Inuyasha and Miroku finally got to Kagome's house. Miroku was panting as Inuyasha stared at the old, brown car in the driveway confused. He had never seen that car there before. Inuyasha turned to Miroku who was still panting.

"I'm tired, let's go back and flirt with those girls." Miroku grinned. Inuyasha sighed.

"I bet Dr. Higurashi has a patient or company or something so I guess we can go back to my house." Inuyasha said getting on his skateboard. They went off in the direction of Inuyasha's house.

"That was a stupid waste of time, Yash. You know that?" Miroku said in an annoyed yet happy way.

The man sat at the table with Dr. Higurashi and her children. Dr. Higurashi just stared at him. Kagome exchanged glances from her so called Father to her Mother. Sota just sat there looking at his Father.

"Please say something, darling." He said with enthusiasm.

"Don't call me that…" She said in almost a whisper. She began to speak louder and fiercer. "You leave us for more than ten years and then out of nowhere you decide to come back!"

The man sighed. "I…I wanted to come back, but…" He paused.

"But what!" Dr. Higurashi said angrier than she has ever been. She turned to her children. "Sota, Kagome, could you give me a minute with this man?" She asked not taking her eyes off the man. His hair was short and black. He looked to be in his forties. He wore tan pants and a dress shirt. He looked like he just got off work.

Kagome sat in her room. She couldn't hear what they were saying, but she could hear the rising of her Mother's voice. She couldn't believe that she saw her Father for the first time today.

'Mom never really spoke of him that much. Was she ashamed? Why? He doesn't seem like a bad man at all.' Kagome thought to herself. Suddenly, her cell phone rang from over on her desk. She grabbed it and picked it up to her ear.

"Hello?" Kagome asked.

"Hey, I'm in your driveway. Ready to got to the mall?" Sango asked.

"Why didn't you just come to the door?" Kagome asked curious.

"I was lazy, not let's go." She said. Kagome smiled and walked quietly out of her room to the dining room. "I'm going to the mall with Sango, okay?" She asked looking at her Mom and that man. She couldn't stand listening to the yelling anymore. She nodded and Kagome was out the door. Even though Kagome was grounded, her mom let her go .She didn't want Kagome to be there when they yelled.

It soon turned to evening, and Miroku went home. Inuyasha skated to his house and he saw Sesshomaru's BMW in the driveway. He sighed. 'I forgot about dinner.' He mentally spoke. He walked up the steps of his house with his skateboard in his hands. He walked in and saw Rin, Sesshomaru, and his Mom sitting in the living room drinking coffee.

"Hi sweetie." His Mom said with a smile putting her coffee mug down. "What did you and Miroku do today?"

"Nothing." Inuyasha replied blankly putting his skateboard down.

"Rin and Mom tell me that you have a girlfriend." Sesshomaru said. "What's her name?"

"Kagome." He said with a little bit of a blush on his face. His brother grinned. Inuyasha scratched his head in embarrassment as Rin giggled. Inuyasha smiled and headed to his room.

"Dinner will be ready soon, okay?" His mother said. Inuyasha nodded and walked into his room. He plopped on his bed and sighed. Speaking of Kagome, he couldn't get her out of his head. She was so pretty, smart, and very creative. Her skin was fair and her raven hair was beautifully curly. He thought about her for the longest time. There was a knock at the door. His Mom came in. "Time for dinner." She said with a smile. He nodded and got up.

That night was awkward to Inuyasha, his brother and Rin would not stop talking about the baby. Inuyasha's dad was out of town and was never brought into the conversation. Inuyasha picked at his food as Rin laughed at something that Sesshomaru said.

"Oh honey, you're so funny!" Rin said playfully slapping his arm. Sesshomaru smiled at her. Inuyasha rolled his eyes. Inuyasha excused himself from the table when he was done and went to his room. He grabbed his cell phone and pressed Kagome's number. It rang.

"Hello?" Kagome asked picking up her cell phone to her ear.

"Hey cutie…" Inuyasha said with a blush. Kagome blushed as well.

"Oh hey Inuyasha, so how was your weekend?" She asked in a cute way.

"It was pretty good…" Inuyasha said. "How about you?"

Kagome sighed. "Crazy."

"What happened?" Inuyasha asked concerned.

"Well, my fa…father came after being gone for more than ten years."

"Really?" Inuyasha said.

"Yeah, he's gone now and I don't know what happened…I don't have the guts to ask my mom…she's really upset…I can tell,"

"How are you dealing with it?" Inuyasha asked with a interested voice. Kagome smiled.

"I like how much you're into this conversation. You seems like that you actually care about what happens to me," Kagome giggled

"Of course I care!" Inuyasha smiled. "I always care about what happens to you,"

Kagome blushed. "Well, I'm just really confused…that's all,"

"Oh, well, I passed by our house and I saw a car and I didn't want to bother you. I wanted you to meet my friend Miroku," Inuyasha laughed. "I do warn you, when it comes to pretty girls, he can be a little flirty." Kagome laughed.

"Well, sorry. I have to go. I'll see you at school tomorrow, okay?" Kagome was about to hang up the phone.

"Wait, I was wondering if you'd like a ride to school with me." Inuyasha sound so cute asking if she'd like a lift to school.

"Umm…sure," Kagome said with a smile.

"Great! I'll pick you up at 7:15, okay?" Inuyasha said happily. Kagome said her good-byes and hung up the phone.

It was getting pretty late. Kagome took a quick shower, dried her hair and went to bed.

"Inuyasha! You lied to me! You said I was the only girl for you!" A voice yelled in Inuyasha's head as he slept. Inuyasha turned from side to side mumbling "No…I didn't know…Kikyo…I'm sorry," Inuyasha sprung up drenched in sweat from head to toe. He was panting hard. "Not again," he mumbled to himself. He wiped the sweat from his brow. He got out of bed and took a shower. When he was done, he changed his sheets. He turned to the clock and noticed it was 6:00 in the morning. He yawned and went to the kitchen to get breakfast. The sky was a mix of pink, orange, and purple. It was beautiful. Inuyasha ate a pop tart and went to get changed.

Kagome woke up with a small yawn. She stretched and got out of bed. She went to got changed and put her hair in a pony. She walked into the kitchen and saw her mother making bacon and eggs. Dr. Higurashi looked up.

"Hi sweetie, sit down. I'm making breakfast," She said happily. Kagome nodded and took a seat at the table. Her mother put some bacon and eggs on a plate and walked over and gave it to Kagome.

"Thanks Mom," She said with a small smile.

Her mother sighed. "Kagome, that man yesterday was your father," Dr. Higurashi spoke. "I told him to leave, Kagome." Kagome stopped eating for a minute and looked up at her mom.

"I only got to talk to my dad once in my life," Kagome looked up. "What's so bad about my father?" Kagome asked sadly.

Her mother looked away. "You wouldn't understand," Kagome stared at her mother fiercely.

"Mom, tell me," Kagome said strongly. Her mother looked away. Tears rolled down her cheeks.

"I love your father, but…" Her mother paused. "He raped me,"

Kagome gasped. She was speechless. Her mother turned to her with red, puffy eyes. "I'm sorry you had to find out like this, sweetie, but I was still to scared of how you would react," Kagome's eyes were wide. Her mother just wanted to protect her. Tears rolled down Kagome's cheek as she through herself into her mother's arms.

"Oh Mom," Kagome whispered. Her mother stroked her hair.

Inuyasha came an hour later. Kagome was dressed and the tears had dried up. Kagome said good bye to her brother and mother. She hopped in the car with Inuyasha and they drove off to school. They got to school. Inuyasha parked in the parking lot. Kagome turned to him with a smiled. "Thanks for the ride…" She said with a small smiled. Inuyasha frowned.

"What's wrong?" He asked concerned leaning closer to her.

She sighed as she held back her tears. "Well, my mom finally told me why he left us. He raped my mom," She turned to Inuyasha who still had a concern look on his face. "He left because he was sick of my mom not agreeing to you know…you know,"

"Do it?" Inuyasha implored.

Kagome blushed. "Yeah, anyway, so not I'm glad I never met my father. IF he did that to my mom, he doesn't deserve to be my dad," Kagome paused. She looked away from Inuyasha for a moment until she felt someone's hand on her chin. Inuyasha turned her face by her chin and placed his lips on hers. Kagome jumped at first but then relaxed to the taste of his lips. Inuyasha opened his mouth and pushed his tongue against her tight lips. Finally, she gave in and he pushed his tongue in her mouth. He tasted her as she moaned with delight. Finally, there kissing stopped. Kagome pulled away panted and as did Inuyasha. They sat in the car looking at each other with swollen lips and heavy breathing. Inuyasha smiled and Kagome smiled back.

"Ready…to…go…to…class?" Inuyasha asked with a pant after each word. Kagome nodded and they stepped out of the car with their backpacks and headed inside the large building.
