Chapter 3!
They arrived at the hut together, and everyone was still sleeping, except for Sango. She greeted them with a smile, before raising her eyebrow at the thought that Kagome had returned at dawn, not dusk. As was usual.
"Kagome. I wasn't expecting you till at least noon." She said, knowing Inuyasha would get angry if she said sun down.
"I promised Inuyasha for the morning." She commented, in a low voice as to not wake the others.
Sango knelt down in front of Mirokus supposedly, still asleep from, so she could put a metal tea kettle on the fire. Suddenly there was a loud gasp from Sango, and she turned around, and slapped Miroku across the face. Who's hand was still on her butt.
"PERVERT!" She screeched, effectively waking up the whole hut.
Kaede rolled over on her futon with a knowing smile gracing her lips, while Shippou howled loudly.
"Miroku! Can't you be an idiot later?" He wined, as he curled himself into a tighter ball on the floor.
"Shippou!" Kagome called quietly, "I have some chocolate for you!"
That did it. The said kitsune was up in a flash, and curled in Kagome's lap.
Inuyasha watched as Kagome cuddled Shippou, and Kaede and a still glowering Sango, started to prepare breakfast. Until Kagome's scent wafted over him. As hard as he usually tried to ignore it, he just couldn't this time, and found himself closing his eyes as he inhaled deeply. But stopped suddenly. Something wasn't right about her scent.
"Kagome," Inuyasha said, as she was handing a bar wrapped in shiny, weird looking paper, to Shippou. "Who's at your house?"
She froze, and everyone watching saw it. "What do you mean?"
"I mean, there's some guy at your house who isn't you brother, or your grandfather. Who is he?" The scent had a very masculine air about it.
"Just a friend of my moms, it doesn't matter." She said quickly. Inuyasha could tell she was hiding something. So could the others, who were all staring at her curiously. All except Shippou who was still gnawing on his chalk-o-late. "So, when are we leaving?"
"We should head out after breakfast." Sango said, trying to diverge conversation from her friend.
"Then hurry up" Inuyasha said, as he sat down on the hut floor in his usual way. His back leaning up against the wall, while he sat Indian style.
They ate breakfast, and then headed east.
They'd camped for the night in a secluded clearing, close to a stream. And everyone had fallen asleep about an hour ago.
All except, for Inuyasha. Who was still contemplating the weird guy at the shrine.
Who was he? And why hadn't Kagome wanted to tell him? Inuyasha felt a surge of entrust for the man. Something about this didn't sit right.
Inuyasha was snapped out of his thoughts by the sound of whimpering below.
He looked to see Kagome, tossing and turning in her sleep, with a pained expression on her face, she was whispering quietly, "Don't...stop...leave me a-..." She whimpered again.
Inuyasha jumped out of his perch, in the tree right above her. And landed softly on the ground next to her.
Not knowing what to do, If he should wake her, or not. He thought about what his mother used to do to him when he had a bad dream. He decided it was worth a shot.
He picked up Shippou gently, as not to wake him, and deposited him in Sango's sleeping bag, before returning to Kagome.
He leaned forward and brushed the hairs from her forehead, and then laid the back of his hand on her cheek, All the while making soft shhing, sounds. She seemed to relax almost immediately, and leaned into his touch. He blushed, glad that she couldn't see it.
He stayed with her, one hand on her cheek all night long. But when dawn came, everyone awoke to find Inuyasha in his tree, and Shippou wondering how he'd got into Sango's sleeping bag.
2 WEEKS LATER
Kagome woke before dawn, and quietly started to gather her things. Trying not to wake the others. And hoping Inuyasha wasn't awake.
She'd instructed Sango to tell Inuyasha she'd be back in five days. Though she knew she'd never make it that long, She just hoped Inuyasha didn't come to collect her, and end up face to face with old Chichioya.
She left the hut, and walked as quickly, and silently as she could towards the well. But she wasn't as silent as she thought.
"And where are you going?" Inuyasha suddenly jumped down in front of her, making her jump.
"Don't do that!" She scolded, rubbing her heart, as if it still hurt.
"You didn't answer my question."
"I'm going home. Only for five days Inuyasha." She said quickly. Before sidestepping him, and bolting for the well.
But of course, with his super demon speed, he was in front of her again in seconds.
"Five days? No way!" He said, crossing his arms in front of his chest.
"Inuyasha! I have some tests I have to take, and I probably have a mountain of homework. So I'm going. Don't make me use the "S" word!" She was trying not to, she really didn't want to.
"No"
"Inuyasha! I've been here for two weeks! And we found another jewel shard! So why do you want to keep me here so bad! It's only five days!"
He contemplated for a minute, before saying.
"One day"
"Four days"
"Two days"
"Three days. final answer. Either take it, or I'll just forget it, and go for the full five." She said, also crossing her arms.
"Feh. fine, but be back by dawn!" He called, as she ran off towards the well. Hey, at least he didn't get sat.
But now he had to go without her for 3 days.
'Maybe I'll go see her tomorrow' He thought, as he jumped into the branches of Goshinboku.
