Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha, but my friend Lori makes these dog ears, so I have a pair of those…
A/N: No inspiration the past few days! I would have updated, but I didn't, and it sucked, and I have other stories, and yeah… It's tough… And my L.A. teacher may be reading this…
Greekchick: YAY! Another reviewer for this story! Seriously, This was, and still is my favorite story out of the three I have so far, and near nobody reviews…
bubblez4ya: I like fluff…
Sammaalnldvaille: You are not nobody! You read my profile? Wow, that rocks… And I was tired, had to finish the chappie, but whatever. I know, its hard for me too, and in my other story, Hacker:Code Red, I have everyone to remember, and their code names, and who is with who and pairings… so that story is worse than this one. And I read all of everyones reviews.

It was breakfast. Everyone was gathering around the table, waiting for the owner's speech. The only two that weren't here were Inuyasha and Kagome, and Sango had to hit Miroku repeatedly to rid him of any lecherous thoughts, which he had nonetheless.
After the long, slow talk with the people in the group, Suki said that someone should go wake Kagome and Inuyasha up.
"Oh, OH! I'll go!" Miroku yelled as she stood up and started to run to their rooms. Artemis grabbed him by the back of his sweater and pulled him back.
"Sango, can you go?" Kenara asked wearily. Sango nodded and walked to their rooms, everyone creeping a fair distance behind her. When she opened the door silently, she got a full view of the snuggling pair on the bed, and gasped, which set off the fantastic hearing of Inuyasha's ears and he bolted p in bed to stare wide-mouthed at him. He ran up with lightning speed to the door and slammed it in their faces, red as a beet.
"Wow… Inuyasha and Kagome… and he's a hanyou?" Sango said behind the door.
Inuyasha turned around and slipped on some pants and a shirt and woke up Kagome, who didn't stir throughout the whole fiasco.
"Mmm?" She asked as she rubbed her eyes with fists and looked up into Inuyasha's face, smiling broadly.
"Morning!"
"G' morning." He said back.
"So… they know… about last night?" Kagome blushed a shade of cherry red as Sango squealed through the door. Inuyasha nodded.
"Well… are you alright with it?" Inuyasha asked her.
"Silly." She smiled. "Of course I'm fine with it."
Inuyasha sat cross legged on the bed and looked at the raven haired girl, who was staring into the amber depths of his eyes.
" Erm… Kagome?"
"Yeah?"
Inuyasha shifted in his seat and continued to look upon the girl.
"IreallythinkI'mfallingforyoubutyoudon'thavetolikemebackit'sjustthatIhadtogetitout." He said, attempting to make the embarrassing line one word.
"I would like to understand you Inuyasha." Kagome said.
Inuyasha took a deep breath. "I really think I'm falling for you…" He said, taking a pause. "But you don't have to like me back, it's just that I had to get it out." He prepared himself for the sitting of a lifetime, but not for the girl reaching forward and hugging him tightly.
"I think I'm falling for you too, Inuyasha." Inuyasha looked down proudly at the girl he embraced, who was looking up at him, and he closed his eyes, leaning his head down to hers.
In what seemed like hours, their lips met in a sweet kiss, but it didn't take long to deepen it, Inuyasha running his tongue over Kagome's satin lips and asked for entry, which Kagome readily gave.
"Whoah, Inuyasha getting it on with the new girl before I could, hmm?" Miroku asked from the hall. The two broke the kiss, and glared angrily at him. Inuyasha growled one word at him.
"Run."
And Miroku broke into the fastest, speediest, neck-breaking run Kagome had ever seen, and Inuyasha gave her a chaste kiss on the lips before chasing after the lecherous man, growling a string of swears that would make a sailor blush.
Sango stepped into the room after Inuyasha left and sat with the dreamy-eyed girl on the bed.
"So, you're official now?"
"Shut up Sango." Kagome said absent-mindedly.

Most of the house had gone to the store with Kenara and Suki, and Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, and Miroku stayed behind. Miroku had taken aside Kagome to talk to her, and Sango likewise decided to talk to Inuyasha.
"Kagome, you have to understand some thing about Inuyasha." Miroku said. "Kikyo, the girl you resemble, used to live here at the house five years ago. Her and Inuyasha were girlfrind and boyfriend, and they were going to wed when they grew old enough. None of us were around then, so we didn't get to see Inuyasha in his hanyou form, or get to know Kikyo.
"When Inuyasha was twelve, five years ago, Kikyo committed suicide. Nobody knows why, she just… did. That's what the third room in Sukis' hall was. It was Kikyo's room.
"Just, if it's true about you and Inuyasha, please, don't do anything to him. He has been though enough already, okay?" Miroku asked as he finished the speech. Kagome nodded.
"I would never hurt Inuyasha. You should know that."

"Kagome has been though a hell of a lot in her life. Yesterday, she talked to me about what happened to her before she came here.
"Her parents were murdured by A man named Naraku, and her brother was taken in to slavery in the diamond mines. When Kagome was ten, she was sold to a man named Kouga Ookami, and was raped by him while in his possession. A girl of his, Ayame, she helped her escape from him when she was thirteen.
"From then on, she lived in foster homes and on the streets. Kouga and Naraku are still out there, trying to find her."
Sango sighed. "Just don't hurt her. And promise me that you will protect her for me."
"Sango, I swear, if I ever see that bastards face, I am going to rip it off." Inuyasha said in a barely controlled voice.

When Kenara burst into the living room where the four were watching a movie, nobody expected the next words to come out of her mouth.
"We've been attacked."
