Hi, this is my first fic that isn't a one shot. Some info for you: Kagome is 15 and Inuyasha is 16 in this story. They live at the shrine with their mum, grandpa and Souta. I'm not sure if I'm gonna use Buyo yet. Does anyone know the name of Kagome's mum? If you do then please put it in your review.

Thanks.

Oh Brother

Chapter 1 – Love him

I stood, waiting for him, for Inuyasha. As always though, he caught me by surprise, creeping up behind me and enveloping me into a huge bear hug. I hugged him back, happy to see him and asked him how his day was. He "mehed" as usual and asked if I wanted a ride home; I smiled at him and clambered onto his back, holding tightly to his long silver locks as he ran.

When we got home it was time for our special little daily routine, cutting his fingernails. Inuyasha's grow ten times as fast as normal peoples' and so have to be cut every day. Dad used to do it after work, but that was before the car crash, afterwards everything changed. Of course, mum tried to be there for both of us, but she was having enough difficult coping with her own emotions at that moment so it was left to me to do it. That is after Inu tried to cut them himself, I found him in the kitchen one day nursing his right hand where he had cut himself. After that I did it every day and soon became proficient at it.

As I cut his nails a lock of ebony hair swung across my face, before I could push it back he had reached out his hand to tuck it behind my ear and as he did so his fingers grazed my cheek. I knew I shouldn't but I felt a fluttery sensation as his skin came into contact with mine. I don't know when, but over the years I've fallen in love with him.

I suppose it started when I found out. I was at the age when you begin noticing things about people around you and noticing the differences between them. My mother was dyeing Inuyasha's hair black again and wasn't paying much attention to me. I asked her, "Mummy why does Inuyasha have silver hair? Why isn't it black like mine?"

"Not now sweetie, mummy's busy" Later I caught her alone and asked her again and that was when I found out Inuyasha wasn't my real brother. That he had been abandoned at birth, found by my mother at the base of the Sacred Tree wrapped in a red cloth with nothing else but a letter asking the finder to look after him. How his silver hair, long nails, dog-ears and high athletic ability were because he was a demon. How the necklace that he always wore, the one with a sword pendant, had been specially created by a jeweller called Totosai to bind his demon nature. How he wasn't my real brother. How he wasn't my brother. He isn't my brother.
