Chapter 4

Now what do we do?

When Inuyasha awoke, he and Kagome were still lying in the woods. He saw that they were still "indecent" and put on his Kimono. Since he shredded Kagome's undergarments the night before he had to find some way for her to get dressed. He decided that it was better for her to get dressed back at the hut. He just hoped that the others were still asleep when they arrived. He picked up Kagome, grabbed her clothes and bounded back to the hut.

I

He felt Kagome stir in his arms. She looked up at him with those adoring hazel eyes and smiled.

Kag-Good morning.

She let out a long yawn and gasped when she realized that she was still naked.

Kag-Oh my god! Inuyasha what are you doing? Why am I still naked?

He chuckled softly.

Inu-I'm taking you back to the village to get dressed.

Kag-But I'm still naked!

Inuyasha held her closer so as not to 'reveal' anything to the forest.

Inu-There is that better?

Kag-Real funny. But could I at least put my old clothes back on until we return?

He handed her the bundle of clothes and turned around, so as not to be a pervert for seeing her.in this situation. He turned as red as his kimono as he remembered the night before. He cursed himself for his stupidity and turned around. He found that Kagome was already dressed and ready to go.

Inu-Are you ready to head back now?

Kag-Yes Inuyasha I think I am. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------

Shi-Where are Inuyasha and Kagome?

Mir-I can only imagine.

Miroku gave a playful chuckle and stared off into space dreamily.

San-Stop imagining it you pervert!!

Sango smacked him across the face leaving a crimson red handprint in her wake.

San-That should teach you, you little hentai.

Mir-Jealous are we?

Sango cringed at his remark.

San-Why you little.

Kag-Hey guys! How are you? I.I just came to get my backpack. Well see ya in a bit.

Kagome picked her book bag off the floor and began to walk out the door.

Mir-I knew that they were doing something. See I told you Sango.

San-Grrrrrr. You little Houshi!!!!

---------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------------------------------
The group decided that it would be better to look for shards to get the "edge" off. The silence was obviously getting to them but they tried not to show it. This all went well until Shippo got bored and started to ask questions to keep himself occupied.

Shi-So what were you guys doing in the forest?

Kagome nearly choked on her current breath and Inuyasha turned red once again. Inuyasha walked over to the kitsune and grabbed him by the head.

Kag-Put him down Inuyasha. Why are you always so mean to poor Shippo.

Inu-But..

Kag-NOW!!!!

Inuyasha reluctantly dropped the kitsune and kept walking.

Shi-So what are you guys gonna do next? Are you gonna make Kagome your mate Inuyasha?

Inuyasha pressed his ears flat against his head and kept walking. Kagome just flushed crimson and followed closely behind Inuyasha.

Shi-What did I say?
