Uncle Miroku and Aunt Sango were home and we all are dinner. And when I mean, 'we all', I mean, me, Aunt Sango, Uncle Miroku, and….the hanyou. I mean, Inuyasha. He finally told us his name. I have to say, it was a strange name but did kind of suit him I guess. I also have to admit, he was kind of cute! In a rude, sloppy way… Aunt Sango and Uncle Miroku stared at him and his bad eating habits at first, but after a while they got used to it. There was also a little funny part where Uncle Miroku tried to grope Aunt Sango while we were all eating! She said her famous little phrase 'No dear, it's not the time for that!' The funny thing was that Inuyasha and I both sweat dropped and stared at them with the same expression on our faces, at the same time! This was so strange! I wondered who he was and why he was in the woods and everything…I was going to ask him later.
After dinner I was about to ask him a few questions, but he was gone. I tried to go into the forest to look for him, but Aunt Sango said it's too dangerous when it's dark. I sighed and decided to go to bed and find him the next morning. It was strange…why did I want to get to know him all of the sudden? Aunt Sango giggled when I told her I wanted to look for him. This all couldn't mean….that? Could it? What was I thinking!? I just met the guy!
The next morning I woke up without anyone telling me too. Okay, now I was acting strange! Usually I need Uncle Miroku or Aunt Sango to wake me up or I'll wake up at noon… I walked outside and went to the edge of the village where the mysterious blanket of forest began. "Hey, Kagome!" I hear these words from a certain voice and suddenly sweat drop. 'Oh no, not him!' I thought. "Hi, Kouga…" I say to the wolf demon who obsesses over me. He lives in the village and he's a great friend but is always flirting with me. It gets so annoying!! He even says that when we're older, I'll fall for him and be his mate…I don't even know why the village lets him stay here. Probably because he always offers to protect the village… "So, what are you doing up so late? You usually wake up at noon!" he says. See? Even my neighbors know I'm lazy when it comes to waking up. "I have to find a friend…" I reply. "Oh? Why don't you spend the day with me once in a while?" he asks. He can be polite sometimes, in an aggressive way… "Maybe some other time, Kouga." "Okay, then. Be careful, Kagome!" he said as he walked away, but not before he kissed me on the cheek. Keep in mind that this is an irritating daily routine… As he walked away, I heard some growling from behind me. "Who the hell is he?" I hear behind me. "Inuyasha! Where were you yesterday? You just disappeared!" I say as I whirl around. He raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are happy to see me or do you want money?" I sweat dropped. True, I was being a little friendlier today… "Uh…I'm just in a better mood today, I guess…And you didn't answer my question." "I had some business to take care of…" "Okay…" I started to feel a blush creeping on my cheeks. Damn. This did mean that, didn't it? I had a crush on him!! "Err, I have to go, Inuyasha. Bye…" I quickly ran off to take my mind off of it. I didn't like blushing, it felt uncomfortable.
I was about to enter the house when someone tapped my shoulder. "I don't like him, Kagome." I turned around. Who was it? No one but my good friend Kouga… "Why not, Kouga? Hey, were you spying on me?" I asked. "That blush on your face…He's going to take you away from me!" he exclaimed worriedly. That sentence…made me blush even more! "You must stop worrying about me. And while you're at it, spying on me…" "He said he had 'business' to take care of? Well, that business was me! Look!" he said as he took off his wristband made of fur. I saw a big wound, red with blood. I gasped. "But why?" I asked. "Hanyous…They're always trying to prove themselves. He may try to hurt you too, Kagome. And if he doesn't, his family will come back any day now to take him back. They left him here so he wouldn't get hurt in a battle, you know," Kouga said with a worried look on his face that scared me. He took both of my hands in his and said, "I know I'm overprotective of you, Kagome, but I can't let anything bad happen to my future-mate!" I sweat dropped again and smiled. "But I never agreed to being your future-mate, Kouga. And don't worry! Inuyasha won't hurt me. I'll be fine!" I said as I continued to try to get into my house. Before I entered I could hear Kouga mumbling something about how he'll protect me no matter what I said. I smiled at this. He was a good friend…but still, it was so annoying! As I walked in, only one thought remained in my head:
'I love Inuyasha…'
