Chapter 18~Home!

~~~Kagome awoke to find herself in a large ward with many beds in it and some people in those beds, she included. She realized that she must of zoned out again and looked at her arm where a bandage wrapped around the length of it. She groaned at the thought of what she had done. But the memory of being in the tiny cell still haunted her. She didnt want to go back and she was affraid she might have to if they saw she was awake and well again. Just then she heard alot of rustling and muffled voices. She closed her eyes, not wanting anyone to know she was awake just yet. Then she heard a familiar voice, two in fact. She snapped her eyes oepen and looked at the two who seemed to storm into the room with a nurse following behind scolding and telling them that they couldnt just barge in. Soon her bed was flanked by two familiar faces and she sighed happily but sadly.

"Kagome?? Kagome can you hear me??" came the familiar voice of Kyoto, the girl she had come to think of as a dear friend, someone she had shared many of her deepest and darkest secrets with. Of all people she would most likely understand her actions this night.

"Wake up Kagome..wake up you silly wentch!" came the voice of Inuyasha and Kagome had to fight back a growl and and grin. She could hear the worry in his voice. She was so in tune with things like that now that it was easy to detect most of the times and right now he wasnt trying to hide them, just cover it with crude words as always.

"Im awake.." she whisped. Kyoto hugged her fiercly.

"Ohhh Kagomeeeeeeee..Im sooooo glad your alright I was soo affraid when I heard." Kyoto replied with zeal and concern.

"Im alright Kyoto." Kagome replied, although her eyes stinged. She wanted to cry. It felt good to have someone she knew here with her. She soooooo did not want to go back to that cell and having Kyoto and Inuyasha here she had hope. She knew they were rich and powerfull and if she had to beg and make every promise in the world to them to help her get out then she would. Anything to get out of there. She couldnt go back she just couldnt.

"Oi!...you ok wentch??" Inuyasha asked in a hard but oddly enough a caring concerned voice. Kagome looked at him and smiled. He was soo cute and thoughtfull when he tried she thought.

"I want to go home." she whispered and they nodded. But they didnt understand really.

"Your outta here..you'll be back at the penthouse in a few minutes." came Inuyasha's voice and Kagome sighed and her heart hurt.

"No,,,thats not my home..I dont have a home do I???" she replied with a emotionless giggle. she had no home. She had no where to go. She started to laugh more. She saw the worried looks on Inuyasha and Kyoto's faces.

"Please...take me home..take me to my parents house." she asked weakly, tired of trying to be strong. She wanted her mother. She wanted to feel safe. To feel like she belonged. Even if her mother found out what she didnt want her to know, it was worth it to be home again, to be with her mother.

"Are you sure Kagome?" Kyoto asked, knowing how Kagome felt about telling her mom about what she went threw now a days.

"Fuck that!..why take you there?? you have a home!..you live at the penthouse! and we can keep an eye on you better there!" came Inu's voice. Kagome frowned.

"The penthouse isnt my home Inu....I dont have a home." she replied weakly, sadly, she felt soo out of place in the world, how could he ever understand that?

"YES YOU DO!" he growled and Kagome sighed.

"No I dont..as much as i appreciate Kyoto for letting me stay there its still not MY home..dont you understand???...its not MINE...even my dumpy apartment was MINE..right now I have nothing and I just want to go to my moms....please?" she replied with a whispered plea. Inuyasha looked like he wanted to object but didnt say a word.

*************************************************************** ******************************

~~~Kagome was in the back of the limo that she and Inuyasha and Kyoto where in with her as they took her from that wretched jail house and was now taking her home to her mothers house. She dreaded going to her moms. The looks the questons. She would have to tell her mom and step dad everything and reveal her weakness to them. She did not relish that but it was best. Right now she needed to feel some semblence of peace, ease and at home. If not her own place then the next best thing was at her parents house. She just hated dissappointing them.

~~~On the ride there she heard Inuyasha grumbling under his breath. He kept going on and on why she couldnt just go to the penthouse and so forth. He just didnt understand, so she decided to enlighten him.

"You dont understand Inu..and you never will...you will never know what if feels like to feel empty..to feel like you dont belong..to worry about having a warm bed to sleep in?...a roof over your head...wondering if you will wake up in the morning with food on your plate and clothes on your back.......youve always been with money and everything youve wanted...Ive been without alot in my life..Ive been homeless..felt the emptiness of not belonging..of knowing your were out of the loop..not here or there..never belonging but always wishing and hoping..you will never understand..but dont judge me for what I am either." she stated.

"I AM NOT JUDGING!" he growled. And Kagome smiled.

"No your not...but just try to understand how I feel and why I need to be somewhere that I feel safe..and comfortable?" she asked.

~~~Inuyasha grumbled but didnt say much. Kyoto hugged her and didnt really say much either. Finally the limo pulled up in front of her house. and with great protest Inu grabbed her and carried her up the steps that led to her parents home. At the front door her mother met her and she looked worried. Kagome didnt want Inuyasha here when she told her parents so she bid him thank you and farewell telling him to tell Kyoto she would be in touch as she promised. Grudgingly Inuyasha left and grumbled all the way.

~~~kagome's mom led her in the house and she saw her step father there with worry in his eyes as well. She broke down crying and spilled her guts out to them. She told them about Hojo's latest attacks and how she lost her apartment, about everything after that and the things that led to her incarceration and her realease. By the end her mother was crying and her step father was hugging them both. He held them and told her all would be ok. She was home. She was safe and she was with them again. They would take care of her. She cried like she had never cried before and finally let her mother lead her to a bed to sleep. She feel asleep with tears in her eyes and wondered if she would ever see Inu and Kyoto again. For now though she felt safe, she felt comfortable and most of all she felt at home.
