That's Just The Way It Is

Chapter 4

Depression

<><><><><><><><> ;<><>

Kagome slowly opened her eyes as her head for some reason was hurting more then anything right now. She looked out the window and noticed it was night time.

"Oh no, Sango!" She said aloud and was about to get out of bed when a hand was placed on her shoulder. She looked to her left and saw a smiling Sango rubbing her eyes.

"Hey there." She almost whispered. "I've been for some time now and I fell asleep."

"How did you get in?" Kagome asked remembering she had locked the door.

"C'mon, this is me we're talking about." Kagome chuckled. Sango was yet again also known to be the best lock picker in all of Tokyo. " So want to tell me what happen?" She asked, making her way over to the bed and sitting beside Kagome. Kag shivered and brought the blankets around her.

"Well it started after we talked. I went to look for Inuyasha, but didn't find him anywhere, later I found he was on an errand." Sango nodded and waited for her to continue. "So I decided to go look through the city, I know slow, but I did any way, after that he picks me up and we're driving in his car and he starts to talk about how my father wants me in the business." She waits to see Sango's reaction to that, but nothing and she wonders why. "Hw then talks about things that get me suspicious and so I bring up about yesterday, how my father killed that man and he says how I had ran away."

"So that means…?" Kagome nods her head.

"That it wasn't a dream and we really did kiss."

"So what happens next, cause I know you wouldn't be all down in the dumps after learning that, that kiss wasn't a dream?"

"Well he tells it was a mistake and to think nothing of it, that I'm like a little sister to him." Sango gasped.

"Oh god, how could he say that? That bastard." She said glaring at the wall as if it were Inuyasha.

"It doesn't matter, I mean its not his fault I fell in love with him." Kagome say her voice falling into a whisper.

"Aw Kag." And with that the two girls hug.

Inuyasha sighed as he sat in Sanoske's office. He kept thinking on what he had said today and couldn't help feel guilty. Why did he have to go and say something so stupid as that? Before he could ponder more on it, the door opened and in came Mr. Higurashi himself.

"So Yasha my boy, what happened between my daughter and you that made her come crying all the way home." Inuyasha sighed again and let his scowl fall from his face and in its place was a whole lot of different emotions.

"You know exactly what happened." He simply said and ran a shaky hand through his silver-ish locks. Sanoske chuckled.

"Of course I know, I've known since the day you met my daughter." He had on a smirk as he remembered past times. "And I just don't want my little girl getting hurt." He said in a fatherly tone.

"And she won't get hurt, not if I have anything to do with it."

"Well it seemed you had something to do with today." He said in a joking manner. Inuyasha glared at the old man.

"You know thing didn't go the way I planned, and now that this has happened, I don't think they will." He said slouching in his chair. Sanoske shook his head.

"Don't pull back now, you've come a long way." He said and patted Inuyasha's back.

"Believe me I'll never give up!"

It had been a couple of hours and the girls were still talking. Sango trying her best to cheer up Kagome and so far it was working.

"So what did he say when you smacked him?"

"Oh the usual, 'Your love taps of passion give me hope my lovely Sango'" The two burst into laughter as Sango mimicked her boyfriend's antics. "I swear his lines are becoming weirder by the moment." The two quieted down for a while.

"So, why weren't you surprised when I told you about my father asking me to be in the business?" Kagome noticed as Sango got stiff.

"Well lets just say that I already knew…" She said timidly and tried to back off a bit. Kagome's jaw fell open and she said nothing, which scared Sango.

"You knew?" She asked a couple minutes later. Sango nodded her head. "When, how, where?"

"Um lets see…this morning, my father, and at my house." She said with a slight smile. Kagome rolled her eyes. "And to make you feel a tad bit better, Miroku and I are going to join in."

"You are!" Kagome said jumping up like a three year old.

"Well I couldn't let you have all the fun, anyways they need a good hacker, Miroku, and gossiper, me." She said and pointed to her self. "Everyone knows I know everything first hand that happens in this city." She said proudly before they fell into laughter again.

The room was dark and dingy, except for the one lamp that lit barely in anything. The same man as before with the long silver-ish hair stood in the door way and looked in as he spotted the man he was talking to before. His long brown hair that was held up in a high pony tail, slightly glimmered next to the dim light.

"So you saw her?" He asked and watched as the sliver haired man sat down across from him.

"Yeah, she was by herself, but then that damned Hanyou came." The blue eyed man raised a brow.

"Isn't he your half brother?" The man across form him glared daggers.

"Don't you ever say that again or I swear I'll rip out your eyes and feed them to you." The other guy gulped.

"Geez Sesshomaru, no need to be to so graphically violent." He aid with a grin. "Anyways, so I'm going to be the one to take her at the club?"

"Obviously, someone need to drive the car!"

"Hm I wonder how much Naraku is going to pay us for this one?"

Kagome waved goodbye as Sango had decided to leave, saying it was getting late. She turned and walked away from the door, she was just about to walk up the stairs when someone called out her name. She turned to the sound of the voice which came from her father's office.

"Yes father." She said in a serious tone when she stepped inside. He motioned for her to sit and she did so.

"So how are you?" He asked. Kagome shrugged her shoulders.

"alright I guess. Sango really cheered me up." Sanoske nodded his head, happy with what he heard.

"So have you given any thought to my offer?" Kagome hesitated before nodding and looking up at her father.

"I have and I'm ok with it, just as long as I have Sango and Miroku with me." Sanoske looked as if he was thinking this over.

"It won't hurt will it?" He said earning him a smile from her. "Just as long as Inuyasha is with you too at all times." That smiled dropped and was replaced with a frown.

"Why does he have to be with me? I thought he was your right hand man?"

"He is and so that's why I trust him with my daughter's life." Kagome sighed and got up, she kissed her daddy good night and quickly left the room. Again Kagome was just about to walk up the stairs when something grabbed her and spun her around.

"Kagome we need to talk." Kagome glared as he looked down at her.

"We have nothing to talk about Inuyasha." She hissed.

"But that's where your wrong." He said in a tone that said his word was finale, to bad he was talking to a Higurashi and where a Higurashi was concerned their words were always finale!

"No Inuyasha I think your wrong, so if you wouldn't mid letting go of me and leaving me alone." She said yanking her hand out of his grasp and rushing up the steps. Inuyasha just stared after her.

"I think it's best if you let her cool down a bit, before talking to her." Inuyasha looked to the side to see Sanoske with his head poking out from his office. He nodded and went off to who knows where.

Kagome woke to the smell of delicious food and quickly sat up in her bed. She looked to her right and saw Aya's bright smiley face. In her hands was a large tray filled with a plate of eggs, bacon, pancakes, toast, orange juice and water.

"Aya, wow thank you!"

"Anything for our birthday girl!" She said an placed the tray on top of Kagome's lap.

"Can you believe that for a second there, I forgot it was my birthday?" She said happily. "Thanks Aya this is a wonderful present!" She said and gave the cook a quick hug.

"No thanking me just yet, wait till dinner is served and then you'll be thanking me for real." She said with a wink and left Kagome to eat her food in peace. An hour late Kagome finished up cleaning her bed and fixed herself in the mirror. She decided to wear a Lady Enyce outfit, which was a tan mini skirt and a tan tank top that fit her curves perfectly. She then put on some tan and white Reeboks to match. She put her hair up in a loose bun and added light make up. Seeing she was ready to go, she picked up her purse and left her room.

Just as she got down stairs, she felt someone staring at her and looked up to see Inuyasha in a black tank top and black baggy jeans. Damn did he look good! Kagome shook her head of such thoughts and walked right passed him, noticing how he flinched. She smirked to herself.

"Happy birthday sweetie!" Came Sanoske's voice from behind Kagome and she had to turn around to give him a bear hug.

"Thanks daddy!"

"So how's feel to be the big 18?" He said a playful tone. Kagome smiled.

"It feels great! Oh and Sango, Miroku, and I are going out to do stuff, we really don't know yet." She said with a shrug. Sanoske nodded his head and followed his daughter out the door. He heard her gasp as she saw what was waiting for her. He grinned when he saw her face. It was priceless.

There in front of Kagome Higurashi was a brand spanking new 2005 Mercedes Benz with her name on the side in a graffiti lettering. Angle wings also painted on the side, going all the way to the front where an angel's body was on the hood. The whole car was baby blue, of course her fave color. In one minute she was checking out the car and in the next she was squeezing her dad to death.

"OMG THANK YOU!" She yelled so the world could hear. "This is the best birthday ever!" Sanoske smiled even more when he dangled the keys in her face. She instantly grabbed them and went to open the drivers side. Inside the interoir was a baby blue leather with her initials in gold sowed into the seats. The dash board was a hard surface yet smoothed to the touch and was painted baby blue with clouds all over. There was also a pull out TV with a CD, DVD and Cassette player. Everything a car needed was inside this one and everything any body ever wanted in a car also. Kagome again gave her father a fierce hug, before jumping into the car, turning it on and driving off to go show her friends.

Sanoske chuckled some more as he saw drive off onto the street. Inuyasha shortly coming to his side.

"Thanks for the idea." He said to the young hanyou. "It was more a present from you then me." Inuyasha shook his head sadly.

"Even though she wouldn't have accepted it from me." he said before turning around and going back into the house. Sanoske could only watch with pity at what these two were doing to each other.

"If only they knew."
