Chapter 4: Company
Kagome awoke and looked around. She saw a plain white room and figured out where she was. She had stayed overnight at the hospital to see if she really had cancer or not. She looked over to the side and saw Yash curled up on the couch with Kit in his arms. She smiled at the sight. There was nothing more she could ask for. All she wanted was the two people she loved most in the world was to be happy.
Dr. Miroku had told her the costs of all the treatment she would need. Luckily, their insurance paid for most of the costs. All they really had to pay was a couple thousand dollars, which was great since the total cost was so much more.
Kagome felt dizzy and closed her eyes. All the drugs that they pumped into her were starting to take a toll on her body. She didn't get it. How could she get cancer? Everything was just going to fall apart from here. She would have to quit her job and then stay at a hospital for a couple years.
She won't be there for Kit or Yash during the rough times. How was she going to spend time with her family if she was locked up in a hospital for a year? This just wasn't fair! Tears began to well up in her eyes and she tried to wipe them away.
Yash woke up to the sound of Kagome crying and moved Kit on to the couch. He stood up and went over to Kagome. “What's wrong?” Yash asked.
“What do you mean what's wrong?! I have fucking cancer!” Kagome cried.
“I know you'll get through this Kags. Don't worry about anything, just get better for me. Get better for Kit. I don't think she can handle losing two mothers. I'll do whatever it takes to make you better,” he said wiping away her tears.
“But I'm going to miss being with you guys. I'll have to stay in a hospital for a year or two and I won't be able to see you guys anytime I want,” Kagome said.
“We'll come see you everyday after I get off work. We will be together every chance we get and the office will have to let me off for six weeks so I can take care of you. It's the law you know?” he said.
“I know. I guess I shouldn't be crying then. You always make me sound like I'm crying for nothing,” she smiled through her tears.
“No, I just know how to comfort you,” he smirked and kissed her forehead.

Yash helped Kagome walk into their house with Kit tagging along behind them. Kagome sat down on the couch and sighed. The drugs were still in her system and she couldn't really do much without help. She hated it. She hated depending on other people to just do one thing for herself.
Two months from now she would start treatment for her cancer. She really did have cancer and so Miroku set her up to where she could quit her job and get everything ready for treatment.
“Are you okay, babe?” Yash asked.
“Yeah just come here and give me a hug,” Kagome said. Yash smiled and sat next to her. He wrapped his arms around her waist and pulled her close to his chest. Kagome closed her eyes and listened to Yash's heartbeat. Soon she was asleep.
Yash got comfortable and decided a nap was a great idea. He looked down at Kagome before drifting asleep.
~*~*~
Kagome got packed and headed for the front door. Yash stopped her and asked, “Where do you think you're going?”
“You know exactly where! I'm going on that business trip! I promised my boss I would go and that would be the last thing I do before I quit,” Kagome said.
“You're sick Kagome. We already fought about this all night and I don't want you going to another country when you could get seriously sick,” Yash said.
“I'll be fine! It's only one week and I'll be in the hotel room the whole time,” Kagome assured him.
“No, I'm not letting you go,” Yash said picking her up and throwing her over his shoulder.
“Put me down right now!” Kagome screamed as she hit his back. Yash went into their bedroom and dropped Kagome on to their room.
“All I have to do is keep you occupied for a couple hours right? No problem for me,” Yash smirked and leaned down to kiss Kagome. Kagome moaned and gave in.
~*~*~
Kagome opened her eyes and looked at a sleeping Yash. All it took was one kiss and she was defenseless. Why did her fiancée have to be so perfect? She went up to kiss him so she could wake him up.
Yash groaned and woke up. “I like waking up like that,” he smiled and began kissing her neck.
“You made me miss my flight,” Kagome stated. He continued to kiss her neck ignoring her.
“I love you Kagome,” he whispered against her neck. Kagome smiled and ran a hand through her hair.
The door opened and Kit ran into the room. “Mama! Are you feeling better?” Kit asked.
“Who told you I wasn't okay?” Kagome asked, covering herself up with the blanket. Yash had stopped doing what he was doing and hid under the covers for some reason.
“Papa said that you weren't feeling well so he was going to make it better. He said not to disturbed you until later,” Kit said.
“Well I am feeling a lot better thank you sweetie,” Kagome smiled.
“Good! Grandma is coming over!” Kit said.
“What are you talking about?” Kagome asked.
“Grandma called a long time ago and said she was coming over,” Kit replied.
“When did she say she was coming over?” Kagome asked.
The doorbell rang and Kit ran to get the door. Kagome and Yash jumped up, trying to get dressed as fast as they could.
“This is perfect!” Kagome mumbled to herself. She ran into the bathroom and straightened herself up.
“You're acting like we are teenagers who just had sex in your parents bed! Calm down Kags,” Yash said.
“My mom is a firm believer of not having sex until you are married,” Kagome stated and began to walk out of the bedroom.
“Kagome! How are you feeling? Is Yash taking good care of you?” Kimiko asked.
“I'm fine mom. Yash is great. He's the best doctor I can find,” Kagome smiled and kissed Yash's cheek.
“Good, I'm glad. You better be treating my little girl like a queen. I can't believe my baby has cancer!” Kimiko cried.
“Don't worry about Kagome. She's going to be fine. She's strong and I'll make sure she has everything she needs,” Yash promised.
“Yash is great when it comes to taking care of me. There's no need to worry, mom,” Kagome reassured.
“Okay, I'll try not to worry, but if there's anything you need don't hesitate to call,” Kimiko smiled.
“We won't, believe me we won't,” Kagome said. Just then the door opened and Kouga walked in.
“KAGOME! I JUST HEARD THE NEWS!” Kouga yelled hugging Kagome.
“Calm down Kouga. I'm fine,” Kagome said.
Kouga started sniffing Kagome to see if the sickness was fatal. He stopped when he smelt the arousal on her and looked at Yash with a sly smirk.
Kouga let go of her and said, “Well if you are still having sex with that dog over there then you must be okay.”
Kagome's eyes widened in shock and she shook her head. Kimiko just looked from Yash to Kouga to Kagome.
“Don't worry Kagome dear. I already know. Although I wish you had waited, living with a guy like Yash for five years and not having sex with him would start to me wonder if you turned lesbian or something,” Kimiko smiled.
“MOM! Not in front of Kit!” Kagome cried bowing her head in embarrassment.
“Come on honey. Let's let the grown ups talk and you can show Grandma your room,” Kimiko said.
“Okay!” Kit squealed and grabbed her grandmother's hand before leading her off.
“That was humiliating,” Kagome sighed and sat down.
“It wasn't that bad. At least your mother didn't explode on you,” Yash said.
“How did you know we had sex anyway?” Kagome asked Kouga.
“Demon nose remember. Plus Yash told me what you guys did in Hawaii,” Kouga smirked.
“You told him?!” Kagome yelled.
“I couldn't help it. He was going to beat it out of me if I didn't tell him,” Yash said.
“It's true. I just wanted to make sure he treated you right,” Kouga stated.
“Yeah sure,” Kagome mumbled under her breath.
The doorbell rang and Yash went to go answer it. There stood Yuki, holding flowers. “What do you want kid?” Yash asked.
“I'm here to see Kagome and I'm not a kid,” Yuki stated.
Kagome walked up and smiled, “Hi Yuki! What are you doing here?”
“The boss said you cancelled the business trip at the last second and so I cam to see what was wrong,” Yuki said.
Yash just scuffed and walked off. Kagome walked outside to talk to Yuki. “I found out I have cancer and I'm getting treatment in a couple months so I quit my job,” she said.
“That's too bad. I was really looking forward to spending that week alone with you,” he sighed.
“Awww I'm not that great. It would have been just work anyway,” she said.
“You know Kagome, I've really liked you for a long time now,” he said.
“Well I'm engaged so nothing can happen,” she said growing uncomfortable.
“He'll never have to know,” Yuki said and with that he leaned in and kissed her.
Kagome pushed him back and slapped him across the face. “Don't you dare touch me! All you want is an easy lay and believe me you're looking in the wrong place kid,” Kagome snapped and went back into her house.
Yuki dropped his flowers and grew angry. “Believe me Kagome. You will be mine soon,” he said to himself before leaving.

A/N: Just some more info! There are two main treatments for cancer. Chemotherapy is for the cancers that are in the blood because it's an injection. That's the one where you lose your hair. Radiation therapy (the one that Kagome's getting) is radioactive waves going into your body so it can kill cancers in the organs. That one you don't usually lose your hair. So Kagome will still have her hair if she goes through with it and gets cured.
What do you guys think? Happy or sad ending?
