Chapter 3

Inuyasha went home holding down his cap to make sure it doesn't fly off. His cap protected him in so many ways that no one knows of. Keeping secrets, secrets. Holding in the truth from everyone.

When Inuyasha got home his mother was waiting for him at the door to the house. "You were with her I suppose?" His mother assumed. He smiled, a crooked smile, then nodded.

"Yeah, she's awesome mother." Inuyasha sighed. His mother laughed.

"Really, what's so great about her?" His mother asked.

"Everything, she's funny, when she's not even trying, she's beautiful, she's nice, caring, sweet, awesome in every way. And she doesn't question the unnatural things I've been doing." Inuyasha explained.

"Well it sounds like you like her. Have you kissed her yet?" His mother asked.

"Um...yeah." Inuyasha blushed. His mother laughed.

"Wow, you are embarrassed to tell your mother this." She laughed quietly. "Am I going to ever meet her? Or know her name of that matter?" She questioned.

"I'm not sure if you can handle her name but, if everything goes well I have to let her meet you." Inuyasha answered sitting on one of the blue chairs on the yellow porch.

"Well then, when will that be?" She asked.

"I don't know I have to see if she's okay with meeting you. And when you are at your most open minded point, possibly when you're drunk." He answered.

"I'm never drunk. And it sounds to me, that you think I won't like her." His mother stated.

"That isn't true remember that night we went to Can Coon and you drank like three bottles of wine 'cause dad missed your anniversary? And yes that is exactly it mom." Inuyasha answered.

"Why do you think I won't like her?" She was clearly ignoring the fact that Inuyasha was right about being drunk.

"Her name." Inuyasha answered.

"Ah, I see it all leads back to her name. Well once I find out what her name is I'll prove you wrong." His mother pointed out.

"Sure you will." Inuyasha laughed then got up and said, "I'm hungry." And with that he walked into the kitchen. He ate a lot more than usual because he was nervous since he was going to Kagome's house tomorrow. It was like there was a war going on and he was stepping out of the safety zone.

"So, you plan on ignoring Kagome today?" Miroku asked Inuyasha during fourth period. Since yesterday Inuyasha supposedly wasn't talking to Kagome.

"Yup." He answered.

"Good luck. I knew you liked her before. You shouldn't let your parents keep you apart." Miroku whispered as the teacher walked by.

"Yeah, well she hates me so I hate her back." Inuyasha lied.

"Right, um... well I asked Sango out yesterday." Miroku admitted.

"Really, what did she say?" Inuyasha asked.

"Maybe. She's just playing a mind game but, I'm still worried it's a no." Miroku answered sadly.

"She'll say yes, that's for sure." Inuyasha answered scribbling something in his notebook.

"What are you writing?" Miroku asked looking over Inuyasha's shoulder.

"Nothing." Inuyasha answered quickly closing his notebook.

"Okay that was weird, well um..." Miroku started but was interrupted my the bell.

"Later." Inuyasha said then ran out of the room. His red cap almost falling off, but luckily it didn't.

He ran out to the back of the school where he'd meet Kagome. Kagome wasn't there yet so he sat down and started to eat. The back door opened and the small girl with black hair walked out.

"Hey Kagome." Inuyasha said.

"Hi." Kagome said then kissed him. Inuyasha was for once caught off guard. He wasn't sure what to do since he was never taken by surprise.

"What I'm living in the moment." Kagome smiled as she pulled away.

"Sorry it's just, no one has ever done that to me. I was never caught off guard." Inuyasha responded.

"Oh, cool I'm the first!" Kagome exclaimed happily. Inuyasha kissed her in the middle of her happy dance.

Once they pulled apart Inuyasha smiled, "I won." Kagome looked at him confused then he explained, "I caught you by surprise and in the middle of your happy dance."

"Ha ha, funny. I win 'cause I was the first person to surprise you." Kagome fought back.

"Chill girl, I'm just kidding you won. Happy?" Inuyasha caved.

"No, you caved to easy. Anyway, um...so you're coming home with me right?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha paused.

"Yeah, if you still want me to." Inuyasha answered.

"Okay I stopped by the blockbuster across the street this morning and picked out few random movies and a chocolate moose cake. It just looked so good!" Kagome explained happily.

"Okay cool." Inuyasha said then they both ate their lunches and went back inside.

"Inuyasha come on!" Kagome called smiling skipping ahead of him. Inuyasha laughed.

"I'm right behind you." Inuyasha mumbled. Kagome turned around and smiled.

"I know." She smiled then turned back around and continued skipping.

"Are you always this bubbly, hyper, and cheerful when you're walking home?" Inuyasha asked running just a little to catch up with Kagome.

"No, well not always. I have been lately. I'm not quiet sure why." Kagome lied. She knew why, because she started to like Inuyasha.

"Wow, so why are you now?" He asked.

"I don't know maybe it's because you're coming to my house or maybe the fact that there is a chocolate moose cake in my back pack." Kagome answered cheerfully.

"Right, well are we almost there, 'cause to be honest you're starting to get annoying." Inuyasha muttered.

"Sorry, I didn't mean-" But then again taken by surprise Inuyasha kissed her on the lips.

"It's okay, I'm just saying it's starting to." He said once they broke apart.

"Still I'm sorry. And yes my house is right here." Kagome said pointing to a big one story white house. It was small looking on the out side but huge in the inside with all white walls except Kagome's baby blue room and her brother's, Sota's, room which is green. Kagome opened the door and lead him in.

"Are you nervous?" Kagome asked standing at the doorway. Inuyasha hasn't moved from the walk way to the front door.

"No, well kind of. Honestly I've never been in a girl's house before." Inuyasha admitted. Kagome smiled.

"I'll be your first then. Come on, we are just going to watch a movie." Kagome replied grabbing Inuyasha's hand and pulling him in her house. Inuyasha tensed up but didn't resist. He looked calm even if it was only on the outside.

"Just a movie?" He asked as he looked around the room. Maple dinning table, small kitchen, blue and white couches in the living room, then there was a small room. This small room had white walls, most like the other rooms, but it was a step lower, it had cream colored carpet, a red couch, medium sized TV with a small dvd player.

Inuyasha was in awed when he was this room. It was just so cute. All fitting and nice.

"This is my favorite room." Kagome mentioned as they sat down. Kagome pulled out the movie and the chocolate moose cake. She gave the cake to Inuyasha as she placed the movie in the dvd player and started the movie. Inuyasha handed her the cake as the movie began.

Kagome ate her chocolate moose cake on the couch next to her new boyfriend, Inuyasha. They were at Kagome's house while her parents were out and her brother at his friends. They bought cake and a cheap movie. Inuyasha insisted he didn't want any cake so Kagome ate the cake getting her fingers all dirty even tough she had a fork.

"Are you sure you don't want any?" Kagome asked Inuyasha. He smiled.

"Sure." Inuyasha answered. Then took Kagome's hand then licked off the chocolate from the tips of her fingers. Kagome giggled.

"No I meant cake. Like a piece of cake." She laughed Inuyasha smiled seeing her laugh made him very happy.

"No I don't want any cake...I want something else." He answered looking at her lips. Kagome blushed.

Then he kissed her, so passionately that even though it wasn't a surprise kiss it still left her shocked. Inuyasha smiled then she kissed him.

"Kagome, I'm home!" Kagome's father yelled walking through the door of the main entrance. Kagome turned to Inuyasha who was sitting there blinking rapidly, obviously confused of what to do.

"Hide." She whispered then turned to see her father staring at her blankly. She thought that maybe Inuaysha was still sitting next to her and turned to check. He was gone.

"Why is there so much cake on your face?" He asked getting a wet paper towel and wiping her face clean form all the chocolate. Kagome sat there not moving from the shock of Inuyasha disappearing so fast.

"Okay um...I'm going to go to my room now. Well...bye!" She said quickly running up the stairs to her room. She almost screamed when she opened the door and found Inuyasha reading something on her bed. He jumped and dropped the book when she opened the door.

"Calm down it's just me." Inuyasha whispered.

"I thought you left? Wha-wha-what were y-you reading?" Kagome asked, Inuyasha laughed at her nervousness.

"I wouldn't leave with out saying good bye. And I wasn't reading. I was just looking at the pages. Did you draw these?" Inuyasha asked lifting up my blue sketch book. Kagome blushed.

"Um...yes."

"They're great. Why didn't you ever finish this one?" Inuyasha asked as he lifted up a picture of a girl crying in the rain.

"I uh...never finished it because I wasn't sad anymore. My life changed that day and I stopped working on it, plus my dad told me to stop. He says I shouldn't draw I should be going to business classes instead." She replied getting more nervous.

"Well I think they're really good. You should go to art class instead. Plus your dad isn't always right. He doesn't like me but you do. Don't you?" Inuyasha explained.

"Yeah, you're right. Well I guess you should go, um...and I do like you, a lot . I'll see you at school." She answered then kissed him good bye.

"I'll see you tomorrow." He said before jumping out the window.

Kagome smiled watching Inuyasha leave. Then just as Inuyasha left her street, Kagome's mother walks into her room. She smiles as if she new something Kagome didn't.

"Who was that boy?" Kagome's mother asked, smirking.

"Wha-what b-boy?" Kagome asked stuttering. Kagome sat on her blue bed and looked at her mother in a yellow sweater and navy blue skirt.

"The boy that just jumped out your window, he had silver hair, red cap, and looked about your age. Come on tell me who is he?" Her mom begged.

"Alright, he's my boyfriend." Kagome answered.

"Really, what's his name?" She asked.

"I'm not sure if I should tell you." Kagome whispered.

"Okay, will I ever meet him?" Her mother asked.

"Eventually." Kagome muttered.

"Right well, when do you think I can?" Her mother smiled.

"I don't know I have ask him. I'm not going to push him into coming here just to make him uncomfortable." Kagome answered more like she was thinking out loud.

"Right well I would like to meet him." She stated then walked out the room. How was Kagome going to ask Inuyasha if he wants to meet her mother, who was suppose to hate him.

"Kagome, my uh...my mom wants to meet you." Inuyasha said the next day. It was Friday and seven thirty in the morning. Inuyasha called Kagome last night and told her to meet him in the back of the school.

"Really? Um...my mom wants to meet you too." Kagome responded, sighing in relief.

"Okay any day but..."

"This weekend." They both said at the same time then they both asked, "Why?"

"I have some dinner to go to." Kagome answered.

"Me too." He replied.

"Wow, what dinner?" Kagome asked.

"I don't know it's a company dinner thing." Inuyasha muttered.

"Me too!" Kagome exclaimed.

"So I guess I'll see you there." Inuyasha winked.

"Yeah," Kagome smiled then they parted and started to walk to school.
