Thanks again for the reviews. I'm glad everyone is enjoying my newest story. Anyway heres the next chapter.
Kikyou who had been enjoying the kiss stopped kissing him. And to Inuyasha's surprise she pushed him away, he stared at her confused. But she did not look at him, and wondered if he did something wrong again.
"Kikyou did I do something wrong?" he asked.
"No you didn't."
She then got up and went back inside the house. He followed behind her, still wondering what he did wrong. He had never kissed someone before. What if he kissed her wrong and thats why she was trying to get away from him.
"Kikyou I never kissed anyone before. Sorry if I kissed you wrong." he told her.
She looked at him surprised. For someone that never kissed someone before he was good at it. And now she found out that they were each others first kiss.
"No you didn't kiss me wrong. In fact it was my first kiss as well." she confessed.
"I..." he started.
"Its been a long day we should just go to sleep." she told him.
It was now becoming obvious to him that she wanted to avoid what happened. But he didn't understand why, it had to be something he did. Why else would she want to forget about what happened.
"Kikyou... are you sure it wasn't me." he asked.
She could see some concern in his eyes. He was really worried that this was somehow his fault, which wasn't true at all. Actually her pushing him away had little to do with him at all.
"No it wasn't you don't have to worry."
She went up the stairs to her room, letting him know that their conversation was over. He sat there on the couch more confused than ever. Girls were certainly strange in the future he thought to himself. And as much as he hated to admit it he needed help from Kikyou's friend Miroku. He seemed to know an awful lot about them.
Soon Inuyasha began pacing back and forth nervously. He wanted to see if she was alright. But he had his pride and it prevented him from going up there. But soon found himself going up the stairs and standing in front of Kikyou's door.
"Inuyasha if your out there, please come in." she said.
It surprised the hell out of him that she knew he was there. She was certainly sharp, well for a human that is. But in he walked to see her sitting on her bed. She motioned for him to sit down and so he did, not knowing what to expect next.
"Inuyasha your really a decent guy." She started.
"Yea so what is all this about?" he asked.
"I just wanted you to know that what happened wasn't your fault."
He listened to her and wondered what she was getting at. She said that it wasn't his fault, but something happened to make her react to him like that. And for some reason he found that he wanted to know what that was.
"Alright, but why did you act like that?"
"Well its silly really. I didn't know how to act I never been in this situation before." she answered.
This was surprising to him. Kikyou was beautiful how come she never had a boyfriend. What was her story, he didn't understand.
"Your the first person I ever been this close too." he admitted.
"Yes thats true for me also. So you'll have to forgive me if I'm hesitant, besides we are still very much strangers. Its only been a few days and... well it just feels strange." she added.
He could understand that too. Everything about their situation was strange to him, but although it was strange. He found that he didn't want that feeling to end. He wasn't sure of he could say the same about Kikyou, he had no idea what her feelings were.
"I guess your right..." he told her.
"Inuyasha what am I to you?" she asked.
It was fairly dark in the room so she could not see the faint blush on his face. And he didn't answer her because, he had no answers. What he knew was he liked her, just how much he didn't know. He couldn't say it was love, could he. After all like she said they were still strangers, they couldn't possibly mean that much to each other.
"I'm not sure." he answered truthfully.
"I thought so, when you give it more thought let me know."
She didn't say anymore to him. Instead she turned over and got under her covers. She had to go back to work tomorrow although she didn't really feel up to it. Inuyasha sat there for a few minutes more before getting up to leave. But when he got to the door Kikyou called out to him.
"Inuyasha you can sleep here if you want too." she said.
"But..."
"You slept here before remember. I don't really see the problem."
That was true he didn't see the problem. Besides they were only two people with one thing in mind right, and that was of course sleep. So there they laid in complete and total silence, but both had many thoughts running threw their head.
Kikyou just realized that she had never answered his question. He asked if he was her boyfriend, but she never did answer him.
The truth was she didn't know what to call him. They weren't exactly best friends but they didn't hate each other. They met a few days ago and were now living together. They couldn't possibly be in love, but there was that attraction for one another.
"Hey Kikyou?" he asked.
"Yes Inuyasha."
"Well if you never had a boyfriend and I never had a girlfriend. What does that make us?"
"I think that we are just friends for now." she told him.
But for some reason he couldn't believe that. Since when did friends go around kissing each other. They had to be more than that.
"So you think of me like your friend Miroku?" he asked.
"No not quite. I could never see myself with him, besides he likes Sango. And you and I were sort of involved now, we cant just ignore what happened between us."
But before he could ask her anything more he found that she had gone to sleep. He couldn't really blame her, he was tired as well. Before drifting off to sleep he took another look at Kikyou. She looked really beautiful asleep he almost couldn't take his eyes off her.
He leaned over and left a kiss on her forehead. He didn't know why he did it, it just felt right.
"Sleep well Kikyou." he whispered.
And then he too turned over and drifted of to sleep. Both of them still thinking of that one important detail, how exactly did they feel about each other.
(The next morning at work)
Inuyasha decided to go with Kikyou to work. Many people were surprised to see that she brought him. Everyone except for Miroku and Sango.
"Whats up Inuyasha?" Miroku asked.
"Nothing why, should there be." he asked.
"Nah, I was just saying hello."
Kikyou and Sango left the boys to talk and they went to their desks. Kikyou really needed to talk to her best friend right now. She needed advice that only Sango could give her. Inuyasha as well needed guidance, but soon found that Miroku wasn't the best choice.
"So what happened?" Miroku asked.
"Nothing we just went to sleep."
"What no action. You were that close to Kikyou and you didn't make a move. Inuyasha your in the future man times have changed."
Inuyasha had the sudden desire to slap Miroku but saw something much more interesting. There was a guy standing by Kikyou, and he just hugged her. He felt a rush of anger and jealousy without another word he ran over to them. Pushing the guy away from Kikyou and staring at him angrily.
"Hey what the hell was that for?" the guy asked.
"Kikyou who the hell is this guy?" Inuyasha asked her.
