Kagome walked up the steps to her house, looking for Inuyasha. She saw Lost Star leaving the shrine at the same time. He waved and said.

"Inuyasha is in the well, he went there, I think he wants to talk to you!" Kagome was prevented from saying anything as he ran off. Fuming she went into the well house and jumped down it looking for Inuyasha.

She climbed out the other side looking around, every time she came here she was amazed at the clean and tranquil surroundings. Kagome walked on, Inuyasha would always hang out in a tree, and she found him in his favorite one. Honestly, she couldn't understand how he liked it here, Kagome had already racked up too many bad memories here and didn't really want to stay. Looking up she waited for him to jump down, he looked down and said.

"Come on up." He said, ears twitching.

"I am not going to turn youkai just to climb a tree!"

"Why?"

"If I change, I will have to change back, and that is getting harder, it is easier to keep human."

Inuyasha dropped down. "You really should learn how to control yourself as a youkai, otherwise we may have problems."

"What?"

Inuyasha sighed and sat down, Kagome sat down in front of him, she barely heard his mumble "Lost Star, if I wasn't so worried about what might happen, I would kill you for making me think about this."

"About what Inuyasha?"

"Well uh.." Inuyasha scratched his head "Do you know why we stoped sleeping together in the first place."

"No, Lost Star just dragged you out, and you never told me."

"You were starting your cycle on that day."

"WHAT!?" Kagome was blushing now. "What does that have to do with anything."

Inuyasha was blushing too "When female youkai go into cycle, they smell different, humans do it too, they smell different, best way to describe what it does to males is to say they get drunk."

"Ok, I think I get it, you didn't want anything we might regret to happen, so you slept outside."

Inuyasha nodded. "That made it easier to deal with."

"Why are you telling me?"

"Well, youkai females get very, violent, in their cycle."

"You mean?" Kagome was now seriously red.

"When you hit yours, unless you have control you will make us both do something we may regret."

Kagome didn't say anything, she was trying to think of what could happen, it was hard enough to keep in control as it was.

"But I'm part human, shouldn't that help?"

"No, that only makes it worse, humans get emotional, youkai are leveler, but their emotions are stronger, half-breeds tend to be explosive. That is what Lost Star says, I agree watching the way you have been acting."

"Hey!" Kagome said, still thinking. "But does that mean we have to stop cuddling, I don't want to do that!"

Inuyasha laughed "If we keep control it wont be a problem, actually cuddling is something that both our breeds do. It helps calm us, and strengthen bonds."

"So thats why you have been so calm talking about this!"

"You would be surprised."

"Ok, now that we have talked about that can we go back now?"

"Not a chance little cat!" Kagome shrieked as Inuyasha pounce on her.

"Hey!" growling playfully they began tumbling Kagome slipping into her cat form tail twitching every now and then. They were both laughing, Kagome chasing after Inuyasha after he had grabbed her tail. "Get back here, I keep telling you my tail is sensitive!"

Inuyasha laughed "Come on lazy! You need a good run!"

Kagome growled and lept after him, the tensions of the day slowly melting away.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----

They were both tired as the sun began to set. It had been fun, they had both chased each other all over the place. Kagome was sitting down happily purring, Inuyasha panting slightly. Kagome stretched and crawled over to Inuyasha, sitting in his lap and petting his ears as they both cooled down. Inuyasha reached up one hand to pet one of the ears, using the other to stroke her back. Kagome nuzzled him, breathing in his scent and purring even deeper, her tail end waving gently. Both were perfectly content. This peace was shattered however by an unearthly shiver, effecting them both. They looked around wildly seperating as Inuyasha looked at the moon in the rapidly approaching darkness.

He growled violently "Sesshoumaru"

"Huh?!"

"My bastard half-brother."
