Konnichiwa minna-san!!!!! Gomen nasai about the wait. I've been working on
my book report and some other crap for school. I'm still not finished with
my book report either. I was reading The Queen of the Damned by Ann Rice
and I LOVED IT!! THAT BOOK WAS AMAZING! Now I just have to watch the movie!
That should be interesting...
Okay, I'm gonna shut up now so you can go and read the chapter. I really hope you like it. It may seem a little short and boring but I was running out of ideas! I think it's long enough so if you don't think so, please send in some ideas that could help make the next chapter longer and more exciting.
Ja ne,

Chapter 10 One Hell of a Confession
"Kagome dear!" Mrs. Higurashi called.
"Yes mom?" Kagome walked into the kitchen and put down her bag.
"You've been gone for a while. Would you like me to draw you a bath before lunch?"
Kagome yawned and nodded. "Yes please."
"Okay. I'll go start your bath for you." Mrs. Higurashi walked out of the kitchen up to the bathroom while Kagome walked up to her room.
"Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha looked up from his sitting spot, which was against Kagome's bed. "What is it Kagome?"
"I'm gonna go take a bath so you can stay up here and rest if you like."
Inuyasha nodded. "When's lunch?"
"After I take my bath." Kagome stated as she began walking out of the room. "Oh, before I forget," she stopped and turned, "my mom still doesn't know about what happened and I would like it to stay that way."
"Why?"
"Because if I told her, she might freak out and say that I can't go the feudal era anymore." Kagome said, a little sorrow noticeable in her voice.
"I promise I won't tell her."
Kagome smiled. "Thank you. Oh, also, I need to put new bandages on after my bath. Do you think you could help me with that?"
Inuyasha blushed slightly but nodded in reply. With another smile, Kagome walked out of her room.
***********************
"Oh, Kagome dear," Mrs. Higurashi said as Kagome walked into the bathroom, "I didn't know if you wanted a lavender scented bath or melon scented so I'll let you decide."
"Thanks mom." Kagome said as her mother walked out, closing the door behind her.
**********************************
As Kagome removed her clothes and put them in the corner, she looked at her side, deciding whether or not to take off her bandages or not.
"I won't take them off. Inuyasha might yell at me." Kagome thought as she slipped into her bath.
She stayed in the bath for about an hour, just enjoying the warm water.
"This feels so good! I'm so glad I came home for a few days. I wonder how long Inuyasha will stay. I at least want to stay for a week." Kagome thought as she started planning some activities for them to do during their break from shard hunting.
As she dried off and slipped into some clean clothes that her mother had laid out for her, she remembered that she had to call her friends later and make sure that they got home safely. She also had to tell them that she was coming to school the next day, despite the fact that the wound on her side hadn't healed yet. It was also healing slower than usual. The smaller cut that was on her arm was now completely healed. You wouldn't even be able to tell it was even there if you didn't get up close. Then you would be able to see a fairly large scar. It wasn't much, but it would always be there.
"I hope nobody decides to hug me or grab me tomorrow." Kagome muttered to herself. Then she thought about gym class. "Crap! I can't make an excuse! If I did, they would send me to the nurse.....or worse....they'll find out and tell my mom! Oh well." She sighed mentally. "I'll just deal with it."
With that last thought, she walked out of the bathroom and into her room.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome walked quietly into her room just in case Inuyasha was asleep; which he was. He was leaning against Kagome's bed, slightly leaning forward and hiding his face under his bangs, giving him a peaceful look. Not wanting to disturb him, Kagome decided to call her friends first.
*****************************
"Moshi, moshi." Yuka said as she picked up the phone.
"Hi Yuka!" Kagome said cheerfully. "Did you get home okay?"
"Yeah. I just told my mom that I stayed at your house to help you while you were sick with the flu." her friend replied calmly.
"And she believed you?!"
"At first she didn't, but I'm pretty good at lieing so it was no problem."
"That's good!" Kagome sighed in relief. She was sure that her friends would get in trouble for "skipping" school, but apparently she was wrong.
"So, are you coming to school tomorrow?" Or is Inuyasha going to make you stay at home and rest?" Yuka asked curiously.
"I'm actually planning on coming to school." Kagome said as if it was the only choice she had. "I know it's not the best thing to do right now, but my mom doesn't know what happened. What would I tell her?"
"I guess you're right." Yuka said thoughtfully. "Just don't put too much strain on yourself. You're still healing, after all."
"I know." Kagome sighed. "Well, I'm gonna have to talk to you later Yuka." "Okay, bye!"
With that, Kagome hung up the phone and turned to wake Inuyasha.
"Inuyasha." Kagome whispered, pushing him slightly.
"What?" Inuyasha asked groggily.
"Lunch is almost ready."
At the mention of lunch, Inuyasha's face brightened. "Lunch?"
Kagome nodded. "I just need to change my bandages. You don't need to help me if you don't want to, you know."
"I told you that I would help you." Inuyasha said looking at her.
Kagome smiled. "Thank you Inuyasha. I'll be right back." She left the room and went downstairs to go get the extra bandages that were in her bag.
************************************
When she go downstairs to the kitchen to get her bag, her mother walked in from the other room.
"Oh, Kagome." her mother said cheerfully. "Would you like some lunch now?"
Kagome quickly grabbed her bag. "Umm.......not yet mom. I'm gonna go and put my stuff away. I'll be down in a few minutes." Kagome ran back upstairs and into her room.
Sighing heavily, she put her oversized yellow backpack in a corner beside her desk.
"What's wrong Kagome?" Inuyasha asked curiously as Kagome sat down beside him.
"My mom caught me grabbing my bag. I thought she was going to ask me about it."
"Well, let's change your bandages so we can go and eat lunch." Inuyasha said.
Kagome nodded and grabbed the extra bandages and antibiotics out of her bag. Putting them down, Kagome lifted up her shirt to her bra line.
"Kagome," Inuyasha said as he removed her old bandages, "your wounds aren't healing as quickly as they should be."
"I was wondering why the pain in my side never went away......" Kagome looked down at the wound on her side as Inuyasha put some of the antibiotics over the healing wound.
Being oblivious to anything going on outside of Kagome's room, they didn't hear Mrs. Higurashi coming up the stairs.
"Kagome, Inuyasha, lunch is ready!" Mrs. Higurashi said as she opened the door to her daughter's room. When she saw the healing wound on Kagome's side, she freaked. "Oh my god! Kagome what happened?!" Mrs. Higurashi rushed towards her daughter, shoving Inuyasha out of the way.
"Mom, it's nothing. I'm fine." Kagome said trying to push her mother off of her. "Mom, really! I'm fine! Can you please leave and let Inuyasha finish putting the bandages on?"
At the mention of Inuyasha, her mother's eyes flashed and she turned and glared daggers at him. "How could you let this happen to her?!" Mrs. Higurashi yelled.
"Mom!" Kagome never yelled at her mother, but blaming Inuyasha for something that he couldn't pervent was unbearable. "Leave him alone!! It's not his fault!"
"Kagome, he should've been there to protect you!" her mother yelled back. "I have every right to yell at him!"
"No you don't!!" Kagome slammed her fists onto the floor, tears starting to fall from her dark brown eyes. "You have no right to yell at him. I know Inuyasha. If he had been there, he would've done everything he could to save me. I trust him with my life."
Inuyasha was shocked. Nobody had ever defended him before.When Kagome turned and smiled at him, he couldn't help but smile back.
"Kagome, I'm sorry I yelled." Mrs. Higurashi said, letting go of her daughter and looking at the ground sadly. "It's just that I'm worried about you when you go over there."
"I know that mom. Please understand that I can take care of myself."
Mrs. Higurashi nodded and started walking out of the room. "Make sure you still come down for lunch."
As soon as Kagome was sure that her mother was out of earshot, she started crying again.
"Kagome?" Inuyasha asked as he walked over to her to try and comfort her. "Are you okay?"
"Oh, I'm just peachy!" she said sarcastically through her continuous sobs. "My own mother doesn't think I can take myself. Why wouldn't I be okay?" With that, a new fit of sobs came.
Inuyasha, knowing that anything he said would probably make things worse, pulled her into his lap and started rubbing her back in soothing circles. "Shhh. Please don't cry Kagome. I hate seeing you cry. It makes me feel like it was my fault."
"Why do you care about me all of a sudden?" Kagome said as she began to calm down slightly. "You usually just yell at me and don't care about how I feel."
"Kagome, I've always cared about you and I always will." Inuyasha said quietly. "I probably should've said this a long time ago; Kagome, I love you."
*********************************************************
Well? How was it? I don't think I did that bad. It took me a long time to finish because I had a crap load of work to do, but I got it done! The next chapter will probably be longer if I have enough ideas. I really want something else to happen but I'm not sure what. I just know that it has to be something the is exciting and grabs your attention.
Well, talk to you all later! Hope you keep reading even if the chapters take FOREVER to write. I WORK HARD SO DON'T BLAME ME!
