Chapter one//stuck with you

The morning had started out alright a slight chill was about the air that had stirred Inuyasha from his rather relaxed sleep he and Kagome had been on the road for a few day's investigating a rumor of a jewel shard which had turned out to be a dead end it had not seemed to bother kagome that much she seemed to be in good spirits and that made Inuyasha happy at least for the most part when they had stopped to make camp he was a little aggravated that they had to stop so early but he was not going to argue with kagome when she got tired and hungry so he reluctantly agreed to her request on a good meal and some thing to eat.

Now that he was awake he was still a little unwilling to wake up though the chill seemed to be that of an on coming storm so he figured that he should wake kagome up and let here know that they should get a little travel in before the storm caught up to them though he found it hard to do when he glanced down and noticed that she had moved and curled her self next to him to stay off the cold.

This of course made him blush slightly he just wished that she would done it before she went to sleep that way she would not have gotten cold at all but he was happy none the less.

He let out a yawn and stretched as he stood up he figured that before he woke her up that he would go out and get wood for the dieing embers that almost seemed to be begging for some thing more to burn before he walked away to complete what he had planned he heard a sigh from kagome and a rustling of a sleeping bag but she did not wake up.

After a few minutes he had the fire back to life and crackling with warmth he had also found a couple small rabbits that were now roasting over the fire he walked back over by the tree that he had fallen asleep by and sat next to kagome where he had been he reached over to give her a nudge and found that he was looking in to her sapphire blue eyes, oh so you are awake are you?

Yes, kagome sat up in her sleeping bag and stretched I have been awake since you got back form getting firewood and breakfast. Oh really? He asked, kagome turned to him and put her arms around his neck and gave him a hug he stiffened for a second and relaxed.

Thank you Inuyasha, for what? Kagome seemed to ignore the question and continued you know I don't tell you that often enough you know that you are always taking care of me and making sure that I am taken care of. Well kagome I swore that I would protect you and if that means getting fire wood and some thing to eat to keep you in good health than I am more than happy to do so you know that.

Well thank you any way. They both looked at each other and blushed a bit when they ate in silence.

Until inuyasha caught the sent of water on the air it was the sent of rain and electricity. Kagome we should really get moving there is a storm on the way and we don't want to be out in it. Your right the air was getting colder so kagome put on some Jeane's and a sweater to keep from getting cold or at least that was the hope of it any way. Combining the storm and the wind made it one that you wish you were in a house and not out side walking miles form no where.

inuyasha could tell that the rain was going to start to fall so he turned his attention to kagome that was holding tightly to his back as he ran at a steady pace but he was starting to look for shelter as he was going as they went by a canyon wall he noticed a cave in the wall that was up high on a cliff he stopped and took a longer look at it. What is the problem kagome asked? Well there is a cave up there and the rain is going to start any minute now and nether of us need to be out in it kagome nodded in agreement and in three leaps they were standing in the entrance of the cave.

after a few minutes inuyasha had gathered firewood and had the cave warmed with the somber light cast from the roaring fire kagome had all of her sleeping stuff set up but it was still mid after noon and she had gotten a good nights rest and was not tired so she decided that she would have a little Q and A with inuyasha he was currently poking at the fire with a stick and did some thing that she had to stifle a laugh one of the embers that he was poking at popped and he was showered in sparks.

He looked at kagome with a look of embaressment and said what are you laughing about? Aww come on that was funny and you know that dont try to play all tough with me i know better inuyasha did now that he thought about it he would have laughed at any one who would have had that happen to them and he smiled and said i guiess that you are right, with that he tossed the stick into the fire and walked over to kagome and sat down beside her she scooted up next to him and laied her head on his shoulder the wind and the storm raged just out side of there little sanctuary and they were both happy that they were not alone.
