Inuyasha was sitting in his usual tree as kagome approached. She looked up at him. "Inuyasha? You okay?" Inuyasha lept down in front of her and replied, "feh! Of course im fine! I just wanted some time to myself." He paused, looking at her and started backing away slowly. Kagome took a step towards him. "Inuyasha?" "Fuck." He hissed as he backed up further. "Dont come any closer." He lept off quickly, causing kagomes feelings to be hurt as she stared after him in bewilderment. She sighed and returned to the village to ask sango for her advice. She arrived and seeing that miroku was knocked out on the ground, she was sure sango would be able to talk to her without any interruption. Judging by the lump on his head, he would be out for a few hours. She vaguely wondered what he had done this time before she returned to the present and pulled sango along with her to the hotsprings.
Sango listened to kagomes story with a smile on her face. "Well kagome, it is mating season and you are in heat. I think hes afraid to hurt you." Kagome blushed. "How can you tell if im in heat?" Sango replied, "with demons and humans it is pretty easy to tell. The females are in heat after their bleeding cycle ends. For demons, they only have a cycle once a year." "Lucky for them." Kagome muttered, still blushing. Sango continued on, "its obvious that his demon side thinks of you as a mate already. It must be hard for him to keep from claiming you. Hes probably not even sure how you feel about him. If you give him time, im sure hell tell you himself." Kagome sighed and nodded as sango got out of the springs and dried off. "Be careful Kagome, don't stay out too late okay?" Kagome nodded again and relaxed in the spring.
