Chapter 4~ An Understanding InuYasha's P.O.V "Kikyo completely ruined last night Kagome I'm sorry." No matter how many times I apologized she just shrugged and never answered. "Honestly Kagome, I'm sorry…" I walked up behind her and put my head against the back of her neck. "InuYasha… it's okay. It's not like you could've stopped Kikyo from showing up… I just want to know how she knew we were…" Kagome went back to whatever it was that she was doing… and from my head's resting spot on her shoulder I could see that she was drawing in a book. "What ya drawin' Kagome?" I asked. She turned and looked at me, with an expression in her eyes of 'Really InuYasha?' "I'm drawing flowers InuYasha… it's what I draw when I'm upset…" she stood up and walked towards the direction of the village, "Are we still going?" she asked with some impatience in her voice. I nodded and followed her, sensing that she didn't really want me talking much this time. As night started coming we stopped and started making camp. "Hey Kagome… you okay? I don't think I've ever seen you so quiet before… I ain't worried or anythin' though… I'm just… curious." I stuttered over my words which made it sound like I was worried… which I wasn't cause I'm never worried about anything… except my ass of a brother Sesshomaru showin' up. It's not like I don't like him or anything… it's just simply that he's an ass… Kagome pulled me outta my thoughts with, "InuYasha, what's wrong? I know you're thinking about something over there… is it Kikyo again?" Damnit I hate it when she's like this… "No Kagome, I ain't thinkin' of Kikyo. I was thinkin' about Sesshomaru…" I told her the truth… well most of the truth anyways… "I was thinkin' of what we'd do if he were to show up. I know I'd probably like challenge him or something but… I don't know… I don't want you to get caught in the crossfires if I do end up fighting him. It's the same with Koga. I wouldn't want you there in the crossfires when I'm done kickin' his sorry ass." I smiled at the end. 'One of these days Kagome… One of these days you'll understand my feelings for you.' I was making silent vows in my head… and apparently it crossed through my eyes. "InuYasha what are you thinking about this time? You'd better not be thinking about how to torture Koga again!" she yelled at me. "No… no I'm not thinking that at all! What made ya think that?" 'God I'm so dead…' I stood up and walked over to her. "Kagome ya know I love ya right?" I started trying to get my sorry ass outta hot water with her, cause I knew that if I didn't I'd get sat into next week. "I'm going to bed InuYasha. We've done a lot of traveling today and I'm tired… I'm glad that tomorrow is our final day of this cause I'm not sure I can go through another day of travel." She dismissed me with a wave of her hand and laid down.
