"Forgive Me"

"I'm home momma" Kagome shouted although she received no response. She shrugged her shoulders and headed up to her room. There she found her mother sitting on her bed, gazing at a photo album. Upon closer inspection she found it was pictures of when she was a kid, when her father was still alive, and they were all happy. She walked slowly toward her bed, sitting close to her mother, who was silently crying, tears falling down her face, landing on the plastic covers. "What happened Kagome? What happened to the innocent child that wanted to take things slow? What happened to us, we used to tell each other everything, and now you won't even let me in your life. What is with all the anger?"

It was then that Kagome had realized how badly she had been treating her mother. She now realized how fragile and weak her bond with her mother had become, and it was all her fault. Tears welled in her eyes, and Kagome clutched her mother. "I sorry, I'm just so sorry. Everything was happening so fast, I had no idea how to control it all. I just let all my feelings out, not caring who I was hurting. I'm just so sorry momma. How can you ever forgive me?" Kagome sobbed on her mothers chest, finally letting the dam break loose, letting all the pain, suffering, and anger flow out of her. Twenty minutes later Kagome was lying on her bed sleeping. Mrs. Higurashi softly swept the bangs out of Kagome's face and softly spoke to her.

"I forgive you because I love you. I love you because you are my daughter. I know you are grown up, but at least let me help you when you're in pain. You don't always have to do it alone because I'll always help you. Remember that I'll always love you." After a moment she plated a soft but loving kiss on her forehead, and went to fix dinner for Souta.

A soft smile spread across Kagome face and she knew she was still loved and forgiven. That was all that was important to her, that her mother loved her. Sure it would hard letting her back into her life and telling her what was going on, but in the end, it would make their bond stronger. With happy thoughts of being truly forgiven and loved Kagome drifted off into dreamland, where she dreamed of happy time, when it was just her, her mother and father, and a baby Souta.

(Back to Koga, and part 1 of the evilness.)

Koga woke up to water splashing all over his face, his first thought being, `What the hell happened?' Either the man that threw the water on him understood his confusion, or he had voiced his thoughts without realizing it.

"Inuyasha must have hit you harder than I thought. I still can't believe he got a clean hit on you. It looked like you had a perfect guard."

"Inuyasha hit me..."

"Ya, knocked you at least a foot in the air too. You were unconscious before you hit the ground."

"So that Dog-Shit won the bet, no fucking way."

Pissed off beyond all belief Koga stormed to his locker to change. `This week is gonna be hell. Kami-sama only knows what I'm going to have to do. I have to find some way to blackmail him back. I can't go around school acting as his slave, it would kill my rep, and I would be the laughing stock of the entire school and that is so NOT going to happen.' Walking out of the gym, bag in hand his retribution arrived across the street. Hojo. `Hmm, this would be the ultimate insult to that stupid Hanyou. Stealing his woman, and now I have an excuse to break Hojo and Kagome up. Well at least get them into a major argument, as I know Hojo hates that stupid Hanyou as much as I do. Then when they fight, I just step in and sweep Kagome off the floor and into my arms. Man, I surprise myself with my own genius.'

Koga shouted as he walked across the street "Yo Hojo!"

Koga was met with glaring eyes, as would be expected as he had tried multiple times to steal Kagome away, not caring if Hojo was there or not.

"What do you want Koga?" Hojo demanded.

"Look, this I'm not here to pick a fight with you. I actually have some info on Inuyasha and Kagome that you'd like to know. But if you don't want to hear it..."

Koga said as he turned to walk away.

"Sorry. It's just that you've tried to steal Kagome away from me for a long time now. Guess that makes me kind of jumpy just to see you. So, what's this news you have?"

Koga grinned inwardly, like sheep to the slaughter. "Oh, so now you're interested. Well, since you're such a nice guy, I guess I can tell you. That is if you really want to know."

"Just spit it out already!" Hojo practically shouted.

Koga just shrugged "It was nothing really. Just a small kiss between them. Nothing really major. You HAVE gone farther than kissing her right?"

Hojo's face went bone-white, "No, she would never..."

"Why would I lie? I need you to take care of Kagome. No one should ever lower themselves to touch such trash, especially a sexy girl like Kagome. You take care of her, and I'll deal with that trash Hanyou, since you're no match for him. That way, we're both happy."

Smirking, Hojo replied back, "I'll let you deal with him for now, since he made a fool of you in school, but don't get used to me helping you." With that he walked away, heading home head bowed in thought, trying to decide how best to approach Kagome, wanting to find out if Inuyasha forced him upon her or if she was willing. He had already made a mistake that almost cost them their relationship once, and he didn't want to make the same mistake twice as hadn't even got to fuck her yet.

````````````````````

Kagome woke up from a small hand gently pushing on her shoulder. "Kagome dinner's ready, time to get up."

She peaked an eye and saw Souta, and rolled over and tried to ignore him and return to her blissful nap. "Go away Souta" Kagome groaned. Happy that she heard footsteps leading away from her and the door shut, she happily returned to her dreams.

Souta returned with a grin on his face. `Hehe, now that I asked nicely I can't get yelled at. Now all I got to do is be careful.' He slowly opened the door careful not to make a sound and tip-toed towards the bed. Slowly and carefully, as to not wake Kagome again he slightly lowered the covers below her shirts neckline. Grabbing a handful of ice from the mug he set on the floor, he used his other hand to quickly grab her shirt and throw the ice down.

Kagome woke with a shriek and screaming "AH GOD! That's COLD! COLD!!!!!!" as freezing cold flowed down her entire body. Spying Souta laughing as he darted out of her room and slamming the door behind him to buy him time, she screamed, "SOUTA!!!!!! You better be running because when I catch you!!!!!!!!" Grabbing the ice that was down her shirt, she chased after Souta preparing to pay him back. She found him hidden behind her mother, who had a look on her face that only mothers can do that seem to make your spine disappear and your organs liquefy.

"Kagome put the ice in the sink and go wash up for dinner. I think you might want to hurry, since I cooked something special for you tonight."

`Something special huh' Kagome thought taking in a deep breath trying to identify the food that was cooking, as well as control her temper. `There is only one thing that can smell that good. ODEN!' Kagome's mind went blank as the only thing registering was Oden.

Forty-Five minutes later Kagome leaned back on her chair, happy and content with a stomach full of Oden.

Mrs. Higurashi turned to look at Souta and gave him stern look, "Souta, its 8:30 and you have test tomorrow, go get your pajamas on and get in bed. Kagome and I will handle the dishes. Jii-san why don't you head off to bed too, you look tired as well." Figuring that his daughter wanted to talk to Kagome alone, he headed off to his room. Following his Jii-san's exampled he headed off to bed as he figured Kagome was in troubled.

Kagome knew what was going on and didn't like it. Her mother had given her time, even though it was short, rest, and good food to eat. Now she wanted to talk. Kagome stood up grabbed her dishes and headed toward the kitchen to wash them. Nothing was said until the table was cleaned. Mrs. Higurashi took her position as drying as Kagome did the washing.

"Did something happen with Inuyasha?" Mrs. Higurashi started.

Kagome sighed as she was in for a long story. "A lot of things happened today momma. I almost kissed Inuyasha, I finally said out loud what I thought of Hojo, I acted on what I said, I realized what I mean to Inuyasha, Inuyasha steals my diary and displays some of it to the class, then he says he's gonna sell it. Then Sango drags everything out of me. I just feel so lost. Everything happened so quickly today, I didn't know what to do, so I settled with making my boyfriend happy, which seemed like the easiest thing to do at the time. I was really hurting at the time, and when I was with Hojo he made me feel loved and needed, which is what I really needed right then."

Mrs. Higurashi paused for a moment, confused. "Why would he take your diary, he seemed like such a gentleman?"

"Uh momma, you don't know half the stuff he does. But I do feel bad for him. He has no friends, even though he try's not to make any and is very depressed. He's made fun of because he's a Hanyou, and because of that he doesn't trust anyone. I had gained a little because I wanted to be his friend, but I said some mean stuff to him when I was angry, and he took it seriously. That was his way of paying me back. When I apologized, we were standing in front of each other. Then when he apologized I was so surprised, he had such a weird look in his eyes. When I saw that look it was like everything faded except him and we would have kissed, if it wasn't for Sango calling me. She saw what was happening and yelled at me for cheating on Hojo. I had no idea what her problem was or why she was so angry but we discussed the relationship between Hojo and I. I told her that I don't truly love him, but I wanted to be his girlfriend." Kagome paused then blushed profusely. With a quite voice she told her mother "If we're still happy and together in college, if he asks me to marry him, I would definitely say yes though."

Mrs. Higurashi eyes widen in surprise. "Do you think you would be happy with him in 10 years, 20 years? What is he to you now?"

Kagome paused a minute, and thought the question over. "I think I would be. I know he's a good person, and that he isn't after my body. I mean we have been together for 2 and a half years and today was the farthest we have taken, and he hasn't complained or tried anything. He makes me feel loved, and would do anything for me." She paused for a minute. "The only thing I don't like is that he is a little boring. But with things like what happened today, I'm sure it will get better."

Mrs. Higurashi stopped her daughter, not wanting this to go any farther, realizing her daughter was making the same mistakes as she did. She was basing and advancing her relationship on lust and sex. That would never last. Tears formed in her eyes, as she never expected this from her sweet innocent daughter. She knew Hojo wouldn't make her happy. Kagome had a fiery spirit that was being tamed by Hojo. Yes they had introduced something knew to their relationship, but that was all. After a while Kagome would be bored when they could take it no father. In response she would start to rebel to get something interesting to happen. Fights after fights would lead to divorce which would devastate her as it did to me. `I have to end this now.' Finishing the last of the dishes, she asked Kagome, "Lets head outside, as what I'm about to tell you I don't want anyone else to hear, especially little boys that need to get to bed." A mad dashing was heard as the door slammed to Souta's room.

Outside they sat on the bench made for tourist visiting the shrine. "Kagome, do you know why you don't have a father."

Not even expecting this question, she shook her head. "I thought you said he died."

"No honey, I told you that because you would never understand when you were younger. But now I see you making the same mistakes that I did, and I don't want you turning out like me. Your father and I were like you and Hojo. He was a sweet guy, and he charmed me over. He brought flowers every once in a while, small trinkets and gifts when I was down, and we were all lovey dovey. It was really nice for a long while and I was really content and happy for about 2 years." A pause. "Kagome I have a serious question for you. Where do you think you got your personality traits from? Your eagerness to win an argument, fiery spirit things like that."

"Well I always thought it came from dad. You're always so kind and gentle."

Small giggles could be heard coming from the older Higurashi. "When I'm really angry what am I like, do I remind you of anyone?"

Kagome paused to think about it. `You never want to get on momma's bad side. She yells really loud and gets this look him her eyes, and always wins...'

Very quietly she realized somewhat where this subject was going. "Myself."

"Yes Kagome. I was like you until I met your father."

"Then why are you like the way you are?"

"That comes from years of practice." Pause. "He wants to change you. Have you noticed you have become softer, more submitting, and not as fiery as before you met him? More like me?" Not waiting for an answer she continued. "I know you starting to get bored with him, he's not interesting you enough, but you stay with him because he loves you, and is kind to you. You also get soft heart from you father. When it comes to things like that, you are far more patient than I was. I'm telling you now, your adding sex to your relationship. I know you didn't go that far yet, but it will be soon, I can tell from your eyes that you enjoyed this afternoon. Sex is gonna raise it, to your relationship, gonna make it interesting for a while, but your going to get bored again. The next step would be kids, as you're gonna hope that it will solve your problems. For a while it will. Then the fights are gonna start ranging everywhere on how you are gonna support them, how your bored with it. They're gonna get worse, and you wont be able to take it anymore, and file a divorce. He's not gonna take the child, claming that it was your idea to have children and he never wanted any. Then your gonna be all alone, with children to raise. You think the relationship failed because of yourself, that you should have been more patient, not as demanding, and content with what you had. It will destroy you as it did me. I was lucky to have Jii-san to help me out. You have me and I will always help you out. But Kagome don't follow in my footsteps please. Just think about it some more for me." Mrs. Higurashi was crying now, reliving her childhood, all the wounds that she thought had healed ripped open and were bleeding all over.

Kagome sat there, crying not believing her mother felt all the same thing she did. What was worse was she had almost made the same mistakes she did. She turned to find her mother blankly staring into the distance, eyes vacant and full of pain. Unable to take it any longer, she hugged and clung to her mother as they both cried until their tears dried. Half an hour later Mrs. Higurashi spoke quietly in Kagome ear.

"You should really solve your problems with Inuyasha. He really is a nice kid. He just has a lot of pain and you have to remember that. You have to be patient with him if you want to be his friend."

"I know momma, I know."

"Lets head inside, it's getting cold out here, and I don't want you catching a cold."

"Ok"

Kagome laid in her bed all night thinking about her mother, father, Hojo, and Inuyasha.

Reader Review's

Kimitoshi - Sigh, if that what you wanna believe then be my guest, I can't change your opinion. Just know that I'm happy with 2-3 reviewers per chapter, and I really don't expect much. The reason for the emails, was from a person who said I should email when I came out with a new chapter because they never knew I had posted new chapters. While I was at it, I emailed everyone who had reviewed. Anyway, thanks for constantly reviewing, and please wait a while longer as the Inuyasha/Kagome will start soon.

Alejandra - Yay, another new reader. Glad you enjoyed, and hope you like this chapter too!

yasha21 - Sugoi, 2 new readers. Sigh, so do I but hey, they have been going out for 2 years, a hardcore make out is needed every once in a while right? Especially when tension is high? Anyway glad you liked it.

Rezol - Glad you're back! If you got comp troubles you can ask me. I'm a certified computer technician. Lol. You won't believe that my favorite character is Mrs. Higurashi! I think she's so easy to write for, and I love how she turned out.

Draechaeli - I hate Koga, he need to learn his place, and will learn it in this fic! Scared of stalkers, lol. No he's not thinking of Kagome as a replacement, but she thinks he is. He's just confused as to why he feels something for her. Of course Megu is gonna get btw them, as it's gonna make things interesting.
