Cookies
"Come on Inuyasha, just try one!" Kagome pleaded.
"Feh." The half demon turned away from her, closing his eyes in stubbornness.
"You truly do need a lesson in manners. The lady made these, and you won' even try one!" Miroku sighed, shaking his head. Inuyasha snapped.
"Of course not!" Inuyasha cried out in annoyance, whirling towards Kagome. "WHY in the SHARDS would I ever EAT something she MADE?"
He paused when he saw that Kagome was trembling and prepared for her to use the "S" word, but he was not prepared for what happened next. He stopped dead as Kagome raised her head, tears brimming in eyes that held more hurt then the anger he was so accustomed to seeing. "I…I'm sorry Inuyasha… I just thought…" Then she turned, tears flying as she ran, the basket of cookies tumbling to the ground where they lay, discarded.
"Now you've done it," Shippou growled at the dog demon. "Kagome!" he cried, running after her. Inuyasha blushed slightly. / Geeze…I didn't mean to make her cry… / Miroku strode past him, not sparing him a glance as he followed Shippou and Inuyasha was suddenly left alone. Slightly ashamed, he gazed at the upturned basket of cookies. Tentatively, as though it might explode, he picked one up, looking at it. He smiled slightly when he saw that she had shaped them into little figures. / This one kinda looks like Miroku…/ he thought, placing it back in the basket and crouching down to pick up another. / And this kinda looks like…/ he furrowed his brow, squinting at it then turned it around. 'It's Shippou!" he exclaimed suddenly, a fanged grin decking his face. "Then this next one is either Kagome or me." He said as he picked up one of the last two.
Studying it carefully, his fingers touched two little points on the head. "These are…dog ears…" he murmured. Looking closer, he could dimly make out the trim of his robes (For lack of better word …los sientos...) and tetsugaru.
"Inuyasha!" Shippou. Hastily, the half demon unceremoniously shoved all the cookies back into the basket and covered it with his kesa. The little fox demon bounded to a halt in front of his companion. "Where's Kagome?" Inuyasha asked indifferently while looking intently for the miko. "I couldn't stop her," Shippou said sadly. "She went home." Inuyasha sighed and looked away. / Stupid woman… / he thought sadly. Shippou gazed at him for a moment and noted the sad look on his face. "Why do you hate her so much?" he asked quietly. Inuyasha's head spun around. "Wha…?" "Why do you hate her so much?" he asked again. "I…don't hate her…he mumbled softly looking off into the distance. "Then why do you make her cry?" The dog demon gazed at him. "I have to go." He said suddenly. Shippou stood up but before he could speak, Inuyasha was gone. For a moment, Shippou did nothing, then he knelt down, looking at the picture Inuyasha had been drawing in the dirt. A picture that had been hastily crossed out.
