Annnd I am sorry for the wait but I have been very very very very very busy..! Seriously. Anywhoo here's a recap… ENJOY!

--

Inuyasha chuckled, "So when I burnt my tongue I triggered your memory?"

Kagome nodded, "Can I see them again?"

"Sure,"

"So I guess they live in the future right? Through the well…"

"Inuyasha can take you to see them tomorrow," said Sango.

Kagome smiled not only at the thought of meeting her family, but at the fact that her past, present and future were becoming clearer to her.

--

"You ready yet?" asked an irritated Inuyasha.

Kagome was sitting at the edge of a pond, examining her reflection. The scratch across her face had healed perfectly. Kagome reached into her pocket and pulled out a white bandana with an intricate black pattern, she then tied it around her head to hide her ears. She stared into her reflection intently; her eyes were noticeable as ever.

"Inuyasha" she grumbled, "How am I going to hide my eyes?"

"I don't know, just don't look at anyone," he muttered impatiently.

"Seriously," she said sitting up and glaring at him.

Inuyasha faltered under her glare, "Alright why don't you wear those human things?"

"Glasses?" said Kagome rolling her eyes, "You can see through those!"

"No the dark ones…" Inuyasha crinkled his face as he tried to remember the name, "Something stupid like light glasses or something."

"Oooh Sunglasses!" said Kagome in an exaggerated voice with a fake smile, her face then fell grave and she shrieked "HOW WILL I GET THOSE!"

Shippo, who has tendency to appear (either because he's always there but nobody notices him, or because he's always lurking in the bushes), hopped out between Inuyasha and Kagome.

"Kagome's really pre-menstrual isn't she?" he chirped.

Kagome's head swerved around to meet Shippo, who cowered behind Inuyasha.

"Miroku told me to say it to Sango," said Shippo, "And she thought it was funny!"

"No she didn't," said Sango, who also happened to pop out of the bushes, "You thought it was funny when I slapped Miroku."

Miroku followed behind Sango, he was gingerly rubbing his cheek, "Don't worry Shippo I thought you were funny both times."

Kagome, who had already risen to her feet, whacked Miroku on the backside of the head.

"Were all of you spying on us?" asked Kagome half-listening as she fixed her hair.

"Let's just go," said Inuyasha grabbing Kagome's hand and walking in the direction of the well.

Inuyasha lead Kagome to a small, dried up, wooden well. Kagome leaned over the edge and looked into the well, there was a nasty looking pile of bones.

"Inuyasha where's the portal?" asked Kagome.

Inuyasha rolled his eyes and picked Kagome up and slung her over his shoulder.

"SIT!" she shrieked.

Inuyasha collapsed. Kagome, crawled out from under his grip and glanced into the well again.

"Inuyasha I don't really think this is safe," she said, "I mean didn't you say there was a portal? I don't see one anywhere."

Inuyasha suppressed a few swear words and replied as calmly as he could, "If you jump in you'll go through."

"Will the bones cut me?" she asked.

"Suck it up you're a demon!" said Inuyasha as he jumped over the edge.

Kagome watched him disappear beneath the sea of bones.

"I must be crazy," said Kagome before she jumped over the edge of the well.

She went right through the dirt into a blue-ish void, she traveled through there for only a few seconds before she hit the cool hard ground. "Inuyasha was standing at the top of a well. He leant over the edge and offered her a hand. Even though Kagome knew she could hop over without his help she blushed and held out her hand. Inuyasha pulled her up with ease, when she was at the edge he used his other arm and pulled her into him. He looked down at her awkwardly, she looked down and smiled.

"Thank you," she said.

"No problem," said Inuyasha as he motioned towards one of the buildings, "This is your house,"

Kagome followed him and looked down at the ground, she had a lump in her throat she was nervous.

"Inuyasha, can I ask you a favor?" asked Kagome.

"Yeah, what is it?"

"Could we pretend that nothing happened? That I didn't lose my memory?"

Inuyasha frowned, "Why would you want to do that?"

"Well what if they act differently around me if I'm this way?"

Inuyasha looked up at the sky, he understood, he remembered how people treated him differently because he was a hanyou. But would Kagome's family react like other people?

He looked back at her, "Well alright,"

Kagome smiled, "Thank you,"

"Here let me fetch you some of those light glasses or whatever you call them. There's probably some in your bedroom,"

Kagome nodded, "I'll wait for you."

Inuyasha ran up the house, jumped/crawled up the house and hopped through the open window. After a clanking noise and a shriek Inuyasha jumped back out the window holding a pair of sun glasses.

"Here you go," he said handing her a thick brown rimmed pair of sunglasses.

Kagome took them and propped them on her head, "Thank you," she repeated.

"Stop saying that; you sound like a parrot," said Inuyasha with a hint of irritation.

Kagome rolled her eyes, 'Arrrg why do I keep forgetting he's an ass!' she thought to herself.

"You have a mom and a grampa… and a brother named Sota," said Inuyasha ticking them off with his fingers, "Ready?"

Kagome nodded, "Let's go,"

Kagome stepped through the door, she looked back at Inuyasha then back at her living room. He nudged her.

"I'm hoooome," yelled Kagome.

Sota was playing with the cat, "Oh hey sis,"

"Hey Sota," Kagome kneeled on the carpet.

"I just love this cat," she said as she petted him.

"I never knew you were so fond of him," said her mother as she stepped out of the kitchen carrying a tray of food.

"Oh," chirped Kagome, "What unusual food,"

Sota looked at her funny, "Why are you wearing sunglasses indoors?"

"Do you have a fever?" asked her mom.

"No!" said Kagome backing away, "I'm just a bit light headed, I'll just go to my room!"

Kagome set off in the direction of the bathroom.

"Kagome the stairs are to the left," said her mother wearing a puzzled expression.

Kagome's mother looked at Inuyasha, who shrugged.

Once Kagome got into her room she collapsed on the bed and chocked back tears.

Inuyasha followed her in, "What's wrong?"

Kagome squinted her eyes and sat up, "Nothing, it's nothing,"

"Kagome it's not a big deal you were fine," said Inuyasha.

Kagome shrugged, "I just want to be alone right now,"

Inuyasha gave her a puzzled expression and walked away.

He sat outside on the front step. 'Why is she so sensitive? And why is it that when she's sad she doesn't want me around? And man is it hot out here!' Inuyasha pulled off his red kimono top and put it beside him.

Soon Inuyasha heard chattering and footsteps coming his way. Human scents wafted through the air. Three girls, all dressed in the same weird clothes as Kagome, walked around a tall handsome brown haired guy in a blue sweater.

"Hello is Kagome there?" asked the boy.

"Feh," said Inuyasha as he rolled his eyes.

"Who's he?" asked one of the girls.

"Could he be..?" asked another.

"No he couldn't, he's too cute," said the third as the two others giggled.

"Well we'll just let ourselves in," said the guy, he was carrying some funny shaped fruit and a small box.

One of the girls tired to open the door, but Inuyasha was blocking it.

"Can you move please?" asked another.

"Kagome wants to be alone right now," said Inuyasha sulkily.

"We just want to give her something," said one of the girls.

"Feh," said Inuyasha getting up.

He heard the rumble as they clambered up the stairs to Kagome's room. Being curious and all, Inuyasha crept up the wall and propped himself up just beside Kagome's window so he could listen in on what was happening. He could here them talking inside.

"Hey Kagome!" chirped the girls.

"Hey!" said Kagome smiling.

"Are you alright Kagome you look sad," said one of the girls.

"No I'm fine."

"Are you sure?" asked a manly voice, obviously the boy's, in a very caring tone.

Inuyasha peered over the ledge of the window.

The boy too both Kagome's hands and held them, "I wouldn't want you to be in pain or anything,"

Kagome seemed to be at a loss for words.

"I have two questions for you," started the boy, "First, will you come to the movies with me on Saturday? And Secondly, why are you wearing sunglasses?"

Before Kagome could respond her friends ambushed her and pulled her away.

With his keen sense of hearing Inuyasha could hear what they were talking about.

"Hojo's liked you FOREVER!" said one of the girls.

"And he's soooo cute!" said another.

"You can't stay hung up over that other guy that you like!" said the third.

"Well…" said Kagome.

The boy, apparently called Hobo (or some other stupid name), was trying to court Kagome! As if Kouga wasn't enough! Inuyasha growled.

Kagome's ear pricked up under her bandana and her nostrils flared and she took a good whiff of the air. Her expression immediately looked worried; she knew he was there.

"Kagome is something wrong?" asked Hojo/Hobo.

Kagome's eyes widened and she shook her head.

"Can we have some alone time?" he asked as he motioned for the door.

The three girls giggled and scrambled out of the room.

"Kagome, I really like you," said Hojo.

"I don't know if this is the time," said Kagome slowly inching away.

"Shh," hushed the Hojo as he held up a finger to her mouth (you know the shushing finger), "There's something that I've wanted to do for a long time,"

He leant in closer and closed his eyes, Kagome lunged back and turned her head to the side.

Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore.

"Get your hands off of her!" he shrieked as he hopped through the window.

Hojo was startled, "Whaaaa?"

"Draw your sword you filthy lecher!"

Kagome looked all too confused to say anything.

"Who are you?" asked Hojo looking upset.

"Uhh," started Inuyasha.
"Alright," started Hojo who suddenly gained back his confidence, "Well since it's obvious that you're nothing to her…Can you please leave?"

Inuyasha growled, "Draw your sword you filthy lecher,"

Hojo gave him a confused look, "Can I ask you a question?"

"That doesn't leave me much of a choice now does it?" asked Inuyasha sneering.

Hojo sneered and took off his sweater and threw it on the floor (A/N: You know what I'm getting at. Dramatically pulling off your sweater and throwing it away)

Hojo looked impressive in his tight white muscle shirt, but he was nothing compared to Inuyasha. Inuyasha pulled off his white kimono top (A/N: I'm really sorry but I don't know the terminology for all the items in his outfit ). Kagome almost swooned at the sight of him, man was he hot! Hojo was built, but beside Inuyasha he looked scrawny… But back on track…

Hojo looked a bit worried now that he realized that Inuyasha was a tank.

"Well?" said Inuyasha, "Not scared are you?"

Hojo frowned, and took a punch at him, "Never!"

Inuyasha lazily dodged it "Is that the best you can do?"

By now Kagome had finally come back to her senses, "Stop! Don't fiiiiight!"

"Feh," said Inuyasha, "I won't hurt him too bad,"

While Inuyasha was turned Hojo managed to get a punch in, Inuyasha did not budge, it didn't even hurt… at all, but it was enough to get him off.

"Fckkk this!" yelled Inuyasha as he drew his tetsusaiga.

Hojo's eyes widened as he scrambled away.

Before Inuyasha could slash at him with the sword Kagome shrieked, "Sit!"

Inuyasha collapsed, leaving Hojo with a large enough time frame to escape.

"What did you think you were doing?" huffed Kagome.

Inuyasha got up, placing a hand on his aching back he replied, "Saving you!"

"From what?"

"From that nasty lecher!"

"He wasn't going to do anything," shrieked Kagome.

"I saw!" huffed Inuyasha.

"Saw what?"

"Why are you defending him?" asked Inuyasha angrily ignoring her question.

"I'm not!"

"Yes you are!"

"No I'm not!"

"I guess you liked it," said Inuyasha sneering, "I didn't know you were that type of girl."

Kagome's eyes flickered black, she looked scary. Inuyasha was a bit intimidated.

"He was going to kiss you," grumbled Inuyasha looking at the floor.

"No he wasn't!" said Kagome looking relieved. She pointed to the weird vegetable on her bed, "He wanted to give me a squash!"

Inuyasha gave her a puzzled expression.

"You know what? Just leave!" yelled Kagome angrily.

"What?"

"Just go!" she yelled.

Inuyasha 'feh'd and jumped back out the window and into the well.

A few hours later, when Kagome had calmed down and spent more time with her family, she went back through the well. She had some questions for Inuyasha. Why did he get so worked up over Hojo? Was he this possessive over all of his friends? Did he know something about that Hobo guy that she didn't?

Kagome easily jumped out of the well. When she got out she immediately detected the scent of a demon around.

"Kagome?" asked a male voice from behind her. Kagome swerved around to see a tall handsome wolf-like demon. (A/N: You all know what he looks like… So why go into detail?)

"Who are you?" asked Kagome.

"Kouga," said the man pulling off her bandana and touching her ears, "What did that mangy mutt do to you?"

"What?" asked Kagome, "You mean Inuyasha?"

"Who else?"

Kagome stayed silent.

Kouga's expression suddenly changed "Do you remember anything?"

Kagome looked at the ground and replied, "No."

"Do you and Dog-breath have anything going on?"

Before Kagome opened her mouth to answer yes she remembered how much of an ass he had been and answered, "No."

"Good cause you're my woman."
