Well guys here you go! I am back after...four years? I replaced chapter seven with this chapter because I think I was taking it way to fast. I did more research on cancer and the steps so I have some plans in my head for this story. Hope you like it!

Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha

Goodbye Isnt Forever

Chapter 7

Are you serious! Did he really just ask her to be his girlfriend? She didn't even know he liked her like that. Well sure he kissed her but...come on now. It could've been a joke. Kagome was shocked. Beyond shocked! She sat there with her mouth open and wide eyes. He wasn't looking at her but she noticed how tense he was. Oh god! This is what she has been waiting for and she doesn't even know what to say. Should she? I mean, yeah she loves him so much but should she really? Of course she should.

"Inuyasha...?" She called wanting him to face her. He closed his eyes for a moment then opened then and turned to her slowly. She smiled at how cute he looked when he was blushing. "Yes. I'll be your girlfriend."

Inuyasha let out the breath he didn't know he was holding. She said yes! He was so overwhelmed with joy he felt like jumping up and screaming. Of course he wouldn't embarrass himself like that though. Grinning wide he made a note to thank Miroku tomorrow.

Leaning forward he cupped her chin and kissed her lightly. Both of them realized that this kiss was more passionate then the last one when Inuyasha had surprised her. Sparks blasted in both of their minds making the kiss more intense. Boldly Inuyasha licked across her lips. Kagome hesitated but opened her mouth as he deepend it.

Kagome was the first to pull away. She smiled shyly and blushed.

"Get some sleep. You're tired." He kissed her forehead and leaned back keeping his arms wrapped around her. He would stay until she fell asleep.

As much as she wanted to stay awake and in his arms, she was just too exhausted. The second she closed her eyes she was asleep.

Next Day…

Kagome awoke to the feel of something soft but hard against her back and around her. Not wanting to open her eyes and still tired she ignored it and snuggled back into the blankets. Shock was an understatement of what she felt when the solid thing against her back moved and mumbled something.

"Hn…K'gome."

Slowly turning her head she relaxed when she saw Inuyashas face. But her relaxation quickly left when she noticed the position they were in. Carefully trying not to wake him she began prying his arms from around her waist.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha mumbled tightening his arms around her. "Hey. You're awake."

Kagomes blush darkened even more. "Yea. Um…what are you…doing…in my bed?"

Inuyasha smirked at her shyness. "You fell asleep again. I was going to wait for you to wake but I guess I fell asleep too."

"Oh. What time is it?"

Inuyasha looked at his watch. "Almost nine thirty."

Whatever Kagome was going to say next was interrupted as the doctor walked into the room. "Good morning Ms. Higurashi. Oh, I see you have company." He cleared his throat and almost laughed at the tomato colored face girl attempting to hide under the covers.

"Yes Doctor?" She mumbled.

"Hm. Well I was hoping your mother was here already so we could talk. I'm assuming she will be stopping by later?" He asked. Kagome nodded from under he covers and this time the doctor chuckled slightly. "Alright then. I will be waiting for her to arrive. I will send in a nurse in a few minutes to take your temperature. Let me know if you need anything." He said and walked out closing the door.

Kagome poked her head out from the covers after she heard the door click. "That was embarrassing."

"Why?" Inuyasha questioned.

Stuttering she replied, "Well…there's a guy…in my bed."

He laughed and gave her a quick kiss making her blush even more before slowly getting up out of the bed. "I gotta use the bathroom. Kags, do you need anything? Water or food?"

Once again before Kagome could answer her hospital phone rang.

"Hello?" She answered.

"Kagome dear. You're awake good."

"Hi mama."

"Hi hon. Your doctor called me earlier said that he wanted to speak to us. I'm leaving work right now so I should be there soon. How are you feeling?"

"I'm fine. Inuyasha is here. He's going to get me some food. Did the doctor tell you about what?"

"No sweetie he didn't say. That's nice of Inuyasha. I gotta go but I'll see you soon. I love you."

"Love you too. Bye mama." Kagome hung up just as Inuyasha was coming out of the bathroom.

"Your mom?" He asked. Kagome nodded and turned on her television.

"Yeah. She's on her way here. Something about the doctor wanting to talk to us."

"Oh…" Inuyasha held his breath and sat back down next to her on the bed giving her a quick kiss on the lips. A nurse came in with some breakfast and to take Kagomes temperature then quickly left. "Kags? Are you feeling alright?" Inuyasha asked softly.

Not wanting to cry anymore Kagome nodded with watery eyes. "Yeah I guess. I mean, what can I do?" Inuyasha sighed and hugged her close. Kissing her briefly again let her go so she could eat her breakfast. "Yuck! They want us to eat this!?" Kagome gagged lifting the lid off the tray of food.

Inuyasha laughed. "Want me to go search for some edible food in the cafeteria?"

"Oh yes! They have these good brownies and bagels. Get me that. And don't forget the cream cheese!" Kagome jumped excitedly.

"Feh. Alright. Be right back. And Don't move."

Kagome nodded and smiled as she watched him leave the room.

"Kagome and Inuyasha sitting in a tree. K-I-S-S-I-N-G." Akio sang.

Said girl laughed and threw a pillow in his direction. "Hey! Shut up!"

Akio was laughing. "Good morning to you too. So you and Inuyasha and item now?"

For the first time in the last few days Kagome had smiled a genuine smile. "Yeah. He asked me last night. It would've been perfect if I hadn't been well…here."

Akio sighed. "Yeah. I'm happy that you guys worked it out. It doesn't seem like it now but having him will make you much stronger to fight this."

"I know. And I'm happy about that. I just wish I could go back home and live my normal life with my normal boyfriend. This sucks. My first boyfriend and I get him in the hospital."

"Hi honey!" Mrs. Higurashi called walking into the room and running to hug her daughter.

"Mama!" Kagome returned the hug fiercely and almost let the tears go.

"How are you baby?"

"As fine as I can be after being told I have cancer." Kagome shrugged.

Mrs. Higurashi sighed. "I'm sorry baby. Don't let it bring you down. Remember I believe in you and I know your strong enough to get through this." She hugged her daughter and stroked her hair. Kagome could hold back her tears anymore. Having her mother here was so important to her. "Did Inuyasha leave?"

Shaking her head and letting go of the hug she wiped away the few tears that escaped. "No. He went to get me some normal food from the cafeteria."

"Oh, that's nice of him."

Right then Inuyasha came back into the room with a bag full of bagels and brownies.

"Hi Mrs. Higurashi." He said and handed the bag to Kagome.

"Hello sweetie."

"Geez. What did you do buy the whole café" Kagome asked going through the bag and pulling out a bagel.

"Keh! No! I just though you might be hungry later." He blushed and sat next to her.

"I know. Thank you." Kagome smiled at him and leaned over to kiss his cheek. He blushed a little more and lightly stroked her hair.

Noticing the intimate gesture Mrs. Higurashi smiled and cleared her throat. "Is there something I need to know about you too?"

Kagome almost choked on her bagel and Inuyasha was quick to pat her back and give her some water. "W-What?"

"Honey. You Don't have to hide anything. You know I would be more than ecstatic if you two finally got together." Both Kagome and Inuyasha blushed and nodded. "So who made the first move?"

"Mom!"

Mrs. Higurashi laughed. "I was just asking honey? Was it you Inuyasha? I think it's about time." Turning a deeper shade of red Inuyasha looked at Kagome then back at her mother and nodded. "Well I'm happy for the both of you! Go ahead and eat. I'm going to go look for the doctor." She said and left.

"I'll leave you two alone. I need to stretch my legs." Akio said and also left the room.

"I'm starting to like that guy." Inuyasha said and leaned over to kiss her but she pulled away. "Hey!"

"Hey what? I've got food in my mouth." Kagome said chewing the rest of her bagel and swallowed. "Ok. Now I'm ready." She said licking her lips to get any cream cheese on them.

Inuyasha smirked and felt himself twitch when she licked her lips. "Good." He said and kissed her greedily. Kagome sighed and opened her mouth for him wrapping her arms around his neck. The hanyou pushed his tongue into her mouth and held her around the waist. He almost groaned when she tilted her head to deepen the kiss when…

"Ok Ms. Higurashi. Oh I keep seeming to walk in at the wrong time." The doctor said and laughed as the two teenagers jumped apart blushing.

Kagome cleared her throat and blushed deeper when she realized her mom was with the doctor. "Um…Hi mama, doctor." Inuyasha had jumped off her bed and sat in the chair next to it.

"Sweetie the doctor wishes to speak with us."

"Yes. Um…Do you mind if your…boyfriend…is in the room?" The doctor questioned.

"No. That's fine. Is something wrong doctor?" Kagome asked glancing at Inuyashas hand holding hers.

"Nothing is wrong. I just wanted to inform you that from the last blood results I have decided that your white blood cell count is good enough for you to go on chemotherapy."

I'm not to sure if I'm satisfied with this chapter. It's been a couple years since I've written anything. Maybe I'm losing my touch? Well as you can see I deleted chapter seven and rewrote it. I have a good plot in my head. Hope you guys liked it. Fluffy enough? Now I cant promise to get the next chapter out tomorrow because i work from 8 to 5 everyday and i go to school from 5 to 9. . so i have a busy schedule. But i take my journal with me and write down any ideas during class. hehe. i should be paying attention. So my goal is to get the next chapter out thursday if not saturday. I did as much research as i could about cancer so if i got something wrong dont be afraid to correct me. Thanks for reading!

Please leave me a review! It would be greatly appreciated!
