Chapter 9
The next day, Inuyasha was awakened with a few violent shakes from Kagome. "Come on, Inuyasha! We need to get you some new clothes today. We can't go anywhere if you won't get your butt up!" Kagome yelled in between shakes. She expected him to wake up being very crabby. She was always crabby if awakened this way, and Inuyasha is naturally much more crabby than Kagome. To her surprise, though, Inuyasha slowly opened his still- amber eyes (strangely, they hadn't changed when he became human) and gave her a small smile. Although he thought she could have awakened him a little nicer, Inuyasha realized that if he could be awakened by her every day for the rest of his life, nothing would make him happier. "Y..you're not mad?" Kagome asked, momentarily stunned. "No, I'm not mad. I am happy to see your face." Inuyasha replied, putting his hands up to her cheeks. Kagome blushed, but she didn't pull away. With that, Inuyasha kissed her. He loved how she tasted, sweet and fresh. Even though he could sense that she wanted to go further, Inuyasha pulled away and went to go get his robe.
As they walked around outside, Kagome realized how little Inuyasha truly knew about her world. He looked at all of the buildings, lights, and cars in utter amazement. "How do those lights work without fire? Also, how do those 'cars' move?" Inuyasha wondered to himself. He made a mental note to ask Kagome all about these things later. Right now, he wanted to concentrate on what they were buying and going home. Like the typical guy, Inuyasha quickly realized after a short time of 'shopping' that he hated it. "How could anyone like doing this, Kagome?" Inuyasha asked, obviously bored. "Are you that tired of trying on clothes ALREADY?" Kagome wondered. It had only been not even a half hour! "Oh, well," She thought. "We did manage to find him a few good shirts and pairs of pants." Now, Kagome had to take a good chunk of money out of her bank account to pay for those items. Although he didn't really understand what these 'bank accounts' or 'credit cards' were for, Inuyasha did understand that she was paying for his merchandise. "I have to find a way to pay her back." Inuyasha thought, feeling a little ashamed.
After returning home, Kagome forced Inuyasha to show her mother how the clothes looked on him. "You look great, Inuyasha." Mary gushed. After Inuyasha left the room to change back into his customary robe, Mary leaned over to Kagome and said, "Kagome, did you see him in those clothes? I haven't seen anyone fill out clothes like those so NICELY. You better hold on to him!" Kagome blushed furiously and looked at the floor. Just then, Inuyasha walked back into the room, fully-clad in his tattered robe. "Were you just talking about me?" Inuyasha asked upon seeing Kagome staring at the floor and her mother laughing her head off. "No, of course not." Mary lied with a giggle.
Kagome headed upstairs after dinner to watch a little TV. As she walked into her room, she heard a strange noise coming from outside. Kagome nervously walked to her window, and she couldn't believe what she saw. "I..I..it's a demon." She managed to sputter. But how? Demons didn't live in this time period! "Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed. Almost the second his name left Kagome's lips, Inuyasha was right in front of her. "There's a demon out there, Inuyasha!" Kagome said, obviously panicked. "How?" Inuyasha asked, puzzled. "I don't know! Just go kill it!" Kagome screamed. Inuyasha nodded, and he quickly jumped out her window. The demon was surprised, and Inuyasha killed it easily with one swipe of the tetsuiga. "Whew. Glad that's over." Kagome sighed. "Not quite." A familiar voice buzzed. "Myouga? What are you doing here?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha heard Myouga's name mentioned, and he jumped back up through the window. "Uh, well, Lord Inuyasha tied me to his robe and forced me to come with him when he left." Myouga answered. "I had to, in case I ever needed to ask you any more questions! If I didn't, you surely would have run away." Inuyasha said angrily to the flea as he cut the string loose that the bug was attached to. "Anyways, my lord, I think I know why that demon was here." Myouga buzzed.
