"Inuyasha, what was that for?" Asked a surprised Kagome.
"Well…err….uhh…you see..I …you.." said a quite embarrassed hanyou who was having a hard time trying to find the right thing to say. By now the color of his face was almost as bright as Kagome's.
" I'm sorry!" Inuyasha cried before he jumped out the window twice as fast as he came in.
"No Inuyasha wait!" Shouted Kagome as she saw Inuyasha sprinting toward the well house." sit sit sit sit sit sit!" Yelled a frantic miko. There that should hold him off until I get there. Thought Kagome. Kagome backed away from the windowsill she was standing by and made her way to the door. While stampeding down the stairs so she could get to Inuyasha before the spell wore off, she heard her mother call her name quietly.
"Not now mother, I have to go talk with Inuyasha!" She said as she ran past the room her mother was in. But she stopped suddenly as she saw her mother on the couch with head in her hands, and by the way she was crying by the way her shoulders were moving up and down.
" Mama what's wrong?" Kagome asked while coming over to sit on the couch with her mother. When her mother didn't answer right away Kagome just stayed there waiting patiently for a response. As mother did answer it was in the most quiet and serious voice she had heard her mother speak in, in a while.
" Kagome do you remember that your grandfather left for a convention right before you went back to the feudal ear? Do you remember him saying that he would be home on Wednesday?"
"Yeah" replied Kagome who was now realizing it was Saturday.
"Well" continued her mother." On the way home your grandfather was in a car accident." Kagome gasped as she heard what her mother had said.
"Well where is he? Is he all right? When is he coming home? Can we go see him? What hap…."
"Kagome." Mrs. Higurashi interrupted her daughters last statement." I'm sorry Kagome but……he….didn't..make…it." Said Mrs. Higurashi as she started to cry again. Kagome who was still realizing what her mother had just said wasn't crying or really doing anything, just sitting there trying to cope with her mothers words. Her grandfather, who had been there ever since her birth, was gone. He had been there when she had fallen through the well, and he had brought her time traveling secret to the grave just like her said he would. She had only hoped he wouldn't bring it to the grave this soon. Kagome, who was now just fully realizing her mother's words, slowly got up from the couch and began to walked out the door.
"Kagome, where are you going?" Her mother asked her in between sobs.
"I just need to clear my head." Replied Kagome as she continued to walk.
She had know idea where she was going, she just needed to be anywhere but here. Kagome was deep in thought before she realized she was in the well house. Her cheeks reddened as she remembered her kiss with Inuyasha. But her face went pale, as she thought of how she would never be able to give her grandfather a hug or a kiss ever again. She hadn't even had a chance to say goodbye! Before she knew it she had jumped into the well and was now traveling 500 years into the past. As she climbed out of the well she looked around. The gigantic trees, the flowers, everything that she normally was so eager to see again looked dull and unassuming. She had been doing so well, but as she thought of her grandfather who would never be able to see anything anymore she fell to the ground and started to cry.
As she cried a baffled Hanyou jumped silently down from the tree he had be watching in the whole time.
"Kagome, are you alright? I sorry I did it." Said Inuyasha who was thinking she as crying because he had kissed her. Of course she's crying you baka. She probably got her first kiss from a filthy half-breed like you. What were you thinking? Inuyasha turned to see Kagome looking at him.
"Kagome, I'm sorry, I don't now what I was thinking."
As Inuyasha was finishing his last word Kagome threw herself into his arms and continued to cry."
"Oh Inuyasha, He's gone! He died, and I didn't even get to say good bye!"
Inuyasha who was slightly stunned to see the crying miko in his arms wasn't quite sure of what to do. So he just held her, and let her use his shoulder to cry on. But as Inuyasha patted her hair trying to comfort her, he was unaware of the presence watching them from the cover of the trees.
Authors note- Ok I'm sorry if you don't like this chapter! I know its not very well written and there isn't very much fluff, but don't worry there will be fluff to come in later chapters. I was trying to write this very late at night because I couldn't sleep. So if it's so bad, then I'm sorry! Like I said in my other stories, no flames please! But constructive criticism would be just fine !
