Chapter Twenty-Nine: Deal With Things Here/There

--

Kagome looked out the window, trying to get her mind on something else. That Sesshomaru incident was completely TOO funny. Inuyasha looked at her and asked,

"I won't hesitate to get a huge bucket f water if you start laughing again."

"I won't." smiled Kagome, looking over at him.

He snorted, "Right."

He turned into a dirt road, and Kagome tried to see the house. They turned a corner and a house sat there. Inuyasha came to a stop. Kagome got out, and walked up to the door. Inuyasha soon behind.

Kagome knocked and waited. After a while the door opened, and there stood Kouga. He looked at Inuyasha then Kagome,

"Thought you would never come."

"You wish I didn't come." murmured Kagome. "Where's Kizu?"

Kouga opened the door for both of them to come in. When they entered, he closed the door, and locked every single lock on the door. Kagome looked at Kouga,

"Don't you think you're going a bit overboard. Just a bit."

"Nope."

They went into the living room. Kizu was sitting in front of Caden glaring. Saika sat on the side laughing. Kizu turned to the three that entered the room, and jumped up,

"Mom!"

Kizu ran over and hugged Kagome. Kagome knelt down to his size and hugged him back. Another person entered the room, and it was none other than Ayame. Ayame gasped,

"Kagome. I didn't know you were coming over."

Kagome pulled away from Kizu, and looked up at Ayame. Her bright red hair was longer, finally down instead of in two pigtails. Her jade eyes looked darker than before. Kizu waved at Inuyasha, whom smirked, and went back over to Caden and Saika.

Kouga told them to go upstairs, and they did. Kagome dropped the bag that belong to Kizu against the wall, and asked sourly,

"So how's life? Fantastic for you I bet."

"Kagome," started Ayame, glaring at her, "I got the impression you'd be upset with me when you found out about me marrying Kouga. I understand that he…did something really horrible to you, but you never tried to forgive him. Or find out exactly WHY he did it."

Kagome glared back, "Why in the hell would I do that? You don't understand how I felt…it isn't that easy."

"You can always try."

Kouga broke in, "Can we drop this subject?"

"No," started Kagome, "since you're Mr. Good-Guy…tell me why'd you do it. Why? Huh?"

He leaned against the wall and sighed, "Growing up, I had to watch…literally watch my father hurt my mother. He taught me that women should do what you tell them too, and that bull shit. When I turned twelve, he killed my mother. I no longer tried to ignore my father. I hated him, yeah, but I was to weak to close my ears anymore."

This type of stuff happened all the time, thought Kagome. She looked at Ayame's pity-face, and sucked in a sharp breath,

"I won't forgive you so easily."

"You can forgive me or not Kagome. I don't really care. I said I was sorry, you heard my plea, and I'm done. I won't drop to my knees and begs. Unlike dog boy here."

Inuyasha growled, "Don't start with me."

"Did you get any notes stabbed to your door with a knife lasts night? Bricks being thrown at your house?" asked Kagome, wanting to change the subject badly.

Kouga nodded, "We got a few bricks thrown, but we have shatter-proof windows. So that sort of put them off. I got the letters on the bricks."

Kouga exchanged a look with Inuyasha. Ayame sighed,

"Kagome, can I speak with you alone."

Kagome stood, looked at Inuyasha, he nodded, and she followed Ayame. Kouga asked,

"Did you get a letter individually? The one threatening to kill Kizu and the others?"

"Yeah," nodded Inuyasha, "I didn't show Kagome. She'd start having a major fit, and would probably come here trying to take Kizu away."

Kouga nodded, "I didn't show it to Ayame either. She's pregnant, and I don't want to put any stress on her."

It was quiet and Inuyasha let out a irritated sigh. Before anyone could say anything, Kagome yelled,

"What! No!"

Inuyasha's dog ears flickered. Kouga snorted and listened to what he knew was already happened.

"No!" yelled Kagome, pale in the face.

Ayame sighed, "It's only until InuTaisho clear's all this up. It was his idea."

"I don't want you sending Kizu to some far off place. With a stranger." protested Kagome.

Ayame rolled her eyes, "I'll be there. As well as my brother, whom was in the military last year. He's been IN the military for years."

"No, no, no, no, no…"

She groaned loudly, "Kouga has custody of Kizu during summer, remember? So it really doesn't matter what you what you think."

"Kouga!" yelled Kagome, stomping into the living room. "Are you seriously going to go threw with this!?"

He nodded, "Would you rather them stay here unprotected. Sesshomaru's brats are going too."

"When was this decided!?" yelled Kagome.

Inuyasha sighed, "When you went to sleep last night. We were all talking about this."

"You're in on it too!" gaped Kagome, glancing at the three faces.

Ayame sighed, "Kagome…they have to be somewhere safe."

Kagome looked at Kouga, Ayame, and then Inuyasha. She shook her head,

"They'll just follow."

"What part of 'military' didn't you understand?" asked Ayame, crossing her arms.

Kagome turned to leave out the house to only see Kizu. She jumped,

"EEP!"

Ayame laughed, Kouga shook his head, and Inuyasha just smirked. Kizu asked,

"Are you leaving?"

"Kouga," started Kagome threw clenched teeth, "when are they leaving?"

He answered, "Tonight."

"Are you?" asked Kizu again.

Kagome knelt down to him, "You already know that you're going Kizu?"

He nodded and hugged Kagome. Kagome sighed and hugged him back. She huffed,

"I'm going to miss you a lot."

"I'll miss you more." sniffed Kizu.

She pulled away and rustled his hair. Kizu laughed when she poked him in his side. Kagome smiled,

"Promise to behave?"

"I promise." smiled Kizu, he hugged her again, "I love you."

Kagome smiled, "I love you too."

She pulled away, kissed him on the forehead, then stood. Kizu smiled brightly then went back up the stairs. She huffed,

"Watch him Ayame…he likes to wonder."

"I know, I know." smiled Ayame.

Kagome turned around and glared at Inuyasha, "Let's go."

She turned and stalked out the house. Ayame shook her head, and hugged Kouga's arm. Inuyasha grunted,

"Later."

"Whatever." mumbled Kouga.

Ayame sighed, "I wish you'd come too Kouga."

"I have stuff to do here, you'll be fine." he turned toward her and pulled her into his arms.

Inuyasha left the house, ready for hell to be given from Kagome.

In The Car

"Why didn't you tell me?" asked Kagome, in a sober voice.

"Please don't start Kagome, you were going to find out regardless." grumbled Inuyasha.

She whispered, "I know you're hiding something."

"I'm not hiding anything."

She glared out the window, "My neko side says you are, and I can tell rather or not you're lying."

"Who do you believe Kagome!" shouted Inuyasha. "Me or your neko side."

She didn't answer. Inuyasha took a deep breath, and calmed himself down. He loosened his hold the wheel, and glanced over at her. Kagome had her eyes closed and was leaning her head against the window. Inuyasha apologized,

"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have yelled."

"Leave me alone." hissed Kagome.

He sighed, "If I hide anything from you Kagome, it's because I'm trying to protect you."

"I don't need protecting." replied Kagome. "I'm apart of this too."

He clenched onto the wheel. Kagome looked over at him, and sighed. Inuyasha asked,

"What are you making everything difficult?"

"I'm not."

"Yes you are."

"If I need protecting, by you, why won't you let me protect you?" asked Kagome, looking over at him.

He snorted, "I'm not a wimpy cat like you. I don't need protecting by one either."

Kagome hit his arm and he smirk. She grumbled unintelligently. Inuyasha's smirked widened,

"Would you just stop worrying. Everything's going to be fine."

"Whatever you say," smiled Kagome, "pup."

Inuyasha frowned, "Who you calling a pup, kitty?"

"Hey!"

Kagome stuck her tongue at him. Inuyasha rolled his eyes and she giggled. She leaned over the seat and pecked him on his cheek.

Later That Day

"Sesshomaru!" gasped Rin, in the middle of crying. "You can't make them go all the way to America! Why didn't you discuss this with me!"

Sesshomaru didn't seem phased, "I can't have them in my way."

"Their not in your way!" sobbed Rin, wiping at her tears. "They didn't even threaten them! They want us!"

Kagome hugged Rin, but she pushed away. Rin glared at Sesshomaru with cold eyes,

"If something happens to them Sesshomaru, I'm blaming you!"

She ran up the stairs, and they jumped when the door slammed. Well only Kagome actually jumped. Sesshomaru leaned against the wall and stared at Kagome. She looked back at him,

"What?"

"You don't seem bothered that Kizu is being taken to America." replied Sesshomaru.

She glared, "That's what you think!"

She stomped up the stairs, went into her and Inuyasha's room, and slammed the door. Sesshomaru let out a long sigh. Inuyasha smirked,

"Remember, your idea. I don't know about you, but I'm telling Kagome whose idea this was. She'll forgive me, hate you, and we'll all be happy."

Sesshomaru's eyes flashed, and Inuyasha laughed. He went upstairs and into the room. Kagome was moping on the bed. Inuyasha plopped on the bed, head in her lap. She glared down at him with her lip pocked out.

He smirked,

"This wasn't my fault. This was all Sesshomaru's idea."

"You could've fought you know." murmured Kagome.

He pecked her on the lips, "You wouldn't want me to kill Sesshomaru would you?"

She rolled her eyes and relaxed when he pecked her on the lips again. He did it two more times before capturing her lips with eagerness. Kagome kissed him back and leaned closer to his face. She put her hands on his chest, and sighed into the kiss.

Kagome pulled away to shift her position to on top of him. He rolled over and was soon on top of her. He captured her lips into a heated kiss. Kagome wrapped her arms around his neck. It was once again-like last night-becoming intense.

Kagome tugged at his shirt and he pulled away. She looked up at him and looked at him confused. Inuyasha whispered,

"Kagome…"

"I want too Inuyasha." smiled Kagome.

……………….when you get her pregnant……………….

……………..have the future in my hands………………

He pulled himself off, "Not yet."

"Why not?" asked Kagome sitting up, looking rejected.

He gave her a kiss to her forehead, "Not until Naraku's taken care of."

"Inuyasha," whispered Kagome, "what does Naraku have to do with…"

She paused, realization dawning on her. She smiled,

"You're worried I'll get…pregnant."

"If you do, and you get hurt…I'll never forgive myself." whispered Inuyasha.

Kagome smiled, "I won't get hurt Inuyasha, you can always make me go with…Ayame."

"I wouldn't want to be away from you." he replied.

Kagome sighed then nodded, "I understand."

"I love you Kagome." smirked Inuyasha, running his hand threw her hair.

Kagome smiled, "I love you too."

Kagome kissed him, pulled away, and hugged him. He tightened his whole on her waist, never wanting to let go.
