Kagome opened the door to her house and sighed as she thought of how she was complicating her life. She walked to her room and got out her diary. It was a present from the day InuYasha proposed to her. She flipped open the pages and began to write about the day's experience.

 

Kagome had almost finished writing everything down when she heard Kouga walk through the door. Quickly Kagome put the diary back and snuck into the living room to say hello.

 

Kouga was sitting on a couch in the living room. “I sent the papers in today, its almost complete.” Kouga began when he saw Kagome, “Pretty soon we'll be roommates, just like old times.”

 

Kagome forced a smile; she had too much on her mind to comprehend what he was saying. “I ordered a pizza earlier, I wasn't sure if you'd eaten.” Kouga thanked her, and nothing else happened. Every day seemed to drag on and on.

 

“How much will the tickets be to the concert?” Kouga tried to make small talk. He figured he would check it out; after all, it was his friend who got her the record deal.

 

“I'm not sure, but I have five free tickets and two backstage passes to give out, if you want one, its yours.”

 

“I just want a ticket, who all do you plan to bring to this?” Kouga asked as the doorbell rang. Kagome grabbed her purse and answered the door to pay for the pizza.

 

“You, Ayame, Mom, Souta, and his date. I'm not really sure about the backstage passes, mom plans to leave afterwards, Souta and Hitomi are going to get food, and Ayame is only going to be there for half of the thing, and I'm only doing a small portion.”

 

“Hey!” Kouga grabbed a slice of pepperoni pizza, “You are co-staring with Naraku, and he's playing just as many songs as you are.”

 

“True, I think I'm going to drive around for a bit.” Kagome grabbed two slices of pizza and her purse, and left.

 

Kagome drove around for a few hours when her cell phone rang. Kagome didn't even bother to check the caller id. “Hey,” Kagome put her blue tooth in and turned down the radio, “Kagome here, how may I help you?”

 

“You sound like a secretary.” InuYasha scoffed into the phone as he turned the stove off.

 

“Oh, InuYasha, how'd you get this number?” Kagome asked in surprise as she added the number into her phone at a stop sign. “Never mind, is there anything I can do for you?”

 

“Well, our last conversation was a little short. I heard you have a concert coming up. It's a surprise to be quite honest. Little Kags, the girl everyone thought would end up as a professional chef is a rising star.” InuYasha paused as Akira pulled on his pant leg in order to get InuYasha's attention. “Hang on, someone wants to talk.”

 

Kagome waited patiently until the familiar voice said hello. “Hi Akira, how have you been?”

 

“Fine.” He whispered.

 

“Well what are you doing right now?” Kagome tried to coax a few more words out of him.

 

“Talking, dad said you came by recently, you could have said hi.” Kagome noticed the resentment in his voice.

 

“Would you like me to come by to visit? Kagome looked around, she was in the old neighborhood and the house was only a few minutes away.

 

“You wouldn't anyway.” Akira stated matter-of-factly.

 

“I can be there soon if you want.” Akira didn't say anything, but Kagome could hear InuYasha tell Akira that she couldn't see him nodding. Kagome continued on her way to the house.

 

InuYasha took over the phone. “His bedtime is in an hour, I don't think you would make it in time.”

 

Kagome giggled, “Relax, I'm on Grail Dr. It won't take me long, besides, he was right, I never did talk to him the day I came over.”

 

“Fine. About your concert, Akira loves Naraku and I thought that since you were playing with him and all that maybe-“

 

“I have two backstage passes if you both would like.” She cut him off.

 

“Are you serious?”

 

“Its no problem.” Kagome parked the car and walked to the door.

 

InuYasha answered the knock on the door and let her in as he hung up the phone.

 

InuYasha led Kagome to the living room. “Nice shirt.” Akira wrinkled his nose as he looked up from the television to look at her.

 

Worried, Kagome looked down, her shirt wasn't as bad as most of the ones she owned. “If It's Called Tourist Season, Why Can't We Hunt Them?”

 

“Akira,” InuYasha sat down next to him, “This is Kagome, and Ayame told me you saw her at the reunion.”

 

“That concerns me how?” Akira watched as Kagome sat down on the couch across from the couch Akira himself was on.

 

“She's your mom.” InuYasha didn't think it would go well, but he did hope that Akira would be at least a little interested.

 

“I'm not calling her `mom'.”

 

“No one said you had to.” InuYasha stood up and made his way to the kitchen to finish the dishes. “She got us a backstage pass to see Naraku in concert.” InuYasha mentioned.

 

Akira's eyes lit up, but he forced himself to calm down. “Thanks.” He murmured. “How'd you get the tickets?”

 

“I'm performing with him at the concert.”

 

“So you're a plastic fake who stupid girls idolize? What a great role model.” Akira blurted out. His eyes went wide, “I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that.” Akira walked away and went to his room.

 

“I think he's sweeter over the phone.” Kagome walked towards the kitchen to help InuYasha out.

 

“Feh, its only because he's convinced government agents have our phone tapped. He's pretty smart for a seven-year-old.”

 

Kagome smiled sadly, “I can tell.”

 

“Don't worry about the comment from earlier, he's been attempting to figure anything bad about you, now he thinks he's found something.” InuYasha chuckled.

 

“He's entitled to think however he wants about me. I deserved it.”

 

“You know, his school play is tomorrow, if you want, it's at seven. They're doing Peter Pan and he's playing Captain Hook.”

 

Kagome smiled. She was determined to win his trust back.
