A/N: I'm back! Right now I'm listening to real Emotion (JADE version). Even though real and 1000 Words are great songs, my heart still belongs to the original FFX music. Oh, the name of this chapter came from a funny scene in Volpa's This Mess We're In. Kaede catches Kagome and Sesshou and he tells her something like

'And you. Begone.' it's soo~ cool!

*ring-ring*

*ring-ring*

*ring-ring*

Sesshoumaru's Nokia phone continued to ring obnoxiously as he made-out with Kagome on the subway. They were on their way to a park – a secluded park.

He sighed as he pulled away from her luscious lips.

"What."

"Sesshoumaru, dammit! Get your ass here, now."

Sesshoumaru put the phone to his other ear nervously.

"Father?"

"You heard me. And make sure you bring the Higurashi girl with you. I cant be-"

*click*

Sesshoumaru hung up the phone before his father could finish. He was spitting mad.

"Sesshou, what is it?"

He sighed at the sound of her sweet voice. No one as good as her should face the wrath of Inutaisho.

"My father wants to meet you. And he didn't sound happy about it, either."

All she did was nod her head and start to chew on her bottom lip. That was the only thing she did that irritated him. He was about to say something when the sub stopped.

"Come on."

She started to stand when suddenly she felt dizzy.

Sesshoumaru helped her up.

"You okay?"

"Yeah, probably dehydrated."

Inutaisho and Higurashi-sama were waiting on the steps for their children.

Kagome and Sesshoumaru dare not hold hands; it would only make matters worse.

She hung her head in shame as they neared the mansion. It would be at least the third time she kept something from her father. She could not fathom what he was thinking of her now.

"You're late."

Sesshoumaru raised defiant golden eyes to his father. "We rode on the sub."

His father crossed his arms and turned swiftly into the house. Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru quizzically but all she saw from him was a slight twitch in his jaw.

Woah.

Higurashi-sama seized Kagome by the shoulders sternly and pushed her gently inside of the house.

He must be really, REALLY mad.

Her stomach started to churn . . .

"Do you two understand the seriousness of your actions?"

The two adults paced around the parlor as they had a one-way argument with the teens.

"I don't see what's so bad about it. It's not like she's my sister or anything."

Kagome didn't see the short look between the two men, she was too busy trying not to throw up at the moment.

Although Sesshoumaru saw it, he had no time to contemplate; Kagome was clammy and her face was ashen.

"Gome, are you sure you're okay?"

She tried to smile but only ended up with a wobbly twitch. "It must have been that mystery meat from lunch." She tightened her hold on Sesshoumaru's hand.

Inutaisho watched the exchange between the two with a mild look of disgust and pity.

He looked at his brother-in-law and nodded his head.

"You are right, Sesshoumaru, she isn't your sister." Inutaisho braced himself. "She's your cousin."

Everything went still at that instant. Kagome's hand went limp within Sesshoumaru's.

"How is that possible?"

"I married your aunt and she died shortly after Sesshoumaru was born. If you need anymore proof, you can look at that picture on the mantel."

Kagome walked over to the mantel shakily while clutching her stomach. If she didn't get out soon, she would puke all over their beige carpet.

"It's true Kagome. Sesshoumaru is your cousin." She clutched her stomach harder; the floor was spinning.

This time Inutaisho cut in. "At least you two didn't do anything serious, right?"

Silence met his question. It wasn't until later that he realized that the girl in his son's room was Kagome.

The statement from her father was all the confirmation she needed. Instead of looking at the picture of her aunt holding a baby Sesshoumaru in the hospital, she ran for the bathroom, choking along the way.
