Suddenly the wind picked up. Then out of the bushes came a small twister revealing koga as it stopped by the well.

"Grr, not him again!" Inuyasha barked, cracking his fingers into a fist.

"Oh no," Kagome started stepping between them. "lets not start another fight already."

"Who's starting a fight here? Not me!" Inuyasha yelled angrily.

"I picked up on your scent kagome and came to see you." Koga said as he stepped in front of kagome so they were face to face.

"How nice." Kagome said gritting her teeth as he cupped her hands in his.

"Tell me again kagome, why are you still hanging around this pup when you could be clothed in special furs spending the day with me?" Koga asked giving her skirt a little tug.

Inuyasha was about to pounce on him when kagome spoke up.

"I for one koga, would rather not date a man such as yourself who wears skirts as short as me!" And with that she walked off with inuyasha dragging her bag behind her.

Koga was shocked. "Hey!" he yelled at them. "For your information you little prick, I'm not wearing a skirt! I'm wearing formal furs a strong and wise wolf leader like me SHOULD wear!"

"Whatever koga...it still looks like a skirt to me!" Kagome beamed back at him.

Koga sat dumb founded on the edge of the bone eater's well. "Damn that girl." He scowled.

Soon Inuyasha and kagome were at kaede's hut.

"Ah....here at last. Hope they haven't waited long."

Kagome hesitateda, sensing the feeling of tension from Inuyasha who was standing behind her.

She turned to him, raising her eyes to his as she moved closer to him.

"Inuyasha," She started as he cut her off, his tone soft and low.

"If you want," he started. Then raised his voice. "You can go running off to koga cuz I'm SURE he's out there waiting for you!"

"Inuyasha! How could you say that to me? I don't want to be with koga, I want to be with you! And besides, we haven't even kissed yet! Why would I,"

"Yeah....we haven't...." Inuyasha interrupted.

"Huh?"

Inuyasha moved in closer until he felt kagome's quick breathing against him.

"Are you sure you wa." Kagome started as she felt his lips brush against her's.

"Hey you guys!!" shippo exclaimed, jumping up on kagome's shoulder.

Before shippo knew it he was on the ground with a rather large bump on top his head.

"Thanks allot you annoying brat!" Inuyasha spat at him as he walked into the hut.

"What?" Shippo asked. "What did I do?"

Kagome shook her head with a sigh and replied,

"Maybe when you're a bit older you'll understand."

Shippo blinked a few times not getting quite what she said. He looked at her again noticing that familiar sad face.

Kagome got up and walked off a bit of ways through the village.

"Kagome! Where are you going?!" Shippo called to her. She didn't hear him though being too lost in thought.

"Maybe.....maybe inuyasha didn't really want to kiss me. He probably felt pressured to. I wonder if he was thinking of kikyo when he went to kiss me."

The thought of that brought tears to her eyes.

"Damn that kikyo! I'm not going to let her get in the way of things again!" kagome said aloud.

Suddenly a voice interrupted her clouded thoughts.

"Flower?" the sweet little voice asked her again.

Kagome kneeled down to face the little girl holding a basket of wild flowers as she reached up to kagome with two beautiful pink and yellow wild flowers.

"Oh. Thank you." Kagome answered taking the flowers to her nose breathing in the sweet smells of spring. "You're welcome." The little girl cooed as she skipped away.

As kagome gazed at the entwined flowers she suddenly felt a stinging sensation on her neck.

She slapped the spot on her neck where the stinging was.

"Such a sweet taste too." Was myoga's uttered response as his flat body floated to the ground.

"What do you want?" kagome said not wanting to hear what she already knew.

"You must know by now lady kagome, that it is not wise to stray far from the group with the shikon shards around your neck that you carry." He ventured as he hopped to her shoulder.

Kagome sighed and started to walk back to kaede's hut.

~Back at the hut.~

"WHAT?" Inuyasha screeched as he jerked shippo around by the collar. "You mean to say that idiot of a girl just walked off somewhere?"

Shippo nodded slowly, cringing as inuyasha threw him to the ground.

"Great....now I have to waste more time to go searching for kagome!"

"Have some respect Inuyasha!" Miroku called to him. "Shippo said that kagome seemed sad when she left."

"hm....so it's all my fault again eh kagome?" Inuyasha said aloud as he ran and jumped in the air to search out over the village for her.

"Kagome." He thought as a wave of peace laid over him automatically as he said her name. "Just hold on until I find you!."

Miroku's words rushed past in his head. "She seemed sad when she left." He had told him.

"I hate to see her cry. And I hate that I'm the one that makes her cry. She never smiles anymore. I miss that."

A smile spread on his lips as a picture of kagome smiling entered his mind.

"Don't you know you're all I ever think about?" "Maybe......I don't show it enough." He thought sadly.
