Chapter 3-A maid's paradise.
Kagome's POV

Inuyasha and I stayed up all night that night that we met. We talked and found out a lot about eachother. It seemed the more I learned about him, the more I liked him. But the more I liked him, the more depressed I got. Even if he DID like me back (which I doubted) it would never work out.besides he's betrothed to Kikyou.

"I'm really starting to like you Kagome. You're the only one I can really talk to, that listens to me. I'm always trying to talk to the castle people but their always too busy. Even Miroku Is too busy.usually just groping the girls or cleaning." Inuyasha said while staring deep into my eyes, which made me blush. I looked away.

"yes. I know what you mean, Inuyasha. Mama, Grandpa and Souta are too busy in their lives to pay attention to me except to tell me to clean" I said while staring at the floor and wishing my blush would go away.and I'm starting to like you too Inuyasha." I said before he cut me off. He moved fast and he kissed me on the lips.

"Woops, I'm sorry Kagome.I don't know where that came from.." he said.

"That's.umm ok Inuyasha." I said while we both looked in opposite directions.blushing furiously. "Well I've got to be.going. I umm need to go to bed," I said while ducking out of his room as fast as I could.

Inuyasha's POV

I sat there staring at the door to my room thinking about what I had just done. I had just given my first kiss to someone.and it was her first kiss too.she told me she hadn't kissed anyone before. But I don't quite know what came over me. She just looked so beautiful.I couldn't help myself. Gosh I'm starting to sound like Miroku!!

I went to bed a little after that. In the morning I woke up to singing. I didn't want to move.so I could hear whoever it was, sing.it was beautiful.

"I never knew I could feel like this.

like I've never seen the sky I want too badly to vanish inside your kiss.. Listen to my heart Can you hear it sing Telling me to give you everything Seasons may change Winter to spring But ill love you.until the end of time"

Then I sat up. "That was beautiful." I said.startling whoever sang it. My eyes focused and saw who it really was.. Kagome.

"ohhh I'm sorry for waking you up Inuyasha.ill try to be quieter."

"No no no Kagome. That was wonderful. I wish you would sing for me more often!"

"well, I thought you were asleep.so I decided that I could do it.if you couldn't hear it." she said.

"Why wouldn't you want met to hear it?" I asked with a hint of confusion lit on my face.

"Cuzitsforyou" she mumbled before running out of the room.

Wow.that kiss last night must have affected her.maybe as much as if affected me.but I then noticed Kikyou who was standing in the door way.

"Hello sweetheart. Sleep well? Looks like your maid did a good job!" she said while gesturing to my room.that was spotless.

"Yea." I said while staring off into space again.

"What's gotten into you, Inuyasha? Your acting strangely."

"I am not" I replied.

"Well whatever it is.. I'm going to find out."

I didn't quite take her threat seriously. I mean.what's there to find out?

Kagome's POV

That night after I fled Inuyasha.after he kissed me I was smiling so wide. I got to the maid's quarters and Sango stopped me.

"what's up Kagome? What's with the 100 watt smile?"

"ohh.nothing." said trying to hide my smile.but to no avail.

"tell me Kagome! I'm your best friend!"

"I'm sorry Sango.I really am I just can't." I said.and felt a stab In my heart at the look Sango gave me.

"oh.ok." She said with a hurt look.

As much as I wanted to. I couldn't tell her I had a crush on the prince. I would get kicked out.Inuyasha.I don't know what would happen to him. But I'd have to leave him.probably never to see him again..i couldn't do that.I just couldn't tell her.

So the next morning at dawn I walked up to Inuyasha's room. He was still asleep so I decided to sing a song I had heard somewhere.called "come what may". And I kind of sung it to him.thinking he was asleep anyway. After I had sung the first verse Inuyasha sat up in his bed.he was awake. And I had never been more embarrassed and he liked it too!.

I can't believe I actually even told him that the song was for him!!!! My gosh!

After I ran out of his room I saw the King and remembered that I had to stay in Inuyasha's room all day. Except for at lunch or whatever. So with all my courage I walked up to his door and opened it.

He was sitting at his window.singing.

"your love your love your love is on my mind."

he didn't sing much but it was beautiful.

"umm.Hi Inuyasha" I said.

"hey Kagome" he said.his eyes twinkling.

"why are you in such a good mood?" I asked as I sat down on his neatly made bed.

"you'll see." he said smirking.

He was soooooo cute. I couldn't help it.my heart was practically melting. He walked over and kissed me again. I was so sure he liked me after that, my heart was beating so fast.
