Chapter 11

Abandoned

Foxgem: Well hey guys.. Thanks for reviewing and understanding. Love ya all!

BIG ANNOUNCEMENT! Okay as you have noticed everything is out of whack so I, after 10 days after I post this story, I will be deleting the story and re-starting it with all the grammar problems taken out of it and stuff. So yeah that is what is going to be going on. I am sick of going back the next day and finding errors that I had tried to look for. Maybe I need an editor…hmmm.

Chapter 11 A Doctors office, and a Fight!

"What is wrong with him? Is the doctor saying anything…what?" Kagome asked franticly. Kagome sped out of the parking lot.

"They won't tell me. OH Kagome! I am scared! Please hurry darling." Her Mother gripped the phone.

"I'm on the highway right now! Is he in any real danger?" Kagome asked driving like a madwoman.

"I don't know! They won't talk to anybody but you!" Her mother was getting frantic.

"Okay…I'm going to be there as fast as I can." Kagome said gripping the steering wheel. Kagome hung up the phone and began to dial Inuyasha's cell phone. But in the middle of it she canceled it. She was independent! Why should she call him? What could he possibly do? Turn the plane around? No. He was busy with work. She could handle this and she had to get control over herself! Her emotions were not going to solve anything! She had to get a cool head.

Later

Kagome brushed past a nurse as she saw Shippo, Kara, Grandpa, and her Mother all sitting in chairs.

"Is he all right? Is everything okay?" Kagome asked breathlessly.

"The doctor says that Nathan is now stable and better, but they want to take some X-rays to make sure everything is all right." Her grandfather said in a grave voice staring at the floor.

"Oh…where is the doctor?" Kagome asked.

"Right behind you."

Kagome whirled around to see a man in his early thirties smiling at her.

"Hi. I am Gurish. You are Nathan's mother right?"

"Yes I am. How is he?" Kagome asked gripping her purse.

"Will you walk over here with me?" Gurish asked motioning her to fallow.

Kagome fell in to step with him. "Sure."

"Is he your son by birth?" Gurish asked looking sideways at her.

Kagome sucked air in fast before answering carefully. "No…he is my ex-husbands child."

Gurish nodded. "Well…I'm not going to lie. We do not have a clue to what is wrong. We thought it might be something he ate but when took blood samples…something is not right with the chemical balance in his blood. I would go into a more scientific explanation but I fear that wouldn't help you understand. In lemans terms we need to somehow level out the chemicals in his blood before a bigger problem arises. I am going to write you a prescription and I want him to take this twice a day and with his meals. For now…the best thing is for him to do nothing that will have his heart beat at a fast pace." Gurish said while writing on his piece of paper.

Kagome touched his arm, "Why did you ask if he was mine? What has that got to do with anything?"

Gurish looked at her. Boy was she gorgeous. What he wouldn't give for a night on the town with a doll like this! Gurish cleared his throat before answering, "We thought that maybe by taking a blood sample from you we would be able to figure what this is from. To me it looks like a water-downed virus. What I mean by that is one of the Parents had the full virus when Nathan was conceived so it was carried onto him. Is that making sense?"

"Yes. Hmm…I don't know. If it means anything…Nathan's mother died because of something like this. You might want to look it up on her records."

"What was her name?"

"Erin…Erin Magin."

Some time later…

Kagome creaked open the door and pocked her head around.

"Hey Mommy." Nathan's quiet voice seemed to echo.

"Hey sweet heart! How are you feeling?" Kagome asked sitting down next to his bed. Absent-minded she touched her freshly slapped face but quickly put her hand down. She must forget about it!

Nathan played with his covers nervously. "Why did it take you so long?"

"What? Baby…did you think I didn't want to be here? I had just dropped Inu- Daddy off at the airport when Grandma called. How are you feeling?" Kagome said taking his cold little hand in hers.

Nathan looked up at her. "I want to go now… please?" With that Nathan's eyes began to water and little tears began streaking down his face.

Kagome pulled him to her chest and patted his head as Nathan's small tiny arms squeezed back. "Shhh…It's all right, baby. We are going to go home right now."

"Excuse me." Came a dark voice behind her. Kagome turned to find Gurish looking at her funny. She had no idea why but he gave her the creeps.

"Yes?" Kagome asked wiping the tears off of her face.

"We were wondering if we could keep him here for a couple of days till we get this whole thing figured out." Gurish said folding his arms.

Nathan whimpered and tightened his grip on her. Kagome patted his back while keeping eye contact with Dr. Gurish. "No. He is coming home with me. You have enough blood already. My baby wants to go and he will go home. We will not be back until my husband comes back from his business meeting. Thank you." Then without another word to Dr. Gurish Kagome turned around and began to get Nathan dressed. "It's alright, baby. We are going home."

"Please! I must insist! This could prove to be fatal for the little lad." Dr. Gurish said laying a hand on her arm.

Kagome shook it off. "There is NOTHING wrong with my baby…DO YOU UNDERSTAND? He wants to go and I AM taking him home!" Kagome scooped Nathan into her arms and grabbed her purse.

"Please reconsider."

"No. If you want to take this up with my husband you are more than welcome to." Kagome said making sure she had the prescription in her purse.

"I'm sorry but I do not have a number-" Dr. Gurish said fallowing.

"Here!" Kagome said taking out her wallet and throwing him Inuyasha's office card at him.

Dr. Gurish fumbled the card before catching it. When he saw the name…his mouth felt like it would hit the ground.

KARA P.O.V

My eyes widened at the sight of Mommy marching toward us as if she had had a fight with the devil and won. "Shippo? Kara? We are leaving!" Mommy almost yelled.

"Kagome! What happened? What was wrong?" Grand pop stood to stop Mommy but Mommy brushed him off.

Mommy put a hand through her hair. "THEY DON'T BLOODY KNOW! Kara! Shippo! Take each other's hand and grab onto mine." Mommy looked like she was about to cry. I knew to do exactly what she said when she got like this. I quickly slid off my seat and grabbed Shippo's hand and then Shippo grabbed my mother's.

"Then maybe he should stay here till they know." Grandma said trying to block Mommy's path. Don't they know that you can't stop her from doing anything yet? Geeze! I am 5 years old and I know that!

Mommy pushed her away. "I am not leaving my son in here alone and afraid!"

"See? You need to learn your place and Inuyasha has got you mixed up! I told you he was no good! You are not in your right mind! He HAS to stay!" Grandmother stomped her foot and began to pull at Nathan. OH NO!

"NO! You touch us again and I swear you will regret it!" Mommy said with her voice raising a notch.

Grandma…bristled and slammed her hand against Mommies cheek. Then Grandma seriously began pulling on a crying Nathan.

I swear I could see blood. She was trying to take Nathan away from us and she hit Mommy. OH NO!

Before I could act Shippo was there pulling Grandma's coat backwards. But there really was no need for us to interfere. For as soon as Grandma tried taking Nathan away, Mommy turned around and slammed her fist in her face. Grandma went sprawling onto the floor.

"WE ARE GOING HOME!" Mommy shifted Nathan and grabbed Shippo's hand, which I latched onto quickly.

As we were walking away Grandma shouted "HE ISN'T YOURS! HE DOESN'T BELONG TO YOU! HE IS NOT YOUR CHILD! HE BELONGS TO ERIN!"

I could feel my mother shake. I looked up to find anger when instead…I find tears. What did Grandma mean? Mommy belonged to Nathan and me. Oh and I guess someday Shippo too…but…what did she mean? And why was Mommy crying so hard.

Shippo somehow knew what I was feeling and gave me a reassuring squeeze. I returned it and smiled a tiny smile. Maybe we could be friends. Maybe I could share Mommy with him…maybe.

I frowned as I looked down at my shoe. You know people think we don't know what is going on but in reality we do. I know that before my Mommy met Inuyasha that she was a mess. Sure Nathan and I did all we could so that she could be happy. But somehow we weren't enough. She was always sad and got real quiet when we asked out about our fathers. We learned really early not to bring up our Fathers. What was the point if it only brought Mommy unhappiness?

Then Inuyasha appeared. No warning…nothing. Just when Nathan and I were giving up hope, Inuyasha popped out of nowhere. As soon as Inuyasha walked in the door…my Mommy's sprit was lifted. He made Mommy laugh and sing again. He made her eyes shine bright. I'm not sure what it all means…but I know that he is good for her.

As soon as the elevator opened Mommy rushed us to the car. I tried being really good and quiet. I didn't even fight when She put me in my car seat. But those tears still seemed to fall. Nathan sat in his car seat looking out the window. He wouldn't even look at me even when I touched his arm. What was going on? What was wrong? I don't like this feeling! Would someone PLEASE talk to me?

I felt a hand touch my arm. I turned and saw Shippo looking up at me (I am sitting in my car seat but Shippo is too big and old to sit in one). He smiled reassuringly and nodded as if he knew what I was feeling. Tonight we (the kids) were in need of a meeting. This had to be figured out!

Kagome P.O.V.

HOW DARE SHE! First she calls her and makes her believe that Nathan is dying. Then after she got done talking to the Doctor, Her mother decides it is time to talk about Inuyasha and her! HOW DARE SHE? Kagome pressed harder on the gas pedal as she felt her mothers words run through her.

Flash back

Kagome slowly made her way to Nathan's room. Suddenly she felt a hand on her arm. Turning around Kagome found her mother looking at her.
"Look…I know this maybe not the place to tell you this…nor that this is the right time…but I have to get this off my chest. I know you want to go in to see…your son…but this can wait no longer. What is going on between you and that half-demon" When her mother had said half demon she said it like it was a curse word.

"Mom…can we talk about this later." Kagome said brushing her mother off.

Her mother only grabbed her tighter. "NOW. I know that you have been hurting ever since…your divorce. I do realize that you are on the rebound trying to fill Hojo's place in your heart. Do you really think that that…half demon can ever come close to what Hojo is?"

Kagome's eyes flashed. "Hojo is a scum bag! You are Dan right Inuyasha is nowhere near Hojo's level! Hojo is lower than dirt while Inuyasha is a god!"

"How dare you? Hojo is a wonderful man!"

"Have you forgotten what he did to me? To Kara? Have you forgotten that he ran out and cheated on me? Have you forgotten everything?" Kagome roared.

"Do NOT get that tone of voice with me! It was your fault! It is always the women's fault! Always! Hojo didn't do anything to you! You did it to yourself! Hojo has done no wrong when it comes to Kara. You're the reason why she doesn't have a Daddy!"

Kagome took a step back. "How…can you say that to me? Your own Daughter? HOW CAN YOU TELL ME IT IS MY FAULT? Do you care nothing for me?"

Kagome watched her mother calmly pick non-existing hair off of her sleeve. "It is time that you were taught on where your place is in life. I forbid you to see Inuyasha again. I FORBID it. You will not speak to him again. When he comes back you politely hand that…pup of his to him and boot him out."

Kagome began to shake her head in defiance. "No. No. It is time for YOU to understand where YOUR place is in life! I no longer need you. You cannot and will not control my life. I love Inuyasha and we are getting married. I don't care what you have to say and I am NOT interested. As soon as Inuyasha gets back…it's over. Good-bye. See yo-" Kagome was stopped short when her mother's hand slammed into her face.

"You will NOT speak to me like that!" Kagome's mother shook from anger. "You are not thinking clearly-"

"No I am thinking just fine! Do NOT hit me again unless you want to get hit back! I am going to see MY SON."

End Flashback

Kagome could feel hot tears flow across her cheeks. How could she? One moment her mother was an angle who would do anything for her and then the next…she could be worse than the devil. How could her mother think that Hojo…was…perfect?

Kagome turned on her cell phone and called Inuyasha's phone number. Of course she got his answering machine.

"Hey baby! It's me, Kagome. Look…something really important came up and I need you to call as soon as you can. I love you!" Kagome said with a half smile.

Hanging up she looked back at her kids. Nathan looked pale as he looked out the window. Kagome felt her heart tug as she looked at him. Poor thing. Shippo and Kara on the other hand were actually…HOLDING HANDS! Well…at least SOMETHING good came out of this.

Snuggling down into the sheets Rin yawned and stretched. It was time to get a move on. She couldn't be late for work. Sitting up in bed she stretched. Then…AAHH! Why was she totally unclothed? WHAT? Rin brushed her hand through her hair and something on her hand snagged at her hair. When Rin got it loose. Rin saw a ring on her finger. What? When did I…OH! She must have really gotten drunk if she couldn't remember her wedding night!

Rin quickly looked over expecting to see Sess but instead she found an empty bed. Rin stood up and threw on a bathrobe.

"Sess?" Rin called as she tied up her hair. Where could he be? Rin walked to the door and opened it. OH MY!

As soon as Rin opened the door and saw what was in their "living room" she turned bright red. Rin and Sess' clothes were stung about EVERYWHERE! Rin immediately began to pick it up when She felt Sess's arms go around her tight.

"Hey gorgeous." His voice was rough and ragged.

"Where were you?" Rin demanded as she turned around in his arms.

"In the shower. Can't you tell?" Sess laughed huskily as he began to kiss her neck.

Only then did Rin realize that he was bare-chested and the only thing that kept him form being completely naked was the fact that he had a towel around his waist. His wet hair clung to his face.

"What? You took a shower without me?" Rin pretended to pout.

"I didn't want to wake you. We…had a pretty long night last night. I felt like I should have let you rest."

Rin snuggled into his chest. "As sweet as it is…I would appreciate it if you did wake me up. I missed you by my side."

"You did? But how…I mean…we practically did it all night."

Rin rolled her eyes. "Do you think I could get enough of you? Am I so weak that I can't handle you? Or-" Rin was cut off by Sess' kiss.

When he broke away Rin had to take two minutes to get her breath back.

"So…would you mind if…you know…do you think you…you know…" Rin averted her eyes to his chest.

Sess smiled. "I think I could do another shower. Would you like to join me, love?"

"I wouldn't mind at all, husband."

2222

Inuyasha yawned as the airplane landed. That had to be the best dream he ever had. In it he had been the one to win Kagome's heart way back in college. He was the one who got her pregnant 3 times. He was the father off all the kids. Kagome was happy with no scars. With no memories. Inuyasha sighed as he stood up with the rest of the passengers and got off the plane. As soon as he was out of the terminal he was "attacked" by Kouga.
"Thank you for coming! I know what sacrifice it must have cost you and-"

Inuyasha just let the man drag him as he thought…you have no idea what it cost me. I am about to marry the girl of my dreams and I left her to deal with a monster. You have NO idea. But he did have to give the man credit. Kouga loved his wife and wanted to make it all better. Inuyasha was sure that if it was Kagome in that situation that He would be freaking out, too.

When they got in the car Inuyasha checked his phone messages. As soon as he saw one from Kagome he smiled. But when he clicked on it to hear it…she sounded scared and panicky. "Kouga…keep driving I have to call…my wife." Inuyasha speed dialed her phone number and it rang three times before someone answered.

"Hewo?" Came a tiny voice.

"Who is this? Is this Kara?" Inuyasha asked sitting up straight. Kagome would never let Kara answer the phone.

"Yep. Who is this?" Kara's voice was bright and happy.

"This is Inuyasha, darling! Is Mommy there?" Inuyasha asked worried.

"Yea. She is in Nathan's room right now. We just got back from the…host..pit..al.." Kara struggled to get the words out right.

"What, Kara, do you mean the hospital? What happened?"

"Oh…Nathan got really sick. He began to puke blood up. It was really gross. Where are you?"

Inuyasha smiled sadly. 'Too far away, baby' Inuyasha thought but instead he said. "I am on a business trip. I will be back really soon, I promise."

"Good. Mommy is starting to scare me. Her and Grandma hit each other." Kara said wanting to fill him in.

"WHAT? Kara…what do you mean your Mom and Grandma hit each other? Do you mean a hitting fight? OR playfully slapping?" Inuyasha gripped the phone.

Kara sat on the couch twirling the cord. " I don't think it was playful. Grandma ended up on the floor from Mommy. Plus I don't think Mommy's tears were fake either. Oh…here she is!"

"Kara wait! Talk to me!" Inuyasha said trying to get Kara back. But Kara already handed the phone to Kagome.

"Hello, handsome! So I see you got my message." Kagome said smiling.

"Well yeah. Now what is going on? Did you and your mother get in a fist fight?" Inuyasha demanded.

"Sort…of."

"What over?"

"…I'd rather not talk about it."

"KAGOME! I have to know why!" Inuyasha slammed a fist on the dashboard.

"HEY! WATCH OUT!" Kouga yelled at him. Inuyasha winced in apology.

"Okay…hold on…let me go into our room." Kagome said, as she made sure the kids were watching the TV before dashing to their room.

Inuyasha loved how she referred to her room as theirs. But this was a more important matter now.

"Okay…she wanted to know what was going on between us. I said later, but she wanted to talk about it then. She said that you…were bad for me and junk like that…and then she told me that it was my fault that I let a wonderful thing…like Hojo…out of my grasp. She said that I needed to learn my place in the household and whatever that went wrong that it was always the woman's fault. Like it was my fault that Hojo ran off and left me. So…I told, or rather yelled, at her to shut up…she hit me…and to make a long story short…I told her not to hit me again…she did and I punched her."

"Kagome…oh I am so sorry. I didn't mean to come between you-" Was all Inuyasha got out before…

"INUYASHA! You will NOT be sorry! She deserved every bit that she got! I am glad that it finally happened. If anything…I love you more for it. It made me realize a lot of things. I will tell you those later. Anyway…that is not what I wanted to talk about. Nathan…as you heard went into the hospital. They don't know what is wrong with him. They wanted to keep him over night but I wouldn't let them. Nathan was so scared. He wanted to leave so badly and I gave in and I brought him home. You should be getting a call from the hospital sometime soon asking permission if they could keep Nathan there for more testing. Please tell them no and that the mother will not allow for her son out of her sight."

"Okay…I will do that. Kagome…I feel like there is something else. Is that ALL you had to tell me?" Inuyasha asked leaning back in his seat.

Kagome looked down at the comforter of the bed. She did NOT want Hojo anywhere near her babies. Kagome said sighing, "Hojo also called right when we came home. Inuyasha…he is coming in three days. THREE. Oh, Inu-chan. Just thinking of what it will be like without you there is so horrible I can barley bare it."

"Then don't think about it, because I will be there Kagome. I will be there. I love you and we will get through this, together. I love you and I am not going to let anything happen to you, okay?" Inuyasha smiled at the sound of his nickname.

"Did I ever mention that I loved you?" Kagome asked smiling.

"Not nearly enough. Okay, honey, I got to go. We just pulled into the hospital. I'll call you when I get back to the house, okay?"

"I love you and be safe."

"I love you too. Talk to you later." Inuyasha replied hanging up the phone.

"So… that was your wife, huh? Since when did you get married to your third wife and why didn't you invite us to the wedding?" Kouga smiled as he turned off the car.

"Well…life, I guess, just happened."

Foxgem: Hey! I know it was a real slow chapter but hey…what can I say. Hojo…NEXT CHAPTER!
