Chapter 4

Of Coarse Not

A/n: READ ALL: okay all you people out there.. to answer A LOT of reviews… this story will have a happy ending unlike 'Hex'…so be happy… and I will have them get together sooner then in that story also.. and just to tell you… I am my own person and do what I want in MY stories… not what YOU want… I am very strict about that… I don't care if you want evil pink bunnies to take over the planet of my fic… it won't happen unless I already had planned it… so back off… and another thing… if you want something to happen then write your own fic… because this is MINE… and if you don't like that then go read some other story… all flames will do to me is make my stomach happy from all the hotdogs and marshmallows… unless you really piss me off…

Monday. Oh to Joy. But really. I wanted to see if InuYasha would give me another back massage. His fingers were like magic.

I ran through the door and waved my hands toward a startled InuYasha, "I know I know, I'm late. Sorry, I had math thing to take care of," I said and slammed down into a chair.

InuYasha pulled off his headphones, "No problem," he said. How could he have heard me through that? Probably wasn't on or something.

I smiled. I think he got the idea because just as my lips became upward, he had stood up and walked behind me. His palms and fingers dug into my skin, but felt sooo good once more.

"So," he started, "Tell me about your brothers?" he asked.

I froze. When did I mention my brothers? Oh yeah, at the first session. "Both little brats," I said without knowing. How did he do that? I'd never say that unless to myself. I needed answers from him. Or make him stop giving me a massage so I could think straight. Wait, no way, I don't care anymore, this feels too good.

InuYasha shuffled a laugh, "Really?" he asked.

"Yeah, do you want them cause you can have them," I said. Kagome! That's not they way to talk about your brothers! I scolded myself.

"Nah… got one to look after, to make sure he doesn't ruin my life," he said.

"Your life is ruined," I said without thinking. Oh no, now he's gonna stop. To my surprise he didn't.

"Your probably right," he said, "But I'm smarter then you think," he dug into my back harder.

"How so?' I asked.

"I got A's on my last math and science test, of coarse both teachers decided to give me C's on my final grade. Something about my attitude, makes no sense to me. We're here in school to learn, not become proper men," he said. Made sense. If InuYasha earned an A he should have gotten one.

"Makes sense," I said aloud. His touch on me lightened.

"Really?" he asked.

"Yeah," I muttered. To much pleasure! How did he calm me like that?

"So tell me about your family, I mean, everyone else," he said.
My eyes shot open. Once again my back felt terrible, I shot up and turned around, "Listen InuYasha, it's nice to talk to you and all, but we're not here for me, but here for you." I said.

"Woo woo," he said and waved his hands in front of his face, "Fine fine," he said and I sat back down. Once again he started on my back.

"Okay.." he started, "Then what's the one thing you most regret in your life?" he asked.

"I never learned how to swim," I said. Swim? Where did that come from? Sango! I've been thinking about her lately. One summer I was supposed to go to swim camp with her. But I had to stay home and take care of mom and my brothers.

"Really?" he asked. If he said really one more time I was about to rip out his tongue and pull out his voice cords.

"Really," I said instead.

"Wow. That's great, do you want to come over I can show you?" he asked.

I snorted, "In what, your outside pool?" I asked.

"No, actually it's inside, in the kitchen. So do you wanna or not?" he sneered.

I blinked, "Let me think about it," I said. The bell rang and we both jumped. Again I wished the session hadn't ended. Odd really. I would've always dreaded the meetings if he hadn't gave me that back massage.

"Hey," he said and ran down the hall to me. He handed me a piece of paper with numbers on it in black magic marker.

"What's this?" I asked.

"My number, if you decide you want to call me," he said and waved off.

I blinked. This first guys number I get and it's from InuYasha. Go figure.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

When I walked through the door I saw mom. She was sitting on the couch with Shippo in her lap and Sota beside her.

"Mom?" I asked. He hair was actually combed and she took a shower. She was wearing something other then a T-shirt and had a smile plastered on her face.

"Kagome, I'm sorry about what I said a couple nights ago," she said. Was she better. Maybe she wasn't sick anymore.

A/n: *cough*inthehead*cough*

"It's… okay," I said in surprise.

"No, it's not. I need to be a better mother, why don't we go on a picnic?" she asked. I coughed liked something was stuck in my lungs. Go, somewhere, other then the house.

"That would be nice, we could have it in the backyard," I said.

"Don't be silly, we'll go to the park like we always do," she said. She looked serious.

"Okay…" I said slowly. Sota looked at me. I knew what he was thinking.

"Go get the cooler and I'll get the sandwiches," she said and dashed off into the kitchen.

When we were done and I had Sota and Shippo strapped into the back seat I had slid in on my side and waited. And waited. And waited. My gaze turned to mom. Her hand was still on the key. She hadn't even started the car.

Her knuckles were white and she let go, "I'm sorry," she sobbed, "I just can't do this," she said and opened the door before sliding out and walking back in the house hugging herself.

Sota kicked the back of my seat, "I knew it," he muttered.

I knew it to. What was I thinking. Mom hated large crowds, and she hated being near anyone.

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

The next couple days were calm down days. On Thursday I decided to ask my mom about InuYasha.

"Mom," I asked as I opened the door to her room.

"Mmm" she whimpered.

"Mom, I want to go to my friends house, is that alright with you," I asked.

She whimpered and a sob escaped her lips. I wanted to run under the covers and hug her. Like I used to do when I had a bad nightmare. But all I did was exit the room.

Get off it Kagome! I screamed to myself. Your not a little kid anymore, besides, the nightmares don't scare you anymore, not as much as waking up…

A/n: yeah yeah… still having short chapters I know… bite me… neways… if I get a lot of reviews then I'll post 5 pages next time… do we have a deal?
