Chapter 2
"Grandpa, Sota, Mom? Are you here? I guess there not home..." "What?" Inu Yasha wondered, breaking Kagome's thoughts. They climbed out of the well and headed to the main house.
"Guys just sit in here for a second I need to get some yen so we can go." Kagome dropped Shippou on a cushion in one of the couches in her living room. She rounded the corner out the room and went up the flight of stairs to her room.
"Wow, look at all this..." Miroku glared, amazed at all the electric appliances. One thing that really fascinated him was a black box that "magically" showed him what other people were doing at the touch of a button. "Inu Yasha why aren't you looking at anything around here?"
Inu Yasha was imagining the touch of Kagome's hand over his again. She had nice hands; he liked the feeling of them. They were soft. He stared to blush. Deeply. "Hey Inu Yasha, Miroku asked you a question you need to answer. " Shippou yelped breaking the now human Inu Yasha's thoughts.
"Oh I've been here before. That's a television, it's not magical." Inu Yasha answered blandly.
He then got up and headed the same way Kagome did. There were four doors at the top of the stairs. "Which one is Kagome's room?" He chose a door with a bunny on the outside. He slowly turned the knob and saw Kagome bent over going through a drawer. She had changed her clothes. She was wearing a pair of flared jeans and a t-shirt with the word 'bang' on it.
"Oh, Inu Yasha, you scared me. Why aren't you downstairs with Shippou and Miroku?" Kagome whispered.
" I wanted to see you." As he said this he took a step closer to her and grabbed her hand. "Kagome..." She was in utter shock. How was she to act? Hojo only looked at her and gave her gifts for her 'delicate conditions'. (*cough, cough*) Never got close to her or touched her.
"Kagome, I want you to know that I will always protect you and that...I...uh I...that's all." Inu Yasha pulled away realizing he was about to divulge his true feelings...
"Inu Yasha, what was that all about?" Kagome pondered to herself and asked out loud.
"Hn." Was Inu Yasha's response as he left her room.
