AN: I'M SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING IN SUCH A LONG TIME...even though it was only five days. -.- I was going to type this Tuesday but someone I knew died and I forgot about this story that day and the next. I tried to put it up yesterday and Thursday but wasn't working for me! . I didn't put it up on Friday becuause it was the day of the funeral. I didn't even go to the funeral either. -.-; I really didn't know the guy very well but he was really nice. All those who did know him very well will mourn gravely...but I really don't like depressing moods so let's change the subject! I found out that I have a white teddy bear for real! I didn't even know I had one even though I do love plushies... -.-;;; Ah, well, er...um let's go back to the story now and I'll hold my teddy and watch. ;;;
Completely Pure
Chapter Five: What's A Boy And A Girl? A Day Ends In Peace
As soon Kagome asked her question, Inuyasha had backed away and went to help his father, not wanting to have to try to explain anything to her. It had taken awhile for Sango to explain to Kagome that you shouldn't knock Miroku unconscious and that really, you shouldn't hit anyone to say goodbye to them because it was rude and could very well be painful but should Miroku make her feel uncomfortable again, to just call her and that she would handle it. Now Kagome sat in the backseat of what she was told was called an automobile or in short, a car. There was a window to her left side and Sango on her right who was talking to Miroku, who was on her other side, and Inuyasha, who sat infront of Miroku. Inutaisho, who was "driving", sat infront of herself. She didn't pay attention though, she was to mesmerised by everything that she saw outside the window.
"Hey Kagome."
"..."
"Kagome?"
"..."
"Kagome."
"Eh?" Kagome blinked and turned to look at Inutaisho who was watching her through the rear view mirror.
"Interesting isn't it."
Nodding, Kagome shifted so she was facing forward but still kept her eyes looking outside the window. "It's so different out here..." she whispered loud enough for Inutaisho to hear. Sango and Miroku were still talking to each other beside her but Inuyasha had stopped to just listen to both conversations.
"You've got a lot to learn and to see Kagome. I'll be here to help and I'm sure everyone else will be willing to help you to." Inutaisho said while turning a corner.
Sighing, Kagome nodded once again and turned back to the window, soon falling asleep leaning her head on the window slightly.
Inuyasha quickly cast a glance at Kagome while Sango and Miroku still continued to talk non-stop while Inutaisho concentrated on driving. There was something about this girl that made him feel odd. He'd never felt this way before nor did he know what it could possibly mean. Soon, he just ended up watching her in the corner of his eye.
"Inuyasha...What do you find so interesting behind you?"
Inuyasha suddenly realized that he had turned his head a little to watch Kagome because she was behind him on a diagonal. He slowly turned his head so as to make it look he wasn't embarrassed to be caught watching Kagome and to make it look like he had been just watching his father drive.
"I wasn't looking behind me you perverted idiot. What made you think that I'd want to look at you? I was only watching my father."
A small grin appeared on Miroku's face. Inuyasha hadn't noticed that he and Sango had stopped talking for five minutes to just watch him and see what he was doing. They both knew he had been watching Kagome but they had also known that he wouldn't admit that he was either.
"Sure Inuyasha. I believe you like I always do."
"You barely ever do."
"Oh, you're right. I don't now do I."
"Bastard."
"I thought I was a pervert."
Inuyasha scowled,"Fine! You're a perverted bastard, happy?"
"Very much."
"Miroku, Inuyasha, stop arguing. You'll wake up Kagome." Sango said with a small sigh. Inuyasha scowled again and just stared out the windshield, watching the road like his father was, only, not because if he wasn't, they might all die. All that was heard for the rest of the ride was Miroku explaining why being a pervert was so much fun and so on and so on. When the car finally parked in front of the Landor hotel and Miroku opened the door beside him, he was immediately kicked by Sango making him sprawl out onto the pavement of the parking lot.
"Hey, that hurt..." Miroku said trying to stand up while rubbing his behind where he had been kicked at the same time as giving Sango a hurt look. Unfortunately, Sango wasn't watching.
"Oh sorry Miroku, I forgot you were there." she said sarcastically before turning to wake Kagome up.
Inuyasha got out of the car after Inutaisho. He then walked by Miroku, heading towards the hotel, and hit him in the head as he passed. "You deserved it." he said over his shoulder as he walked up to the front door of the hotel to wait for them before entering.
After Inutaisho had checked if he had any messages at the counter and after they had stopped Kagome from nearly breaking an expensive vase in the lobby because she was trying to examine it, the had made it up to the top level of the hotel where everyone else was waiting outside the door to an apartment.
Inutaisho unlocked the door and everyone entered and took a place to sit. Kagome, not really knowing what she should do, went and leaned against a wall and watched as the group began talking about what had happened back at the building she had been in. She began to examine everyone a bit until she found one question that she just couldn't figure out and just had to have an answer to. Stepping away from the wall, she blinked before she started talking.
"Um...sorry to interrupt but I have a small question to ask."
Everyone became silent and looked at her.
"Well, um...you all know that I've never seen another human before and um...well...I was watching you all and there's something that I don't understand." Looking around, she saw Miroku and faintly smiled. "Miroku, can I use you for an example?"
"Whatever you say, milady." he said standing up.
"Thanks. Can you stand over there?" she pointed to a spot beside her that was thankfully over an arm's length away.
"Sure."
When Miroku finally was in the spot and was facing everyone, Kagome continued talking.
"Okay, now look at Miroku, then look at me. There's a difference right?"
Everyone did what they were told but ended up just all looking a little confused.
Sighing, Kagome reworded her question in hope that they would understand what she meant.
"I seem to have something up here," she said pointing to her chest, "And he doesn't." she said pointing to Miroku's chest.
"Now my question is, why do I have these while he doesn't?"
Everyone seemed to stare at her oddly.
"Uh...didn't they teach you health?" Sango said from where she sat.
"Health?" Kagome looked at Sango questioningly. "Do you mean like eating healthy food and working out to stay fit?"
"Not...exactly..."
"She means don't you know what a boy or a male is?"Shippou said.
"A boy? A male? What do you mean?"
"Do you even know you're a girl?"
"I'm a girl? What's a girl? Is that why we're different? Is it because I'm a girl and he's a boy?"
"There are many more differences between the two of us Kagome." Miroku said taking a step closer to Kagome.
"Really? Like what? Can you tell me?"
"Of course. Well I also have what we call a -" before Miroku could continue, Sango was up and standing beside him and stuffing tissue into his mouth.
"Hehehe...why don't I explain it to you over there Kagome." Sango said smiling strangely.
"Umm...okay..." Kagome said while watching as Miroku coughed up the tissue out of his mouth.
"Great! Come on!" Sango grabbed Kagome's hand and dragged her to the other side of the room to try to explain what the differences between boy and girls were. Unfortunately, they didn't get to far. It was already dark outside when Sango finally gave up because some of the questions Kagome asked, Sango just couldn't get herself to answer.
"Kagome, Sango."
Sango and Kagome both turned towards Inutaisho as he walked up to them.
"Everyone has gone to sleep already. You both should to." smiling, Inutaisho directed his gaze to Kagome. "The rooms are slipt between boys and girls. Usually the girls sleep in one room and the boys sleep in the other but because you usually sleep by yourself, you can sleep in the extra room I have here. Tomorrow we'll be leaving to go to our usual homes and I wouldn't mind if you stayed with Inuyasha, Sesshoumaru and I. The only problem is that you will be the only girl in the house but Sango only lives down one block so you can visit each other if that's okay with you."
"Thank you Inutaisho. I'd be glad to stay at your house, whatever it is, and I'll help you with whatever you'd like because I'm in your debt for taking me out of the institute." Kagome said bowing slightly.
"This is great! Now I won't be completely surrounded by boys! Kagome, we are going to be awesome friends...including Ayame of course." Sango said happily before pausing for a moment. "Hey, Kagome, I just realized that you look like someone I know but I can't remember who...oh well, it doesn't matter. I probably don't know them that well if I can't remember them. Come on, I'll show you where the bathroom and your room for tonight will be. I've got an extra toothbrush and towel that you can have and you can borrow my hairbrush."
Kagome said goodnight to Inutaisho and followed Sango to the washroom where she was given the toothbrush and towel. From there, she brushed her teeth and went to the washroom, and then, once again, followed Sango but this time to the extra bedroom where she would be staying for the night. Saying goodnight to Sango, she closed the door, went over to sit on the bed and turned to look out the large window beside it.
'Things are changing so fast...' Kagome thought to herself as she stood back up, leaving the white bear, and went through a drawer to find something to wear that she could sleep in. Finding a robe, she slipped off the white dress she wore and put it on. While tying it to stay closed, she noticed a pile of books sitting on top of the drawer. She had a really good memory so when she had been taught how to read she could remember it very quickly, but she just didn't learn as much as she had hoped for when she started reading out of one of the books, she gotten confused for what seemed to be the thousandth time that day. She went through a few more books until she came to one that said "English Dictionary" on top. Once she started reading it, it had been even more confusing than the others but pretty soon she realized that this book told you what other words meant. 'At least I can learn a few things even thou I'm pretty sure I won't remember a lot of this in the morning' she thought happily as she walked back to the bed and sat down leaning her back against the backboard. She pulled the white bear to sit on her lap while she read the dictionary in the moonlight from the window until she had finished reading it very quickly, basically just skimming through it, and fell asleep. In her dream was sitting in the park that she had seen earlier but this time there was a river in front of her and she could feel herself laughing at something but she didn't know what had happened to make her laugh so hard. In her hands she held the white bear and she knew that there were other people around herself but she couldn't see them. All she knew was that she was happy, sitting and laughing for no reason beside a river with her bear and some other people. It felt wonderful as the wind blew her hair in her face making her laugh harder because she couldn't see and then some people sat down on either side of her, one laughing like she was while the other was silent. She couldn't help but smile. It was amazing seeing new things surrounding her and it was comforting to know other people were there to help her along the way.
'This,' she thought laying down to face the clouds, 'is something I never want to forget.' Unfortunately for her, when she would wake up a few hours later, she wouldn't remember her dream. Instead, she would continue learning with the help of her new friends.
End
AN: Yes, I know this chapter is really stupid. I just couldn't think of anything for this chapter. My friend wanted me to put something down during the scene where she doesn't know what a boy and a girl was but when I thought about it, it was to perverted for me to write. Anyways, I think this fic is going to turn into a lot more humour because I keep coming up with weird ideas in my mind. Oh, yeah, and don't think that the rest of the story is just going to be everyone helping Kagome to get used to life outside the institute even thou that does take up a lot of the story because the people in the institute aren't all dead and they'll be coming around soon, not for a while, but soon and they'll want to get Kagome back so they can restart the institute with her and some new children to. AH! I just gave away some of the plot of the story...oh well, you'd find out sooner or later right? Next chapter I hope will be better because I really didn't have that much motivation to write this one, nor ideas on what to make it good. Thanks to the people that reviewed. You're all so nice and kind and nice and happy and did I mention nice?
