The Stepbrother-chappy 2
~*at dinner~*

"Mama."

"Yes, Kagome?"

"Is..Inuyoukai's son.in jail? Or has he ever been?"

"Umm.I don't think so, Kagome. But you can ask him at the wedding if you want!" she added excitedly.still excited by the fact that she was getting married.

"You know.I never married your father, Kagome. He just left.and left you with me.which I am very thankful for!" she says to me and smiles. "And I am very glad that you'll get to have a real father! And that older brother you've been hoping for! That's why I knew Inuyoukai would be just perfect when he told me that!"

I smiled.and still sincerely hoped that Inuyasha wasn't who I heard he was.even as much as I wanted an older brother.I didn't want one who had killed anyone.or robbed anything.or is just generally a bad person!

The next month went pretty fast.maybe faster than I had liked it to anyway. Mom was super excited and had her dress picked out and everything. I tried to be excited but that fear still lingered in my heart. Though it kind of struck me funny that I was scared of someone I hadn't even met yet!

So I bottled up my fears and hoped tomorrow would be a success.if just for my mom's sake.

~*the wedding!~*

I stood a few feet from Inuyoukai who was standing there grinning like a hyena..and rightly so.it was his wedding after all. Inuyasha was standing next to his father. He didn't look too bad.at least by what I thought. He had black spiked hair and bright purple eyes. His eye brow was pierced twice and he had a lip ring.so pretty handsome.I thought. (a/n: Kagome is her mother's bridesmaid and Inuyasha is his father's best man! I think it's a cute idea!)

They started to play this lovely music just as my mom started to walk down the aisle. She looked beautiful. She had her hair up in a nice bun and her dress was white and poofy. It was definitely her dream wedding.heck it was anyone's dream wedding!

At the reception I was really bored. My mom and my new step dad were having a great time.talking with relatives.dancing. It all looked fun.except I was alone. Sure there was the occasional relative that would come by and pinch my cheeks or something but nothing remotely interesting. Then I thought about Inuyasha.where was he anyway? I spun in a circle.scanning the small room before I finally found him. He was standing in a corner, by himself.

Ok, Kagome.be brave.be brave I said to myself.

"umm.Hi.your Inuyasha.right?" I said nervously.

"yea. Who are you?" he said. Oh gosh, he doesn't even know who I am.this ought to be great.

"I'm Kagome.I'm your new stepsister"

We chatted for a little while..and he seemed like a pretty nice guy. I forgot all about the things my friend's said about him. We became fast friends much to my surprise and delight. Maybe I was going to get that big brother I always wanted!

A couple of days after the wedding he enrolled in my school. We had a couple of classes together.it was pretty nice. My friends started not to hang out with me.since I hung out with him. But I still hadn't asked him about all the rumors.

"Aren't those your friends, Kagome?" Inuyasha would ask.

"They.are." I said

"Some friends you've got then. I haven't seen you with them since I got here!". I smiled. Even though I knew he was right.I was glad that he was concerned.

"Well.at least I have you!" I said as we both smiled. "You won't ditch me too, will you big brother?"

"Of corse not.little sis."

Inuyasha was turning out to be everything I hoped for. We did everything together.we hung out.we got lunch.he was the big brother of my dreams. Till one day about 5 months from the wedding.

We were on my bed watching TV when I grab the TV and shut it off.

"what's wrong Kagome?"

"Inuyasha.a while back I heard some rumors about you.some pretty nasty ones at that."

"oh yea.the rumors. I've heard them too. Lets see..according to them I've killed someone, killed my mother, robbed a store, robbed a bank." he said while counting them off with his fingers.

"yea.that's what I heard too." I said. "they...arnt true.are they?" I said with a hint of worry in my voice.
