AN: Ahhh, I'm very happy with all the reviews I received ^-^. I am going to save strip poker till last, and It will end very citrusy. It will be a lime at the least, cause I don't know if I can write a good lemon ^-^;; Don't get me wrong, I have nothing wrong with lemons, but I'm not sure exactly how well I can write one myself XP
Anyway, I have a while to figure that out ^-^ So here's the next chapter. And as requested, I will throw in some Kagome/Inu fluff. ^-^
~*^-^*~
"Ne, Kagome. Did you bring back ramen?" Inuyasha asked as he watched Kagome struggle over the side of the well. She had left again for a week to study for exams, and had promised Inuyasha ramen.
Now, when Inuyasha wants his ramen. He wants it right away. Instant gratification. Not caring that his 'tama-detector' was currently struggling with a large yellow backpack, he walked over to her.
"Inuyasha, a little help!" Kagome growled, glaring angrily at him. He shrugged and lifted the backpack from her arms with one tug. She watched, amazed, as he sat down on the grass and proceeded to pick through her bag.
"INUYASHA! OSUWARI!"
Thud
It's a very bad sign when Kagome uses that word within the first page of any story. Ah yes, it was obvious Inu-chan was going to have some problems.
"What'd ya do that for, wench!?" He snarled from his position on the ground. Kagome huffed and angrily grabbed her pack away from him.
"I'm going to the village to meet Sango-chan and Miroku-sama. When you decide to behave, you can have some ramen." She stuck out her tongue and walked away, head held high.
"Honestly, sometimes I swear even Kouga-kun has better manners."
"I HEARD THAT!"
"GOOD! OSUWARI!"
It was going to be a very bad day for Inuyasha indeed. Being compared to Kouga and being 'sat' twice? Not good at all.
~*^-^*~
"Kagome-chan?"
Sango looked surprised when Kagome stormed into the hut she and Miroku were residing in. The girl said nothing as she tossed her back to the side and slumped down next to Sango.
"I can't stand him sometimes."
"Inuyasha?"
"Who else?" Kagome folded her arms across her chest and pouted. Sango smiled sympathetically and looked at Miroku, who just shrugged. Inuyasha would be Inuyasha.
"Oi, wench! Where's my ramen?"
Inuyasha appeared in the room in much the same manner as Kagome: Loud and pissed. Kagome chose to ignore him and turned to Sango.
"Ne, Sango-chan. I was back at home and saw this really great movie that you'd have liked."
"Movie?" Sango blinked, confused. Kagome glared and nudged her in the ribs. Sango started.
"Oooh, that movie! Yea, I want to see that!"
"What the hell is a movie?" Inuyasha growled. Sango wanted to ask that herself, but refrained from ruining whatever Kagome was planning.
"Here's your stupid ramen. Make it yourself." Kagome quickly pulled a container out of her bag and chucked it at his head. He caught it just in time and growled before setting himself for doing the task.
"Kagome-sama, you seem more upset than usual." Miroku pointed out the obvious. Sango rolled her eyes but said nothing.
"Some people just don't have manners."
"What was that?" Inuyasha looked up from heating his food. Kagome smiled sweetly and said nothing. There was only one thing to do when in a situation like this.
"Okay, minna! We're going to play a game!"
Everyone blanched. Inuyasha didn't seem to notice as he stirred his ramen. Kagome rolled her eyes and turned to Miroku and Sango.
"Games always help get my mind off of things. Say, where's Shippou?" She asked, finally noticing the missing kitsune.
"Kaede-sama took him out to help gather herbs." Sango explained. Kagome nodded. Glancing over at Inuyasha, she blushed. Now, without Shippou around, maybe it was a good time to play a little match-maker. Not only for Sango, but for herself. Clearing her throat, all earlier anger gone, she picked a game.
"Okay, we're going to play…Spin the bottle."
"Spin the bottle?"
Kagome nodded and pulled out the closest thing she had to a bottle: A brush. Motioning for everyone to gather around in a circle, she place the brush at the center.
"That's not a bottle." Sango bluntly pointed out. Kagome sighed and nodded, waving it off.
"I know, I know. But it's all I have. Anyway, what you do is spin the bottle and-"
"Is that all it does? Spin?" Inuyasha came up to the circle (well, a triangle at the time) with his ramen in hand, looking slightly interested in whatever game was about to be played.
Kagome smiled shyly and blushed, averting her eyes. That's when everyone suddenly got suspicious.
"Kagome…?"
"Well, we take turns spinning the bottle and-"
"It's not a bottle."
"Fine! We take turns spinning the BRUSH." She looked around to make sure there weren't anymore complaints before continuing.
"And you have to…Kiss whoever it points to."
"Wait, we have to kiss whoever that points to?" Sango looked almost fearfully down at the brush in the center. Kagome nodded, feeling her cheeks heat up even more. Inuyasha nearly choked on his ramen while Miroku remained scarily silent.
"Oh c'mon, it's fun."
"Fun?" Sango asked incredulously. Sure, she had always wondered what Houshi-sama tasted like, but…Wait. Tasted like? Where the hell did that come from?
"Ne, Sango-chan?" Kagome motioned for her friend to come closer. Sango obliged and scooted over, leaning in so no one else could hear. Luckily, Inuyasha was too involved with his food to even attempt to eavesdrop.
"I…I wanna kiss Inuyasha, and it won't be as weird if we all play. Onegai?" She pouted, only half telling the truth. Sango sighed and agreed, though not happily. How did she get herself into these messes?
"I go first!" Kagome grinned and gave the brush a good spin. Everyone, including Inuyasha who had even stopped eating for a moment, watched the brush slow down with anticipation. Kagome held her breath as it stopped…And landed on Sango.
"Ah…Ano…" Sango scooted uncomfortably to the side, away from the brush which seemed to point to her no matter where she moved. Kagome laughed nervously as both Inuyasha and Miroku peered at her in interest.
"Ya know, maybe I should spin again…"
"Kagome-sama, you did say you had to kiss whoever it pointed to."
"Hentai!" Sango slapped Miroku as a blush colored her cheeks. Fearfully, she looked to see Kagome slowly crawling towards her. At least, the taijiya noticed, she didn't look thrilled with the idea either.
"M-matte, Kagome-chan…" Sango scooted away. It wasn't that Kagome was repulsive, it was more of the lecherous eyes eagerly waiting.
"Sango-chan, let's just get this over with." Kagome smiled grimly and quickly, before either could change their mind, planted a quick kiss on Sango's cheek. Sango visibly relaxed and heaved a big sigh, ignoring the disappointed look on Miroku's face. Inuyasha, Kagome noted, looked almost horrified.
"Okay Inuyasha! You're next!" Kagome pushed the brush towards him. He hesitated for a moment, before spinning the brush. It slowed down for a second and he almost thought it would land on Sango again, until it stopped. Everyone grew silent.
Inuyasha quickly jumped up and stalked over to his victim. Kagome felt her heart race as he kneeled before her. Gulping, she closed her eyes.
"Kagome…"
"Ahem!"
Inuyasha shot Miroku a glare over his shoulder before turning back to face Kagome. Slowly, he moved forward…and planted a kiss on her cheek. Kagome fell over.
"Y-You call that a kiss!?"
"W-what are you talking about, wench!? I'm just copying you!"
"I only kissed Sango on the cheek because she's a girl!"
"Fine!"
Inuyasha grabbed her by the waist and pulled her against his chest before her lips came down on hers. Sango blushed and averted her eyes, feeling as if she were intruding on a private moment, which in a way, she was. Glancing over at Miroku, it seemed he didn't intend to turn away.
"Houshi no baka." She hissed as she pushed his head to the floor. She heard him whine before growing silent.
"A-Ano, Kagome-chan…Inuyasha…"
Kagome slowly pulled back from the kiss and looked into Inuyasha's eyes. Blushing, she scooted away and averted her eyes. Inuyasha mumbled as he went back to his seat.
"M-Miroku-sama, it's your turn."
"Ah, hai." Miroku grinned and looked over at Sango, who shivered in return. Holding her breath, she watched the brush spin. And spin. And spin. And spin.
"Houshi-sama, I really don't think there was any need to spin the brush that hard." Sango said dryly as she tried to keep track of the rotating object. Finally, when she thought her head was going to explode, it stopped.
She heard Kagome's delighted gasp and still couldn't bring herself to look away from the brush, which was currently pointed at her. Her mouth suddenly dry, she risked a glance at Miroku, who's eyes, much to her discomfort, were shining.
"Hurry up Houshi-sama, let's get this over wi-" Sango's eyes widened when, without warning, Miroku's lips were on hers. Finding she quite enjoyed the sensation, she allowed her eyes to flutter closed. As suddenly as he had kissed her, he pulled away, leaving Sango rather disappointed.
"It looks like Kagome-sama and Inuyasha have…Fled."
Sango blinked and turned to look where he was pointing. Sure enough, besides the brush and empty ramen container, they were alone. Smiling deviously, Miroku leaned towards Sango again. His mouth was just centimeters away when she placed a finger on his lips.
"I never got my turn." She pouted, gesturing towards the brush. Miroku chuckled and scooped up the object and handed it to her.
"Spin away."
"Don't need to." She smiled coyly before throwing the brush over her shoulder and wrapping her arms around his neck. Miroku's eyes lit up as his lips met with hers and he laid her gently on the floor.
"I think I like this game."
"Me too." Sango giggled.
"Oi, now where are we gonna go if they're in there?"
"I-Inuyasha!" Kagome felt a blush cover her cheeks. Could he be suggesting…?
"I mean, I'm still hungry and all the ramen is…Why are you looking at me like that?"
"I-N-U-Y-A-S-H-A!!! OSUWARI!!"
