Chapter 4: Chicken Soup and Soap Operas

After leaving the room with her book bag, Inuyasha goes downstairs to make her some chicken soup.

Souta happens to be in the kitchen when Inuyasha arrives.

"How's my sister doing?" Souta asks.

"Oh she's good and stuffy. She asked me to make her some chicken soup." Inuyasha says.

"Oh I can show you how to do that." Souta says getting up from the table and to the cabinet where their other keeps the soup.

"Now what you do is this." Souta says as he fills a pot with water and then putting it on the stove.

"You let that boil and now come watch what I do here." Souta says as Inuyasha follows him to the counter. He opens a can of broth and then opens the can of Chicken soup.

"Why do you open 2 of them?" Inuyasha asks.

"Well because Kagome likes Extra broth in her chicken soup. She says something along the lines of sleeping on it I don't know." Souta says.

He puts the 2 in the bowl together and waits for the water to boil. After the water boils, Souta takes the water off the stove and pours it in the bowl with the soup and broth. He adds a little bit of Hot dog slices to the soup.

"Now take that to Kagome. She likes it that way." Souta says. "Uh Inuyasha one more thing before you leave."

"Yeah." Inuyasha says.

"Are you and my sister dating yet? I mean I have to know." Souta asks.

"Well Kinda. I mean she is the easiest person to get long with." Inuyasha says.

"So when will you tell her?" Souta asks.

"I already told her. She's just wants to take it slow for now." Inuyasha says walking upstairs.

"I always wanted an older brother." Souta says going back to his homework.

Inuyasha goes upstairs with the soup to Kagome's room only to find her sitting up and reaching for the remote.

"Kagome I'm back." Inuyasha says giving her the soup.

"Oh thank you Inuyasha." Kagome says taking the soup.

"Souta made it and showed me how to do it." Inuyasha says.

"Thank him for me later." Kagome says. "Now hand me the remote."

"Kagome what did I tell you?" Inuyasha says. "I'm here to help you so you don't have to."

"Inuyasha I'm sick, not crippled." Kagome says.

"Kagome when I first met you, yeah things were a bit bumpy then, but you know I have grown to grow on you and accept you for who you are." Inuyasha says. "I have devoted my life to helping you and would risk it to save yours."

"Aww Inuyasha you are so sweet." Kagome says. "Now be a dear and get me some more tissue."

Inuyasha walks into the bathroom and gets some more tissue. He walks back and gives her the sheet ring of tissue.

"Thanks." Kagome says. Kagome begins eating the soup.

"Mmm this is Delicious." Kagome says through her sneezing.

"I can't wait until you get better." Inuyasha says.

"Me neither. Just why did I have to be infected by Linda?" Kagome says.

"I'm sure she wasn't trying to do it on purpose." Inuyasha says.

"I'm sure she wasn't. She's my best friends, well one of my best friends." Kagome says.

Just then the doorbell rings.

"I'll answer it." Inuyasha says. He gets up and goes downstairs to the door and when he reaches it, he opens it. There is a boy with brownish black hair in a school uniform.

"May I help you?" Inuyasha asks.

"Yeah is Kagome home?" The guy asks.

"Yeah she is, who may I asks wants her?" Inuyasha asks getting firm with his words.

"Hey no need to get rowdy buddy, I'm a classmate of Kagome's and Noticed she wasn't at school today. Is she sick?" The boy asks. "Oh by the way, My name is David."

"Well David, She has the flu. Do you have something for her?" Inuyasha asks.

"Yeah this is for her. I went and bought a gift to wish her well." David says handing it to Inuyasha. "Are you her brother?"

"Yes I am her brother." Inuyasha says.

"Well Nice meeting you and please give her the message." David says walking away.

"Nice meeting you too and she will." Inuyasha says. He closes the door. Inuyasha walks upstairs with the gift and goes into Kagome's Room.

"Who was at the door?" Kagome asks blowing her nose.

"Oh some guy named David." Inuyasha says.

"Oh isn't he nice. What did he drop by for?" Kagome asks.

Inuyasha gives her the gift. Kagome takes it and opens it. It's a teddy bear that reads get well.

"Awe isn't this nice." Kagome says.

"Yeah sure it is." Inuyasha says disappointed that Kagome may love someone else. Kagome hears the disappointment in his voice.

"Inuyasha I noticed the sound in your voice and don't worry, there is only one for me." Kagome says turning to Inuyasha.

He smiles at Kagome.

"David is just a friend to me, nothing more. I wouldn't want anyone else because I already have the one and Original." Kagome says as she coughs.

Inuyasha sits back in relief in the chair.

"Inuyasha can you go downstairs and get me more Medicine? Kagome asks.

"Sure why not." Inuyasha says as he leaves the room. On his way to the Kitchen he is relieved to know that Kagome will always love him, well so he thinks.

Well that's it for now. More to come later on.
