Breif Summary- He chases her because he knew that she would run.

Rating- K or K+ for this chapter

BanKag Drabbles

Cat and Mouse

(This chapter is for Schwartz Stein, if he even reads this fic.)

He chased her because he knew that she would run, it had always been that way and he thought that she was an idiot for doing this but he also knew that she would never stop. She couldn't allow herself to get close to him yet she had fallen for him non the less. She jumped into the well and a blue light surrounded her, it didn't matter to him, he knew she'd be back. He wasn't unsure of her like Inuyasha was, he didn't make her cry and then turn around and wonder if she'd even bother coming back.

He was right, she did return and when she did she sat beside him on the grass, handing him one of

the things that she called "chocolate" from "her time", whatever those were, but he knew that the brief time that they spent together would not last, he was her enemy after all. No, not hers, but Inuyasha's and that made them enemies as well.

And he was correct once more for as she heard the sound of the half-demon yelling she jumped up and ran, he didn't bother chasing her, the game could continue tomorrow. For now he'd just sit and relax, if they were lucky then she would be able to sneak away and they wouldn't have to play this game of cat and mouse any longer. It was stupid really, they shouldn't have been doing this, they were lovers but no one knew, not even Naraku.

Though the girl, Kikyo, that looked strangely like Kagome had found them together one day and he had thought that she'd looked oddly pleased, saying something about how she had known that they would both eventually betray the man that they had both cared for, and Bankotsu couldn't make heads or tails of why Kagome looked so sad after she had said that or what she had meant. He prided himself for not being as much of an idiot as Inuyasha but he still couldn't understand anything about what was happening when it came to the two of them, and he decided that he'd stop trying.

She approached him with more caution then normal and he realized that this was because of where they were.

"Follow me," she whispered, gesturing with her hand to follow.

He stood and she led him to a tree, the biggest one in the forest and he suddenly felt at peace. "This is the sacred tree, it's where I first met Inuyasha," he would have been a real idiot to miss the far away look in her eyes.

She shook her head.

"But I don't want to think about him when I come here, or anywhere for that matter. I want to think of... you," she said, whispering the last part.

"I'm sick of this game, I hate playing chase with you. I don't want to do this anymore, can't we be together without this game of cat and mouse?"

He smiled and wrapped his arms around her.

"I was just waiting for you to ask,"

She sighed and leaned into the hug whispering, "Good," before closing her eyes and allowing the peaceful moment to overtake her.

Wow, that's all I can say. 34 reviews. I'm so happy! As a thanks I plan on a big update in the very near future. (As in like 8 chapters) I hope that this one makes sense, I wrote it when I was falling asleep. --'' Ah yes, the joys of 5am inspiration. XD lol

And to Schwartz Stein, my condolences on your past predicament. How anyone could do something like that is beyond me, how stupid could someone be. And I'm very sorry that I wasn't here to help, though I'm very glad that you got it taken care of. It just makes me want to... (famous temper flares up)
Black-rose23- Yup, quite a lot... if I told my mom that she'd probably faint too. Lol. Or not. And about if they are getting married well... you'll just have to wait and find out. I have more chapters for that particular piece planned. Oh and I'm changing the name for that piece to Together so if you see more of those then it's the continuations. And thanks so much for reviewing. Reviews make me happy.

Lady Ptera- Thanks. :) I'm glad that you liked it.

Rose-chan- lol. I'm very very glad that you liked it, and don't worry about not knowing what to say, I normally do that too. XD

reki-sama- Thanks! Yes love and peace will ALWAYS prevail! They must!

FormerAurora- Wow, it's awesome... cool! Ah... I've no clue what a cannon and non-cannon pairing is but I can guess and thanks! I've been working on different ideas for the drabbles and sorry that it takes so long to post these, my mom's way strict about school. XD And yes, I know how you feel... I happen to like RenkotsuKagome as well... Blame it on OnireiKirara who suggested it when we were IMing each other in the first place. XD I'm joking, don't blame her.

Sangotaku6- Yay! You like it! I'll try my very hardest! And I must apologize for not reviewing your stories, I've been too lazy to, I promise that I will review every chapter here soon though.

Corosi- Thanks! Ah yes, fluff, actually it's my first fluff fic, ever. :) I'm glad that it gets such positive responses, the BanKag people sure are nice. :D And it's not really on hold, all of my stories are but I'm updating this one and To Be Deeper pretty reguarly, the others haven't been updated in months.

Aya SL- Updated, and I'm glad that you liked it.
