Chapter 16: A Good Time
As the night dragged on, Inuyasha and Kagome stood in the middle of a very uncomfortable silence. "MEOW!" Kagome's cat Buyo had meowed out after walking behind Kagome.
"BUYO!" Kagome shouted out in surprise.
"What does your cat want?" Inuyasha asked.
"He's probably hungry or maybe he wants to protect me from you." Kagome joking teased.
Inuyasha just blew off her comment. "Keh! Like a cat could ever stop me!" Inuyasha boosted.
"OH NO! SAVE ME FROM INUYASHA!" Kagome jokingly cried out.
"Damn you! You can't
talk about me like that!" Inuyasha called out as he walked toward
Kagome.
Kagome just ran away, heading to her room. "Gotta
catch me first..." Kagome teased.
Inuyasha leaped and landed in front of Kagome. "HA! You can't escape from me." Inuyasha said.
Kagome just laughed. "HA! You... you can catch me but... HA! You can't... You can't stop my plans!" She joked.Inuyasha found himself more comfortable and confident again. He couldn't explain why exactly he had started following Kagome's strange little game but it made him feel good. He grabbed Kagome in his arms and hugged her. "What do we tell the others?" Kagome suddenly asked.
"Huh? We have to tell them anything? Those bastards are far too nosy anyways." Inuyasha exclaimed.
Inuyasha had regained his courage rather quickly. Considering how long it took to reach this moment and then lose it, he was surprised at how quickly he managed to regain his composure. Not completely but at least the uncomfortable silence was now gone.
"What should we do now? When are we going back?" Kagome asked.
"We can go back whenever you want. You want to go back now?" Inuyasha responded.
"A little later. I just want to spend more time with you... like this..." Kagome answered.
"You're really crazy sometimes, you know that." Inuyasha said as his arms were still wrapped around Kagome.
