A Dog's Life By: Ryngrl5

Chapter 3

Kagome sighed with relief when she saw the time. She only had 15 more minutes to go! 'I can't wait to get home!' Kagome thought, glaring at the evil clock that seemed to be going backwards.

CLACK CLACK

"Welcome to McDonalds, how may I help you?" Kagome asked without looking up.

"I want to know if you'll be my women." Kouga asked.

"Kouga, what are you doing here?" Kagome asked, startled.

"I came here so that bastard wouldn't interrupt us." Kouga said, grinning at her. "Now you can answer my question without dog-turd getting in the way."

Kagome was livid. 'How dare he call Inuyasha names! He doesn't even know Inuyasha!' she thought, ready to kill him. Kouga though did not get the fact that she was angry and continued to saw all this shit about Inuyasha.

"Kouga, SHUT UP!" Kagome yelled, startling him. "I don't want to go out with you, so don't you ever talk to me again! Never say anything bad about Inuyasha to me either, he's a better person then you!"

Kouga just stood there with his mouth hanging open. "Well, my shifts over, bye!" Kagome ground out, leaving Kouga behind.

Getting into her car Kagome tried not to kill the steering wheel. 'How dare he sat that about Inuyasha? That was definitely not called for! But I do wonder where he got dog-turd.....'

She was till muttering death threats toward Kouga when she walked into her house. The second after she got into her house a white furball had tackled her to the ground. "Well it's nice to see you Inuyasha!" Kagome laughed. "Kouga's a jerk! He came in to corner me when he knew Inuyasha wouldn't be there! Then he thought I would go out with him and he was calling Inuyasha names! I sorta blew up at him." Kagome ranted, still angry. "Well at least I won't see him unti the day after tomorrow because Inuyasha and I blew up the science lab. That was fun."

Inuyasha barked at that and Kagome could have sworn she heard him growl every time she said Kouga. She sighed and got up. She quickly got ready for bed. Climbing into bed she felt Inuyasha climb on next to her. "Good nght Inuyasha. "Kagome muttered. Her only answer was a bark.

Kagome slowly drifted toward conciseness, her mind slightly foggy from sleep. She glanced over at the digital clock next to her bed and wondered why she was awake at 2:27 a.m. as her mind started to clear she wondered what the pressure around her waist was. 'It feels like an arm....OMG!' he thought. She slowly turned around to see someone lying next to her. "AH!" she screamed, trying to get away. Her attempts got her a ruff landing on the floor and a sore butt.

"Huh?" The bundle asked.

Kagome jumped up and turned on the light. She gaped at the boy infront of her and started to turn red from anger. "INUYASHA! What are you doing here? You scared me half to death!" Kagome yelled.

Inuyasha lifted up his head and groggily looked around. "To sleepy, answer questions in morning." he muttered.

"Fine, but I'm sleeping down here." Kagome huffed. She got a pillow and lay down on the floor.

"Oh just get up here. You'll just complain your back hurts in the morning. Besides, it's cold." Inuyasha said, pulling her back onto the bed. He put his arm around her waist and pulled the blanket over them both. "See now you won't be cold." He whispered in her ear. Kagome just nodded and within minutes they were both asleep.

Kagome lay in bed trying not to wake up Inuyasha. She had been awake for almost an hour, but she still didn't want to move. She sighed and decided to turn around and see if he was really asleep. She turned in his arms and smiled. He was fast asleep and looked so innocent. She glanced up at his head when she saw something move. 'He has dog ears. Why does he have dog ears? Oh well, I'll ask him when he wakes up.' Kagome thought, snuggling closer to him.

Unknown to Kagome, Inuyasha was also awake. He had been for a long time, but decided to pretend he was sleeping. He like the calm feeling she gave him. When she turned around it took all of his strength not to blush. He could tell she was looking at him and decided to relax. She wouldn't have able to see his hears, he did have the concealment spell still running. 'I wonder how I'm going to explain this to her. She is definitely going to want an explanation.'

"Inuyasha, are you awake?" Kagome whispered.

Inuyasha opened one eye and nodded. 'Wonder what she'll do.' He thought.

"Why are you here? I don't even know how you got in my house, no my room, no my bed! I remember locking the doors and windows!" Kagome asked, still whispering. "And why do you have dog ears?"

Inuyasha's eyes got wide. "You c-can see them?"

"Of course I can, I just want to know why I didn't see them before, and HOW THE HELL YOU GOT INTO MY HOUSE!" Kagome yelled. Inuyasha winced and flattened his ears against his head. Kagome was instantly sorry and reached up to pet his ears. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell."

"It's ok, my ears are just very sensitive to noise." Inuyasha said, smiling slightly. "Ok, I guess I should tell you why I'm here." At Kagome's nod he continued. "Well a couple days ago I got into a fight with my older half- brother Shessomaru. We got a little out of hand and I got kicked out and hurt. Well I am a half-demon and my body reverted to its simplest form. That happens to be a dog. I was lying in an alley, waiting for my wounds to heal when this girl came and took me home. She bandaged me up and tried to make me comfortable. The next day I was almost healed so I decided that I would go to school and protect that girl that helped me. Then she came up with the perfect plan to blow up the science lab. The rest of the day I played video games with her. Then I went back to her house as fast as I could and transformed into a dog. She went to work, came back, and we went to bed. Next thing I know I'm waking up to her yelling at me."

"Well that explains a lot. So you're a half-demon? I thought demons concealed themselves." Kagome said.

"Wait, you know about demons?" Inuyasha asked.

"My family has a history of being strong Miko's. my grandfather told me all about demons. I never really believed him until now." Kagome told him, smiling up at him.

"Well that explains why you can see my ears, it must be your Miko blood." Inuyasha explained.

Kagome nodded and closed her eyes, trying to process everthing that had just happened. She leaned her head on his shoulder and considered how she should respond to this. "will your brother let you back in his apartment?" she asked.

"No, we had a pretty bad fight, why?" Inuyasha asked, confused.

Kagome sighed and nodded. "Ok, then you can stay here. I don't have anyone else living here and you need somewhere to stay."

Inuyasha stared at her like she was crazy. "You want me to stay her, even after finding out about me being a half-demon?"

"Yup, don't worry about it. I'm lonely staying all alone. Now we can both have someone to live with." Kagome smiled and looked him straight in the eyes. "Besides, I like your doggie ears, they're cute."

Before Inuyasha could say anything the phone started to ring, so Kagome started to get up. Before she could get off the bed she was pulled back by two strong arms. "Well, don't you want my answer?" He asked.
