Kagome awoke to the early morning sunlight beaming in her face. She raised her hand to shield her eyes from the rays. Her mind was slightly clouded as she tried to remember the incidents of the night past. As Kagome thought, she could feel wonderful warmth on her back. She turned her head to find a hanyou, his arm wrapped around her abdomen, pressing her to him.
Suddenly, the memories of last night flooded Kagome's mind. Her face twisted into a horrified grimace. She tried to writhe free of InuYasha's grasp, but it only made him hold tighter. "My mother is going to kill me!" Kagome shrieked under her breath.
Once more, Kagome attempted to free herself from InuYasha's death grip. She had to get away… Just for a few days. She had to think this over. How could she have let this happen? Kagome searched the small clearing for her clothing. She dressed quickly; keeping watch for any person or demon that might find them there. Luckily, they hadn't wandered too far from the village. Kagome crept into the hut where she found everyone else to be sleeping. Quietly, she grabbed her bag and left a quick note.
"Please do not worry about me. I have returned to my time for a few days. I'll see you when I can."
The note, which she placed just on the inside of the door, sounded more cheery than she felt. Her head spun as she stalked towards her way home. "Maybe she'll understand?" Kagome thought dully. Yeah, right. The chance of that happening was slim to none. But then… There was the possibility that despite what had happened last night, she had nothing to worry about. Perhaps, it would be okay and she could forget this ever occurred.
Her mind reassured by the thought, Kagome dived into the Bone Eater's Well. She was ready to answer the question. Was she pregnant or not?
InuYasha stretched beneath the afternoon rays. As he scratched the back of his head, his ears twitched in annoyance. It seemed something was missing. A sudden cool breeze sent a chill down his spine. His eyes pricked open as he realized what, or whom, was missing. "Kagome!" He staggered to his feet, breathing in deeply to pick up any suspicious scents.
But only the faint scent of Kagome loomed in the calm air. Nearly forgetting to redress himself, InuYasha followed the lilac scent to the village that seemed like home. The intoxicating aroma led the hanyou to a particular hut, a hut that belonged to a particular younger sister of a dead priestess that once held InuYasha's heart. InuYasha made a casual entry but was instantly disappointed at the absence of Kagome.
"So, he finally decides to show himself," a smooth voice chuckles through sips of herbal tea. "He must have had one busy night to have been gone so long."
"Shut it, Miroku," InuYasha scowls. But he can't help but feel blood rush to his cheeks. Miroku must have took notice of the redness, for he continued on…
"I wonder where Kagome has gotten to? InuYasha? You were the last to see her, were you not?
"I said can it, Monk!" InuYasha took a seat opposite Miroku, but his death glare continued. To the stare, though, Miroku ignored and continued sipping his tea.
"InuYasha," Sango piped up before tension became too tight, "Kagome has gone back to her time. She left this note." The demon slayer handed over the note and continued on, "Kagome will be back in a few days. So there's no need to fuss."
I'll wait a two or three days, InuYasha decided. But if Kagome doesn't come back soon, I'm going after her.
