Hm, it's 3 A.M. and I'm still studying… I'll just wake up early to study some more…

Kagome set her clock at 6 A.M. But when she turned around to her bed…

"I-Inuyasha…." He was fast asleep. He's been working all day with Sota and Gramps… I can't blame him.

She looked around. We do have a futon somewhere in this house...

She found the futon and set it up in her room.


"Ngh…" Inuyasha woke up. He sat up and looked at Kagome's desk. Where is she?

Then he looked down on the floor. Did she just fall asleep!? He got up and walked over to her.

Man…

He picked her up and walked over to her bed. She deserves to sleep on this bed. Its hers after all.

He put her down and covered her.

Then the alarm went off. "Ack!" He grabbed it and threw it out the window.

Oh no! Damn! I have to go get it back! He jumped after it. Luckily he caught it before it hit the ground. After an hour he turned it off. Fhew..that was close.

Also luckily Kagome didn't wake up. He put the alarm clock down. You work too hard…

He went to the futon. He took off his top kimono and folded it and put it to the side along with he sword. He got inside the futon and stared at his sword.

I feel relaxed. Like I have no worries. There's nothing to worry about, except for Kagome. I'm always worried about her. He closed his eyes. Her lips were rather soft…


"OH NO!"

Inuyasha jumped. "What happened Kagome?!"

"I'm going to be late!" She only had an half hour to get to school. Inuyasha sighed. "I thought it was serious…"

"THIS IS SERIOUS!" She was pacing around the room. "I thought I set my alarm for 6 o' clock.."

What a rude awaking…

"Inuyasha! Come on! You have to take me to school!" She was grabbing his arm to pull him up.

"What? No!"

She kneed next to him. "Please, Inuyasha I need you!" He blushed. Then sighed. "Fine." As soon as he spoke she grabbed his arm and raced out the house.

"W-Wait! My kimono! My sword!"

"You don't need those Inuyasha!" She stopped.

"This world doesn't require fighting with swords all the time…" He stared at her. Then he put her on his back and started running to her school.

Thank you Inuyasha I owe you big time! Now go straight home!" She said as she ran into the building.

Should I go home or wait for her? Nah… I left my sword I'm going back…

"Oh Inuyasha your back." Kagome's mother came to the door way. "I made you some breakfast."

He looked up. "R-Really? For me?" He asked.

"Oh course, why wouldn't I? Your apart of the family now Inuyasha." She gave him a warm smile.

"T-Thank you." He followed her into the kitchen and blushed. "Where's the kid?" He looked around.

"He went to school."

"Just like Kagome?"

She smiled and gave him his plate. "Yes, just like Kagome."

"Its sad, you can't go to school, your too old right? How old are you?" She asked him.

"I'm 20."

Its been a year since him and Kagome have met.

"I ah … I would say I'm 70, because I died long ago, but Kagome brought me back to life. I was dead for 50 years." He looked up at her.

"Oh my, thats a long nap." She giggled.


"When does Kagome get out of school?" He asked while finishing his plate.

"You see that circle up there." She pointed to the wall. "Thats a clock." He looked up and nodded. "A clock…"

"When the little stick is at the 3 and the big stick is at the 12, then its 3 o' clock." He nodded. "Thats the time Kagome get out."

"Oh, alright. How long will that be?"

She smiled. Now she had to explain how time works.

There you have it, do you understand everything?"

"Yeah, thanks!"

"I'm sorry to leave you in the house alone, but I have to go a little shopping, alright?" She grabbed her bag and walked to the door.

He followed her. "You remember how to work the T.V. right?"

"Yes, I do."

"Alright, I'll be back soon." She left and closed the door.

He stood there...

This is kinda scary… I can't leave or go outside. The T.V.! Where is it?

He paced around the house and found the living room.

"Its funny how I remember where the door is at along with Kagome's room, but not the kitchen nor the living room…" He said as he picked up the remote.


"I'm home!" Sota came in.

Inuyasha walked up to him. "Where's Kagome?" He asked.

"She's still in school! I get out a hour before she does." He walked inside the kitchen.

"Oh, so in another hour Kagome gets out?" He followed him.

"Yup."

I guess I could start leaving.

He went upstairs. Where's my hat? My sword…. He looked at it. I don't… I don't really need it. He walked away from it and put on his kimono.

"Are you going to Kagome?" Sota asked.

"Yes."

"Its hot outside. You should leave the top kimono here." Sota pulled on his kimono.

"Really? Fine."

"I'll be back, kid. Don't go anywhere."

"Kay!"

Inuyasha started running to the direction where Kagome's school was at.


"Kagome! Lets go eat something! I'm starving!" Yuka shouted as they started to leave the building.

"Ah, I'm kinda beat. Tomorrow?" She made a fake smile.

"No! We have to talk about that boyfriend of yours!" Eri pulled on her shirt.

"You guys mean him?" Ayumi pointed at Inuyasha standing at the gate.

"I-Inuyasha!" Kagome ran towards him.

Eri, Yuka and Ayumi followed her.

"What are you doing here?" She asked.

"I'm picking you up, what else?" He took her bag.

"But why?"

"Because I want you to come straight home, whats why." He grabbed her hand.

"Oh, thats so sweet of him!" Ayumi put her hands on her cheeks.

"Go get him Kagome!" Eri shouted.

"Yeah!" Yuka put a fist in the air.

Kagome blushed. Urgh you guys…

They both started walking back home.

"Geez, Inuyasha why didja come to my school anyway?

"Cause I didn't want anything to happen to you, thats why."

She looked at him.

"Your always getting into trouble, someones gotta look after you."

"Inuyasha this time period isn't as dangerous as yours."

"Yeah. whatever." Kagome sighed.

"Oh! Kagome what time is it?" He looked at her.

"Its 3:45. why?"

"Urgh! We have to hurry, theres a show I want to watch that comes at 4! Come on!" He grabbed her hand and put her on his back.

"Inuyasha! What show? How do you know about time!?"

"Your mother told me about it."

Mom?

They got to the house. He ran inside.

"I'm ho-ome!" Kagome shouted.

"Welcome home sis." Sota greeted her. "Why was dear Inuyasha running into the living room?" Kagome's mother came to her.

"Theres a show he wants to watch and its about to start."

"Hey! Kagome come! Watch this with me!"

"Inuyasha I can't I have homework and studying to do."

"Well do it in here." Kagome sighed. He had her book bag anyway. "Fine."

"Kagome look. I like this character the most." She turned away from her notebook to the T.V. "And why is that?"

"Because he never gives up! He wants to be a swordsmen!" He looked at her with excitement.

She smiled.


"O wow! I didn't know there was a whole bunch of new episodes! But it called it a 'marathon', right Kagome?" He turned to Kagome.

She fell asleep on the table. Oh, I kept her up after she did her homework…

He shoved all her things into her bag. I feel bad now.

He carried her up to her room. He tucked her in.

He went back to the living room.

"Your still up?" Inuyasha jumped.

"Oh, its you." Kagome's mother was standing there.

She giggled.

"You don't plan on staying inside and watching T.V. all the long, right?" Kagome sat down on the floor.

He sat with her. "Well what else am I suppose to do?"

"You can get a job."

"A job? For what?"

"To get money, I sure do need a little extra money. Do you mind getting one to help with the shrine?" She asked.

"No… I don't." Will this help Kagome?

"It will sure help Kagome out to get into college." He gasped.

"I'll help! I want to help!" He almost shouted.

"Hm! Then its settle we'll both go job hunting tomorrow morning!" She got up.

"Job hunting?" Is that a demon?

"Its a different way to say we're going to look for a job." He got up too.

"Oh," He laughed.

"Now, you have to go to sleep now. Get some rest, its gonna be a big day tomorrow."

She pushed him upstairs.

He got into his futon. This is the only thing I can do to make sure I don't feel useless. He turned around to face his sword. Right, Tetsusaiga?

I'm gonna bring you tomorrow with me, just in case.
