I do not own InuYasha, yall.

Two years ago, I started having nightmares, ones about Onigumo killing me. It was a bloodbath in those dreams. I stopped eating and sleeping and functioning all together. Koga did some spying on me, and the second he realized what was going on, he called a rehabilitation center, and put me in it for anorexia. My mom was away then too, so since Koga was the one to check me in, he was the one to check me out. I was in there all summer almost, save for two weeks.

"Um…can this wait at all?"

He gave me a stern look. "No it can't. What's wrong Kagome? What happened to you?" The stern look was still there, but there was compassion too.

I sighed. "Here's what happened." I relived what happened with Koga to him, the only other person who knows other than Koga. "And you can't tell anyone about this, not even Miroku. No one knows but Koga, and I'd like to keep it that way."

"You haven't told Sango?" I shook my head. "You haven't told Miroku?" I shook my head again. "You haven't even told your mother?" I shook my head. "You are messed up Kagome Higurashi."

"So that means that there's no big purpose to protect me all the time, is there?"

"I only said that you were messed up, not a total wreck." He took me to the living room and put me on the couch. He laid behind me and held me on the couch. "I will protect you as long as I live."

"But, what happens when I defeat Onigumo?"

"I said 'as long as I live, so as long as I'm alive, you will be protected."

"Why?"

He shushed me and I think he fell asleep after that. I soon fell under.

When I woke, InuYasha was still asleep. I got up without waking him. I went into the kitchen and started looking for pans and crap so when he did wake up, he would have food. I was in the middle of making him an omelet with muffins, when the door opened. Into the kitchen came his older brother, Sesshomaru.

He was clueless to my being there until he spoke. "InuYasha, you know how to cook? Who would've thought." He said it loudly, and I didn't want InuYasha to wake up, so I spoke up.

"I don't want to be rude and tell you what to do and what not, but I don't want InuYasha to wake up, so could you maybe, just a little, kind of maybe, not talk as loudly, please?"

His head shot up so fast I was surprised it didn't fall of his neck. "Who are you?" When I opened my mouth to answer, he held up a finger. "Are you Kagome, because you are as beautiful as he says Kagome is. He says that even I would think she was pretty, and you are very much so, so I can only assume you are Kagome."

"I am Kagome." I told him with a little blush dusting my cheeks. "How are you Sesshomaru?" I know him through InuYasha's complaining of him.

"How do you know me?"

"InuYasha speaks of you a lot." I giggled.

"You laugh, meaning he speaks ill of me everywhere. I assure you that I am not this bad person he has most likely painted me as being." He said it with a suspicious look on his face.

I silenced a giggle. "I hope not. He paints you like the worst type of demon." I turned back around to the omelet I was making InuYasha. "Do you want one?" I asked Sesshomaru when I turned back around.

He gave a slight upturn of his mouth. "I'd love one, thank you."

I gave him a look. "What's with the smile? Do you make these really good?" I raised an eyebrow.

He gave a low chuckle. "No, I just want to see how you cook. It doesn't matter though, because anything is better than his cooking." He shivered.

I giggled a little. "I've never had it, so I wouldn't have something to base it off of."

"Let's just say that there should be no operational definition-"

"In order to replicate the experiment." I smiled at him.

He looked surprised and shocked. "You know about replication?"

I put my hand on my hip. "Who doesn't?"

He turned around and pointed a finger at a sleeping InuYasha. "That fool has no clue about anything I say. He needs to get smarter, because I am not getting any dumber."

I giggled. Sesshomaru is funny, I don't know why InuYasha doesn't like him. "Maybe you should help him with that then." I turned around and got out another two eggs for Sesshomaru.

"I've tried, I don't think it works." He was silent for a minute. "You're really smart, could you do it?"

"I think so, he's gone crazy and now you have a house guest for a few months."

"I'm sorry, you'll be staying here?"

"It isn't my choice, no offence, it was his."

He was silent. "I don't mind if you stay here. I like you, Kagome."

"Well, thanks for that." I turned back around and finished InuYasha's eggs, and then fixed Sesshomaru. "Here we go." I put both of the eggs on two plates and set them on a table. The timer on my muffins went off and I got them out of the oven quickly. When I got them out though, I burnt myself a little bit. "Ouch." I put my finger in my mouth to cool it off.

Sesshomaru took my hand out of my mouth and looked at it. He turned his head to look at InuYasha, who was waking up. He turned back to me. "Just trust me." He turned me to the side and he kissed my finger.

"Sesshomaru, get your hands off of her!" InuYasha was wide awake. He ran over and busted between me and Sesshomaru. "Stay away from her." He growled at Sesshomaru.

"She was burnt a little, and I was just helping her get over it." He shrugged his shoulders.

InuYasha turned to face me. "Are you alright? What did he do to you?" He took my cheek in his hand and started looking at my face.

"I'm fine, his story is valid and has credible sources. I did get a little burn on my finger."

"How did you get that?"

Sesshomaru huffed. "Turn around you idiot." Sesshomaru rolled his eyes.

InuYasha turned around and looked at the table with his eggs and muffins. "You did this? You did this for me?"

I smiled. "You do a lot for me, so I figured it would be appropriate. " I shrugged my shoulders.

He smiled back. "So I assume you just forgot Sesshomaru, like I hope you did."

Sesshomaru smirked. "When I entered the room, she asked me if I wanted one, and I did, so there are two."

InuYasha thought for a minute. "Wait, there are three of us, and only two places, we need one more."

"He can do simple math, thank goodness!"

I laughed and InuYasha glared at Sesshomaru. "You know, you could take it and leave." He growled at his brother.

"He doesn't have to do that, InuYasha. If I'm okay with it, I'm sure you can be okay for an hour." I rolled my eyes. "It's fine."

"Not for me though! I don't like him!"

"I don't like you either." Sesshomaru said with distain. "Maybe you should ask Kagome to tutor you. Maybe that's the reason you don't like me because you can't keep up with me."

InuYasha growled at him and Sesshomaru growled back. "Hey, calm down you two. There's food over there, go eat it, not each other."

Sesshomaru gave another slight upturn of his mouth and walked over to the plate and sat down. InuYasha stomped over there. I sat down in between the two of them.

The whole time they were there, they yelled at each other and they were making a mess with my muffins. I rolled my eyes at them and got up and got my phone and sat back down. Sango wanted to know why I was over at InuYasha's house, and I told her that I could be and that I met Sesshomaru.

"You are the dumbest demon I think I've ever met in my entire life!" Yelled InuYasha, standing up, knocking over his chair.

Sesshomaru stood, but with more grace. "If you mean smart when you say dumb, then you are smart!"

InuYasha picked up a muffin. "We'll see who the stupid one is!" He threw the muffin at Sesshomaru. He dodged it and threw a muffin at him right back. The muffin fight got me covered in muffin crumbles.

I stood, right as a knife flew past my face. "HEY! ENOUGH OF THIS!" They both looked over at me. "Both of you, sit down right now." They sat obediently. "My muffins are ruined, I'm covered in muffin, and a knife flew past my face just ten seconds ago. You two need to learn how to get along, and if another knife flies past my face, bad things are going to happen to both of you. I am leaving, and I'll be back when you two get along."

I went out of the room and out the front door. "Wait a minute." InuYasha caught up with me. "I'm sorry we ruined the food you made and the meal you wanted us to have."

"I can tolerate some yelling, but you threw a knife InuYasha!"

He was quiet. "I did almost hit you with a knife, didn't I. I'm sorry about that."

I sighed. "It's okay I guess. Let's go somewhere. Can we go bowling? I haven't been bowling in a while, I like to bowl. Can we go?" I looked up at him with puppy eyes.

"I can't say no to you to begin with, the puppy eyes just make me want to carry you there on my back."

"No thank you, we can walk there. I want to go so badly."

He laughed. "Then let's go." He put his arm around my shoulders and we walked to the bowling ally.

So I lied, this chapter was supposed to go up about an hour ago, but it's still here. It's late anyway, so no one will read this. I hoped you liked it!
