It has over a year since I updated, I am a failure -_-

Though, I started my junior year and it has been insane for me. But I have been getting straight A's! So my grades and school right now is my top priority, so I am sorry if I do not get to post as often. Junior year, as anywhere else, is the heaviest year as far as academics go. So I will try my best.

The thing is I have the chapters written out on paper! But as soon as I have a break, I will try my best in typing and posting them.

Also! A topic I want to discuss with all of you, I may change the title of this story!

Please leave reviews or messages letting me know if I should and/or suggestions of the title. If I get suggestions and once I get enough I will put up a poll. Thanks everyone.

So, last chapter you got to see Miroku and Sango for a bit. And the reason I did that was I had writer's block. :P hehe yeah! But it was nice to write them in, finally.

Oh yeah! And about my Naruto story, I am almost ready to post the 1st chapter! Naru is really smart and family is alive and majorly talented! I love Kushina and Minato so they are alive! And the Uchiha's are a bit nicer.

Okay Okay! Sorry I'll get to the story! Here it is:

You know, living in the castle is quite luxurious, though to Inuyasha it was missing something, or more like, someone. After the having the a full day to rest and healing of his minor injuries. He was finally able to head back to Kouga. As of right now he was walking through the halls to say a final goodbye to his brother. Though he knew he would eventually see him again. He knocked on the elders study, which was very hidden and far away from everything. 'Figures he would immediately hide away to his hole.'

The door opened and creaked like something from a creepy ghost story. He strolled inside and saw Sesshomaru reading through some scrolls with a cup of tea in his right hand

"Ah Inuyasha, you heading back?" Inuyasha inclined his head, nodding.

"Yeah. Just wanted to say bye before I left. And to be honest, I miss Kouga. And I think I am going to be have to tell him. I can't stand by and watch somebody else take him away from me." Sesshomaru nodded, "Tell him as soon a you touch the borders of the north. Inuyasha don't regret not telling him." He took a sip of his tea a small smirk on his face. "Plus, I want a niece or nephew in these halls. It does get a bit dreary here sometimes." Inuyasha eye twitched in annoyance, 'How are you my brother? What happened to the guy that used to kill me everytime he saw me?''

"Well I better set off Sesshomaru."

"Alright. Inuyasha, I will be in contact." The hanyou nodded and gave his brother a small smile before walking out of the office.

Inuyasha gave goodbye's to the people he passed and continued on forth. He was planning to make it to the north before dusk. Sesshomaru watched Inuyasha sprint off through the forest he gave a small smile before disappearing and continuing to sit and read those blasted scrolls.

Though as he ran off he didn't notice the pairs of eyes watching him.

With Kouga

Kouga was worried. The only emotion he could feel, besides a longing, was worry. Worried if Inuyasha passed his test, worried…

If he would come back to him.

Another sense of worry for him was that if his feelings for Inuyasha were to be accepted. Kouga took a deep breath before deciding to go calm his nerves, he walked to his den, his body feeling heavier with each step as he hit the bed with full intention to take a needed nap.

With Ginta and Hakkaku

"You know Hakkaku, I can see Kouga likes somebody, maybe even love." Ginta looked at his lover and partner, who was sitting against a tree, waiting for what he would say.

"Well yeah, it's Inuyasha." Hakkaku said as he pulled his partner down so he was sitting between his legs, as he got him in position, he wrapped his arms around him.

"That's who I thought it was, though it was obvious, they are just oblivious." Ginta leaned into his lover and shifted as he got comfortable.

"Who do think will tell first?" Hakkaku peered down at the one in his arms.

Ginta hummed in thought, "I really don't know to be honest, they are both stubborn. Hell, if It gets to a certain point I may have to put them in a room and tell them myself."

Hakkaku laughed, "Man I would pay to see that." Then quieted, "Then again they better do it soon, I overheard the council saying something about a possible arranged marriage."

Ginta eyes widened, "What?! They can't do that." Ginta didn't like the thought of an arranged marriage, everybody should have a the right to fall in love with anybody, but not some stranger that they just met and suddenly be married to them. Ginta next thought was interrupted by a snap of a twig in the woods. Both the wolf demons stood in alert, in fighter ready positions.

"Who's there?" Hakkaku asked as he stepped in front of Ginta.

"Guys! Calm down, it's just me." A foot emerged from the bushes before a red clad half-demon came out into the clearing.

"Inuyasha!" Both wolf tribe demons shouted in excitement and surprise. The half-demon was covered in the scent of blood, his Fire Rat robe making the blood stains hard to see.

"What happened?" Ginta asked.

"I ran into a group of demon, they saw me leaving Sesshomaru's and though I was weak and something they could use against my brother." Inuyasha smirked.

"And let's just stay they were sorely mistaken."

Hakkaku laughed. "Geez Inuyasha, I will admit you had me scared for a moment. Anyway, your back though! Has Kouga seen you yet? He's going to be so excited now that you're back." He wrapped his hand around Inuyasha's arm and starts to walk towards the den, but Inuyasha resisted.

"Actually Hakkaku, I don't want to see him just yet." Both wolf demons looked at the Inu demon confused.

"What do you mean by that Inuyasha?" Ginta questioned, his brows furrowed in confusion. Inuyasha smiled slightly and looked at the two.

"I'm gonna take a guess and take it you both know that I have feelings for Kouga." The two demons glanced at each other and nodded.

Ginta rubbed the back of his neck, "Well to be honest Inuyasha, it was quite obvious."

Inuyasha chuckled softly. "Yeah, I guess it wasn't much of a secret, but besides that, I want to ask Kouga to be my mate. But I need the help of you two."

Ginta and Hakkaku looked at Inuyasha in shock for a second before grinning. "What can we do to help?"

Inuyasha smirked.

~Almost Dusk~

With Kouga

'Ugh! Damn those two! Hakkaku and Ginta has been dragging me around all day, then when they finally let me do my own thing they leave me alone in the woods!'

~Earlier that Day~

It was true, after Ginta and Hakkaku decided to help Inuyasha, their only task was;

"Don't let Kouga get anywhere near the waterfall tonight. Do everything needed to keep him away."

And they were determined to do just that. After Kouga came out of his den from a well needed nap, he did his rounds walking around the den. After though, he wanted to go on a hunt, where the two wolf demon lovers panicked for a moment. Luckily though they were prepared. "Kouga! The council called for you." Ginta smiled at his friend.

"Man, really, right now? Alright, I'm coming." Ginta and Hakkaku followed after their friend glancing at each other, smirking slightly. The council needed Kouga all the time to discuss certain politics of the tribe, though for today they didn't truly need him. For what Kouga didn't know is that Ginta and Hakkaku came in earlier telling the council of Inuyasha and his plan. The women elders squealed in delight as the men in the council chuckled and shook their head, muttering "finally" under their breaths, as they listened in on the plan.

Though the plan with the council was working brilliantly, especially for Inuyasha's sake, for Kouga, it was hell. The council kept him in the room for hours. Though they did discuss real issues, most of it was for stalling time. After a couple of hours, Ginta and Hakkaku came in to take Kouga on a "hunting" trip, for which the wolf prince, sprinted out of the room. Before leaving, the two lovers grinned at the council, who smiled back. They lead Kouga near the waterfall, as the prince sat down to relax and close his eyes, the two saw this as their time to leave, silently. Kouga lost in his thoughts of his day (and Inuyasha) didn't notice the two leave. As he stood up, opening his eyes, he looked around and didn't see his two friends. And this is where we are now.

"Those two are gonna get it once I see them, the dragged me into a long ass council meeting, then decide to drop me in the woods." Kouga sighed, his ears twitched as he heard the rushing water of a waterfall near by. "Well I guess while I'm here I can relax in the water."

He started to walk to the sound of the water, not noticing a golden pair of eyes on him.

The eyes watched and followed the wolf moving soundless through the trees, while masking his scent. He watched the wolf as he waited for the right moment.

Kouga walked and sat by the lake looking at the water, pondering. His eyes softened as he rested his head on his knee as he whispered, "I wish you were here Inuyasha."

The Inu demon in the tree smiled as he heard that, and jumped down and walked into the clearing.

"And if I already was?"
