Chapter 12

That Time of the Month

It has been 4 day's since Kagome's father visited, and she's been brighter then ever! School was over for the weekend and she was sitting on the couch with the gang, her father, and brother, all watching a movie called 'The Change'. It was now 6:00 and the sun was setting. InuYasha got up, and walked out of the room, and outside. Kagome blinked after him.

Kagome stood up and walked out after him, "I'll be right back," she said and shut the door behind her.

She followed InuYasha deep into the woods. He reached a clearing just as the sun became no more. Kagome watched as his ears vanished, and his claws went, his hair became black as the night, and when he turned to look at Kagome, his eyes were violet. Kagome stepped back, as InuYasha stared in amazement.

InuYasha blink, then turned all the way standing clear view in front of her, "Inu...Yasha," she chocked, and he was silent.

He turned and walked to a tree before sitting down, "That's me..." he said, he closed his eyes and crossed his arms waiting for Kagome reaction. Kagome felt her heart race, she walked over to him and knelt down. She poked his head where his dogs eyes should have been as InuYasha eyed her carefully.

"Where are your ears," she said bluntly, then looked to the side of his head where they were now located.

InuYasha narrowed his eye, "WHAT'S WRONG," he yelled causing Kagome to fly back.

Kagome became red, "YOU DON'T NEED TO YELL AT ME," she yelled back.

"WELL THEN STOP STARING AT ME LIKE I'M A FREAK."

"But isn't that what you are?" Kagome mumbled causing InuYasha to growl. 'He may not still be a dog demon, but he can growl anytime' she thought to herself.

"GRR...take that back," InuYasha almost yelled.

"Fine fine, IF you tell me why your human," Kagome asked.

InuYasha looked away stubbornly, "Once a month when the moon is not visible, I become human, it's like that with every hanyou," he looked back at Kagome with saddened eyes as if saying he WAS a freak.

Kagome sighed, his eyes were shaky as if trying not to cry. Kagome crawled over to him and sat down beside the hanyou.

"I see...why didn't you say something then?" Kagome questioned.

"It wasn't important," he mumbled looking away and he lifted one knee and rested his arm apon it.

Kagome sighed again.

"It's fine I guess," InuYasha muttered.

Kagome sighed again and looked up into the moonless sky, "How do you do that?" Kagome asked.

InuYasha turned to her with a confused look apon his face, "How do I do what?"

"Confuse me, but at the same time make me feel special," Kagome whispered.

InuYasha turned back, "I could ask you the same," InuYasha muttered and Kagome turned to him. He turned back to her as their eyes meet. Both stayed the same, gazing into each others eyes in amazement and wonder, both not wanting to look away. They became closer and closer, their lips were almost met when...

"KAGOME, INUYASHA," it was Sota. The two loves blushed as they both stood and Sota came it the clearing.

a/n: am I evil, or what...hehe...I told yeah, they aren't getting together that easily...

Sota smiled and ran to Kagome's side, "Come on, Sango made dinner and it's done," Sota said and started to pull the two home.

When they got there the table was set with spaghetti.

Kagome laughed, "Not once in the 4 months I've lived here have you cooked any type of dinner," Kagome said still laughing. Sango glared at her but then turned to Herro and smiled.

With a sweet yet firm voice came "SIT," everyone ran to a chair and were waiting for food.

Sango smiled, she was at the very end, on her right was Miroku, on her left was InuYasha, beside InuYasha was Kagome, and beside Kagome was Sota and beside Miroku was Herro.

All ate in silence until Herro spoke, "So what did you two do in the woods," he asked eyeing the two.

The two blush and looked at each other, Kagome swallowed her food and turned back to her father, "Talked," she said 'and almost kissed' she thought the second half.

Herro was about to say something when Sango spoke, "AHH, INUYASHA, I FORGOT, the moon isn't here tonight," Sango yelled. Everyone turned there attention to the black haired InuYasha, who glared at Sango.

Kagome's father cocked and eyebrow, "Why is your hair black," he asked.

InuYasha gulped and looked to Kagome for help, and she looked to Miroku, who looked to Sango, who was mentally hitting herself for bring it up.

InuYasha sighed, "I... dyed it, that's what Kagome and me were doing," he said, hoping to Isis that he believed it.

To everyone's surprise he nodded and smiled, "I see, that makes sense," he said and took another bite of his spaghetti.

"It does?" Miroku asked and was hit in the side by Sango's elbow, "I mean, yes...it does."

"Dawm, and I was looking forward to grandchildren," Herro said as everyone fell sideways and off their chairs.

a/n: you all probably hate me, because this is so short, and because they didn't kiss...sorry, I thought about it, then decided that that wouldn't be any fun... hehe he..bye bye… besides, if I had them kiss, you would all loose intrest, and stop reading, plus if they do get together, then the fun will never start…
