Kagome cleaned up the bathroom, wiping blood off of the sink and putting bandages away; George had done way more damage then she initially thought to his hand.
"I was thinking, would you like to come back with me to Japan? I think it would do us both some good to get away from everything." Kagome said.
George looked up from the tile he was staring at, arms crossed and brow furrowed as he leaned against the door jam. "Leave?"
Kagome nodded slowly brushing passed George and walking down the hall, "it's just for a few days, maybe a week or so. With everything going on… we could use the time away."
"We can't apparate across different countries, how would we get there? Train? Brooms?" George asked following her into the spare room.
"Something like that… is that a yes?" Kagome asked, her lips quirking up.
George nodded, "yeah, I think that would be brilliant. I would get to meet your mum."
A dark look crossed Kagome's face before being replaced with sadness, "yeah… I do need to see her."
"Hey, everything alright?" George asked.
Kagome's gaze remained fixed just above his shoulder as her mind wandered, her chest heavy and her stomach in knots at seeing her mother again.
"There's some stuff you need to know…"
George tilted his head, his brow furrowing.
Kagome patted the bed for him to sit next to her, "mom and I had a kind of falling out when I was 15 during the last summer I was home, the summer I arrived at Grimwauld Place."
"Is that all? I'm sure it'll be fine, with everything we've been through; don't you think it's important that you make up with her? Life's too short."
Kagome exhaled heavily tipping her head forward as she cradled her forehead in her hand. "I'm just not looking forward to it."
"Good thing I'm coming then, when would you like to leave? I can have someone come in and man the shop, or I could close it for a week." George mumbled.
"Well, you better decide, we're leaving early." Kagome smiled.
