"Who are you?" he asked.
"Inuyasha?" she whispered.
"Inuyasha is that my name?"
She nodded and he turned away from her. There was a look of pure confusion on his face. "You don't remember do you?"
"Remember what? Hey how did I get here?"
"You were in a car accident but you'll be alright."
"Oh."
The conversation went silent from there. They just gave each other awkward glances from time to time until Inuyasha broke the silence. "So you never told me who you were?"
"My name is Kikyou."
"Kikyou." He paused for a moment. "Sorry it doesn't sound familiar."
"Of course it wouldn't you don't remember much of anything do you?"
"No."
The doctor came in a few moments later. "Oh Mr. Tanaka I'm glad to see that you're up."
"Yeah I guess."
The doctor exchanged looks with Kikyou. He didn't like the way that Inuyasha was acting. He was behaving so carefree as if nothing had happened.
"Mr. Tanaka tell me do you remember anything at all? The accident perhaps."
"No but she's here maybe you should ask her." Inuyasha spoke as he pointed to Kikyou.
"I see well this is bad apparently you have amnesia."
"So you're telling me that I lost my memory." He asked as he focused his attention on to the doctor.
"Yes that is exactly what I' am saying."
"Hey miss?" Inuyasha started but it was too late Kikyou was gone. "Hey where did she go?"
Kikyou started walking in the hallway when she had bumped into Sesshomaru. "Kikyou where are you going? I thought that you were with Inuyasha."
"Its terrible Sesshomaru he has amnesia. He doesn't remember me."
"Are you serious?"
She nodded softly and he took her by the shoulder. "Come on let's go back and see him." Inuyasha was lying in the bed staring mindlessly into the ceiling. He stopped staring at the ceiling when he heard footsteps. He looked to see both Kikyou and Sesshomaru.
"Hey its you; you came back." Inuyasha said.
"Yes." She nodded.
Inuyasha turned his attention to the man standing besides her. "Who are you?"
"My name is Sesshomaru."
"Sesshomaru? Do I know you?"
"Yes I'm your half brother."
"Cool I guess."
Soon Keade came to the door. Inuyasha could tell that she was the youngest. She looked to be about 18 or so. "Who's the brat?" Inuyasha wondered.
Keade walked over to him. "Hello I-n-u-y-a-s-h-a how- are- you doing? My name is K-e-a-d-e." She sounded everything out as she yelled into his ears.
He grabbed his ears and nearly fell out of bed. "I lost my memory I'm not deaf." He yelled back.
"Okay well now that's over. I'm Keade Kikyou's younger sister."
"Oh I can kind of see the resemblance." He then looked back towards Kikyou. "Hey miss?"
"Yes?"
"You're really beautiful are you my girlfriend or something?"
"No not exactly."
"Oh god please don't tell me that you're my sister."
"Oh god no. Then that would make me related to you too." Keade spoke up.
He gave her an angry look. "No offense Inuyasha."
"Yeah whatever you little brat." "So who are you to me for some reason I feel connected to you." Inuyasha told Kikyou. The young woman took this as a sign of hope. Even if he didn't remember everything at least he could still feel their connection.
"Look at your finger you fool." Sesshomaru spoke coldly.
Inuyasha looked down at the ring on his finger. Slowly his eyes then traveled to the ring on Kikyou's finger. "We're married."
"Yes Inuyasha I'm your wife."
"I'm sorry miss but I can't remember."
"I understand." The truth was her heart was breaking into pieces. "I should go." Kikyou started. "Besides you need your rest." Kikyou left the room in tears. Sesshomaru turned to look at his brother with a look on anger in his eyes.
"You idiot of course she already knows that you don't remember. She doesn't need you to remind her of that every five minutes."
His inu ears folded flat on his head. He really felt bad now. Inuyasha slowly stood up out of bed and made his way over to the door. "Inuyasha where are you going? You should be resting." Keade warned him.
"I have to go apologize to her." He walked out of the room door to see Kikyou leaving. He followed after her his body was still in a lot of pain but he continued on. The nurse saw him trying to leave she couldn't help but shout at him.
"Mr. Tanaka what are you doing out of bed? Go back to your room."
"No. Which way did my wife go?" he asked.
"Mrs. Tanaka went to her car. Now you go back to your room or I will have someone take you back."
"Lady you can call the freaking Queen of England for all I care. Either way I need to talk to Kikyou." With that being said he disappeared through the door. It was raining outside and the wind was blowing hard. He spotted Kikyou getting in to a silver Mercedes- Benz. Just as she was about to drive off he ran in front of the car. This stopped her from driving.
"Inuyasha what are you doing?" she asked him as she got out of the car.
"I had to stop you."
"You should be resting."
"To hell with all that rest. I needed to apologize to you."
"For what you did nothing wrong?"
"I should have never told you that I didn't remember being married to you. I know that must have hurt."
"Yes it did hurt but its something that I will have to get used to."
There was a moment of silence as the breeze flowed through the air. Inuyasha looked away for a moment then he turned his attention back to her. "Will you help me?" he asked.
"What?"
"Will you help me remember you know so that I can start living my life?"
She paused for a moment then closed the car door. "Of course you should never have to ask me. I will be here for you."
"Thanks Kikyou."
"Now you need to go back to your room." She was about to get back into her car when he suddenly grabbed her hand. "Will you stay with me the night? I don't know why but I would feel a lot better if you were here."
"Yes sure I will stay with you." Kikyou told him. She went to park the car and then headed back over to him. "Come on Inu lets get you back to your room." He reluctantly reached for her hand and closed his fingers in between hers. He couldn't explain but it felt like the right thing to do.
"Thanks again Kikyou."
"No problem Inuyasha. I love you." He didn't respond and she hadn't been expecting him to. She knew that it would be awhile before she heard those words again.
"This will be very difficult on both of us." She thought to herself.
