The Dog Show

Chapter 4

Inuyasha stared down at the dog before him with a rather unreadable expression. It was small, white, fluffy, and had familiar triangle ears. Kagome had called it a Spitz. Kagome had dragged him into a section that she said only had dogs that were pets. He had argued that if she was looking for a guard dog, then they should stay in that section. That's when her eyes watered up and her lip trembled and he caved in. Damn her and her tears!

"Aren't they cute!" Kagome exclaimed.

"Feh! Whatever." He snorted.

"But they have such cute white hair." She protested. 'I have white hair…' "And look at those adorable triangle ears!" she added. 'She likes triangle ears' "They are so cute and fuzzy, I just want to pet them!" 'Maybe… fucking hell what am I thinking. Of course a girl like her wouldn't want someone like me!' He smiled evilly; even if she wouldn't want him, she had just open herself up…

"So white hair and triangle ears make things cute?" He teased and his smile widened as a blush covered her face.

"Well…I mean…What I was saying…" She sputtered. He leaned closer and did his best to look meaningfully into her eyes.

"What was that Kagome, I don't think I caught that. Are you saying you think I'm cute?" Her blush went all the way to her hairline. The best part was that this was where she would 'sit' him if they weren't in a public place. She would probably make him pay for this later, but for now she settled for grabbing his arm and pulling him to the next ring.

The ring held things Inuyasha would never have called dogs. They had long brown gray hair, tiny half flopped ears, and a set of teeth that probably wouldn't even draw blood. Personally, he thought they looked more like the thing Kagome called a dust mop. Kagome, however, was gushing.

"Yorkshire Terriers are soooooooooooo Cuuuuuutttttttteeeeee! I just want to hug them all!"

"Feh! That is not a dog!" Inuyasha snorted, "It's a fuzzy squirrel or rat or…who the fuck can tell any way with all that useless hair!"

"Oh really Inuyasha! Then why don't you choose what we look at next." Kagome challenged. Inuyasha couldn't back down from a challenge, no matter what it may be.

"Feh! Fine I will!" He replied a marched off in a random direction. Kagome followed him, knowing that he would never find anything to his liking in this section. A smile crept across her face; this was more fun then she had thought it would be. And what leverage! Now she could threaten him with him with 'sits' and telling everyone about modern dogs. But, boy, that would piss him off. And next time the threatened to kill Kouga, she could…

Inuyasha came to a sudden halt, causing Kagome to crash into his back. She started to apologize before she realized he hadn't said a word. She blinked a few times. 'Sense when has Inuyasha ever missed a chance to call me stupid, useless, or weak?' Kagome wondered as she looked around his shoulder. The dogs in the ring answered her question. They where Pomeranians. Red/brown fuzz balls, with cute pointy ears, and a fluffy curled tail.

"First ones that look like wolves, now the Kitsune brat…Gods what have you people done?" Inuyasha asked in a voice that sounded as if he had gone into shock. Kagome covered her mouth to stifle the snicker that was threatening to bubble out.
