July 14th 2004: Oh my gosh! Thank you guys for reviewing, it really made my day, anyway, I took into deep thought about this chapter. I say this story of mine is coming along very nicely. Well people keep reviewing, it really makes me happy, and enjoy this chapter!

' Ahhh what a nice scent' InuYasha thought to himself. He was thinking to himself how nice Kagome's scent was, and though he said he couldn't stand her scent, he loved it so much. It was about 7:00 am, this when Kagome woke up, now knowing that you really have to WAKE UP before you really know whats really going on. She felt herself being craddled by someone, at first she thought she was still dreaming, because she was being craddled by InuYasha. But when she moved, she relized that she wasn't dreaming!!!! InuYasha, surprisingly, still fast asleep, didn't relize what he was doing. But amazingly Kagome stayed where she was, and savored the moment, though it would be a rude awakening to InuYasha, maybe....knowing how he handles things like this.

Kagome enjoyed and savored that moment, and pretending to sleep, so that if InuYasha was to wake up, it would seem that he was the first one to wake. While she was in that moment, she thought to herself how when she first met InuYasha, he was rude and stubborn, especially stubborn, he was really good at that! Even though he still is rough around the edges, he's more caring and she thought, and I think he trusts me now. Kagome knew that him trusting her was very good indication that he was opening up more, because the only other person who he had put his trust in, was Kikyou, and even though InuYasha now knows that it was a demon known by the name of Naraku that made Kikyou betray him, and vice versa for Kikyou. Thats why he doesn't want to trust people is because he was betrayed, and how is past was. Kagome sighed at the thought of Kikyou, "why does she try to kill me? I don't understand', Kagome thought to herself. She knew if she thought anymore about it she would start to become sad, or worse, cry. Because though InuYasha didn't know it, she loved him, but how can it ever be, Kikyou still roams this earth, even if among the living-dead, so naturally InuYasha would chose Kikyou.

But what Kagome didn't know was, that the relationship between InuYasha and her was, well..bigger than either of them could imagine. InuYasha who protects Kagome, and cares for her, and that Kagome who cares for InuYasha, being supportive, and not giving up on him. Not that InuYasha and Kikyou didn't have that sort of thing, but Kagome has repaired InuYasha's heart in more ways than one.

Kagome peeked one eye open to look at her clock, it was 7:15 am, she knew this moment was not going to last very long, because knowing InuYasha he'll be waking up soon. She said, "Oh InuYasha" in a whisper. Kagome heard InuYasha's ears "tweaking", knowing that he was waking up. 'Oh god!! InuYasha is going to freek out!! Okay Kagome, heres the plan just pretend to be asleep' she thought to herself hoping that InuYasha didn't relized that she could have moved at any moment, but didn't...hinting that something was going on!

Kagome heard a loud yawn, obviously InuYasha really had to be awake before he got the big picture of what is going on here. Suddenly, Kagome felt this huge jerk, she knew that InuYasha was now WIDE AWAKE!

"WHAT IS GOING ON HERE!?" InuYasha said very loudly.

Kagome pretending to be asleep, but finally sat up, and looked into his eyes, with sorrow. All InuYasha did was stare back, but before there could be any talking between them Sota came in to tell Kagome it was time to get up and that breakfast was ready. ' Phew! thank god breakfast is ready!' but sooner or later her and InuYasha would have to talk about what happend, but as long as it wasn't in that moment, she'd be fine with it.

Kagome walked down the stairs to the kitchen, InuYasha still dazed at what happened just then, but after a few minutes he followed Kagome to the kitchen. While InuYasha was sitting there dazzed, he tought ' What the hell happened?! Was she actually in my arms, and didn't shudder? Does she have feelings for me, that I never sensed, I mean...I might love her, but I could never tell her.' Meanwhile downstairs, Kagome's mom greeted Kagome, Kagome didn't say anything, but her mother knew it had to do with InuYasha.

"Kagome, where's InuYasha?" Sota asked eagerly.

Kagome was out of it, she didn't hear him, so Sota asked again.

"Kagome, where's InuYasha?" repeated Sota.

"Here I am" InuYasha walking in looking a cool, like nothing had happened, he was good at covering his emotions, but not good enough for Kagome.

" Good morning you two", Kagome's mom said to Kagome and InuYasha.

All of them sat down together and ate breakfast, with silence. Until Kagome's mom pipes up about how Hojo has asked Kagome to a movie today, and he's coming by around 11:30.

"WHAT?!! MOM, why didn't you tell me?!" Kagome said all flustered.

"Sorry, you've been gone in the fedaul era, but I thought would be okay to say yes, besides you said you'd be back before Saturday" Kagome's mom said.

sweat trop ' Oh boy! InuYasha is relly going to get a kick out of Hojo. Uh oh, InuYasha can't be seen because of his ears. sigh what am I going to do?' she thought stressfully. "Oh, alright" said Kagome. During this whole "situation" InuYasha was thinking ' who is this Hojo person?'

Until Hojo came by Kagome decided to help around the shrine, in amazment InuYasha was willing to help too. Something was going on, he never would have helped out....maybe because of what happened. Sigh I just can't understand him sometime. While they were helping around the shrine, Kagome decided to put a bandana on InuYasha, so if anyone were to come out of now where, they wouldn't have any idea of what InuYasha was. Good thing too, because Kagome's friends came by. Good thing she was cleaing and stuff, or her friends would want every detail about whats been going on with her so call "boyfriend", Kagome shooed them out quickly because of the presense of InuYasha.

It was 11 o'clock Kagome thought she'd better get ready, and emotional ready for InuYasha's reaction to Hojo. Kagome put on a yellow dress for the outing with Hojo. She came downstairs, where InuYasha was lying around, he sat up and looked at her, but before either one of them could say anything, Kagome's mom called for Kagome. Hojo was at the front door.

" Well hello Kagome, I hope your feeling good enough to go to the movies with me" Hojo said.

" Yeah, sure." Kagome really had nothing to say.

' Oh boy, this is going to be a long day' Kagome thought to herself. "Well we better be on our way then huh Hojo?"

" Lets go!" he said cheerfully.

InuYasha was already in a tree before Kagome and Hojo had made it outside, he watched the two intentfully. Espcially this "Hojo" fellow, he didin't know why Kagome liked him. While Kagome and Hojo were walking to the movies, Kagome couldn't help sensing that she was being followed, she kept hearing this "swoosh" sound coming from the trees. InuYasha would have to be sneaky on spying on Kagome, or trouble would come to term. InuYasha hoped from tree to tree, now more focused on Kagome, thinking about the whole situation this morning.
