Ch.5 Explanations
RECAP.
"Inuyasha?" She asked looking over at him.
"I thought you were asleep." He said looking at the cieling.
"I can't sleep." She told him and he looked over at her. She got off the bed and walked over to sit next to him on the floor.
"And?" He asked looking at the cieling again. She hit him lightly. "What?" He asked looking at her.
"You can talk to me...you know, keep me company." She told him.
"I could...but I thought you were mad at me?" He asked looking at her.
"I am not. I guess...and a little...I don't know, maybe uncomfortable." She said looking down. Inuyasha sat up and looked at her.
"Oh ya? How come?" He asked her softly.
"Because this whole thing...I still feel like this is all wrong because you loved Kikyo first, and it's just all confusing but I don't know what to do." She said still looking down. Inuyasha sat back against the bed pulling Kagome to sit with him.
"Oh is that it?" He asked her holding her tight.
END.OF.RECAP.
"Miroku...what do you think happend to Inuyasha? He left a couple of days ago." Sango said.
"I can only imagine what him and Kagome are up to." Miroku said with a smirk. Sango looked at him with a dark narrowed look. Miroku looked at her and saw the look she was giving him and tried to correct himself. "No not like that Sango, I mean I don't know what their doing. We could imagine but we won't know for sure." Miroku said trying his best to defend himself.
"Mrow." Kilala yawned as she walked off. They were tiring her from their constant bickering.
"Kilala?" Sango asked as she got up and followed her to the hut. "Good night Miroku." Sango simply said as she walked into the hut.
"Good night Sango." Miroku said relieved. "May you have sweet dreams." He said quietly when she dissapeared into the hut.
INUYASHA.AND.KAGOME.
Kagome nodded as Inuyasha held her close.
"Kagome, I love you, and only you. You want the truth?" Inuyasha asked her and she looked at him confused.
"What truth?" She asked him.
"The truth about me and Kikyo." He told her and she looked back down again.
"No it's ok, you don't have to tell me." She told him and he smirked and lifted her chin to face him. She turned in her sitting postion to face him so it wasn't so uncomfortable. "I understand, you don't have to tell me." She said but didn't really understand. She didn't even know why she was telling him that.
"No, I want to tell you Kagome. You don't understand. You can't understand because I just started understanding not that long back myself." He told her. She looked at him confused again. He laughed a bit from her constant confusion. "Well, that's if I can stop confusing you." He smirked. She looked down and blushed. He lifted her chin to face him. "I don't think...No I never truly loved Kikyo. I knew being a hanyou had it's disadvantages, one being disliked. So when I 'thought' Kikyo liked me I stuck around because I was actually being liked by someone. I thought I was being accepted for once. Truth is I wasn't. Kikyo never accepted me. She wanted me to become human, but i'm not human. She never actually cared for me as me. But you....you did Kagome." He said stroking her face. "I don't think I understood love then. But I think I understand now, because if this is isn't love then I don't know what is. I didn't want history to repeat itself and then be heartbroken again. I couldn't get over Kikyo because I thought I loved her...but I didn't. I was so hung over my past that I never paid attention to what my true feelings were." He stopped when he saw Kagome start to cry. He wiped her tear away. "Kagome don't cry." He told her.
"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to cause so much trouble. And the fact that you were disliked, that's not true. You have friends." She told him. He smiled one of his rare smiles at her.
"Don't be sorry. You didn't cause trouble, you fixed everything. You prevented me from making a huge mistake. What if I did go to hell with Kikyo? Then I wouldn't be able to live my life...or get the chance to tell you how I truly felt." He told her. "And I know I have friends...I was closed off though and didn't trust anyone to try to make friends. It was more my fault that I was alone. But you were the one who taught me to trust. Thanks to you I have friends who care." He smiled at her.
"I didn't do anything." She told him.
"Ya you did. You got me to trust you, you are the first person who had ever cried for my well-being. You have tried to protect me the way I protect you...by the way don't do that anymore, I don't know what i'll do if I lose you." He said and she looked down.
"What makes you think I can stand by and watch you get hurt?" She asked him.
"Nothing tells me that...just be careful." He told her, she nodded and looked back at him as he began to talk again. "I didn't mean to give you the empression that I just decided to just be with you all of a sudden. I want to be with you because you mean alot to me. I love you Kagome. There is no other person I love as much as you. Do you understand?" He asked her as she held back tears. She leaned into hug him.
"Ya...I think I do, because I love you too." She told him now glad he explained to her, but she felt a little guilty about Kikyo. She never meant to take Inuyasha away from her. He wrapped his arms around her and hugged her back kissing her on the top of the head.
"Please stop crying, I hate to see you cry." He told her as he lied his head on top of hers.
"Sorry...you just...don't plan on hearing someone saying that to you." She laughed a bit and so did he.
"You mean you didn't think anyone would ever tell you they loved you?" He asked her.
"No that's not it. I mean you never think you would hear that you actually mean something to someone." She told him honestly. He chuckled.
"Well you do." He said hugging her tighter then pulled away to look her in the eyes. "I know how I feel, trust me." He smirked.
"I love you too." She smiled back at him.
"Still uncomfortable?" He asked her.
"Well i'm not confused anymore. It's just all new to me. But i'll get over it." She smiled as she leaned over to kiss him pushing him back so he was right against the bed, surprising him. He looked at her with wide eyes. He smirked when he saw her smiling as she kissed him and he kissed her back. She pulled back and started laughing. He smirked at her as she rolled so she was now lying on the floor from laughing.
"Who said I was finished?" He asked with a smirk as he leaned over her and stopped her laughing as his lips covered hers.
"You know...if Sota...were in here...he would get...grossed out." Kagome said between Inuyasha's kisses. He pulled away and looked at her.
"He'll get over it." He smirked as he kissed her again until Kagome's stomach growled. She blushed and Inuyasha laughed into the kiss. He pulled away from her and looked at her blushing face. "Hungry?" He asked smirking.
"Uhh...just a little." She told him as she got up. He followed her as they walked down to the kitchen. "Want some Ramen?" She asked him.
"You don't have to ask me twice." He said as he stood next to her as she heated some water up. He looked toward the fridge and walked over to it remembering that was where the drinks were kept. "Thirsty?" He asked her.
"Sure." She said as he reached in and pulled out two cans of sprite. He placed them on the counter and went back to the fridge to close the door when something caught his eye. He pulled out a container.
"Hey Kagome what's this? It smells like that chocolate stuff you bring Shippo...only different." He said when he sniffed the top.
"Oh that's chocolate syrup. You can use it for milk or ice cream...which sounds really good right now." She said as she walked over to the fridge after putting the noodles into the pot and opening the freezer. She pulled out a tub of ice cream.
"What's that?" He asked her as he went over to observe it.
"Vanilla Ice cream. It's a dessert, want to try some?" She asked him as he leaned over her shoulder to look at it.
"I guess." He said as he picked the top off and was fixing to stick his finger in there before Kagome grabbed his arm.
"Not yet. After you eat your Ramen." She told him lightly slapping his hand away.
"Keh, fine." He said as he sat at the table with a pouty look.
"Don't get mad, your just supposed to eat dessert after you eat some real food." She told him.
"I'm not mad." He told her.
"Mhm, right." She said as she got bowls for the ramen and ladeled some into each bowl.
"I'm not." He said as she placed a bowl and silverware in front of him. She sat across from him and smiled at him.
"Ok Inuyasha." She said as she began to eat. He looked at her before beging to eat himself. She had finally got him to eat properly not to long ago. They ate quietly until Kagome couldn't take it anymore. "Say something." She told him.
"What?" He asked, he didn't understand what she meant.
"It's to quiet and it's driving me crazy." She told him.
"What am I supposed to say?" He asked her.
"I don't know, anything will do. Just start a conversation." She told him as she ate.
"Why do I have to start a conversation?" He asked her looking at her like she was acting weird.
"Because...fine i'll do it. Stupid jerk." She said under her breath. "I have nothing." She sighed.
"Did you call me a jerk?" He asked her.
"Ya, because you are. You can't even start a conversation." She told him.
"Were talking, were in a conversation." He told her in a smart-alec way. She looked at him narrowedly.
"Shut up." She told him as she finished her food.
"What? First you want me to talk and now you want me to be quiet? Damn woman, make up your mind." He said as he ate the rest of his food.
"Inuyasha your such a smart ass." She told him and she got up to put their dishes away.
"Kagome!" He said surprised. She looked at him like something was wrong.
"What? What happend?" She asked in a sort of panic.
"I've never heard you talk like that." He told her. "You shouldn't pick up bad habits."
"Wow, I can't believe your the one telling me this. You have the worst mouth." She told him.
"Ya, but I don't want you to also." He told her as he walked up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waste as she put some ice cream in two more bowls.
"Why not?" She asked him blushing a little.
"Because it's not good." He told her.
"Fine." She sighed and got some ice cream on her finger and stuck some in her mouth.
"Hey, I thought you said I could try some?" He asked her. She shrugged. He stuck his finger in it and got a little bit and sniffed it before putting it in his mouth. "Not bad...a little cold, but good." He said. She nodded to him. He was going to stick his finger in it again about to eat some more until Kagome stopped him.
"You tried it, now you can wait till you get your bowl." She told him.
"Keh, whatever." He said and he let go of her as she brought the bowls to the table. They sat in the same spots and she brought some spoons for them. She started to eat it after she poured some syrup on it. Inuyasha did the same and got a big hunk of ice cream on his spoon and stuck it in his mouth. "Augh!" He held his head.
"Inuyasha?" She got up and went to his side.
"It's really cold." He said holding his head.
"Brain freeze?" Kagome asked before laughing.
"Shut up wench." He said as he felt better and he pulled her into his lap.
"No." She said and stuck her tongue out at him.
"Ok fine, then you can't move from this spot." He told her with a smirk.
"Urgh...fine." She said as she leaned on the table to pull her bowl over to her and her spoon. She flicked some ice cream at him before she began to eat her ice cream and swallowed before sticking her tongue out at him again.
"HEY!" He said looking down at the ice cream now on his haori. He glared at her as he removed it from himself and put it on the table. "You are something." He chuckled as he watched her. She got some ice cream on her finger and put it on his nose. "Oi, wench." He said before wiping it away with his finger and eating it. She started to laugh at him. He stuck his finger in his and did the same to her. She gave him a narrowed look when she didn't move to wipe it off. She got it off and stuck her finger in her ice cream again but shoved it in his mouth instead.
"Mmm...good." He said as he ate it. He got some on his finger and leaned forward making her lean back so she was only being kept from falling to the ground by Inuyasha's arm under her. He held it to her mouth and she ate it before he leaned forward to kiss her. He got up with her sitting up now licking his fingers. "Mmm, this stuff is good." He smirked.
"Oh ya?" She asked with a smirk also. She turned so both legs were on both sides of him as she faced him with an arm around his neck. He was holding an arm around her waist to keep her from falling back. She had ice cream on her finger and put it to his lips and he held her wrist as he licked her finger. She blushed from his action. He smirked at her while he was getting ice cream on his own finger and put some in her mouth taking her idea as he leaned in to kiss her and tasted the ice cream on her.
"Yup." He said once he pulled away and licked his lips. She gave him a narrowed look.
"Needs more syrup." She said smiling mischevously. She picked up the syrup bottle and poured some on her finger and motioned him to come closer to her with her finger. He leaned closer but she pulled her finger to her mouth and licked it off. She smiled at him sweetly as she teased him, he looked at her evily. He picked her up and carried her away leaving the ice cream behind. "HEY! Inuyasha! Where are we going?!" She asked as he carried her to the living room and dropped her on the couch and got on top of her but keeping his arms at her sides to keep his wieght off her. He smirked before leaning in to kiss her. She tried to push him off. "Inuyasha! That's not fair!" She said in a pouty way. He grabbed both her wrists and put them above her head as he held them down. He went to kiss her again, she struggled at first but couldn't resist him for much longer before giving into his kiss. He licked her lips asking for enterance and she let him in willingly and he explored her mouth with his tongue and found her's as he began to caress it with his own. He slowly pulled his hands away from her wrists as he lightly dragged his claws down her arm sending shivers to run down her spine as she moaned into the kiss. He smiled as he got her to moan for him. He brought his hands to her sides as he brought his claws up and down her sides carefully and lightly until his ear twitched as he heard footsteps outside. He pulled away and looked towards the door and the knob began to turn and he lifted Kagome up as he ran up the stairs to her room. Kagome was about to yell in surprise when he covered her mouth with his hand. He closed the door and put her down so she was standing and he pulled her back to his chest as he held her close with his hand still on her mouth.
"Shh...your mom's home." He whispered into her ear. Her eyes widened and he slowly brought his hand away from her mouth. She began to try to run to her bed pulling Inuyasha with her since he was holding her. He let go when she stood by it then she slapped her hand to her forehead and went into her closet real fast closing the door as she changed into her pajamas and opened the door again pulling out a sleeping bag throwing it on the floor pointing to it in a hurriedly way as she jumped in her bed and he lied in the sleeping bag and right as he covered himself and got settled the door opened with Ms. Higurashi peeking inside to see the two 'sleeping'. She smiled and walked into the room and covered her daughter more and kissing her on the forehead and turned to Inuyasha and laughed to herself as she pulled the cover up more on him too. She loved caring for them.
"Sweet dreams you two." Ms. Higurashi said as she walked out closing the door behind her. They both sat up and looked at the door before sighing in relief.
"That was close." Kagome whispered over to Inuyasha.
"Ya, i'd hate to know what your mom would have said if we didn't get out of there in time." He whispered back as they both brought their eyes from the door to each other and blushed.
"Wow, that would be scary...I guess we better go to bed." Kagome said and lied back on her bed.
"Ya...I guess your right." Inuyasha said lying down on the sleeping bag. He scooted to the side trying hard to make himself comfortable, he wasn't really used to actually sleeping like this. He was usually on guard as he slept. Kagome faced the side Inuyasha lied on and noticed him facing the other way. She closed her eyes as sleep overcame her. Inuyasha and slowly sat up and went to the side of her bed and pushed her bangs out of her face and kissed her on the forehead lightly, before he lied back down and let sleep take him too. Inuyasha had tossed and turned alot as he slept from being uncomfortable. Kagome awoke, she was feeling that he was uncomfortable somehow...she didn't know how, but she just knew he was. She sighed when he couldn't stay comfortable and grabbed her pillow and lied next to him awaking him.
"Hey." She said as she smiled to him.
"Hey, what are you doing?" He asked her quietly.
"Getting comfortable." She said as she got under his cover and lied near him. He smiled and wrapped his arms around her. "Is that ok?" She asked him.
"Sure." He said as she smiled. "It's ok, but what if your mom comes in here?" He asked in a whisper.
"She won't." She assured him as she closed her eyes.
"If you say so." He said before she fell asleep. He heard her even breathing and noticed she was asleep and he held her close. "Good night Kagome." He said and closed his eyes and fell into a better sleep with the comfort of Kagome right next to him.
MORNING.
Kagome awoke as the sun hit her eyes and shut her eyes tight from the blinding sunlight as she stretched and realized she was still on the floor. She tried to get up but was stopped by Inuyasha's tight grip around her.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked in a whisper.
"Go back to sleep." He told her tiredly.
She knew he never gets a very good sleep since he's always on guard so she did what he said and cuddled into his chest hiding her face from the sun. He felt her move closer and held her tighter with a smile as he fell back asleep as she rested there until she also fell back asleep.
DOWNSTAIRS.
"Mom i'm going to school now!" Sota yelled.
"Ok, bye dear. Oh Sota where's your sister?" Ms. Higurashi asked. Sota smirked as he answered.
"She's still asleep." He told her.
"What about Inuyasha?" She asked him. His smirk got bigger the more she asked.
"He's asleep too. They're both asleep." He said trying to hint to her...yet she didn't catch it. He looked down as he shook his head. "Bye mom." He said as he walked out of the house closing the door behind him.
"I guess they're tired from all that fighting in the other world." Ms. Higurashi said to herself. "Poor dears." She said as she continued her work around the house.
UPSTAIRS.AN.HOUR.LATER.
Kagome shifted as she pulled the blanket over her head with Inuyasha's arms still around her. She slowly awoke when he tightened his grip a little. When she opened her eyes she just saw the blanket over head. Inuyasha brought the blanket down as he looked at her. She smiled up at him.
"Morning." She said as she streatched.
"Morning. Bout time you woke up." Inuyasha smirked.
"Your the one who told me to go back to sleep this morning." Kagome told him. "Besides, I was comfortable." She said smiling.
"Oh really?" He asked with a chuckle as she nodded. "Well i'm glad you slept better." He told her.
"Yup, the best sleep ever." She said stretching her arms up once more and tried to get up.
"Where are you going, I thought you said you were comfortable?" He smirked.
"I am, but I wont be for long if I don't go to the bathroom soon." She told him and he let her go. She got up and left the room as he slowly sat up before deciding to get up.
"Kagome?" Ms. Higurashi asked as she heard the bathroom door open as Kagome came out.
"Ya?" She asked walking downstairs.
"Good morning dear." Ms. Higurashi said as her daughter walked into the kitchen.
"Morning." She replied.
"Sleep well?" Her mom asked her.
"Ya." She blushed.
"Well I found this on the kitchen table last night with ice cream all over it with the bowls next to it." Ms. Higurashi said holding up Inuyasha's haori. "I washed it since it had gotten dirty." She told her.
"Oh thanks mom." Kagome said blushing as she took the haori from her. "Sorry about the mess." She said to her mom.
"It's ok. It was late, you must have been tired. Are you going back today?" Ms. Higurashi asked her. Kagome nodded.
"Ya, I think so. I need to pick something up over there for Sota." Kagome told her.
"Ok well I have to run to the grocery store, so have fun and be careful." Her mom told her as she kissed her on the forehead and grabbed her purse.
"Ok I will, bye mom." Kagome said back as she walked out the door. Kagome watched her leave before walking back upstairs with the haori in her hand. She walked inside her room finding Inuyasha sitting on the window-sil looking outside. He turned to her when he heard the door close. He looked like he was deep in thought. She could have melted from the way he was looking at her with those amber eyes. "Here you left this on the table last night." Kagome told him as she walked over to him holding out his haori to him.
"Hmm, so I did." Inuyasha said as he took it from her and placed it next to him and turned back to the window. "So are we going back today?" He asked not turning to look at her.
"If you want to." She told him. "Plus I have to get that costume thing for Sota. Do you think Sango would mind?" She asked him.
"No I don't think she would." He said and she noticed how he never looked toward her and she walked and stood beside him and looked out the window too.
"What are you thinking about?" She asked him and he turned to her.
"Nothing. Just waiting for you to get ready." He told her but she knew he was thinking about something, she just didn't know what. She went and got her backpack and walked back downstairs to fill it with food and snacks. She left it on the counter as she went back to the her room to get some clothes to change and went to the bathroom to change into them. She just wore her regular school uniform. Inuyasha was at the bathroom door when she opened the it surprising her at first.
"Gosh you scared me Inuyasha." She said putting her hand on her heart. He was standing there with his elbow on the side of the door frame with his head resting against his hand as he looked down at her. "What?" She asked when he was just looking at her...smiling at her. She blushed when he wouldn't stop looking down at her. His eyes now held calmness and...love and passion. They had some sort of sparkle to them now as he looked at her. He put his hand under her chin as he leaned in to kiss her.
"KAGOME!" Ms. Higurashi yelled as she came into the house and Inuyasha hung his head in defeat and dropped his hand that was under her chin to his side.
"YA?!" Kagome asked trying to hold in a laugh.
"I was just seeing if you were still here. I forgot my wallet in my room, I had forgotten I took it out of my purse." She called up the stairs.
"Oh ok!" She called back. "Did you want me to get it for you?" She asked not taking her eyes off of Inuyasha.
"If you don't mind sweety." She said.
"Ok." Kagome said and leaned forward kissing Inuyasha on the cheek before running to her mother's room. She grabbed the wallet from her dresser and ran downstairs giving her the wallet. "Here you go." She told her.
"Thank you, I'll be going now. Is Inuyasha still here?" Ms. Higurashi asked when she saw the backpack on the counter.
"Ya he's upstairs." She told him.
"I figured you two would be gone. What are you doing?" She asked curiously.
"Oh just getting everything together." She told her mother.
"Ok well i'll see you later. Bye dear." She said once more as she left again. Kagome waved and went back upstairs to find Inuyasha in the same spot. She walked in front of him and lifted his head.
"I'm starting to think your mom dosn't like me, or we have really bad luck." He told her.
"I don't know, maybe she just knows the right times to walk in." Kagome giggled and kissed Inuyasha lightly once more on the lips before walking back downstairs. He watched her walk away and then decided to follow. "Ready to go?" She asked him.
"Yup, let's hurry before Miroku gets any perverted thoughts." Inuyasha said putting her backpack over his shoulder. "Come on." He said as he walked to the back door.
"Coming." She said following behind. "Wait what about your haori?" She asked pointing at him.
"Oh ya I forgot it upstairs." He said as he put the bag down and walked upstairs and grabbed it and came back down as he put it back on. Kagome took the bag so he could finish putting it on. They walked outside as he tucked his haori into his pants and then took the bag from her. She looked at him when it got pulled off her shoulder and she smiled at him as he led her toward the well house with his hand on her back. He smiled back down at her. He opened the well house door for her and they both jumped in. "I might not be able to kiss you for a while." He said as he wrapped his arms around her waist and leaned in to kiss her and she reached and wrapped her arms around his neck, making her have to stand on her toes to be at his height as the blue light of the time portal brought them to the feudal era. He pulled away from her as the blue light discipitated. He looked down at her and pushed her hair behind her ear.
"I know it's still new and all, and it still feels a little awkward finally being able to say this but I want you to know I love you Inuyasha." She told him smiling.
"I know." He smirked. "I love you too." He said softly, kissing her lightly on the lips quickly and pulled away sticking his hand out. "Shall we?" He asked and she placed her hand in his and he wrapped his arm around her waist again and jumped out of the well and he let her go as they walked down to the hut. She linked her arm with his and rested her head against his arm as they walked. They saw Sango walk out of the hut and Kagome pulled away from Inuyasha and ran down to Sango.
"Kagome! Your back!" Sango said and hugged her friend once she reached her.
"Ya, I missed ya." Kagome said and pulled away from her and looked around. "Where is everyone?" She asked. "Are they still inside?"
"Yup, I came out to blow off some steam." Sango said glarring at the hut. Kagome giggled as she caught on of what happend.
"That pervert at it again?" Inuyasha asked as he reached the two.
"Ugh! You have to ask? He's not going to ever learn." Sango told him as he walked by them and went into the hut finding Miroku lying on the floor unconscious. Inuyasha kicked him as he walked by.
"Hey wake up you fucking pervert!" Inuyasha said and put the backpack down in a corner. Miroku got up slowly rubbing his cheek where there was now a red handprint.
"Inuyasha? Welcome back. What have you been up to this whole time in Kagome's era?" Miroku asked as he stood up.
"Hi Inuyasha!" Shippo said running over to the backpack and opened it to dig for chocolate.
"Hey runt what do you think your doing?" Inuyasha asked as he lifted him by his tail and brought him up to eye level.
"Looking for candy." Shippo said simply, crossing his arms.
"I'm going to go look for Sango." Miroku said as he walked out knowing what was coming up.
"Greedy little brat, you could ask." Inuyasha said thumping him on the head and dropping him on the floor.
"Owww! KAGOME!" Shippo yelled running out of the hut to Kagome. "Kagome! Inuyasha hit me!" Shippo yelled and Kagome went into the hut leaving Shippo with Sango.
"SIT!" She yelled as the others creeped away knowing a fight was brewing. They walked over to a hill and sat down.
"KAGOME!" Inuyasha yelled from his spot on the ground. She crouched down in front of him with her arms crossed on top of her legs. "What was that for?" He asked as he looked up at her.
"You know I hate it when you treat Shippo that way cuz then I have to say..." Kagome started.
"No don't say it!" Inuyasha stopped her in a panic.
"...the word, why can't you just be nice to him?" She asked him after correcting herself.
"Because that runt dosn't behave right." He told her grumpily.
"That dosn't mean you have to hit him though. It's not nice to make me have to say 'it' to you. I don't like choosing sides." She told him.
"Then just don't sit me if it bothers you so much." Inuyasha told her.
"It's not that easy. If you can behave then I won't have to say it, then I won't feel bad for saying it." She explained to him.
"Keh, I'm only teaching the kid a lesson. That way he would obey, he has to learn somehow you know. You spoil him to much. He's not going to learn if you keep babying him." Inuyasha told her, leaving her surprised.
"So you...you mean you hit him because your...looking out for him?" Kagome asked surprised.
"Of course, why else?" Inuyasha asked. "You thought I found pleasure in hitting him?"
"Well...I wasn't sure." Kagome said honestly.
"Well I don't, damn Kagome i'm not that harsh." Inuyasha told her as he sat up.
"I never said you were. I just thought you hit him when you got mad at him." Kagome explained.
"I'm not going to do that to the kid." He told her. "Ya I get mad at him, he needs to be taught to act right. He can't act like that way all the time." Inuyasha told her, as he crossed his arms inside his sleeves.
"Wow, I didn't know you cared about him." Kagome said still a little shocked. "I mean like..." She said but was cut off again.
"I know what you mean. I don't tell you guys everything about me and why I do things...well I didn't." He said correcting himself. She smiled at him.
"So you trust me enough to be open up to me now?" Kagome asked hopeful.
"Of course, I told you I love you Kagome. You think that's all there is to it? I trust you with all my heart and soul Kagome." Inuyasha told her looking straight into her eyes. She jumped forward into him embracing him in a hug.
"I love you too Inuyasha, and you already know I trust you with my life." She told him with a little laugh to her voice. He chuckled at her statement.
"Ya I know." He said and lifted her up. "What about Sota though?" He asked her. She was looking into his eyes.
"What about Sota?...OH! SOTA!" Kagome said pulling away from him and grabbing Inuyasha's haori sleeve dragging him behind her.
"Kagome! Sango isn't going anywhere!" Inuyasha told her.
"I know but we need to hurry." She said and reached the hill after she spotted her. She made it up to them panting. "Sango...do you think...you have any spare armor at...your village?" Kagome asked between breaths.
"Uhh...there might be some or I could make one with the armor parts...why do you ask Kagome?" Sango asked her standing in front of her.
"Well I wanted to see if you would mind if we got one for my brother? Halloween is coming up and he wanted something realistic. Would it be any trouble?" Kagome asked.
"Not at all, but...what's halloween?" She asked her.
"Oh it's a day when you dress in costumes. It's originally a day of the dead." She told them. She looked at them and they all looked at her with wide eyes.
"Day of the dead? Are you sure that's safe?" Miroku asked.
"Ya, that sounds scary." Shippo said now in Sango's arms once again.
"Well that's what it was originally but now a days people just dress up and go to houses for candy." Kagome told them.
"Candy?!" Shippo asked.
"Mhm, it's just for kids to have fun." Kagome told him.
"Well sure then, I don't mind. But when do you need it by?" She asked her.
"Is it possible to get it in two or three days?" Kagome asked.
"Sure, but we'll have to leave now." Sango told her.
"Oh well I don't want to push you into anything." Kagome told her.
"No it's ok, come on Kilala!" Sango called as the two tailed transformed into it's bigger form.
"Were going right this moment?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yup, come on. You could use a good run. You've been lazying around in Kagome's time to long." Miroku told him. Inuyasha glared at him and Kagome blushed. Shippo jumped on Kilala's back with Sango and Miroku.
"Come on Kagome." Inuyasha said glaring at Miroku the whole time. She got on his back trying not to pay any attention to the two.
"Hey don't waste your time starring at me. Stare at the beautiful girl on your back." Miroku told him. Kagome blushed madly when he said that. "And I can stare at this one." He said referring to Sango.
"Don't even think about it Miroku." Sango said as Inuyasha took off. Kagome hid her blush as much as she could as Inuyasha chuckled.
"Shut up." Kagome said as she lightly hit him on the shoulder.
"Ya but at least he's right." Inuyasha said as she blushed more and covered her face with her hands until she had to grab on to him when he started going faster.
"Don't you think we should wait for the others?" She asked him holding him tightly afraid of the speed they were going.
"They'll be behind us soon enough." He told her. "Kagome you can loosen up your grip a little, i'm not going to drop you." He said tensing his shoulder where she was holding on.
"Well I feel like i'm going to fall...sorry." She said but slowly let go but then grabbed on again.
"Kagome!" He said and tightened his grip on her legs. "Better? Now you can let go a little." He told her and she did.
"Much better. Sorry." She said and lied her head on his shoulder.
"Don't tell me your tired." He said as he felt her lie on his shoulder.
"No, just resting." She said as she played with his hair.
"Keh, right. You rested enough this morning, don't you think?" He asked her.
"Hey your the one who told me to go back to sleep so you can't blame me." She told him.
"Keh." The others were now seen flying right behind the two.
"Wow Kagome is awfully close to Inuyasha." Miroku said.
"That's because she's riding his back, sheesh Miroku." Shippo told him.
"I know that but she's lying on his shoulder...they're closer then normally." Miroku told them.
"...You don't think they...I mean..." Sango started.
"I don't know what to think, maybe they've told each other." Miroku stated.
"You think?" Shippo asked looking at them and suddenly Inuyasha sped up.
"We have an audience." He told Kagome and she lifted her head.
"What do you mean?" She asked him.
"Well I guess they can't stay out of our business." Inuyasha told her.
"Why? What were they saying?" She asked.
"They're making their own theories on why your resting your head on my shoulder, and that your closer to me then usual." He told her. She blushed, she didn't think of telling them before.
"I forgot that they didn't know...should we tell them?" She asked him and he looked toward her with a smirk.
"Nah, let's give them a show and let them make up their own minds on what they think." Inuyasha told her.
"That's a little mean don't you think?" She asked him giving him a narrowed look.
"Ya but they deserve it. They can't stay out of our business." He told her.
"But I can't do that to Sango." Kagome told him.
"She's always spying on us when she used to think we were having a moment." Inuyasha told her.
"SHE WHAT?!" Kagome asked surprised blushing.
"I heard her everytime." He told her. "So...you in?" He asked.
"Sure, this should be fun." Kagome smirked.
"Ah, Welcome to the dark side Kagome." He said smiling. She smirked back.
2.MINUTES.BEFORE.
"Where is he going?" Shippo asked.
"I don't know. But what do you think Miroku? Do you think he finally admitted to her?" Sango asked him.
"Maybe, but they havn't shared any alone time much since they've been back. So i'm not so sure." He told her stroking his chin.
"Maybe your right. Maybe were just imagining it." Sango said.
"Maybe, but how come we never heard them fight?" Shippo asked them.
"Well they were in the hut. Remember we were trying to get away." Miroku told him.
"Oh ya, then I guess Sango is right. Maybe we are imagining it." Shippo said and then Inuyasha appeared again.
"Look they're back again." Miroku said and Kagome was still resting her head on his shoulder.
"Is she...?" Sango started when it looked like Kagome was playing with his ears. Kagome peeked up at them and saw their faces.
"Wow they are going crazy up there, they don't know what's going on." Kagome giggled as she rubbed his ears.
"Mmm, ya." He said trying not to get side tracked as he felt her playing with his ears. She looked at him confused then smiled.
"Inuyasha you like it when I pet your ears don't you?" Kagome asked him and let his ears go.
"Uhh...NO!" He said wide eyed as he realized what he did. 'Shit shit shit!' He cursed to himself.
"Yes you do! Aww, you like the feeling of your ears being rubbed." Kagome teased as she rubbed his ears again.
"NO I DON'T!" He argued but couldn't get over the feeling of his ears being rubbed and got lost in the feeling. "Ugh..." He moaned as he tilted his head to give her better access.
"Yes you do." She said and stopped rubbing. He shook his head to snap out of the trance he was in.
"Wench! I told you I don't!" He told her.
"Ok ok fine. Sheesh Inuyasha, you don't have to get so defensive." Kagome told him.
"Keh." He said as the others watched.
"Yup we were imagining it...they're fighting again." Shippo said with a sigh as he slumped back on Kilala's back.
"Mrow." Kilala meowed as they got close to the old slayer's village.
"HEY! INUYASHA, WERE GETTING CLOSE! YOU CAN SLOW DOWN NOW!" Sango called down to them. He did as told and started to walk and Kagome got off his back as they walked through the village entrance.
