Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha, but I'm working on a plot to get ownership I'll just give Rumiko Takahashi chocolate and cookies.

Chapter 4: Explaining and Going Back

Previously: After they spoke those words it began to pour. "Inuyasha, I think we should start looking for the others before we get soaked." "Okay, anything you want Kagome but before we go I have a question to ask you." "Okay, Inuyasha what is it?"

Now: "W…well it's um well. Never mind." Inuyasha stammered while blushing madly. "God I thought this would be easy." He thought. "Come on Inuyasha. I want to know." A curious Kagome begged. "Okay fine Kagome I'll ask. Well w…will y…you be my m…mate?" Inuyasha whispered. "Inuyasha, can you say that one more time I couldn't hear you?" "Fine." He sighed. "KagomeHigurashiwillyoubemymate?" Inuyasha said really fast. "GRRRRRRRR! Inuyasha ask so I can actually understand you!" Kagome growled in a very pissed off tone.

"God dammit Kagome I am trying to ask you to be my mate and it's really hard and you're not making it any easier by yelling at me!" Inuyasha shot back with out realizing his words until to late. "Oh my god Inuyasha! You want me to be your mate?" "Oh shit did I say that?" Inuyasha thought. "Yes Kagome I do. Will you?" There was a long pause until Inuyasha broke the silence again. "Never mind Kagome it's okay if you don't want to be my mate. I should have never asked. I'm sorry." Inuyasha said in a hurt tone. "No, Inuyasha it's not that I'm just so happy I don't know what to say. But, of course I'll be your mate. But, first you have to explain to me what that is."

"You mean you don't know?" "Well I kind of do me and Sango talked about it a couple of times, but she never really explained. She said it's like being your wife." Kagome said unsurely. "Well actually there's more way more to it than that. Do I really have to explain?" Inuyasha said, another blush forming. "Yes Inuyasha if I'm going to say yes as in I'm absolutely sure you have to tell me what I'm getting myself into."

"Okay it's like being my wife, but there's more like number one we actually have to mate. But, in your time there's a different term for mate I just can't remember the word." "Inuyasha are you talking about sex?" "Yeah that's the word we have to have sex. And number two I have to mark you which means I have to bite you on your neck so that demons know you're taken. And which means that stupid flea bitten wolf can't touch you."

"Um Inuyasha is that it?" "Yep that's pretty much it." "Well I'm only sixteen. Do you think I'm ready for this?" Kagome asked as her face turned more scarlet than it already was if that's possible. "Kagome, I can't make that decision for you. You have to make it. If you don't want to I'll understand." Inuyasha said with his ears drooping a little.

"I love you Inuyasha. But, I need a little time to think about this though." Kagome kissed his lips for a few seconds to prove that she loves him. "Okay so Kagome let's go find the others." "Okay Inuyasha." They started walking then Inuyasha picked her up bridle style and started jumping above trees to get a better look. "There they are." he said a little disappointedly. After that he jumped down. "Inuyasha, Kagome did you guys make up?" Miroku asked with a lecherous look on his face. "Like it's any of your business monk and wipe that perverted look off your face before I do it for you." Inuyasha spat out.

"Well you two must have because you for one have Kagome still in your arms and two have her a little close there." Miroku pointed out. "Yes I agree." Sango said eyeing her two friends." Meow!" Kilala mewed in agreement. "Yeah I think so too." Shippo also agreed. "Would you all shut up! Nothing happened I just apologized!" Inuyasha yelled. "Well Inuyasha why do you still have Kagome in your arms then?" Miroku asked. "Oh shove it monk!" Inuyasha once again yelled setting Kagome down softly.

"Okay guys everyone cut it out and let's go back to the village I doubt we'll find anything out here." Kagome stated with a sigh. "I guess you're right Kagome. Let's go guys." Sango said walking up to her best friend as they started walking again. "So Kagome is Inuyasha serious that nothing happened?" Sango whispered. "Sango he's telling the truth all he did was apologize. Anyway it's getting dark I think we should set up camp." Kagome stated while thinking "Oh dang it! She suspects something. Why does she have to be smart?" "Okay Kagome I'll tell the others. Hey guys let's start setting up camp." "Okay." Everyone agreed together.

"I'll go get some water." Inuyasha stated and darted off into the woods. "We already have water here. He must have forgot." Kagome sighed. "I wonder why he took off so fast?" Miroku wondered out loud. "I don't know." Kagome responded but thought, "I know why. He's probably embarrassed out of his mind. Poor guy."

With Inuyasha: "Why did those idiots have to jump to conclusions? Damn I need a break from all this. I'll go back to camp later, but for now I'm going to get that water and then sit by that river." With that Inuyasha quickly filled the bucket with water, then layed his head down, and looked at the darkening sky.

Inuyasha thinks: I love Kagome so much I hope, really hope that she'll say yes. But, then again why would she want to be the mate of a worthless half-breed mutt like me? She probably just said she loves me out of pity. I'm so pathetic. With that last thought Inuyasha fell into a deep sleep with a picture of Kagome in his mind.

2 hours later back with the gang: "I'm getting kind of worried you guys. Inuyasha's not back yet. And usually when I make ramen he'll smell it and be here in a flash." Kagome said. "Yes true. Should we go look for him?" Sango asked. "No, let's just wait a little longer and then if he doesn't show up we can." Kagome answered.

Back with Inuyasha: Inuyasha stretched and looked at the sky. "Oh shit I must have fallen asleep. It's dark out. Damn I better get back. If Kagome's worried which I doubt she'll kill me." With that Inuyasha grabbed the water and ran off.
