A/n: This is based on a true story... this happened to me just two days ago on the twenty first, just it was my dad who was… leaving for the time being… and some other changes.. Obviously ... I can e-mail the real story if you want, just tell me in your review

Kagome's Journal-

February 21...

This had to be the worst day of my life; I mean… if you read this you will understand. I was on the verge of crying myself to insanity after seeing what I did, things normal kids shouldn't have to go through… read at your own risk, some things may not be suitable for the tender hearted.. This is the story of how I found love… how he seemed to care for me in my time of need..

I sang along with the music, not having any idea what would come up in a few moments. The music calmed me, I was happy. The warm water soothed me, I was as happy as could me, until I heard a knock.

"Kagome," My mother screamed, "Open the door!"

I responded quickly, "Why?"

"Just open the door!"

And I did, wrapping myself in a towel and turning down my music I opened the door, sounds of coughing rang in my ears. "What?" I asked annoyed that my calm state of mind was interrupted.

A worried look flashed in her eyes, and she spoke bluntly, "I'm taking Jii-chan to the hospital he's-"

I cut her off, "What!" I said my eyes already brimming with tears. I didn't like this, last time he was in the hospital he almost died, I couldn't help but feel so worried and upset.

"He's coughing up blood again and a lot of it..." She said looking at me, "So you stay, we don't have time to spare." She said referring to the fact I was only towel clad.

I nodded, and ran down the stairs. Jii-chan looked so much in pain, I felt it too, I hugged him, "Jii-chan… you'll be okay and I'll see you soon.. I love you..." I said my voice shaky.

He hugged back and I ran upstairs, hearing him hack up more and more blood by the minute, I couldn't handle it. I shook my head, ran back to the bathroom and turned the music up. I shook my head my face tear streaked, "No... He can't, not again…" I hated the sounds, the look in his eyes, I couldn't stand it.

I poked my head out and listened, the cars engine revved for a moment, before taking off. I knew it was safe.

I walked down stairs; looking to the wastebasket next to his chair filled me with horror. There sat, what seemed like, a whole box of tissues, completely covered in blood… all of them. I knew it was bad. I couldn't help but think the absolute worst.

My mind flooded, I couldn't figure out what to do. The first thing came to mind. Inuyasha. Sure I had thought of him a really good friend; sure I had a small crush on him. But at the time I didn't know I was going too... fall head over heels for the guy.

I don't know what came over me... but I ran. I didn't even know I was still only in a towel and my hair dripping wet. I entered the well house, ignoring the meow that came from Buyo, and jumping into the well. I landed funny, my ankle cracked and I winced. I disregarded the pain, and the worst thoughts still flooded my mind.

I looked up, and climbed just having my thoughts centered on Inuyasha and them also drifting to Jii-chan. As I got to the top I collapsed, "Inuyasha!" I cried, falling to the ground, clutching the towel to my body. I wasn't un-consciences, just unable to move my body; I called again, my voice shaky, "Inu… INUYAHSA!"

"Kagome!" I heard as he approached, his gaze lingered over my towel clad body for a moment before he picked me up, "Kagome... what happened?"

Tears fell from my eyes and down my cheek, "Jii.. Grandpa is at the hospital… there… there was blood everywhere.." After I finished I shoved my face in his Fire Rat Fur red haori and sobbed.

He held me close and ran towards the village, his body was so warm, and his grip was tight but comforting.

I smelled herbs and remedies as we entered Kaede's hut, and I heard Sango, Shippo, and Miroku gasp, and Kirara nuzzled my arm and licked my swollen, purple, obviously broken ankle.

"Kagome! What happened?" Sango cried as she saw my weakened state.

"I agree Lady Kagome, what has happened?" Miroku said, I felt his eyes on my bare, exposed skin.

"I… grand-" I attempted to start, but was cut off my Kaede.

"Hush dear… ye will explain later... first we must heal you.." She said bringing over a cup of steaming medicine.

I nodded and looked over to find Inuyasha, but he seemed to disappear.

Kaede beckoned me to drink the drink, I picked it up and it smelt awful. Shippo seemed to think so too; his nose was crinkled, his demon senses having full effect on the poor kitsune. I took a breath and drank the bitter medicine, almost gagging at the taste, but I felt my throbbing ankle's pain subside slightly. I noticed a few cuts on my arms and legs, they must've been from climbed and falling. I sighed and looked around, Sango had a feared look on her face and I gave her a reassuring smile, she smiled and I slipped into a dreamless slumber for the rest of the night and half of the next day...

A/n: It may not sound that bad, but from experience and seeing your father or grandpa in her case throw up blood can really cause you to go into shock, I couldn't remember any phone numbers not even mine… gods I still cry today, and things like that.. Causes the victim to go into intensive care, and I was in that room for seven freaking hours yesterday... I had to get out of school cause I kept getting so upset… it really scares us.. Anyways... review and don't be to mean…
