I grin nervously, which she notices.
"What's wrong?"
I frown.
"Kagome do you really think that's a good idea? I don't think your Mother will like me much after she finds out I knocked you up at eighteen and in a drunken stupor to boot."
She sits beside me and leans her head on my shoulder.
"I don't know what your family is like, but I know for a fact my Mother will be upset but she won't hate you. She'll probably be scared for us but help us in the end. It's my Grandfather you should be worried about, he's very overprotective of me ever since my Father died, I guess he took my protection upon himself."
I scowl.
"Fantastic..."
A week later, after a long bus ride we arrive at the Higurashi shrine.
I carry our bags up the many flights of stairs leading to the house.
Once up, Kagome's Mother is there to greet us.
She hugs Kagome first then hugs me tightly.
"It is so nice to meet you InuYasha!"
I blush.
"It's nice to meet you to Mrs. Higurashi."
She turns back to Kagome with a wide smile.
"He is so handsome dear!"
Kagome beams with pride as her Mother turns to face me once again.
"I love your ears, they are to cute! Who was the demon your Father or your Mother?"
I try to hide my blush.
"Uh my Father is an Inu Youkai and my Mother was a human."
Her face drops a little.
"Your Mother was a human?"
I frown.
"Yeah she died when I was three from cancer."
I once again find myself being hugged by the elder Higurashi.
"I am so sorry for your loss, we to lost a loved one. Its such a hard thing to go through."
I hug her back awkwardly.
"It's alright it was along time ago but I'm sorry about your husband that must of been hard on you guys."
She pulls away and smiles at me.
"Yes death is always hard but it brought our family closer together, and for that I am grateful, they are both in a better place now."
I nod my head in agreement.
"Well let's get you two inside its cold out here and you still have yet to meet the rest of the family."
I plaster my best fake smile on and follow both girls inside.
