Chapter 3: Mistakes?

This can't be happening.. I've wanted this for so long.. Kagome thought as Inuyasha's lips pressed

hungrily against hers.

Kagome let herself be pulled into his kiss, and a wave of emotions took over her body. She

struggled to fight against them, and finally broke herself loose from his lips.

"Uh, I uh…sorry," Kagome stuttered as a pink flush stole over her otherwise creamy complexion.

Inuyasha's face was beet red as well, and they both sat in silence before Inuyasha spoke up.

"Well, you know.. We should probably be heading back.." he said, spitting the words out as if they

were venom. Kagome shot him a questioning look, but Inuyasha knew better than to look into her

eyes right now. Full of emotion, and probably regret, Inuyasha thought. I can't let myself be

pulled in again, I've dishonored her enough already. And with that last thought, Inuyasha

bounded through the window, and waited at the well for Kagome to come as well.

"Miroku, do you think Inuyasha apologized?" Sango asked, absentmindedly as she scrubbed

Hirakotsu down with wax.

"Knowing the hanyou as well as we do, probably not, my dear Sango," Miroku said from beside

her on the floor of the hut, his hand creeping suspiciously close to Sango's rear.

SLAP!

Sango's crimson face as she blew on her now warm hand made it apparent that Miroku's hand had

yet again, wandered to a forbidden area on Sango.

"Lecher," she mumbled as she went back to working on Hirakotsu.

Just then, a certain kitsune bounded into view.

"Sango, when is K'gome coming back? I'm sick of playing with the village children!" Shippou

whined as Miroku regained consciousness from Sango's blow.

"Probably soon, Shippou, you know how Inuyasha is," Sango said, sighing. She, too was

wondering when her sister-like friend was coming back.

"Yeah, he is such a jerk sometimes, huh?" Shippou said, giggling.

THUMP!

"INUYASHA! DO NOT THUMP SHIPPOU!" Kagome screamed from a few feet behind

Inuyasha.

"He was making fun of me! I had to defend myself," Inuyasha reasons, crossing his arms in front of

his chest. However, his reason fell short to Kagome's anger.

"Why do you always have to mess with him? He's just a little kid. Are you okay, Shippou?"

Kagome asked, in a worried tone.

"Yeah, I'm fine," Shippou said, rubbing his head where the hanyou thumped him. Then when

Kagome wasn't looking, he stuck his tongue out at Inuyasha.

"Why you little!" Inuyasha said, and lifted his hand top hump him again, However, a small hand

grabbed his wrist before it could come down. "Not again, Puppy," Kagome groaned. When it sunk

in what she had just said, her face turned a lovely shade of tomato red, and she giggled nervously,

as Inuyasha's face burnt the same color.

"Haha.. get it.. a joke.. Puppy.." Kagome said, but her shaky voice betrayed her, and she quickly

ran into the hut, Shippou in tow.

"Puppy?" Miroku said, his eyebrows raised at the obvious term of endearment.

"Drop it, monk," Inuyasha growled, his face still showing signs of embarrassment. He walked into

the hut, attempting to look calm and collected, as Sango shot Miroku a look, and they both burst

out laughing. "They are so oblivious," Sango said, and picked up Hirakotsu, and went inside.
