A week had gone by. Kagome made sure to stay out of the house as much as she could, limiting her interactions with the half-demon to almost nothing but a glare here and there as they passed in the halls. He was an early riser, which surprised her. She had forced herself years ago to conform to a rigid schedule of getting up at five in the morning, going for a half-hour jog, showering, getting ready for school, and eating breakfast with an hour left before she had to be at her destination. She had assumed he'd be lazy and sleep in until noon or more, but it turned out he seemed to have similar habits, although why he insisted on such a schedule when he was on vacation and didn't have to do anything at all confused her. Hell, if she was as successful as he was and had his lifespan, she'd spend all day at home eating ice cream and watching Korean dramas and laughing at the very thought of poor people. But she wouldn't, because she had to stay fit for Hojo. Maybe then she could tempt him into breaking that promise he claimed he had made to himself at an early age to only have sex within the sacrament of marriage.
Kagome bounded into the shower and rinsed the sweat off with cold water. They were in love, weren't they? They had been together the longest out of anyone else they knew. And they never fought, not even once! She scrubbed her hair angrily. It hadn't bothered her this much until stupid Inuyasha had shown up and started questioning it. Yes, she had tried to seduce Hojo more times than she could remember, but he was deceptively strong-willed when it came to things like that. And if he was gay, she would have seen the signs! He never checked out any of the other guys at school. He had only ever had eyes for her. Inuyasha was just being ridiculous, she reasoned, turning off the water. He just wanted her to fulfill some weird kink scenario and he'd say anything to get her to abandon her soulmate. Grabbing her fluffy pink towel from where she had thrown it over the top of the shower, she shoved open the glass door and proceeded to rub down her legs.
"Thought you'd like to know how Operation Gayfriend was progressing," Inuyasha said, a wide smile on his face from what he probably thought was an extremely clever name which in reality any twelve-year-old boy would have thought was stupid.
Kagome shrieked and backed up, but the lingering moisture on the bottom of the tub caused her to slip, and she flailed about in mortal fear for a split second until Inuyasha forcibly righted her.
"Clumsy girl," he chided, his hands on her shoulders and his eyes on her breasts.
Her naked breasts.
She didn't need to look down to know that her nipples were standing at attention. The invigorating cold shower always had that effect. Inuyasha had an evil smirk on his face and his eyes were lit up with a perverted glee. She had never felt more disgusted in her life, she told herself as she rubbed her thighs together.
"G-g-get out!" she stuttered, screamed, and sputtered.
His gaze never once leaving her breasts, even though she had since covered them with her arm as best as she could, Inuyasha backed out. Hand on the door knob, he said with a sly smirk on his face, "I've been hanging out and watching your boy, and he's been watching me too."
And then he left.
Kagome scowled at the closed door, wishing she had demon strength so she could break through it and claw Inuyasha's stupid smiling face off. But she was only human, so she continued to dry herself off, paying special attention to the extra wetness between her legs and ignoring her burning face, as acknowledging her embarrassment would only make her feel worse. Deciding to turn her mind to other things, she thought about what Inuyasha had said. Of course, he was just taunting her. He had to be! Hojo was too busy to develop an interest in anyone else, even if he was gay, which he totally wasn't. No, they were going to get married and grow old together and their entire life would be just as perfect as it was always supposed to be. He would give her a beautiful family and she'd spend the rest of her days trying to thank him for it.
The shower incident forced out of her mind, Kagome got dressed and dried her hair. She was finished with all her tests and knew instinctively that she had passed with flying colors. It was the last day of school, which meant signing yearbooks, pizza parties, and explaining to everybody once again why she did not want to walk in her graduation. As soon as she got her acceptance letter to Mellick, she was going to be on the next plane out there, finding a nearby apartment and adjusting to life. Sure, the letter was late in coming, but it would come. No more would she live in her parents' home and have to wear ear plugs in order to get some sleep. No more would she be forced to endure their neglect as well as their ignorance of their neglect. She was going to be free, and Hojo would be there for her, just not as close.
Which was exactly why she had to hook him now.
Unbuttoning one more button than she usually did on her school uniform, thinking nobody would say anything since they were basically done with high school, she put on a light layer of make-up as well. She'd prove to Inuyasha that Hojo wanted her. Rolling her skirt at the waist, she made it even shorter, just barely grazing her thighs. It was time to really take advantage of the slutty schoolgirl fetish every man on earth had. A thought occurring to her, she reached up her shirt from below and unhooked her bra, taking it out through a sleeve. Oh yeah, she was going all out. Throwing on a pair of heeled, patent leather Mary Janes that weren't approved by the school, she was ready to go.
She had promised her friends she'd ride with them today, so Yuka's car was the one waiting for her when she went outside. As she put her seat belt on, ignoring the mindless chattering and greetings of her friends, she glanced back up at the house, some force pulling her attention away. Inuyasha was there in her bedroom window, looking out at her with that same smirk on his face, the one he'd had when she'd been naked. Glaring at him, she mouthed "fuck you" and turned away, lamenting that from now on whenever he saw her he'd be remembering what she looked like in the nude.
"Kagome? Did you hear?"
"What?" she asked not too intelligently, mind still on the jerk that was invading her privacy as she spoke.
"Hojo's not coming in today. He's sick," Ayumi explained. Continuing dreamily, she said, "Are you going to nurse him back to health?"
"Uh... yeah," Kagome muttered. How had they known her boyfriend was sick before she did? Had Hojo called them instead of her? Telling herself that Hojo knew her schedule and the fact that she left her phone at home and did not check it until after school and had probably just told her friends knowing it would get back to her, Kagome settled back in her seat, mind more or less at ease. She was even able to pretend to be interested in the conversation her friends were having about their sexual escapades all throughout high school.
She wasn't jealous. She had love. She would be fine.
Oo/O
"I think I'm just going to leave early," Kagome mumbled to herself.
Her outfit had gotten her quite a few looks, even after she had pulled her skirt down to its customary length and buttoned her shirt back up. She couldn't do anything about the lack of a bra, though, and had even thought of asking one of her friends if they had a spare before realizing how completely ridiculous and desperate that sounded. So she just cut class and left, heart heavy, not a single yearbook signed. The walk home was difficult since she was wearing heels and it was too hot for her to take them off and go barefooted. She wished she had thought ahead and brought a spare pair of sneakers or something, anything.
There was a glint of silver in her window when she came back and she glared at it even more vehemently than she had glared at all of him just that morning. Kagome needed to take her frustrations out on something, and the half-demon jerkwad was the best candidate. She would scream at him so hard he'd develop PTSD and freak out at the mere mention of a teenage girl's room in the future. Bounding up the stairs, hands grabbing her boobs to keep them steady, she kicked open the slightly ajar door to her room, only to lower her hands from her breasts in shock at the scene before her.
There was Hojo, on his knees at the end of her bed, squealing like a pig as he sucked Inuyasha's dick while jerking himself off in his pants. Inuyasha's eyes connected with hers and there was that smirk, his eyes raking over her body, mentally undressing her. Meekly, she closed her door as quietly as she could and stumbled back downstairs. A part of her knew she was, once again, in shock. She couldn't seem to hear anything and that tunnel vision thing was beginning to develop. She was so, so hot, much hotter than she had been outside. Kagome needed air, needed coolness. Her hand scrambled to yank open the fridge door, feeling heavy. She was going to faint if she didn't do something soon, but what was there to do? Deep breaths. Stand still even though her knees were trembling like crazy. She had never really truly shaken before Inuyasha came, not uncontrollably.
"Hey, Kagome! Did you get a good look?" Inuyasha asked excitedly from somewhere behind her.
"Where is he?" she whispered, her throat tight and her muted voice high. All her dreams. All her dreams were dead. Hojo had been her ticket out, her ticket to a primetime family sitcom life, and now that was gone.
He moved to her side, into her line of vision, but she still refused to look at him, instead noticing the ants that had made their way inside the fridge only to become smooshed by the door. Gross. Her mother either needed to learn how to clean or to hire a maid that came more than once a week.
"He left like fifteen minutes ago."
How long had she been standing there? Kagome couldn't hold back her tears anymore and they fell in a rush, tumbling over each other to see who would be first to slide down her face and embarrass her in front of the person, the monster, who had managed to ruin everything in such a short amount of time.
"Are-are-are you crying?!" Inuyasha asked in a voice both high and strained. His tone was a mixture of disgust and panic. "Aw shit, please don't cry, oh God, uh, were you hungry? Do you want a sandwich?"
The fridge wasn't even cold anymore. Inuyasha gently pushed past her and took an armful of jars and packages out of the fridge, shoving the door closed with the tip of his shoe. Kagome noticed in dulled amazement that he was making her favorite sandwich, ham and spaghetti sauce with pepperoncinis and muenster on sheepherder bread. How did he know what her favorite sandwich was when it was so odd? She began to cry harder. Hojo wouldn't know what her favorite sandwich was and they had been dating for half a decade. She remembered their first interaction, how he had complimented her on her shoes in math class. Maybe she should have seen this whole thing coming.
Inuyasha spread the spaghetti sauce faster on the bread, clumsily flicking some onto his face and layering the muenster on the sauce, sticking the thick slices of bread in the toaster oven and turning it on.
"Please don't cry, Kagome!" he pleaded. "Why are you crying, anyway? I showed you how he really was. I expected a thank you kiss at the very least."
That got her to look at him. "Why am I crying?!" she screamed. "Maybe because I just saw my boyfriend sucking my brother off when he and I have only kissed maybe a total of five times!"
"So? Now you're single. You're free. You're fucking welcome!" he shouted back, slamming a hand on the kitchen counter and making her jump. "And I'm not your fucking brother unless I'm human. This came for you, by the way."
Kagome took the envelope from his hands shakily, knowing what it was before it was even close enough for her to read the writing printed on it. The only dream she had left. Mellick University, the one school she had wanted to go to ever since she discovered her passion for writing when she was in first grade. Everyone, from her parents to her guidance counselor to her teachers to her friends had assured her that she was going to get in, since she came from a wealthy family and had stellar grades and was active in a variety of extra-curricular activities. But she wasn't so confident, not where this dream was concerned.
"I guess you really didn't care about him if you were willing to go to school in another state, thousands of miles away from him," he pointed out in a drawl.
Eyes flashing, Kagome glared at him. "Shut up!" she retorted lamely. It was just too nerve-wracking a time to think of anything clever to say.
She was still thinking hard about the contents of the envelope, her heart pumping like mad. True, she had never had anything below a B in her life and her last B was in ninth grade, but she still felt nervous. Kagome had always wanted to be a writer, and all writers went to Mellick. It was extremely exclusive and small and located in the middle of a forest. People who weren't accepted didn't even know how to get there, that's how exclusive it was. Replaying all the encouragement she'd ever gotten, she blinked her tears away and opened the envelope, taking out the single sheet of paper and unfolding it before shakily letting it fall to the floor after reading the first few words.
"What's it say?" Inuyasha asked, eyes big and curious and so very much like an afternoon sun.
"I-I-" Kagome gasped, unable to form words.
"You what?"
"I... I didn't get in," she whispered. The tears came again, harder than before. Somehow, her arms were around Inuyasha and she was squeezing him as hard as she could, holding on like he was the only piece of driftwood in the stormiest of seas and she was the sole survivor of a shipwreck. It felt nice, surprisingly. He rubbed her back and made soothing sounds like her mother used to when she was little.
"It'll be alright, Kagome. Everything will be fine."
"I only applied to Mellick," she croaked out, desperately trying to hold back her sobs. "That's it. I've worked so hard for so long and-and-and-"
"It'll be okay, babygirl," he murmured into her hair. Kagome felt his nose twitch against her cheek and he jerked away from her and turned to the toaster oven. "Oh crap, it's fucking burning goddamncockshitfuck!"
Kagome barked out a laugh and wiped her eyes only to immediately have them moisten again, although not quite as quickly or as much as before. Inuyasha turned back to her, the look on his face comically apologetic.
"On the road trip," he continued, "we could stop by Mallard or whatever and I could kick some asses for you. Sound good?"
She laughed again. "And what else would we do on this road trip?"
He grinned wide enough to show his fangs, and it was big and genuine, making his face light up boyishly. "Anything you want! Name it and I'll make it happen. Concerts, restaurants, clubs, dumb tourist attractions-"
"Like Taisho Land?"
Inuyasha smirked. "We'll save that for last since it's all the way on the opposite side of the country."
Kagome frowned. "You keep acting like I'm going."
He rolled his eyes. "What else are you gonna do?" She flinched and he sighed. "Tell you what. How about you just stay with me this one summer? That's it. I'll make some calls or a donation or whatever and get you into that little college in the middle of buttfucking nowhere. After the summer's over, I'll send you off on your merry way with a semester's worth of allowance. How's that sound? Fair?"
Kagome narrowed her eyes at him. "Why do you want me to take this trip with you so badly? I'm not going to sleep with you. That's wrong."
"I can't want to get to know my mother's daughter?" he asked casually, turning his back to her and taking the burnt sandwich out of the toaster oven to dump it in the trash.
"You've been coming on to me this whole time!" Kagome asserted. "And don't think I've forgotten about your behavior. Molesting me in my sleep, walking in on me in the shower without even knocking. And that was your dick in Hojo's mouth! I know you don't know how human stuff works, but that's a big deal and I think it was disgusting and absolutely terrible of you. And how'd you know what my favorite sandwich was, anyway?"
Inuyasha scowled. "You think I've been doing nothing since I arrived? Since you wouldn't let me get to know you, I had to ask around. Just think it over. You know what, just think of it as a paid internship. That's what it'll be on paper. I'll even give you a recommendation any time you want it."
Kagome hated him in that moment, the self-assured, confident look on his face, how he was just casually leaning back, elbows against the counter, his eyes boring into hers with an intensity only a demon could possess. He was rude, arrogant, and creepy as hell, but he had a point. An internship with Taisho Productions? Add to that getting into Mellick with a whole semester's allowance, which would almost certainly be inflated since he was unforgivably rich and most likely had no idea how the common folk lived. He hadn't said she'd have to sleep with him, and she most definitely never would. It all seemed way too good to be true, but he didn't seem like he was lying. Still, with the way he was looking at her, it felt like he had something up his sleeve.
Kagome shook her head. No, the guy was an idiot. A rude, loud, bumbling idiot. He was probably hoping she'd be so grateful that she'd cave sometime during the trip. What a moron.
Smiling tightly, she stuck out her hand. "You've got yourself a deal, Inuyasha."
When he smirked and closed his hand over hers in a caged caress, she shivered. It was like she was making a deal with the devil.
