Kagome stood transfixed as her moms car pulled away. She looked up at the huge brick house with it's many windows and chimney stacks. She thought about her dad waiting in the house. She could run away, or walk home, but neither seemed like a good answer. If she ran away she would eventually be found and in deep trouble. If she walked home her mother would be furious and demand to know why she wouldn't stay at her fathers house.

There was no way she could tell. If she told then her father would kill her. He told her every time.

*Good job, Kagome. You were always my girl. You don't have to tell anyone what I've done. It's how daddies show they love their little girls. If you do I'll have to punish you, you wouldn't want that.*

Kagome blinked away tears as she remembered. When she was younger she thought that punishment was just spankings, but as she grew older she realized the look in his eyes was more serious than that.

The door opened and she stood frozen in fear. Instead of her father a young woman came out of the house. For a second Kagome thought that she had gone to the wrong place.

"Kagome? I'm Midori, your dads girlfriend. He's told me a lot about you." She said this all with a smile on her face. Kagome noticed that she was a few inches taller than Kagome and that she was extremely pretty.

"Hi." *When did he get a girlfriend? I don't ever remember mom saying anything about it.* They stood staring at each other for a few seconds. "Where's my dad?"

"Oh, he went to the store to get some food, he'll be back in a couple of minutes I'm sure. How about we take your bag into the house?" Without giving Kagome any chance to say anything she picked up her bag and glided up the stairs and into the house. Kagome swallowed her fear and walked in behind her. "You are as pretty as he told me." Midori commented. "He thinks very highly of you and is excited that you've come to spend the night."

*If daddy has a girlfriend then he must not need me anymore.* She felt her stomach settle some and followed Midori up the stairs and into a guest bedroom.

"Here you are." Midori said as she sat her bag down on the bed. "I'll let you go and I'll call for you when your dad gets home." They smiled at each other and she turned and left the room.

Kagome looked around the room. It was probably one of the smaller guest bedrooms, but she didn't mind. She was only staying for the night and then leaving in the morning. She noticed that this one had a bathroom connected to it and felt grateful. She always hated sharing a bathroom with someone else. Her father liked spending time with her in bathrooms.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

After a half hour Kagome's stomach started to turn again. Where was her father? Was he here? Was he waiting for her to come down? She started to breath really hard and sat in the farthest corner away from the door in the room. Was he angry at her? Everything was much worse when he was.

There was a knock at the door and Kagome flattened herself in her corner, hardly breathing. "Kagome?" Midori's voice floated through the door into the room. "Your father just pulled into the driveway." Kagome felt a little relieved when she knew that he wasn't waiting for her and opened the door to go down the stairs. She would have stayed in her room but she was afraid of making her dad mad.

She slowly descended the old creaky stairs to find her father standing in the living room. He stood a foot taller than Kagome and was wearing a plain blue shirt with jeans. She stopped breathing all together for about a minute. Her father looked considerable different than he usually did. He was a lot more clean. *Probably because he has a girlfriend now.* Kagome thought. He walked over to her all the while smiling.

"How's my Kagome? Well come here and give me a hug." Kagome silently walked over and gave him a small hug.

"Hello, Daddy." His arms wrapped around her and she felt her insides turn to ice.

"How has school been?"

"Fine, Daddy." She let go and took a couple of steps back from him.

"Got a boyfriend?" He eyed her suspiciously like any father would.

Kagome started blushing, thinking of Inuyasha. *Well his not really my boyfriend, so.* "No, Daddy."

"That's good." He said smiling. "You don't need a boyfriend, you've got me." Kagome stared at him in shock.

"Yukio, stop being so mean to her!" Midori laughed.

Kagome kept staring at the two of them laughing. She didn't think it was funny.
