The Camping Trip

Last Time:

Kagome pulled up to a red light and turned to InuYasha "Hey InuYasha I hate to admit it, but I'm nervous, I have no idea how she's going to react." Kagome was really nervous.

InuYasha leaned forward and kissed her deeply, then pulled apart and said, "Kagome, stop worrying it's going to be ok." Then the light turned green and Kagome and InuYasha rode the rest of the way in silence.

Kagome parked and InuYasha and herself walked up the steps to Kagome's house hand-in-hand. InuYasha squeezed Kagome's hand, and then pressed the door bell.

Chapter 12: Telling Mom

"Coming!" Yelled a woman from inside the house/shrine.

The door creaked open and Kagome's mom appeared in the door way. "Oh, Welcome home Kagome, and who is this?" She said gesturing to InuYasha. "O well, tell me later come in come in and sit down on the couch!" Kagome's mom was very happy to have her daughter home.

"Mom, this is InuYasha." Kagome introduced him.

"Well hello InuYasha,.Kagome, where is your grandfather and Sota?" She asked the last question directed at Kagome.

"Um, they'll be here in a little, we came here to tell you something." Kagome trailed off, looking nervously at InuYasha. He took her hand in his and squeezed it, giving her some reassurance. "Mom, I, I mean to say, we have come here to tell you, that, that, We're I'm ..love." Kagome said looking from InuYasha to her mother and back to InuYasha.

"O honey! I'm so happy for you!" Said Mrs. Higurashi giving her daughter a big hug and then giving InuYasha a big hug too.

"Mom, um, we're also going to be mates, because you see," she pulled off her bandanna as did InuYasha his ball cap. In one sec Ms. Higurashi was all over InuYasha rubbing and tweaking his ears, seeing if they were real. "InuYasha is a honyou, and I am too, now that is.."

"O my, I'm so happy for you!" She squealed still inspecting InuYasha and moving onto Kagome's ears.

"Mom, could you please stop..there VERY sensi-" Kagome could not finish for she started to purr loudly as her mother rubbed the base of her ears.

"O, I'm sorry honey," Said Ms. Higurashi as she stopped the rubbing, stood up, recomposed herself, and sat in the big easy chair, as Kagome and InuYasha sat in the love seat.

"We're going to leave for a day or so, it's something important." Said InuYasha, the first thing he said since coming into the house/shrine.

"Ok, well have a good time!" Kagome and InuYasha left after that, and as soon as the door shut, Kagome and InuYasha heard(very good hearing!) Mrs. Higurashi squeal something about being a grandma very soon. This made the couple laugh very hard as they got to Kagome's car, Kagome was just about to unlock it when Inuyasha spoke up.

"Kagome the place where we're going you can't reach by car, you can ride my back?" He said turning his back to Kagome, she climbed on and InuYasha jumped all the way there, "Kagome, you can sleep if you want we wont be there until about sundown." He informed her seeing her head bob slightly as if she was very tired. She nodded and fell fast asleep on his back.
