Love Undercover

Chapter: Who’s next?

Disclaimer: I do NOT own the characters of Inuyasha. But, I do get to play around with them.

Author’s note: Thank you so much for all the reviews! You guys are AHH-MAYY-ZING!

“SOMEONE CALL THE POLICE, NARAKU’S DEAD!” A feminine voice streaked. I didn’t know what was going on. Naraku, he sounds familiar. Oh right, he was another rich guy who was well known, cept I didn’t know which rich dude he was. There were so many of them. I couldn’t even keep my mind straight as of right now. Everything was spinning. All I remembered was how my ex-husband was preparing a toast to his wedding and now, he is literally on top of me. My whole body felt numb, the last time I felt his embrace was two years ago. Wait. What?

“You okay?” I can feel his breath on my skin. God, I loved it when he held me. Except that’s all over now, since that french floozy came along.

“Who me? Yeah. Get off me you douche bag.” I scrambled to my feet, crawling out of the table. When I looked around, all the tables were toppled over. Food was spread all over the floor with silverware all over the place. A huge crowd caught my attention, they were crowding over something. Being a curious person, I tip-toed over. There was a man who was shot in the chest. He had a black tuxedo on, but his white button up shirt had a blood stain in the form of a small circle. That was probably where the bullet went in.

“Inuyasha! Inuyasha!” Another familiar voice called out into the crowd. I turned around to see who it was, and I guessed right. It was the floozy. She got up and fixed her hair, then pretended to be all helpless so Inuyasha can come and sweep her off her feet. To my surprise he came to her rescue and took her to the dead man. She secretly scowled as she looked at Naraku. Then, she pretended to faint at the sight of blood, resulting in Inuyasha catching her. People are so ignorant these days.

“Kagome!” I heard my friends calling my name in unison. It was Rin who was at the other end of the table, holding both of her hands to side of her mouth to amplify her voice. Sango was at the right side, looking for me below the table cloth.

“Here!” I called out, suddenly everything went black. I could hear the gunshot over and over again in my head. Then, the sight of my parents dying entered my mind. Once again, everything was spinning and this time I couldn’t remember anything that happened afterwards.

When I woke up, there was a plastic thing covering my mouth and nose. Next to me was a metal stand holding a sack of liquid. I’m guessing its either tranquillizers or painkillers. I felt horrible, so I’m going with the tranquillizers. I stirred; everything was blurry as I opened my eyes. But suddenly, something caught my attention. No one was in the room, except a white haired hanyou sitting on the couch across from me. What the hell is he doing here?

“Oh you’re awake.” The nurse came in wearing a white uniform holding a clipboard. “You fainted yesterday and you were brought to the hospital.” She slowly explained to me.

“So, why is he here?” I asked, raising an eyebrow.

“No one can come in here during non-visiting hours except for family members.” She replied as she looked at the heart rate monitor next to me, then scribbled something down. “You seem to be fine, you blacked out due to a blockage in your bronchi in your respiratory system. The closing of your bronchi resulted in you having trouble breathing.”

“Am I going to die?” I asked.

“No silly.” She smiled back. That’s all I needed to know. But then it hit me, if only family members can come in; why is he in here?

“Why is he here?” I cocked an eyebrow. I peeked over at Inuyasha, his head was down and his arms were folded across his chest. He still had his tuxedo on.

“When we asked your friends if there were any family members you had, they all pointed out to the patient in room 11C. That is your grandpa right?” I nodded. “Well, we went over to his room and asked him if there were any other family members who were close in this area. And he pointed to Inuyasha.”

I grimaced. Out of all the family members Grandpa could have pointed out, he had to point out Inuyasha. He could have said Souta or Kikyo. But no, it had to be him. “Oh okay. Thanks. But, can you tell him to leave now?” I wanted to get him out of my room. Because of him, I’m being drugged in the hospital with a plastic mask on my face.

“Sorry miss. I wish I could, but you are under the age of 22. So you need supervision.” What the hell? I’m 21, and I do not need HIS supervision. He’ll probably strangle me while I sleep for all I know. “For now, you must stay here for a week so we can run some tests.” She smiled as she turned away, closing the light and door behind her. Great, now I’m stuck in here with the man who left me two years ago. And now, he’s getting married in about a couple of months. Life couldn’t get any better than this. I looked at the wall clock, it was 2AM. No wonder that dog beast is asleep. I wanted to move my arms, but they felt weak. They probably drugged me so I would bust out of this hospital. The windows were open and it was getting cold. I tried moving my arms again, but they wouldn’t budge.

ACHOO!

Oh snap. ‘That’s not good’ I thought as I saw Inuyasha stir. His dog ears suddenly perked up and he opened his eyes. Not knowing what to do, I quickly turned my head and closed my eyes. With my eyes closed, I couldn’t see anything. And I was still freezing. Suddenly, I heard footsteps coming near me. The dog beast was probably leaving to go back home with his French fiancé and do some French things with her in bed. Instead, I felt someone taking my blankets from the other end of my bed and paved it over me. It must have been Inuyasha. My entire body felt hot as I tried not to see who it was. Soon enough, the same footsteps walked away and went back to the couch. As I opened my eyes I saw Inuyasha go back to sleep.

“Kagome!” I heard my name being called from outside. Suddenly, there were banging sounds on the door. As if I didn’t have a huge migraine, my friends busted in. Looking outside I saw the sky was blue now, and Inuyasha was gone. But when I looked at the door, the floozy was clinging onto him.

“You know, there is something called knocking.” I stated.

They all smiled at me. “Kagome, are you okay hun?” Ayame asked worriedly.

“I’m fine. Don’t worry about me.” I tried to hide my headache through the smile I made. Except that didn’t work out, why do best friends have to know you so well?

“You are not fine. You look like you’re going to die. Oh my poor Kagome.” Rin sniffled, dramatizing everything.

“No worries, they just drugged me. And, I’ll be out by the end of the week. The doctors have to do some scans.” I replied, as I looked at Geneviève and Inuyasha. The floozy was now hugging Inuyasha as if there was no tomorrow. “Can you two get a room?” I asked glaring at the silver haired hanyou.

“Kagome dear. You must rest, and Inuyasha and I will watch over you.” She suggested, for a second there I thought she was worried. Oh wait, never mind, it was her fake helpless face again. There was no way in hell she's staying in this room.

“No thanks.” I muttered turning the other way. If I wasn’t paralyzed I would have uppercut her by now.

“Kag, this is the only place where we can hide from the paparazzi. So, we’re staying here.” A masculine voice spoke out. It was Inuyasha, and he was helping her. Figures.

“Ugh fine. But if you two plan to make babies in here, please refrain yourself.” I hissed. The only reason I’m in here was because of those two. Before they came along, I was fine. Minding my own business, and working in my little café shop with my best friends. But now, my café is being ran by God knows who. And, I’m being hospitalized and feel as if I’m harboring fugitives.

“We’ll have lots of time for that.” The floozy purred into Inuyasha’s ear. Inuyasha smiled as he looked at her, then pulled away. Gag me.

“Everyone please, visiting hours are almost over. Only family members are allowed in here.” The doctor came in with a white coat. Holding a clipboard just like the nurse, he shooed everyone out and then stopped in front of Inuyasha. As he smiled at Inuyasha, he questioned if he was a family member. For all I know, he nodded and gave special permission for Geneviève to stay as well.

“Ms. Higurashi is it?” He asked as he pushed a button on the wall, making my bed incline.

I nodded, as I looked at Inuyasha. He knew I hated the doctors, ever since we watched HOUSE MD. together, I would cringe at the sight of the surgical procedures. “So, I have trouble breathing right?” I asked.

“Yes, your respiratory system is fairly weak. We did a checkup on your medical records and it shows that you have been having blackouts for about two years now.” Shit. Inuyasha was NOT suppose to know that. When I looked at him, his eyes flared.

“Oh well.. um..” I stuttered.

“Did you experience any pains or sudden attacks for over the past two years?” He asked, scribbling notes into his clipboard.

Yeah well there's my husband, leaving me for some other girl before the floozy two years ago. And then, when he came back he denied everything that happened, when it was clearly on the news. And so, we immediately filed for divorce and apparently, my friends don’t think I’m over him yet. Subsequently, my café is probably trash and he is now back in my life. “Nope” I shook my head.

“This is weird, this type of blackouts should only happen if the patient experienced shock or pain.” He examined my face one again.

“Haha, yeah. Weird isn’t it?” I nervously laughed. “Well I think I’m fine. It just happened because of the chaos that ensued before. Doctor, I’m sure I’ll be fine.”

“Ms. Higurashi, I’m sure if we take you off of painkillers you will continue to have headaches.”

“Well then I guess I’ll have to deal with it.” He was giving me a headache now.

“Ms. Higurashi, we strongly advise you to stay until the end of the week.” He replied.

“No.” I shook my head.

“She will stay as long as she needs.” Inuyasha butted in. Who the heck does he think he is?

“No I will not.” I argued back at him.

“Your family member says yes, so I’m sorry Ms. Higurashi you will have to stay.”

Inuyasha smirked as the last sentence came out of the doctor’s mouth. He probably loved to see me suffer. And on top of that, he probably wanted me to witness him and the floozy having make out sessions. As if I didn’t see enough already. When the doctor walked out, the floozy gestured Inuyasha towards the couch and complained that she was hungry. When the nurse came in with my food, she opened it and my stomach growled. I didn’t get to eat anything yesterday since I came late, and now I’m starving. “Thanks” I smiled as I tried to lift my arm. Great, I’m crippled and now I can’t even feed myself.

“Would you like me to get someone to help you?” She asked.

“No I don’t like strangers feeding me.” I said, then thanked her. After she left it was just me and the couple alone in the room. I was starving, hopefully God will work his special powers and make the food magically pick itself up.

“Why aren’t you eating?” Geneviève asked, raising an eyebrow. There is no way I’m telling her I’m crippled. Knowing that I can’t move a muscle in my body, she’ll probably put on a show with Inuyasha until I gag to death.

“Not hungry.” I snapped.

“Really? Then can I eat your food?”

“No.”

“But why?”

“No.”

“Kagome, if you’re not going to eat it. Give it to her. She’s hungry.” Inuyasha added, looking at me. Can he be anymore of a jerk? I can’t even more a muscle and now he’s telling me to give my lunch to Geneviève.

“Fine.” I gave in. I might as well rot to death here, staying in here with them is like a hell hole. I just want to go home. As the floozy looked at the food, she raised an eyebrow and held her nose.

“This is food?” She asked, picking at the mash potatoes.

“Yes.” I nodded, I loved mash potatoes. There were also a Salisbury steak on the plate as well. My mouth watered as I stared at the food. Hey, it wasn’t gourmet food but at least it could fill my stomach.

“I don’t want it.” She turned her head and flipped open her cell. After speaking some French, fifteen minutes later three guys came in. They wheeled in a small table with a velvet red tablecloth on it. After setting up two candles on each side and a silver platter with a covering over it, they left. As Geneviève lifted the silver covering, there was pasta on the dish; adorned in greens, minced meat and cheese. It smelled delicious. Suddenly she came over and took my food, then proceeded to throw it away in the trashcan. I watched as the couple ate, Inuyasha eyed me as she fed him. I had no idea what he was looking at but, to my surprise he sorta looked worried. Nevermind, it was just my imagination. He then started to feed the floozy.

“Kagome you haven’t eaten for a week.” Inuyasha came up to me holding a smoothie. By the looks of it, it was a watermelon smoothie. It was pink and had little ice chunks in it. The truth is, I have been ‘eating’. Well, drinking. No, not the ‘alcohol lets have sex drinking’. More like, apple juice or orange juice. In the middle of the night, I would ask the nurse to bring me a cup of orange juice or something. Since I couldn’t move my arm to eat. And now, surviving on pure juice is starting to make me dizzy. I need something to chew on. But, sadly, I still can’t move my arms.

“Inuyasha.” I glared at him. “If I can move my arms, then maybe I can stuff some food in my mouth.” He looked dumbfounded. Being a rich and famous heir, he doesn’t seem that smart. I can’t believe I once married him.

“You can’t move? Wench, don’t play with me.” He stared back, snarling this time. “Why didn’t you tell me?”

“I have a name you know. You can’t call me wench anymore.” Ah.. the name callings in high school. “Well maybe if you and your stupid fiancé would stop caring so much about yourselves and ask me if I needed help…” I was about to finish my sentence until he cut me off. He took his cell phone out of his worn jeans and pressed a number. Seems like the floozy was on speed-dial.

“Hello? Geneviève, I have a surprise for you.” He smiled as he took out his credit card. He’s such a rich snob. Just like every other rich person in the world, he thinks money can buy love. “Yes yes, tell Miroku to bring you to the jewelry store. And, you can pick out anything you want. I’ll see you then. Bye.” After he pressed the little red button on his phone I cocked an eyebrow. Don’t they have pet names for each other? Like baby, or in the floozy’s case…bébé? Then he stepped outside and stopped a nurse while she was walking down the hall. As soon as the woman in white uniform saw him, she did a little “OMGAH” then started acting all lovey dovey. Finally, nodded and skipped off to god knows where.

“What happened?” I asked.

“Nothing.” He retorted back. Talk about being stuck up. Fifteen minutes later, the same nurse who went gaa-gaa over him came back with a tray of food. After she set it in front of me she winked at Inuyasha and closed the door.

“Err..” Does he plan to make me suffer again? I’m sorta getting tired of being his happiness this whole week. “What the heck are you doing? Can’t you see I’m crippled?”

“Did anyone ever tell you that you’re so annoying?” He smirked at me.

“I can say so yourself.” I glared at him.

“You nag more than my grandmother”

“Like you were the perfect husband.” I rolled my eyes. He then opened the silver covering on the plate and there were mashed potatoes. My favorite. He then broke the plastic wrapping that secured the spoon and dug into the mash potatoes.

“Stop talking. And eat.” He jabbed the spoon into my mouth.

“What the hell are you doing?!” I exclaimed. There is no way he is going to feed me. Too late, he put the spoon in my mouth and I screamed once again. The god dam potatoes were like a thousand degrees.

“Oh, my bad.” He laughed. Haha, very funny.

“Ex-husbands these days.” I rolled my eyes once more. Not only I’m hungry, but I probably have a third degree tongue burn. He then tried once again, but instead he blew on the mash potatoes before putting it in my mouth. As I opened my mouth he took the spoon and gulped down the mash potatoes. That mofo.

“Wow, that was good!” He chuckled then took another scoop and ate it.

“I should have known better.” I muttered. But suddenly, he scooped a little more out of the plate and blew on it once again. But this time, he put the spoon in my mouth. I blushed slightly as I swallowed the food. This continued for about another fifteen minutes. This will be the last time he’ll be doing that.

“Don’t tell Geneviève.” He stared at me. “I’m only doing this because you’re crippled.” Wow, thanks for the pity.

“I don’t need your pity.” I groaned. As soon as I get out of the hospital, he is so dead. I then changed the topic. After what happened, I didn’t want to talk to him anymore. But, since we’re in the same room and he can’t leave yet, I was screwed. “Who’s Naraku?”

“He is CEO of a trading corporation. I forgot which, but he was the one who was shot.”

“Thanks Captain Obvious, no wonder why I was seeing his name all over the papers.” I rolled my eyes.

“Well Ms. Know It All, we don’t know who shot him. But police said that the murderer left some letter before running away.”

I widened my eyes. “The guy who shot him RAN AWAY? So everyone’s lives are in DANGER?”

“Calm down wench. The police is on it.”

“Oh yeah, just like how they took about two years to find the other murderers.” I snapped. “What did the letter say?”

“He was after all the other CEO’s.” He replied, flipping through a newspaper.

“For what? Money?” I asked.

“Not sure. Probably. But, he posted a list up online. And now, everyone is freaked out. Business leaders won’t even leave their homes. And security has been pretty tight.”

“Who’s next on the list?” I wondered, this serial killer is serious.

“Its posted up online. I can check if you want.” He then whipped out his Blackberry once more and started typing into his phone. Five seconds later he explained to me that he goes for three people at once. On the night where he was supposed to kill them, he chooses one out of the three at random. Then, he kills them. This guy should have been here instead of me. “So far, two CEO’s were killed. Naraku and one other guy, who isn’t confirmed yet.”

“ANSWER ME.” I exclaimed.

“Calm down woman. The next three people are Jiro, Manji, and…” Inuyasha suddenly paused and looked at me with his golden eyes. “Inuyasha” he stated.
