Author's note: I'm sorry this update has taken so long!! I'm just in a writer block and right now I'm going to try to plow through it. So, bare with me if this isn't too great.
Chapter 10 Time
A few days passed and still Kagome and the injured Inuyasha stayed in the cave. Though, Inuyasha's wound was taking it's time in healing and Inuyasha was getting rather impatient. When Inuyasha would whine about leaving, Kagome would just shack her head and say 'no' very calmly.
Inuyasha sighed heavily, laying at the cave entrance. "Kagome, let's leave already!" He growled impatiently.
Kagome shook her head as she placed a log on the fire. "No, your wound needs more time to heal." She replied quietly as she poke the fire with a stick, bring it more to life.
Inuyasha sat up, glaring at her. "It's fine! I'm fine!" He argued. "Plus, there isn't anything to do in this damn cave."
Kagome sighed, rolling her eyes. 'Can't I just have peace, for even a minute?' She thought. "No Inuyasha. Now, just rest." She replied, getting a bit edgy at his consent complaints.
Inuyasha huffed and turned his back to her, glaring outside as birds flew passed, singing there song of the day.
BACK AT KAEDE'S VILLAGE
Miroku paced back and forth, frowning. He looked up at the forest, then back to the ground. "They have been gone along time." He informed Sango was sitting calmly by a tree, sipping some tea.
"Yes, I know they have. Now, please stop pacing around. It's starting to get on my nerves." Sango replied, placing the small tea cup down on the ground.
Miroku sighed, taking a seat next to Sango and leaning back against the tree. "Sorry." He sighed deeply, starring out at the thick forest where both Kagome and Inuyasha had left. The snow was still thick around them, but he didn't mind. He glanced over quickly at Sango who looked rather content for where she was sitting. 'It's been awhile since we had a rest....' He thought, thinking about this years harvest. 'it was very strange for snow to come this early.'
"Miroku...." Sango said slowly.
"Hmmm?" Miroku glanced over at Sango who was just starring strait ahead of her. "What is it?"
Sango stood up, brushing off the bits of snow that had fallen on her lap. Slowly, she turned to him with a serious look upon her face. "Let's go look for them."
Miroku stared at her in silent, surprise by this sudden suggestion, but in the end he nodded in agreement. "Yes, let's go." He stood up, using his staff as a brace.
Sango nodded to him and started back to Kaede's hut. They need supplies since they weren't sure how long they will be out there. It would have been much easier with Kirara at their aid, but at the moment she was with Kagome. Sango took a deep, cold breath in as she entered the warm hut. Shippou was sitting to the side and immediately jumped up once Sango and Miroku entered the hut.
"Sango! Miroku!" Shippou exclaimed, skipping over to them. "Are they back yet?" His eyes stared at them, pleading for them to say yes, but inwardly he knew the real answer.
Miroku shook his head sadly. "No." He took a deep breath in, looking around the hut. "Where is lady Kaede?"
Shippou sighed, walking back to where he was sitting. "She's at one of the huts, looking after a sick child." He informed, plopping down onto the ground.
Sango nodded. "Miroku, go talk to Kaede, I'll get yours and my stuff ready."
Miroku nodded to her and left the hut, off to go find Kaede.
Shippou raised a brow. "You guys aren't leaving me too!" He whined, running up to the taijiya.
Sango shook her head, kneeling down next to him. She smiled at him, placing a reassuring hand on his shoulder. "No, but we're going out to look for Inuyasha and Kagome. We will need your help, will you come with us?"
Shippou puffed out his chest, trying to look at brave as possible. "Of course!"
Sango smiled, standing back up. "Good, now you can help me get supplies for out trip."
BACK AT THE CAVE
"Kagome, I'm hungry." Inuyasha whined, watching the raman slowly cooking over the small fire.
Kagome sighed. "It will be only a few moments more."
Inuyasha frowned, but slowly nodded, sitting back against the cold cave wall.
Kagome shook her head, closing her eyes. Inuyasha, he was getting more and more like a child every day. Slowly, she looked out the cave entrance. All she could see was white. Snow was everywhere and it was getting thicker by the days. 'I don't know what's going on, but maybe me and Inuyasha should think about leaving soon. Kirara's wounds are pretty much healed, as are Inuyasha so I think we'll be fine out there.' She thought, rubbing her arms for warmth.
Inuyasha glanced up, watching Kagome rub her arms. 'She must be cold.' He thought to himself, glancing down at his fire-rat robe. 'Of course, I'm perfectly fine. Things like this doesn't bother me much, but her....' He glanced over at her, then to her school uniform. 'That thing doesn't over much....' He blushed deeply at the though, quickly looking away.
Kagome yawned lightly, turning back to the fire. She smiled, taking in the sweet aroma of the cooked raman. "It's ready." She announced, moving the raman cup away from the fire.
Immediately, Inuyasha sat up. He licked his lips in anticipation as he watched her pour even amounts of raman into the bowls. He gladly accepted the bowl full of raman once Kagome passed it to him.
Kagome smiled as she watched him chow down on the raman. She glanced down at her own bowl and smiled to herself. She had even Inuyasha more so he would be able to gather his strength faster. She blew lightly and the soup and slowly started to eat.
After they were finish with supper, Kagome collected the bowls and walked outside the cave. She shivered, looking around the snow covered ground. With her mitten covered hands, she scooped up some snow and started to clean the bowls. After that chore was done, she walked back into the cave and looked over at Inuyasha who seemed to have already fallen asleep next to Kirara. She gave Kirara, who was still awake, a warm smiled as she sat down next to the fire-neko.
Kagome looked over at the sleeping hanyou and smiled to herself. She reached her hand out to brush some stray hairs out of his face when his golden eyes snapped open. Quickly, she pulled her hand back. "S-sorry, did I wake you?"
Inuyasha shook his head, sitting up. "No.... I was just thinking...." He replied quietly, starring ahead.
Kagome raised a brow, her curiosity getting the best of her. "Thinking about what?"
Inuyasha turned his gaze to her, looking her up and down. "Aren't you cold?"
Kagome blinked, looking at her legs as a light shade of pink covered her cheeks. "Well.... n-not really... I-" She stopped mid-sentence as she felt something being put over her shoulder. She looked to her arm and there was the fire-rat robe. "I-inuyasha?"
Inuyasha already was sitting back in his stop, his gaze back to the cave entrance. "You need it more then I do."
Kagome smile, then a thought struck her. Gathering up all her courage, she scooted over next to him and snuggle in close. "S-so we both are warm." She said quickly, blushing a deep shade of pink.
Inuyasha blushed deeply, shocked at her boldness, but something took over him. He found himself wrapping his arms around her and pulling her closer into his body. He blushed even more but manage to whisper, "So we both are warm."
