Chapter 3
A worm sunlight was shining in Kagomes eyes which said for her to wake up.
Opening her eyes Kagome remembered that she had to leave her mother a short description about Miroku, Sango, and Shippo. Even thought Ms. Higurashi all ratty seen them it was just for the insurants.
"Morning mom here's the list, oh and for Shippo get something Souta's size.morning Souta.hey gramps." Kagome greeted her family.as she was looking in the fridge for something to take back with her.
"Hey mom.?"
"I all ratty got you some things, their on the table." Ms. Higurashi informed her daughter.
"Oh, thanks mom." Giving her mother a kiss Kagome got her things and ran toured the door.
Mom is right I should just go along with everything like nothing happened." said Kagome as she stopped at the 'well' to get ratty to jump in.
*****
"Sango? Will Kagome come back to us today?" asked Shippo as he was yawning
"I don't know. Maybe. If she doesn't come today I'm sure she'll come the next day." answered Sango so the baby kitsune wouldn't get distressed.
"Ohhh." moaned Shippo, letting out a heavy breath.
Knowing that Sango wasn't exactly telling the truth Miroku looked at Sango as if she just committed a crime.
Not letting herself be put down Sango gave Miroku her own look.which gave Miroku a smirk.
*****
"Dam you Kagome!" Inuyasha yelled out to nowhere.
"Why'd did she even have to go to that vacation thing? Doesn't she want to stay here with me?" Inuyasha was debating in his mind. "Maybe there's someone ells! Maybe it's that Hojo guy!" as that thought crossed his mind Inuyashas eyes narrowed and he looked like he was about to go for the kill.
Jumping off his branch Inuyasha started to punch a howl in the trunk of the tree he was sitting on.
"DAMN YOU!!!"
*****
Taking of her coat Kagome put it in her bag since it was wormer in the Futile era then in the present.
Ef-hhh breathed in Kagome with a small smile on her face.
"I hope everyone is still at the lake." Kagome told herself at the same time as she was walking to the lake. "What if their not? How I'm I ganna fined them then? Oh, no what if they left." with that thought Kagome started to run so she would get to the lake sooner.
*****
"So what do we do now?" asked Sango
"I dunno. We should keep on looking for the Jewels but first Inuyasha is not here and second Kagome hadn't come back yet so with them being missing it'll be awfully hard." answered Miroku wail he was thinking what he'll tell Sango about where Inuyasha was. Hopping it'd slip her mind; he continued "Lets stay here and wait for a bit."
"Yeah lets wait for Kagome" interrupted Shippo hopping that anytime now Kagome would come through the woods.
"Ok, then we'll stay here." Sango agreed.
*****
"Do you think we should tell Shippo the truth about Kagome? We can't stay here forever." Said Miroku with a side glens at Shippo.
"We should but let's wait a bit maybe she'll come back. I don't want him to be upset."
"We have to tell him soon or latter. We can't keep it from him forever."
Looking at Shippo Sango answered "Yes, but we can try. Can't we? Just look at how happy he is, you want to take that away from him?"
Miroku didn't say anything back just saintly shook his hade.
*****
"Kagome!!!"
"See I knew we should have told him, now his imagining her!"
"Don't be a fool Miroku! She's right there." pointed Sango at the direction Kagome was coming from.
Waiving to her friends Kagome felt something bump against her lags, looking down Kagome expected to see Shippo but he wasn't their because loosing no time Shippo all ratty climbed up her shoulder.
"Why'd you leave us? Don't you like us?"
"Oh, Shippo of course I like you." Answered Kagome with shock of that Shippo thought that.
"Then why did you leave?"
"I just needed to think for a wail, but I didn't leave because I don't like you why would you think that?"
"Well you left so I thought maybe."
"Ohhh, Shippo I'm sorry you thought that." said Kagome with disappointment in herself for making the baby kitsune think that she didn't like him. "I like you, don't ever think that I don't."
"Ok.but don't leave us again. Ok?"
"Ok.I won't."
Still with Shippo on her shoulder Kagome walked to talk to the rest of her friends that were waiting for her by the lake.
"Hey Sango, hey Miroku!"
"Your back.we were getting worried you weren't going to show up!" said Miroku with the relief that they didn't have to lie to Shippo anymore and that Kagome is back.
"Do you still want to come to Japan with me for my Christmas vacation?"
"Yeah.but aren't you still mad at Inuya." Sango wasn't sure if she should mention his name.
"You mean Inuyasha? Yeah I'm still mad but I'm not going to let him ruin my time off." said Kagome bitterly. "I'll bring your clothes tomorrow so get ratty, Ok?"
"Yeah.ok" answered Sango and Miroku together.
"Where is Inuyasha anyway?"
Wondering herself where Inuyasha was Sango answered "I don't know."
"Miroku."
"Huh?"
"Where's Inuyasha?"
"How should I know?'
"You were the last one with him." remainder Sango.
"Yeah so?"
Kagome gave him a warning look.
"Ok, fine his across the lake." answered Miroku thinking why he didn't want to tell them aboutit, in the first place.
"Why?" Kagome asked confused.
"Now that I don't know."
"Did you say anything to him?"
"No. Well I asked him about why he was treating you so badly but other from that, no."
Kagome blushed a little from the knowledge that her friends cared about her.
"Oh."
*****
Still punching the tree Inuyasha thought about if Kagome came back yet...
"Is she there? Is she." his thought was interrupted by a familiar fragrance.
"That sent, I know that sent anywhere, it's Kagome she's back."
Taking a moment to stop punching the tree Inuyasha sniffed the air once again. "Yes, it's Kagome.she's here that slut!" remembering his earlier thought about Kagome and Hojo.
With a leap in the air Inuyasha was back on the same side of the lake as his friends.
*****
Like always Shippo was the first one to see him coming, since he was a fox demon. Thought he was still very young Shippo still had a good nose.
"Inuyashas back."
"Where?"
All of the gang asked out of disclosure.
"Right there.don't you see him?"
"Oh, yeah now I see him." Miroku said as looking around and spotting Inuyasha by one of the God trees.
"Where?" still clueless Sango and Kagome asked once again.
Miroku was about to explain but he didn't need to anymore.
"I'm right here!" answered Inuyasha standing so close to Kagome that their noses almost touched.
Normally this closeness would cause blushing chicks and rushing pulses if only this was under other circumstances.
"Will you back away a bit."
"I'll back away when I feel like it." answered Inuyasha with an evil grin on his face.
"I said back away!!!" nothing happening Kagome yelled "Sit."
With no regard of what was happening Inuyasha fell flat on his face.
"B."
"If you even think about calling me a bitch you'll never get up from this place."
"BITCH!!!" yelled out Inuyasha to see if Kagome would keep her word and the plusher of making her mad.
"Sitsitsitsitsitsit.I warned you!" said Kagome looking as Inuyasha fell deeper in the hole.
"What the hell is your problem?!!" shouted Inuyasha still flat on the ground "If anyone has the right to be mad it's me!"
"No it's not; you're not the one who's been called names."
"Yes but I am the one who just been cheated on!!!" without realizing Inuyasha shouted out.
Everyone went quiet.
"W-what?"
"You herd it."
"What if I didn't?"
"Then to bad for you."
"Did you just say that I cheated on you?" asked Kagome with disbelief.
At first Inuyasha wanted to hide what he said but then decided not to bother."Yes."
Trying to answer Kagome couldn't find anything to say, then finely something came out her mind.
"I couldn't possibly cheat on you. We never went out, and even if I was seeing someone what is it to you?"
"Who is it? Is it that Hojo guy?"
"I'm not telling you. What possible deferens would it make who it is?" cried Kagome as her voice began to brake down.
"Answer ME who is it?"
"It doesn't matter and it's none of your business ether! So stop asking!"
As the spell wore off Inuyasha stood up, grabbed Kagome by her shoulders and shook her hard enough to knock the wined out of her.
"It is my business!"
"No it's not." growled Kagome still in Inuyashas grasp.
"Yes it is: you belong to me! GODDAMIT!!!"
"Ahhh."
"Belong to him. What is he talking about?" Kagome was trying to figure out. "Could he care for me?"
Freeing herself from Inuyasha, Kagome backed away a few steps to give herself some room.
"Belong to you?"
"Yes your mine."
"So I'm something you can just own?"
"No that's not what I meant! I meant."
"What?"
"Nothing forgets it."
Knowing exactly what Inuyasha meant Kagome still teased him by saying "I want to know, what do you mean."
"Nothing."
How could he passably tell Kagome that he liked her, that he cared more about her then himself, if Inuyasha could barely get used to the idea himself.
"Feh. Just leave me alone!"
"Oh for gods sake just tell her you like her everyone knows you do!" interrupted Miroku trying his hardest not to grin.
"Shut up!!!" barked Inuyasha with his face begging to redden.
Shaking his head, Miroku made another remark witch got him a bump on the head.
"Why does everyone keeps doing that?" sniffed Miroku when rubbing his top.
"Well my guess would be that you're a smart mouth." Kagome added.
With a glare Miroku muttered."Uh-huh, you know dip down you want it." witch got him another bump on the head except this time it wasn't Inuyasha it was Kagome, also with a red face.
With no surprise to his remark Sango shook her head with hopelessness. "Oh, well at list this time he didn't mansion the name. I don't think Shippo should be hearing that stuff."
*****
"Come on we batter get a move on." Hopping that the whole thing with 'you belong to me' blown over Kagomes mind; Inuyasha began walking.
"Where are we going?" asked Kagome.
"To look for the Shikon Jewel. Where ells."
"No we're not. We're staying here and discussing our vacation. Just because you don't won't to go doesn't mean the rest of us have to stay here with you."
"Oh no, not again." squeaked Shippo under his nose.
"Errr." having very little potions and a big tamper Inuyasha lost control and yelled out "Don't you think I won't to go? I can't!!!"
"You do?"
"YES! I do."
"Then why have you been acting so mean to me if you want to go?"
"Because I can't go with you Kagome! I'm not a humane like you are."
"So what?"
"What do you mean so what? Are you telling me that people in your time are fine with demons? They don't start yelling 'Demon, demon save me!' they just go along with their day as nothing?"
"Not exactly.they never really seen one, and yeah they would probably start yelling."
"See! How I'm I supposed to go with you?"
"Uhhh.well" Kagome was trying her best to find an answer.
"You know I can't! So just leave it alone. I'm not going."
"Well.my mom saw you and she didn't scream. Maybe other people won't ether."
"Yeah right."
"Wait that's it! Mom! She'll think of something." thought Kagome happily.
"What if I find a way for you to come will you?"
"No."
"Why? You just said you want to go?"
"Because you won't find a away."
"Oh yeah, just watch me!" answered Kagome getting angry because of Inuyasha lake of hope in her
"FEH."
