*~*~*~*~*~*Chapter 15*~*~*~*~*~*

Koga Slowly closed in on Kagome. He was now crawling towards her on the bed.

"Uh, Koga?" she said nervously. No reply. "Koga!" she said a little more urgently. Still no answer, he just kept coming closer and closer. "Koga stop it now!" she yelled. This time he did answer.

"Stop what Kagome?" he asked drunkly. "I'm not doing anything wrong." He grabbed her arm and jerked her foreword, after he pined her down under him, he smirked. He drew his lips to her ear and whispered.

"I know about all your little friends coming over this weekend." The scared girl's eyes widened.

"I-I c-can explain." She stuttered. He shook his head no.

"I don't want to hear it. And I still have to punish you." He said as he leaned down to kiss her. His lips were about to touch hers when she screamed.

"No!" she pushed him a little but he didn't move.

He blinked and leaned back a little, but he was basically unfazed. He leaned back down towards her and breathed down her neck. Still in that position, he took the hem of her shorts with his thumbs and started to pull them down.

"NO!!!! Get off of me!!!" she pushed him off the bed, startling him. Then, as fast as she could she ran downstairs and out the front door. When she was almost down the driveway she looked back at the house to see Koga running at her, he was at the front door. Her pace quickened and she ran as far as she could. When her legs couldn't take it anymore she slowed and began to walk.

The young girl turned around to make sure he wasn't following her anymore. 'He probably passed out right in front of his car. And I ran all this way for nothing.' She thought.

She was starting to get more and more tired, and was freezing. She was wearing short pajama shorts and a short-sleeved shirt. Anyone who saw her would have sworn that she was blue, and on top of all that, she wasn't wearing any shoes. This was just dandy.

It wasn't even until now that she realized her surroundings. She was almost at the end of the long stretch of dirt road that separated her house from the main town. 'Where am I going to go when I get there?' she thought worriedly/franticly, 'I don't want to be all alone! I guess........that I could call Inuyasha when I get there. Would he accept a collect call? Well, I better just hope that he will.' She looked up from the ground and kept walking.

******20 minutes later******

Kagome was dragging her feet through the dirt, she felt like she was going to pass out any minute.

"Almost there." She said to herself. That's when she saw the lights. All of the stores were closed, but the payphone was still in reach. She stumbled to it and dialed the Inu's number collect.

"Please state you name at the tone." The machine told her.

"Kagome." She said sleepily.

"The person you are trying to reach has accepted your call" 'yes!!!' She thought triumphantly.

"Hello?" came a deep voice from the phone.

"Hello? Inuyasha? Is that you?"

"No, this is Sesshourmau, his brother."

"Oh, umm, well, is he there?" she asked hopefully.

"I'm sorry Kagome, but he is at Miroku's house." she sighed. 'Great! What am I going to do now!!!??'

"Oh..."

"Is there something I can do?"

"No, I don't think so. Its not like you would drive all the way out here to get me." She mumbled the last part so she didn't think that he heard her.

"Do you need a ride or something?" he asked concerned.

"Uh, no, I'll be fine..."

"Why are you calling from a payphone in the middle of the night then?"

"Umm, I-I, um." She couldn't seem to find words.

"Look, I'll be there to pick you up in no time, don't go anywhere."

"......."

"Ok?"

"Um, ok..." she said confused. And with that he hung up the phone.

She sunk to the cold pavement and brought her knees to her chest. She wrapped her arms around her legs and waited, trying her best not to fall asleep. 'What am I thinking? I don't even know this guy! *Mental sigh* I don't exactly have any other choices but to wait for him do I?' her thoughts were interrupted when a car pulled up beside her.

For a while it didn't register in her head who it was, and when it did register she grew even more nervous. He parked the car and got out.

"Kagome? You ready? Come on, let's go he said as he reached out and grabbed her arm to help her up. When he felt her arm he shivered.

"Wow, your freezing!" he said as he put an arm around her to help warm her up. Kagome was feeling really uncomfortable right about now. 'This is Inuyasha's brother, he is here to help me.' She repeated over and over in her head. But she couldn't help feeling uneasy around him. He was just so....tall, and mature-like. He seemed like he had everything under control. If he told her to jump off a bridge right now, she probably would.

He opened the passenger door for her and gently shut it when she was inside. He jogged to the driver's seat and got in, the second the car was on he turned on the heater. Kagome remembered that was exactly what Inuyasha did when he picked her up from that lake.

"So where to?" Sess. Asked when he realized he wasn't sure where he was driving. Kagome wasn't sure what to say.

"Um hoe bout Miroku's house?" she asked hoping he knew where it was.

"Why would you want to go there? Can't you just go back to your own house?"

"Umm" once again she was at a loss for words. "I-um, can we just go to Miroku's house? Please?"

"Sorry, but I don't recall where it is."

"Oh. Then where am I gonna go?"

"I guess you can come back to my house." she looked at him warily.

"I think I want out of the car.," she stated quickly. Sess. sighed.

"Look, when we get there I'll call Miroku's house and get Inuyasha to come home. You won't have to be alone with me. Ok?"

"Ok..." They sat in silence for a while.

"Umm, are you sure you don't know where Miroku's house is?" she asked hopefully. He shook his head.

"Are you seriously that afraid of me? What did I do? Did Inuyasha make up some crazy story about me or something?" Kagome shook her head no. "than what is it?" his tone never got threatening, it stayed calm and normal.

"........."

"Well? What is it?"

"It just takes me a while to get used to people ok?" she said as if she didn't want to tell him that. She was already having a hard time staying awake, now she had this guy she hardly knew questioning her.

"You sure that is it?" she nodded. "Alright then." He knew there was something else, but decided not to push the matter.

"Well, here we are." He got out of the car, as did she, and led her to his front door. When they got inside he ushered her towards the couch and watched as she nervously sat down.

"I'll be right back, I'm going to call Inuyasha." He said as he walked into his room and shut the door.

It took every bit of strength she had in her body to keep her awake. The couch was just so comfy!

***With Sess***

"Inuyasha, you need to get home right now." Sess said calmly.

"Why? What are you talking about?" Inuyasha was acting as if Sess was crazy.

"Your little girlfriend is over, I think there is something wrong with her. She's scared of me too, so you better get here soon or she's gonna break down or something."

"Be there in a flash." Literally 2 minutes later Inuyasha burst through the door.

"Where is she?!?" Inuyasha demanded more than asked. He saw Sess. come out of his room. "Well where is she?" he asked his older brother urgently.

"She is in my room." He said calmly. Inuyasha gave him a questioning look before brushing past him to Kagome.

"Kagome? You ok? What happened?" he asked as he sat down next to her. She look exhausted.

"I guess I'm ok." She said sleepily. "But I'm really tired. I just want to go to bed."

"Ok then, come on, you can sleep in here." He brought her to his room. "What happened? What are you doing here?" he asked again when the door was shut.

"I'm really tired Inuyasha." She said as she walked to the bed. She looked at it for a second warily, then sighed. "I'll sleep on this recliner thingy." She turned around and pointed to his recliner one-person couch.

"Don't be silly, I'll sleep on it, you can have the bed." He lightly ushered her to the bed, and gave her a slight push so she was sitting down. She was sitting straight, and looked extremely nervous.

"What's wrong Kag? You've slept here before." He spoke curiously.

"I-I just don't want the bed, lets talk in the morning." She got up to run to the couch but he grabbed her arm.

"Why don't we talk now?" she shook her head no, he sighed. "Fine, we'll talk in the morning. I'll get you a blanket." She nodded her thanks and sat down on the couch, the second she was lying down she was asleep.

Inuyasha came back into the room to find her asleep on the couch.

"What am I gonna do with you Kag?" he asked himself as he put the blanket over her. After he was sure she wasn't cold, he too lay down on his own bed.

Even though he is a hanyou, he didn't hear or see his brother watching him from the door.

"I wonder what is wrong with that girl." Sess said to himself as he walked back to his room. "What is it about her that makes Inuyasha act this way? He is so caring and careful when he is around her." with that final thought he got into his own bed, and pondered Kagome's problem. In a matter of minutes, he too was fast asleep.

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*Next Morning*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

Kagome wake up to the smell of burnt eggs. 'Breakfast should be good.' She thought sarcastically.

She got up and walked to Inuyasha's bed to wake him up, but he was nowhere to be found. 'Maybe it's him making breakfast and his brother is still asleep.' She thought as she walked out of his room to the kitchen. But it wasn't Inuyasha cooking.

"S-seshoumaru?" she asked, he turned around.

"Yes?"

"Um, do you know where Inuyasha is?"

"Yes, as a matter of fact I do. He wanted to go back to Miroku's house to get a few things he forgot. He thought that you would still be asleep by the time he got back." He stated.

**************FLASHBACK**************

"Sesshoumaru! I don't want to get my things from Miroku's house right now! Kagome will definitely wake up before I get back!" Inuyasha said in a whiny voice.

He went anyway five minutes later.

***End Flashback***

"Oh, ok then." She sat down at the other side of the counter where they had 3 stools. "I can wait for him to get back."

"Well, I wanted to talk to you anyway."

"What about?" she asked nervously.

"Why were you in the middle of nowhere last night? I could tell you had been running for a while." His voice was calm.

"Well, I-um....my car broke down." She said the last part quickly.

"Is that so?" she nodded. "Then where was your car?"

"Oh, it was down the road a bit, I walked to the payphone."

"Why were you out in the middle of the night?" he knew that she was lying, and he planned on getting the truth out of her.

"I need to get something." She asked more than said. He sighed.

"Why don't you try telling the truth?" he looked straight into her eyes, making her even more uncomfortable.

She sighed and looked away.

"My step brother. He uh, came home drunk last night." she fidgeted with the hem of her shirt.

"Is that it?" he asked slowly.

"N-no."

"Than what is the rest?" he still spoke slowly.

"Um, well he came into my room, and told me that I was gonna have to sleep in his room. And then he dragged me in there and threw me onto his bed. He pinned me under him, and he was going to.........but I pushed him off of me. Then I ran as far as I could, and when I was sure he wasn't following me I started to walk. When I got to town I called here, and you know everything from there." She looked around nervously and waited for him to say something.

"I'm sorry that that happened." She gave him a fake smile. Then he spoke again. "Does he do this often?" he asked seriously.

Kagome thought for a while. This was the first time that he ever went that far.

"No." he nodded.

"And what does you mother or father do? Do they know?"

"Well, my mom is dead." She said sadly, "and my dad." She said through clenched teeth. "Well, my step dad doesn't exactly know. I have a feeling if he did he wouldn't care anyways." She said the last sentence a little quieter.

Sess sighed.

"Well, you are welcome here anytime." He was still serious as ever. She smiled.

"Thank you, but I do need to be home by 2 pm today. My stepfather will be home at 2:30. So that gives me a half hour to get ready."

"Get ready for what?"

"Oh, um, just clean up a little." She was a little nervous, but not enough for him to notice.

"Alright then, I'm sure that we can arrange that. I have to pick up Rin around then anyways."

"Rin?"

"My daughter, I adopted her just a couple of years ago." She nodded.

"That's nice." She said awkwardly. 'Maybe someday I can be adopted.' She thought hopefully.
