As I packed my bag up for the trip home I could hear Inuyasha stomping his foot impatiently by the door. "Why don't you go, I'll just meet you by the well," I told him.

"Why do we even have to go back to your time? It not like this Christmas thing is a big deal," He huffed clearly not wanting to go, but he was going whether he liked it or not.

"It is a big deal Inuyasha, and you are going that's final," I sighed putting the last of my things into my big yellow backpack. I stood up, brushed the dirt off of my skirt, and picked up my bag. "Let's go before we are late for dinner, you know how my mom hates when were late."

I could hear Inuyasha muttering to himself as we walked to the well. I could hear things like "Stupid wench," and "She's gunna get it," but I disregarded it not wanting him to ruin my Christmas.

Since it was late December the weather began to become colder. There was a chill in the air when we reached the well, and it made me shiver. I threw a quick glance in Inuyasha's direction to see him taking off his robe of the fire rat. "Here," he handed me the robe. "You don't need to be getting sick."

"Uh... thanks Inuyasha," I could feel my face become hot as I blushed. He just nodded in response, and jumped into the well.

I stood there for a few moments wondering why he did that, and then quickly jumped into the well after him. Once on the other side Inuyasha helped me out of the well, and we began to walk towards the house. As we walked I noticed little white specs slowly making there way to the ground. "It's snowing!" I laughed happily.

"Keh, it's just snow there's nothing special about it," he scoffed.

That was it, he ruined my good mood. I stopped dead in my tracts, and looked at him with disgust. "You know what Inuyasha?" his ears clung to his head hearing the anger in my voice. "You have been nothing but rude and obnoxious, and I have had enough of it. This is my Christmas, and you are not going to ruin it. If you don't want to be here fine, leave then!" I yelled in his face I stormed into the house.

When I was inside I threw Inuyasha's stupid robe on the floor, and stomped furiously up the steps. "Kagome where are you going?" I heard my mom's curious voice ask. "Dinner will be ready shortly. Will Inuyasha be joining us?"

I stopped and turned to face her. "I don't know, and I don't care. I'll be in the shower," I mumbled as I went into my room, and slammed the door.

I quickly rifled through my drawers looking for a pair of pajamas, but found none. I sighed knowing everything was probably in the wash so I went into my mom's room to borrow a pair of hers. As I went through her drawers all I found was my pink nightgown I had gotten last Christmas. I just agreed to that, and went into the shower.

While I undressed I noticed the various bruises all over my body. We had been in so many battles in the last few weeks that I wasn't surprised I found them. I stepped into the steaming hot shower letting the hot water hypnotize me. The soothing water slowly unknotted my joints, it felt amazing.

When I had finally soaked up all the hot water I knew it was time to get out. I quickly dried myself off, and put on the pink spaghetti strap nightgown I found. It came just above my knees, and had lace along the bottom. When I was dressed, and put my hair into a ponytail I went downstairs. I found Inuyasha sitting on the couch talking with Sota.

"Hey sis, wanna play video game with me and Inuyasha?" he asked in his usual happy-go-lucky tone.

I looked at him then Inuyasha, and then back to him. "Hm!" I stuck my nose up in the air, and went into the kitchen to help my mom. "Hello Kagome are you alright?" she had a look of curiosity on her face.

"No stupid Inuyasha put me in a bad mood. He's always so grumpy and rude, he pushing me to my limits," I made sure he heard the stupid part.

"I'm sure he'll loosen up a bit as the holidays go on, I wouldn't worry," my mom said smiling her brilliant smile.

"I guess, do you need help with anything?" I asked making my way over to the stove.

"No I am just about done here. Boy's it's time to eat!" she yelled into the living room placing platters of food on the table. This was going to be an awkward dinner.
