Summery: She couldn't resist... it seemed so inviting

Disclaimer: You wouldn't want to sue me, would you? I mean... even if I did claim to own Inuyasha... would you even take the trouble?

Spoiler Warning: There really isn't much of a spoiler warning here.. just the usual... know the names... it's just a drabble anyway.

Kagome sat up late... just watching.

It looked so inviting... she knew that she shouldn't.

If only she could touch... she snatched her hand away and reprimanded herself harshly.

She knew if she did Miroku would tease come morning. Even though Shippo might not understand the full extent.. he'd tease too.

Her hands itched. Oh! She wanted this so bad!

She tried to close her eyes and forget it... as if trying would help.

Oh, mother, Kagome thought anxiously towards her mother from whom she was separated by many years. What does one do in this situation? Surely you must understand this longing!

Kagome's brow wrinkled... maybe just a little?

A little will turn into a lot and before you know it you'll have done it all, her mind nagged and she tried to tune it out.

But it'll be good to get it out of my system! I'll feel much better! She tried to reason with herself when she gave up on tuning herself out.

But how will he feel? Her mind countered.

Kagome sighed, that was right. He probably wouldn't feel too good after and by chain-reaction, neither would she.

Was a few minutes of happiness worth all that followed?

Yes. Kagome smiled and gave into her immense desire.

Inuyasha woke up the next morning, his hair full of braids.
