Once again, thanks for all the reviews :) Here you go, this time a more cute chapter.
Inuyasha looked at her, shocked, not knowing what to say.
"Kagome is fine. But she has amnesia", Sota said leaving the from the feudal era coming team uncomprehending.
"Amni what?" Inuyasha asked confused.
"She forgot everything that happened since her fifteenth birthday", Sota explained.
"She doesn't remember me?" Was all Inuyasha could say.
Sota was about to reply, but the door opened and Kagome's friends Yuka, Eri and Ayumi walked inside in a hurry, "Kagome!" "Kagome are you okay?"
Kagome nodded before her three school friends hugged her tight, "I'm fine, thanks."
"Oh, your boyfriend is here too", Ayumi noticed when they let go of Kagome.
"Have you done something to your hair?" Yuka asked, seeing that Inuyasha now had black hair.
"His eyes are different too", Eri added.
"Boyfriend?" Was all Kagome could bring out.
"What? You don't remember him?"
"The doctor said I have amnesia."
"Amnesia? Oh no, Kagome", Eri said in shock.
"At least she couldn't forget too much, she hadn't been in school much after all", Ayumi stated before being hit by Eri and Yuka.
"And you really forgot about your boyfriend?"
"But how can she forget about someone so remarkable?"
"Is that a compliment?" Inuyasha asked, not sure if he wanted to hear the answer.
Ayumi looked at her, "How can you forget your egoistic, annoying, two-timing, violent bad boy boyfriend?"
"WHAT IS KAGOME CALLING ME?"
"I think it's time for us to go now, bye", Eri quickly said and then the three friends left. Kagome looked after them, asking herself what just happened. For a moment, no one said a word.
"Well", Grandfather Higurashi broke the silence, "Come on now Sota, you have to go to bed now."
"Okay. Goodnight sis, Goodnight Inuyasha", Sota said before he and his grandfather walked upstairs.
Kagome's mother smiled at the others, "Please stay for the time being."
"That is very kind of you", Miroku smiled back.
"You have to be Miroku", Kagome's mother noticed.
"I see Kagome has told you about us."
"Yes she has. You have to be Sango, you Kirara and you Shippo."
"Very true. And it's really alright if we stay?" Sango asked.
Mrs. Higurashi nodded and smiled as always, "Of course it is. I believe that with you here she might remember faster."
"So she will remember again?" Miroku asked hopefully.
"Possibly, yes", she said before looking at Inuyasha, "Inuyasha, would you please bring Kagome to bed? The doctor ordered for her to get some rest."
Inuyasha nodded, "Of course."
"And for you four, we have a guest room, I will bring you to it, just follow me", Mrs. Higurashi said before going to the guest room followed by Miroku, Sango, Shippo and Kirara.
Inuyasha gently took her on his strong arms before carrying her upstairs. Arriving in her room, Inuyasha pulled the blanket back, lay Kagome down in her bed and then covered her with the blanket, "Get some sleep", he whispered before sitting down across the room, where he always sat while Kagome was sleeping. As usual he sat there, cross- and arm-legged.
He felt her eyes on him, "I told you to sleep", he said without opening his eyes.
"Do you plan on sitting their the entire night?"
He simply nodded.
"Don't you wanna get some sleep?"
"You need to get some sleep, not me."
Inuyasha opened his eyes when he noticed that Kagome sat down next to him. She had her knees pulled to her stomach, her arms wrapped around them.
At first, neither of them said anything.
"I'm sorry", Kagome sighed, looking down at her feet.
Inuyasha looked at her, "What?"
"Well", she still didn't look at him, "It has to be hard for you... my boyfriend, that I can't remember you."
Inuyasha blushed, "I-I'm not your boyfriend."
"Then why would my friends think so?" Kagome now looked into his for the night brown eyes.
"That's... complicated."
Kagome felt that she wouldn't get him to explain it so she changed the subject, "So your name is... Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha nodded, not taking his eyes off her.
"I've never heard that name before" Kagome stated. Her entire attention belonged to Inuyasha now, waiting for him to explain her why he was given that name.
"Well, it's my name."
"Is that a real sword?" Kagome asked, pointing to Tetsusaiga.
"Yeah", Inuyasha said, hoping she wouldn't ask more questions. He trusted her, but it hurt him knowing that the person he was closest to couldn't remember him. And the fact that it wasn't even sure whether she would ever remember again, such as the fact that there was nothing he could do about it was killing him.
"So... do we like each other?" That question made Inuyasha blush.
What the hell do you think am I going to tell ya? He thought but instead he looked away with his eyes closed and said, "Feh, we don't talk about stupid stuff like that."
Kagome looked at him curiously "Then what do we talk about?"
"Uh... a lot of things... I guess", Inuyasha answered, looking at her again.
Kagome leaned against him, making him blush again, "W-what are you doing?" He asked.
"You know... I'm trying to talk to you, but you don't tell me anything. So I'll just cuddle with you."
"Eh... I told you I'm not your boyfriend."
"But as long as you don't tell me why my friends think that you are I will treat you like one", she explained, closing her eyes to relax a little.
"I can live with that", he told her, thinking about much better she would be treating him then.
"What is that supposed to mean?"
"Nothing!"
"So, are you gonna talk now or what?"
"We spend a lot of time together", Inuyasha said.
Kagome looked down again, sighing.
"Did... I say something wrong?"
"I came into a hospital because I've been hit by a car", she started weakly. Something was wrong. "That really shocked my family."
Inuyasha saw a tear running down her face, "But you're alright now."
She looked at him, "But it brought everything up again..."
"It brought what up?" His voice was softer as it had ever been.
When she answered he was a little shocked by how broken and sad her voice sounded, "My... dad. He... he died in a car accident."
Inuyasha felt his heart breaking. He pulled her into his arms and softly rubbed her back. He never knew. Of course he was always wondering where her father was, but Kagome had never mentioned him so Inuyasha thought she was alright. He always thought that he was the only one who had lost someone they loved, that he was the only one who had been hurt. Kagome always knew that he wasn't over Kikyo's death at all, but he never noticed her pain. That was the moment Inuyasha noticed how little he knew about Kagome. Sure he knew her character, where she lived and a few other things. But until that day he didn't know what happened with her father. Inuyasha was sure that there were even more things he didn't know. And now was the time to get to know Kagome better.
"I had no idea", Inuyasha admitted.
"I noticed how Sota looked at you... I think he really likes you", a small smile came on her and Inuyasha's face.
"He once said I'm his hero", Inuyasha told her.
Kagome nodded, "He never met our father. I'm... glad he found someone to look up to."
"He thought we're in love", Inuyasha said, immediately asking himself why he even told her.
It made Kagome giggle. Inuyasha was glad to feel her happiness again, "You know, it seems to me like everyone thinks that we are, so we must be."
"You can be really annoying sometimes."
She softly hit him, "That wasn't very nice."
"Hitting me wasn't nice either."
"Whatever", she replied before she snuggled up to Inuyasha. And before he could say anything else, she fell asleep making the half-demon smile.
And in the next chapter Kagome will, for the first time since the accident, see Inuyasha in his usual self. How is she going to react?
