Disclaimer: Who gives a crap!? I don't own Inuyasha there I said it!
Chapter 32:
After Kagome once again threw Inuyasha's robe into the wash for the second time this trip they trudged upstairs. "We've gotta get you some...ummm..clothes for around here. That robe can only do so much." She giggled; for once again he was in her grandfather's very short yukata.
"Keh! Really!"
"Nani? You mean you'd let me take you to get regular clothes?" She said happily.
"Huh?"
"Great! Let's go tomorrow after school."
"Go where?"
"To the mall, to go shopping!"
"My clothes are just fine."
"Inuyasha, you have one outfit. Plus when they're getting clean you're stuck wearing this lovely robe." She smirked, "Although I do have to admit I enjoy seeing those legs of yours."
"Nani!?" His eyes grew large and his cheeks turned a shade of red.
"Was my little inu-chan a good boy today?" Kagome said as she ruffled his hair and scratched his ears. He sighed at her touch.
"Damn woman don't call me that!"
"Baka!" She glared at him as she pulled on a furry ear. Inuyasha yelped and pulled away, rubbing his ear.
"They're sensitive you know. That hurt." He pouted.
"Well if you weren't being a jerk I wouldn't have done it. Hmph!"
"Kagome? Are you home?" Her mother's voice called from her room.
"Hai!" She said as she ran into the room. Her mother was looking rather well and Kagome noticed the glass of water, pill bottles, and an empty bowl of ramen on the nightstand. 'He took care of her. I shouldn't have been treating like that. I'll repay him later.' "How you doing?" "Just fine, sweetie." Kagome came and sat beside her on the bed.
"You gave us all quite a scare, Mama."
"Gomen."
"No it's alright. As long as you're okay, that's all that matters." She smiled as she kissed her mother's forehead. "Ano.Mama..do you think you'll be okay here alone at the house if tomorrow Inuyasha and I went out? He really needs some other clothes for around here."
"Oh sure. Go out and have some fun. There's some money in my purse. You can use that."
"Arigato! Do you need some more water?"
"Hai, that would be nice." Kagome headed back downstairs with her hands full of dishes. Inuyasha took a few from her and they both walked carefully down the stairs.
"Arigato Inuyasha. Gomen, I called you a jerk." She pouted.
"Already forgotten. I've been called worse." He said flatly.
"Now, money for tomorrow." She said as she went through her mother's purse. "Ah here we go!"
"You're gonna make me wear weird clothes aren't you?"
"They're not weird, they're normal for this day and age. I'll make sure you're comfortable in them, k?"
"Feh! Whatever."
"Arigato for looking after my mom today. It was very sweet of you. I owe you."
"What?" He said smirking.
"Geez don't make me say it!"
"Oh come on."
"Fine! I'll give you a bath." He smiled and licked her cheek. "Well you know what?"
"Nani?"
"We actually have time to go shopping now and Souta and Grandpa will be here soon. Lemme go tell my mom." She rushed hurriedly upstairs. After a few seconds she came running down the stairs and pulled his still semi-damp robe out of the dryer. "Here throw this on. Okay! Let's go! Uh..how are we gonna get there?" She frowned. Inuyasha leaned down and she got on his back.
"We'll go on the roofs."
"Sounds good." With that they were off to the mall.
"Sango stay back! Dammit!" Miroku cursed as an insect youkai attacked the quiet village. "Shit! Damn grasshopper!"
"Revenge on my brother! Monk you shall die!"
"Did you know your brother was a cross dresser? Not to mention he did make a pretty woman." He sneered. Now he remembered, this was the brother of the grasshopper youkai that tore his kazaana
"Shut up! He was sucked in that black hole of yours and just try that with me! I shall rip it apart!" Miroku cursed under his breath. 'Yeah that surely will happen again. Who knew these damn bugs actually had brains? Can't use the kazaana.' He sighed aloud and walked slowly up to the threateningly big bug holding a talisman. 'Might as well try it.' "Seibai!" He leaped into the air and threw the talisman onto the beast's forehead. It reached out its blade-like arm and sliced threw his robe on his side.
"Argghh!" He screamed in agony as he hit the ground with a thud.
"Miroku!" The taijya's voice echoed throughout the clearing. "Hiraikotsu!" She lunged forward and hurtled the boomerang at the demon. It gracefully slid through, halving it in one swing. She caught it as it rounded its way back to her. "Ewww.now I gotta shine it again." It was dripping with purple ooze. "Lovely." She ran towards the fallen monk; his wound wasn't too serious and could be easily treated. Sango grabbed his arm gently and slid his body onto Kirara. He groaned uneasily as he was jostled about. "Gomen, we'll be back at Lady Kaede's in a second." She comforted.
"Arigato, Sango." He winced.
"Shhh.just rest." They arrived at the village and Kirara laid on the ground to make it easier.
"Oh, my! What happened to ye?"
"Oh the baka insect sliced his side."
"Come inside. Let me make some ointment to treat the wound. Lay him down there." She said as she pointed to a futon made of straw. "Now undress him."
"Nani?!" Sango said as she blushed like mad.
"How else am I supposed to get to his wound? While I treat him would thee be so kind to sew his robe?"
"Of course. Arigato." She gradually undid his robe, watching the pale beige of his skin shine in the firelight. As she undid it further the beige turned to crimson. "It's not as bad as I thought it would be. Thank Kami-sama it's not that deep." Sango reported. She took a cloth and blotted up the wound, cleaning it up. He flinched and gritted his teeth. Kaede took the ointment she had prepared and rubbed it onto a bandage and then motioned for Sango to place it on the wound tightly. He moaned as she did this, trying to suck it up like a grown man should, but a few tears spilled on his cheeks. "Gomen. You should be feeling better soon though, thanks to Kaede. Where is Kagome-chan when you need her, ne?" Sango blotted his sweaty brow with a cold compress and wiped away the escaped tears. "I wonder...where those two lovebirds went...it's been...nearly a week." He said slowly and drawn out and as he tried to snicker; he winced from the pain.
"Baka, you're hurt, just rest." She said as she washed the robe. "Do you want anything to eat?"
"No thank you."
"Okay. Now what made you think I'd let you just go out there alone today?"
"You're still ill."
"No I'm not! I'm feeling just fine."
"You were sleeping when they asked me to help get rid of it, plus it was after me."
"Huh? Why?"
"Remember the grasshopper youkai that was disguised as a woman and I sucked it into the kazaana. It tore it."
"Oh yeah."
"It was this one's brother. I thought youkai didn't care about family ties, especially insect youkai."
"Interesting. Now stop this chatter and go to sleep. The more you rest the sooner you'll get better." She stated as she smiled.
"You get some rest too." Sango sighed and crawled into her sleeping bag next to him, laying one half over him. Under the covers they clutched each other's hand, falling quickly to sleep.
