Hanyou Village Chapter 3- "Glad we Met"

"Alright, it is about lunch time so we will move on to the dining area." Naomi said as she walked back towards the village.

"Everyone eats in the same place?" Sango asked.

"Yes, it helps us from making everyone have to trade for food. That is just annoying and that's what makes poverty." She explained as they made it back into the town. "This right here is the dining area. We get bowls right here and we go up and get food. We all take turns making the breakfast, lunch or dinner."

All of them stood in line as they waited for their food. "So you have to wait in line for every meal?" Shippo asked.

"Yes." Naomi said.

"Hey Naomi." A half demon said as it walked by with its meal.

"Hey." Naomi said smiling.

"What do you do for snacks?" Shippo asked.

"Well, we don't have snacks here. There is only the three main meals." Naomi said happily.

"Hey Naomi." Another half demon said stopping to talk to her.

"Hey." She said smiling. "What's on your mind?"

"Do you know when we should be getting the next shipment in of logs? I think my family may be running short as well as everyone else around here."

"Give the crew a few more days to get the wood, remember that big snow storm we just had. It probably delayed them." She told him.

"Oh yeah, it is hard to remember when there are snow storms due it never snowing in here." The half demon said as it walked off.

They made it up to the line and got their food then sat down to eat. "We always eat right here." Naomi said. "You aren't to take food out of this area because that brings rats and other pesky animals."

The table was an elongated form of a picnic bench found at a normal picnic area (in Kagome's time). Naomi, Inuyasha and Kagome sat on one side while the others took there place opposite of them.

All of the other half demons seemed to sit away from the group. "Why is everyone so weary of us?" Sango asked.

"It is because you are all humans. Everyone here has been picked on by humans so they are very weary when it comes to them." Naomi said. "Actually, I was very surprised to see you with humans." Naomi said looking at Inuyasha.

"Yes well I never hung around humans until Kagome came around." Inuyasha said as he tried to go back to eating. Just like always food came first.

"Wow Kagome you really are one in a million." Naomi said as she wore her fake smile.

Before Kagome could respond, Inuyasha stopped eating to quickly say, "Actually I hung around Kikyo before Kagome so I guess it was Kikyo I started hanging around with first…" Inuyasha said deep in though, trying to think of which he started to really hang around more.

"But Kagome was the first person you actually stayed around…right?" Sango said trying to help the dimwitted half demon from being pummeled by Kagome.

"True…" Inuyasha said thinking about it.

Miroku kicked Inuyasha under the table before he got the hint and went silent. Everyone dropped the conversation all together and started to eat. Naomi then accidentally dropped a piece of her food on her clothing.

"Oh, Naomi you dropped it on yourself." Inuyasha said grabbing a towel to help her clean off the spot.

"Thanks Inuyasha." Naomi whispered while smiling.

"No problem." Inuyasha said smiling back.

"Excuse me, I'm not feeling so good. I am going to skip this meal for today." Kagome whispered getting up to leave.

"Wait Kagome." Inuyasha yelled getting up.

Kagome stopped and turned around Inuyasha wasn't smiling anymore he looked down at the dirt. "What is it Inuyasha?" Kagome spoke up. He picked up his head to look at her. "Do what you feel is best for you. I will understand." She whispered before walking away from them.

"What's her problem?" Naomi said smirking as she went back to eating her food. 'If Kagome wasn't around I would have him with me forever, although they don't seem like they are together just yet. Maybe I can show him why he should stay with me. Yes that's what I will do tonight.' She kept wondering about ways to have him stay with her. The others there didn't miss the smirk the girl seemed to have on her face.

"I have to go for a bit." Inuyasha told the group before running to find Kagome. He found her near a pond, while there was snow outside of the village, the inside of the village felt like seventy degree weather. She was simply looking into the pond at the koi swimming around trying to catch the small blades of grass that she shredded from the ground and threw in. "Kagome." Inuyasha whispered behind her.

Kagome turned around to see Inuyasha right behind her. She didn't want to say anything though, she couldn't say anything to him right now so she turned back around as the koi departed from her, even the koi didn't want to be around her unless if she was willing to give them something.

"Kagome why are you acting like this?" Inuyasha asked.

"I saw the way you acted when you saw her." She whispered.

"Yeah, I haven't seen her in a long time." He said sitting next to her.

"No Inuyasha you put your arm around her, you hugged her, you licked her which makes no sense, and you went off to talk to her instead of staying with us, you went to talk to her all night." She said.

"Kagome, I didn't think that would bother you. I was just saying hello to an old friend. That's how we used to treat each other, you know because we were kids at the time. I met her when we were kids and that was how we remember each other."

"What about when you licked her cheek? What was that doing?" She asked, she truly didn't understand what that was about.

"It is hard to explain, her mother told us about it. You see between dog demons, they have several ways for you to say something without actually speaking. One of them is through licking. Here let me show you." He said brushing the hair from the side of her face. "You see under the cheek, more near the jaw is more of a I am happy to see you thing. Much like what you told me about when humans in your time kiss old friends on the cheek." He said as he quickly lapped at her cheek in that one area. "That's all you do and that is what we did."

"You make it sound like there is more than just that one." Kagome said as she was slightly disgusted by the fact that Inuyasha just licked her cheek.

"Yes well, there is another. This one is more for love between dog demons; this one says I want to be with you if you want to be with me." He said pointing to Kagome's upper cheek closer to the eye. "Here is where dog demons express the want to be with that person, this is more of a spot where you only go to if you really mean it. Let me show you." He said as he slowly licked her cheek in that area.

Kagome's heart was racing, did he realize what he said compared to what he was doing at that exact moment. She felt his tongue slowly hit her cheek and while she was disgusted by the fact that his saliva was now on her cheek she couldn't get over the fact that he said that they do it only if they mean it.

Inuyasha finally realized what he just did and both seemed to blush deeply. "Well those are the two that dog demons have." He whispered looking away.

"I see." She said still blushing.

"And Kagome we only went into another room because I wanted to let you guys get some sleep. You guys needed it after that storm. I will probably do the same thing tonight. But I promise that I won't do anything that could ruin our friendship." He said looking back at her.

"Alright Inuyasha, I believe you but please while you are making your decisions don't do them because of me, do them so that in the end you will have no regrets." She told him.

"Will you mind if I talk to Naomi tonight while you guys are sleeping?" he asked.

"No." Kagome sighed. "And even if I did, you can make your own decisions Inuyasha. You are old enough to make up your own mind." She told him looking over in his direction.

"I am glad I met you." He whispered as he got up to leave.

'What did he mean by that?' she asked herself as he departed. Once he was gone Kagome let out a painful cry, it was hard to believe that he may still choose the other girl. If that happened, than she might as well go back to her time. The jewel wasn't worth coming back here and being alone. "Inuyasha make the right decision, please make the right decision." She whispered through her tears.

Kagome then straightened up, "I am being selfish if he wants to stay here with her than I will suck it up for his sake." 'After all it would make sense if he stayed here, she is also a half demon as well as the whole village was made for half demons and with that woman at the same age, she wont die soon which means he could spend the rest of his life with her. I can't complain if it will make him happy for the rest of his life.' She told herself as she stood up to go back to the hut they were staying at.

Kagome would be strong, she would make it through this for Inuyasha's sake. If he chose to stay here then she will leave with her nose held high telling him to have a wonderful life. She couldn't be selfish when he was going to be happy for the rest of his life. She had to accept what was right no matter how much it would hurt her.

Alright!!! Another chapter done! Sorry it took me so long. I was going to put up this chapter last weekend before finals but I was caught in the whole power outage thing in New England…I was without power for five days- it was pretty cold. I never want to go through that again. Lets just say a trailer without heat, running water, or a stove to cook on really starts to kill you. I didn't stay at my house the whole time though- I went to live at my aunts for a few days and then went to a hotel.

It was amazing when I got my power back. I went that morning to get a new change of clothes out of my house and my house was literally so cold I could see my breath. I put my book bag down to change out my clothing, right after I do that, I make sure I have everything to study for with me in my other backpack (yes I had two back packs). But as I went to leave my light came on and it didn't register until I went to turn of the light switch. I literally screamed and cried when I got power back. Like literally tears pouring down my face as I heard the furnace kick on and I could see my room without a candle! I thanked God so much that day! Then I had a final the next day and all of my time was put towards all my finals.

Anyways you don't care about my life so just please review and let me know how you liked it!!!

Seriously tell me what you thought about my chapter!!!! By REVIEWING!

By the way ONE MORE CHAPTER!!!
