This "……" means talking

This '……' means thinking or Inuyasha as half-demon(italic)

This '……' is Inuyasha's demon

And This '……' is Inuyasha's human side. (not italic)

To help I added D = demon, HD = half-demon and H = human.

Sorry its confusing.

Chapter 10

Inuyasha didn't leave Kagomes side for the next four days, miss H even had to bring his food up to Kagomes room on the second day or he just wouldn't eat, even if she made ramen. The only day Inuyasha left her side was when miss H bathed her and cleaned her sheets, but even then her refused to leave the shrine and had his ears on her at all times.

He new he should go back and explain things to Miroku and Sango he was certain she would have talked to them first, but he just couldn't there was no way he was leaving her like this.

Kagome woke from her sleep on the third day, as her strength returned to her she struggled to fully awake for her slumber and tho her head was pounding, she could feel something on her hand. Slowly she opened her eyes, blinking them to adjust to the light entering the room and one her eyes focused they landed on a familiar figure that she felt on her hand. Inuyasha's head was laying on her bed with him bottom on the floor and him hand in Kagomes.

'Haves he been here all nigh?' kagome thought as she couldn't help but feel a little flushed and content as she watched him sleep. 'Had he been worried about me' she thought smiling as she looked at his face, so soft and beautiful, but she couldn't quite remember what had happen last night that had cased him so much worry. 'I was going to see Inuyasha to tell him how I felt when…Kikyo' kagome thought as she began to become sad but was immediately reminded of Inuyasha's presence as he moved and tightened his hold on her hand. "Ka…go...me" he whispered softly, so low kagome only just heard him.

'He's dreaming of me' she thought as a red blush creped across her face one again.

Kagomes mother walked in and jumped for joy as her daughter sat up waving around her arm making shushing noises "ssshhh mum, please. Don't wake him up" she said indicating to the sleeping boy at her side.

"oh kagome, I don't think a herd of elephants could wake him" she answered smiling as she hugged her daughter.

"how longs he been out" she asked as her mother pulled away.

"I think he crashed at about eight last night. Good thing to, I was wondering when he would, he may be half demon but he needs his rest to." she said almost as if she were talking more to herself than kagome.

Kagome looked at her confused "but mum, I wasn't home last night, defiantly not at eight".

"Oh darling" she said as her smile faded away "You've been unconscious because of your head injury's".

"head injuries" she said as she reached to the back of her head to fund a small lump as her head started pounding again, 'That's right I hit my head falling through the well after Naraku threw me.' she thought smiling as she looked down to her sleeping angel 'Inuyasha must of smelt my blood and came after me… oh Inuyasha' she sighed to herself 'I'm so stupid'. A stray thought hit her as she remembered her talk with Naraku 'ha, so you were wrong Naraku, he did come.'.

"He's been at the shrine the hole time you were out," she said pulling kagome from her thoughts "I had to force him to get out of the house when I tried to bath you, I even had to bring him food up here or he wouldn't eat, he just refused to leave your side" she smiled a she watched her daughter gaze at her sleeping love.

"Inuyasha not eat" she said in disbelief with worry and love in her voice.

"He hasn't even slept until last night"

"How long was I out for." she asked more worried.

"Today would have been the fifth day"

"He hasn't slept in five days".

"He's been to worried about you, he probably never would have if I hadn't slip something into his ramen". she said drifting of again.

Kagome looked at her mother socked "No, tell me you didn't".

"Yep. But that was at dinner the other night and ot wasn't even taking affect she I gave him another at breakfast yesterday morning and two more at lunch so after dinner he was out like a light" she said proud of herself and her achievement in knocking Inuyasha out.

"You put it in every meal" she said worried even more.

"Yer, the doctor said it was fine case be id half demon so it takes more to affect him…"

"Wait… the doctor knows about Inuyasha… how… when…who…."

"It's fine… apparently his dad was an old friend of grandpas and he knows all about demons and apparently they themselves know some in this time, but then he mumbled some nonsense about sworn to secrecy" her mother said looking annoyed at the man for not telling her.

"Wow, I didn't know there were still demons alive in this time." she said looking back at Inuyasha.

"Yes but apparently they're all 'top secret' government stuff, sworn to secrecy" her mother said angry that she couldn't see one.

"I doubt that the government knows mum" she said rolling her eyes.

"Anyway kagome, do you want something to eat"

Kagome nodded fiercely "Yes please I'm starving, but… I don't thing I should eat up here case it wakes him, he looks so peaceful when he sleeps here." she said smiling again.

"I don't think even rumen could wake him" she giggled as she left the room.

Inuyasha stirred as his noise sniffed at something near his face, the aromas on ramen noodles slowly drifted away followed closely by two women giggling. "See, I told you mum" said a voice coming from in front of him, "Yes, yes, I'll give you that 10 later" said another voice still giggling, "I'll leave it here for when he's fully awake… and has stopped fussing about you." she said as foot steps lead him to believe she was leaving the room.

Opening his eyes, groggily, he could see the giggling girl smiling as she placed a piece, of what looked like, egg into her mouth then looked down at him, "Oh" she said seeing him awake, "about time you got up it's almost midday" she laughed.

"I… was asleep" he asked confused as to how and why he was asleep and also wondered why he felt so groggy, like he hadn't slept in months. "KAGOME!" he yelled jumping up, "YOUR AWAKE".

Kagome giggled slightly as he jumped and yelled almost at her "of course I am, I've been awake for a few hours now plus I got too hungry" she said looking at her now empty plate. Inuyasha looked at her seriously as he moved his face only centimetres from her face, "kagome" he said getting her attention "Tell me, are you ok" he asked sincerely worried.

Kagome felt a slight blush creep across her cheeks, tho she tried desperately to stop it, as she looked into Inuyasha's, beautiful, amber eyes. She smiled softly as she spoke "I'm fine Inuyasha…really".

Inuyasha still didn't believe her as he placed his hand on her forehead, then onto his to measure her temperature "You have a fever" he said his face never changing. Kagomes blush grow as he studied her "I…t…'s just a l…little one… the doctor said it would go down." she said almost unable to control her own voice.

"What!" Inuyasha said standing up crossing his arms, "He was here again." eh said annoyed he didn't smell him even if he was asleep.

"No…mum called him… he said that my fever would go down."

Inuyasha still stood there with his arms folded, 'so she is ok' he thought relived that she was much better but he refused to move because at that moment he was so happy he was fighting back the erg to hug her, so he remained still.

"Its getting cold."

"HU" he asked looking at kagome as if she were going mad.

"You should start eating" she said but he was still confused "The rumen." she said realising he had no idea it was even there.

Inuyasha turned to her desk were a container of rumen sat waiting for him "So that was what I smelt" he said grabbing it and shovelling it down his throat. "Mmmm it tastes better today." he said as kagome looked at him now confused. "I think your mum had a bad batch yesterday…", slurp, "it smelt funny." he said screwing up his noise.

Kagome couldn't help but laugh 'He had smelt the drugs but ate it anyway' she thought as he looked at her.

"What's so funny wrench" he said as she held her stomach.

"Nothing Inuyasha…hahaha… Not a thing" she said as she calmed down.

Inuyasha said nothing as he was just happy to see her laugh again, and he was rather hungry for non-strange-smelling rumen. He finished and watched miss H come in and order kagome to stay in bed which he himself had no problem with because she needed her rest thought he was rather annoyed when she said she was going to do school work but let her do so anyway, he thought that it would at lest keep her busy'.

Kagome sighed as she finished her homework for the week, putting down her pencil she glanced at her, new, clock on her bedside table. "Oh" she said sighing again, "Its only three o'clock. What am I going to do in bed all day." she said as Inuyasha looked up from his seat on the floor.

"maybe I'll draw something" she said grabbing her pencil again and a blank piece of paper… five minutes later "AH, I CANT STAND IT" she said throwing her pencil at the still blank piece of paper.

"Stop complaining would you, there's no way I'm letting you out of that bed and that's final" he said strongly which rather annoyed kagome.

"You couldn't stop me if you tried." she said pointing to his beads.

"I could still stop you." he said determined to win.

"And just what are you going to…" kagome stopped as she seen Inuyasha stand and walk towards her on the bed as he sat on the edge, "Inuyasha what are you…".

"Now if you try to move I cant stop you and you cant sit me or it'll get you as well" he said grabing her shoulder and making her layback down.

"NO" she said trying to sit up again, "Inuyasha let me go, I cant stand it… I'm bored out of my mind".

"no wench your not moving".

"Inuyasha it you don't let me go I'll scream right in your ears" she said, tho she never would, they're to sensitive it would harm him to much, and they're just to cute.

"You would not." he said knowing she hates hurting his ears, tho he couldn't figure out why.

'Damn' she thought, "You cant make me stay here and do nothing for the rest of the day… you wont even let me si…". Inuyasha's hand clamped down on Kagomes mouth with lightning speed as she realised what she was about to say and both just waited to see if the command had taken. Kagome and Inuyasha sighed when nothing happened, tho Kagomes was muffled, Inuyasha glared at kagome "mormi" she mumbled through his hand(which translates into sorry).

Inuyasha said nothing but removed his hand from he mouth, after awhile of silence kagome remembered something her mother said "he's been at the shrine that hole time…" 'wait a minute' "Inuyasha".

"hum"

"If you haven't left the shrine the hole time I was out then how did you tell Sango and the others what happened." she asked as he looked to the floor avoiding her gaze "THEY DON'T KNOW." she yelled.

"I didn't think they needed to know, they would just think you wear taking longer to come back then usual and that I had gone to get you.".

"No they wouldn't, when I when back the last time before I …" she said unable to finish her sentence as Inuyasha looked to the floor again, "…when I when back, I went to the village first, they all thought I was just going to talk to you and come right back." she said franticly "if I didn't return they would have just thought I got into another fight with you and went home again, but not even you returned. They're probably all worried senseless or worse… think we're dead." she said as he wondered what they would do if they thought they were dead. "I have to go back" she said trying to get up again.

"No your not, I don't care what you think they think we can ways tell them tomorrow" he said holding her down again.

"No we cant. I cant imagine what they might be going through, not knowing if we're dead or alive, I couldn't stand it.".

"I don't care you not going, I'll go."

"No, if you had gone in the first place I wouldn't have to go now".

"I was more worried about YOU" he said his voice getting lower.

Kagome stopped struggling to stare at Inuyasha, she know he was worried but for him to admit it aloud was…

"You were unconscious kagome, for more than three days, there was no way I was leaving you alone. I had to protect you, I should have protected you, you shouldn't have ever been hurt in the first place, I should have been there and non of this would have happened." he said softly with his head lowered as his bangs hid his face.

Kagomes was speechless as she stared at him 'He's saying this aloud, dose he know he's saying it aloud, I should say something… say something damn it.' she thought as he spoke "Inuyasha…"

"I know its my fault kagome, I'm the only one to blame."

"Inuyasha I…

"I knew you'd come back soon, I should have been waiting for you at the well. I…" Inuyasha was cut off as kagome sat up from the bed and rapped her arms around his chest with her head just above his shoulder. "Kagome…"

"I don't blame you Inuyasha, it wasn't all your fault, I shouldn't have wondered for so long in the dark alone, and I ran from you, you didn't even know I was there…"

"But I should hav…"

"No you shouldn't have, I know the forest is full of demons at night but I didn't care. I'm not completely useless either I can walk to the village without you protection, alto… I don't mind it." she said softly as he hugged her back.

Kagome pulled back suddenly as a strange felling washed over her body, "What is it" Inuyasha asked,.

"I don't know all of a sudden I feel wired", then it hit her, a sheer amount of gut grinding, excruciating pain slamming through her body. It hit her, like a knife she never seen coming, only all over her body all a once. Kagomes limbs burned as her mussels begged for, what ever the cause was, to stop. The only way to describe the felling that was over-taking her mind and body was that it felt like she was being eaten alive from the inside-out.

A/N: well that's all for that one I made it extra long cause I never seem to post any on time so from now on I well try to make them longer but no promises when I post them. Oh and please, please review because I really, really, really ,really want to know what you think even if its just to yell at me cause I have bad gramma or never post new chapters on time.
