On with the Story!
Road Trip Gone Wild!
Kagome slammed a pop can on the counter of her kitchen. She had just downed a whole can, and she still didn't feel any better. She was ticked. After all she did for them today, she would have thought Inu-yasha would return some sort of kind gesture by agreeing to go on the trip. 'I swear!' She thought. 'If it's not his way, it's no way!'
Inu-yasha cautiously looked around the corner into the kitchen. He heard Kagome slam something, and her furious "Urghs!" wasn't very reassuring. 'Stupid Monk,' He yelled inside his head. 'Yeah, sure! Now would be the perfect time!' He leaned further so he could get a better view of the kitchen.
Just then, Kagome turned in his direction and saw him. "Don't be spying on me!" She screamed at him. She turned back to the counter and grabbed a plate...but not just ANY plate, her mom's favorite China. She didn't care; she threw it at him anyway.
Inu-yasha jumped back as the plate crashed into the wall. Pieces flew everywhere.
"What the hells your problem?!" He barked at her.
"What do you mean, what's my problem?!" She barked back.
He looked around the corner again, but quickly ducked back. Kagome threw another plate.
"It's always you, you, YOU!" She continued. She grabbed another plate. She wasn't worried about running out; she had a kitchen sink filled with artillery. "If you don't suggest it, you don't want anything to do with it!"
"Will you stop throwing stuff so we can talk like civilized demons and priestess!"
He peeked around the corner, and then jumped back, but nothing happened. He looked again.
Kagome was leaning up against the counter with her arms crossed over her chest. She glared at him. "I don't care what you say," She hissed. "I'm going, and I'm sure Miroku would like to go, too."
Inu-yasha walked in and stood in front of her. He just looked at her for a second, and then reached for her hand. He pulled it near him, and then started caressing it like the day before at the stream. "I came to tell you I changed my mind," He said, watching his thumb go in circles on the top of her hand. "But you didn't give me much of a chance, launching things at me and all..."
Kagome couldn't believe what she was hearing. Inu-yasha, changing his mind? Unheard of! She didn't say anything. She got the heavy feeling again, and him doing that thing he does to her hand isn't helping any either.
"And, I've been thinking a lot, lately..." Inu-yasha continued slowly. "And a lot of that thinking has to do with you."
He looked at her, making sure what he was saying wasn't wrong. He didn't want her to feel uncomfortable, but most of all, he didn't want to be rejected.
Kagome couldn't believe her ears. Inu-yasha said she's been on his mind? She didn't know what to say, but she didn't want to just stand there. What if he thought her saying nothing meant she wasn't interested? She gulped.
"Y-yeah?" was all she could stutter.
He shook his head. "Kagome, you mean a lot to me, and the reason I didn't want us to go on this trip is because of that bastard, Ho-ho."
Kagome laughed. She couldn't help it. At a moment so serious, she starts busting a gut.
Inu-yasha was baffled. Was she laughing at him and what he was saying? He let go of her hand.
"No, no," Kagome said in between laughs. She picked up his hands into hers and held them. "I'm not laughing at you, just at what you called him. His name's Hojo!" She laughed again, holding onto his hands tighter.
Inu-yasha smiled. Not because of what she was laughing at, but at the fact he got her to smile again.
When she got done laughing, she looked him in the eyes for the longest time. Inu-yasha lifted his hands and rubbed her cheek with the back of his fingers.
"Kagome, I'm sorry for ever hurting you. You mean so much to me, the thought of losing you would be too much."
Kagome put her finger to his lips. She understood, and she didn't want him to feel as if he needed to explain himself to her.
Inu-yasha kissed her finger. Then he leaned his head down towards her, bringing his lips closer to hers. He always wondered if her lips were as soft as they looked, now he would find out.
Kagome's heavy feeling just gained about a million pounds. Inu-yasha was about to kiss her, and Kikyo was far from his mind. She could tell. This was perfect.
She tilted her head up.
"KAGOME AND INU-YASHA! KISSING IN A TREE!"
Inu-yasha and Kagome nearly jumped out of their skins. They looked out the kitchen window to see Miroku making silly faces and prancing around like a Peter Pan auditioner.
"I'm going to kill him!" Inu-yasha yelled as he ran for the door.
"K-I-S-S-I-N-G!" Miroku yelled.
"Where did he learn that song?!" Kagome screamed, reaching for a knife and running after Inu-yasha.
That evening, Kagome called Hojo as she tended Miroku's wounds. He now had a lump on his head from her hitting him to match the one on his cheek from her mother slapping him. Inu-yasha slept peacefully, resting his head on her thigh. For some reason, saying all they had said early, it felt as if a black cloud had been lifted. She felt more relaxed. "Hello?" Hojo answered sleepily.
Kagome whispered. Miroku was dozing off as well. She looked at the clock; it read 11:32 p.m.
"Hey, Hojo, it's Kagome."
"KAGOME?!" He yelled so loud, Kagome hoped he didn't wake Inu-yasha or Miroku. Inu-yasha stirred, but stayed asleep.
"Yeah, hi, sorry I woke you,"
"Hey, no problem, why are you whispering?"
"Inu-yasha and Miroku are sleeping...I don't want to disturb them."
"Oh, okay. Did you think about the trip?"
"Yeah, we decided to go."
"REALLY? That's awesome! We could leave any time you're ready! My uncle is so excited about meeting you...I told him a lot about you."
Kagome laughed nervously. "That's so nice, but uh, let us get ready and stuff, and I can call you later tomorrow, okay?"
"That would be great," Hojo answered happily. "I'll be counting the minutes until you call."
She laughed nervously again. "Well, no need for that, heh...heh."
"Okay, well, good night Kagome. Sweet dreams."
"Uh, yeah," She said quickly. "Nite!"
Okay, that's it for chapter 5. I know it's short, but I have work to do today...so sorry! But I promise to write 6 soon! Don't forget to review! Later!
