"IjustwatchedascarymovieandIhatebeingaloneafterIwatchoneandtheoneIjustsawwasreally creepyandIwasjustwonderingifyouwouldjusthangouttilltherainstopsorsomething!" she cried in one breath, afraid that if she said it normally she would freeze up and become flustered.

"Uh, ok, do what now?"

That wasn't the answer she wanted. "I said I just watched a scary movie and I hate being alone after I watch one and the one I just saw was really creepy and I was just wondering if you would just hang out till the rain stops or something!" she said more flustered and embarrassed than before.

Inuyasha froze. A night alone with Kagome would be so...awkward! "Kagome, look, I don't" he started, but seeing Kagome's frightened face made him change his mind. "Fine. Demo only till the rain stops, all right?" the demon sighed walking toward Kagome.

"Sure! Fine! I just don't wanna be alone!" the miko whined.

Miroku jotted own possible sentences, all as stupid as the first.

"Just give up already! I doubt you even heard anything!" Sango cried in vexation.

"No wait, just one more try or so." After a few minutes, a triumphant smiled curled on the monks face. "Oh ho, so THAT'S what Kagome-sama wanted, is it?"

Curiously, Sango inquired, "Um, so, uh, you figured it out huh? Let's hear it."

"Heh, you didn't think it was anything a minute ago! But anyway, I think it as Peas taste all right with cheese!"

"You baka! That's all you came up with!!? Here, let me try!" the demon hunter cried, running over and seating herself next to the monk.

Inuyasha and Kagome sat in silence on the den couch. A few scented candles were scattered about the room, making it seem more like some sort of romantic evening than a frightened fifteen year old and a bored honyou.

"So, uh, maybe we could a play a game or something?" Kagome suggested, breaking the silence.

"Yeah? Like what?" Inuyahsa replied, trying not to seem too interested.

"Well, we could play the fainting game, but that's stupid, truth or dare would be perfect, but having only two people isn't that much fun, a board game, but I don't feel like having to teach you one, or we could just talk or read or anything to make this not seem awkward!" she said, shouting her last part.

"I'm in." Inuyasha replied, tagging along as Kagome ran up stairs to get some things from her room.

"Ok, so I think I've got it now!" Sango said, an odd smirk on her face, "Demo this doesn't seem like something Kagome-chan would say. Are you sure you heard right?"

"Tell me what your sentence is!" Miroku called from his sulking position in the corner. So what? He had only touched her butt! She didn't have to get all testy and beat him until everyone bone in his body felt as if they were broken.

"Well, um, the sentence I came up with is "Please stay the night with me', and if it's true, it would be a reasonable explanation why their not back yet." Sango said quietly.

Feeling a miraculous recovery, he bounded out the door. "Well come along dearest Sango, lets go pay a visit to our friends. After all, two is a crowd and or something like that!!" he cried racing toward the well.

"Miroku! Maybe they want it to only be the two of them! Did it ever occur to you that they might want you to get out of their business! And I might as well be talking to a brick wall!" she cried after him, taking off also.

Imuyasha and Kagome sat facing each other on the couch looking at the huge 'Scrap book' she called it, open on both their laps.

"So you're saying that this box of yours can make an image of a real person?" he inquired, trying to comprehend this 'camera'.

"Right. I could take a picture of you, and I could have an image of you around so that when I start to..."

"Start to what?" Inuyasha inquired curiously.

"Uh, look at this picture." the girl said hastily shoving a picture into his hands to change the subject.

"Oh, so this is a picture of you?" Inuyasha said examining the school picture she had shown him. Kagome didn't even know which one she had given him.

"Uh-huh."

"Oh. Can I keep it?"

Kagome was shocked. He actually wanted a picture of her to carry around? She felt herself blush slightly. "Well, sure, if you really want it." the girl replied, brushing some of her hair behind her ear, slightly embarrassed.

"Perfect! Now when I get mad at you I can fuss and curse all I want at this little picture because it can't sit me!" Inuyasha said looking quite pleased with himself.

Kagome frowned. "Oh, so that's why you want it."

Miroku continued to race up the shrine stairs and toward Kagome's house, Sango close behind. Throwing open the door, Miroku frowned. He had been expecting something more interesting than Kagome whacking Inuyasha on the head with some sort of huge book.

"Serves you right for thinking you would get a sneaky peek, you hentai!" Sango said smugly.

"Stop it wench! That hurts!"Inuyasha cried trying to block the books blows.

"Say it!"

"Hai, Hai! Whatever! Sumimasen sumimasen! Gomen gomen! Now stop hitting me or there will be nothing left of you to hit me with!" the demon cried fiercely, trying to snatch the book out of Kagome's hands.

"You're a jerk, Inuyasha! I think I would have rather have Miroku stay with me than you!" the girl said sniffing slightly.

"You get your wish, then, you baka wench. Here's Miroku and Sango! Told you they would start to get suspicious!"

Later

"I would rather die and be eaten by worms and maggots than get 'friendly' with Kagome, as you so nicely put it!" Inuyasha cried furiously, shaking Miroku silly in the process. Miroku had been making nice comments all evening, or at least the 20 minutes he had been here. Kagome, as soon as Inuyasha had taken the book from her, ran off in tears to her bedroom, Sango close behind, so now, Sango and Kagome where locked away in the miko's room, Inuyasha and Miroku downstairs chewing each other out.

"Really? Man, I would take her in a heartbeat. She's gorgeous. Such full lips, I bet she'd make a great kisser." Miroku drawled, practically drooling a puddle.

Inuyasha frowned, "Step off hentai, you don't have a chance with her! Jeez, what would you do next? Spy on her in the bathroom?" Inuyasha spat, furious at the monk for having such ideas about Kagome.

"No, I haven't." Miroku said, a wicked grin on his face, "yet."

"Don't you dare get near Kagome!" the demon growled, jerking Miroku to him by his collar. "Believe me, if I figure out you have, and you know I will if you do, I'll-"

Sango and Kagome emerging from the bedroom cut him off.

"Knock it off!" Sango cried seeing Inuyasha holding Miroku off the floor by his collar. Something she had always wanted to do, but had been to short for.

Frowning, the youkai dumped the monk on the floor.

"So you guys wanna play a game or something?" Sango said trying to find a way to keep everyone out of each other's throats. The electricity was still out, and the rain was so hard it prevented anything from making it to the shrine without being knocked out first.

"I want silence." Inuyasha snapped, crossing his arms and glaring at Miroku who smiled innocently.

"How about truth or dare?" Sango suggested, not knowing any other games considering Kagome hadn't taught them many.

"How about spin the bottle?" Miroku suggested rubbing his hands together eagerly. Kagome was now regretting ever bringing THAT game knowledge to the Inu game.

"How about you shut up?" Inuyasha snapped, smirking slightly.

"How about you quit crushing my dreams?" Miroku snapped back without thinking. A moment later her was in a ball on the floor, Inuyasha kicking him violently crying constantly," Come on, say it again! Want me to continue to crush your dreams? Ok!"

"Sit Inuyasha!" Kagome cried, the first thing she had said sense coming downstairs.

Cursing, the two men lay in a tangled mass on the floor.
