Chapter
16: Where They Lead
Kagome just laughed after Koga had
whizzed out of her home in a hurry. He
had procrastinated leaving until the very last possible second. It had actually been… cute. She would never apply that adjective to him to
his face, but he had been. It still
caused her to giggle like a schoolgirl.
She had to stoop to teasing him about his reluctance on going to work
when she was off.
It was a little after nine that
night. She knew that it was probably
too late to call him, but she had a problem with restraint after all the time
that he would wake her up at night or early in the morning.
But, he was mated. It wouldn’t do to call a “married” man at
night.
That gave her actions pause as she
just stared at her cell phone.
Groaning, she flopped back on her bed and opted to find something
interesting to watch.
She had just gotten into a show that
somewhat held her interest when her cell phone caused her jump as it went off.
“Hello.”
“Hey,”
came the purred response of her caller.
Kagome took a few seconds before she
placed the voice.
“Inu
Yasha?”
“Yeah. I didn’t want to wait to talk until
tomorrow. Well, tell me what you are up
to now. How much trouble you are
getting yourself into and how the family is?”
He had delivered his commands to her and grew silent, waiting intently
for the answers from her.
“I
see that your curiosity is up,” she murmured and began telling him all that he
wanted to know. “Let’s see… I am now a
nurse at Silent Lake. I don’t have a
designated section or role there yet. I
am now currently in the emergency room along with someone that you actually
know probably all too well.”
Kagome waited until he responded. It became apparent that he didn’t know
anybody that worked there to his knowledge when he gave an impatient
sound. That sound pushed her to
continue.
“Inu
Yasha, did you know that Sesshomaru was a doctor, and that he worked there?”
Silence hung in the air for the span
of a breath.
“I
knew he was a doctor, but you know we were never close. We just have a mutual respect to keep away
from each other as much as possible now.
Did he recognize you? How does
he treat you?” he questioned and waited with baited breath.
“Well,”
Kagome wavered, trying to decide how best to answer that question. “He still acts like his aloof, above
everybody else in the world self. He
has started acting odd around me ever since Koga popped back into my life
though. He didn’t seem interested in me
at all before that. Sometimes, I swore
that he actually went out of his way to be an ass, but lately, he stays on top
of me, hands on and overly familiar. I…
don’t know how to handle him in a way, and it pisses Koga off, so I don’t tell
him anything about it any more.” She
paused before launching into a discussion to answer his other questions before
he could say or do anything else. “I
don’t really get into too much trouble, except for damn demons.” She laughed as she said that, hoping that
this would distract him and tug at his humorous side, which had been malnourished
when she had known him during her teens.
“Ji Ji is really getting older.
I bet he would love to see you again.
Koga got much the same treatment as you did. You know… the whole exorcism thing. Mom is great. She has
this whole empty nest thing now since Souta is getting older. He brought home a girl the other day.”
Inu Yasha’s laughter interrupted
her. “I now really love your enthusiasm
as you talk. It was one of the things
that I missed about you, among several other features. Ahh… I missed you so much,” he said,
sounding nostalgic and like a certain melancholy had just been lifted from him.
“Well,
tell me what you have been up to for the last, oh, 500 years. You had also better have a damn good reason
for not getting in contact with me when I got back from the past.” She waited for his response.
“You
already know that I mated. You also
know that Miroku and Sango got married and had way more than enough children.”
Kagome was stunned at this. She knew that they had gotten married, but
she had no clue how many children or anything.
She interrupted quickly to ask.
“Well,
they have 7 really rowdy and rough sons and 2 even tougher daughters. They did have one rather quiet daughter as
well. I still can’t believe that she gave
him 10 children though. I… I… mated and
married one of their great-grand daughters from that quiet daughter. In some ways, she reminded me of you, Sango
and Miroku. Her name was Sayomi. She had Miroku’s violet eyes, Sango’s skill
with demon slaying, but I swear that she had your spirit and heart. Ever since she first saw me, she stuck with
me and wouldn’t let me go. She actually
lived to be the ripe age of 96 before leaving me quietly one night. We had four children, 3 daughters and 1
son. I think I missed you even more
after she was gone, but she helped while she was with me. She revived the hope that you gave me,
returned my love and accepted me without question. She loved to hear stories about you too. I used to tell all of Miroku and Sango’s
children, as well as their children’s children and so on and so forth about our
quest. You always seemed to be a
favorite. Without even being there, you
changed lives.” His voice drifted off
as he lost focus in what he was saying.
Kagome was having trouble
breathing. She was shocked, and the
longing that she had hidden and buried was being dug up and pulled to the
front. It still hurt that he had never
sought her out. He had to know that she
was back and even her approximate age.
A lengthy pause reverberated between
them over the phone.
“Well,
you met my granddaughter this evening.
She is the youngest grandchild that I have. She really took to you. I
don’t think that she knows that it was you from her bedtime stories from when
she was little yet, so you can be prepared for some hero worship when she does
figure that out. I guess you can call
it payback for Souta.” He laughed softly.
“Well,
I would love to meet your children and grandchildren one day,” Kagome said
quietly. She was trying to hold back
the dam on her emotions at the moment.
She had loved this being with all of her young heart, and it hurt that
she knew that he had been hurt without her being able to do a thing.
Something in her voice must have
tipped Inu Yasha off that she was fighting her emotions.
“Hey. Kagome.
Where’s Koga? We never did
finish our fight, and I have a flea bag wolf to beat up,” he said in his old
over confident tone.
That did it. All of a sudden and without thought, Kagome uttered the one word
that she never thought to say again. “Sit,
boy.”
There was an answering thump on the
other side of the phone.
“Inu
Yasha? Oh no… Are you ok? I am so
sorry,” she rambled on as she tried to get a response.
Indignant outrage poured through her
as she heard his laughing. “I never thought
I would hear you say that again or be slammed into the floor. That was some interesting reminiscing,” he
muttered, laced with good humor.
“Why
you… you… I don’t know what to call
you, but you better believe that it will be good when I think of it. Anyway, Koga is at work. He is on the police force actually. That was how we met again a few weeks
back. His partner had been shot, and I
was the nurse in the ER that worked on him.
We lost his suspect though,” she said sagely.
“Well,
you better grab your flea bitten wolf in the morning because we are going to be
meeting up for breakfast. You have a
choice of coming to my house or meeting at a restaurant. Don’t worry about asking Koga. I know that he would be ok with whichever. And if he is not, I will handle that,” Inu
Yasha self confidently remarked.
“Where
did this confidence come from?” Kagome teasingly inquired. “Ok.
I want to meet in a restaurant though.
I will meet the family soon. I
just want to get reacquainted with you first though.”
“I
know this little place not too far from here.
It’s a few blocks from my place, heading towards the park.” He waited, listening as she got ready to
start writing down the address and decipher her best way to get there.
They amicably chatted about Sango,
Miroku, Shippo and about their adventures during their quest for a long while
after that before saying goodbye and hanging up. Kagome paced for a few minutes before grinning and texting Koga.
We have a date in the morning.
Kagome stared at her phone and waited
until a little tone rang out.
Ok. Meet you at the house?
Kagome chewed her lip, indecisive for a moment.
Yeah. There is a certain place I want to go.
Ok.
Love you babe. See you then.
Kagome giggled when she got the text
back and then opted to kick back and watch something until she nodded off.
Koga stepped into the apartment after
he got off. He had rushed home,
expecting to see her up and getting ready.
He decided he actually like this better… unless if she was in the
shower, or even naked already and waiting for him. He reached her and leaned down and kissed her awake.
“Hey,”
she husked as she woke up out of her doze.
“How was work?”
“Fine. We had a little fun, but nothing too
big. Are we going to stay home? You know that I am just fine with that. But, if you want to go out, we should be
getting ready,” he teased her.
Kagome looked at the time before
gasping. “We better hurry up.” She jumped up and began pulling out a cute
pair of khakis and a top that had interesting detail.
Koga watched her frantically getting
ready and began trying to figure out why she was acting so frantic about going
out. It wasn’t like anything was
closing anytime soon. It was 6.30 in
the morning.
His attention was diverted as he
noticed that she was jumping into the shower.
Now, that was somewhere where he wanted and intended to be. He quickly dashed into the room with her and
stripped just as she was stepping into the cubicle.
A/N: I have a couple of things to tell all of you
all. One, I should have put on my last
update: The translation for Kaminari is
thunder. Sayomi is Night-Born
beauty or little night beauty.
I just figured that would be something that you all would be interested
in.
Another
point is that I have for some weird reason decided to start another story under
the threesome/moresome category. Its
title is Push. I will trying to
keep all the characters in character (avoiding as much as possible any OOC’ness.) I don’t know if any of you all would be
interested in the story since it is a bit different from what I normally write.
Thanks
to all my readers, raters and reviewers.
Ruby: Yeah and no. He isn’t particularly old.
I was picturing 40-55 age range, so he has just aged a bit faster than
Koga or any of the other demons.
Honestly, I think his correlative human age at this point might be
around the earlier 40’s, but I don’t see him doing a lot to slow the aging
process with the gray hair entering and so on and so forth. I will get into more about his mating with Sayomi
in the next few chapters as he and Kagome reunite and get caught up with each
other.
Ai
Kisugi: Hey! I think you just might get your wish. Inu Yasha just can’t seem to keep away from her no matter how he
might feel about her. I am having
trouble keeping his character true though, so I am just going to let him behave
however. I keep trying to keep in mind
how each one of these characters would have changed over the course of 500
years while Kagome has only had the few years to change and most of that had
been centered around school. Hmmm…
Sympathy sex… Hmmmm… Hee hee. You love giving me stuff to consider. LOL
Well, I am about go check your story.
I am still excited about getting two updates so close together. I just got on a writing streak and was all
alone in the house with an apparently sleepy dog on the bed with me that whined
everytime I got up. I think she is
having growing pains though. That, and
she is enthralled with watching Howl’s Moving Castle and a couple of other
shows.
Have
a great New Year’s Eve tonight!!!! Be
safe and careful!
