A/N: Hi again! Long time no. .uh. . write? Or is it read? Whatever. Thank you to reviewers! ^-^ I've been getting good encouragement. I've now changed the secondary genre to some romance, so prepare for some cute stuff. Don't worry, I don't go too far. I just wanted to spice this thing up a bit. One promise: I DON'T write lemons, limes, and any 'icky stuff' as I call it. Why else is it PG? I just did that for the language. -_^
*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
". . .fifty-eight, fighty-nine, sixty, sixty-one. . . ."
Inu-Yasha sat tapping his foot against the wood floor.
"Shippo, there possibly CAN'T be that many potatos. . . "
"Of course there is! Kaede just sent ten more bags of 'em!"
"Well, maybe you just can't count!"
"Uh uh! I can count better then you!"
"I don't wanna go there twirp, c'mere!"
They chased each other around for a few times, while knocking over the dozens of potatos lying around the floor. Miroku sighed sadly as he saw his potato pyramid collapse on top of Kirara, who was nibbling at one of the potatos on the bottom.
"Mew!"
"My apologies there, Kirara."
"Mew. . ."
He picked her up and placed her on his lap, letting her purr as he stroked her.
"Sango?"
"Yes, houshi-sama?"
"Remember last night?"
"I-"
They were interrupted by a big crash of bodies and potatos. Both demons lay sprawled out on the floor, twitching madly. Shippo immediately sat up and began to wail. Inu-Yasha simply sat up and leaned against the wall. He felt a slight pain on his chest, and took off his upper layer of clothing, then the next revealing his bare chest. There was a small splinter right above a small scar on his chest.
"Keh."
But his eyes opened wide as he realized that the scar the splinter had settled upon was one that he had nearly forgotten. It was the scar of Kikyo's arrow that had pinned him to the Goshimboku tree. Such memories flooded him with dread.
"Kikyo. . ."
He didn't know what to do. Although he had loved that woman long before, he couldn't feel himself experiencing the same emotion he had for her at the present. That emotion had been directed somewhere else, in another direction. In the direction towards none but Kagome. Yet guilt over powered him, since he knew that Kikyo's love for him couldn't have changed over time, although she was long dead. He was enveloped in confusion. He couldn't sit there and ignore it, since it was certain that Kagome would notice. He could feel tears welling up. He buried his face in his knees and fell silent. Kagome suddenly looked up from taking care of Shippo, and a look of full concern filled her face. But then she looked at the little kitsune again, and seemed to be unable to decide. Help the crying Shippo, or the crying Inu-Yasha?
Crying Shippo? Or crying Inu-Yasha?
Crying Shippo? Or crying Inu-Yasha?
She looked back and forth at the two of them in complete indecision.
Oh whatever!
She left Shippo in Sango's care and stalked over to Inu-Yasha.
"Inu-Yasha. . .daijyoobu?"
There was no response. She slowly detached his face from his knees, and while he quickly looked away to hide his tears she noticed the splinter in the spot that held many memories.
"Inu-Yasha. . .tsurainone. . ." (translated as: You must be suffering)
She leaned over to him and took him into an embrace. She could feel his tears wetting her shirt. She didn't know exactly what it was that he was crying about, but she basically understood. What both of them didn't know was three other presences behind them approaching.
SMACK!
Inu-Yasha jolted up from his position and glared at the kitsune who was clinging to his head. He had given Inu-Yasha a big kiss between his two dog ears and was now grinning at him sheepishly. He was even blushing slightly.
"Are you ok?"
Inu-Yasha sweatdropped.
That was meant as a comfort, not an insult. Yet, he didn't know whether to thank him or kill him. Sango gave a small smile.
"You could probably consider that your first kiss, Inu-Yasha."
"SHIPPO!!"
He charged at the little kitsune, who by this time started panicking.
"I meant it as a comforting kiss, NOT a lovey-lovey thing like you're gonna do with Kagome someday!!"
With that, Inu-Yasha blushed beet red and restrained himself. Miroku approached from behind.
"Hey, we're all friends are we not? Come Inu-Yasha, here's a hug from me!"
"NO! NEVER!!!"
Miroku outstretched his arms as wide as possible, and Shippo did the same. Both charged at the hanyou from two opposite directions.
"NONONONONONONONO!! NO HUGS FROM MEN! GET AWAY!"
Miroku jumped him from behind, and Shippo clutched at his leg, causing them to land in a heap on the floor with Miroku giving poor Inu-Yasha a hard time with his bear hug, and Shippo pinning his leg down to the floor with all his furious little strength he could give out. The two girls chuckled as the torchuring pair puckered their lips as the hanyou thrashed madly under the weight.
(Moments later. . . .)
Inu-Yasha and Shippo were getting the duck ready for the cooking. And once that was ready, there were now adorning the duck some more with the multitude of potato peels. Shippo stuck one in his mouth so that it hung out, as if he had a lizard tongue.
" ^Q^ " (face with mouth wide open with tongue hanging)
Inu-Yasha then took two more peels and covered the kitsune's eyes with it.
"Get to work, twirp. I'm hungry."
"BLEEAH!"
Shippo spat the potato peel at his face and chucked a handful of others down Inu-Yasha's shirt.
"What the- AUGH!"
Inu-Yasha squirmed around the floor, trying to rid himself of the wiggly potato peels crawling on his back.
"CURSE YOU!!"
He grabbed the fluffy tail in front of him.
"I've got you NOW!"
"Wait, WAIT! I have an idea for the duck!!"
"Which is. . .?"
(Moments after the duck was cooked)
"Ta-daaa! It's done!"
Shippo happily presented the plate of duck to the awaiting three.
"Wow, looks great!"
Kagome broke up her chopsticks (since they were disposable) and waited patiently as the others did likewise.
"Wow, that duck looks great! All those potato skins, scallions. . .and. . .what's that thing sticking out on top?"
"Oh that? I found that in your backpack Kagome! I figured it was edible so I thought I might as well. . .right Inu-Yasha?"
"Ya, sure. . ."
"How nice, I wonder what it could b-"
She reached out to grab it and as she slowly pulled it out she released a high-pitched scream that nearly shattered everyone's eardrum.
"Geez woman! What are trying to do? Make us deaf?"
"MY TAMPON! YOU USED A FRIGGEN TAMPON!!!! OH MY GOSH, YOU USED A TAMPON!!!!!!!!!!"
"And is that a good thing?"
Kagome chucked the roasted tampon at Miroku, who had been brave enough to ask the innocent question.
"Mou! I'm gonna be back in my world for a moment!"
She stood up and marched towards the door, but she walked into it head on and was immediately repelled back.
"What the-?"
She went at the door again. This time, it repelled her with a greater force that she went flying into Inu-Yasha, who had his chopsticks raised to dig into the duck. There was a long pause.
"That says a lot. . ."
Miroku was examining the door.
"It looks like Kaede sent a spell from Hokkaido."
"What's that?"
"She sent a barrier spell to seal the door. It looks like she doesn't know that we're in here with Inu-Yasha."
"What does it all mean monk?"
"I-err. . . "
"Well? What is it?"
"I don't really want to-"
"SAY IT!"
Kagome had her sledgehammer raised at this point. Miroku gulped and bravely spoke.
"We're stuck here until Inu-Yasha's one month punishment is over. . . ."
"WWWWWHHHHHHAAAAAAATTTTTTTTTTTTTT??????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Uh, oh! Things aren't looking good for the gang is it? ^-^ R+R!! Also readers, do you remember the song that Miroku sang in chapter 5?
"when somebody loves you, it's no good unless he loves you, all the way. . . ."
And so on and so on. Just as a disclaimer, that song is originally sung by Celine Dion and I THINK the dubbed voice of Frank Sinatra. OK? Hope you liked this one!
