Chapter?: Something important left forgotten





******************************************************************



Kagome's eyes slowly drifted open. She was at first worried to find the growingly familiar prescence of Inuyasha beside her was missing. Remembering just what she was now, she sniffed the air to find him. 'Thats odd, its like hes right beside me.'








Her confusion was soon nonexistent as she felt someone touch her ear.








Inuyasha had woken up before Kagome, instead of waking her, he had contented himself in only getting up and setting beside her head. Watching her sleep, he had found himself almost unable to resist touching her new dog ears. 'So this is why she always wants to touch them..'. At his tentative touch, her black tipped ear twitched slightly. He grinned somewhat evily.







"Your hanyou again.", he informed when he felt her stir. He began to drag his fingers along her ear in a petting motion. He was very amused to find her making a soft, purring noise.








'Hey..that feels good...I wander if this is how dogs feel when you pet their ears...hey..whats that noise...am I..PURRING?'. She immediatly sat up, causing Shippo to move slightly. She looked at Inuyasha accussingly, he was grinning evily.











"HEY! you..made me..purr?", Her accusation was more of a question, just to make sure she hadn't been hearing things.











"Is there anything wrong with that?", he continued to gin evily, "Your hanyou, half DOG demon, your gonna purr."










"I..Purr now?...but you never purr..", After saying that, she knew that reasoning was ridiculous, Inuyasha never ran around hugging people and telling them they were their best friend either, but that didn't mean he didn't have the ability to.








"Feh, of course I don't! But that doesn't mean I can't!", he crossed his arms acrossed his chest defiantly.









Kagome got a sly grin on her face. She had never heard HIM purr..and she definately wanted to..Of course, she knew there was no way Inuyasha was going to let her touch his ears willingly, even if she WAS his mate.








"Inuyasha?", her voice was sickeningly sweet and innocent, TOO innocent.









"What?", he demanded, he didn't much like that look she was giving him.










"Sit.", It was said so calmly and innocently you would have thought she had been telling him the news.








"Oi, Whench! Why the HELL did you do that for!", he was angry, obviously non to happy to be practicaly glued to the floor as he was.









Kagome smiled at him, grinning much like Inuyasha had been doing earlier. Without warning, she pounced on him, knees digging into his back as she reached for his ears. "So I could do this...", she explained, as she began to pet his ears. The twitched under her hand, just as hers had earlier.









"WENCH! I'm gonna get you for this! You could of just asked! Being Sat doesn't exactly do wanders for my back ya know!"









"Like you would have let me...", she mumbled between giggles as she continued to pet his ears, to her great delight, instead of condemning her soul, or yelling profanities at her, he was purring. Kagome giggled again, but stopped immediatly as she heard the slight creak of a door being swung open behind her. 'Oh Kami-Sama, let that be Sango..."







"Wow, Kagome I didn't know you were so DOMINATING, I guess I should come back later..but, Kagome, I am ashamed of you, doing such things in front of someone so young as Shippo...". A 'tsk tsk tsk' noise was hear, followed by laughter so silent it took Kagome's hanyou ears to hear it.









Instead of screaming Hentia, and slapping the perverted Monk, Kagome merely turned her head to stare at Miroku, and, in a sly, flat, dry voice, she posed a seemingly innocent question.









"So, did you find Sango's Kimono...YET?"











She was at first surprised to see the monk blush, before a idiotic grin replaced it.










"No, I had better go look for it AGAIN..", he informed, implying much more.., before leaving the room, he turned and grinned at her again.."have fun with Inuyasha.."








"HENTAI!", Kagome yelled at the closed door. She felt something shaking under her, and was reminded of just what she was sitting on. 'Why is he shaking..is he..laughing?"








"Hentai!", She yanked on one of his ears before leaping off him.









"Ow!", he sat up and grabbed one of her ears.










"OW!! THAT REALY REALY HURTS!"






"YA THINK?! Now you know how I feel!"










"sorry..", she grumbled. That realy had hurt, she had no idea doggy ears would be so..sensitive.











"Shut up you bakkas! Some of us are TRYING to sleep!", The little Kitzune growled slightly as he closed his eyes again.









Inuyasha looked at Kagome, pleadingly. To his great surprise, not to mention delight, she nodded her head in permission.








Without giving her time to change her mind, Inuyasha pounced on the Shippo. Grabbing him up by his tail and flinging him, not TOO roughly, against the wall.








"OWW..Ka-Go-ME!", whined the little pup.









Kagome didn't like to see Shippo in pain, but, Inuyasha had been very good lately, and she HAD sat him, she needed to make it up to him, and besides, now being half youkai herself, she knew that being flung into a wall, even by Inuyasha, couldn't hurt TOO bad, especialy for a full youkai like Shippo.








Before she could give her apologies to Shippo, or tell Inuyasha to stop looking so full of himself, a loud crashing noise was heard in the other room, one that sounded a lot like a boomerang hitting a pervert.









"HENTAI!"








"But Sango, I thought you liked that about me!"









"HENTAI! *Bonk* HENTAI *Bonk* HENTAI!!!!!"









And then, monkless, Sango walked calmly into the room.










"Kagome?, you may need to go get Kaede, I probably shouldn't have given him that last hit.."









**************************************************************








After finaly rousing the unconcious Miroku and eating breakfast, the group sat around in the small hut, Kagome still wearing her pink Kimono, and Sango finaly back into her beloved NORMAL clothes.










"So, Kagome, when do you plan to return to your original time? Your mother does not know of your change? Does she?", questioned the wise old women, better known as Kaede.








"My Mother?", Kagome gulped audibly..'Oh..my mother..hey mom, guess what! I'm a hanyou, and Inuyasha's mate for life....then again...she isn't exactly the most...normal..mother in the world..maybe I COULD just tell her that..'










"Um..Kagome..you don't think your mom is going to hate me, do you?", Inuyasha sounded almost afraid as he glanced at his mate wearily.










"If SESHOUMARU can accept it, surely Kagome's mom can.", Reasured Sango, as she thought back to her
very vivid, if not traumatic memories of Mrs.Higurashi, unknowingly, she shuddered.












"Yes Kagome, I am sure Mrs. Higurashi will be fine with your change, do not worry.", Miroku put his arm around Sango's shoulders, as he noticed she was shuddering..'Poor Sango, she is probably just remembering that..demon car..'









"I guess we should go and tell her, Inuyasha, do you mind if we leave right now?"










"I don't mind, if you want to go, lets go.", Inuyasha stood and waited on Kagome to follow suit.













'What? No 'sit'? Were just gonna go? Just like that?, I guess being mates realy DOES change things..' Somewhat shocked, Kagome rose from the floor and stood beside Inuyasha. She looked to her other two friends and Shippo.








"Are you guys coming or not?", she asked somewhat impatiently.










Sango and Miroku's faces were those of pure horror. They both scooted back a few spaces, Miroku even pulled Sango closer protectively, Sango burried her face in Miroku's shoulder. Kirara hissed.










"N-N-NO! No..we can't go..um..the forest fires! We have to make sure there aren't any forest fires!", Miroku knew well and good that that excuse was getting old, and wasn't even believable in the first place...well..It DID work on people like Mrs.Higurashi..but..he knew Kagome and Inuyasha weren't that dense, still, it was the best he could come up with.










Inuyasha and Kagome gave him a look that seemed to say..'Riiiiiiigggggggght', and then turned to Shippo, after getting the rather obvious hint that Sango and Miroku were NOT going.










"So, Shippo, do you have any forest fires to look after, or do you wanna come with us?", Kagome smiled sweetly at Shippo, but shot Sango and Miroku an accusing glare, of course, Sango couldn't see it, as she was still clinging to Miroku in fear.










"I CAN GO? YAY! I NEVER GET TO GO! Of course I want to go Kagome!", Shippo jumped onto Kagome's shoulder with great enthusiasm, Inuyasha grabbed Kagome's backpack and slung it over his shoulder.











"Goodbye Kaede-sama."










"Goodbye child."










"Baba."








"Inuyasha."








And, hand in hand, Inuyasha and Kagome, with Shippo on her shoulder, left the hut, on their way to the future.











****************************************************************************************












With the three gone, Sango finaly loosened her hold on Miroku.











"A-A-Are they g-g-gone yet...I don't want to get in another car demon.."










Miroku rubbed Sango's back soothingly, making sure not to let his hand travel too low.











"They're gone now...How do you think Kagome stands being in those car demon's..?"









"I don't know Miroku...I just don't know.."









Kaede looked at the two, not understanding what they were talking about,and not realy caring. After a while, she decided that the two were beginning to look as if they both wanted to 'find Sango's Kimono' again. 'And I have always thought that Miroku was the hentai..' With distaste for the both of them, she queitly left the room, taking Kirara with her.
