Previously: Inuyasha was caught spying on Kagome. Though neither he nore Miroku were paying attention to what they were saying, Duh.

Disclaimer: I once again to not own Inuyasha. Just so you know.

'Inuyasha…' Kagome said warningly.

He twitched from his dent in the dirt.

'I'm getting out of the water now. If you so much as twitch your head in this direction, I will sit you into oblivion.' She was obviously trying to calm herself, but the killing intent was still evident in her voice.

And Inuyasha picked up on it.

He had chanced fleeing the scene before and the bruises he'd gained as a result seemed a pleasant souvenir compared to what she might do if he tried it again.

Dammit. He could see know way out of this situation.

Kagome pulled herself out of the water and began to dry herself of. Muttering insults under her breath.

' Baka! Baka! Baka!!'

Then she froze.

She had been so furious with Inuyasha that she'd completely forgotten what she and Sango had been talking about. But now she was thinking clearly, a worrying thought crossed her mind.

How long had he been there?

Oh my God what if he heard?

Panic Stricken Kagome was practically hyper ventilating trying to come to the terms with the fact that Inuyasha had just heard her reveal the intimate details of her dream to Sango.

Sango was way ahead of her, her initial thought had been.

Maybe now the Ignorant Hanyou will finally make a move on Kagome.

But realizing he had already resorted to spying on them, what if he took another leaf out of Miroku's book and decided to start uncontrollably groping her.

Grrr… men.

After suggesting to Kagome that maybe she should stay away from Inuyasha for a while. The two went back to camp.

Sango proudly dragging Inuyasha by the ear.

'Ow! Ow! OOW! Sango! Let go!!!' Inuyasha whined.

To Inuyasha's relief they finally reached camp. Where Miroku was happily seated, eating an instant cup of ramen.

'Oh, Inuyasha! Where have you been?' Chimed Miroku innocently.

But Sango was no fool. She knew he had been there. Inuyasha didn't even know the way to the Hot Springs by himself. Someone had to lead him.

And she was willing to bet any money that that someone was him.

But she didn't need to, Shippo's hand signals from behind Miroku's back were a bit of a give away.

Her eyes narrowed, and the pleased look on Miroku's face vanished. She lunged at him and he sprung off leaping around as fast as he could. Anything to avoid another beating.

He was pretty sure he would be getting one from Inuyasha later too.

The dark aura Inuyasha was emitting proved him right.

It was a warm evening and the group decided it wouldn't matter if they spent another night under the stars.

Inuyasha and Kagome hadn't spoken since the incident at the hot springs. Kagome had been avoiding him ever since. She didn't want him to confront her about her feelings.

It didn't occur to her that he wasn't even aware of them.

Neither was she for that matter.

She felt uneasy about sleeping in such close proximity to Inuyasha. But she couldn't protest now. The sooner she slept the sooner she could forget all about it.

Inuyasha once again found himself the last awake. He didn't mind though he was having fun thinking of all the sick ways he could torture Miroku yet none seemed satisfying enough.

Let the punishment fit the crime he thought gleefully as he picture throwing Miroku into the hot springs full of Violent Feminist amn hating women. Who would no doubt beat him to death then save the carcus to do some kind of creepy ancient ritual on.

But the thought occurred to Inuyasha, that this was Miroku he was thinking about here. If those women were cute enough He'd probably consider it more a blessing that a punishment.

His eyes wandered around his surroundings he couldn't see much. His eyes fell on Kagome.

'…mmn' She mumbled.

He smiled to himself.

'nmm...But it's not like you haven't seen it before... Inuyasha….' She continued delicately.

Inuyasha didn't catch the first part. But she was never one to enunciate when she sleep talked.

She giggled a bit before rolling over onto her front, and Inuyasha was left wondering what she was dreaming about.

He made a mental note to ask her in the morning.

Maybe if he started the first conversation she'd forgive him a bit quicker.

But he never could be too sure with Kagome...

The next day wasn't much better than before, Whilst Kagome made a few Instant cups of ramen for the group. She and Inuyasha still weren't on speaking terms.

Inuyasha didn't like it like this. But apologizing wasn't his area of expertise.

Unable to bare the silence any longer, he spoke up.

'What have I seen before?' He blurted out.

He hadn't intended it to come out sounding so stupid. Or rushed. and he planned on it actually making sense. But it got her attention nonetheless.

'Huh?'

'Last night… You were -err- talking in your sleep.'

Imaged flooded into her head as she remember her dream.

'Inuyasha…' She breathed out.

She was holding his hand a guiding him to the hot springs where she began to undress.

He turned around respectfully. She walked up behind him and kissed him on the back of his neck.

He turned around and captured her lips with his.

'It's ok Inuyasha' she mumbled ' it's not like you haven't seen it before.'

Kagome blushed a violent shade of red.

Oh please no! I said that out loud??

Was her sub conscious doing this on purpose?

Was there someone up there that refused to give her a break?

'I – I err –' She laughed nervously.

Inuyasha, noticing the rising blush on her cheeks, stood up immediatley mistaking it for something more serious.

'Eh? Kagome? Are you ok?' He brought a hand to her cheek to feel the heat of her face. Worried she may have a fever.

More intimate images were flooding into her head uncontrollably.

Inuyasha held a hand to her cheek.

'I'll protect you Kagome' He whispered into her ear before kissing her, only this time it was more passionate.

She clung to him. Her heart beat was rising. Her hands slowly rose up to his neck wear they began playfully twiddling his hair.

His hangs gripped her waist pulling her forward. Closer.

She couldn't think straight. He was so close to her. She held her breath unable to separate dream from reality.

Her thoughts merged together and Inuyasha seemed to be everywhere at once.

Then she passed out.

When she awoke she was in Kaede's hut. Sango was sitting not to far from her. No one else was in the room.

'My, my,' Sango taunted. 'Do reveal a lot in your sleep don't you.' She smirked.

Kagome groaned and held her head in her hands.

'What did I say?'

Oh god please let it be something insignificant.

'Nothing I just thought I'd watch you squirm for a bit' she giggled. Then immediately stopped when she noticed the cold look on Kagome's face.

'It's not funny! I can't stop thinking about him! What do I do Sango?!' She whined.

'Don't worry. All girls dream about the guy they're crushing on at some point! They come and go. I wouldn't worry about it too much.'

Kagome raised an eyebrow.

'So… Who've you been dreaming about then?' She prodded curiously, as if it wasn't obvious.

Sango suddenly looked up a blush gracing her features.

'I knew it! You like Miroku! You've been holding out on me!'

'Only because I thought you were doing the same to me! I didn't realise you were actually stupid enough not to realise you liked Inuyasha!' She shot back defensively.

'I don't like Inuyasha!' Kagome yelled back defiantly.

'Then I don't like Miroku.' Sango pointed out calmly.

She knew Kagome had feelings for Inuyasha , she also knew Inuyasha was just as stupid as Kagome, and it could take him just as long if not longer to notice.

If they weren't going to do something about it themselves. She was just going to have to do it for them.

She left Kagome to sleep in peace, a small mischievous smile crept upon her lips as she shut the door behind her.
