Yes, another story! Yahoo! Lol anyway well this story isn't different, the unbelievable overdose of fluff (not you Sesshoumaru, the loving fluff), hurt feelings, love, anger, angst, fighting, you know, the usual. It's kind of similar to Betrayed, but ends and goes through different. But the plot is the same. : Cries: I'm not in it!

I'm writing this while listening to Dance with the Devil by Breaking Benjamin. Enjoy!

He sat quietly, watching her dance around under the sakura petals. She was so beautiful, her cheeks rosy, and her face reflecting her joy. He wondered, wondered what she would act like if they were together…

He mentally slapped himself. He was thinking that way again. Shit. It always happened when he was watching her. She was too pure, to untainted to want him.

She turned to see him looking at her, and shouted, "Hey Inuyasha! Come down from there and enjoy the day with us!"

He sighed. He was comfortable, but didn't want to ruin her mood, so he jumped down from his perch in Goshinboku, (sp? Tell me if so!) landing next to her. She smiled.

He loved it when Kagome smiled. She was more beautiful, if that was even possible, than ever. He once again let his mind wander, and felt his heart sting and ache when he remembered that she didn't need him, and he didn't deserve her.

"Something wrong Inuyasha?" Kagome said, looking worriedly at the morose look on the hanyou's face.

He snapped out of his sad trance at her words. "Wha-? Oh, I'm fine Kagome." He said.

"You're not. Tell me what's wrong, please."

"There's nothing wrong, Kagome!" He snapped.

She looked a little hurt, but at least she dropped the subject.

MANY HOURS LATER…

Everyone, not including Inuyasha, who was, as usual, sitting in one of the tall trees, was huddled around the fire, searching for warmth. Kilala was helping too by allowing Shippo and Kagome to snuggle against her.

Inuyasha watched them from his perch and wished that Kagome were snuggling into his chest instead of Kilala.

Damn, why do I keep thinking like that? Inuyasha mentally yelled. He sighed. If only his thoughts and hopes could be carried out…

Deciding that she wouldn't mind, he leapt down and scooped her up before returning to his perch.

THE NEXT MORNING… (WHO IN THE HELL MAKES THESE FUCKING TIME CARDS?!)

Kagome's eyes opened slowly. She was against something warm and comfortable, and could tell that it wasn't Kilala because it wasn't furry.

Turning slightly, she came face-to-face with a peaceful-looking hanyou. She wanted to yell in surprise, but he seemed to be asleep, and it was comfortable. She fell asleep again, wondering how on earth she got up here in the first place.

WITH INUYASHA… (I SWEAR TO GOD…THESE CARDS JUST SUCK!)

Inuyasha's eyes opened slowly. He looked down, and saw Kagome sleeping peacefully in his lap. He inwardly groaned; he was going to pay once she wakes.

He tried to ignore his dread of the pain he'd go through once she awoke, and was so absorbed in his thoughts that he didn't notice something stroking the covered muscles of his chest.

Finally noticing, he looked down and saw Kagome nuzzling his collarbone while stroking his chest.

"Ka-Kagome?" Inuyasha said, trying to ignore the waves of pleasure running through his body.

Kagome looked up. She smiled softly. "Hey Inuyasha…Do you know how I got up here in the first place?" she asked.

He blushed ten shades of red before stuttering out, "We-well, I-I ki-kinda br-brought you up h-here…"

She stared at him. "Why?"

"I-I-I dunno… I just th-thought y-you'd b-be more c-comfort-table…"

She smiled. "That was kind of you. I don't want to think about what Miroku will say if he sees us like this, though."

He swiftly bolted upward and, carrying a stunned Kagome in his arms, he leapt to the ground. "I don't either." He said. "Here, before anything gets awkward." He let go of her and she walked over to her backpack, pulling some bowls of ramen out.

"Mmmm…ramen." He muttered, walking over to her. He stole a glance over at Shippo, who was sleeping peacefully.

"If that runt steals my ramen, I'll pound him into the ground." He said.

"You'd better not, or I'll sit you so much the only thing we would see is a hole in the earth." Kagome warned, pointing at the beads around his neck menacingly for emphasis.

Inuyasha cringed, ears pinned against his head. From her angle, Kagome could not see his ears at all and said, "Hey, where did those cute ears go?"

Inuyasha gave her his best 'wtf' face.

Seeing the others waking up, he crossed his arms and said, "You'd better hurry up with that ramen, wench. The others are getting up."

"Oh, Inuyaashaa…"

"Uh, yes?"

"Sit."

HA I just HAD to put the 'sit' at the end! Lol well, firebug29, if you're reading this, please tell me if this story is better than Betrayed or not. I'll start editing your chapters now ok well I will update soon:)
