Last Time:

"Kagome let's get going don't want to be late now do you?" He chuckled. He slurred a bit too...I think I saw some saliva spitting out..."Get in the car my Kagome." I obeyed quietly. He started to drive...except it wasn't in the direction of our home.

"Where are we-"

"Somewhere secluded." I gulped. The car stopped and he turned towards me. He started to crawl towards me and I tried to back away as far as possible. Stupid door! He suddenly grabbed my wrist and pulled me towards him...The window behind him suddenly broke...

And a hand had reached in...

Chapter 2

Naraku was pulled off me and I fell backwards into someone's arms. I closed my eyes in fear, but when I didn't hear anything I opened them slowly. There stood Sango grinning like there was no tomorrow. How can she grin at a time like this is kinda...scary.

"What?" I asked with pure relief. Sitting up I stared at her.

"Nice undies." I looked down embarassed. How did my skirt find its way down there? I shivered.

"Shut up!" I playfully slapped her while I readjusted my skirt. 'Hey...Where's Naraku?' I thought. Reading my mind, Sango pointed to the other side of the car. I looked over and saw Inuyasha beating the daylights out of Naraku. After his little beating, Naraku jumped up and ran out of our sight. Getting out of the car, I made my way towards Inuyasha steadily. How did he know I was in trouble?

"Inuyasha...?" He looked down at me. His eyes still had fire in them. We stared at eachother for a moment. (Aw...)

"You...okay Kagome?" I nodded and blushed. No one had cared before...(besides Sango of course) So I put my arms around his waist and hugged him. I blushed heavily.

"Thank you..." My voice was muffled by his shirt. He awkwardly put his arms around me. I guess...he never hugged anyone before. Let alone a girl.

"Ahem! I'm still here you know. Break up lovebirds." I instantly let him go like he was on fire. Staring at my shoes I blushed even deeper.

"Sorry..." I kept my gaze on my shoe. Hey...what's that yellow stain? I never saw that there before...

"S'ok...Kaggie-baby! Haha!" He said and ran off. I turned around to glare at Sango.

"You didn't..." Hope she didn't tell him that...

"But I did!" She had an innocent smile on. I glared at her even harder.

"Grr...Let's go look for him Sango." She nodded and we both started on a light run, following his trail into the forest. It had been two hours and there was no trace of him. We both went to the big 'Sacred Tree' as we call it. I guess this tree was where I first met Inuyasha. My stomache suddenly grumbled. Come to think of it, I didn't have anyting to eat since...yesterday afternoon? Oh well...was it just me or is it getting hot too?

"Hey Kag? You okay? Let's go grab something to eat." She must've heard my stomache. Sango got up and held her hand out. I grabbed it greatfully and stood up. Looking at her worried face was the last thing I saw before I saw black.

(Switch to Inuyasha's POV)

I ran off into the tree where I first met Kagome. Gently laying down onto a thick branch, I thought about the moment before. Who was that guy? I could sense his evil aura, it was so...strong. I never felt an aura that powerful before. Is it that evil being I am set out to find and destroy? I pulled out a piece of paper, tinted with yellow from old age.

It's evil aura, too powerful to destroy but weak enough to break. Once it is broken, kill the evil being inside with the blade of destruction.

What did Father mean? Oh well...I'll figure it out sooner or later...But...how can an evil person be involved with Kagome? When I first saw him outside of that classroom, I knew he was trouble. I can even feel her shiver. She had gave off a big wave of fear...

She left and right after I asked to go to the bathroom. But I went to find Sango and told her that this man with red eyes came by to pick up Kagome. She looked worried and told me she's coming with. What makes Kagome different from other girls? When I saw her fear I wanted to be the one to make her stop being scared and be there for her...almost like her protector.

"Stupid wench...what is she doing to me?" I pouted. But I smirked right after. When she hugged me her scent was so soothing...it smelled so sweet...like a field of flowers on a summer day.

Two girls just sat down at the base looking tired. Guess they gave up on finding me. I looked at Kagome. She looked like she ran two whole marathons. Her face was all red and she was sweating. It looked like she was sick.

"Hey Kag? You okay? Let's go grab something to eat." I heard Sango. She's worried...but why? She held out her hand and Kagome took it. She stood up and was gonna fall backwards. I widened my eyes. Jumping down, I caught her. I looked at Sango.

"Is she okay? What happened? Did you do something to her?" I asked her. She gave me a weirded look. Blinking rapidly, I waited for her to answer my questions.

"Inuyasha...In fact I DID do something to her. Even if she is my best friend yes, yes I did something to her. I drugged her that's what. C'mon Inuyasha are you THAT stupid?"

"What! Why you little-"

"Inuyasha! I was being sarcastic! Men these days..."

"Hey! What did you-"

"Inuyasha, shut up! I think Kagome has a fever. I'll bring her to my house okay?" She said with a sigh. Is she nuts?

"Sango I'll take her to my house. That guy might suspect her to be at your house and he'll go after her...Who was that bastard anyways?" I said trying to stay clam. Thinking about that bastard just makes me want to run my claws through him.

"His name is Naraku. He's Kagome's step-dad." So she's not related to him. That's a relief.

"What happened to her Mom?" I asked, breaking my own thoughts.

"I really don't know myself. Kagome never really talked about her. I think it's a really painful subject...Inuyasha just go and bring her to your house before her fever gets worse. We'll think about that later." I nodded and held her more securely.

"You coming Sango?" She shook her head.

"Nope. I have to get home to Kohaku. Bye Inuyasha. You better take good care of her okay? Don't do something that'll hurt her! If you do, I'll personally cut off your balls and shove it down your throat! Cya later!" She said while running off. I rolled my eyes. Taking a deep breath, I ran at top speed to my home.

Reaching my home, I brought her upstairs to my room and laid her down on my bed. I covered her with a blanket tightly. Staring at her, I couldn't help but notice how she looked so sad. Sighing I left to go get a bowl of cold water and a cloth.

(Kagome's POV.)

I opened my eyes and saw that I was in the park alone. Looking straight ahead I saw two figures.

"Inuyasha? Sango? Is that you?" I started walking towards them. The closer I got the farther they went. "Hey! You guys wait up!" I ran, but tripped and fell. "Son of a-"

"Kagome..." Was that a womans voice? It sounds familiar.

"Who are you?" I yelled to nowhere in particular.

"Kagome, you don't reconize me? I'm your Mother." I gasped, letting my tears fall.

"M...Mom? Mom, where are you?" I turned around in every direction, looking for her. Everything is black.

"Kagome, listen to me. That boy, Inuyasha will help you. Keep him close to your heart."

"Help me with wha-"

"Kagome I'm sorry but I have to go now honey. Bye sweetie..."

"Mom! Mommy, don't go!" I fell, landing on my butt and put my arms around my knees. Putting my head on them, I cried. "Mommy..."

"Kagome...Kagome...Wake up...Wench! You're getting my pillow wet! And I just bought new cases!"

"Inuyasha?" I saw a white ball and touched it.

(End Dream) Kagome's POV.

I sat up and hit something hard.

"Ow...wench. What do you have in your head!"

"Huh?" I blinked a couple of times. Looking up I saw Inuyasha rubbing his nose. He looked at me. Err...where am I anyways...and where's Sango? I thought.

"You okay?" Shaking my head to get some thoughts out, I nodded.

"Yeah. Fine."

"You hungry? I'll go make something." He asked. He's so nice sometimes...(Aw...!)

"I'm fine Inuyasha. I'm gonna go okay?" I started getting up.

"What are you trying to do? Get even more sick?" He pushed my back down. "And you're not going to you're...home. You're staying here. At least you're protected here. You got that? Even you don't deserve what he does to you."

"But!-" Think an excuse...Oh my gosh! What about Souta!

"No buts!"

"What if he comes here? He's strong Inu-"

"He won't. I can promise you that."

"Inuyasha...I can't risk that. I'm going home."

"No you're not!"

"Yes I am!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Yes!"

"No!"

"Fine...you're right...I'll stay Inuyasha." Hehe...I'll sneak off at night when he's snoozing away like a little puppy he is. I smirked a little.

"Glad you see it- Why are you smirking Kagome...?"

"Oh nothing Inuyasha...Say I'm kinda hungry. Maybe I will have something to eat after all...Hehe..." He gave me a Are-You-up-To-Something look. Giving him the most innocent grin I had, my stomache gave a loud growl. He stared at me with curious eyes and walked away right after. I flopped on my belly, my face landing on his pillow. Taking a deep breath of his forest scent, I fell into a dreamless sleep.

(Inuyasha's POV) WARNING! Look at A/N at the top of the page...

Seeing that she fell alseep, I went downstairs to cook my specialty...RAMEN! Walking over to my CD player I grabbe the Cd on my counter. Pressing the power button, my desired song came on.

You put your noodles in

You take your noodles out

You put your noodles in

And you stir it all about

You pour all the sauce in

And you stir it all about

That's what it's all about!

(A Bird outside on it's nest... O.O)

"I better go wake her up now." I muttered. Leaving my beloved Ramen, I looked out the window. What the hell is wrong with that bird?

Walking up the stairs to check on Kagome, I took careful steps so I wouldn't fall this time. Opening the door quietly, I walked slowly towards her. Standing there, I just watched her. She looks...ALMOST like an angel. Cause she didn't have...Okay she looks like a peaceful angel. To bad she ain't gonna stay like that! Reaching a hand out to wake her, she rolled to the other side.

"I'll get you back Souta..." She murmured. Souta? Who is this Souta person? Oh well!

"Kagome, wake up!" I said while shaking her shoulder.

"Five more minutes Mommy..."She groaned. Mommy...? Me having no patience whatsoever would not wait any longer while my noodles are getting cold.

"Dammit Kagome! Wake your ass up! It's my bed and the noodles are done!" I yelled, hoping to get her butt up.

"Noodles! Where!" She sat up and started looking in every direction. Her eyes landed on me and she looked up blushing.

"Downstairs, baka." I chuckled lightly. Getting up, I walked to the door. I can feel her eyes following me. "I know that I'm hot but, you don't have to watch my every move you know." I turned around to face her.

"Hm? Yeah...coming...And you're not hot! I repeat NOT hot!" She got out of the bed and followed right behind me. She took a seat at the little table. Walking to the cupboards, I grabbed two bowls and two pairs of chopsticks. Pouring the noodles in each bowl, I drooled slightly. Bringing them to the table I grinned, proud of my work.

"Smells great! Thanks Inuyasha!" Kagome she said and smiled. Her voice sounded so greatful.

"No prob. Here." I handed her one of the bowls and I started eating. When I looked up, she didn't even touch hers. Her expression showed it all. "What's wrong, you okay?"

"Yeah..It's just no one was ever nice to me before besides Sango of course...So...I..Thank you..."

"Like I said. No prob. And can we stop with the Thank you's? Too many thank you's for me is kinda...Scary." She nodded and started eating.

After dinner we both fell on the couch and burped...Well I burped and she tried. It came out as a squeak. We laugh a little and I told her she can have the bed. Even if it was MY bed. She asked where would I sleep and I told her the couch. We argued and she wanted the couch and that I could have my bed. But in the end, I won and we both agreed that I would have the couch and she, the bed. We said goodnight to eachother and went our seperate ways.

(Kagome's POV.) Two big paragraphs ahead...

Even if Inuyasha was still nice to me, I'm still leaving no matter what. We argued about the sleeping arrangements. I wanted the couch so I could escape through the front door. But noooo... he just had to be nice and now I'm in his bedroom again. Looking at the green glowing numbers on his alarm clock, it read 3:05am. I guess I'm leaving now. I have to get to Souta before that monster comes and does something to him. Writing a note just in case, I placed it on his bed. Walking to the window, I opened it. A gust of wind came in and I shivered. Looking around for something to escape on, I saw a tree! Thank you to whoever is up there!

"I'll come and get you Souta, no matter what it takes..." I whispered while jumping towards the tree. Making my way down one branch at a time, I got to the last one and slipped. Let's just say I didn't land like a graceful feather...Or a dropped cow. I just hope Inuyasha didn't hear. I took a deep cold breath and walked across his big yard to the fence that was dividing our properties. Just over this fence I have to be careful inside and out. Climbing over like a 'graceful' and quiet cat, I jumped down. I stood still, waiting for something to pop up. I guess he's not here, but I know Souta is. Taking my first silent step, someone had grabbed my waist...Maybe I was wrong.

(Inuyasha's POV.)

I woke up with a jump. Something's not right... I can feel it. Why can't I sense Kagome's presence? Am I human tonight? No...I still have my claws. Maybe I'll just check on her...Just in case. Climbing the stairs, I opened my room door just a bit. I felt a light breeze of the wind. The window's open.

"Kagome?" Opening the door full, I turned the light on. Looking towards the bed, I didn't see a snoring lump, but a note. Taking a leap, I picked up the note and opened it. Her scent is still here just a little. Looking at my clock it was 3:35am. I can't believe she just left. Stupid girl. I can't be worried can I? Shaking my head, I read the note:

Inuyasha,

I'm sorry but I'm going home to find Souta. Thanks for everything.

Kagome

With no second to waste I ran downstairs opened the door and ran out. Running to the fence, I jumped over it. Landing quietly, my eyes darted everywhere. In the distance I saw a huddled figure that was giving off a scent of salt; tears.

"Kagome?"

(Kagome's POV.)

Souta had surprised me. I turned around to face him. What I saw made me cry. He had a black eye, a bruise on his cheek and a busted lip that had dried blood. I kneeled down and hugged him gently.

"Souta...what happened? Are you okay?" I asked trying to hold back a sob.

"He threatened me to tell him where you were. Of course I didn't know and told him the truth. And he didn't believe me. He thought I was lying so he...beat me...he garbbed a jar Kagome! He raised it over his head...but his phone rang...and he just left. I..I was scared Kagome!"

"Oh Souta...I'm so sorry...I promise I'll never leave your side again." I pinky sweared him with tears streaming down my face. I kneeled there hugging him like he was my life line, and I him.

"Kagome?" I heard a masculine voice. Did he come back already? I stood up, still hugging Souta and turned around. Seeing silver hair, I was relieved.

"Inuyasha?" I asked with a croak. I watched him jump over to us in one leap.

"Kagome, what were you thinking just leaving like that! What if he got you and no one was there to save you!" He yelled so loudly, that I think he woke up the neighbours.

"Shh...Inuyasha, I'm fine. " I said as quietly as I could. Just remembering Souta was still here, I looked up at Inuyasha. I can feel him trembling in my arms. "Inuyasha, this is my brother Souta. I had to leave to get him. Souta this is Inuyasha. He saved me from Naraku." Inuyasha nodded at Souta and opened his mouth.

"You guys can stay over. We have to fix you up too, Souta." Inuyasha started walking. Both of us following like little puppies, but we both hugged eachother not letting go.

"You okay Souta?" I asked quietly. Nodding his head, he grinned at me. "What? Is there something on my face?" I asked smiling.

"Nope...two reasons. I finally get to hug you without him ripping us apart and that I have a new Hero!"

"Who is he? Tell me! Tell me or I have to tickle you to death. C'mon spill the beans!" I whispered loudly. He stopped walking, and I lowered my head to his height.

"It's...Inuyasha!" He's so cool!" He whispered back excitedly. I looked towards Inuyasha. His cute little doggy ears were twitching in our direction. Staring at him for awhile, I felt a light tug at my arm. "Kagome, will Inuyasha be my brother-in-law or what?" Glaring at him, I blushed a little too.

"Souta! Shh...You're the weirdest kid you know that?" Well...maybe he will be...one day.

(Inuyasha's POV.) Last switching POV's I promise!

Kagome and Souta didn't know it but I can hear them perfectly clear through their whispers. So, the squirt thought I was a hero huh? Weird kid. Oh shit...Shippou's coming tomorrow. I hate that stupid brat.

Making a few more steps, I heard Souta ask the question: "Kagome, will Inuyasha be my brother-in-law or what?" I blushed. That would be nice...WHAT IN THE SEVEN DEPTHS OF HELL AM I THINKING!Shaking my head to clear that out, all I knew was that she'll never want me as her husband or mate or whatever. I'm just a stupid hanyou. A worthless stupid pathetic hanyou. I sighed to myself when I reached the porch.

"Oi, you guys hurry up! You're gonna freeze to death!" I yelled at them to get in. Boy...this is gonna be a long night. Aw...crap I have a Math test tomorrow too!
