I re-wrote chapter 7 a little because i sent the wrong one earlier

Chapter 8

Shippo woke up and then noticed that Kagome and Inuyasha were gone. He popped his head outside and saw Inuyasha sitting in Kagome's lap, Kagome and Inuyasha were awake now.

'They look funny together now. I would be angry that Inuyasha is being a kid and taking my kid place with Kagome, but he loves her without knowing it anymore. I can't really hurt him either way… HE'S 5 FOR CRYING OUT LOUD AND DANGEROUS!!!' he said to himself.

Shippo ran up towards them. "Hi Kagome… Hi Inuyasha!" He said cheerfully as he reached to them.
"Good morning Shippo, did you have a good sleep?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah! I was flying in my dream!" He jumped in the air and flapped his arms.
"That's good, sounds fun too, and what about you Inuyasha? Did you have a good dream?" She looked down at him.
"Huh… oh… uh… it was okay… I guess." He didn't want to really talk about it and she knew that so she quickly changed the subject.
"Hey, why don't you two play a game of tag, and I'll go get some fish for breakfast." She smiled as she was setting Inuyasha out of her lap on to the ground.
"Can we come with you Kagome?" Shippo asked cheerfully swishing his bushy tail around.

Kagome nodded to him; saying they could come along with her. They jumped around for a while, and then noticed Kagome was walking on with a head start.

"Wait up Kagome!" Shippo yelled as Inuyasha and himself ran to catch up. Shippo reached and pounced on her shoulder and Inuyasha quickly grabbed her hand as if it was an instinct. Kagome didn't mind now, she was used getting use to it.

They arrived at the stream were there was lots of fish they could catch. Shippo jumped in the water splashing around and getting Kagome a little wet. Inuyasha on the other hand was on a rock watching them. Kagome finally finished grabbing about 20 fishes and was saying to head off to the hut.

They were heading back when Kagome stopped and paused for a moment, like she seemed that she was even frozen. Her face was serious and filled with a concentrating face on, and she even looked stiff for the moment. She was feeling something nearby but couldn't tell what it was. Kagome shook it off and then continued to keep walking forth to the hut. They cocked their eye brows at her in confusion but went along with it then chose to ignore it. They walked not far behind her till the met the hut that they knew very well.

Kagome was cooking the fish now and told the boys to play. Shippo saw that Kirara was awake and so he went to play with her, and Inuyasha didn't play; the dream from the night was still on his mind he didn't like it, it was annoying him so much and couldn't do anything about it yet.

Kagome didn't want to ask him when they were around the others because he might get scared, embarrassed, or even scared and shy. But, now was her chance to ask him since Miroku and Sango were still sleeping, Shippo and Kirara were still playing, and Inuyasha and she were close enough to talk without any of the others to even know about it. But she wouldn't start off just asking away, that would probably startle to, making him probably not want to talk at all.

"Inuyasha, what's on your mind, you seem to look so fragile at this time being like this morning which is usually rare." She said while putting more fish on over the fire without even looking at Inuyasha.
"Oh...uh… It's… Nothing." He knew he had to tell her, but… how could he explain it?
"Something is bugging you, isn't there?" She continued with the fish.
"Yeah…" He looked and sounded guilty.
"Do you want to talk about it? It sometimes helps to relieve you from the annoyance." She looked at him slowly so he would she wasn't pressuring him.

Inuyasha just got off the mini boulder he was on and decided to sit behind Kagome, their backs were against each other. He sat behind her because he wasn't quite sure of what she would say or do to him; as if she would.

"Last night I had a dream…no, more like… a nightmare. A village was caught on fire, you were in the fire. I couldn't do anything at all, you wouldn't let me. You just wanted me safe." He said, clutching on his pants with some anger and some fear just thinking of it. "I wanted to help but, you didn't want me near it, you just kept telling me to run away, and to not come back near the fire. When I returned and the fire was dead… you were burned and no longer alive."
His grip on his pants was very tight and wouldn't let go. He was so tense now he didn't notice that Kagome had turned around. His back was facing her; he was shaking a little because of his anger and almost cried because of his fear. She placed a hand on him so he could calm down. He felt her hand and released the anger and had a loose grip on his pants. He seemed relieved she was there.
"A man with long hair who was in red came near me, asking why I let this happen. I told him I never wanted it to happen. He yelled at me a lot, but he told me things that I should remember." He said as he looked over his shoulder to Kagome. She had the face of understanding on her. He still thought of the man who came to him in his dream and Kagome. Either way, he wouldn't let anything happen to her like he said.

"It's okay; it was just a bad dream." She said in a tone of comfort.
"Yeah, but it felt so real, and I thought you left me, and… I left you, I… was scared." He turned around and hugged her tightly. He liked to hug her; he liked her scent and how he felt around her. He just felt so comfortable, relaxing, and safe. "Inuyasha." She broke their hug and picked him up above her so he could look at her eyes. "I would never leave you." She smiled happily and was brought back into another hug by the happy Inuyasha. "I'll always stay with you." She stroked his silver her in their hug as he rubbed his head in her neck to get more relaxed in her arms and body.

'That's what I want and nothing more.' He said in his mind as he breathed in her scent.

Sango and Miroku woke up tiredly at the smell of fried fish and looked outside the hut to see Inuyasha and Kagome hugging. Miroku did a small cough to let the two know they were awake. Kagome heard them and knew how Inuyasha was when he was seen being nice so she loosened her hug on him, he still didn't let go of her though, he was still hugging her tightly. Kagome remembered that he's different since he's just a kid. They then let each other go and Inuyasha said that he was going to go get Shippo and Kirara so they could eat. The others nodded and he ran off, Kagome smiled and then gave Miroku and Sango some fish.

"Kagome, want to go take a bath after breakfast?" Sango asked cheerfully.
"Oh-wow! That sounds good! Sure, lets take one when were done, this time ask Kirara to watch Miroku." She and Sango started to laugh.
"Oh right, I will!" She scowled at Miroku who was just sitting there eating his fish.
"Aw, come on. I don't bite." He teased.
"No, but you touch!" Sango replied.
"My hand is possessed by a demon." He explained.
"You're possessed by something, but it isn't a demon that's for sure." Kagome remarked and Miroku sweat dropped with a false laugh.

"Shippo! Kirara! Lets go Kagome is done cooking the fish, its chow time!" Inuyasha shouted.
"Kay Inuyasha, we're coming!" Shippo replied.

Shippo came running with Kirara towards Inuyasha like they were going to tackle him or something. Inuyasha was running towards the hut where Kagome was away from them. Inuyasha saw Kagome standing and next to her. Shippo and Kirara were still running. Inuyasha jumped from behind Kagome and was getting ready to tackle them. Instead, Kirara stopped and sat to watch, Shippo still ran. Shippo tackled Inuyasha and they both fell on Kagome. It was funny that they made a small pile. Shippo and Inuyasha had headaches because they hit each others head. Kagome winced at the pain they made. He body wasn't even healed yet and they made it sore.

"Shippo! Inuyasha! Get off of Kagome! She's not fully recovered!" Miroku shouted.

They immediately come got of Kagome and asked if she was okay. She nodded slowly in some pain, but she was okay.

"We're sorry Kagome; it's my fault that I tackled Inuyasha." He said, bowing for forgiveness.
"Its okay Shippo, its no ones fault for anything, you two are just kids, and it's just a little pain." She laughed a little.
"Are you sure Kagome?" Inuyasha sounded bad, like it was his fault she was hurt; technically it was though from the demon. "Yes, I'm fine, you two should eat now." She smiled hand handed them some fish to eat. They knew she wasn't mad but was in a little pain.

'Is she ever mad?' Inuyasha thought as he gazed upon Kagome's figure and then continued to eat.

"Miroku, if they accidentally do that again, don't yell at them and let me take care of it, okay?" She request with a tiny glare.
"Uh… Sure Kagome, I'm sorry, it's just that you've been in a lot of pain since the demon, and I'm not sure if you are still in danger of death or not." Miroku explained himself.
"I know; its okay. Thank you for your concern." She spoke as she nodded at Miroku. He nodded back.

Kagome quickly just ate 1 fish and claimed that she was full. Everyone else was done eating also so Sango had suggested that they could go take their bath now. Kagome smiled and agreed.

Umm... I won't be here on thur. fri. sat. be back hoem around sunday... blah.. bye!
