"Oh come on, we have to rest, I'm tired and we haven't gotten any leads what so ever. Lets find a nice inn and stay the night," Whined the yawning Fuu. The other three agreed with the talkative Fuu. They were tired and lagging through the wilderness throughout the day in hopes of some village or something. Kagome felt as though she would die if she didn't bath soon. It was becoming summer, making her feel caked with sweat and dirt. Like magic, they came across a hot springs. She could have fallen to her knees and cried with gratitude.
"Oh thank you god," Kagome said, itching to removing her clothing and maybe even washing them as well. She pushed Mugen and Jin away and told them to stay.
"Come on, Fuu, lets go bath! And if I catch you guys peeping, you'll regret it," Kagome warned, narrowing her eyes at both boys, her index finger pointing from one man to another. Mugen snorted.
"Who'd want to see that shapeless body?" Kagome continued to glare as the two men walked away. She broke out in a smile before setting out soap, towels, and her outfit. Quickly she stripped and jumped in, accompanied by the more shy Fuu.
"Ahhh," Fuu sighed at the relaxing water, only to look partly down and bring her hands to her chest. She glanced over at Kagome, who was oblivious of the looks.
"Wow Kagome, your so much more developed." It was as though the two men should have been apart of Kouga's clan since it seemed their ears perked at the girls words. Mugen grinned at Jin before trying to peek through the trees. Jin stopped him with his sword.
"You will not go peeking on the girls," Jin growled at him, making Mugen frown. Then grin at Jin.
"Cmon, it wouldn't really be peeking, we could be watching and protecting them. We are Fuu's body guards." Mugen wrapped his arm around Jin's shoulders with a grin. Jin brought a hand to his chin before nodding.
"Yes, protection." They peeked through the trees able to make out the girls slim backs towards them.
"Kagome what is that in your hair?" Fuu pointed at the bubbles falling around Kagome's face.
"Shampoo. It makes your hair clean and not so greasy. Here you can use some. Just put alittle in your hand and rub it into your hair." Kagome went down rinsing her hair and coming back up. She ringed her hair as she stood and looked over her shoulder towards the forest, making sure they boys weren't there. Mugen's grin grew at her action. Her hair came down her creamy back that was sheen with the water that was everywhere on her. Her bottom was barely exposed but still under the water, her arms wrapping around her chest because of the cool breeze. The breath got stuck in his throat as she turned towards the forest, exposing her body, except her breast, thanks to her arms. Sure, he has seen plenty of women before, much older then Kagome as well. But something about the young creamy body made his chest ache. Her skin looked soft and slick, so supple, his fingers ached to roam down his body. Damn women. She walked towards the shore and grabbed her miko garbs then walked back to where Fuu was. Mugen glanced over to Jin, seeing he was also watching Kagome. He frowned and pushed his arm.
"Stop staring asshole," he growled, trying to distract him from looking at Kagome. Jin narrowed his eyes.
"You were the one staring, close your mouth, your drooling," Mugen's eye brow twitched with an irritated smile crossing his lips. He pulled out his sword from his back and turned towards Jin, who followed suit.
"What you say, you little bitch?" Both were about to attack when they heard a scream.
"What are you guys doing?" Kagome fumed, her skin still gleaming with water with the light pink towel wrapped around her form. Both boys turned to see her, her cheeks burning with anger.
"Were you peeping on us?" she hissed, causing Fuu to glance and see what the commotion about. She eeped then fell back into the water. Both guys glanced at each other before slowly backing up.
"Cmon, we were just protecting you guys. You know making sure no guys came and peeped on you," he said, still grinning at the sight. She looked surprised before smiling.
"Oh really," She picked up a few rocks before throwing it at their heads.
"If I could I would sit both you, into oblivion!" They retreated as Kagome picked up her cleaned Miko garbs and changed into her uniform. Fuu gratefully took a towel and changed back before they both headed back. Kagome had cooled down, but not much by the time they returned. So she did the only thing she could think of; not talk or feed the men. She walked to the fire, laying her outfit to dry by a rock next to it. She laid her and Fuu's towel by it, ignoring the grin that Mugen still wore.
"Fuu would you like to go with me to find some berries or something?" Fuu glanced at the quiet boys before smiling and nodding. Kagome shot a glare at the boys as Mugen started to groan about food.
"Um, Fuu, can I ask you something?" Kagome finally spoke up as the started picking at a few wild berries they found. She glanced at the puzzled Fuu.
"What?"
" Do you like Jin?" A blush came over Fuu's cheeks as she started to stutter.
"Wha… What gave you that idea?" Kagome smiled as she dropped another berry in her shirt-basket.
"Oh, just the glances, the smiles. You have that puppy look that Sango always wore around Miroku. I just have a feeling about it. So do you?"
"Is it that obvious?" Kagome smiled as she sat down and looked up. The sun had set, letting the stars burst above them.
"You know most guys can be extremely oblivious to everything; why you smile a lot, why you worry about them, why you always come back. That's why sometimes you have to tell them. I kind of regret not telling." Kagome scratched the back of her neck as she watched as Fuu's face brightened, her cheeks red with embarrassment.
"I cant. What if he turns me down. Or worse, leaves?"
"He wouldn't do that, even if person feelings were involved his pride wouldn't allow him," Kagome felt the truth of her words in her own life as she stood and started to walk back. Fuu followed behind, finally popping to her side. She glanced over to Kagome who stared forward.
"What about you Kagome? Do you like someone?"
"I've already told you this, the guy I liked is in the past and loves someone else,"
"No I mean now. I heard from Mugen there was a guy at that sick village that seemed interested in you. Or maybe that painter?" Kagome laughed.
"No, he wasn't really my type. And when did you hear that from Mugen?"
"Well he was rambling about you taking for ever when we parted ways. I think he might have been a little jealous," Fuu turned towards Kagome, but couldn't read her though, as though a mask had slipped onto her face, hiding her away.
" I'm starving, got anything?" Mugen got up only to be ignored by Kagome.
"Did you hear something Fuu?"
"Yeah that was Mugen…"
"Really, I don't know a Mugen. Plus it sounded more like a fly. A disgusting, rude, lying, perverted fly," Kagome huffed letting the berries slip into a pile on a blanket and throwing a few in her mouth. Fuu laughed loudly, figuring out the game Kagome was playing. She walked and sat besides Kagome, eating a few berries herself. Mugen walked over, reaching for a handful, only to get his hand slapped.
"Damn those flies are trying to get on our food." Mugen frowned.
"I'm not a damn fly! And I know you can understand me! Give me some of those," He reached in again, only to be slapped again.
"No, next time you should listen to what I say. I asked you not to peep on us and you did! Shame on you! And you Jin! I thought you were a little more mature then that." She huffed, glaring at both men. She turned on her heel and get to her sleeping back, ending the discussion. The next day Kagome forgave them for the incident, letting the boys finish off the berries. As they started walking the next day, Mugen came close to Kagome. He smugly smiled at her as she narrowed her eyes.
"What?"
"I really like that shorter kimono on you," Her cheeks burned, her lips frowning, as he grinned at her, walking away once again to smart talk Jin. Fuu's words echoed inside of her. Could she like anyone in this era? What if she wasn't allowed back? Then she would be stuck here forever, so was it a bad idea to let her feelings blossom? She was always run by emotions, and never to deny her instincts.
