Chapter Seven: Hidden
A/N: Edited on 8/26/15
"What do you mean InuYasha is not home?" Kagome stood in the doorway glaring down at her brother. Souta jumped up and hid behind the table.
"I don't know sis! He never came home!" Souta wailed.
"Maybe he went home himself, Kagome." Eri said.
"Yea! Why didn't he tell anyone?" Kagome huffed.
"Isn't he an adult? He doesn't need permission to go home does he?" Yuka asked.
"Unless Kagome and InuYasha had special plans for the evening." Ayumi smiled.
"Ayumi! InuYasha and I are not in that type of relationship yet!" Kagome huffed.
"Sorry." Ayumi smiled.
"Oh, hello girls are you here to study?" Kagome saw her mother come out of the kitchen, rubbing her hands with a towel.
"Mom, did InuYasha come home?" Kagome asked.
"No dear, he took Souta and you to school and never came home." Her mother gave her a puzzled look. "Why did he not go back?" Kagome was glad her mother knew it was right not to mention the well with her friends' right there.
"I guess." Kagome shrugged. She would have to worry about InuYasha later. She was glad though she did not have to hide his ears, or for being a distraction from their studying.
"Well let's go study; I think your two-timing boyfriend would be a big distraction for me." Ayumi smiled.
"Ayumi for the last time, InuYasha is Kagome's boyfriend, not yours!" Eri snorted.
"Well I do have to agree with Ayumi, he is kind of cute." Yuka said.
"And this is why I didn't want you to meet him." Kagome rolled her eyes.

Kagome looked down at her notes while her three friends sat around her. They all had called their parents and actually got a 'yes' for sleeping over. Kagome now hoped that InuYasha had gone back through the Bone Eater's well so they wouldn't have to bring conflict in their studying.
"What is the first exam tomorrow anyway?" Yuka asked.
"You mean you don't know?" Kagome moaned.
"We said we're going in this as blind as you are." Eri pointed out.
"Oh great." Kagome moaned. Kagome sighed, and leaned back on the wall. She was sitting on her bed while her three friends sat on the floor with their sleeping bags.
"Kagome?"
"Yea, what's the matter Ayumi?" Kagome asked.
"You look sleepy." Ayumi answered.
"Do I?" Kagome yawned. She was tired. Kagome closed her eyes and stretched.
"KAGOME!" InuYasha's voice filled the house and Kagome fell off her bed.
"Oh, InuYasha is home!" Ayumi squealed.
What is he doing here? Kagome thought angrily. She stood up, the weariness she had just felt slipped off her like water.
"Kagome, are you mad at him?" Eri asked.
"Just stay up here, I'll be right back!" Kagome sighed. Kagome stomped down the stairs; this is it I'm going to 'sit' him until he begs me to stop! Kagome huffed thoughtfully.
"What are you doing here?" Kagome snapped at the half-demon that was standing in the doorway. He stood there with his arms crossed, and a narrowed expression on his face.
"Come on, I need to show you something." InuYasha growled.
"Oh no you don't, sit boy!" InuYasha slammed to the ground yelping in surprise. "You're in big trouble! Do you realize you almost caused an accident with a bus? What is your deal InuYasha! I thought…"
"Shut up already! I said I need to show you something and the next thing I know my face is in the ground!" InuYasha hissed.
"Oh, you have something to show me? Put your hat on now! What if my friends come down?" Kagome yelled.
"Damn it wench! I don't have time to screw around! You're coming!" InuYasha suddenly grabbed her by the sleeve and started to drag her outside.
"Hey! What do you think you're doing? Sit! SIT!" InuYasha slammed face first into the dirt. "Since when have you ever thought you can just drag me anywhere you want?" Kagome yelled.
"Bitch! I need to show you something!"
"Sit boy You are so disrespectful! Why would I care if you have something to show me? Since when do you think that dragging me out of my house was going to make me corporate?"
"Will you knock it off?" InuYasha hissed. Before Kagome could shout the command again, he was up his hand over her mouth. "I have something to show and it's important! If you don't want to come then I'm going to gag you and drag you there myself!" Kagome looked at him; he had never been so harsh with her. She pushed his hand away and gave InuYasha a look.
"Fine, make it quick." Kagome felt the tears coming down her face. Why had InuYasha snapped at her like that? It hurt.
"Kagome?" InuYasha's voice had become soft again. "Kagome, oh come on, don't cry!"
"Why are you so mean?" Kagome cried to him.
"I was just, you wouldn't stop 'sitting' me!"
"What is it you want to show me?" Kagome glared at him. InuYasha growled then turned his back heading toward the well house. Kagome gave InuYasha a puzzled look.
"I'm not going back to the Feudal Era when I have three weeks of exams, InuYasha!"
"We're not going back through the well stupid!"
"Then why are we going to the well house?"
"Will you just come and take a look!" InuYasha growled. Kagome wrinkled her nose, but followed the angry half-demon. InuYasha slid the door opened and sniffed the air. He nodded in the direction of the right corner of the well house.
"You can come out now." InuYasha said.
"Hue? You're hiding someone in here?" Kagome snapped at InuYasha.
"No, she came with me." Kagome looked back in the corner, puzzled. She steadily approached and took the candle that had been hanging off the wall and went over to were InuYasha had pointed out.
"Hey, is someone there?" Kagome asked.
"Yes."
Kagome flinched as a small voice came from the corner. The voice sounded like it belonged to a little girl. "InuYasha you kidnapped a little girl?" Kagome yelled at the half-demon.
"No, I saved her life!"
"He saved me from being run over from a bus."
"Oh." Kagome gave the girl a closer look. Why was InuYasha so intrigued with this girl? Suddenly she was staring into two bright blue eyes, and Kagome gasped.
The girl was a half-demon.
"InuYasha, what is the meaning of this?" Kagome cried.
"I found her Kagome, in your era." InuYasha said.
