A/N: Hey again! I'm thinkin of puttin another story up sometime soon, but I'm not sure which. It's either going to be one called Rock Stars Can't Have Girlfriends or one called Real Love is Forever. They r both InuKag. I cant decide which I like better. Eventually I want to put up all my storys. I have A lot. I'm even considering a second to the Girl Next Door. I already have this story finished. Its just a matter of finding time to type it up. I'm NEVER home.
Disclaimer: No. I don't own InuYasha. I really wish I did. This is like really depressing to type it over and over.
Chapter 11: Caught.
“Kagome…Kagome…Kagome!” A voice yelled in her ear. Kagome rolled over and ignored it. She had made a complete fool of herself last night, and she was never getting out of her bed again. No one was making her get up. Not even the devil himself.
“Kaagooomeeeee! Get up! It's 11:30! Kaaaaggooooooommeeeeeeeeee!” The voice screeched. Kagome grabbed a hold of a stuffed animal she kept near her pillow and launched it at the person.
“Get away, Sota. I'm not in the mood. I had a bad night.” Kagome mumbled into her pillow.
“I'm NOT Sota. Do I sound like I'm just going through puberty to you?” The voice asked.
“FINE! Whoever the hell you are, get away from me! NOW!” Kagome screamed at the top of her voice.
“Kagome, don't make me do the extreme.”
“Go to Hell,”
“I'm serious. You don't want me to do this.”
“Shut the fuck up!”
“I wouldn't use that language if I were you.”
“Shut UP!”
“Fine.” InuYasha turned to a hip hop station on her stereo. As soon as the music reached Kagome's ears, she jumped up, ran to the stereo and shut it off. She spun around and faced InuYasha.
“What do you want?” She snapped.
“Aren't we going to try to hook Miroku and Sango up?” InuYasha reminded her, looking her up and down.
Kagome's hair was a mess and she didn't have any makeup on. She had on a pair of small red underwear and a small white tank top. She looked absolutely stunning. InuYasha wouldn't mind waking up to that everyday.
“Don't know how. Sango wont talk to me.” Kagome grumbled, depressed.
“Why not?”
“Cause of this stupid thing I did. My life is falling apart! My friends hate me, I'm failing like all of my classes! I wish I was someone else! I hate myself! My boyfriend couldn't care less about me! He barely touches me! I'm pretending to be someone I'm not! I'm cheating on my boyfriend with this guy! To put the icing on the cake, I may be falling for this guy, that it will never work out with, and is totally in love with someone else!” Kagome fell down on her bed and sighed.
“Wow. That's….a lot. So… who's the guy?” InuYasha asked.
“Huh?”
“ The guy you are cheating on your boyfriend with. Who is it?”
“Technically, I'm not cheating on him. It's not against the rules, according to Rin.”
“But you are falling for him. Who is it?” InuYasha was getting tired of asking. He just wanted to know who this punk was.
“No one! Okay? No you! I'm not in love because it doesn't exist! It's all crap! I'm not in love! I'm not!” Kagome jumped up and screamed.
InuYasha just watched as the girl had a battle within herself. She seemed to be trying to convince herself that she wasn't in love more then she was trying to convince him. Obviously, she was confused. Kagome didn't know what she was feeling or what she wanted.
“I don't care how he makes me feel! Or how cool he may seem! It's all a lie! I hate him! I hate him! I hate him!” Her voice cracked in the end.
“Kagome, who is this guy?” InuYasha asked for what seem like was the seventy-third time. This jackass, whoever he was, was screwing with Kagome's emotions. He seriously needed his ass kicked.
“I can't tell you.” Kagome seemed to be calming down.
“Come on, Kagome. You can tell me anything.” InuYasha closed the gap between them and stood in front of her.
“Not this. I can't tell you. It's part of the rules.” Kagome shook her head.
“What rules? Kagome, you're not making sense.” InuYasha grabbed a hold of her shoulders. She seemed so stressed out. Like something was eating her alive.
“The rules. I can't tell you. Then I'll lose…and he'll….you'll hate me forever.” Kagome whispered, fear in her eyes.
“Keh. I won't hate you. I can't hate you.” InuYasha said, he looked down at Kagome and smiled. She could be so dumb sometimes.
“InuYasha, just drop it. Ok? I said I can't.” Kagome refused. She wasn't going to let Kikyo ruin her life and have to pay Rin fifty dollars. No way. She had to win. She had to.
“Kagome, this obviously bugging you. You have to tell someone about it.” InuYasha told her. He had to know what was going on. Maybe if he figured out what was up with Kagome, he'd figure out what was wrong with Kikyo. There might be a connection.
“Stop. I said I can't. I'm not going to tell you.” Kagome argued. She couldn't tell him. He already knew to much. She let to much slip.
“Come on, please?”
“No.” Kagome said. How did he even get in? Who let him in? Who even said he could be in her room? He was uninvited. He just walked right in and demanded her to start spilling her guts. But maybe, it was because he cared. Really cared.
“Fine. So can you teach me guitar?” InuYasha gave up. She was just to damn stubborn.
“Sure.” Kagome pulled on a pair of jeans that were laying on the floor. Then she got out two guitars and two picks. “Here.” She handed the Warlock to InuYasha and used her Virgin.
“Why do you always use your Virgin? Is it because you are one?” InuYasha asked. Kagome's jaw dropped. That was TOO personal.
“Can we stick to the topic?” Kagome snapped.
“Oww. Touchy subject.” InuYasha teased. He noticed Kagome's angry glare and decided to take her advice, to stick to the topic.
“Okay, so, first, you should learn basics, like this. Here put the guitar down,” Kagome put her guitar aside also.
“Your index finger is one, your middle is two and so on. Now the smallest string is numbered six. The thickest is one. There are twenty-three frets on the fret board.
“What is a fret?” InuYasha asked. Kagome rolled her eyes.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
The afternoon went by smoothly. Kagome helped InuYasha learn the basics. Like about 4/4 beats, a few cords; G, D, and A, but no actual songs yet. She also showed him some finger exercises so you could get your fingers to move quickly over the fret board.
InuYasha got angry with Kagome when she kept telling him nothing sounded right because his claws were too long. She tried to persuade him to cut them, but he threatened to throw her guitar out the two-story window, so she dropped it.
“Thanks for teaching me. Can we do this again?” InuYasha asked as Kagome put the guitars back in her closet.
“Sure.” Kagome shrugged. “Although most people pay for lessons you know.” She teased. She didn't expect InuYasha to pay her. Just being in his company was enough. As lame as it sounds.
For years, since they stopped talking, Kagome thought InuYasha was a cocky, arrogant, disgusting, hateful, evil, jock. Ok, so he was cocky and arrogant sometimes. And he could be disgusting. And he was a jock. But he wasn't evil. He was funny and could be nice if he wanted to be.
Suddenly, thanks to his lightning quick hanyou speed, he appeared right in front of Kagome. He was so fast, Kagome's nose got smashed against his chest. Kagome pulled back a little and rubbed her sore nose. InuYasha pulled her hand away from her face.
“If you want payment, I'll be happy to give it to you.” InuYasha's face came slowly closer to Kagome's. Instead of moving away, like she did before, Kagome tilted her head up to meet his lips half way.
As soon as their lips touched, they were both met with a surge of electricity and immediately deepened the kiss. After a moment, InuYasha's eyes snapped open.
He had tasted this kiss before. He had felt that shock, too. This wasn't new. He had kissed this girl before. But how? He never kissed Kagome before. He sure as hell would remember something like that. Or had he kissed her……..?
Then the pieces of the puzzle came together. It finally clicked. The reason why Kikyo was afraid to kiss him, why she couldn't dance, why she acted nicer and cared more. Why her kisses were sweeter. And why Kagome was suddenly so cold to her friends. They had pretended to be each other.
InuYasha pulled away. “You….you…..what?” Unfortunately, he had overworked his hanyou mind, trying to figure that out and now he couldn't make a coherent sentence. Damn.
As soon as Kagome saw InuYasha's face, she knew he knew. Something about his facial expression gave it away. Judging by his face, he was probably not going to be a happy camper.
InuYasha let go of Kagome and stomped to her closet. He had to see for himself. See if his suspicions were true. He flung open the door and saw exactly what he didn't want to see. Kagome's normal clothes filled half of the closet, the other half was full of Kikyo's clothes. It made his heart drop to his feet.
Kagome could tell by how hard InuYasha gripped the doorknob on the closet door that the shit was about to hit the fan. She could only hope that InuYasha didn't get too mad.
“What is this?” He growled through clenched teeth.
“Umm. Well. Ok. I can explain. You see, Rin, dared Kikyo and I to switch places for a month. We had to continue living in our own houses to make it harder. We weren't aloud to tell anyone and if someone found out, we had to pay Rin fifty dollars.” Kagome explained, looking at her black and red toenails.
“Why would you do something so stupid? Do you realize how many people this could have hurt? Think about Ayame, your FRIEND. First you made her cry, then Kikyo acted like you didn't care.” InuYasha was outraged.
“And worst of all, you played me for a fool! Kikyo and you passed me around like a diary! You were just having fun and kicks!” InuYasha began to see red. He could feel his demon blood begin to take over. He had to get out of here. He didn't want to hurt Kagome, no matter how bad she pissed him off.
“InuYasha! Calm down! It isn't a big deal! Everything will go back to normal. The way it was before Kikyo and I messed it up! You'll have Kikyo, the real Kikyo, back. Please calm down.” Kagome pleaded., backing away from him.
He was scaring her. His claws and fangs were starting to grow and his eyes kept flashing to red, and then back to amber. He was trying to keep his demon under control.
“No it won't be the same. Because Kikyo is never like you. How can I go back to Kikyo after dating you? But, I can't break Kikyo's heart, I love her, but I ……..This is so screwed up.” InuYasha seemed to be calming down.
“Umm…sorry.” It was the only thing she could think to say.
“Yeah. Sorry doesn't take back screwing with everyone's minds, does it?” InuYasha jumped through her bedroom window and then dropped to the ground.
`Well, that could have gone worse. Maybe.' Kagome thought as she started to count out fifty dollars.
There ya go. He finally found out. Didn't go as well as you thought did it. It will get better between them, in a little bit.
Animelover4ever: Don't worry, Kikyo will get hers by the end. And it will be painful as Hell.
Pati: I'm happy I made your day a little better. I know exactly how you feel. I liked this one guy, and then he asked one of my friends from third grade(I'm in 10 so we have been friends off and on 4 a long time) paint balling. She turned him down, but the rest of the day I felt like hurting them both. Sry it seemed like this chapter was short. It like cut out or something.
Cursed 10ve: Thanx 4 tellin me it cut off. I never would have known and the next time I would have posted everyone would be like WTF! I should start checking 4 that. Thanx again!!!!!!!
*Sry if anyone was reading this while I was continuously deleting and reposting. It wouldn't fix. I finally got it to work when I realized that it was because for some reason the word three four beats turned to a fraction and screwed it all up. So sorry if it like cut anyone off! I was trying to fix it as fast as I could!
