Disclaimer: Ok, I own: pj's, slippers, and a pencil...but no Inuyasha (pouts).

Ok, got another chapter for whoever out there is reading this. A little bit more humor this time guys. I think last time I gotta bit 'drama-y' on you. But if you have romance, you have drama. The two kinda go hand in hand. Anyways, enough babbling, I'll save that for the end!

Chapter 7-Slip Up Of Words

Kagome looked from her best friend, to the cook, and finally to the equally wordless half-demon sitting on the bed. He could read her expression clearly. 'What are we gonna do?' He shook his head and slightly shrugged.

"Uh...hi guys. What's up?" Kagome said to her friends that she thought were left in the kitchen.

"Well, Kagome. Ya see we were worried about you. I mean, you didn't say much to us, and we thought that maybe Inuyasha would know something." Sango admitted to her friend. "And I know that you probably don't like that I'm going to him first and not you, but...I was scared that something was really wrong."

Kagome looked at her friend. "Well, I am a bit upset that you didn't wait for me to tell you what happened."

"You were going to TELL her?" Inuyasha yelled, jumping up in the process.

Kagome looked at him, a bit surprised at the outburst. "Well, yea. Sango's my best friend. I tell her everything."

Miroku had a goofy smile on his face. "So...What exactly DID happen between you two? It has to be something good, or Inuyasha wouldn't get so worked up over someone else finding out."

"NONE OF YOUR BUSINESS!" Kagome and Inuyasha yelled at the cook in unison.

"Oh, so now I'm the only one that's not gonna know?" He said with a mixture of sarcasm and humor in his voice. His violet eyes danced in amusement. "I bet you two were having some kinda love affair, and you didn't want anyone to find out; because then both of you would be looked down upon. How right am I?" He said, hoping to set some kind of spark off.

"An affair? I wouldn't say that...it was more of a-"Inuyasha started, but never finished thanks to a glare that could kill from Kagome.

"It was nothing of the sort!" She said more to Inuyasha than to Miroku.

"Yea, you're right. We didn't even do anything." Inuyasha thought out loud.

"But if you never did anything, why did you start to compare it to an affair?" Miroku asked.

"Well, it's not that it was an affair!" Inuyasha yelled.

"Then what would you call it?" The cook teased.

"It was a secret you moron! Meaning you aren't supposed to know!"

"So there was something! And you had to end it!"

Kagome chimed in. "IT never started! So there was nothing!"

Sango gasped. "So there was going to be something? I knew you liked him!" She said with a giggle.

Kagome blushed. "NO! You've got it wrong!"

"Then tell us so we don't assume the worst." Miroku said. He and Sango were determined to find out what happened between the two. Of course, they were only doing this out of concern for their friend. It had nothing to do with how utterly amusing they were trying to hide it (cough cough).

"It...it was nothing." Inuyasha said, throwing his head up in defiance.

"Then why get so defensive about it?" Miroku asked with an eyebrow raised.

"..." Inuyasha looked at his friend. 'Grr...he's right. Now what?'

"Well...it's just...I don't want you to think something happened. I mean, it's not like I upset her on purpose."

"So...you did upset her?" Sango asked, still trying to figure it all out.

Inuyasha cringed.

"Uhh...Umm...Hmph!" Was his response.

Sango walked over to the boy and grabbed his white ear that sat twitching on top of his head. "What...did...you...do...to...her?" She asked very slowly, flames roaring behind her.

"It was an accident! I don't even know what I did!" He said defensively.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome squealed.

"HA!" Miroku yelled. "So it WAS your fault!" He put his hands on his hips triumphantly.

"It was not MY fault!"

"Then whose fault was it?" Miroku asked.

"No one's, ok?" His master responded.

"Ok, so whatever happened wasn't anyone's fault?" Miroku asked.

"What happened, was no one's fault. We just realized that we-"

"Shut-up Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled.

"So we were right. Something did happen." Sango concluded.

"..." Kagome glared at Inuyasha, whose mouth was hung open like he wanted to say something, but nothing came out.

"Thanks a lot." Kagome directed at the half-demon sarcastically.

"This isn't my fault ya know," he started, "If you hadn't come in, we wouldn't even be in this predicament."

"So now you're blaming it on me?" Kagome asked.

"I guess I am. Also, if you hadn't gone and told them something happened-"

"I didn't say anything!" Kagome yelled in defense.

"Ya must have done something, or they wouldn't even be in here bugging us, now would they!" He yelled back.

"Man, you guys go from screaming, to hugging, to crying, to yelling. Will y'all make up your minds already?" A fourth voice drew their attention to the doorway where Shippo and Rin stood.

"S-Shippo?" Kagome asked in surprise. 'He saw us? Dear gods!' Her insides twisted and turned, 'Now Miroku and Sango will have even more questions. Questions that I really don't wanna answer. I wish I could just...disappear or something along that line.' She looked over at Inuyasha, who had an expression on his face that was very similar to hers. 'That little brat,' he thought, 'opening his big mouth like that!'

Sango and Miroku's gaze drifted from the fox-child in the doorway, to the couple behind them. Sango raised an eyebrow at her friend. Miroku's mouth turned upward into a devilish grin.

"I knew you two were doing something behind our backs." He said, amused at the slight blush that crossed both their faces.

"We weren't doing anything behind your back! It didn't get THAT far." Inuyasha spat, sticking his nose up in the air shortly after.

Kagome jerked her head at him, her eyes open wide. 'Did he actually just say that?'

"Pardon?" (I know...it's French. So let's just play pretend, ok?) She asked coldly. "It never got...THAT...far?" She questioned. "And just what is THAT supposed to mean?"

"Well...the way he meant it was...well..." Inuyasha stamered.

"I know what he meant, I'm asking what you meant." She said, inching closer to him.

He was slowly backing away, fearing that she would explode in his face (which looked like something she was about to do). "Well, all we did was hug, it wasn't anything else." That comment got everone's attention, so they listened more carefully.

"Yea, but you said it didn't get THAT far. So, were you indicating that it could have turned into the type of relationship that Miroku was talking about?"

He kept inching backwards. "Well, yea...I mean, no...It's just..." He bumped into the wall. 'Shit.'

She kept walking until she was right in front of him. One of her eyebrows was raised in anticipation for his response. The others looked on in amusement. Miroku leaned over to Sango and whispered, "This is interesting." She held back a giggle with her hand and responded, "Yea, you're right. I'm glad we did this!"

"Inuyasha, this isn't that hard of a question to answer." Kagome calmly said. 'I want to know what he meant!' She thought. 'Plus this is fun! He's so cute when he's embarrassed!' A slight grin appeared on her lips. She tried to hold it back, but her master caught sight of it.

"You..." His eyes narrowed, "you're doing this on purpose, aren't you?"

Kagome let her giggle escape. "Yes! I am, but you're too funny!"

He glared at her and his ears twitched slightly in irritation. This caused her to laugh even harder. Which made him even more aggravated than he already was. "It's...not...funny." He growled.

She stopped for a moment to look at him, her eyes teary from laughing so hard. She caught her breath and said, "Inuyasha, you may not think it's funny, but everyone else does. You just got so red in the face, I couldn't help but keep asking." She paused for a moment. "Which brings me back to that. What did you mean when you said...ya know...what you said?"

Sango and Miroku came up behind her to hear what he had to say to that.

"Later," he started, "I'll tell you...LATER!" Putting emphasis on the word and eyeing the two standing behind her.

'He's actually going to tell me?' Kagome thought. She then sighed. "Ok, tell me later." She turned to her friends, "Let's go, we have stuff to do." They left the room, and she glanced back at her master and smiled. He returned it; and with that, she shut the door.

Whew...Ok. Done. That took a few days. I mean, I kept getting on the computer, then I had to get off. Then I'd get on again, and have to get off. And every time I got on, I'd have to read over what I wrote the previous day so that I could racap...which takes a bit of time. It would be alot easier if I just...stayed home all day, instead of going to school. (sigh) when will this madness end? Oh, and please review! You have no idea how good it makes me feel! And I wanna thank those who are reading this. I know for sure I have two good friends who are. They've both tried to leave a review, but it wasn't working for them (the same thing's happened to me before). EVEN STILL...I wanna thank y'all...I wuv yooh!!!
