Maybe Memories

Confessions to a Mother

"We should have our weddings together!" Sango gasped out loudly. Both men turned to look at the two women who were now squealing excitedly and hopping around in circles. Sango assumed that Kagome liked the idea and went on "Well, when do you want to have it!"

Once the two girls stopped their hopping and squealing Kagome settled down to the question at hand "Soon. How about in a week or two for here? Then Inuyasha and I have to go to my time and I have to tell my mom. I wonder how she's going to deal with it…"

More eager than anything to get telling her mother about her situation over with, she grabbed Inuyasha's hand and pulled him up "Sango, you and Miroku can start planning alright? Inuyasha and I are going back to my time to tell my mom and brother the good news…" She didn't know if her family would take this sudden change in relationship between good news or not, but she hoped they would.

Once they got out of the hut Kagome and Inuyasha continued to walk hand in hand to the well, talking things over. "So, how are we going to break the news to my family?" asked Kagome, as she looked ahead, totally aware of the uncomfortable question.

"It doesn't matter. If they disapprove, then that's their problem. You're my mate, no matter what. So let them go to hell if they don't like it. You're mine." Inuyasha said, acting as if he were completely confident about the whole deal, and didn't care if they got her family's approval. The truth was he was really worried that her family wouldn't accept him as Kagome's mate and husband.

"I guess you're right," said a rather miffed Kagome who looked down and away, a little depressed "I just hope they approve. Their support is really important to me." She looked down again and was frowning, when she felt a hand lift her chin up to look into golden eyes.

"Don't worry Kagome, they will. Didn't you say that you were almost out of that place you call school?"

"Yah, I'm almost out of high school. I don't think I'll go to college though. I don't think I'll be able to."

"Why don't you think you'll be able to go to this college thing?"

"Because I might be pregnant and everyone knows that you can't raise children and go to college. Plus, I don't think I really need to go to college if I'm going to be living in the feudal era."

He diverted his eyes from her and took a secretive whiff at her. Just as he thought, it was still too early to know if she was with pup yet "Well, if you want to go to this college thing then I'll look after the pup when you're there. But if you do chose to live in the feudal era… I promise you, I'll take care of you, and you'll never be wanting. Alright?"

A smile appeared on her face as she hugged him quickly and then stepped up onto the rim of the bone eaters well. Inuyasha stepped up with her and took her into his arms as they both jumped down and into another era.

Once in her era, Kagome and Inuyasha left the well house and headed towards her own home. When first walking through the door, the couple didn't see anyone. But once they got into the living room, they saw her small family around the t-v, laughing at a movie.

"Mom, Gramps, Souta! I'm back!" Kagome called out as she walked into the living room. She watched as her mom got up and rushed over to her, giving her a big hug.

"We got a letter and it said you were accepted into college! And you graduate in a couple days! Isn't this great?"

Kagome was a little shocked and smiled a bit "Really? I'm surprised I didn't know all of this! But mom… I'm not going to college."

The smile on her moms face dropped a little as she tilted her head "Why not?" She saw the look on her daughters face so she went over to the couch and sat down, turning off the t-v. The whole family turned towards Kagome and Inuyasha, all of them with questioning looks on their faces.

"I'm… Going to live in the feudal era with Inuyasha." She took a big gulp and then took a big breath in as Inuyasha put his arm around her "This is because… Well, Inuyasha and I are mates and we're going to get married." She said all of this as quickly as she could, as if it would soften the blow on her family a bit.

There was a pause and a long awkward silence that swept through the room. Souta was the first one to recover as he smiled and ran over to Inuyasha and gave him a big hug "That means you're my big brother now! COOL! And I get a little half demon nephew or niece too! COOLER! This is AWESOME!"

Kagome's Grandpa was the next to show his reaction as he walked over to Inuyasha and shook his hand "Congratulations you too. Welcome to the family, young man. But you know you have to take good care of my niece and bring her back often to visit. Agreed?"

Inuyasha was all smiles so far and nodded eagerly "I will no worries about that. She'll be the happiest mate there ever was." He watched as her grandpa slowly nodded. Everybody went quiet as they turned to Mrs. Higurashi who still hadn't commented or moved.

Slipping out of Inuyasha's arms, Kagome walked over to her mother and took her hands in her own, kneeling down. She looked up into her moms turned down face with her chocolate brown eyes "Mom… Are you alright?"

A few tears trickled down her mothers face as she gave a big smile to her daughter and hugged her "I'm so happy for you Kagome! You and Inuyasha finally together, like it was meant to be! You're going to have the wedding here, right? And you'll let me see my grandchildren often, right?"

A beautiful smile lit Kagome's whole face as she stood up with her mom "Of course we'll come back here often! And I was thinking that we could have two weddings. One in the feudal era with my friends there, and one in this era with friends and family here. Does that sound good?"

"Yes! That sounds wonderful! How about we have the wedding a week after you graduate? Maybe in a week and a half?"

"Sure that sounds great mom!" Kagome was so happy that her family had all supported her and Inuyasha's coupling. Little did she know, but Inuyasha was happy about it too.

"Let's get going then! We have to get your wedding gown and Inuyasha's tux, and we have to start giving out invitations and…. Wow we have so much to do!"

"Alright! Mom… Would you and Inuyasha mind going and getting things ready so I can go to school? Great, thanks! Bye I love you!"

Kagome didn't give either the chance to respond as she grabbed her bag and ran off to school. If she made it in the time she thought she would, she'd be able to get there during her 7th hour. She was running along the road, anticipating the time she could tell all of her friends that Inuyasha and she were getting married.

Spirits sailing she sped through the hallways of her school and into her classroom, all smiles along with her slightly pink cheeks. Her friends Ayumi, Yuka, Eri and Hojo all stood up and waved enthusiastically for Kagome to come sit next to them.

Relieved that the teachers were letting up on rules on the last few days of their high school experience, Kagome sat next to her friends, about to spring her rather surprising information. But, as always, her friend's gossip-quickened mouths beat her to it.

"Kagome! Can you believe it? We're going to graduate! All of us! Together! Did you hear that a couple girls are already planning on getting married RIGHT after high school instead of going to college? Isn't that just absurd?" Yuka burst out as she watched her friends face visibly pale.

Ayumi was the first to notice that Kagome's smile had quickly departed "Kagome… What's wrong? Are you not feeling well? Let's get you to the nurse's office before you get worse, alright?"

Quickly shaking her head Kagome stood up and cleared her throat a bit, preparing herself to tell them about her wedding "I was going to say that I'm going to get married to Inuyasha, about a week after we graduate. All of you are invited."

"That's absolutely positively WONDERFUL Kagome!" Eri burst out as she clapped Kagome on the back.

"Yes, this is awesome! So that two-timer of yours finally decided to settle down with you permanently? That's great! Don't listen to anything Yuka says. You getting married is wonderful… Plus, none of us really expected you to go to college." Ayumi's mouth was going a mile a minute.

Hojo and Yuka both sat in silence the whole time. Hojo had an angry, jealous look of rage running across his face. How could that ASS HOLE take Kagome from him? He had been planning to make Kagome the happiest bride there ever was, until this happened.

He wasn't going to let this happen. There was no way that he could let this happen. He stood up and put on a fake smile, telling them he had a doctors appointment that he had to take his grandmother to as he sped out of the room.

Silence ran through the small group of friends as they waited for the bell to ring. Yuka coughed a little to settle the silence "Well… I don't think he took that one too well. Poor guy, he really had his hopes set on you. But as long as you're really in love with this Inuyasha guy, I don't see why that would matter."

Slightly perturbed, Kagome sat until the bell rang, the look on Hojo's face running through her mind. As she got up and walked out of the room, she decided on a way to get home. She was slightly weak in the knees at the moment for some reason. (A/N: For those who don't know, it's because she's not close enough to Inuyasha because of what happened in the earlier chapters.)

Walking down the overgrown forest path that she usually took to get home, she had an uneasy feeling somebody was watching her. She quickened her pace but couldn't do anything as she felt herself being roughly pulled into the bushes and far off of the path.

Screeching, but having a hand to silence it, she opened her eyes that had been tightly squeezed closed. She was looking right up into Hojo's lustful face and she gulped, trying to get her teeth into the flesh in his hand.

Tears slid down her cheeks as she felt his hands rip at her clothing and heard his husky-violent voice "Kagome, this is for our own good. We were meant to be together. Now if I do this, you'll have to be mine. No other man wants a defiled woman for his bride. But I want you, so this is the only way for it to happen like it should. Just relax and let happen what's meant to happen."

She was fighting with all her might, which slowly began to diminish itself. She had never been so weak in her life. After she was laid exposed in only her bra, and with her skirt slightly hitched up, Hojo's hands went for his own pants.

'An idiot like always… thank god!' She took her opportunity and used her self defense skills to get herself out of the predicament. She went for the jugular notch, the dent in the middle of his collarbone and pushed hard down and in, sending him into a coughing fit. She then went for the mandibular angle, the little dent behind his ear lobe, and used the tip of her thumb to jab hard in and towards his nose.

Hojo was in so much pain by now that he was powerless to do anything against Kagome getting up. She then used the brachial plexus tie in at his shoulder end of the collar bone to put him asleep by hitting the right side three times hard, and quick. All this time she had been screaming at the top of her lungs, even if she knew it was too far away for even Inuyasha to hear.

She left the passed out Hojo, her shirt, her underwear, her school bag and whatever else and ran down the trail as fast as she could, crying hard and breathing fast. Her knees were trembling and she knew she wouldn't be able to make it all the way to her house at this rate.

"INUYASHA! INU-YA-SHA!" She cried out. Just yelling his name seemed to make her stronger (A/N: That and the fact that you're getting closer to him… Ha). How she wished she had taken her shirt with her. She felt so vulnerable in just her bra. What if the tie in was starting to wear off already?

Inuyasha's ears twitched and he immediately stood up. He had begun to worry about Kagome, since it had started to become dark about half an hour ago. But her mother had told him that she would return soon, and that she often went off with her friends.

Walking outside to get a better whiff of the scent and hear better, he smelt Kagome… Her tears, fear, and weakness. Running towards the scent he caught up to his mate to find her hair tousled, her skirt slightly hiked to reveal some parts of her, and her shirt gone.

A growl grew deep in his throat as he smelt another man on her "What the hell happened and who the fuck did this to you?" he growled out as his claws clicked together and tore into his palms. Kagome was crying into his chest for a moment before she pointed towards the trail in the woods.

Somebody was going to have hell to pay.

There's the end of chapter 9! Woo! Woo!

Ok, here are the lyrics to Maybe Memories! Ta DAA!

And we trudge along through the mud, and we tried to call it home, but we weren't alright, not at all, not for one second.

Never have been one to write it down, Now I think I can, I know I'm stronger now, who is looking south? Not me I'm not looking back, I'm done denying the truth to anyone, cause I'm alive.

You showed me how, you seemed to find a hole, but I just laughed and smiled, begged and rolled my eyes, even cried and denied the truth to you, just like the truth to me, mostly lied.

I'm not going to look back

Write it out like glittering butterflies.
