Hello Hello Hello peoples! I am so pissed at my computer right now! Grrrrrrrr! If only I had fangs, yeah, then I could bit it……if that had any point to it.

Disclaimer: Ok, no, I don't Inuyasha, but, does he come with free samples?

Here's a Recap:

She took in a deep breath, separating their embrace, and Inuyasha whimpered slightly in disappointment, but she didn't notice it. "Inuyasha." She looked up at him, "you……" she hesitated. "Why are you here?" His ears drooped downward. He should've seen that coming. What is he going to tell her? He couldn't tell her the real reason, it would chase her away, and he knew it. He'd just have to wait to tell her. If he was going to gain back her trust and love, it would take time.

FINALLY

Chapter four-Here We Are!

Kagome stood, held in Inuyasha's loose embrace. Why wasn't he saying anything? Was it that hard to tell her why he was there? Then she got a thought. Maybe, it was that hard. Kagome, being as broken-hearted as she was since that day 4 years ago, thought of a possible conclusion: 'He's probably here to apologize or something, for not telling me who he chose sooner. But why should it be that hard to tell me that? Or…maybe….' She thought.

"Inuyasha, is…..is some one hurt?" Kagome asked, her panicked eyes staring deep into his soul, well up with tears. Inuyasha instantly felt terrible. He should just tell her the truth! But, nooooooo! Him and his stupid ego. Of course, he seemed to have done a bit of growing up in the past few years, ok, a lot of growing up wink.

"No. No one's hurt. So, you can stop your crying now." He said, arrogantly.

"Well, excuse me for worrying!" she said, backing away from his embrace, frowning.

Inuyasha frowned, not angrily though, but, like he was in deep thought. He looked away and then finally turned to her. He knew he shouldn't yell back, and he knew he should start treating her better. He only had a slim chance of completing his life, right here, right now (not at the exact moment though, just while he's there).

"Kagome….I-" He was cute short. "Hey! Excuse me miss!" Jack and the officer were waiting impatiently for her. 'Oh yeah…' she looked up at the somewhat sad Inuyasha. 'Why is he sad?' this was confusing her. "Inuyasha," she smiled and his ears perked up. "Why are you here?" she repeated. "I……I…..can't." he glanced at her, begging her to understand. She didn't, but nodded. "Alright Inuyasha, but I trust you to tell me later on got it?" she said, quirking up an eyebrow. Inuyasha was surprised by this. Why is she so understand? She'd usually just 'sit' and thus would start another one of their stupid arguments. But not today, and he was glad for it. He nodded, agreeably.

She smiled and took his hands, leading him to the street corner, so they could cross. "In the mean time, you are staying with me!" she laughed. Sure, she was acting a bit too happy from the way she usually was, but hey! Inuyasha is back, and she knew he wasn't going to be there forever, so she was going to savor the moment. Inuyasha smiled as she led them to the corner, and they started to cross, him being a bit hesitant at first. "It's okay! You'll be fine." Kagome reassured, noticing his distress. Once they were across, Kagome turned to him, "Inuyasha, I'm really happy you're here, and she gave him a quick hug. " I'll be right back, okay?" she didn't want to, but it was her stupid habit of daydreaming that got her into this accident and she couldn't just ignore. Stupid, no more skipping breakfast then driving for her!

She ran over to the two men that were waiting for her and smiled. "Sorry." Jack only smiled back. "Miss, I'm going to have to ask you to not go running off in the middle of an accident here, I am a very busy man and I have no time for you to just leave like that. Now…." The policeman scolded and looked down at his chart. Kagome nodded and lowered a little, but in anger. She didn't care much though, nothing could bring her down, not now at least. Jack noticed her distress and placed a hand on her shoulder, smiling. She smiled faintly back, and began filling out the information that the policeman needed.

Inuyasha stood frozen for a second. Did she just run off? Again? Argh! He watched her run off to the two men, and he pushed his anger aside for now. Leaning back against a brick building, he glanced across the street, noticing his forgotten duffle bag. "Damnit" he muttered. What was taking her so long? He was about to just leap over and get it (which he isn't supposed to do!) when he froze. Kagome was talking to some guy, and Inuyasha could tell that he liked her. When Kagome and Inuyasha embraced earlier, he didn't catch the scent of another man on her, so he assumed that she was still single. He growled at the back of his throat and marched over.

Kagome and Jack were just finishing up the last of information, and such, when Inuyasha marched over, placing a hand on Kagome's other shoulder. "Excuse, but, who are you?" he huffed. Kagome's heart flew, was he still jealous like he used to be! Maybe he was here to get her back! But, not many theories seemed to support that logic. He used to always be jealous when she was around other guys, and he still chose Kikyou. She was still glad that he hadn't changed, though. But her thoughts were stopped when she heard Inuyasha growl. Jack quickly pulled the hand that was on Kagome's other shoulder away. Inuyasha bared his fangs at him a bit, and Jack gasped. Were those fangs he saw! He must be hallucinating! (haha just like Kagome! Jk)

The policeman just went through his papers quietly, ignoring the two. Jack backed away and Inuyasha was still trying to scare him off. Then, Kagome, placed her hand on Inuyasha's shoulder, "Inuyasha, calm down." She said. Inuyasha instantly stopped growling and Kagome smiled sadly at him. She turned to Jack, "I'm sorry, Jack, but I really need to get going. It was nice meeting you." Jack just nodded. She walked up to the policeman and got the information she needed. Her car wasn't that bad, and still be driven, it was pretty much just Jack's car that got the beating (serves him right for touching Inuyasha's Kagome! Lol;) Kagome apologized for the damage on the car, and he did also, though Kagome didn't really need much of a fix up for her car.

Kagome turned to Inuyasha while they both stood by the car, "Inuyasha, are you…..are you planning on staying here?" her voice was small, but hopeful. Inuyasha looked down at her, "Only if…..you want me to." He said. She smiled lightly, "But do you?" Inuyasha tried to swallow some of his pride and nodded lightly. She smiled and took his hands, "Let's go."

Inuyasha took one more glance at Jack as Kagome dragged him to the car. She gently pushed him into the car and he stopped her when she was about to close the door. "Sota, he packed a bag, it's across the street and I-" "No problem. Be right back." Kagome walked to the edge of the street and started to cross when the street was clear enough, Inuyasha bit his lip the whole time, worriedly. She grabbed it and quickly returned to the car, throwing his bag into the back seat.

"Feh! I could've gotten that you know, you didn't have to do that!" he said. "No, Inuyasha. While you're here, you can't just go leaping around, people will get ideas. And I don't really think you could've crossed the street that quickly either." She giggled. He blushed, "you're making fun of me aren't you!" he asked, angrily. "Yes, yes I am." She laughed and began driving back to her place.

The car was silent for a moment. Inuyasha decided to break it, he was packed full of questions, and he needed to ask them. "Kagome, are you sure it's okay for me to be here. I know it's been almost….three years." He said. "Four," Corrected Kagome. "Huh?" "It's been four years." Inuyasha instantly felt bad. He thought he had counted right, but time must fly by when you're in pain. "Oh….yeah." his ears drooped. "It's okay." She smiled lightly.

The car was silent once again, as Inuyasha thought, 'She remembers, she must still care, but, it's still too soon. Kagome….all this time, you cared that much, all this time, wasted. Damn that stupid well, why wouldn't it let me through before?' He turned to Kagome, opening his mouth to say something, but quickly shut it. Kagome turned to him, "Were you going to say something?" she asked plainly. Inuyasha shook his head, "No, it was nothing." "Go ahead, Inuyasha, tell me." She prodded. Inuyasha took in a deep breath, and began to speak, "I….I was going to ask, about the day…..that you…..ummm….left." his expression saddened, as he finished. He hated to remember that day, the day his whole life fell apart.

"W-what about it?" she asked quietly, tear threatening to rack her fragile body. Inuyasha didn't know what to say, he just couldn't get himself to speak, it was too hard. So, instead, he choked out, "I-I'm sorry, Kagome. I-"he trailed off. Kagome pulled up against a curb next to her apartment. She turned to him and whispered, "Inuyasha, It's alright, it was…a long time ago. Just, try and enjoy your stay here, okay?" she giggled at the last part. Inuyasha smiled lightly, blushing a bit for some reason.

Kagome smiled at him one last time before stepping out of her car, Inuyasha broke from his wondering mind/trance and did the same. Surprisingly, well, not really surprising at all, Inuyasha yelped in surprise as another car nearly ran him over. Kagome looked up and laughed when she saw his face. "You know, cars either have a liking to you, or you're just too dense to look before you step into the street. That's what…the second time today?"

Inuyasha's breathing slowed down and he slammed the car door shut, walking over to the other side of the car angrily. He looked away and shrugged, "Uhhh, third time." Kagome burst out laughing, "Haha! You haven't changed a bit Inuyasha." She said, reaching up and gently stroking his ears for the first time in 4 years, and it felt so good to do it again. She sighed.

Inuyasha jumped slightly, but leaned into her touch, he missed her caressing his ears, he had to admit it. He noticed that he was starting to get the urge to purr, but he held it back and leaned away from her touch. He quirked an eyebrow at her, his arms folded, "And neither have you, wench." He laughed a little. Then, she raised an eyebrow at him, "Wench? Since when do you call me that?" She placed her hands on her hips. "Since I feel like it, that's when." He spat. She rolled her eyes, "Yeah, yeah, yeah dog-boy. Now, are you done calling me names so you can help me carry your things?" she asked. He chuckled and lifted his bag, shutting the car door behind him.

"Alright, we're all set, let's get to gettin' shall we?" Kagome smiled.

"Huh?"

"Nothing. Let's just go."

They headed for the brick building a few steps from then and began climbing the stairs when they got inside. About two floors up, Kagome motioned for them both to stop and got out her keys. They stepped inside while she said, "Here we are! It's kind of crowded, and it has only one bedroom (her and matsu share a bedroom, but w/ their own beds ok;), but I think I have an extra futon." Inuyasha stepped inside as Kagome shut the door behind them both.

Inuyasha's mouth dropped. The room he was currently standing in, it was beautiful. The bright red walls of the living room were covered in posters and artwork. Photographs too. The room was pretty messy, but he could still the floor, most of it anyway. But he didn't notice, he was still standing, amazed at how a few pictures could accentuate a room so nicely.

"Sorry for the mess. Matsu and I have been really busy lately." Kagome apologized. Inuyasha turned slightly towards her, "Matsu?" he asked. "Yeah, Matsu is my room mate, we met shortly before graduation. We became good friends and decided to get a place her together, she's really nice." Inuyasha walked up to a painting that was hanging a little crooked on the wall. He straitened it out and said, "Did you do these?" Kagome smiled, "Yeah, pretty much all of them. Matsu did a few too, but mostly just photographs." She said. Inuyasha trailed his fingertips lightly over one painting, "They're….really nice, Kagome." He said dazily. Kagome blushed a little, "Uhh, thanks, ummmm, so, you hungry?"
