Inuyasha POV:

For the past month, everything has been pretty chill. Kagome babysits Sango's children while her and Miroku go out to exercise demons in nearby towns. After they get back, we all eat dinner. The only thing I get to look forward to each day is Kagome and I's alone time every night after supper. I usually try to take her some place new each time we go out in order to keep it interesting. When we arrive at our destination, I love being able hold her tightly against my chest so I can listen to her soft breathing. If it was possible... I'd choose to lie there with her forever, but unfortunately those damn villagers consider it unacceptable for an unmarried women to fall asleep next to a man, which sucks. Oh well, I wouldn't want the villagers thinking badly of Kagome.

Now that I think about it, maybe Kagome and I should just seal the deal and get married already for god's sake. What were we waiting for? She's my woman after all, what better way to make that permanent then getting married. I just don't know how to ask... I'm not so good at this kind of stuff. Dammit, I'll just have to think about it some other time. I'm late for supper.

Kagome POV:

After Inuyasha, Miroku, Sango, and I finished eating supper I walked outside to wash up in the stream before Inuyasha and I went on our little daily trip to the woods. We've made these trips an everyday thing, but I can't help getting even more excited each time. It seems like everyday is our first date. Once we're alone, Inuyasha is incredibly sweet to me. Kissing me softly while he pulls me up against his chest... running his fingers through my hair... playing with my thumb when he holds my hand. God, he's perfect. Just thinking about him made me blush.

After I ran my fingers through my hair and washed the taste of meat and rice from my mouth I began to walk over towards Inuyasha. He is standing outside next to Kaede and a few other villagers, who are doing chores, and most likely discussing whether I'm a suitable priestess to-be or not. I decide I'm going to pull a sneak attack on Inuyasha. I walk slowing and quietly towards him until I'm only a few feet away... better run for it now before he smells my sent.. which would ruin my fun. I start to sprint towards him. Seconds later I quickly jump onto his back, rapping my legs around his waste and kissing the back of his neck softly. "Ready to go?" I say. He pulls me off of him, which shocks me. "Inuyasha.. why di-" he cuts me off, "Kagome, what are you doing there's people around? This is no place for us to be acting like that." I feel the blood rush to my head, making me dizzy. Did he seriously just say that? "I don't know what you're saying Inuyasha.." I think I'm about to cry, forgetting that Kaede is still standing there until I hear her say "well I guess I'll leave ye two alone, have a good night." She walks away towards her small house. I'm still hurt from Inuyasha's words... How can he mean that? Is he embarrassed to be around me? I can't take his silence anymore, so I start to walk away, tears streaming down my face. Inuyasha calls out to me, "Wait Kagome! I'm sorry, that came out wrong. I just didn't want the villagers to get the wrong idea."

"Whatever Inuyasha!" I yell back as I'm walking away "everyone knows we're together so what's the problem? Never mind, don't bother saying anything, I'm going to bed, and oh yeah I almost forgot... SIT BOY!"

Inuyasha POV:

I fell face forward into the dirt. "God dammit Kagome" I whisper towards the ground harshly. I don't know why she's so upset, I tried to explain things, but that's beside the point. The real problem is the fact that my Kagome is hurt and it's all my fault... I feel awful. Kagome's happiness means the world to me and I can't bare to see her upset like that. Kagome makes me crazy. I love her so much that I would do anything she asked me to do...anything. Although that's something I would never admit to anybody else but her... it would make me feel weak. *Sigh* maybe that's my problem... me not willing to show my feelings towards her in public. I shouldn't care about feeling weak, I don't know why it bothers me. Miroku doesn't seem to have a hard time expressing his feelings in public, that's for sure. I wish I could be more like him in that aspect.

I still don't understand how Kagome could think I'm embarrassed of her though? Personally I think I'm the luckiest bastard on the planet, but showing affection towards someone in public is a sign of weakness... at least that's what Sesshomaru always told me, but since when should I believe my brother's advice? Personally I don't consider him to be a good roll model, but maybe if I listened to him more often he would accept me. Why should I care about his acceptance though? Surely Kagome's feelings mean more to me. I would rather be stabbed in the chest any day then see her cry.

So that's it I have to make it up to her somehow... I just can't stand her being mad at me much longer.

Suddenly it came to me! I just thought of the perfect way to win my woman back.

AN: Sorry... you guys are just gonna have to wait and see what Inuyasha does to win Kagome back. I think you guys will enjoy this. :)
