Chapter 5: Compromising
Princess Sango
Kagome woke up and felt refreshed, it felt like she had died and went to heaven. No new cuts and other things didn't show up. She smiled and saw Sango was already out of the room. She heard someone walk in and found Souta coming in with a tray. "Y-you're awake." I nodded as he laid the tray in front of me.
I opened it and found French toast, eggs, syrup, and hot chocolate in front of me. I gasped at the meal, "I-it's a feast..."
Souta smiled, "I remember as a little kid you'd like it. Inuyasha's mom made it special for you."
I smiled at him, "Arigatou, but you know I can't stay."
He shook his head, "I don't want you to leave Kagome-chan. I don't want you to leave."
I sighed, "Okay, I'll stay but I'll have to go get my things." S
outa shook his head, "No, mom will buy you new stuff."
I shook my head, "I need some things Souta-kun."
Souta nodded, "Take Inuyasha with you, mom and dad wouldn't hurt you if he was there."
I sighed sadly to him, "Look you don't know what I've been through Souta-kun. I'm going to eat and get some of my stuff, by myself you got that?" Souta shook his head mumbling to himself and left the room.
I sighed and sank into the delicious meal. 'I can't come back here. I must get back to the home. I'll live with it for a few more years; I'll suffer and then cover it.' I heard the door open and in came Inuyasha. I haven't seen him since I was nine and I had a major crush on him.
Inuyasha looked at me and shook his head, "Why are you being so damn stubborn? You're brother is sitting there trying to get you to listen to him! He wasn't in the same position you were in but Kagome, he wants you here!"
I looked up at him with fire in my eyes, "You want to see what I've gone through?"He nodded to me a little shocked by my sudden fire. I took my hands and licked the palms as I started washing off the make up on my face. When it was gone his shocked look was very shocked. "I'm not letting you leave."
"You can't stop me!"
Inuyasha nodded, "Yes I can, my family holds power in society, and they can get your parents into jail for that."
I shook my head violently tears pouring down my face, "It's not that simple. You don't know them, you never grew up the way I did. Inuyasha, you were my friend when I was nine in Osaka when I was there?"
Inuyasha nodded, "You were her? My crush?"
I looked shocked, "You liked me?"
Inuyasha nodded, "What was not to like about you?" I smiled at him as Inuyasha sat down and took the fork from my hand, "I'll make you a deal."
He fed me a bite, "Listen up; if you want to get your stuff, I'm not stopping you. I just don't want you to leave this house with out me, Miroku, Sesshoumaru, my parents, or Souta. They can't hurt you if you're under the protection of the Inu Youkai. You know your brother became a hanyou like me, but he only looks human."
I looked up at him shocked, "H-he did?"
Inuyasha nodded, "So did Rin, besides my mom, we're all some part youkai."
I smiled, "I don't need to be a youkai. I'm strong enough as it is. I've dealt with this much already. I'll take your deal."
Inuyasha nodded and kissed her cheek, "That's all I needed from you. I'll be back in a moment." I smiled as he left and continued to eat up my meal.
