Mmkay, the last chapter had to do with my all my girlfriend, Sarah and Aimee, and myself. After watching Starsky and Hutch, I thought about how funny it would be if Naraku stood there in his baboon suit saying, "Do it, do it, do it" multiple times, seeing his pupils get all big each time he said it with his little baboon face thing moving up and down. We couldn't stop laughing after I explained. But yeah, here's the next chapter!

Disclaimers: I own Inuyasha! (opposite day!)

Warnings: Your pill will cry when Stephen's gay! I mean, you will die in seven days! If you read this fic… mwahaha!!

Chapter 3: Strip Poker!

The next day! Again! Dun, dun, dun!! The girls, Inuyasha, Koga, and Miroku were engaging in a nice, wholesome game, of Texas Hold 'Em whilst Kirara, Shippo, Ginta, and Hakkaku stood and watched. Seeing's how Kasumi had forgotten to bring playing chips, they just bet on different items.

"I still don't see why you didn't want to play Strip Poker," said Miroku.

Kagome glared at him whilst Sango decided to slap him.

"No dirty thoughts, Miroku," she warned.

Miroku sighed as he rubbed the dark red handprint. "My apologies…"

Kasumi grinned. "I wanna play Strip Poker!"

Everyone stared at Kasumi strangely.

"I'm standing right here you know!" Shippo pointed out.

Kasumi's head hung low. "Aw… no fun…"

Koga, holding one hand of cards, the other grabbing around Kasumi's waist, pulled her closer to him and said, "I wish we could play that, too."

He then leaned down and kissed her cheek. Kasumi felt a little giddy inside as she giggled and slid onto his lap. They didn't care if the other could see their hand (of cards).

"Are we gonna play or what?!" Inuyasha asked; frustrated.

"Sure Inuyasha," Kagome replied.

"Oh! Before we start playing, Mom, did Hojo sign the stupid thing for the pregnancy class thing?" Kasumi asked.

Kagome's eyes widened. "Kasumi! Don't mention 'you know who' in front of your father!"

Kasumi crouched and replied, "Oh, right. Sorry, it slipped."

Inuyasha glared hard at Kagome and asked, "Who's Hojo?"

"No one," Kasumi and Kagome answered at the same time.

Inuyasha stood up with one fist in the air, letting his hand of cards fall to the ground. "Kagome, Kasumi, you two better fess up or I'll-- Wait a minute… Kagome, your scent has changed a bit…"

"I've noticed that two…" Koga pointed out, slanting his eyes at Kagome.

Kasumi stood up and sat next to her mother saying, "Knock it off. It's none of your guys' business."

"Kagome," Sango began, "are you going out with another man?"

Kagome's face flushed red. Everyone gasped. She was sleeping with this Hojo guy!

Inuyasha got a very hurt expression on his face. He decided he'd just leave. And he did. Kagome followed him and started calling out his name.

Kasumi watched and bit on her bottom lip. "I really need to learn to keep my mouth shut…"

"Don't be so hard on yourself, Kasumi," said Shippo.

Miroku concurred. "Yeah, some things just slip out. It's not your fault."

XxXxXxXx

The next day, things seemed to be back to normal. But Inuyasha had not returned. Kagome and Kasumi blamed themselves harshly. They decided to play poker again to take their minds off of Inuyasha.

"Koga! You forgot to burn it again!" Kasumi called out.

Koga blinked before remembering what burning a card meant. "Oh! Yeah… heheh, sorry!"

This time, he put the last card drawn back into the deck. He shuffled them, took the top card and slid it to the bottom, and put down the final card to make a 'river.'

Inuyasha came into the wolf den with no pants on. He had a giant leaf wrapped around his waist. Everyone stared in shock.

"Don't just stand there! Get me some pants!" he demanded.

Kagome threw her two cards to the ground and walked up to Inuyasha. "Where have you been all night? You had me worried sick!"

"Why does it matter where I've been all night?" Inuyasha asked back.

Kasumi gasped. "Oh my God! You've been sleeping with a prostitute!"

Inuyasha flinched greatly and replied, "How did you know?!"

Kasumi blinked. The room became silent. Finally she said, "Actually… I was just kidding…"

Inuyasha glanced down at Koga. "How come you're wearing a leaf too?"

"Shut up, dog breath. My skirt is being washed…" Koga replied. "I don't go off sleeping with sluts just because I feel a little jealous, unlike some people I know…"

Inuyasha felt as if he was going to kill him. He didn't even realize that Kagome had left until Shippo started calling after her.

Just then Ginta came into the den and announced, "Koga! Your skirt's done washing!"

Inuyasha ran by and took the skirt. He didn't even turn to see Koga's confused expression.

"What the heck is going on?" Sango asked.

"Is this some kind of new strip poker that Kasumi didn't mention?" Miroku asked, ignoring Sango's question.

Kasumi replied to Miroku, "I think it is."

She gave a seductive grin to Koga as she knew he had no more skirt. She did love a man in a skirt, but no skirt with nothing under was even better. Koga grinned back but knew he'd have to run after Inuyasha for his garment. So he did.

A few hours later, Inuyasha returned with Koga and Kagome. Kagome and him weren't on speaking terms.

"Uhh… Koga… sweetie… you still don't have your skirt…" Kasumi pointed out.

"I know," Koga replied. "This stupid mutt sold it so he could buy his own pair of pants."

Inuyasha snorted as he walked by and sat next to Kasumi. She scoot away from him and over to Koga. Everyone was angry at Inuyasha.

"What?!" he asked.

"Nothing…" they all replied at the same time.

Inuyasha sighed. "Look, if it's about the whole, hooker thing, I'm sorry! Kagome… I really do love you. Besides, I only paid a quick visit to Kikyo. I don't know what she did to my pants. Truly, I didn't even sleep with her…"

Kagome got even angrier. "You went and saw Kikyo?!"

"It's no different than you seeing Hokie!" Inuyasha replied.

"It's Hojo! And I'm not even in love with him!"

More and more arguing went on.

"Strip poker anyone?" Miroku asked.

Kasumi beamed a grin until everyone else replied, "NO!"

"Fine then. I bet Koga!" Kasumi cried out; shoving Koga into the pot.

Sango blinked. "You can bet people?"

"Sure!"

Koga turned around and asked, "What do you mean?! What are they going to do with me?!"

Kasumi shrugged. "Don't know don't care. But don't worry, I have a good hand."

Sango bet Miroku and Shippo. Kasumi started to worry. But! She had doubles!

"Hah! Say bye-bye to Miroku, 'cause I have doubles!" Kasumi said showing her hand.

Sango shook her head. "I wouldn't say that, Kasumi. Read 'em and weep."

She held out her hand to show that with her cards and the river, there was a Full House.

Kasumi's eyes widened. Being blunt, she just said, "Crap…"

Of course, they didn't truly bet people. It was just for laughs. But it sure did scare the heck out of the guys. Unfortunately, Inuyasha and Kagome weren't even paying attention. They just wouldn't stop arguing. Which sucks for them, huh?
