She stood on the sidewalk on a sunny day. Wind blew through her hair. She looked on the crosswalk on the road. She saw a couple. The man had his hands laced with the girl's fingers. They were running and laughing together. Looked like they were having fun.
She kept on walking. She started to walk through a park when she looked at a couple sitting on the bench. The man's hand was around the girl's waist and she was resting her head on his shoulder. They nuzzled in each other's embrace. Suddenly, it started to rain. She ran through the park trying to seek cover. Everyone was walking with his/her boyfriend/girlfriend under once umbrella.
She ran along the sidewalk, splashing in the puddles as she ran. She didn't know where she was, so the best she could do was to find shelter in a small cave. She went inside the cave and sat down. She tilted her head back against the wall of the rock.
"Where am I? Why is everyone in couples except for me? Where is everyone? I'm so…alone." The girl started to cry. She then saw a faded vision in front of her.
"Ka-Kakaru?" She managed to choke out.
"How dare you ever believe I would betray you Nintai. I would never leave you. I am coming back for you. I will be with you. Forever and always." He took his hand and grabbed her chin. He softly kissed her and faded away.
"WAIT, KAKARU, WHERE ARE YOU? WHERE DID YOU GO? I WANT YOU TO COME BACK FOR ME NOW! KAKARUUUUUUUUUU!"
Nintai awoke with a start.
She quickly sat up, breathing heavily, sweat running down her face. She looked around her. She looked at Kagome and Inuyasha sleeping soundly together, and then to her brother spread out on the floor, mouth wide open and drooling.
"Kodak moment…" she softly whispered. She took out the camera she used earlier and snapped a shot of Kagome and Inuyasha, and then one of Ikemen.
She put the camera down and stood up. She walked down to her room in the basement and took a quick glance in the mirror, and noticed her ears were sticking out of her hair in a bun. She quickly tucked them back in her hair. She could get away with her brother not noticing her claws, but her ears, she didn't think he would be so stupid as not to notice those.
She needed to think. She opened the window and jumped out onto the tall roof of the house.
"Wow when I was human it would take me 5 minutes to climb up to the roof. Being a hanyou is so much easier." She layed down on the flat roof and looked up at the stars. She always liked to look at the stars and sky. They were so mysterious. She made a little smile to herself.
"I have faith in you Kakaru." She silently said as she dozed off to sleep on the roof.
Morning
Kagome slowly opened her eyes. She looked to the side of her and Saw Inuyasha's sleeping face. They had both shifted around during the night. Inuyasha had layed down next to kagome and wrapped her in his arms without knowing.
'It's so…comfortable in Inuyasha's arms. Oh well, better enjoy it while I can.' Kagome closed her eyes and would rest until everyone else had awoken. She just wondered what Inuyasha's reaction would be.
7 Minutes Later
Ikemen slowly awoke. He stretched his arms out and looked at the time.
'Wow 11:01…Nintai usually doesn't sleep this late. And Inuyasha and Kagome are still asleep…in eahchother's arms. I wonder why they are all so tired…where's Nintai? Probably went to her room to sleep….I might as well go pick up some breakfast'
Ikemen walked out to his red thunderbird imported from America and drove off.
15 Minutes Later
Nintai opened her eyes to see the bright sun shining in her eyes. She slowly sat up and rubbed her eyes. She looked around and then jumped down off the rood and climbed back into her window. She looked into her mirror and fixed her hair so her ears wouldn't stick out and walked upstairs. She peeked into the TV room where everyone fell asleep.
'Ikemen isn't here…probably went to get breakfast. Oh my kami…look at Inuyasha and Kagome! They are soooo cute in eachother's arms like that…uh oh Inuyasha is stirring. I think he's waking up…'
Inu's P.O.V
I started to stir, but I felt someone in my arms. I opened my eyes and saw-Kagome? This isn't how we fell asleep last night…oh no what is she going to think when she wakes up? I better get her in a different bed so she won't be freaked out…
End of P.O.V
Inuyasha picked Kagome up bridal style. He looked at Nintai who was about to talk but quickly shushed her so she wouldn't wake Kagome up. But Kagome was already half-asleep. She slowly opened her brown eyes to meet with amber ones.
"Inu-Yasha?" She said sleepily.
"Uh..Kagome…" he said nervously. But she just closed her eyes and snuggled back into his warm body. Inuyasha blushed. He looked at Nintai, who just grinned and shrugged. What else could he do? He sat down on the couch with a sleeping Kagome in his hands. Nintai finally decided to talk.
"So…Inuyasha….looked liked you and Kagome got pretty cozy last night." She said as she winked at Inuyasha.
"Stop thinking like that perverted hentai! Besides, Kagome is my really good friend, I just wanted her to be comfortable." Inuyasha said defensivly.
"Don't worry Inuyasha, I saw what happened last night. It was sweet. And are you sure she's just a friend…"
"We've talked about this before. I don't need to say it again."
"Whatever I understand." Nintai said annoyingly. Kagome slowly opened her eyes again, this time wide awake.
"Inuyasha? AH!" she jumped and landed on the floor. Nintai ran over to her and looked at her blushing face.
"Goooooooooood morning beautiful!" she said cheerfully.
"Good morning yourself." She said groggily.
"Hey where's Ikemen?" asked Inuyasha
"He went to get us some breakfast. Hope you guys like pancakes."
"I know I do! And I'm sure Inuyasha will too!" Said Kagome.
"Let's go into the kitchen. I'll get you guys some milk while you're waiting."
They all walked into the kitchen and sat on the stools. Nintai poured milk in a glass for Kagome and Inuyasha and then sat with them.
"So when should we head back to the fuedel era today? I had a good nights sleep and I'm ready to train."
"We should leave right after breakfast. As soon as possible." Said Inuyasha.
"Sounds good to me, but I need to get supplies before we head back."
"Me too. I'll go get those after breakfast." Said Nintai.
"And breakfast has arrived!" came a voice from the entrance and heavy sweet smell from the kitchen entrance.
"MMMMM SMELLS GREAT SERVE US IKEMEN!" said an exited Nintai.
"Hold your horses Nintai, it'll get to you soon."
"HURRY!" Ikemen grinned. He, oh so slowly, served the pancakes and eggs to everyone. As soon as Nintai got them, she smothered them in syrup and butter and chowed down, same with Kagome. Inuyasha first took a small bight, and them gulped up the whole thing down. After everyone was done, they chugged down some orange juice.
"Ah, that was great." Sighed a full Kagome.
"I agree." Said Nintai. She stood stood up.
"Well I'm going to go pack my stuff I'll be back in a few minutes, you can come if you want to Kagome."
"OK, coming!" said Kagome. They both went downstairs to Nintai's room. Nintai started throwing in random things; t-shirts, baggy pants, her Tae Kwon Do uniform, her training sword, he shampoo, conditioner, brush…etc…
"So, Kagome, looks like you got pretty comfy with Inuyasha last night." Kagome blushed deeply and looked at the floor.
"It's OK, it was cute, I got a cute snapshot of it too! I can't believe he apologized to you! That was so sweet!"
"YOU SPIED ON US!"
"Heh, how could I resist. It was so sweet, kind of reminded me of Kakaru…anyway besides the point lets get going." Nintai said as she quickly changed the subject. Her bag was almost as full as Kagome's yellow bag. She hauled it upstairs and both the girls saw Inuyasha chasing Ikemen.
"YOU SPIED ON US YOU LITTLE…!" Inuyasha stopped dead in his tracks when he saw the girls. Ikemen slowly walked towards the door.
"Uh well I gotta go sis, back to college, nice meeting you Kagome, Inuyasha, bye!" he ran out the door and the tires screeched as he backed out of the driveway. Inuyasha, Kagome, and Nintai stood there starring at the door.
"Well lets get going!" said Kagome. She rode on Inuyasha's back because Nintai was carrying her back pack. They got to Kagome's house.
"Be back in a second!" Kagome yelled as she ran up her stairs to her room. Just then, Buyo walked by Inuyasha and Nintai. They both looked at each other and grinned before they started to torment the cat.
4 Minutes Later
"OK I'm ready to….Oh Kami INUYASHA SIT! AND NINTAI…I DON'T KNOW!" Kagome yelled. Buyo's tail was in his fangs, and Nintai was pulling on the poor cat's paws. Inuyasha fell down to the grown and Buto scratched Nintai and scurried away.
"Ow!" Nintai shook her hand like a puppy.
"You deserved it! Now get up both of you and let's go before I get even more angry!" Kagome and Inuyasha slowly got up, scared of Kagome, and followed her out to the well. They jumped down.
