Wow! I got 2 reviews wooh-hoo! Okay before I get any further into the story , I sadly enough gain my humble knowledge of Inuyasha by the DVDs I get from my local Suncoast store. So far I'm up to episode 27. But I also found adult swim on TV to help. So if any of my attempts at these people seem OOC sorry.

Cold -heritage: Thanks, I'll try to keep my muse on that hamster wheel of hers!

Yun Fei: Yep you got it. I don't know if I will include Inuyasha's POV. Maybe I should my female friends say I have a very Masculine attitude when it comes to relationships so maybe if I do it will be more believe. Let's see what the fates have for us.

"Stay here with me Kagome."

With and odd sense of déjà vu she heard Kouga's words kept running through her mind. Why were they so loud? She wanted to deny it that she took anything of a personal nature seriously from him. She wasn't supposed to like him more than a friend. An annoying one at that. They hadn't encountered the wolf prince or any of his pack in quite some time, so why was she daydreaming about him. Wasn't she supposed to be all hung up on Inuyasha? IF that was the case, why did she hear Kouga's voice whispering those words over and over in her mind?

"Oiy! Are you listening to me? I'm talking to you stupid!" With a barely suppressed sigh and a fake smile plastered on her face, she turned to face the owner of that particular voice. She didn't realize her eyes still held a glassy sheen in them. That she hadn't heard a single word he had said to her could have been played off. If her glassy eyes hadn't given her away. "Yes Inuyasha."

He looked at her oddly for a moment before slightly narrowing his own eyes.

She's ignoring me.

A low growl began in the back of his throat, but he caught it and suppressed it before any of them could hear it. "Hello! Is anyone alive in that head of yours! I said have you sensed any jewel shards recently? I don't want to keep traveling in this area if there's no shards here."

He saw her shoulders tense up for a moment and he instinctively prepared himself for another round of Sit the hanyo. But when she did nothing more than shake her head he knew. He KNEW. She was pulling away. Slowly but surely it was happening. At any other time over their shared past, she would have SAT him until even his hair hurt if he tried to move. Now, all the response he could get is a careless wave of her hand or a shake of her head. Irritating him to no end. Anger began to pump adrenaline through his veins and the need to fight with her was growing stronger with every beat of his heart. '

What the hell is going on here? When did she start acting so damn strange? What the fuck happened to her temper, where did it go?

With each thought he had his need to confront her grew until he could hold his tongue no more.

"Well?! What the fuck does that mean?" gesturing to her head. " Is that a 'No, Inuyasha, there aren't any shards near here.' Or is that 'I don't know and I don't care!" During his little outburst the party had stopped walking. Miroku and Sango looked to one another briefly before turning their attention both to Kagome. Shippo, who had been riding on Kagome's shoulders, patted her cheek briefly before jumping down and going to where Miroku and Sango were waiting. Kagome did an about face and took small controlled steps towards Inuyasha.

Deliberately invading his personal space she stepped up to him until she could feel his breath hot on her cheeks. Ignoring his own instincts to lash out at her for challenging him he held his place, refusing to back down or take any steps back. Taking in a deep breath of her own she lifted her face to his and looked him straight in the eyes. "Uh Kagome, could you back up a bit?" Inuyasha half croaked out. He hadn't expected his voice to come out sounding that weak but she had make him nervous being so close. Not giving up any of her recently conquered territory she softly said, "Inuyasha." He looked back down to her and finally realized this calm façade she was giving him was the eye of the storm. Speaking of eyes, hers were blazing with so much anger that the brown began to look black and the small lighter streaks within them glowed with a gold to match his own. Time seemed to stop for a brief moment and all he could think was 'So beautiful' as he continued to look into her eyes.

"It means no Inuyasha there are no shards that I can sense nearby. And since you seem to want to get some kind of reaction out of me here you go…"

taking three big quick steps back she roared out

"SIT! SIT! SIT! SIT!".

The rosary beads around his neck flashed heat to him as he felt the spell begin to shape. Half a heartbeat later gravity around him warped and he felt the slightly nauseating feel of free falling as his body came into painful contact with the ground. Not once but thrice more. The only thing he could be marginally grateful for was that the nausea didn't hit him with the other three sits she gave him. The feel of his body crushing into the earth was all he felt. Sadistically enough he wanted to laugh. Laugh out loud if his lungs could pull enough air in long enough to let him. Because even though he lay there prone and in pain , he did what he meant to accomplish. She wasn't ignoring him anymore. He managed to pull her back to him the only way he knew to be effective no matter the situation.

Doing something slightly out of character Kagome bent her knees and leaned into the crater that was Inuyasha. Trying to banish the feelings of guilt that had begun to surface, she gathered her quickly diminishing anger. With as much force she could muster she practically spat at him. " I would appreciate it Inuyasha, if you would try and think before you open your mouth. Now, I'm going to explain this to you since you obviously seemed to be clueless, I was thinking. Just because I'm thinking does not mean that I would be able to ignore the pull of a jewel shard if it was near here. So, you don't have to worry, if one was near you'll be the first to know. After me of course." By the time she finished her little speech guilt was fighting its way to the surface. "I need to go home."

The urge to laugh hit him once again. She won't be pulling away any further now.
