Tam: but if I did own him... *evil grin*

Inuyasha: *backs away* eh..?

It was really dark in the wilderness. A nice cool breeze flew past the group that was walking quietly through a path in the forest. The leafs on the slender trees made little rustling noises and so did the grass. Everyone was mostly tired after their long day of walking and fighting simple demons that had come in the way, well except for Inuyasha of course. That hanyou was never tired unless he was wounded or it was his night of becoming a human.

"We should set up a camp here." Suggested Miroku with a deep breath in and then let out a sigh. The two girls, kagome and sango, and shippo all nodded in agreement. Inuyasha who led the group made a quiet 'feh' with his arms crossed over his chest and sat silently under a tree.

It seemed to be, that other travers have camped in the spot because there were already logs that were slightly burnt in a position of a fire. With that, Miroku grinned softly and started the fire. On with the two women, they were both setting down sleeping bags that kagome had brought from her own time. As always kagome set one down for inuyasha, she always thought 'just In case if his butt becomes numb or something.. I leave this for him..'. Kagome glanced at the hanyou and noticed he was staring at her. She blinked and looked back down at the sleeping bag with a faint pink blush rushing to her cheeks. Inuyasha shrugged and stared into the fire miroku had started.

After awhile of discussing things, the group all finally headed back into bed, except for two, Inuyasha and kagome. Inuyasha always watched kagome's back as she laid on her sleeping bag. He always did, but at a certain time he'd fall into a deep slumber and finally he did. Kagome always sensed a feeling of him being asleep. It was like someone was telling her that he was.

Slowly kagome sat up quietly, trying hard not to make the sheets make ruffling noises as she moved. She slowly crawled out and looked at each companion that slept quietly with a quiet snore coming from the little kitsune. 'Ah!' Kagome remembered that shippo was still in her arms sleeping. She gently laid him down in her spot and he shifted which made kagome gasp to herself. Hoping he wouldn't wake, he didn't. She felt relieved and quietly got up onto her bare feet. Kagome quickly put on her brown school shoes by sliding her feet easily into them, one by one and tip toed away.

This isn't the first time kagome left, she actually left the group at this time of night almost every night. Why did she leave? Well it's from her stressed out and depressing mind going crazy about inuyasha who always followed that damned dead miko and privately having a 'moment' with her.

Kagome usually found a rock to sit on and think about everything. While she thought she always encountered Naraku. 'Yes I know, surprising eh?' Kagome thought to herself. But she actually didn't mind the man, after encountering him all those nights kagome thought about convincing her group into only taking the jewel shards for ourselves and let Naraku be. Because really, naraku isn't who you really thought of as the evil mastermind of destroying the world, he's actually kind of nice. Yes, he has a short temper but he always tried his best to keep it down, which he usually failed.

As Naraku approached the girl, he silently sat down beside her, with the fabric of his kimono softly gliding behind him on the grass. Kagome smiled sadly while she stared her hands that were cupped together on her knees.

"I'm sorry for always dragging you into this love quarrel.." She chuckled sadly and shook her head. "I know, you must be thinking like I am. It's pointless to be upset over him.." Naraku shook his head.

"I don't think it's pointless.." He replied with a monotoned voice, that was deep and slow. His voice still made goosebumps go down kagome's back but she ignored it. "I think it's nice.. Inuyasha should realize how special he is to you.." Naraku said. As he talked, he suddenly thought of a plan that might work. 'This onigumo.. His humanity will never disappeared, and I accepted that fact. Now that I am attracted to this miko, I am already meeting her during the nights. Also I have her trust.. I can use this against that annoying disgraceful hanyou. And have her for myself..' He grinned on the inside, but on the outside he still made a calm face. "Kagome.."

Kagome slightly flinched and glanced at him. "Ah, hai?" He gently placed his hand atop both of hers that were cupped, and then his other under her hands. He gently raised them

Close to his face. Kagome was surprised, and still

Not being used to his kindness towards her, she thought he would bite her or something.

"Don't worry.." He grinned softly and then gave a gentle peck on her hand after he put his hand that was on top, under hers. Kagome was surprised but then smiled softly as her cheeks became a slightly faint pink. "I wish the best for you, miko.." He whispered softly, his every breath and every word bouncing off of her soft, small, fragile hand. He gently placed her hands back on her lap and tried his best to give her a soft smile then just a grin. He stood up as she smiled softly at her. Kagome was surprised by the smile, it was rather quite handsome. 'Is he.. Smiling?' She asked herself. She smiled back, feeling a bit better about herself for some reason.

"Where are you going?" She asked innocently. For some reason she didn't want this moment to end. She actually enjoyed it much more than she's expected to.

"I must tend to some arrangements and other meetings.." Naraku sighed. His sigh was a tired one which made kagome a bit concerned. She nodded, for not wanting to keep him from his duties. He waved a farewell and walked into a cloud of miasma, slowly disappearing.

Kagome glanced down at her hands as she was still blushing a faint pink. She breathed softly then silently stood up. Noticing that the morning sun was rising, she had to hurry back. 'Wow time sure flies by..' She thought as she started walking back to the camp. Luckily to her thought, everyone was still 'sleeping'. She sat down on one of the logs around the fire silently with a quiet 'thud'.

"And were you the whole night, Wench?" A familiar voice asked. Yes, it was Inuyasha who asked. Kagome was shocked that he was awake. Suddenly everyone else in the group sat up, seeming that they have woken up already a while ago. They all narrowed their eyes at her, curious and concerned. Kagome shook slightly and stuttered.

"I.. I.. Um.. Err.." She looked down at her knees, and felt her cheek. Obviously they were still pink, from the warmth she felt. 'Oh no..' She thought.
