Kagome walked home deep in thought. "Hojo. did I- did I just really say that to Hojo? I did. He's so popular and cute. I turned him down. For what? For Inuyasha," Kagome answered her own question.

Kagome just realized what she said and shook her head. Thinking of Inuyasha made her long for him. She didn't want to think completely of Inuyasha, so instead she thought of the shikon jewel. "We don't even have half of the jewel shards yet. Naraku probably has just about the same amount." Kagome thought out loud as her hand wandered to the jewel hung around her neck.

As Kagome neared her house, she saw a figure standing by her front door. The person was wearing big, red, baggy clothes, they had white hair, dog ears, and a sword hanging by their side. It was Inuyasha. Kagome was glad to see him, but she didn't show it. Instead, she went up to him and yelled at him, "Inuyasha! What do you think you're doing here!?"

Inuyasha didn't reply. He just stood there and looked at Kagome. This made her furious. What was Inuyasha doing in her time? Kagome didn't like being ignored. She raised her hand to slap Inuyasha, but he caught it in mid-swing. Kagome and Inuyasha just stood there staring at each other. Inuyasha, who was still holding Kagome's wrist, matched his hand to hers. Kagome froze, her gaze following Inuyasha's hand. "Inu. yasha." Kagome began, but stopped abruptly. Someone was standing in the doorway behind Inuyasha. It was Sota.

"What are you two doing?" Sota asked, apparently disgusted by Inuyasha's actions.

Inuyasha dropped his hand from Kagme's and turned around to face Sota. "Nothing. Now go inside. Me and Kagome have to go shard hunting," Inuyasha growled.

"Uh, okay." Sota said. "Kagome, I'll go get your backpack for you."

Kagome nodded and Sota ran inside. Inuyasha turned back to Kagome. "It usually doesn't take you this long to get home from school." He said in a worried type of tone.

"I'm sorry. I. had to talk to a teacher and get all my homework I missed." Kagome decided to lie and not tell Inuyasha about Hojo.

Sota got back with all of Kagome's stuff. He dragged it all over to her and whispered, "What was Inuyasha and you doing before I came? Is he turning into a perver? Ouch!"

"Sit boy!" Kagome yelled.

"Ugh!"

A big thump was heard and Kagome's mother and grandpa came running out. Inuyasha's ears had picked up what Sota had said. He obviously didn't like what he heard. So he beat Sota over the head. "What happened!?" Kagome's mom questioned.

"She sat me!" Inuyasha yelled into the floor.

"He beat Sota on the head. repeatedly!" Kagome yelled.

"Yeah? Well he called me a pervert!" Inuyasha growled as he jumped off the ground and onto his feet.

"Now I'm going to have to fix that big hole in the ground that you made." Grandpa said to Inuyasha.

"That I made!? She's the one that sat me!" Inuyasha scowled pointing at Kagome. "Feh! What a wench!" Inuyasha whispered under his breath.

Inuyasha and Kagome made their way to the well. What did he think he was doing? Kagome thought to herself, recalling the awkward moment her and Inuaysha had before they were interrupted by Sota.

They finally made it to the well. "Whew! This backpack's killing me!" Kagome commented.

"Feh!" Inuyasha growled. "Yeah, well if you didn't carry all that weird stuff with you, it wouldn't be that heavy!"

"Humph!"

"Kagome, you go first," Inuyasha said, motioning to the well.

Kagome walked slowly over to the well. She was almost there when the weight of her backpack made her knees buckle. Kagome fell forward and heard Inuyasha scream, "Kagome!"
