Well, Well, Well, Now here we are at chapter 5,
What will happen now?
Hmm... well i suppose the only way for you to find out is to read what i have so cleverly
written below!
I am happy to say, that even though I thought the last chapter(chapter 4 for all of you who can't do the math) wasn't that great, it still brought in some good reviews!!!
And remember! When the story is finished, their will be a whole entire page dedicated to you, my adoring fans(and even my not so adoring ones!)
Well I think that I shall make it clear, once again that I do NOT own Inuyasha, in fact, I own very little, now that a great deal of what I thought was mine was so rudely detained by my mother and, ehem step-father *hint-hint* when I made the fabo desision of moving in with my great daddy...umm...yeah...
Ok well, ON WITH CHAPTER 5!!!!

Chapter 5: Back to the real world
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome had found herself, at one point, wishing that the whole thing with her mom and Takato was just one big horrible night mare that she was about to wake up from any second. But now that the situation had brought Inuyasha and herself closer together, she hoped it was real, and if it was only a dream, she hoped to never wake up.
As she and Inuyasha walked back to Keade's, hand in hand, they both had smiles plastered on their faces, not necessarily big ones, but smiles with a sense of relief, happiness, and accomplishment. They didn't even realize that the others may be shocked by their now affectionate nature towards each other, it just felt so natural to them.
When they came into the vicinity of Keade's hut they found a common site;
Sango, Shippo, Kirara and Miroku sitting around a fire, just out site Keade's hut, though Miroku wasn't exactly sitting, it was more like he was cowering in fear on the opposite side of the fire from a rather pissed off looking Sango, while he was tenderly rubbing his own cheek. Shippo on the other hand was sitting happily next to Kirara, while eating.
The site almost made Kagome laugh out, it was just so typical, and predictable at that. She glanced at Inuyasha and smirked. Everything was perfect.
~~~
Inuyasha felt as though a wave of relief flooded every inch of him, he had rarely, if ever, felt so content in his life. He had Kagome and everything was right, nothing could go wrong now, he could feel it.
He saw the smirk Kagome had given him, and looked up at Keade's hut, only to see what had made her do so, he smirked in return, it had been a funny site, Kiroku had obviously over stepped his boundaries with Sango once again, as he know looked somewhat battered.
~~~
Still, Kagome and Inuyasha walked together to camp, hand in hand, only stopping when
Sango said "Finally! We were beginning to think you would never get back."
Suddenly all eyes were on Kagome and Inuyasha's clasped hands. The moment they realized this the let go of each other and separated slightly, when the question arose,
"Is there something you want to tell us?" Miroku asked slyly, forgetting about the somewhat painful ordeal that Sango had put him, or rather, what he had put himself through earlier that evening.
Now everyone was looking at them with interest.
"Why can't you people just stay out of other people's business, huh?" He asked rudely as sat in his favorite position of crossed legs and arms.
"So," Miroku began,"You ADMIT that something DID happen!"
"Feh!" Inuyasha replied trying to sound as rude as possible.
~~~
Kagome tried her hardest to suppress a laugh, Inuyasha was so defensive! But she understood that he wasn't quite ready to share their relationship with the group just yet, and she respected it, he wasn't the kind of guy that shows affection in public. Which, she thought, was a good thing, I mean, look at Miroku!
Kagome just shook her head slightly and took a seat next to Sango, who immediately said,"Kagome, you look like you could use a nice bath, what do you say?"
Kagome realized that it was obviously because Sango wanted to hear the story, figuring that Kagome would tell, if away from the boys. But, she still hadn't really had a chance to wash the tears that had dried on her face, so she turned to Sango and said,"Sure sounds good to me."
~~~~
After the girls were out of site, Miroku stood up, calmly dusted himself off, and started in the direction that the girls had gone.
"And just where the hell do you think you're go-in?" Inuyahsa asked somewhat pissed off sense he already knew the answer.
"Oh, my apologies, Inuyasha, do you wish to come as well?" Miroku asked innocently.
Miroku looked at the VERY pissed off expression on Inuyasha's face and said "No?" he started to turn"OK well i shall be on my wa-" he was cut off as he realized that Inuyasha's hand clenched his wrist, Inuyasha was sitting cross legged, eyes closed, basically in the same position he was before, minus one out stretched arm.
"No," he said calmly, " I really don't think you will."
"Well then," Miroku tried not to look too disappointed, " I suppose I shall just have to interrogate you until you tell me what happened between you and Kagome."
"Hmph" Inuyasha replied as if to say "go ahead and try, but good luck trying to get anything out of me."
~~~~
Mean while, at the stream, Sango began to question Kagome.
"Kagome?" She asked timidly,"What exactly happened? I mean, its not everyday we see you and Inuyasha walking around hand in hand like its no big deal!"
"Oh, hu, that" she said trying to sound as if she was only barley understanding what Sango was talking about.
"Well?" she asked impatiently.
"I, um tripped," she lied, and badly,"And Inuyasha had grabbed for my hand and forgot to let go." She knew that Sango would NEVER believe it, but she had to try something.
"Yeah," she said unbelievingly, "And why weren't you on his back, like you usually are? I mean, you could have gone a whole lot faster, and how does someone "forget" to let go of someone's hand?"
"Inuyasha wanted to talk to me about what happened last night." she said calmly, completely forgetting that Sango had no idea about her walk with Inuyasha the night before.
"About last night? What do you mean? Did something ELSE happen before you showed up?" Sango asked, with knew found curiosity.
"No, what happened after you...were...all," she turned her head and finished the sentence by saying,"asleep..." she realized the huge and idiotic mistake she had just made, Miroku and Sango had no clue about Kagome's walk with Inuyasha, and here she was, bringing it up like it was common knowledge or something, she could have kicked herself.
"Excuse me?" Sango asked," And what exactly happened after we all went to sleep? hmm?"
"Uh-uh umm nothing?" It was almost as if she was asking Sango if "nothing" was an acceptable answer, which it, of course, wasn't.
"Ok Kagome" Sango stated firmly," I know SOMETHING happened, I just want to know what!"
"Fine," Kagome said reluctantly" Well, we went on a little walk..."
"Were you holding hands?" Sango asked it in a manor both taunting and eager.
"RRGH! Yes! ALRIGHT! You happy?" Kagome somewhat reluctantly spilled, but she had to admit, it felt good to be able to tell SOMEBODY what happened.
"Well then what?" She was really getting interested, she knew that there had to be something more interesting to the story other than them holding hands.
"Well ok," Kagome proceeded to tell Sango the entire story about her and Inuyasha's walk the night before.
"So THATS why you slept soo late today!" Sango replied, happy that she figured it out.
"Yeahh--" Kagome stretched her reply in a somewhat mocking manner.
"So," Sango still had one more question, and she wasn't going to let Kagome leave until it was answered." Why exactly did you have a smile plastered on your face when you showed up back at camp? I know that it involved Inuyasha because he was smiling too!" then she added," I am not letting you leave until you tell me."
Upon her saying this, Kagome realized that it had been a LONG time sense she had last eaten, because so much had happened she hadn't really noticed before now. 'So,' she thought,' The sooner I spill to Sango, the sooner I can eat... Works for me.'
"Well, if you must know, it was because Inuyasha pulled me into a long passionate kiss." she put extra emphasis on the words "long" and "passionate" just for effect.
Sango's jaw nearly dropped, "You're kidding me!" she exclaimed,"No," she added," You are really kidding me, aren't you?"
"Haha," Kagome laughed, "Well, I told you what happened, so now I think I will go and get something to eat." With that, Kagome got out of the water, dried off, and started back to camp, leaving poor Sango so confused she didn't know what to think.
~~~
(we are now going to rewind a little bit, back to when we left off with Inuyasha and Miroku, Kagome and Sango have just left for the spring)
~~~
"Well, Inuyasha?" Miroku asked impatiently, "What happened? You know I will find out eventually, so you might as well just tell me now and save yourself some aggravation!"
All through their argument, little Shippo was just sitting with Kirara, and listening curiously.
"Why do you assume something "happened" anyways," Inuyasha asked, rather annoyed.
"Oh come off it Inuyasha!" Miroku exclaimed in a surprisingly calm tone. "It's a little late for you to say that! I mean, you have already made such a big thing out of not telling me that it is just all too obvious that something DID in fact happen! So quit playing dumb and tell me!"
"Hmm," Inuyasha looked like he was debating on weather or not to give in to Miroku's demands, then he said, "Nah, I don't think I will tell you anything, its too much fun watching you get so upset about it!"
Miroku let out a large sigh and said," You are utterly hopeless, Inuyasha," but then an idea came to his head, he would let Inuyasha think he had figured it all out,by saying something that was probably completely unlikely, and then let Inuyasha "convince" him about what really happened. A smile crept onto his lips as he turned to Inuyasha and said, "I know why you are being so protective of this subject, obviously you think you went a little too far with Kagome, if you know what I mean that is, and so, you think that telling us would be embarrassing for both you and Kagome."
Inuyasha raised an eyebrow at this and was about to speak when he was cut off by Shippo asking,"What do you mean "went a little too far with Kagome", did they get lost or something?"
Miroku acquired a flustered look, he had forgotten all about little Shippo who had been so quietly listening to their entire conversation.
"Well," Inuyasha said, almost laughing, "Aren't cha gonna tell him?"
"Umm," Miroku said while deliberating as to how he should exactly handle this, "It's uh, it's a grown up term that you are never to repeat in front of the girls," then he added defiantly,"End of discussion."
"Hmmph!" was Shippo's reply and he crossed his arms and had a rather upset look on his face, it wasn't HIS fault that he was so young!
"Well, Inuyasha," Miroku started,"I still stand firmly behind what I just said!"
"I am sure you do," Inuyasha replied calmly," and I am also sure that you will be in for the beating of your life once Shippo repeats to the girls what you just said."
Miroku lifted up his finger and opened his mouth as if to say something, but then he changed his mind and rested his head on his hand which was resting on his knee and said,"Fine, Inuyasha, you won THIS battle, but the war isn't over yet!"
Though Inuyasha heard everything that the monk had just said, his only reaction was grabbing a piece of rabbit meat that looked to be about done cooking over the fire, then he settled himself down to enjoy his dinner.
~~~
(now that we are all caught up with the times, we can continue with the story!!!)
~~~
Shortly after Miroku and Inuyasha's little "conversation" had ended, Kagome showed up, grabbed a piece of rabbit meat, and found herself a seat by the fire.
"Kagome," Miroku said looking around," Where's Sango? Did you get into a fight?" He asked disappointed, knowing that if they had fought, he had missed it.(PERVERT!!!)
"NO!" Kagome exclaimed,"Of course not! She should be coming any second now, I just left early because I haven't eaten since before I came here yesterday." Then she added," It was nice to actually have a bath WITHOUT you, this time Miroku."
"What!?" He sounded shocked, "Are you implying that I, a MONK, would dare spy on two bathing women?"
"Actually, Miroku," she added curtly,"Thats EXACTLY what I am implying." She began to eat away happily at her rabbit meat, though, she would have preferred something from her own time, 'oh well,' she thought,' I will just have some tomorrow.'
"Hey, Kagome," Little Shippo asked innocently.
"Yeah Shippo?" Kagome asked as a horror struck look crept onto Miroku's face, and a smirk onto Inuyasha's.
"What does it mean to "go a little too far" with someone?"
With a slightly surprised and confused face, Kagome said, "Wha-what do you mean, Shippo? Where did you get that?!" She wasn't very happy, especially with Miroku, who had an all to guilty expression in his face.
"Well Miroku said that-"
"Shippo is just a little child, Kagome! Don't be angry with him!" Miroku cut in.
"Oh, you don't have to worry about Shippo, Miroku," She said somewhat angrily," I personally you should be more concerned with yourself!" Then she added sweetly, "What were you saying Shippo?'
"Well, Miroku said that he thought that "Inuyasha went a little too far with you"."
"Oh, he did, did he?" She was pissed off, very pissed off. Inuyasha settled back into his seat comfortably until Kagome asked "And what did Inuyasha say, Shippo?"
"Well," he saw the angry look he was getting at Inuyasha, "He- he didn't really answer..."
"I see," she said, and then she added," Well, Miroku, I guess you had better start running, because by the time I am through with you, you won't be going anywhere for a while!!!" Miroku took head to her warning and took off running, with Kagome following close behind.
Inuyasha let out a sigh of relief, Kagome didn't seem bothered with him, then he settle in and watched as she planted a punch right in his stomach, before walking back to the fire, looking very dignified and happy with herself. Miroku decided it best not to return to the fire until he saw Sango approach, entirely unaware of what had just happened.
When Sango reached the fire and saw Miroku creeping back to his seat by the fire she asked,"What happened here?"
"Oh nothing,"Kagome replied not looking up from the food she was still eating,"I just taught Miroku a lesson in speech edict around small children."
"And from the pained look on Miroku's face," she said looking over at him, "I'd say that lesson included a rather hard punch in the stomach?"
"Yup," she replied, still distracted by her food. (WHAT!?! She hadn't eaten in over 24hrs... you would be hungry too!)
Sango let out a little laugh and said,"Well, whatever it is you did, Miroku, I am sure you deserved what you got!"
Miroku scowled at Sango.
It wasn't much later that Shippo had fallen asleep nestled next to Kirara, Sango decided to take them inside Keade's hut, and when she didn't return back to the fire, everyone just assumed that she had gone to sleep.
Miroku then announced,"Though it has been fun being ignored and scowled at, I think I shall retire." He left before either of them had a chance to say "good night".
So... Now it was just the two of them, Kagome felt a nervous flutter in her stomach, while Inuyasha just plain had no idea what he should do, he did NOT want to mess up with Kagome.
Kagome laughed at herself in her mind and thought,'Look at us! Here we are just sitting here, 50 miles apart, like two scared and lost puppies!', though her laugh was on the inside, she couldn't retain her smile. When Inuyasha saw it, he felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He then sat closer to Kagome, but not too close, he practically went ridged as a board when she leaned onto his arm and held it, but that didn't last long, as he soon found himself pulling her in closer to kiss her.She circled her arms around his neck, and he had his arms wrapped tightly behind her back.
Once again, they were over whelmed by their captivating kiss. Inuyasha pulled her close, supporting her head with one hand, he pulled her closer, as close as he could, exploring her mouth with his tounge. It was as if he was trying to force themselves to become one. Kagome was equaling enthrawled in their kiss, she carressed his fangs with her tounge as she explored the vicinity of his mouth with her tounge. They were locked within each others carress, they didn't want to let go of each other.
There kiss only stopped when Inuyasha heard something coming from Keade's hut, his suspicions were confirmed when he saw two pairs of eyes starring intently at him and Kagome.
"They watching?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha nodded his head "yes".
"Ahhw, just let em watch"Kagome said as she pulled him in to another kiss.

Shortly after Miroku and Inuyasha's little "conversation" had ended, Kagome showed up, grabbed a piece of rabbit meat, and found herself a seat by the fire.

"Actually, Miroku," she added curtly,"Thats EXACTLY what I am implying." She began to eat away happily at her rabbit meat, though, she would have preferred something from her own time, 'oh well,' she thought,' I will just have some tomorrow.'

"Oh nothing,"Kagome replied not looking up from the food she was still eating,"I just taught Miroku a lesson in speech edict around small children."
"And from the pained look on Miroku's face," she said looking over at him, "I'd say that lesson included a rather hard punch in the stomach?"
"Yup," she replied, still distracted by her food. (WHAT!?! She hadn't eaten in over 24hrs... you would be hungry too!)
Sango let out a little laugh and said,"Well, whatever it is you did, Miroku, I am sure you deserved what you got!"
Miroku scowled at Sango.
It wasn't much later that Shippo had fallen asleep nestled next to Kirara, Sango decided to take them inside Keade's hut, and when she didn't return back to the fire, everyone just assumed that she had gone to sleep.
Miroku then announced,"Though it has been fun being ignored and scowled at, I think I shall retire." He left before either of them had a chance to say "good night".
So... Now it was just the two of them, Kagome felt a nervous flutter in her stomach, while Inuyasha just plain had no idea what he should do, he did NOT want to mess up with Kagome.
Kagome laughed at herself in her mind and thought,'Look at us! Here we are just sitting here, 50 miles apart, like two scared and lost puppies!', though her laugh was on the inside, she couldn't retain her smile. When Inuyasha saw it, he felt as if a huge weight had been lifted off his shoulders. He then sat closer to Kagome, but not too close, he practically went ridged as a board when she leaned onto his arm and held it, but that didn't last long, as he soon found himself pulling her in closer to kiss her.She circled her arms around his neck, and he had his arms wrapped tightly behind her back.
Once again, they were over whelmed by their captivating kiss. Inuyasha pulled her close, supporting her head with one hand, he pulled her closer, as close as he could, exploring her mouth with his tounge. It was as if he was trying to force themselves to become one. Kagome was equaling enthrawled in their kiss, she carressed his fangs with her tounge as she explored the vicinity of his mouth with her tounge. They were locked within each others carress, they didn't want to let go of each other.
There kiss only stopped when Inuyasha heard something coming from Keade's hut, his suspicions were confirmed when he saw two pairs of eyes starring intently at him and Kagome.
"They watching?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha nodded his head "yes".
"Ahhw, just let em watch"Kagome said as she pulled him in to another kiss.
