Disclaimer:I don't own InuYasha, and honestly, I can hardly speak japanese.
A/N: Well here's the second chapter. Like it, enjoy it, and review!
A yell was heard and Kagome jumped "InuYasha!" She yelled, running after him and letting out a scream herself once she stepped past the trees.
InuYasha tumbled down the hill, landing with a dull thud at the end. "Damn." He muttered. He felt something collide with him and knock him over again. He was dazed for a bit and realized he was on top of Kagome. Blushing furiously he scrambled off her.
Kagome stood up, blushing about as much as him. She smiled slightly, seeing him blush. She looked around "I don't see a demon anywhere." She said, looking around and trying to change the subject. "Are you sure you smelled one?" She asked, looking at InuYasha.
InuYasha nodded, looking around as well, he heard something rustle in a nearby bush and walked over towards the bush which was by the river. He saw something white jump out at him so fast it knocked him over. "What the hell?" He said.
"AWW! She's so cute!" Kagome squealed, walking over to the figure on top of Kagome and picking the child up.
InuYasha growled and sat up "What the hell was that for!" He yelled, looking at the kid.
The girl smiled, she had black hair and ears of a dog-hanyou. When she smiled she reviled two pointed fangs, although she had no claws. "My name is Kitaro." She said to Kagome. She pointed at InuYasha who was still angry "He's my daddy!" She said.
InuYasha's face fell "What the hell are you talking about!" He said.
Kagome sighed "InuYasha, sit" She said, tired of him yelling at the girl. She heard a thud and a bunch of muttering as InuYasha was forced into the ground, head first.
The girl ran over to him and knelt down next to him "Daddy are you ok?" She asked.
InuYasha scowled, he sat upright once the spell worn off. "Listen kid, I'm NOT your daddy." He said to the girl, a bit more harshly then he had intended. The girl started to cry.
"You forgot about me?" Kitaro said, starting to cry now.
InuYasha looked like he did when Kagome was about to cry "Don't cry." He said, looking at her and standing up.
Kagome felt hurt, so he had a child and he never told her? And he doesn't even remember. She walked over to the child and picked her up "Are you ok? InuYasha is just a big meanie sometimes." She said
Kitaro smiled and whipped away the tears off her face "It's ok." She said, smiling as brightly as though she had never been yelled at, at all.
InuYasha was still muttering about Kagome sitting him. He looked at the girl "Kid I'm not your dad." He said in a firm voice, but not harsh.
Kagome sent him a glare but didn't say anything. "C'mon Kitaro, you're covered in scratches, I'll take you back to camp." She said, heading up the hill again. I can't believe the nerve of InuYasha. I thought…oh it's silly, he'd never love me, and he loves Kikyou. I can't believe he'd forget that he had a child though. How irresponsible. She thought.
Kitaro was still in Kagome's arms as they started towards camp. She sat down by the fire and looked at Miroku, Sango, Shippo, And Kirara curiously.
Miroku was awake, he stood up and walked over to Kagome "Kagome we were just about to go and look for you, you startled us when you weren't at the camp." He said.
Sango was awake as well, she was leaning up against a tree and standing "Although we knew InuYasha was with you, and decided to just stay here and wait for you." She said, thinking that they might've just wanted to be somewhere alone for the time being. She looked at Kitaro "Who's she?" She asked.
Kitaro smiled at Sango and Miroku "I'm Kitaro. And I found my daddy." She said, still smiling as she looked at them and then at Kagome.
Miroku blinked "Her daddy?" He and Sango asked in union, looking at Kagome.
Kagome put on a small smile that was forced "She says that InuYasha is her dad." She said.
InuYasha walked into the clearing, obviously annoyed and pissed off. "Kagome what was that all about!" He said, starting a fight with her already.
Kagome glared at him "You know very well what it was about! How could you not know that you had a child! Do you know how irresponsible you are!" She yelled back.
Kitaro looked at them as they continued to fight. Miroku sat down next to the small girl "So how is InuYasha your dad?" He asked quietly. If InuYasha and Kagome wouldn't ask then he would.
"I remember my parents; I lived in a village not far from here. Not many people liked us at the village. I was walking home one day and our hut was burned down. My mommy and daddy are alive, and I've been looking for them ever since." Kitaro said with a small sigh.
"She's not my kid!" InuYasha said, still arguing with Kagome.
"Well why does she look like you then!" Kagome yelled back.
"How the hell should I know!"
"You're the only half dog demon I've ever seen! Let alone I've only seen two half demons in my time here!"
"Yeah? So! It doesn't mean she's my kid!"
"She looks like you! You probably just forgot!"
"How could I forget about something like that! Don't you think I'd know if I had a kid?"
"How should I know?" Kagome yelled back, tears in her eyes now; she turned away from the hanyou. That jerk! I can tell he's lying; he's been alive for what? 200 years! Of course he'd probably have a kid… but why am I so upset about it?
InuYasha could smell Kagome's tears and felt bad. He wanted to tell her he was sorry for yelling already. But he wasn't going to admit defeat.
Miroku sighed "Would both of you stop it already?" He said, looking at them.
Kagome looked at Miroku, after whipping her tears off "Sorry Miroku." She said with an apologetic grin. She walked back over to her bag and pulled out some medical supplies before walking back over to Kitaro and putting some bandages on her cuts.
Kitaro smiled once Kagome was done. She yawned and remembered that she was very tired. Sitting over by a tree she fell over and fell asleep.
Miroku sighed, he looked at InuYasha "InuYasha, you know we can't take that girl with us." He said.
InuYasha rolled his eyes "No shit, Sherlock." He muttered, folding his arms.
Kagome shot him a glare "Let's just get some sleep and deal with this in the morning, alright?" She asked, looking around at them.
Sango nodded "You're right, it's too late and we'll all be tired tomorrow." She said, walking back over and sitting down, asleep again. Miroku was already asleep by the fire.
Kagome walked over and sat back down where she had been before. She stared into the fire, unable to sleep. She realized that she was still wearing InuYasha's hiori and suddenly hated it. She hated him, why did she have to love him? He obviously loved Kikyou more then her. Before she knew it she was crying again. She pulled her legs up to herself and started crying.
InuYasha could smell her tears; he walked over and sat down next to Kagome, knowing that she was crying. "Kagome?" He asked softly, so as to not wake the others.
Kagome didn't look at him; she didn't want to look into those eyes anymore. "I-I'm going to go for a walk." She said quietly, standing up and walking off into the forest, dropping InuYasha's hiori behind her.
InuYasha picked up the hiori and looked at Kagome as she left. "Kagome…" He said his voice small and strangely soft. He put the hiori back on and ran after Kagome. He could tell she wasn't in view any more, although he'd follow her scent. He continued walking through the forest, soon walking into a clearing by where the river was. He saw Kagome, sitting on a rock by the river, looking down at her reflection. He walked over and put a hand on her shoulder.
Kagome jumped slightly, feeling the sudden movement. She turned and saw InuYasha standing beside her. Her face was tear-stained and she quickly tried to dry her tears. "You should go get some sleep, InuYasha." She said softly, still not looking at him.
InuYasha sat down next to her "Kagome, don't cry." He said, looking at her. He hated to see her cry, it hurt him. He wanted to comfort her. He pulled her to him and put his arms around her in a tight embrace.
"InuYasha?" Kagome asked her cheeks red now that he had hugged her. Part of her wanted to slap him and break away. But something else made her stay there and hug him back.
"Kagome, you have to believe me, she's not my kid." InuYasha said firmly.
Kagome started crying again, her face buried into his hiori now. "I'm sorry." She said.
"You baka (fool), what are you sorry about?" InuYasha said, looking at her.
"For not giving you a chance to explain, I'm sorry." She said.
InuYasha held Kagome tighter "She's not my kid, Kagome. I-"He stopped.
Kagome blinked, she looked at the hanyou whose cheeks seemed to be a bit pink. "You what?" She asked, although guessed what.
"Kagome I may have been around for a long time, but I've never had a kid." InuYasha said, still slightly red and avoiding her gaze.
Kagome felt herself smile "Somehow, I'm not surprised, yet I am." She said, as though it had made sense.
InuYasha hugged Kagome he couldn't help himself anymore. He hated being part human; it made human emotions pass over him. He felt himself draw towards Kagome until their lips met.
Kagome blinked in shock. Had InuYasha kissed her? She felt her cheeks turn red, although she kissed him back, loving his embrace.
"Kagome?" InuYasha asked softly, breaking away from their kiss after a few seconds.
"Yes?" Kagome asked, still shocked that he had kissed her.
"I-I love you." InuYasha said, looking at her and blushing once more.
A/N: Yeah I know, another cliffy. But you'll all have to deal with it. And don't be expecting a lemon from this fan fiction. I might get close to a lemon, although nothing like that. And please reveiw, I want opinions! Be harsh, I wanna hear what I can do!
