Chapter 9 - It's Not What You Think!
Kagome slowly walked up the shrine steps. She tried to avoid the sunlight that was practically right above her. Unfortunately, she couldn't. 'Why do we have to go to school on Saturdays? Why couldn't our school system be like the Americas? Well, at least school on Saturdays don't extend beyond noon,' thought Kagome, as she finally reached the top of the stairs. She looked around for signs of Inuyasha before she realized that he hasn't been there this whole week. 'Guess I have to fetch him now.' [^_^;] After dropping off her school bag in her room, she headed back to the Feudal Ages.
~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~
Inuyasha was sitting on his branch on the Goshinboku. He had been trying to avoid his friends as much as possible the entire week, especially the little kitsune. He had considered going back to Kagome's time, but knew that he'd distract her from her studies. So he merely stayed outside as much as possible to avoid any ridicule.
~*~~*~ Flashback starts ~*~~*~
"You were actually able to give Kagome-sama her birthday kiss?" asked the monk, a little louder than he intended. It had taken him a while to get over the shock after seeing the hanyou's face.
"Did you kiss her on the lips?" asked Shippou.
"Inuyasha, did you really-" However, Inuyasha cut Sango off before she could finish.
"Shaddup already!!!" shouted Inuyasha, at the top of his lungs. There was almost complete silence except for the birds trying to fly away as fast as they could from the forest.
"So did you really?" Shippou piped up, but he only received a very deep and scary growl from the hanyou before he stalked away. The kitsune was hiding behind Miroku's head who was just as scared. There was silence that lasted for quite a while.
"Meow." Everybody looked down at Kirara, who had just arrived. She was looking at everyone, with an apparent look of confusion on the youkai's face. Sango leaned down so that Kirara could jump onto her shoulders, then went to face the other two.
"Would you guys like to wait for Kagome-chan to come back and find out what happened?" asked Sango.
"Yeah!" shouted Shippou while Miroku merely smiled. They started to walk back towards the village while the hanyou in hiding continued to growl at hearing the ending of their conversation.
~*~~*~ Flashback ends ~*~~*~
Inuyasha's head popped up. 'That's right! I can't let Kagome face the others!' thought the hanyou. Before he could think of any plans, his nose caught a familiar scent in the air. At the same time, he could hear his friends walking closer towards the well's clearing. Acting fast, he jumped down from his tree and ran towards the well.
Kagome was already out of the well by the time Inuyasha reached the clearing. He kept running until he stopped right in front of her.
"Inuyasha, what's wrong?" asked a concerned Kagome.
"Nothing. Let's go back right now."
"But I just got here and I wanted to see minna."
"But aren't we in a hurry for that trip?"
"Seeing everybody won't be that long-" Kagome stopped when she heard the sounds of the rings on Miroku's staff getting closer and closer. 'Kuso,' thought Inuyasha. At this, the hanyou grabbed Kagome's hands and started walking towards the well.
"Inuyasha, what are you doing? I wanted to see minna!" complained Kagome.
"I told you we don't have time."
"Let me go right now!"
"Keh!"
"Osuwari!" However, as Inuyasha hadn't let go of her hands, Kagome went down with him. Inuyasha was surprised to feel something soft hit his back after he faced his beloved ground. It was at that time that the group decided to make their entrance.
"Kagome!" squealed Shippou. He was running halfway across the clearing before finally realizing what was in front of him. The two humans and three youkais were slowly taken in the sight in front of the well. There was Inuyasha, in the usual position after being sat. However, Kagome was on top of him this time. And to top it all off, they seemed to be holding hands. Silence overcame the group once again that week before Miroku spoke up.
"Why, Kagome-sama. I didn't know you were like that," stated the monk. The miko tried to get up at that statement, but simply fell back on top of the hanyou. She suddenly realized that Inuyasha had also reacted to Miroku's statement, by tightening his grip on her hands. She tried to twist it out before giving up her futile efforts.
"Inuyasha, will you let me go now so that I may stand up?" Inuyasha was shock and loosened his grip. 'I didn't even realized that,' thought Inuyasha. He sat up straight since the spell had seemed to work itself off already. He found Shippou in Kagome's arms and the rest were standing right in front of them.
"Would you like to explain yourself?" Miroku asked the hanyou. At this, he did his usual "Keh!"
"Daijoubu, Kagome-chan?" asked the concern Sango.
"Don't worry. I'm fine."
"Kagome! We think Inuyasha gave you a birthday kiss. Is that right?" asked Shippou. The group gave Kagome the same reaction as her faced redden.
"NANI??????"
"Iie! Iie! It's not what you think!" shouted Kagome, blushing more at the same time.
"Of course not. Especially since it was YOU who did the kissing," said Inuyasha, directing his statement towards the miko but facing away from her.
"EH??????"
"Osuwari!!!"
*thud*
"What was that for!?!"
"Bakayarou! It was a damn stupid peck on your cheek that meant nothing!"
"Urk!"
"That's it! I'm going back! Ja ne!" With that, she let Shippou jump back to the ground and make a quick turn to jump into the well. Inuyasha laid shock on the ground.
"Wait!" Inuyasha jumped up from where he was and straight into the well.
"Inuyasha-sama. You still have a lot to learn," said Miyoga from the top of Kirara's head. Everybody nodded in agreement as they ponder what was happening in the future.

Minna - everybody
Bakayarou - stupid jerk

A/N: *pouts* I didn't get as much reviews as usual... Why is that? Is it because I took a break over the weekend? Why? Why? *sigh* I'm three weeks behind on my readings and I have a presentation on those readings this week... Too much work...
~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~
Ms. Prongs - I already said all I have to say in review for ch2 of your fanfic. Don't really feel like typing all that again... =\ Although, I think I prefer Every Heart by BoA...
Isuki-chan - Thank you! Although, I still think they are OOC at times... Not exactly sure why though... Yeah! I'm in your favorites!!! =D
Chris-Redfield26 - Aww, poor ferret... Poor sis also... Got an Inuyasha plushy for me???
Ame Tenshi - Don't think so... Sorry!
Higurashi Kagome - Your sis, eh? Alright... LOL! I don't think I can shut Inuyasha's mouth. I think I may have added some of my own personality in him; and mixed with his, that's a pretty bad combo...
Lordofthefat - Thank you!!!
~*~~*~~*~~*~~*~
