A/N: Hello again! It seems that this story is becoming more popular than I thought it would. That's cool! Well, I know a lot of you have been wondering about what Kagome's going to do about Steven now that Inuyasha's back. Well, I'm not gonna say! Ha, ha, ha, ha! You'll all just have to wait and see! But just for fun, who do you all think she should be with? Should she stay with her fiancé Steven, or should she drop him and be with Inuyasha?
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or anybody else from the series or anything. I don't even have something to drink...hold on...almost done...now! I have water! Ha, ha, ha! I own some water now!
-Chapter 3-
Souta's Hero and Ramen
Kagome sat at the dinning table and fiddled with her nails. Right upstairs was the hanyou that she fell in love with years ago, and somewhere else was her fiancé Steven. She loved Steven, but now that Inuyasha was here, what would happen?
Her mother was bustling around in the kitchen cleaning dishes, sweeping the floors, and other chores occasionally humming a random song. "Kagome, are you ok? You've been very quiet."
"I'm fine Mom."
"Are you sure you don't want to talk about it?"
"There's nothing to talk about, I'm just tired."
"Then why don't you go take a nap?"
"..." Kagome hadn't heard any movement in her room, so Inuyasha was probably still sitting on her bed. She didn't want to go up and face him again.
Then Kagome heard somebody pound on the door.
"Kagome dear could you get that?" her mom asked her.
"Sure mom," Kagome got up from the chair and walked over to the door.
She opened up the door and was greeted by a big smile from Souta. "Hey sis! Long time no see!"
"Hi Souta!" Kagome said happily.
She hadn't seen Souta in years. When Souta was finally old enough to move out of the house, he went to live with some of his high school friends miles and miles away from where Kagome and her mom lived. He had changed since she last saw him. He was taller, he had gotten taller than Kagome by a few inches.
"So I heard you're getting married," Souta said.
"Yeah, do you need help with your bags?" Kagome asked pointing to the luggage by his feet.
"Nah, I got it," Souta picked up his bags and Kagome moved inside so he could pass. "Hi Mom!" He said when he walked into the kitchen.
"Souta!" She scuttled over to him and gave him a hug. "How nice to see you! Will you be staying?" She looked at the luggage he was carrying and figured out the answer to her question. "Oh, just go put those upstairs in one of the guest rooms."
Souta nodded and walked towards the stairs. Kagome shut the door and resumed her spot at the dining table.
Souta walked down the hallway and looked for an available room. He passed one room and stopped in his tracks. He backed up and starred into the room at a silver haired hanyou sitting on the bed.
"That couldn't be who I think it is, could it?" Souta asked himself. He put his luggage on the ground and walked into the room. "Is that you Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha looked at Souta, "Yeah."
"Wow, it's been a while since I've seen you!" Souta said excitedly. Inuyasha looked a little confused. "It's Souta, Kagome's younger brother."
"Oh, Souta," Inuyasha said suddenly remembering who he was. "You've grown a lot since I saw you last."
"Yeah, that usually happens over the years. But you look pretty much the same as you did years ago."
"That's because I'm not human."
"Yeah, I know that. What are you doing here?"
"...I just dropped by for a visit."
"Oh, will you be staying here or will you be going back to your era?"
"I don't know."
"Oh, well you should consider staying. It'd be cool to have you staying over."
Inuyasha just starred at the ceiling.
"Well, I'd better get my bags into my room," Souta said walking out the door.
Inuyasha just stayed seated on the bed until he smelled something in the kitchen. "Ramen!"
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome had gotten a little hungry, so she decided to cook up some instant ramen. She had just finished cooking it, and was about to put it into a bowl when she heard the sound of footsteps coming towards the kitchen at a fast speed. She turned away from the stove to see Inuyasha running over to where she was.
"Yeah! Ramen!" Inuyasha said happily looking into the pot on the stove.
He reached his hand over to the stove to try and get some, but Kagome immediately slapped his hand with a spoon. "Not for you," she said.
Inuyasha pulled his hand away from the stove and made a pouting face, "But I'm hungry!"
"Too bad!" Kagome said crossing her arms.
Inuyasha then looked out a nearby window. "Who's that guy out there?" He asked pointing.
Kagome walked over to the window and looked out it, but couldn't see anybody. She turned around quickly when she heard a yell coming from the stove. Inuyasha was holding his now wet hand and starring at the pot of ramen.
"Inuyasha, that ramen's hot you baka!" Kagome yelled walking over to the stove.
"I'm hungry," Inuyasha said still starring at the ramen.
"Fine, you can have some," Kagome said taking out another bowl.
"Yeah!" Inuyasha took the bowl of ramen from Kagome and immediately started to slurp it all down.
Kagome sighed and took her own bowl over to the dining table to eat. Almost as soon as she started to eat, Inuyasha tapped her on the shoulder. "What?"
"Are you gonna eat all of that?" He asked.
"Yes I'm gonna eat all this!" Kagome said moving her bowl away from him. "Now let me eat!"
Inuyasha sensed that she was getting annoyed, so he decided that it would be best for him to let her be. He walked over to a window that faced the front of the house and looked out it. "Hey, who's that guy?" Inuyasha asked.
"I'm not falling for that again," Kagome said.
"No really, I'm not lying! He's got light brown hair, and he's wearing a ring-"
"Steven?!" Kagome immediately ran to the window where Inuyasha was standing. She looked out the window and saw one of her neighbors talking with her mom outside. "Oh, it's not him." Kagome turned and saw that Inuyasha wasn't beside her. She looked over at the table and saw Inuyasha about to devour her food. "Sit boy!"
Inuyasha crashed through the table onto the floor and the ramen toppled over with him. Inuyasha lifted himself up off the floor, "What was that for?"
"Don't try to eat my food! You're not the only one who's hungry! And now I have to clean this mess up!"
"It's not my fault I crashed through the table!"
"Just go upstairs!" Kagome yelled.
Inuyasha got up from the ground and walked out of the kitchen covered in Ramen. Kagome grabbed a broom and started to sweep up the broken pieces of the table and bowl. Tomorrow, Steven was coming over, and she had to do something about Inuyasha.
