Hey,everybody thanks 4 the reviews you've been giving me and I won't waste too much time talking to u so here is a highlight if you're wondering if Naraku is going to show up with the rest of the crew.

Kagome's family will not be in this along with the 3 annoying friends she has in school, they are too noisy and I don't like them, plus they don't really fit in anywhere yet. Naraku will be appearing in later chapters, Houjo and Kouga will appear later as well. That's all, here is the chapter.

Chapter 6

Why she won't talk!

“No… I'll never give it to you, you know this is my favorite coat, so stop asking me” yelled Inuyasha.

“Oh come on, you have like…5 other coats that are the same as this one” stated Sango.

“So hand that over and get another one to wear.” ordered Ayame. They stepped threateningly towards him, ready to force it off him if necessary.

“Why then, if I could just give her one of my spares... why?” shouted Inuyasha.

“It's because that one is warm and it's freezing outside so hand that one over to Kagome so she won't be cold” replied Sango.

“Oh…well I guess I could do that” said Inuyasha. He looked at Kagome for the first time since the argument; she was staring at them with wide eyes and scared of all three of them.

“Sorry Kagome, if we scared you, it didn't involve you, only your outfit, which looks absolutely fine.” apologized Inuyasha.

Kagome only nodded. This struck Sango and Ayame as odd. Kagome had talked with them in the closet while they were giving her complements and helping her out with getting on the clothes. Even though they weren't full sentences or long words, it was considered talking.

“Are you ok Kagome?” Sango asked. Inuyasha and Kagome just looked at her in confusion. Both saw confusion in both Ayame and Sango's faces.

“What are you talking about Sango, she looks fine.” said Inuyasha.

“What are you talking about, she isn't talking at all” replied Ayame.

“She doesn't talk” stated Inuyasha. Looking at Kagome with a puzzled gaze.

“What do you mean; she was talking to us in the closet while you were asleep out here!” replied Ayame.

“She talked to you, but not to me. Wait did she write down on paper or use hand signals?” asked Inuyasha. Kagome was starting to fidget and look really nervous in the corner of Sango's bedroom near the closet, she had moved there during the argument.

“Neither, she talked with actual words, not any of the crap you just told us she does around you” said Ayame.

“Well, why does she talk to you and not to me?” asked Inuyasha.

“How the hell should we know?” they yelled.

“Grr” growled Inuyasha. He turned to Kagome and moved towards her in a very threatening manner. It scared her so much to see her savior so mad at her. It looked just like how all of her guardians had been, but for a different reason. She cowered against the wall.

“Kagome, is it true you talked to Sango and Ayame?” Inuyasha asked in a stern and quiet voice that demanded nothing but the truth.

Kagome gulped and nodded slowly, looking to Sango and Ayame for any help they could give. Her scent was covered only in pure fear of Inuyasha. It hurt him to see her so scared, but he needed to find out why she won't talk to him.

“Why won't you talk to me?” asked Inuyasha. The anger gone from his face to be replaced with hurt. His eyes softened upon seeing Kagome still scared as a rabbit in a trap. He slowly walked towards her in a nonthreatening manner, with his hands up showing he was calm and wouldn't hurt her.

She motioned for Sango and Ayame to come to her. When they were sitting next to Kagome, she signaled for them to turn their heads so she could whisper in their ears.

“Mumble, mumble, mumble, mumble, men mumble, mumble, trust mumble, mumble, mumble, did, mumble, mumble” was all Inuyasha heard of Kagome's explanation. Sango and Ayame's faces had changed from concerned to surprise to pity to understanding.

When Kagome was done, the two housemates got up from their places and walked over to Inuyasha with concerned faces.

“She said that when she lived with any of her guardians, the foster dad would do really mean things to her, and when she tried to speak she would get into trouble” started Sango.

“She doesn't trust men very much. It doesn't mean she doesn't trust you, its just she is being careful on what she does” continued Ayame. Trying to reassure him after seeing his face fill with hurt when she said Kagome didn't trust men.

“The women didn't harm her in any way, but they still didn't do much to help her; so it's hard for her to speak to us, not knowing if we will help her or not when she does need us” Sango said.

“She does trust you not to DO anything, but not enough to talk to you” stated Ayame.

“What do you mean by DO Ayame? Did you mean they sexually harassed her or raped her?” Inuyasha asked with disgust in his voice.

After a few words with Kagome, they got the answer.” They did do things to her, but not sex. They never got the chance to do that since the wives didn't like their husbands doing anything like that to her. They could get reported so they didn't do anything, thankfully” Sango said.

“That's disgusting to go as low as to do things to a girl, in their care as well” Inuyasha growled. He looked at Kagome with a sad and understanding look on his face. He slowly went over to her and sat down. Sango and Ayame left to give them privacy.

“I'm sorry I got angry at you, but I didn't know what you had been through. I'm really sorry and even though I know this, it doesn't change my offer of you staying here, unless you want to leave” Inuyasha said.

(So sweet of him! He gets a reward that he will never forget for doing something so nice to Kagome.)

Kagome was not only surprised he would keep her with him, but also happy he understood and still wanted her around. She lunged at him from her spot and knocked him down on his back.

“Hahaha, your welcome!” Inuyasha said. He noticed tears in her eyes but she dug her head in his chest in order to hide them from him.

“Come on, don't cry” begged Inuyasha. Kagome just shook her head and smiled, telling him in her own way that she was crying happy tears.

“So do you still want to go out with Sango and Ayame to the mall or what?” asked Inuyasha. A smile and a hug was his answer.

“Good, I'll tell them then” Inuyasha moved to go tell the girls to get ready but Kagome stopped him with her handholding on to his coat.

“Oh yeah, here you need the coat” Inuyasha handed her his coat and placing it on her shoulders. She shook her head to say that wasn't what she had meant.

“What did you want then?” he asked. Kagome got on her knees and took his face in her hands. Inuyasha's heartbeat sped up 3 times its normal beat.

`She's…she's…Oh God she is going to kiss me… oh kami what did I do to deserve such a treat?' thought Inuyasha. Waiting for the wondrous gift to happen, she inched closer to his face. Closer, closer, peck on the cheek.

`Yes she kissed me…thank you kami… wait she kissed me on the cheek. On the cheek…come on, couldn't it have been on the lips?” Inuyasha thought.

Kagome moved away with a blush on her cheeks. She got up with his coat on her shoulders and went to see where Sango and Ayame had gone, thinking that next time she would get up enough courage to kiss him on the lips.

Whoop, Whoop! Man that took me a while to do. Inuyasha waskissed by Kagome on the CHEEK! I would have done it on the lips but Kagome doesn't trust him enough remember.
