Megumi-chan- Here's the next installment of Resurrection for those of you who begged me! Oh, and arigato to all the many reviews! I had to create a whole "Review" section in my email folders for all of them (and I keep 'em too to make me feel like I know what I'm doing..)
Anyway, I'm glad most of you liked that little fluffy scene with Inuyasha and Kagome. Me, I'm a sucker for fluff. ^_^ Ja!

Chapter 14
Go Home, Kagome!
*~*~*
Kagome groaned when she walked back to camp, hand in hand with Inuyasha. He kept calling her "Kagome-koi". Obviously, he didn't have quite a blushing problem as Kagome did. Each time he called her that, she blushed ten shades of red, while kissing him on the cheek. They were almost to the campsite, when they heard the little pitter patter of a certain kitsune.
"KAGOMEEE!" Shippou yelled, as he leapt into her arms. Inuyasha growled at him. "What's up with him? Hey, Kagome, why'd ya smell so much like Inuyasha?" Kagome blushed, as Inuyasha growled again.
"Inuyasha... why are you growling at Shippou?" Kagome asked, worriedly. The last time Inuyasha was like this to Shippou was when they first met the little kitsune. Shippou barely heard the hanyou's growls and grunts, and jumped out of Kagome's arms when he realized what they meant.
"K-Kagome-chan? You can't carry me..." Shippou said.
"Why not, Shippou-chan?" Kagome wondered.
"'Cause dog demons are highly protective of their mates, and you're Inuyasha's mate, right?" Shippou asked. Kagome nodded. "Well, I don't know all of it, but he doesn't like other youkai or males to touch you much. He might turn to full youkai if it happens again. At least, I think so."
"Inuyasha, calm down, Shippou's off of me, now," Kagome said, looking into her mate's golden eyes. The hanyou still didn't.
"Grhll.. grrrl.. ghrll.." Inuyasha grunted. Kagome didn't know what the heck he was saying.
"He says you smell like me. Maybe you should take a bath, Kagome-chan," Shippou said. Inuyasha grunted some more. "And he adds on, alone."
*~*~*
Kagome followed the angry hanyou's advice, no matter how confusing it was to her. I understand why he'd be ballistic if another male touched me, but Shippou's just a little kid! He wasn't gonna do anything to me! She thought, as she scrubbed her body. She sighed, and lay back into the steaming hot water.
"Kagome-chan? It's me, Sango. Are you taking a bath?" She heard, suddenly. Kagome answered a quick 'Hai', and Sango came out. "Good, you're alone. You'll never guess what happened."
"What? Did Miroku-sama and you finally admit your feelings?" Kagome asked. Sango scrunched her nose up, as she undressed, and climbed into the springs.
"As if! Houshi-sama has finally learned to keep his hands to himself! I'm free from the groping!" Sango said, joyfully. Kagome just looked confused. "Well... we went to see if Inuyasha was going to be nice to you, or if he was just going to be mean and spiteful, as he usually is. When you two got... intimate... it was Houshi-sama who said we should leave!"
"You mean, you didn't?!" Kagome growled. Sango cowered.
"I did, but Houshi-sama said it first!!" Sango said. Kagome cooled down a little, but stayed hostile. "And while we were talking, he didn't even touch me!"
"Maybe he had writer's cramp," Kagome said. (A/n: I HATE writer's cramp! That really hurts!) Sango now sent a confused look.
"But Houshi-sama wasn't writing last night," Sango answered.
"No... I mean... maybe his hand was all cramped up!" Kagome answered.
"I don't know... maybe... I guess so... we'll see today," Sango said. Kagome shook her head.
"You forget, Sango, that I have to go home today. Naraku will be attacking tomorrow. Promise me you'll be okay, onegai?" Kagome asked. Sango smiled, and gave her friend a hug.
"I promise. And promise me you'll wait until you are ready to have pups. Don't have Inuyasha force you," Sango said, with a grin.
"NANI?!"
"You forget that dog demons howl."
*~*~*
In the future, with the reincarnated Kagome
"I wonder if she's okay..." Kagome wondered out loud. She allowed Inuyasha to stay in the well house for awhile, just until tomorrow, when the new battle would commence, and she'd most likely disappear.
"Feh. I wouldn't let her die this time," Inuyasha said. Somehow, after meeting his old self, he took most of his old habits back with him. "Besides, she'll be in her time."
"Sure, but still.. I can't help but be worried about my past life!" Kagome said. "Wait... why's everything all white?"
"Kagome no baka. It's not white. Hell, it's not even light outside! What did you eat when we were in the Sengoku Jidai?!" Inuyasha asked, as he turned around to look fully at Kagome. He gasped when he saw her...
*~*~*
"Kagome-sama, promise me that you will return safely," Miroku said, with a solemn smile. "You are an angel that Inuyasha needs."
"Arigato, Miroku-sama. I promise I will return. Inuyasha, you better not forget about me," Kagome said, smiling.
"I won't. Oi! Bousu (a/n: did i spell that right?)! Get that dummy that Kagome brought! We might need it later," Inuyasha said. Kagome hugged each one of her friends, and gave her mate a kiss on the lips.
"Promise me you'll come and get me," Kagome whispered. Inuyasha nodded. "I want to stay in the Sengoku Jidai with you."
Inuyasha's eyebrows perked up when he heard this. "Are you sure?"
"Hai. Positive. I'll have to go back to my time to visit my family and what not, and to get you some more ramen, but I'll stay forever here," Kagome said, kissing him again, and jumping into the well.
"JA NE!" Was heard before Kagome's voice disappeared.
