Symphony of the Masked Faces

I’ll still love you when I call your phone and you don’t pick up.

‘Hi it’s Kagome, I’m not here right now but leave a message and I’ll get back to you!’

It’s the fourth time I’ve called your phone and it’s the third time your machine has picked up. I am tempted to leave a message but I am at a loss for words. What can I say to you that could possibly explain all that I’ve done? H can I tell you how much I love when I’ve been trying to make you miserable for the past year? I glance at the waste basket to my left and watch as the unopened bottles of bourbon glitter and sparkle as if trying to draw me in. I almost give in until I remember what these bottles have done to me. Picking up the cell phone I had tossed onto the couch, I pick up the bottles and make my way to the bathroom where I will toss all of that liquor down the drains. The world seems to slow down as the bottles slip from my fingers and hit the floor shattering in thousands of brilliant shards. I slip on the wet floor and soon my blood mixes with the liquor and those shards that shined so brilliantly now adorn my body. My skin burns and I know that I will ache in the morning. Feeling that all too familiar darkness steadily making it’s way, I pick up the phone and dial your number once more. It rings and rings until finally you pick up.

“Hello” you say and your voice temporarily stops the pain.

“K-Kagome, please I need you.” I respond my voice trembling, from pain or emotion I cannot say.

“Sesshomaru? What happened, what’s wrong?” you ask frantic, worry in your voice. The darkness reaches me and it’s your voice I hear before my eyes close.

I’ll still love you even when I’m bruised and bloody.

I’ll still love you even when I’m bruised and bloody. My eyes flutter open and I flinch as sunlight floods my sight. Groaning, I try to sit up and feel last nights occurrences and the pain come back. ‘How did I get into bed?’ I wonder. The mystery only deepens as I look around my room and find it...clean, something that could hardly describe the mess I usually call home. Soft humming catches my attention and I’ve finally solved the mystery...which only brings up more questions.

Kagome.

“I see you’re up” you state entering the room, “that was quite a fall you took yesterday. Would you like to explain? Oh yeah by the way, what the hell are you doing drinking? That’s enough to make you seriously sick! I mean I know you can handle yourself but Sesshomaru that was dangerous. You scared the life out of me yesterday.” You rant and I feel a rare smile reach my lips at your concern...and anger.

“A lot of things have changed since you’ve left. I’ve done things I’m not exactly proud of and I think it’s time for you and I to talk, really talk.” You stare into my eyes as if checking to see if I am serious or not. Looking away you sigh and sit down on the edge of the bed.

“Okay” you say “let’s talk.”

Whoa that was short but sweet nontheless. This was more of a filler though I hate to say it. It does not mean I don't like it, I feel like I made a transition. The next chapter will definitely be longer and be ready for a twist! Only two more chapters left! Anyways review and no flames darlings. Alrighty, on to the next stories. Bye!

Symphony of the Masked Faces

P.S. To those who are wondering, there will not be a third installement of I'll Still Love You. Even though people say thirds a charm, and having a trilogy would be amazing, I don't have the time or patience to do another one. The first installement came from my heart and this one was for the readers and all of those unanswered questions. I appreciate all of you who have read not only these stories but my other ones. Anyways enough with that! See you next chapter
