Chapter 2: Flying
 
Kagome couldn't get her mind around the lecture she had gone through. Her best friend Sango sat across from her.
 
“Is something bothering you?” Sango asked.
 
“No, I just didn't get Dr. Hideki's lecture,” Kagome answered innocently. The truth was that she hadn't seen Inuyasha in a week. She was beginning to think she imagined the whole situation. Was she really going insane?
 
“Look over there! Who's that? I've never seen him around here before,” Sango commented and Kagome looked over to see a demon staring at her. No way! Why did she think he was a demon?
 
It was the man that fought against Inuyasha that eventful night. Kagome turned back to Sango before hearing a voice in her mind. “Get out of there Kagome…”
 
“Let's go buy a drink Sango,” Kagome suggested standing.
 
“He won't eat you in a public area…” the voice chimed in.
 
Kagome looked around her looking for the source of the voice. Where was he? Sango got up and they left to buy some drinks.
 
“Oh shoot! I forgot! I have to meet Miroku in ten minutes!” Sango cried.
 
“Go and call me later to talk about how you two are,” Kagome smiled.
 
“Thanks! Bye!” Sango waved and ran the other direction. Kagome turned around and suddenly saw Inuyasha in front and suddenly Inuyasha appeared in front of her. She jumped back screaming at the sudden shock.
 
“How the hell did you do that?” Kagome yelled.
 
“Let's go,” Inuyasha said pulling Kagome away from the man that sat staring at her,
 
“Wait! Inuyasha! Where are you taking me?” Kagome asked.
 
“We will go back to your apartment for now. You have to get out of his sight. He won't follow you with me around,” Inuyasha said as they ran down the street. Kagome was getting out of breath and couldn't keep up with him.
 
“Slow down! I'm only human!” Kagome cried and realized the double meaning behind it.
 
“Sorry Kagome. We can walk from here. I'm not used to human restrictions.”
 
“Well I'm still trying to accept the fact that demons exist.”

Kagome slept soundly on her couch. She moaned rolling over the edge and squealed when she hit the floor. She groaned now fully awake and climbed up to sit on the couch. When had she fallen asleep?
 
“Good morning!” a child's voice rang out. Kagome looked over to see a little boy sitting next to her.
 
“Who are you? How did you get into my home?” Kagome asked not processing her shock very well.
 
“I'm Inuyasha's cousin Shippo! It's nice to meet you!” the boy smiled.
 
“I'm Kagome. Nice to meet you too. Where's Inuyasha?” Kagome asked smiling a little too sweetly.
 
“He's in the kitchen,” Shippo answered. Kagome stood and walked over to the kitchen.
 
“What the hell do you think you're doing?! Who said you could stay here let alone bring a kid?”
 
“Grateful? What have you done to make me grateful for you to be around me?”
 
“You're such a stubborn woman! Go play with Shippo or something. I have to go to the other world for a bit.”
 
Kagome huffed and stomped into the living room. She plopped down in the couch and Shippo touched her arm. She looked over at him and her heart completely melted at the sight of his cute innocent face.
 
“You don't like Inuyasha much do you Ms. Kagome?” Shippo asked.
 
It's not that. I'm just really confused at the moment. I don't know him enough to not like him.”
 
“That's good because he likes you! He talks about you all the time!” Shippo smiled. Kagome blushed a bit before looking at her lap.
 
“What did you do Shippo?” Inuyasha's voice came in.
 
I didn't do anything!” Shippo yelled defensively.
 
“Then why does Kagome look so sad? What did you say to her twerp?” Inuyasha demanded growing angry.
 
“He didn't say anything Inuyasha. I guess I'm just stressed out about everything that's going on right now,” Kagome stated.
 
“Yeah! So don't blame me for causing any problems!” Shippo said. Kagome laughed and patted Shippo's head.
 
“I thought you were going to the `other world'?” Kagome asked.
 
“I see how it is. You don't want me around anymore.”
 
“Yeah that's exactly how it is. Shippo is much more adorable and nicer than you are.”
 
Shippo stuck out his tongue at Inuyasha and hugged Kagome. “Don't you have somewhere else to be?” Inuyasha asked.
 
“Don't be so mean to him! I have classes today so I don't know what you guys are going to be doing, but you guys need to stay away from me when I'm at school,” Kagome ordered.
 
“What if Naraku shows up again?” Inuyasha asked.
 
“I think I can handle myself for a day. As you said before he won't eat me in a public place so I will just have to stay in a crowd.”
 
“What if-“ Inuyasha was cut off by Kagome putting her hand up.
 
“No what ifs. Why don't you do that thing where you are in my head? Would that make you feel better?”
 
Inuyasha just nodded and Kagome smiled. “Well I have to go get dressed! We can go out and play in a park until my classes start. Would you like that Shippo?”
 
“Yeah! I've always wanted to explore the human world!” Shippo smiled excitedly.
 
“Okay you two wait here. I'll be back.”

Inuyasha watched Kagome push Shippo on the swings. Shippo was laughing happily yelling to go higher and higher.
 
A woman walked up to Inuyasha smiling sweetly. “What's a guy like you doing out here alone?”
 
“Nothing, just watching over that boy over there,” Inuyasha stated not knowing why this woman was talking to him.
 
“Is he your son?”
 
“No, he's my cousin.”
 
“He's cute. Who's that girl with him?” Inuyasha looked over at the woman in confusion. Why was she asking so much about him?
 
Kagome walked over to them carrying Shippo. “I'm taking Shippo to get some ice cream. Can he eat that stuff?”
 
“I don't know what that is, but it couldn't hurt. Can I go with you?” Inuyasha asked wanting to get away from this curious woman.
 
“Sure let's go,” Kagome smiled and put Shippo on the ground. She grabbed Shippo's hand and began walking.
 
“Why are you holding his hand like that?” Inuyasha asked.
 
“That's what adults do when around little kids. It's so they don't run off I guess,” Kagome explained.
 
“But I'm not little! I'm probably older than you!” Shippo said.
 
“What?” Kagome asked confused.
 
“It's true. Demons mature very slowly. About every twenty years they will transform into bigger forms until they reach their mature point and they stop aging all together,” Inuyasha explained.
 
“That's amazing. After we do get ice cream I have to go to class, but if you want we can go to lunch and I'll only eat if you guys don't eat,” Kagome suggested.
 
“Okay, what should we do until then?” Inuyasha asked Shippo.
 
“Let's go building hopping!” Shippo smiled.
 
“I don't like the sounds of that,” Kagome stated.
 
“Let's go now! Forget the ice cream!” Shippo laughed. Inuyasha smirked and swooped Kagome up and threw her on his back. She hung on his shoulders in the piggyback position and watched Shippo disappear. Only he didn't disappear he had jumped up at an incredible speed that made his seem like he disappeared.
 
Next Inuyasha leapt up holding onto Kagome's legs tightly so she wouldn't fall. He landed gracefully on a tall building roof.
 
“Oh my god! We are so high up,” Kagome whispered almost panicking.
 
“It's okay. Just don't look down. Close your eyes if you need to,” Inuyasha said reassuringly.
 
“Where are we going?” Kagome asked.
 
“To your university,” Inuyasha stated and took off from the roof, chasing after Shippo. Kagome gripped Inuyasha tightly and closed her eyes. She felt as if she were flying. It was an amazing feeling. If she didn't believe that demons were true then she believed now.

A/N: Hey guys! Sorry it took off so fast but it's going to slow down from here.
 
Also I have decided to make this a Kagome x Sesshomaru fiction. I want to try challenging myself with it so sorry to all the Inuyasha x Kagome fans. It's going to be a triangle so there will be some Inuyasha and Kagome romance, but know that it will be a generally Kagome and Sesshomaru fic!
 
Thanks!
