all observing the group with keen interest. Everyone at the school knew about Kouga's over protectiveness, especially when it came to Kagome. So it was only natural that they want to witness the biggest fight of the century.
Kagome had been having the time of her life when she heard it or more accurately him. The boy that had completely crushed her heart just yesterday; whom she had given her heart to had the nerve to call her a whore.
Inuyasha however was not very happy at the moment. First wolf shit interrupts a very good kiss, and then he thinks he has the right to call Kagome a whore. His demon side was telling him to end the miserable wolf's existence, but he couldn't do that or else he would show his secret to the world.
No one had said a word since Kouga's outburst. So of coarse it was only natural that he is the one to break the silence.
“You must be desperate to hook up with the first mutt you see. If I knew you were going to miss me this much I might have made an exception if only to spare you the humiliation. You know what it is to go from a grade A man like me to a guy that is lower than scum himself, damn Kagome talk about lowering your standards.”
Kagome could not believe the hateful words that were coming out of his mouth. She understood that he was mad but he didn't have to say anything and everything that was passing through his thoughts.
Inuyasha was beyond pissed, which accounts for what happened next.
“Who the hell do you think you are talking to Kagome like that? I'll fuck you up for what you said.”
“This is actually quite ironic, considering the fact that I was telling you this not very long ago.”
“Well things change, which can easily be seen by looking at your sorry excuse of a friendship.”
“Fuck off; you don't know what you're talking about.”
“I might not know exactly what you two fought about, but I do know that no true friend would say a tenth of the things you said to Kagome. Apparently you aren't a very good friend.”
Kouga hadn't spared a glance her way since the argument started. As soon as her name left Inuyasha's lips, his eyes sought her out. He could have kicked himself right then and there for his stupidity. There she was with her eyes downcast and hers bangs shielding her from all eyes. Without a second thought Kouga ran to her. He kneeled right before her, reaching out a hand to push her bangs aside.
He looked into her misty blue orbs and felt his eyes tear up. He took his other hand to gently grasp hers and bring it to his own face.
“Honey I'm sorry, I got jealous. I didn't mean what I said please forgive me.”
Inuyasha didn't stop Kouga's actions because he wanted to see Kagome's reaction. He wasn't stupid; he knew Kagome could hold her own against any human or demon alike. He stood off to the side of Kagome for moral support and to claw Kouga off if the need arose.
Kagome lifted her hand to remove Kouga's hand from her face and took her other hand out of his grasp.
She looked him straight in eye before saying, “get up”
As he stood he tried to embrace her, only to have her put up her hand and back away.
“Kagome I am really sorry please forget everything I said I wasn't thinking clearly.”
“Kouga do me a favor and shut up. I don't want to hear any of your excuses. Why should I believe anything that you say? You want to know what your little display proved to me today.”
The look she gave him made him back up and whimper, which made everyone back up at the sight of a demon cowering from a human girl.
“It shows me how egotistical and cruel you can be at the drop of a dime.”
Kouga walked toward her again as if to grab her hand only to feel a slight tinge on his cheek. He lifted his hand to his cheek only to find a shallow cut on it. He looked at Kagome as if seeing her for the first time.
“You lost my trust and if you know me the slightest bit then you know that it is a very hard thing to gain back. So if you could do me a favor, step back and leave me alone before I do something that we both regret.”
Reaching out a hand, “please Kagome, I said I was sorry.”
“Sorry isn't enough this time. Kouga don't you think you've done enough, just leave me alone.”
Lifting her head once more to meet his eyes, Kouga was the one to turn away this time. He could not take the pain and hurt in her eyes. Her eyes were filled to the brim with tears, except at this point they were streaming down her face. He tried to grab her once more only to find Inuyasha in his way.
At the smell of her tears he knew he had to step in. She was a firecracker when she stood up to him, but she was still hurt and he wasn't going to let this idiot do anything else to make her feel worse.
“Get out of my way; this has nothing to do with you.”
Inuyasha just shook his head, “I think you should leave.”
“I said get out of my face, now!”
“Kouga I think you should listen to Kagome and leave before you regret it.”
“Whose gonna make me regret it, you sure as hell aren't”
“What the hell is going on here” Sango was trying to make her way through the crowd. When she was in the clearing she froze. She took one look around and turned toward the boys.
“What the hell did you do?”
Kouga was at a loss for words, “Sango, I'm sorry I didn't mean to.”
“Get the fuck out of here Kouga because I know you do not want to be anywhere near me when I figure out what you did.”
She made her way to Kagome as Kouga made his way out of the crowd, which was a lot harder due to the fact that everyone was unmoving and shoving him.
“Let's go Kagome”, Sango held her hand out for her to take. Kagome however wasn't paying attention to her, she was staring after Kouga.
Inuyasha knew that there was a lot going on between her and the wolf, but he would wait for her to tell him and now was not the time to decipher the look of longing on her face. Shaking his head of his thoughts, he got back to the situation at hand.
`Now for damage control'
Turning to face her, he put his hand on her shoulder and gave her a squeeze. “Come on Kagome lets get out of here.”
She looked at him and gave him a little smile. Looking at Sango she nodded. Following her out the door, with a trailing Inuyasha, they made their way toward the parking lot.
Sango had no idea what was going on. Apparently there was more to Kouga and Kagome's `friendship'. And Inuyasha is obviously the hero now, so time to find some answers.
She glanced over at Inuyasha who was already looking at her. She was about to open her mouth to ask a question when he shook his head as if he had already read her mind. He mouthed the word later and walked in silence with Kagome side by side.
“Well this is my car; do you guys need a ride?” Inuyasha was looking mainly at Kagome while he asked.
Kagome looked at him, and shook her head. “I can catch a ride with Sango.”
Then with out any type of warning, she leapt at Inuyasha hugging him with such force that it took both Inuyasha and Sango by surprise. It took Inuyasha a second to react and hug her back, putting his chin on the top of her head.
“Thank you so much Inuyasha”
“Don't worry about it the wolf had it coming.”
She pulled away from the embrace only to look at him and shrug.
“Well I guess that now you owe me a favor little miss sunshine.”
“Just because you were nice don't start getting any perverted ideas into that stupid head of yours.”
Inuyasha turned around to look at Sango. “Sango don't mistake me for that lecher you have for a boyfriend.”
Sango only huffed and started toward her car, leaving them alone.
“Well I guess I do owe you a favor, what do you want?”
Inuyasha had a huge smile on his face, which made Kagome smile. “Well since you did ask I was wondering if …”
“You Hentai!”
“What the hell I haven't even said anything.”
“No but you were thinking about it.”
“About it” He added with a smirk. “Now who's a hentai?”
“Shut up” she said smacking him in the arm. “I'll see you later.”
“Wait a second where do you think you're going?”
Kagome was already rolling her eyes, “bye Inuyasha I will see you tomorrow.”
“Not even a goodbye kiss, man you suck.”
She laughed and walked away.
“Hey remember you owe me a favor!”
“Yeah yeah” she said waving her hand.
Inuyasha just shook his head and got into his car.
Kagome made her way to Sango's car, finally spotting it. She opened the door and got in only to wish she'd taken a ride with Inuyasha.
“So what the hell happened between you and Inuyasha?”
Kagome rolled her eyes at the line of questioning. “Nothing happened”
“Yeah don't even try to wiggle your way out of this one; there is no way its going to work this time. Come on at least tell me what happened with Kouga, I mean he is known for being over protective of you but that little display was pushing it.”
Oh god this is what Kagome feared would come out in this conversation, she knew she had to come clean. Bracing herself she went in for the kill.
“Sango, Kouga and I are more than just friends.”
Sango's jaw was about to fall off her face, but then she noticed Kagome squirming.
“Kagome, how much more than just friends are we talking about?
