Ghost

Chapter 7: What a weird night...

When Kagome got out of the bathroom (fully clothed) Inuyasha was face down- on her bed-snoring-asleep-drooling-on her pillow. That just wouldn't do.

Kagome floated over to Inuyasha and put her hands under his sides and pushed. "Damn, you're heavy!" Kagome sat down next to him and put her feet against the wall, then pushed him with her back. She pushed for about ten minutes before he was on the edge of the bed.

Inuyasha chose that time to roll over. . . "Kyaaa!" His head hit the stool thingy that she keeps her lamp on. "Ow!" He tried to move but discovered that when he did that it made his arm bend behind his head. (he was tied up in the bed sheets.)

"What the fu. . .Kagome!" She didn't have to see his face to know that he was glaring at her.

"Hey! Don't blame me! You rolled over on your own! Besides, who told you that you could sleep on my bed?"

Inuyasha had untangled himself from the sheets and got back on the bed. "Well, what did you expect? For me to sleep on the floor? Besides, how was I supposed to know that I couldn't sleep on your bed, not that I care. I mean gee, you took like a two hour shower. I got bored so I feel asleep! Besides, you're dead! You don't need sleep!"

"What does that have to do with anything? Have you ever thought that maybe I like to dream? Or that I like the feeling right after I wake up? (you know, that sleepy feeling that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy.) Huh? Well, did you?"

"Well, no."

"Hmph! I'm going to sleep. . . in MY bed."

"And just where the hell am I supposed to sleep?"

Kagome was fluffing her pillow. "I don't know. Go sleep on that tree outside my room for all I care. . . as long as you're not in my bed."

"Fine." With that Inuyasha jumped out onto the tree limb and laid out on it.

Kagome walked over to the open window. "I wasn't expecting you to actually sleep on the branch."

"I prefer trees over beds any day. It's in my blood, I guess."

"Then why were you on my bed instead of on the branch?"

"I dunno, habit I guess."

"You say 'I guess' too much."

"Oh well, time for bed."

"Kay, 'night."

"G'night."

Kagome closed the window and walked over to her bed, got under her bed sheets (Inuyasha had picked them up and put them back on the bed during their conversation. I thought you would have guessed that already, but you might not have.. So there you are.), and rested her head on her pillow. She grimaced when she realized that this was the side of the pillow with Inuyasha's spit on it. 'Ewwwww!' Kagome flipped the pillow over and laid her head back down. 'Sleep..'

^0^ -_-0

'Nice to see you again Kagome.' Kagome looked up. That voice. Not again.

'Well, do you think I really wanna be here?! No! we call you back to this heavenly place to help you from the goodness of our hearts and this is how you treat us?!'

"Uh.." This place didn't really look heavenly. Unlike the other place, this place had piles of paper everywhere and doors and people with halos working at desks. There were even people running around, with important documents, from door to door.

'Hmph! Just like a human to criticize heaven's entrance office!' His voice changed back to normal. 'Anyway, we called you here to tell you that if you need any help or advice you can go to Kouga.'

"Kouga?"

'Yes. He haunts the little corner store about a block away from the Inu mansion.'

"Why is he a ghost? Did he kill himself too?"

'No. I don't think you will want to hear why he was condemned to being a ghost.'

"Yes, I do."

'Ok. He practiced a bit of..Uh..' he lowered his voice to a whisper.

"What? I didn't hear you!"

The big voice whispered something again.

"Wh-What?!"

'You heard me.

"Oh. Hee hee."

'I know it's very disturbing, isn't it?'

There was a knock at one of the doors on the wall. 'Ah, here he is now. Come in!'

"Yo. How you been doin' Big Disembodied Voice Man?" In walked a rather hansom man about her age. He had long, black hair tied up in a high pony- tail. His teeth were pointed into fangs, and his eyes were blue..kinda like Kagome's but not really..If that made any sense. "Why'd ya call me here?"

'Oh, yes, back to that. Kouga, meet Kagome. Kagome, meet Kouga. Kouga, if Kagome ever needs any help or anything she can come to you can't she?'

Kouga turned to Kagome and acknowledged her for the first time. A smile spread its way across his face and there was a creepy gleam in his eyes when he saw her. "Of course." He walked over to Kagome and grabbed her hands. "I'm always at the corner store, if you need me for..anything."

For a moment there Kagome thought, 'Is he gonna eat me?'

Was it just Kagome's imagination or was Kouga's face getting closer to hers? And closer, and closer. They were an inch apart now. "Anything at all." Kagome gulped. His face just kept getting closer.

Suddenly she was woken up by thunder. Kagome 'oof'ed' as she hit her bed. (you know when you wake up in the middle of the night and all of a sudden you hit the bed.)

'Thunder?' Was there a storm going on outside? Then a knocking at the window got her attention. On the tree branch right outside her window was a very wet, very angry looking Inuyasha. 'Oh my gods! I locked the window! Kagome ran over to the window and unlocked it. "I'm soooooo sorry! I didn't know that it was going to rain tonight! I swear!"

Inuyasha silently jumped through the window. Kagome closed the window again and ran into her bathroom to get a towel for him. When she offered it to him he snatched it up while muttering to her. "I knock on the fuckin' window for an hour..and thunder wakes you up?!"

"Well, it's not my fault! That big voice guy called..me." Kagome blushed when she noticed that the pajamas Inuyasha was wearing were ordinary white pajama pants and a form fitting (she didn't know if it was from the rain or not.) white shirt. For some reason she couldn't move her eyes.

"What the hell are you staring at?! Inuyasha growled while taking the towel off his head. "And you're turning all red'n stuff."

Well that woke Kagome from her trance. She quickly put her hands over her eyes and turned around. "Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry!"

"Wha...What are you..." Inuyasha looked down at what he was wearing and a smirk appeared on his face. "Like what you saw?"

"Hmph! No, of course not!"

"Then why did you take so long to look away from my" This is the point where he started flexing. "muscular, hansom body?"

"Your ego is too big for your own good."

"Stop trying to change the subject."

"I'm not. I was only stating a fact."

"Well, I'm stating the fact that you LOVE my body. Just admit it."

"No."

"Come on, you know it's true."

"In your dreams maybe."

"You mean in YOUR dreams."

"Psh..right." Kagome countered sarcastically.

"I know I am." Inuyasha wrapped an arm around Kagome's shoulders, he chuckled when she turned red.

"S-Stop it!" Kagome just about yelled and pushed him away. "Stay away from me! And leave me alone!"

"Huh?" Inuyasha was confused. He was only joking... "Maybe I should just change and go to Kikyou's room."

"Yes, go." Kagome pointed to the bathroom. "Change in there then go to Kikyou's room. Mama wakes everyone up at nine so you might want to come back in here. Wake me up first. Now go."

Inuyasha went into the bathroom muttering about "what crawled up her ass and died." When he came out all he was wearing was a pair of red boxers.

"Bye." Inuyasha said angrily. He still couldn't understand why Kagome was angry with him.

"Buh-bye!" Kagome replied back, mimicking the way Kikyou had said it perfectly, except the way she said it had mockery dripping from her voice.

Inuyasha left Kagome alone after that.

"It's not fair.." Kagome mumbled. She didn't really know what was unfair or why she was so mad at him. She just was.

Kagome walked over to her bathroom, opened the door, walked over to one of the walls, and stuck her head through it.

She saw Inuyasha getting into Kikyou's bed, and Kikyou wrap her arms around him then lay her head on his chest. Inuyasha didn't seem to mind. Of coarse why should he? They were going out. And Kikyou was always the smarter of the two. And she was prettier, and more mature-Wait! NO! she was NOT jealous of Kikyou! NOT. NOT. NOT. NOT. NOT. NOT. With that she went back to her bed and laid down under the sheets.

She snorted to herself in amusement. Kagome shook her head and fell asleep.

* Kagome's dream *

Kagome and Inuyasha were in the same bed..they weren't wearing anything. (Don't get the wrong idea here.)

Inuyasha was hugging Inuyasha to his chest while he slept. Kagome was awake, looking at his ears. Slowly, one of her hands started moving up to his ears, then her fingers stared to scratch behind his ears.

A slow rumbling from his chest began. Kagome giggled as his eyes lazily began to open. "I didn't know dogs could purr." Kagome giggled.

"Dogs can do ANYTHING cats can do! We just don't want to." Inuyasha replied, pushing his head against her hand.

"Why can't you look like this all the time?"

Inuyasha looked up at her. "What, naked?"

"No, adorable."

"So you're saying that I'm only adorable when I'm naked, in the same bed as you, and purring."

"You know that's not it either. Although...It would be nice."

"Huh? What would?"

"Never mind."

"Ok, I'm good at that....Now, to what I was about to do before you got me off track."

"And what is that?"

"This." Inuyasha crawled on top of Kagome.

"What are you doing?"

"What's it look like I'm doing?" It was more of a statement than a question. Inuyasha started kissing her neck, jaw, face...well, until Kagome stopped him.

"No." Kagome said firmly. She wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him down until their faces were an inch apart. "Now, what did I tell you last night? No more, until you propose to me."

"But Kagome!" Inuyasha whined. "I don't want to. The rings always cost too much. Besides, in youkai, we got married last night." That last comment made Kagome blush a little.

"Cry baby. You live in this huge mansion, are rich, have just about everything, and a wedding ring costs too much money?!"

"Yes."

Kagome gave out a frustrated/angry growl and pushed Inuyasha off the bed. She gave a satisfied "Hmph!" and rolled over when she heard Inuyasha hit the ground.

*On the floor *

Inuyasha smiled when he heard her roll over. He stuck his hand under the bed.

*On the bed *

Kagome heard Inuyasha get back in the bed, so she moved further away.

"Oh, come on, don't be mad at me." Inuyasha pleaded.

"Well, I am."

Inuyasha sighed. "Well then, I guess that this is the only thing that could make you happy again." A ring dropped down about an inch way from Kagome's head.

"A-A ring!" Kagome cried happily, picking it up and looking at Inuyasha.

"Yeah...Yeah...Yeah...Don't get too excited, it's just a ring."

Kagome looked at Inuyasha again and smiled brightly. "I love you soooooooo much!" She yelled as she jumped on him.

Inuyasha was a little surprised at first...but that was Kagome. "I love you, too." He wrapped his arms around her and started lowering her to the bed.

"My god! You've got a one-track mind don't you?!"

"I can't help it. We're just mated, and I can't get enough of you." Inuyasha leaned down and started kissing Kagome again.

"Give me a rest. I'm still sore from last night."

"If you didn't want to do anything..." Inuyasha smiled down at her and whispered in her ear. "You never should have scratched me behind my ears." Inuyasha began kissing and nuzzling her neck and shoulder, working his way down to-

"Kagome! Kagome! Damn, wake up!"

*End Dream *

Kagome's eyes slowly opened. "What do you want? It's" Kagome looked at her clock. "six-thirty in the morning."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "I know. You told me to come back here before nine. Now, move, 'cause I gotta get in bed before your mother comes. It would be kind of weird if your mother came in here and there was a big FAT lump under the covers, but no Inuyasha."

Kagome mumbled something incoherent. "Fine, get in." Grumbling Kagome moved over against the wall.

"It seems like you're in a better mood this morning than last night."

Kagome smiled. "I had the best dream of my life."

Inuyasha pulled up the sheets and got in Kagome's bed. "What was it about?"

"Can't tell you."

"Awww...Why not?"

"Personal."

"Kay." Behind her back, Inuyasha stuck his tongue out at her.

Then Kagome had just actually realized what she had said and what she had dreamed...Kagome looked back. No...She did NOT have a crush on Inuyasha!....Damn, she had it bad.

(A/N: OK so how was it. People kinda wanted more I/K stuff so there. That's the best you'll get....for now. You know. All the reviews I have, its not much but I love them all! Thanks to everyone that reviewed!!!!!!! I wasn't even expecting to get as many reviews as I got for the whole story! This is my first fic after all and I was kinda..you know. Oh and I was wondering: DO YOU PEOPLE WANT THE ENDING TO BE SAD OR HAPPY? Review me the answers. 'Cause I got a good sad ending in mind that, in my opinion is sad, and I have a good happy ending. -Not as good as the sad one though.-
