A.N. Okay! This chapter is the product of too much caffeine and a late afternoon nap. I'm sorry if nothing makes sense, just PM me and I'll make modifications accordingly.
Last Time
"Okay," she started. "A couple of years ago, when I was seeing kouga, we had a little celebration when he got a new car that he paid for on his own. But beyond that, things got a little out of hand, and we did some things. I'm not saying I regret anything, but anyway, a while after I found out I was pregnant…"
"YOU WERE WHAT?"
Now
"INUYASHA LOOK OUT!" Kagome screamed when InuYasha swerved into the opposite lane, barely missing a oncoming car.
As they came to a slow stop, both InuYasha and Kagome were breathing very hard.
"Kagome," he said, looking at her through his bangs, "did you have the baby?"
Kagome looked at him, almost in a bewildered state, but when she realized what he was saying, she smiled and took his hand. Surprisingly he didn't pull away, like she had expected him to do.
"No," she said looking him in the eye.
"You didn't have a…?" he tried to say, but the word wouldn't come out.
"OH GOD NO!" she shrieked, "I would never do that! It's murder. But anyway, I had a doctors appointment to see if it was true. And it was, I told kouga they had more tests. I was still trying to figure out what to tell my mom, but I didn't have to. A week later I fell down the stairs, one of the only reasons why I hate the cat, and I lost the baby. I had a ultrasound to be sure, and there wasn't a heartbeat. But I told mom anyway, and told Kouga it was a false alarm. He still thinks it was that to this day, and he can't know. He'd hold it against himself, that's why he don't want you to be like him. But anyway, that's my big secret, well that and my clinical depression that I was diagnosed with after loosing the baby."
InuYasha was stunned, he had absolutely no clue what to tell Kagome. Sure, he had feelings for her, but it wasn't love, or at least he didn't think it was that. They used to be best friends, but they formed new lives when he moved.
"Kagome…" he started, but she cut him off.
"It's okay if you don't want to see me anymore," she said, "I'm fine with it. Quite a few people here in town know about it, how could they not. I gained a lot of weight in a short amount of time, and I was eating weird. Hell Hojo knew, that's why I was excited that he asked me out. I thought he didn't care about what happened, or the fact that I'm normally hyped up on happy pills. I guess he wasn't okay with it though."
"Kagome," he said again, this time louder, "I don't care that you had a accident. All that matters is that your, for the most part I guess, your okay now. It's a loss that you didn't have the baby, but that only happened because at the time you weren't meant to have children. I won't leave you, not because of your past. I only care about the present."
Kagome smiled, and leaned forward and kissed InuYasha softly, "thank you."
They didn't say anything else the entire time InuYasha took Kagome home. He figured it was best for her to think a while, but when he got to the house, he was surprised to see her mother running out of the shrine, her arms flailing about like a mad woman.
"Kagome!" she exclaimed, "I got a call from your doctor. They're lowering your dosage on… oh hi InuYasha."
"It's okay mama," Kagome said, "he knows. About everything."
Dai's eyes opened as wide as a owl's, "well um… okay. As I was saying, your dosage has been lowered. I guess all your sessions have been paying off."
"I don't think it was that," Kagome said taking InuYasha's hand in hers, "I think it was something else."
Kagome's mother looked at the two funny for a bit and then smiled, "do you hear that? InuYasha, Kagome, if you'll excuse me. I think I hear Izayoi calling me."
After Dai disappeared, InuYasha and Kagome started laughing.
"I doubt she was calling," InuYasha said with a grin, "I didn't hear a thing."
Kagome smiled and leaned into InuYasha, who was leaning against the car, wrapping her arms around his waist, she pressed her face into the front of his shirt and whispered so softly even he couldn't hear her, "thank you InuYasha."
A.N. Yeah it was a VERY short chapter. But like I said earlier. It was the product of no sleep tonight, and a lot of sleep during the day. Hehehe, I'm also very hyper. It took a total of 20 minutes to write. A big deal for me!!!! Hehehe! EXCITED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Anyway. I hope you liked the chapter, InuYasha finally knows the truth! Hehehe, REVIEW PLEASE!! Te quero mucho!
