InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Hurt ❯ Wondering What's Wrong With Me ( Chapter 3 )

[ T - Teen: Not suitable for readers under 13 ]

The group of shard hunters headed out on their journey. Kagome had gotten back the feudal era a little sooner than expected so they began following a rumor they heard about a jewel shard. They had been two weeks into to be the present time. Since it was summer break Kagome could stay in the feudal era for longer amounts of time. It was about a month after what Kagome and Sango dubbed `the incident'. The boys in the group had no idea what happened to Kagome.
 
“Kagome, wake up,” Sango gently shook her friend awake. Kagome slowly opened her eyes. Miroku was making a fire while talking to Shippo and Inuyasha was no where to be seen. Suddenly her stomach lurched and Kagome felt something rise in her throat.
 
Kagome shook off Sango and ran into the woods, far away from the camp. Sango looked up worriedly at her friend. “Kagome? Kagome!”
 
 
Coughing sounds flooded her ears and a fowl smell filled her nose as she threw up again. Kagome knelt near a nearby stream to wash her face when it was all over and done with. This is the third morning this week I woke up doing this. I wish I had woken up before Miroku and Sango. Now they must be worried about me.
 
Kagome stood up and began the slow walk back to camp. What's wrong with me? I don't feel sick for the rest of the day but in the mornings it's terrible. Kagome was pulled from her thoughts when everybody's favorite hanyou jumped in front of her.
 
“Inuyasha!” she gasped and put her hand over her chest. “Don't scare me like that. What are you doing out here?”
 
“The better question is what are you doing out here. Aren't you normally making breakfast around this time?”
 
“Uh, I wanted to take a walk this morning,” Kagome lied.
 
“Really? `Cause normally that kit is attached to your hip in the mornings.”
 
“Uh, he was sleeping?”
 
“Kagome?”
 
“Yes?”
 
“No he wasn't.” Drat! He's a lot smarter than he lets on.
 
“Inuyasha, I-,”
 
“This is the third morning in a row. What the hell is going on with you?” He eyed the miko suspiciously. He knows something's wrong. Crap, what do I tell him?
 
“I haven't been feeling well. That's all,” Well, it was only a half-lie. She could live with it.
 
“Kagome…”
 
“Hey Inuyasha, why don't we go back to camp and I'll make you some ramen?” Kagome changed the subject. Inuyasha's ears perked up at the word `ramen' and grabbed her wrist, dragging her back to camp the whole way.
