Chapter 2 "Inu-chan.I'll stay with you .aishiteru .", Kagome blushed as they embraced each other once more. "Aishiteru, Kagome, promise me you'll never leave me.", Inuyasha nuzzled his face into her silky hair. "I'll never leave you".

"Thank you", he whispered into her ear. He let go of her and took a step back. "Inuyasha.", Kagome said quietly. "What?", he answered and his ears perked upwards. "Let's start making our way back to camp, otherwise the others will get worried", she gave him a bright smile. "But..didn't you have to go back home and study?", he questioned her. "I don't know what you're talking about", she teased him.

She took a hold of his hand and pulled on it, as a signal to start walking. He just gave a slight nod and they started walking back slowly. By the time they got back, the young kitsune was already curled up by the fire, on top of Kagome's sleeping bag. The moon glistened brightly and the fire crackled quietly. It was so peaceful.

"Where is Sango-chan and Miroku-sama", Kagome whispered. Inuyasha gave a slight smirk and pointed to a nearby tree, where the couple was fast asleep, "That's so cute!", Kagome giggled quietly.

The young monk sat with his legs crossed, his back leaning on the tree, while the young woman's head rested comfortably on his shoulder. Miroku stirred slightly and slowly opened his eyes. The young miko noticed this and quickly winked at him. He smiled and closed his eyes once more, falling asleep.

"We should be getting some sleep ourselves", Inuyasha looked towards Kagome, who was now staring at him lovingly. "Can I.", she could feel another blush coming on and she was right. Inuyasha noticed the tint of bright pink she had turned.

".I.um.sleep by you?", Kagome finished, yet now she was the color of a bright red tomato. The young hanyou almost fell over when he heard what she had just asked him. He took his time answering, ".A-alright, but don't expect me to sleep on the ground", he huffed and quickly lifted the young girl into his arms.

She gasped in surprise as he jumped up to the nearest tree branch. Kagome was scared, the branch pretty high in the air. She gulped and tried her hardest not to expose her fear.

"Don't be afraid, I won't let anything happen to you", he said quietly while he removed his upper kimono and put it around her. "Thank you", she replied, putting her arms around his waist and placed her head on his lap. He just put one arm around her protectively and tilted his head back, leaning it against the tree, closing his eyes.

The young miko fell asleep almost immediately. She felt so safe with him. Meanwhile, Inuyasha tried to stay awake for a while, thinking about what happened earlier, and smiling to himself, but he soon dozed off as well.
