Hahahahahaha… I made it! NO BABIES FOR J00 :D

InuYasha woke with a start, almost hitting his head against one of the walls in the old miller's house. While he finished rubbing the sleep out of his eyes, he saw the still sleeping form of Kagome lying sprawled on her futon, partially covered still by the blanket. Crawling over to her carefully, he reached out and pulled the sheets up over her, smiling quietly to himself as she sighed in her sleep and rolled over, curling into the warm blankets. Then yawning and stretching, he stood up quietly to go look outside, partially to help wake him up and partially to tell what time it was.

Oh good, the sun's still rising.

Oh joy.

Well, aren't we a little ball of sunshine?

Shut it. It's too early to argue with you.

Yawning again, he turned back to check on Ki-

Kagome.

I know that.

She was now sprawled out in the opposite direction than before, her legs tangled in the blanket and her arms barely covered by her own hair, strands of which were lying out across her face. He grimaced at the thought of how much time he had left to express himself, then shook it off like it were a cold spray of water. This was the start of the second to last day he had to live unless he could get up the courage to tell the sprawled out thing on the floor how he really felt.

Oh joy.

Hey, you're just a slow starter.

Thanks; that's the last thing I thought you'd say.

Or you could just be slow.

Hey!

Crouching on the window sill, he watched her sleep. Suddenly, she shifted a little bit to the right, and-

OH MY GOD.

What?

OH MY GOD!

WHAT?

Sh-she's not wearing anything…

…

…

Well?

"Well" what?

"Well" what are you going to do?

I don't know!

InuYasha, at this point, had turned around so that he wasn't facing the, recently brought to light, naked and sleeping Kagome.

She's not wearing clothes!

I think we've established this.

What do I do?

I dunno. Wing it.

Covering his eyes and bright red face, he jumped off the window sill and walked towards her. Without looking, he reached down to pull up the covers around her when suddenly Sango burst into the room and he froze.

"OH MY. I'll- uh… I'll come back later!" Then the demon-hunter raced out of the door she'd come through.

"W-wait! Sango! This isn't what it looks like!" He rushed out and grabbed her arm, pulling her towards him. "You've got to help me!"

There was an expression of stifled laughter at on the face he was pleading to.

"You don't get it! I-I woke up and- and she was LIKE THAT!" He said in a hushed tone, shaking her arm with one hand and waving frantically at the house with the other. "I-I didn't want to- What I MEAN is…"

Sango looked like a balloon filled with too much air, but InuYasha was too busy retelling the events of what had occurred.

"…and then I reached down to you know- nothing like THAT! I-I thought she might be cold!"

The second he said "cold", the balloon that was Sango had popped and she stood there, doubled over and clutching her sides as she laughed, tears even brimming in her eyes, while the frantic, waving demon stood there overly confused at the events of the situation. She laughed until she finally could speak between giggles.

"What's so funny?"

"The-the look on your FACE! Wh-when I walked in-into the roooom!" The demon hunter started off again as the source of her laughter flattened his ears and looked at her begging for pity.

Making her laugh even harder.

I know, I know. Short, eh? Well, it was longer than last chapter, I'm sure.

Ah well, I'll make shure to write at least a thousand words, okay? BUT! I demand... a cookie ;D.
