The Boyfriend
Chapter 5
On Friday, after the last final, Kagome went out with Eri, Yuka and Ayumi to celebrate the end of the last of the year’s tests. The girls invited Yukio along, but he said he had to get home early and said good-bye, but not before he kissed Kagome in front of her friends. She was so embarrassed, but at the same time, tingling from the kiss that her mind kept wandering.
“Hey, isn’t that your little brother?” Eri asked. Kagome turned and sure enough, there was Souta, glaring at her. He hadn’t spoken to her all week. She had finally broken down and cried in front of him and he had told her that it was her own fault. He stuck to his beliefs that she shouldn’t be seeing someone behind InuYasha’s back and that he didn’t like Yukio. He said the guy gave him the creeps.
“I guess I have to go,” Kagome said. The girls said their good-byes, and then Kagome walked over to her little brother, who turned and walked away when he was sure she was following. They walked back to the shrine in silence, Kagome having given up trying to speak with him. InuYasha was standing against the wall, watching her approach.
“Hi, Inu no nii-chan,” Souta said as he walked by. InuYasha looked down at him curiously, but Souta didn’t look at either of them.
“What’s with him?” InuYasha asked. Kagome looked at him and sighed.
“He’s mad at me.”
“How come?” the hanyo asked curiously. Kagome shot him a glare and he looked away. “Are your finals done?”
“Yes,” Kagome said, stepping into the house and taking off her shoes. InuYasha followed quietly behind.
“Will you be coming back?” InuYasha asked, still strangely quiet and subdued. Kagome looked back at him.
“What’s wrong?” Kagome asked. “You usually don’t bother asking.”
“I’m just trying not to be a creep,” InuYasha muttered.
“Oh,” Kagome said. She stared at the bag in her hand, letting the uncomfortable silence stretch for a moment. “I’m sorry.”
“Huh?” InuYasha’s ears twitched.
“I shouldn’t have said that to you. I was mad and nervous about my tests,” Kagome explained.
“Well, according to the others, you’re right,” InuYasha said, looking down at her bag with her.
“No, you’re not a creep, InuYasha,” Kagome said. “You can be a jerk sometimes, but it’s not like you’re deliberately trying to ruin my life. You just picked a really bad time to pull that little stunt of yours.”
“So you’re not mad anymore?” InuYasha asked.
“No,” Kagome agreed. InuYasha gave her a slight smile.
“So, let’s go,” he said, starting to get excited.
“Okay, but I have to come back tomorrow night,” Kagome said.
“Why?” InuYasha asked. “You’ve already been gone over a week!”
“Because I have a date,” she answered quietly.
“What’s that?” InuYasha asked, confused.
“A date… with my…” Kagome took a deep breath. “Boyfriend.” She braced for the explosion, but InuYasha just stared at her. He looked away after a few minutes.
“All right,” he said. “Let’s just go then.” He walked out of the house without another word. Kagome was just confused. Whenever Koga came around, InuYasha went ballistic. She didn’t understand his sudden passive behavior. She quickly followed behind him, calling good-bye to her mother, who waved. Souta came out of the house and watched her go until she was almost at the well house, then ran to her. He grabbed her arm.
“Be careful, nee-chan!” he said. “I’m sorry I’ve been mad at you!”
“It’s okay, Souta, I understand,” Kagome said.
“So did you break up with that creep?” Souta asked. Kagome flinched when InuYasha stopped at the well and looked back at them, a look of surprise on his face.
“No, I’m still going out with Yukio,” Kagome said in a scolding voice.
“Oh.” Souta said coldly, and then stepped back. “Well, whatever. Just be careful.” With that, he turned and walked away.
“He’s mad at you for your… boyfriend?” InuYasha asked, spitting out the last word. Kagome realized that InuYasha really was angry, but for some reason, he wasn’t throwing a fit.
“Yeah,” Kagome responded. InuYasha looked suspicious.
“Why?”
“He doesn’t like him,” Kagome said, half-truthfully. InuYasha’s frown deepened, but rather than say anything, he just jumped down the well. Kagome took a deep breath and followed.
The day proved to be a very long one. InuYasha barely spoke to anyone and the tension in the air was as thick as glue. Sango and Miroku kept shooting furtive glances between Kagome and the hanyo, and then looking at each other in confusion. Shippo had tried to taunt InuYasha, but the hanyo had totally ignored him and the kit was now pouting from Kagome’s shoulder.
“How did your tests go, Kagome-chan?” Sango finally asked, breaking the silence.
“I think I did pretty well, actually. I had a new study partner,” Kagome stopped for a moment when she saw InuYasha’s ears twitch in agitation. “They were easier than usual, since I didn’t have any distractions.”
“Sorry I’m such a distraction,” InuYasha growled.
“It’s not just you, you know!” Kagome said. “It’s hard to study with demons attacking and searching for the shards and—”
“Having creeps throw your books in the river,” InuYasha finished.
“I said I was sorry for calling you a creep, InuYasha!” Kagome shot back.
“Is your boyfriend your new study partner? Isn’t that distracting?” InuYasha hissed.
“Yes, he is and no, it’s not!” Kagome snapped.
“You have a boyfriend, Kagome?” Miroku asked, looking surprised.
“Yes,” Kagome answered, hating how guilty it made her feel to say that in front of InuYasha. ‘It’s not like he ever asked to be my boyfriend,’ she thought unhappily.
“What’s his name?” Sango asked.
“Yukio,” InuYasha answered. Kagome blushed at the way the hanyo said his name. There was a definite threat in his voice.
“It’s your own fault, InuYasha,” Shippo said, having dropped to the ground. “If you had wanted Kagome, you should have—” Shippo realized his mistake when InuYasha stopped, but kept talking until he turned. A moment later, he was howling on the ground, three lumps growing on his head. Kagome picked him up quietly and glared at InuYasha, not having anything to say. She didn’t want to chase him off and she knew how she felt when Kikyo came around, so she didn’t say a word.
“Just drop it, Shippo,” Kagome said when the fox started to open his mouth again. He looked up at her in surprise and she shook her head a little. He sighed, but did as she asked. It was a long, tense day, night and next day. It didn’t help when Kagome said she had to go back and get ready for her date. InuYasha had stalked off into the forest at her words and not even looked back.
“Are you sure you should leave him tonight, Kagome?” Miroku asked.
“Huh? Why?” Kagome asked before she looked up at the sky and remembered. “It’s the new moon…” she murmured. “I’ll try to be back before he turns human,” Kagome said to her friends. “Watch out for him.” They nodded and she ran back to the well.
