Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha! Happy?
Oh! And thatnk you too my reviewers! Your the reason I finished the chapter! (being threatened by one of them plus my friends helped too...)
I re-posted this one because now it doesn't have any spelling mistakes hopefully!
Recap:
Sango and Kagome were running after Inuyasha. Westwood was only 3 streets away, and with his demon powers, he was most likely already there. They arrived outside Kouga's house just in time to see Inuyasha dragging a struggling Kouga outside.
"Is this the guy?" Inuyasha demanded.
Kagome merely nodded, too afraid too speak.
"Good." was all he said before he threw him into a nearby tree.

Chapter 3 - Inuyasha's Feelings
Kouga stood up slowly. He was dizzy, and his back was killing him. Then he remembered why, and faced the strange guy who had thrown him into the tree.
"What the hell was that for?" Kouga demanded.
"That was but a taste, you bastard." Inuyasha growled.
"What the hell are you talking ab--?" Kouga started, then caught sight of Sango and Kagome. Quick as a flash, thanks to the jewel shards in his legs, he ran over and had an extremely terrified Kagome by the throat, cutting off her air.
"Why you insolent wench. You now have some mutt to protect you? Well just you wait, I'll get rid of him, then I'll deal with you." he dropped Kagome and turned only to get a face full of claws.
Kouga yelled out and covered his face.
"You'll pay for that you hanyou!" yelled Kouga. He had smelt that Inuyasha was only a half-demon.
"I'd like to see you try." was Inuyasha's smug reply. He readied himself for anything. Well, almost.
Kouga then spun around and grabbed Kagome, Inuyasha's only weakness. He then placed Kagome infront of him, as a shield. Kagome's feet dangled helplessly off the ground, as Kouga had her by the back of the shirt. Inuyasha had lunged at Kouga the moment he had grabbed Kagome, but he now stopped dead in his tracks. Kouga smirked.
"Whats the matter, half-breed? Oh, wait, I forgot. You like this whore." he said, shaking Kagome's terrified form a little. Kouga smiled when Inuyasha let a deep growl escape from his throat. Kouga moved his mouth to Kagome's bare arm, and put his fangs over top the perfect, smooth skin. He then bit, hard, breaking then skin easily. He bit all the way down to the bone as Kagome screamed at the top of her lungs, then passed out from fear, exaustion and pain. Kouga threw her too the side.
Inuyasha attack Kouga mercilessly, clawing, biting, kicking, punching, yelling everything. Kouga was out cold within moments. Inuyasha stood up and spat on him for e0mphasis , before walking over to where Kagome and Sango were. Sango was bent over Kagome, trying to bring her around.
Inuyasha picked Kagome up bridal style, and him and Sango headed back to the house. On the way there, they met up with Miroku.
"Hey guys, did I miss anything?"
.:.A few hours later.:.
Kagome awoke to find herself in her own bed. This confused her as the last thing she remebered was watching a movie at Sango's house, and she was supposed to be sleeping over. Then it all came back to her; Inuyasha, The fight, and the pain.
She winced as she tried to get out of bed and looked at the clock. 12:04 a.m it read. Kagome groaned, this was going to be a long night. She stared at the ceiling for a while, before getting extremely bored. Hearing noises downstairs, she decided to investigate.
She eased herself out of her bed, and stood up. Her entire body protested the action. Kagome took a step, and her battered legs gave out from under her. She landed face first on the floor.
Or she WOULD have, had not someone with silvery hair and claws darted out of the shadows and grabbed her shoulders, he nose centemetres from the floor.
Inuyasha picked her up bridal style and brought her back over the the bed. About to lay her back down, she protested.
"Noooo, I want to go downstairs." she whined.
"You need to rest." Inuyasha told her, a little worried.
"But...I can't sleep, and I'm bored." she argued.
Inuyasha sighed. He knew she really should be resting, but she was bored. She would probably fall asleep once they got downstairs anyway, and he could bring her right back up.
"Alright, but only for a little bit. Sango's sleeping over, and so am I. Everyone's still up so I guess it's ok."
He carried her out of the room and downstairs. She claimed she could walk just fine, but he raised his eyebrows and reminded her of her attempt only moments before. She blushed and fell silent.
He brought her to the living room where everyone was. Sango was asleep in Miroku's arms on the loveseat, and Miroku's parents were getting up from the couch.
"Oh Kagome! How are you? Inuyasha, are you sure she should be up?" Miroku's mother asked worriedly.
"She woke up on her own and wanted to come down. She's as fine as she could be after all she's been through." Inuyasha said shortly.
"Oh, ok then. Good night everyone!" Miroku's mother replied and went off to bed.
Miroku was watching t.v while cuddling a now lightly snoring Sango. Inuyasha slowly sat down on the couch and turned himself and Kagome so that he was laying down with his back resting against the arm rest, and his legs were stretched out infront of him. He hesitated for a moment, then shifted Kagome so that she was on her back, her head was on his chest, and her legs were inbetween his. He put his arms underneath hers and folded his hands on her stomach. When she didn't protest to this he smiled. Perhaps she did like him a little more than he thought.
To his great surprise, Kagome put her hands on top of his and turned her head so that her head was facing the t.v and her ear was pressed against his chest. She closed her eyes and listened to his heartbeat.
His heartbeat was very quick for a few minutes, but once she completely relaxed, it slowed down. Once it was a steady thump-thump in her ear, she fell asleep. Inuyasha noticed her breathing regulate, kissed her on the top of her head and promptly fell asleep himself.
Kagome awoke to find Sango staring at her with a disbeliving expression on her face, and herself snugged on top of Inuyasha with his arms around her. She looked back up at Sango.
"What?" she asked, only half-awake.
Inuyasha eyes finally focused on the figure that was blocking his view of the ceiling.He found himself staring into navy blue eyes. He left out a yell of surprise and sat bolt upright, crashing into the person and making Kagome cry out in pain.
"Owwwwwwwww." Inuyasha said rubbing his forehead. "Kagome! Are you alright?" he asked, shifting Kagome so that her head was in his lap and she was lying straight again.
"Yeah.." Kagome responded, a little breathless. "Why are you staring at me Sango?"
"Ummmmm, Miroku, Inuyasha, could you excuse us for a moment? Girl talk!" Sango said quickly and grabbed Kagome, pulling her from the room. Inuyasha growled and started after the person who had taken Kagome from him, but was stopped by Miroku. "What?" Inuyasha said blankly.
.:.With the Girls.:.
Kagome settled into a chair in the kitchen as Sango paced.
"What is it Sango? Tell me!" Kagome asked, concerned at her best friend's behaviour.
"Do you like him?" Sango sprung the question out of nowhere on her.
Kagome jump and stared at her friend. But before she could answer, Sango went on.
"Dog demons, they...are kinda like wolf demons. They only have one mate in life, and the stay with them until they die. It's usually a love-at-first-sight kinda thing with them, and Inuyasha has fallen quite hard for you. While you were sleeping he told me about how he would have died to save you from Kouga, and how stupid he was for bringing you into danger back there. He said he would have killed himself had you died, once he killed Kouga of course." Sango told her seriously. "They..uh...also...well..." Sango rubbed the back on her neck and looked away from Kagome.
Kagome absorbed this information, and couldn't believe it. "Y-you mean...h-he...he likes me?" She noticed Sango was reluctant to tell her something. "Sango, what aren't you telling me?"
