Inuyasha Fic: One Drunk Text

Chapter Eight

Kagome felt her heart beat quicken as she waited by one of the school fountains. Where was he? Everything felt cloudy. Maybe this whole thing was a mistake. She lifted herself up and began to pace around as unclear thoughts swarmed her mind. Maybe she should go.

"Kagome?" A familiar voice crooned behind her and she froze. What was Inuyasha doing here? When she turned around, Inuyasha held a single rose in his palm.

"Is it you?" Inuyasha asked before hesitantly taking a step back. His head shook.

"Serial Killer?" Kagome asked and felt her heart drop into her stomach.

Inuyasha laughed dryly and dropped the rose before crushing it with his foot. "Yeah, but now that I know that it's been you, I'm so out of here," he replied. "Who the hell would wanna go out with a fat ass like you?"

Suddenly Kagome couldn't see the fountain and her surroundings began to crumble until a path to Inuyasha was the only thing visible. Panic consumed her. It's not him. It's not him.

"See ya, wench." Inuyasha left her and Kagome's ability to speak was gone. Wait. Inuyasha. Inuyasha. Inuyasha.

Kagome's eyes slowly flickered open. Her body curled into a ball as she gaped at Sango's bed across the room. What just happened?

"I told you, she's sleeping," Kagome overheard Sango's voice. Kagome's fingers flitted through her hair as she tried to come back to the real world. When she rolled over again, she felt her phone pressing against her back.

"Who is it?" Kagome asked with knitted brows as she twisted her arm under her back for her phone.

"She doesn't sound asleep to me," Inuyasha's voice echoed into the dorm with arrogance. Kagome's eyes widened before she instinctively pulled her covers over her body. What time was it?! Kagome frantically checked her phone. It was at seven percent battery. It was also noon. How did she sleep in so much? She glanced down at her locked screen. The screen displayed a text from Serial Killer and three from Inuyasha. Seeing their names together twisted her chest. What the hell kind of dream was that?

Kagome read the texts from Inuyasha.

I'm coming over

Do you want coffee?

You're getting coffee.

"I'll decide if she's sleeping or not, got it?" Sango told Inuyasha through the door. She kept a safe distance between him and the door. He couldn't look inside and as Kagome peeked out at Sango through the covers, she couldn't see him. Sango glanced back at Kagome, who seemed pale. Well, paler than usual. This may have been a surprise for Sango, but Kagome had actually made plans with Inuyasha. It wasn't exactly her decision. Inuyasha had given her an ultimatum. He could bother her during class everyday or she could actually give him the time of day.

"Tell him I get twenty minutes to get dressed," Kagome eventually groaned out before sliding out of the covers and reaching her feet onto the cool floor.

"Twenty minutes?! No way. Tell her to get out here," Inuyasha rudely responded. Of course, Kagome heard him as she picked out a shirt.

"He can leave if he doesn't want to be here." The power Kagome felt was a new feeling to her. While the dream was certainly throwing her off a little- okay, a lot- she still had no reason to think of Inuyasha as someone important to her. He lost that chance a long time ago.
