Inuyasha was sitting on the windowsill when Kagome came in from her bath. Neither one of them said a word nor looked in each others direction. Familiar scent filled his nostrells. It was the same scent he would pick up everytime Kagome came back from her era.
"Must be her body wash or something. She smells like this everytime we meet again from a few days of parting. Some how it always makes me feel so relaxed and happy." he thought, a smile creeping up on his hansome face reveiling his pearly white fangs.
"Inu...Inuyasha?" began Kagome, breaking the akward silence between them.
"Hmm, yer what?"
"I...Um..Well i was wondering..." she stuttered "Do you regret what we did?" as the question finaly stummbled out of her mouth, Kagome could feel her heart begining to beat faster.
Inuyasha sighed, his back still to Kagome. The young priestess's hands raised to her mouth. The backs of her eyes stung as she faught to hold back the tears that where forming in her saddened eyes.
"I was going to ask you the same thing" he blurted out "i was thinking alot while you were bathing. No, i don't regret it. But something tells me that you do..." he answered turning round to face her.
Kagome sighed in relief at the answer given.
"No! Of course i don't regret it. But why then, after, did you get so uncomfortable with me?"
Inuyasha blushed and turned away from Kagome again. How was he going to tell her that he was thinking peverted things about them, and that he was becoming as bad as Miroku?
"Oh well...here goes..." he thought.
After a deep breath Inuyasha told Kagome why he was so uncomfortable. But his tries where in vain.
"Liar" whispered Kagome, her head lowered "Your lying to me again aren't you. Is this the best excuse you could come up with?"
Inuyasha turned to face Kagome. A look of hurt and pain on his face. The half-demon got off of the windowsill and walked towards Kagome.
"You are, aren't you! Just admitt it! You would think by now that i would know that you would never think anything like that! You weren't thinking about me at all, where you? As usual you end up thinking about Kikyo. Haven't you realised it yet? She tried killing you, doesn't that tell you that she doesn't love you?" Kagome yelled "For goodness sake Inuyasha! She's dead and im right here! I've always been here!"
"Kagome? Whats got into you? How could you even say something like that?"
"Forget it, just go." she replied.
"Kagome..."
"I said go!"
With out another word being said, Inuyasha left the room. Hearing Inuyasha enter the living room below her, Kagome burst into tears. She was so upset that she lost all control and smashed everything in sight. Knowing that Inuyasha or her mother would come up because of the noise, the young priestess climbed out of her window and jumped down to the ground. As soon as her heals touched the soil beneath them her legs had a mind of their own. Not knowing where she was going, Kagome ran as fast as she could possibly go. Finally coming to a hault, Kagome found herself at the park. About four blocks away from Higurashi shrine.
"What sort of person have i become? I would never say anything like that normally? Inuyasha must think im some kind of monster now...He must...He must hate me now. I wouldn't be surprised if he never wanted to see me again!!" She wailed inside her mind.
Tired from all the running, Kagome sat herself down on the park bench. Tears falling wildly from her dark, sad eyes.
"Whats the matter with me lately? Why am i crying so much? God, im such a baby!" scolded the young priestess to herself.
Inuyasha had indeed heard the racket coming from Kagome's bedroom. Once inside, he was shocked to see everything was practically destroyed.
"What the heck happened in here? Did a demon do this? No. I can only smell Kagome's scent in here. Could...Could it be that Kagome did this? Kagome? Where is she? Kagome?!" shouted the worried half-demon "Damn that girl. I've got to find her, quick."
