Chapter 7- Kagome, Queen of Sarcasm!
Kagome smiled as a light blush crept to her cheeks.
'This will take some getting used to...' she thought.
The miko was brought to reality as she felt the warm breath of a certain wolf demon covering her neck and fought to withhold a giggle. The struggle was a futile one.
'Kag-Kagome?" Kouga asked sleepily. He sluggishly opened his eyes and was all but disappointed at the position he found himself in.
Kouga had his arms wrapped protectively around his love, his face buried in her hair as her arms grabbed at his arms, pulling her body closer to his warm chest. They had woken in this state and though she was a tad flushed, both enjoyed the state of comfort that they shared.
"Good morning, Kouga," Kagome yawned as she pulled her arms into a stretch above her head. "How did you sleep?"
He pulled her into a tight embrace before replying. "VERY well."
Kagome giggled in response and kissed him softly on the lips.
"Glad to hear it."

The hanyou dashed along the worn path that led to Kaede's village with Kikyou in his arms. The dead miko had convinced him to return to his companions and resume the hunt for the jewel only the night before.
-Flashback-
"But we can just gather the rest of the shards together, Kikyou! We don't need those weaklings!" Inuyasha cried pleadingly. He knew that seeing the others would only slow him down, and he definitely didn't want to be on the receiving end of Sango's hiraikotsu when she found out what had almost happened to Kagome, thanks to him.
"You know as well as I that we need to restore the Shikon to it's original state before anyone else, and if necessary, use the help of the monk and taijiya that you traveled with. Do you not want to use the jewel to wish for my soul so that we can be together? Or are you still in love with that girl with no power who claims to be my reincarnation?" she asked coldly.
"Of course not Kikyou! I love you! Kagome is only an annoying memory to me now. I want nothing more than for us to be together!"
Kikyou turned so he wouldn't be able to see the ghost of a smile on her face. 'How easily manipulated you are, Inuyasha.'
-End Flashback-
As they neared the village, Inuyasha's nose alerted him of the presence of the last two people that he wished to see. 'Kouga and Kagome...'
**
Never a step behind, Kouga's nose also alerted him of the arriving duo. "Guess who's here, Kagome?"
The only reply he got was a groan. "Don't tell me... the necrophiliac and the corpse herself? Great..." Kagome murmured. 'Just what I need right now...'
She immediately sought after and alerted the others so they could give the returning hanyou a proper welcoming.
**
"Well if it isn't the asshole himself? Tell me, how's it going, Inuyasha? Screw any corpses lately?" Kagome asked with venom dripping from her voice. The others had to bite back a laugh at the greeting he had received.
"Shut up wench." Inuyasha growled back. It felt wrong for him to be so angry at Kagome, but for some unexplainable reason he felt the sudden need to attack her and defend Kikyou by any means possible (hmmm, a spell perchance?).
Kagome laughed loudly before answering just as viciously as he had. "You know, I don't care what anyone says. The whole 'wench' thing never gets old. EVER. Honestly, I know you're an idiot, but can't you at least TRY to come up with something better than that?!"
The air was filled with tension before a wave of laughter washed over the group, excluding the half breed and dead witch.
"Laugh again, I dare you!" growled while gripping tetsusaiga's handle. Before he could move to pull it from it's sheath, however, he was met with an infuriated miko pointing an arrow at his face.
"Try anything and I'll have you pinned to the tree behind you faster that you can say 'dead dog'." Kagome spat vehemently. 'I can't let him threaten me or my friends anymore.'
She could hear Kouga growling at her left and see Sango pull the bindings from her bone boomerang on her right.
"Don't worry, guys. Even he knows better than to move to attack. Oh, by the way Inuyasha, I wanted to thank you for saving me from Kikyou," The hanyou glared at her. "Oh... wait! That was Kouga! How could I have forgotten? He's the one who saved me and you're the one who was going to let me die! He's the one who took care of me and you're the worthless pile of shit who's dating a dead girl. Must've slipped my mind..." Kagome smirked and waited for the hanyou's inevitable reaction.
'H-how dare she! Grrrrr...' Inuyasha was internally fuming and his face was set in a grimace, yet he made no reply (probably because he valued his life).
It was then that Kikyou decided to speak. "We only came here because we know that you are still hunting for Naraku, as are we. We should fight him together. It is the only way that he will be defeated."
"And why should we trust you?! You tried to kill Kagome, and we all know that you're, how should I put this, FRIENDLY with the bastard (Naraku)." Sango yelled. As much as she wanted and tried to contain her anger, she could show no remorse to the woman who had tried to kill Kagome.
Before anyone else could say anything, Kagome cut in. "No, Sango. She's right. If we want to kill Naraku we will have to work together, whether we like it or not," she cast an icy look to Inuyasha and Kikyou, "even if we wish that certain people were dead and in hell, where they belong." After that was said, Kagome put her arrow back in her quiver and turned to the prince of wolves with a large smile on her face (which Inuyasha wasn't too happy about) and calmly asked him, "Kouga, would you like to go for a walk with me?"
"Of course, Kags," he replied before scooping her into his arms, kissing her heatedly on the lips and bounding away towards the forest.
Nobody noticed the look of despair and loss that flew across the hanyou's face before it was replaced with anger and he leapt into a nearby tree.
Nobody except Kikyou.
AN: So?! What do you think? I hope at least SOMEONE enjoys this story. People automatically don't want to read it because it's Kouga/Kag and not Inu/Kag. That's what makes it better, people! Come on, open up your minds! Review please!
