This can't be Happening!

Jamie: Welcome to the fourth chapter. I hope you're still interested, not bored. Well R&R!

Feudal Era

Inu Yasha felt relief as he climbed a branch. Finally out of Miroku's grasp. Miroku had made Inu Yasha swim, which he was resentful of doing. Then he had made Inu Yasha get firewood. Small twigs to branches. His hands were blistered, but luckily Kagome hand bandaged them.

His heart began to beat clumsily against his ribcage. He could still feel it. Kagome's soft hands, gently touching his rough palms. Her sad eyes, staring at them. She never let go of his hand as she nursed his wounds. She had whispered such kind words. He hadn't thought once of the dream until now.

He yawned and used his hands as a pillow. His eyelids were already closed once he was comfortable.

Everything went at warp speed. The breeze running over his bare chest. The sweet scent as he sat on the edge of the bed. But his dream slowed down now that his hand was gliding over her chest up to her scarf. She untied her hair. Black, sensual hair streamed over her shoulders. He reached up and stared up in her eyes. He began pulling the soft purple scarf from her face. Finally her face became visible-

Inu Yasha bolted straight up, the dream melting from view.

"AH!" he yelped, "Kagome!"

He could still see her face. She smiled down at him.

"No," he gulped. He was too nervous to fall back asleep. He didn't want to know what would happen next. He didn't want to know what they were going to do. But he couldn't help it. He couldn't have been asleep more then a half an hour. Sleep caught up to him, once again he faced Kagome's face.

He reached up and placed his hands on her cheek. She leaned down and ran her tongue over his lips. Inu Yasha took her tongue into his mouth. They French kissed, slowly and passionately. She forced him onto his back and crawled on top of him.

Once again Inu Yasha sat straight up, sweat drenching his body. He was trembling. Half of him wanted to go back to sleep. His hanyou half wanted to go back into the enticing dream. It wanted to keep going. But then his youkai half wanted to stay awake. It knew the consequences of falling asleep. He knew that he would have dreams about Kagome, what would he do in real life?

He stared, half awake, half asleep at the sky that night.

"Inu Yasha?" Miroku whispered. The moon was shining over the creek. Inu Yasha nearly fainted out of fear. Hearing his name made his stomach twisted.

"It's just me," Miroku had a candle.

"What do you want?" Inu Yasha was in a bad mood from lack of sleep.

"Why aren't you sleeping!" Miroku growled.

"I can't," Inu Yasha frowned.

"Why not?" Miroku wondered.

"I don't know," he didn't want to tell Miroku why. He knew what the monk's reaction would be.

"Ok, well try and sleep," Miroku frowned and walked away.

Inu Yasha's eyes watered. How long could he go without sleep? He could only test his strength.

Morning drifted into sight. Inu Yasha woke from sleep. He yawned, his heart sped up.

He fell asleep!

But he couldn't remember what he dreamt about.

"Maybe I didn't dream," he shrugged. He jumped from the tree branch and landed on the his feet. He stretched as he walked back to the campgrounds. He saw the three, and without thinking he sat next to Kagome.

"You awaken without need of scowling," Sango chuckled. Inu Yasha chuckled. He wasn't thinking right now, he had been up a long time, and was still sleepy. He looked around dumbly and then caught Kagome's eyes and passed out.

Moments later Inu Yasha woke up in a daze. He looked around, first at Miroku, then at Sango.

"Huh?" he blinked a couple times. Kagome came back.

"It's probably from his lack of-" she saw Inu Yasha was awake, "Inu Yasha are you alright?"

Inu Yasha stared at her wide-eyed and then sped off.

"Wow he's fast," Miroku stared, his hand shielding the sun from his eyes.

"We should go after him," Kagome said while holding her hand to her lips.

"No," Sango frowned, "Let him go."

"Oh Ok," Kagome walked over to the pot of rice and stirred it a bit.

Why does it have to be Kagome?! Why does she have to be then one? Inu Yasha ran quickly through the forest, jumping over the creek onto the other side. He lost his footing and fell, but quickly got back on his two feet. He shook his head. The sun was beating down on him, small beads of sweat formed on his forehead. The sheathed Tetusaiga was beating against his leg as he ran. Finally he stops, but he wasn't far from he began. Inu Yasha had run in a circle. The tree where he'd slept the night before, and the small trickling creek were nearby. He could smell them, hear them.

But he could smell something else.

"Running away won't solve anything," Miroku frowned as he leaned against the tree.

"It was Kagome," Inu Yasha said out of breath.

"What?"

"Kagome was the girl in my dreams!" Inu Yasha yelped.
