Chapter 1 Chocolate Poison
Disclaimer: I don't think I'd be writing fan fiction if Inuyasha were mine. Author's note: Here's the first official chapter to Book One of the Four Books of Ramen. Don't read too fast, now, because there's more where this came from!
"What is this, Kagome?" asked Inuyasha, carefully inspecting a bar of chocolate. Kagome laughed as the hanyou sniffed at it, puzzled by the new thing.
"It's candy, silly!" she replied, watching him stare at the candy, determined to find something wrong with it. "It's for eating. Try some, it's good."
"I don't know, Kagome," he said cautiously. "I don't think I should mess around with this stuff."
"Don't be stupid!" she said. "The chocolate isn't going to hurt you."
"Okay," said the hanyou warily. "I'll try it..." He unwrapped the chocolate carefully, and bit into it. He chewed it and swallowed it, then without warning, fell to his knees. "Kagome," he said weakly.
"Inuyasha!" cried Kagome, as she ran over to him. She helped him lie down and rest his head in her lap, then rummaged through her pack and found medicine. "Here," she said. "Take this."

"What the hell were you trying to do, kill me???" yelled Inuyasha as he recovered from the chocolate.
"Baka!" screamed Kagome. "I only wanted to bring you back something from my time, and since you like food so much, I figured chocolate was a good idea. I'd never try to kill you!"
"Yeah?" countered the half demon. "Well, you figured wrong!" Kagome's face fell at these words, and she bit her lower lip in an attempt to keep herself from crying. Inuyasha smelled the salty tears in her eyes and looked at her. "Hey," he said. "I'm sorry. I know you wouldn't try to kill me. Don't cry." Kagome looked up.
"No, Inuyasha, I'm sorry. I should have listened to you when you said you didn't want to try it." She averted her eyes. Inuyasha lifted her chin and gazed deeply into her eyes.
"Don't worry about me, I'm fine." His face got closer and closer to hers, and just as their lips were about to meet, the sound of someone clearing their throat caused the hanyou and the girl to blush furiously and move away from eachother.
"Am I interrupting something?" asked Miroku.

"Houshi-sama," said Sango at the campfire. "You should leave Inuyasha and Kagome alone when their together."
"What's that supposed to mean?" demanded the irritated half demon. He'd been poisoned, fed disgusting little white pills that he wasn't allowed to chew, and had a moment with Kagome ruined by the aforementioned monk.
Wait, thought Inuyasha. I almost kissed Kagome. What's going on? Am I falling in love with her?
"Inuyasha, are you okay?" asked Sango. "You're blushing uncontrollably." The hanyou felt his cheeks. They were hot.
"I am not!" countered a now agitated Inuyasha. "It's just really hot in here! I'm goin' outside." He got up and left.
"Miroku-sama, look what you've done." said Sango. "He left."
"Me?!" said the monk. "If I recall correctly, it was you who did all the talking. I didn't do anything." He looked over at Kagome, who had been eating silently the whole time. "Is there something wrong, Kagome?" She looked up from her bowl of soup.
"No, I'm fine," she replied. After a while, she put her bowl down. "I'm going for a walk," she said. She and everyone else knew that she was going to meet up with Inuyasha. She picked up her backpack and left Kaede's hut.
"Kagome, will you come and play with me and Kirara?" Shippo asked. His eyes pleaded with hers. She rumpled his hair.
"Maybe later, okay?" She walked on, into the forest, toward the goshinboku, where she knew she'd find Inuyasha.
