Okay, thanks for the reviews. Here's chapter six! Note: I don't own Inuyasha!
Chapter6
A Familiar Friend
Kagome's eyes shot open as a loud roar of thunder echoed through the night air. She quickly sat up in, looking around the room nervously. She looked to her left and saw Inuyasha peacefully sleeping there. She smiled warmly, happy that he was there with her.
"Inuyasha," she whispered, brushing his bangs back. She leaned down and kissed his forehead lightly, causing him to stir.
He looked up at her.
"Hey..." he whispered. "What's wrong?"
"Nothing," she sighed.
BOOM! BOOM!
Kagome cried out and jumped under the covers as a large crack of lightning went through the air and the thunder boomed loudly. Inuyasha chuckled.
"Heh, so you're afraid of lightning and thunder huh?"
He pulled the covers over his head and looked at the trembling form of Kagome. He put his arm around her waist and pulled her to him so that his body was pressed against his.
"Don't be scared," he whispered against her lips. "I'm here with you."
Her face turned red, but she didn't pull away from him. She just stared into his eyes. She closed the gap between their lips, moaning lightly as he kissed her back. He began to lick her lips, which made Kagome gasp.
"Sorry," he whispered, pulling away from her.
"It's ok... I- I liked it," she stuttered.
She leaned over and kissed his cheek, rubbing his ear lightly. He frowned.
"Not again."
"But I thought you liked it," she giggled.
"I do... I just..." He shrugged. "I don't know."
Kagome smiled.
"We should get back to sleep. We're going to have so much fun," she squealed.
Inuyasha nodded.
"Okay."
"But first, I have to close the blinds."
Kagome got up and walked over to the window while Inuyasha just lay there and watched her. She began to close the blinds, but froze as a look of terror played across her face. There was a bolt of lightning, and for one moment, Kagome thought she saw two blue eyes right in front of her. There was another bolt of lightning and the pair of eyes disappeared. Her eyes began to shake and she whimpered in fear as the night at Tarantula's castle replayed in her head.
'Koga,' she thought. A tear streamed down her face and her hand began to tremble. Inuyasha growled.
"Kagome!"
He jumped out of the bed and caught her just as she collapsed to the ground.
"What's wrong?!"
Kagome frowned. "I killed him.... I killed Koga and now his spirit is back to haunt me."
Inuyasha held her in his arms. "No Kagome. It's over... He's... He's gone... It's over now. Don't be sad, please..."
He held her until her sobs became small sniffles and she finally fell asleep. When she finally did, he lay her in the bed, tucking her in. He walked over to the window, which was in the corner of the room and looked down out of it.
'I won't let him or anyone else bother you... Especially not here...'

Miroku lay in his bed, wide-awake. The clock on top of the dresser in her room read 3:10 AM. He rolled over and sighed.
Flashback
Miroku was standing in front of Sango in the kitchen earlier that day.
"Sango..."
"What's wrong?" Sango asked, taking a step closer to him. "What wrong Miroku?"
"Nothing it's just..."
"Yes?"
"Would you... Would you bed with me tonight?"
"What?" Sango growled between gritted teeth. She sweat dropped. "Miroku! How dare you?! I thought you were a changed man! What a perv!"
"Sango! I was just asking! Get your mind out of the gutter! And besides, the only reason I asked was because Lady Kagome said she would bed with Inuyasha if I did with you!"
Sango balled her hand into a fist.
"Get MY mind out of the gutter?! You're the one who's always groping people and asking them to bare your child! And you tell me to get my head out of the gutter!? I don't believe this!" she yelled.
"You have no idea what my life has been like," he said between gritted teeth. "I was only the tender age of eight when my dad was sucked up by his wind tunnel. I don't even know who my mother is. I had to try my best to keep the generations going. I didn't even know if I was going to live to see the next day. But than I met Kagome and Inuyasha. They led me to believe that we could and we would defeat Naraku, and that's exactly what we did. And now I have no reason to grope or ask women to bare my child. And the one woman who I actually lov-"
He paused.
"Never mind."
He than walked out of the kitchen and into his room.
End Flashback
Now Miroku was lying wide-awake in his bed, feeling slightly bad for yelling at Sango. There was a loud roar of thunder and his door opened. He slowly leaned over and stuck his hand under the bed, grabbing his staff.
"Miroku," came a soft voice that belonged to Sango. Miroku relaxed and let go of his staff sitting up with a sigh.
"Hello Sango."
She nodded and walked into his room, closing the door behind him.
"I just wanted to.... Apologize. I had no right to yell at you earlier. You were right. I don't know what your life has been like, and I shouldn't have judged you. I'm sorry..."
"I should be the one apologizing. I shouldn't have yelled at you," he said calmly.
"No, you didn't yell at me, not once. You might have raised your voice a bit, but you never yelled at me," she whispered.
"Anyways," she continued. "I was just wondering of I... if I could take you up on your offer."
She smiled lightly and held up a pillow.
"I'm sleeping on the couch and it's kind of... scary..."
Miroku smiled, scooting over.
"These beds in Kagome's time are much more comfortable than the ones in our time. It would be a shame for you not to be able to sleep in one," he said. He pat the open space next to him and smiled warmly.
Sango blushed. She shyly walked over to the bed and lay down next to him. She sighed as she pulled the covers over her body. Now she was comfortable. Miroku was right. These beds were comfortable! Much more comfortable than those 'couches.' She let out a light gasp as she felt an arm go around her waist.
"Miroku," she whispered.
Sango turned around and her blush deepened as she came face to face with Miroku. They were just an inch apart and she could feel his cold breath against her lips.
Her eyes widened as he leaned forward and kissed her lips lightly. Sango lay there frozen for a moment and than slid under the covers. She frowned.
'What a coward Miroku must think I am,' she thought.
She jumped slightly as Miroku slid under the covers with her.
"Don't be shy," he laughed.
Sango looked down and blushed.
"Are you scared to be in a relationship?" he asked puzzled.
"I am not!" she yelled in defense. She blushed again and looked down.
"I'm just..."
Miroku smiled.
"I understand," he whispered.
Sango shook her head.
"It's not you Miroku! It's just that... just that..."
He pulled the covers off of their head and smiled at her.
"I said I understand Lady Sango. Now, get some rest."
She nodded.
"Thank you for understanding."
He smiled.
"No problem."

A dark figure stood in front of the glass sliding door in the living room of the hotel room. The figure was soaked with water and mud. His clothes were torn and tattered and his hair was worn down, not in it's usual style of a high ponytail. His hair was plastered to his skin and he had cuts all over his feet. His blue eyes glow in the night. He peered inside of the glass door and smiled. He could have easily broken the glass and entered the room, but he didn't want anyone to wake up. He pushed his pointer finger against the glass and made a small, un-noticeable circle in the glass.
"Heh," he muttered as he slipped his arm into the hole, quickly unlocking the door. He slid the door open and stepped in, quickly closing it behind him. He put the glass back in it its place carefully, making sure it didn't fall. He looked down at his feet, disgusted at how dirty his feet were. He looked around and than jumped to the entrance to the kitchen, walking in silently. He looked around until he found a brown towel hanging on the oven. He pulled it off and quickly wiped off his feet. He turned and jumps back to the exact spot he had been moments before.
He quickly dried the rest of his body with the towel and with the dirtier side of it, set it on the ground. No one would ever know he was there. He sniffed the air intently. His scent wasn't too thick, so he figured the dog Inuyasha, wouldn't notice he was there. Besides, Kagome's scent was quickly over coming his. He sighed.
"Kagome..." he whispered. He turned around and quickly opened the door again; making sure the glass didn't fall, he stepped outside, closing the door behind him. He looked over his shoulder at the glass door and smiled; now knowing he had twenty-four hour access to the room. The figure jumped on the edge of the railing, gripping the sides tightly before he jumped off of the four-story patio.
The figure would be known as Koga.
