Chapter 1: Waiting
Shippou poked the sleeping man's side while his foster mother, Sango, and Miroku waited at the door.
"Are you sure he's not dead momma?" Shippou curiously asked while still poking the man.
Kagome chuckled, "Yes honey, I'm very sure, he's just in a deep sleep."
"Oh."
Kagome walked over to Shippou and picked him up leaving the room while Miroku and Sango stayed behind to talk.
"How long do you think it will take until he wakes up?" Sango asked.
Miroku rubbed his chin, making it look like he was thinking very hard, "I don't know. It could take him a few days, weeks, or even years."
Sango sighed, "Poor guy, his face looks so peaceful. I wonder if he is still that annoying little brat when we were little."
Miroku chuckled, "Come on my dear Sango, I smell breakfast downstairs."
Sango rolled her eyes, but went with Miroku anyways after closing the door.
Kitchen/Nook
"Shippou did you finish your breakfast yet?" Kagome asked.
"Yes momma. What are we going to do today?" He asked.
"Well, Miroku and Sango are going to work… right?" Kagome look at them.
"Yah. I have a lot of work to do since I have to sub in for you, Kagome since the boss let you off for two weeks to care of InuYasha." Sango explained.
"Yes, and I am fully booked today at the temple." Miroku said.
"So Shippou and I can…," Kagome couldn't think of anything.
Just then the phone rang and Kagome went to go pick it up.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Kagome?"
"Hey Kaede. How are you?"
"I'm good. I was wondering if Shippou could come over for a bit because grandpa has a small surprise for him."
"Sure let me ask him," Kagome set the phone down, "Shippou grandma Kaede asked if you want to come over. She said grandpa has a surprise for you."
At the word surprise Shippou's face lit up, "YAH! YAH! YAH!"
"Okay." Kagome picked up the phone.
"He's really excited."
"Wonderful. Bye bye now Kagome dear."
"Bye."
Kagome hung up the phone.
"Okay Shippou I'll drive you over there."
"That's okay Kagome, Sango and I are leaving right now anyways and we pass by Kaede's house so we could drop him off." Miroku offered.
Kagome smiled," Sure thanks Miroku."
"Bye momma."
"Bye honey have a great day."
"Bye Kagome."
"See You later Miro."
"I'll call to check up on you at the office later Sango."
"Okay bye Kago-Chan."
Kagome let out a breath after she heard the door shut.
"Now I can eat my breakfast."
Once she finished the phone rang once again.
"Moshi moshi?"
"Hey Kago-chan how's it going with InuYasha?" Rin's voice sounded on the phone.
"Sorry Rin but there's been no progress. I've been exercising his muscles and talking to him, but there seems to be no progress as of yet."
"oh."
"You'll be the first to hear if there is anything new."
"Okay Kago-chan you're the best."
"I know. Bye."
Kagome's day went by pretty slow she spent most of the day cleaning the house and tidying all the rooms. It was 8:00 pm now and everyone was due to be home any minute now.
"I better go check on InuYasha."
With Inu
Kagome opened the door to still see him sleeping in the same position.
"We better exercise your muscles or else you won't be able to move when you wake up… if you ever wake up…" Kagome whispered. She shook her head of the negative thoughts and began the exercises.
Once she was done started talking to him.
"Hey, long time no see. The last time we met was 18 years ago. You might not remember me, but I remember you from all the nagging and the whining and the teasing you did to me those years. Rin and Sesshoumaru seem really happy together now, but they're so worried about you… yeah that's right Sesshoumaru's worried about you." Kagome could have sworn she saw a small smile form on his face, but it was gone as quickly as it came, "But you have people that care for you so you have to wake up." Kagome sighed as she stared at him.
She moved his bangs out of his eyes and pulled the blanket over his body
Ding Dong!
"They must be home!" Kagome said as she walked out closing the door behind her.
Little did Kagome know that after she left InuYasha's eyes slowly opened before closing once again.
