(fyi I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA)

This is my second inu fanfic...enjoy!

House not home

"Come on!" Her mom yelled from the drivers seat. It poured rain outside as they were stuck in traffic. Kagome looked out the window her face plastered to it looking out over the bridge they were on. While All of This by Blink 182 played on the mixed cd Kagome burned from a friend before leaving America.

"Your just going to raise your blood pressure." Kagome said while her face was still smashed against the window so it came out more smothered sounding like. "Yr jst gon ta ris yr blod prezere."

"I'm sorry dear, I know moving after your dad died has already been difficult."

"Yeah." Kagome said looking down at a polaroid of her and her friends Lucia and Hanon. (mermaid melody lol.)

"Oh I know you miss them." Kagome's mom looked down at Kagome's hands at the picture she was holding.

Traffic moved as they avoided an accident in the middle of the road. The cd replaying All of This after Kagome put it on repeat.

When they arrived the storm was brought down to a wimpy sprinkle.

Kagome got out of the car and looked up at the two story house.

"There you all are!" Kagome's grandpa said appearing from the house, followed by Sota. (he'd been flown to Tokyo before Kagome and her mom.)

Her boxes were lifted out of the car by Sota and herself.

"So did you have a nice trip?" Sota asked innocently.

"Sota mom is inside with grandpa you don't have to play nice."

"Sorry for caring." He said under his breath. Before entering the house she looked up at the sky and closed her eyes letting it drissle on her face to cover the tears.

She collapsed on the matteress and took off her shoes. She'd thought she would pass out after that last box. She took out her phone from one of her boxes and plugged in the phone cord. She dialed Lucia's number, remembering the long area code that came with long distance calls.

"Hello?"

"Lucia?"

"Kagome?!" Lucia's high pitched voice played out over the phone. "So how is everything? Heard about the rain...bummer."

"Yeah."

"So how does it look? Just like America?"

More like hell to me. She thought. "Lets just say its a good thing I know Japanese."

"Aw I'm sorry. Hey, I have to go Hanon is meeting me at the mall. Eat an egg roll for me!"

"Sure. Bye."

"Aloha!" And she hung up.

It tool her hours but Kagome finally unpacked all of her giant boxes. "Kagome dinner!" Her mom called up to her.

While they ate Kagome was silent. Sota was going on about his new friends he met at school. Unfortunately both her and Sota had to start school half way through the school year.

"Kagome are you excited about school tomorrow?" Sota asked expecting Kagome to be in her usual happy tone. Why would I be happy? I had to abandon all my friends and move to this god forsaken place!

"No." She said in a harsh tone, continuing to eat.

"Kagome you should think positively, after all you might make new friends." He mom said.

"I have friends."

"Well what about your new home?" She said trying desperately to cheer up her gloomy daughter.

"Home? Home?! Are you all very stoned?! Our home is back in America where dad and us used to live! Or have you already forgotten dear old dad?? Yeah you know the one, the one who croaked just resently?!" Kagome yelled.

"Thats it. Your grounded!" Her mom said pointing an angry finger at Kagome.

"From what?! The computer with no internet? The tv with no cable? Or from visiting my friends who live thousands of miles away?!" (thanks maoi for the quote...) She got up and threw her chop sticks down on her plate. "I'm excusing myself from this lovely evening of family filled fun." She said with sarcasm.

She ran up to her room. Well I can already tell that this whole moving to Tokyo is going to be a complete disaster! She thought.
