Yay! It's Mary's turn to write! Okay… so here's the second chapter ^^

Chapter 2

            Inuyasha walked slowly up to the well… should he really be doing this? Who cares if the others missed Kagome? They'll live… After all, he'd been getting along fine without her, and he was the one who missed her the most…. But he'd never tell that to anyone… No, he didn't have to go get her. He would just go back to Kaede's hut like nothing ever happened.

            So he started walking.

            "Osuwari!"

            Crash.

            "Dammit Miroku, you're as stubborn as I am!"

            "Osuwari!"

            "OKAY! I'M GOING!" Inuyasha jumped through the well as soon as he got a chance to stand, and went on his way. When he climbed out, he was forward in Kagome's time; same thing that always used to happen.

            Without even thinking, he picked up her scent on the slight breeze and headed towards the side of the house where her bedroom window was.

            Kagome sat at her desk in her room, working on her homework. Buyo was lying on his back on top of Kagome's bed, swatting at dust particles floating in the air. Kagome watched him for a while, happy to take a break from algebra, when Buyo suddenly flipped over into a pouncing position and faced the window. He smelled something… a smell that could only mean 'play time' with a certain hanyou. He gave a terrified look out the window and bolted; no way in hell was he going to suffer through being swung around by the paws and being forced to dance.

            "What's wrong with him?" Kagome wondered out loud. She walked over to the open window and looked around. Nothing unusual there… just her back yard, the same way it's been the whole time. When she turned her back though, she didn't notice Inuyasha jump into a tree directly outside her window.

            She sat back down at her desk and continued her algebra problems which were assigned to her over the weekend. Ah, the weekend… her mind wandered over to what her plans were for the two days off from school…

            A thud behind her made her jump. She whipped around and saw Inuyasha standing there, sniffing with a disgusted look on his face.

            "Man, this place still stinks like it used to." He turned to Kagome and added, "Come on. We're going back to my time for a while."

            "What?! You— I haven't seen you in a year— and you think you can just come in through my window and carry me off after you left me for my incarnation? No, I'm sorry, but you can just go back without me and live the rest of your 'happy' life with Kikyo."

            "Are you still mad about that? …Whatever. Look, it's not for me, it's for the others. They used that stupid talk-wrecker thing on me until I agreed to come bring you back to see them. Now come on! I don't have all day!"

            "I can't just up and leave! Let me go tell my mother that I'm—"

            Inuyasha yanked her hard by the wrist and jumped out the window with her. He dragged her all the way back to the well, despite her high-pitched, shrieked protests.

            "I would rather get this over with as soon as I can than wait around for you to tell your mommy about it. Now come on."

            "Osuwari!"

            Crash.

            "What the hell did you do that for?!"

            "I need to tell my mother that I'm going! It's not like a year ago, when it wasn't entirely unexpected of me to just leave without warning. And I think I want to pack some things, too….," Kagome replied as she started walking back to her house and in through the back door. Quite peeved, Inuyasha reluctantly fallowed her to wait inside while she got all her things, not wanting to risk another 'osuwari'.
