**************************
"If that's the way they wanna act then FINE with ME!!!" Inuyasha yelled angrily. "I've been such a fool!!!"
'I smell Kagome's scent, she's nearby.' He thought, walking deeper and deeper into the murky forest.
"Inuyasha? Where are you? Inuyasha?? Inuyasha??" Kagome yelled at the top of her lungs.
'Where is he?' She thought frantically. She flashed down the forest and searched for him. Finally after a long and desperate run, she found him.
"Inuyasha," She said breathing heavily, "Don't believe what Kouga said.....It wasn't true, it......."
"It was true wasn't it? I am just a half-breed." Inuyasha replied, cutting her off before she could finish her sentence.
"Inuyasha, your more than that."
He scoffed at her response and proceeded in walking away from her.
"Oh really? If I am more than that, why are you so quick to agree that you belong to Kouga?"
"Wha......What do you mean??"
"Why is it that you're always so nice to him and never to me?"
"What? I haven't done anything to you."
"That's what I mean!! You never do anything to show that you aren't his woman!! You stand there and blush and sometimes agree even and you NEVER do anything.AT ALL!!! Not even when I try to help!!! YOU STAND THERE!"
'Why is he getting so tense about me being Kouga's woman?' Kagome thought.
"Inuyasha....I....you know I'm not his woman.....I.....what does it matter to you anyway? You've got Kikyo." She said with an extreme sense of helplessness in her voice.
"KIKYO, KIKYO EVERYTHING'S ABOUT KIKYO. What does KIKYO have to do with this? This is about YOU not doing anything about-"
This was just about all Kagome could stand.
"And what if I do just stand there?! What DO YOU CARE who's woman I am?! You're so occupied with the jewel and KIKYO that you don't even have time to notice that I sacrifice everything to BE HERE!!"
Inuyasha took a step back, somewhat surprised of Kagome's outburst. He was about to yell something out when he saw a tear trickle down her face.
'She's crying?! What did I do now?! I'm so sorry Kagome!!' He thought hastily.
"Wait.don't cry."
"The only reason you keep me around is because of the sacred jewel shards.....isn't it?"
"I......."
'That's not true!! I keep you around because I CARE for you!' He thought.
"You mean a lot to me, Miroku, Sango and Shippo. We don't care whether you're demon or human or half. It doesn't matter to us. Go and see them they're really worried about you."
"Kagome I....."
"I'm going back to the camp. I hope to see you there." She said leaving Inuyasha in the forest alone.
****************
"How'd things go Kagome?" Sango asked, as Miroku fed the fire.
"Um. I.Okay.I guess."
'I am such a bad lier.' Kagome thought.
"Oh? Why isn't he back? You know.I can tell you're lying." Sango replied, raising a brow to look at Kagome who now had her back turned on her friends to set up her sleeping bag.
'Busted.' Kagome thought grimly.
"Okay.So maybe things didn't go so well. But it wasn't about you guys.It was about me.So, you have nothing to worry about."
"What'd he do?" Sango asked curiously, wondering why her friend had such a cheerless face on.
"Nothing......"
For a minute, Sango just eyed Kagome, then sighed and commenced to stare intently on the fire. She understood that Kagome didn't desire to converse about it right now, and she decided to respect her decision.
"Sango, I'm going to go for a dip in the hot spring."
"Alright." Sango agreed knocking Miroku down.
"What?" He asked with mock innocence.
"Don't even think about it."
"I merely wanted to accompany Kagome and check whether she was okay. My intentions were indeed, honorable. Right Kagome?," looking up, he noticed she wasn't there, "Uh.....heheh.....I knew that.....I was just....er.....reflexes."
"Sure."
Minutes later, Inuyasha appeared on the scene. All eyes reverted on him and he looked at them as if they were crazy.
"What." He demanded in a rather miffed tone.
"What did you do to Kagome now?" Sango asked just as annoyed.
"What do you mean?"
"She came back rather depressed, I'd like to know what is it you did to her."
"I.....haven't done anything! I was just telling her that she should stand up for herself when she saw Kouga!"
'Oh.and I also told her that Kikyo had nothing to do with this....But.....I don't think it's safe to tell Sango that right now.' He notioned.
"You let your jealousy hurt her again, didn't you?"
"NO! I'M NOT* JEALOUS!"
'Yes you are.' His conscious nagged him. 'You know it.'
"And you probably had an outburst about how she didn't say anything when Kouga showed up and I'm guessing you had a couple words about Kikyo?" Sango said with a great deal of warning in her voice.
She looked up, noticing that Inuyasha wasn't answering.
"Well? YOU DID. DIDN'T YOU?"
'Come on. Fess up. Be a man! You know you like her!! What are you afraid of a girl?' said a voice in his mind. 'HECK NO!! WHY WOULD I* BE AFRAID OF HER?!' yelled another.
"Darn voices in my head." Inuyasha mumbled.
"What was that?"
"I did!! Okay!! I got mad about Kouga, I said some things about Kikyo and I am the reason Kagome is like that!! Happy?! There!!!! Satisfied?!!! I didn't mean it though!! I hate it when she cries!! I hate it when........"
"She was crying?" Miroku asked surprised that Inuyasha had gone that far.
"I DIDN'T MEAN IT!! I WOULD NEVER MAKE KAGOME CRY!!! SHE.....SHE MEANS A LOT TO ME!!"
"A lot of jewel shards that is......" Shippo muttered.
"WHAT WAS THAT YOU BRAT?"
"Sometimes.I wonder why Kagome puts up with everything you put her through and doesn't sit you a couple times to get something into your head."
"WHAT DO YOU KNOW LITTLE FOX!"
"Hmmm..it's so obvious you like her. Why not do something nice for a change?" He suggested.
"Nice.?"
'Hmm..I hate to admit it. But that brat does have a good point.' He thought.
"Yea!! Do that!!" Sango said jumping up with excitement. Inuyasha blushed.
"I.I never said I liked her!!"
"Inuyasha, even a little kid like me can see that simply." Shippo said.
"But........"
"All of us know." Miroku replied,
"The problem is..what about Kikyo?"
"I'll deal with that myself." Inuyasha said a matter of factly.
'I..loved Kikyo once.but.' Inuyasha popped out of his state of thinking when he noticed one person was missing.
"Where's Kagome?!" He asked jumping up, thinking she was in danger. "Calm down, lover boy, she went off to the hotspring." Miroku said dreamily.
"Miroku...." Inuyasha warned closing his hand into a fist.
*gulp*
"I was only thinking about how nice that hotspring must be about now!! Hehehe!!"
********
Kagome was done with her bath and went out and put on her clothes. "Why does he always act like that?" Kagome whispered. Suddenly, she heard a rustling in the bushes.
'SOMEONE'S HERE!' She thought frantically, grabbing her arrows, aiming at the bush.
'Ready.Aim..'
Just then, dog ears popped out of the leaves, and out came Inuyasha.
"Uh.Hi?"
