Chapter 12: Recurring Memories
Next morning--
Sango had woken early, around 8:30, to get herself ready. After hearing that Miroku and Inuyasha would be joining them she couldn't help, but have the need to pretty herself up. She was already dressed but was stuck in front of the mirror trying to figure out what she should do with her hair. She held up her hair into a ponytail with her hands, shaking her head she let go and then she held her hair into the sagegami hairstyle (The style when she's not battling). She shook her head thus letting her hair fall down to her hips and smiled; it was better loose today. She combed out her hair and flipped it back so she could get on with the make-up. She took out her make-up kit and sat down in front of her mirror again.
She first started off with concealer then put foundation, after she applied magenta coloured eye shadow and then put a thin line of black eyeliner. She pulled out a brush and dabbed it in light pink blush and brushed it lightly on her cheeks. Finally she applied glossy pink lip-gloss. She smacked her lips twice and blinked taking a good look in the mirror. Satisfied, she got up and ran down to the kitchen to eat something.
Once she arrived, she paused in front of the phone. She had been doing that all morning. Sango had thought since Miroku was coming they could leave and meet the others together. She placed her hand on the phone ready to pick it up but then she sighed. "This is stupid. I don't want him thinking that I started falling for him, which I haven't," She snorted and walked away when the phone suddenly began to ring. Sango zipped around and faced it once more. It rang again and she began to reach for it. It rang one more time, therefore, she lifted it off the receiver and slowly placed it to her ear. "Hello?" she answered warily.
"Hey Sango," the voice spoke.
She gasped when she heard the voice. "Miroku?" She heard him chuckled.
"Yeah, it's me. I called, wondering if you wanted company on the way to the mall."
She froze, suddenly forgetting to ask how the hell he got her number. It was like he had read her mind. "Uh sure, that's what I was thinking. Why on earth did I just say that for?" She thought in between.
"Oh that's great! What time are you planning to leave?" he asked.
Sango glanced over to the clock. "Hm...I'm leaving around 11:30," she replied.
"Okay, perfect. See you then, later."
She smiled then hung up. Sango continued to the kitchen a little more bouncy this time. Then it struck her again. "Ahh! How on earth did that pervert get my number?" she shouted, but she went back to a smile and hummed.
As for Miroku, he sat at the kitchen table with an ear to ear grin plastered across his face. "Miroku, you've done it again."
Inuyasha's Residence--
Inuyasha was still asleep and the time was passing by. He was busy searching for more information on Kagome's pursuer. He was especially investigating more on Kouga's profile, but there was nothing on late attacks or any criminal records. Kouga's profile seemed clean. The agent was slowly starting to doubt that's this person was Kouga, but he didn't want to give in; he was determined to find this guy's true colours and prove it before anything happens to Kagome.
Komaru awoke, leapt off his owner's bed and left the room. His ears had picked up someone walking up to their door and a knock came soon after. He quickly ran down the stairs and began to bark until the person decided to ring. He recognised the scent and his bark turned into a growl.
Inuyasha's left ear, which was closest to the front door, twitched to the sound of both noises; One from Komaru's barking and two from the doorbell. He opened his eyes and sat up on his bed. He took a long tongue-curling yawn while stretching his arms. He looked over at his clock which read 9:45am. "Who hell could that be?" The ringing refused to stop and he groaned. "God dammit! I'm gonna give that person a piece of my mind." He put his legs over the bed and got up to his feet. He left his room with only his boxers on and headed for the door.
He reached the door where his companion continued to growl. Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. "What's up with you? This person bothering you too?" he snickered and he himself began to growl when the person held the doorbell making it buzz continuously. "Ugh...who the fuck is it?"
Finally the sound stopped and a new sound replied, "It's me!"
The hanyou was fully awoken now by the sound of the voice. "It can't be." He unlocked the door and opened it.
"Inuyasha!" the girl shouted with glee. I
Hid eyes widened. "K-Kikyo?"
"Yeah, it's me. Still in the habit of staying up later hours eh?" she smiled, walking in without an invitation. She heard growls at her feet and looked down. "Oh! I remember you, how've you been Komaru?"
Komaru inched away from her hand. Inuyasha wanted to snicker at his friend's reaction but instead he coughed. "So what do you want, Kikyo?"
His ex-girlfriend looked back up at him and stood up straight. "I just wanted to stop by and visit."
He couldn't believe what she was saying. "Kikyo, I know you wouldn't carry yourself all the way here just to visit me at 10 in the morning. You've always hated how far apart we lived from each other. So what's the real reason you're here?"
Kikyo shrugged. "I guess I wanted to ask you something." She began to walk up closer to him.
"What? What do you want to ask me?" He noticed her looking at him with strange eyes, he glanced down at himself quickly. Oh dammit! He was only in his boxers. He sensed her walking closer to him and backed up.
"What is your relationship with my younger cousin?"
Inuyasha raised an eyebrow. Younger cousin? Oh she was referring to Kagome he almost forgot about that extra information he had learned a few weeks ago. "I don't think that's any of your business, Kikyo."
Shepuckered up small frown and walked closer to him as he backed away more until he was stopped by his wall. Damn he wanted to break down that stupid wall from blocking his path. "Do you love her?" she asked, grasping his hand.
He shook his head. "No!" It had struck him hard when he said that aloud, though he didn't know why. He wasn't in love with her; he couldn't fall in love with her. One reason was in front of him now.
Kikyo sighed with some relief and stroked her hand against his bare chest and gazed back into his golden eyes. "Good. Just promise me this," Inuyasha blinked. Promise? "Just promise me that you won't get too close to Kagome." She had truly meant to say, 'don't fall in love with Kagome.'
Inuyasha gulped when her gaze never looked away and for some reason he couldn't look away either. It was that look again, the look that made him fall in love with her, those sad and lonely eyes. He relaxed, and Kikyo sensed that. She took this opportunity and leaned in connecting her lips with his. He couldn't help himself and fell into the kiss. Kikyo took this chance and pressed her body onto his and held his cheeks deepening the kiss.
Inuyasha suddenly came back to himself and gently pushed her back holding her shoulders. "What are you doing? You broke up with me," he frowned, with disappointment.
Kikyo looked down. "Ah. Yes, so young and innocent we were back then; can't we forget the past and start over?" She rubbed her head on his chest. "I've really missed you." A smirk appearing on her face.
His face tightened. "But Kikyo, you had really hurt me; do you truly think I can just forget everything that happened and start over? Kikyo, because of you, I swore that I would never fall in love with another woman."
She nodded. "I know, I'm terribly sorry; I truly never meant to hurt you. I guess I was scared at first, but I've taken the time to think things over and realised that," she took a breath. "I actually never stopped loving you." Then she wrapped her arms around his stomach.
Inuyasha eyes widened with shock and disbelief, he didn't know what to say. "Kikyo, I-" A faint whimper came at his side and he glanced down at Komaru then a flash of Kagome quickly passed his mind thus remembering what he had to do. He straightened up and pushed Kikyo back again and looked down. "Kikyo, I think you better go," he dismissed.
Kikyo frowned and backed away. "Fine, I see where this is going." Then she walked out the door.
He closed it after her and leaned his back against the front door. "Kikyo, do you truly think that what you've done, I can just simply forget; I'm sorry if your feelings are true, but my feelings for you aren't the same anymore," He spoke aloud, and then remembered the touch of her lips on his. It seemed like yesterday they were always like that. He then brought himself to the reason why they broke up.
*Flashback*
Inuyasha and Kikyo were on another date, their last actually and they were heading home, holding hands. Inuyasha was deep in thought and began to speak it out starting with, "Kikyo do you really love me?"
Kikyo looked at him like he was asking a silly question. "Of course I love you, that's why we're dating aren't we?" she giggled.
He smiled faintly and turned away. "Even if I told you something that might change your mind about things?"
Kikyo arched a brow and turned to him. "Yes, why are you asking? If you got something to say, then say it; we all have secrets."
They had reached Kikyo's front lawn and stopped.
"Okay, there's something I've been trying to tell you, but I've been afraid to."
Kikyo blinked concerned. "Okay, what is it? If it's another girl, well yeah things are bound to change," she started.
He chuckled softly. "No, it's nothing like that, I promise," he reassured. "It's just..." He sighed and pulled of his cap, revealing his dog-like ears slightly hidden beneath his sliver-white hair.
Kikyo gasped at them. "Are they-- real?" she asked, rubbing them and then began tugging on them.
"Ouch! Yes they're real, gees!" he yelped.
She backed up. "W-what are you?"
Inuyasha changed his expression back into a more serious one. "Kikyo, I'm no ordinary human. I'm a hanyou. Half-human and half-demon." K
ikyo's eyes widened and repeated, "A hanyou?"
He nodded. "Yeah, my mother was human and father was a dog-demon. That's why my hair is silver, that's why I have claws and fangs. Kikyo I'm not normal," he declared.
Kikyo's heart pounded loudly in her chest. "W-why didn't you tell me?"
"I told you, I was afraid to."
Kikyo held her chest. "Is that also the reason why your hair changes from silver to black every month, because of your human side?" He nodded. She was speechless and thought to herself. "All this time I've walking around with a monster." She looked back at him. "Is there any way to make you stay a human, forever?"
Inuyasha shook his head. "No, even if there was wouldn't you still love me if I stayed like this?" He asked.
"Inuyasha... How can you expect me to? Think ahead of how our children would look like," she trembled, picturing her little demon babies running around. Even though Kikyo was thinking way too far into the future his heart sank.
"But Kikyo, didn't you tell me that you'd love me for whoever I was? Why does this change now?"
"But this is completely different. I'm sorry Inuyasha, but I can't do it!" she cried running to her door, leaving him there on the sidewalk.
"Wait!" he demanded. Kikyo stopped and turned to him. "Kikyo is this what you really want?" he asked, before she opened her door.
"Yes, this is truly what I want," she answered to him for the last time. She opened her door, walked in and closed it behind her without even giving one last look at him. She had left him on the street by himself just staring at her door.
"Kikyo... You lied to me; you promised you'd stay with me no matter the cause," he growled and clenched his fist. "That's it, I've tried. I've tried to make people accept who I really am and the same results happen." He turned away from her house not daring to take a glance back and his bangs covered his eyes. "I won't... I just won't...I won't let myself fall in love again," he declared, he straightened himself and walked down the streets alone.
*End*
Inuyasha's face was covered by the length of his bangs as the memories recurred in his mind. "Dammit!" he cursed, banging his fist against the door behind him. "This is why I won't fall in love again. It would hurt too much." Komaru rubbed his snout against his thigh attempting to comfort him. The hanyou opened his amber eyes and smiled down at his friend and stroked his head. "Heh, let's go get us something to eat."
Higurashi Shrine--
It was now 10:56 and Kagome was still fast asleep. Kagome was always the one to sleep in late, but today wasn't a good day to sleep in. Soon the sound of her cell phone rang in her ears. "Tsk," she groaned and reached for the cell and answered it. "Hello?"
"Hi Kagome-chan!" Sango replied loudly and happy. "Are you almost ready yet?" Then she remembered the tone her friend just greeted her with. Kagome's eyes widened. "Kagome-chan, did I just wake you up again?"
Kagome turned over to her clock. "Ah! Oh my god! I thought I set my alarm for 10!" she shrieked.
"Well... lucky I called, again, get ready quick genius. You don't want to make Inuyasha wait now do you?" Sango teased.
"Oh be quiet, see you there," she said, and hung up. Kagome shot up from bed and ran around her house dressing up as quickly as she could. While doing so she began to blame people. "Mom! Why didn't you wake me up?" she shouted, running down the stairs. She ran in the kitchen and found her mother washing dishes.
"I thought you had already left," she replied. Souta was sitting at the table eating a snack.
"I feel bad for your boyfriend. He has to deal with "your" punctuality," he teased.
Kagome sighed with annoyance. "For the last time he is not my boyfriend. I really don't have time to deal with this, I'm late." Kagome then ran out the door with just a slice of toast in her mouth. "I can't believe I slept in like that."
Miroku's Abode--
Miroku was too impatient for the time to pass. He couldn't wait to walk with Sango. His phone rang and he answered it. "Yello?"
"Hey Miroku. It's Sango; I'm just letting you know we're going to be leaving earlier." Miroku felt his heart sore by the sound of her voice. Sango had redialed the number Miroku called from. "Kagome has slept in and I don't want Inuyasha waiting there by himself. Is that okay with you?"
He nodded even though she couldn`t see it. "Yeah, sure. What time are you leaving?" Sango giggled.
"In 5 minutes." Miroku made and "o" with his mouth.
"Okay, fine. I'll meet you outside then." He heard Sango reply and then hang up. Miroku quickly called Inuyasha and let him know that someone was going to be late, referring to Kagome. He soon put on his shoes and left a note on the counter letting his uncle know he just left. He locked the front door behind him and marched in front of Sango's.
He counted down the time until Sango opened up and walked out. "3... 2... 1..." And the door swung open. She shrieked when she saw Miroku standing on her door step.
"M-Miroku! Why the hell are standing in front of my door like that?" she asked, a little frustrated.
"Well I did tell you I would be waiting for you outside," he chuckled.
"Yeah but I wasn't expecting it to be right at my door, gees..." Miroku shrugged and looked up and down at her. Sango was wearing a black tube top with a magenta coloured broad belt that encircled her tummy and a very light pink which was closer to white, tight pants. He also noted her make-up and hair.
Sango cringed as he gawked at her. "W-what are you looking at?"
He snapped himself out of it. "I was just admiring how pretty you are today."
Sango's face heated up and she turned her face away to hide. "D-don't talk such nonsense, let's get going," she snorted closing the front door. Miroku watched Sango pass him and gazed at her lumps, behind and in front. Whoa! Miroku followed close behind, Sango was feeling uncomfortable with him right behind her. She stopped and was about to say something when she felt him grope front and back of her.
"Aw, what a blessing it is to be walking with you."
Sango trembled with anger feeling her hand rise up. She turned to face Miroku. "Pervert!" She slapped him hard across the face. "I can't believe you did that again."
Miroku rubbed his cheek with a grin. "But my dear Sango, you were teasing me with that look of yours." That left him with another hard and loud smack.
She growled. "You're so...so...ugh!" she huffed, turned around and walked ahead of him. "Let's get going or we're going to be late."
Miroku rubbed both sides of his cheeks still with a wide grin. "Today's going to be a great day," he thought.
Back on the street...
Kagome continued running down the street toast finished and was already embarrassed thinking of the people waiting for her, especially Inuyasha. Kagome sensed the presence, it was that presence. There was no mistake this was it. "No it couldn't be..." She slowed down her pace until she stopped completely and looked around. "C-come out, I know you're there." There was still silence and she began to feel uneasy.
"Sharp as always Kagome. It's certainly been a long been a long time hasn't it? Kagome my dear." She heard him whisper.
Kagome felt her heart begin to race. "Why don't you ever come out? You're always just watching me are you afraid of me?" she posed, trying to sound brave, but there was still a sound of fear in it.
"Kagome, I'm always much closer than you think, and no I'm not afraid of you, although, you sure sound like you're afraid of me. Do you wish for me to come out?"
She backed up and looked around hastily. She didn't want him to come out; hell she didn't want him to even show his face. That's how scared she really was. "L-leave me alone!" she bellowed. She heard his cold chuckles.
"Aw, Kagome dear, why do you want me to leave?" he spoke.
Kagome felt hands brush against her neck from behind. She was about to scream until his right hand covered her mouth and his left arm wrapping around her keeping her from moving. "Ssh...ssh...ssh...don't be afraid; you know you are much prettier up close. You're skin... It's so soft," he hushed with a comment and she trembled.
Kagome was afraid, it wasn't Kouga, no way that this was him; it was the 'one,' the person who's been stalking her. The frightened girl tried to fight her way out of his grip, at least if she was able to see his face but she couldn't. He smirked and took his left hand and stroked it down to her left hand and held it up. He kissed up her neck and sniffed in her sweet scent.
"You have no need to worry Kagome. Today, you still have your own free will. I'm not ready to take you away just yet." And he continued nuzzling his chin in her neck.
Kagome managed to get her mouth free and spoke. "Why don't you just get it over with?" she frowned, then she screamed loud hoping someone heard her. He glared and knocked her in the head. "Fool!"
"Kagome!" Someone called out.
Kagome didn't even have to ponder the voice. "I-Inuyasha!" she shouted back.
"Tsk. Our time has been cut short, later Kagome." He pushed her to the ground and ran off. Kagome zipped around hoping to catch a glimpse of him but he was already disappearing down the street.
"Hey, wait! Stop you!" Inuyasha was on his motorcycle and drove up looking from her to the man who just ran off he didn't know what he wanted to do, but soon decided he couldn't leave Kagome here by herself. He helped her up and asked if she was alright. She gave him a slight nod. "Did you know who that was?"
She had answered no then added, "let's just forget what happened just now."
Inuyasha frowned. "What? How the hell do you expect me to forget that? It was Kouga wasn't it?" But he didn't smell Kouga on her.
"No. I guess it was just another mugger; luckily you came by," she lied. "Anyway, why did you come this way?" she asked, slightly changing the subject.
"Well Miroku called, and told me that Sango said you were running late. Since I was running late myself I decided to meet you up the street. Thank god I did," he explained. He had a bad feeling today and went with his gut and came by.
"Yeah, well thank you," Kagome replied.
Inuyasha took out the extra helmet and handed it to her. "Let's go meet the others then," he suggested. Kagome nodded and climbed on. She wrapped her arms around him and noticed that he didn't say anything again when she said thank you. The agent turned the bike around and drove down the street as Kagome looked back, but saw no one. "I'm really glad I met up with Kagome. Kami knows that could have been Kurasaki."
The man reappeared on the street again and watched as the intruder took off with his 'toy'. "Damn that Inuyasha; he always appears whenever Kagome seems to be in danger. Who is he?" he pondered, then another man appeared at his side.
"So was that the new girl you're seeking?" his accomplice asked.
"Yeah, that was her alright," he grinned, remembering the touch of her soft and delicate skin.
"Then why didn't you just take her then? You had your chance before that bastard showed up."
"My dear friend, I'm going to take my sweet time with this one. I think I'm actually taking a liking to her and I certainly want to investigate more on this Inuyasha. His name does ring a bell," the dark man replied, with a small grin.
"Kurasaki-sama, do you wish for me to test things out?" his companion asked.
"That would be most helpful, go." His companion bowed with a grin and disappeared. "Let's just see what happens next." Then he soon disappeared down the street.
