A/N: Also much dialogue in this one, too.But not as much!

Kagome, her cousins, and Inuyasha, sat in her room. Kiki went fast asleep, since they put the sleeping bags on the floor. Now there wasn't any space on the floor for Inuyasha. So he was going to either sleep NEXT to Kagome, or sit at the foot of her bed (I think we all know what they'll decide…).

Since it was only seven, and the sleepiness Kagome had experienced earlier vanished, Suki had thought of the perfect game to play to pass the time. Until nine, when they had to set Kagome's alarm for four A.M. again. The game… Truth or Dare!

Kagome and Zoey were weary at first, but agreed. Inuyasha and Michi both chose to stay out of it. So it was only Zoey, Kagome, and Suki who were going to play. You know, even though Michi and Inuyasha didn't get along, their minds worked pretty much the same.

Kagome sat on her bed, leaning against the wall that her bed was against, and sighed. She dreaded 'dare'. She always chose 'truth', because sometimes the dares were a little out of control. Kagome pondered on who should have gone first. And she got the idea. Youngest goes first. Kagome told them, so Suki was first, naturally.

Now, Suki was eleven, sure. But not dumb or naïve. Oh, no… She had a few ideas. She knew her cousin well. She knew Kagome didn't do dares, so she got the perfect 'truth' idea. Suki smirked. Well, it wasn't quite a smirk, but then again, it wasn't quite a smile either. Half smirk, and half grin. A weird look, and Suki was looking straight at Kagome. It was just plain down-right scary!

"Kagome," Suki started, a smark of enjoyment flashed in her eyes as she spoke, "truth or dare?"

If dare… Kagome thought, Only Buddha knows… Kagome gulped. "…Truth…"

"Good, good…" Suki said, mumbling to herself. Which seemed to have made her look quite mental. Or at least bipolar! Suki grinned towards Kagome. Kagome hated that look so much! "Now, Hano said he is a hanyou. How'd you meet up with a hanyou in this day of age?" Suki asked.

"Yes, I've wanted to know that, too." Zoey agreed.

"Yeah, me, also." Michi nodded.

Well, it was Kagome's family. Should she tell them? Maybe just a quick detail of how she met him… But would they keep quiet? She could trust Hano, and her immediate family, but her cousins? Kagome pondered at the thought for a moment, until she felt a common gaze upon her. It was Inuyasha's glare. Kagome looked at him, and he slightly nodded, knowing what she was contemplating over.

"Oh… Um, the dried well, the Bone-Eater's Well. I fell down it, and met him." Kagome pointed towards Inuyasha, who was now really glaring her down.

"So now I'm 'him'?" Inuyasha growled.

"Don't take advantage of freedom, Inuyasha." Kagome simply retorted.

"Um… Your turn, Kagome." Suki reminded her. Kagome returned to the game and nodded.

Kagome looked back and forth from Suki and Zoey. Who should she pick? Should she get revenge for just revealing the most secretive thing she ever held in, or torment her younger gothic cousin? Kagome looked back at Zoey, and saw her glance towards Inuyasha. Kagome then easily picked who she was going to torment now.

The glance was the fifth time since they've entered Kagome's room at six fifty P.M., so naturally, Kagome just HAD to know why Zoey was so intent on watching Inuyasha. Kagome smiled towards Zoey. "Zoey."

"Truth." Zoey said bluntly.

Kagome giggled, seeing Zoey take an other quick glance towards Inuyasha. She was down right nosy now! She just needed to know to sleep peacefully tonight. "Why do you keep on looking at Inuyasha?" Kagome asked.

Zoey blinked, and smirked, "What? Are you afraid I'll snatch away your love? Ha. Why are you concerned anyway?" Zoey asked.

"Knew it." Kagome laughed.

"Knew what?" Inuyasha asked.

"If you don't understand," Michi said, "Then you shouldn't." He said, laying down. Inuyasha growled at him and clenched his fists. Kagome sweat dropped. Since now, Michi was about to sleep, she had to calm Inuyasha down. So she kissed his cheek.

"Hush, will you?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha, turning a slight red, folded his arms and nodded.

Zoey's turn. Who shall she pick? Kagome? Yes… I won't look intimidating, so she'll pick dare. Ha ha ha… Zoey thought. "Kagome. Truth or dare?" Zoey asked, looking lifeless.

Kagome thought good and hard on this one. This was Zoey, the fun-sucking thirteen year-old. So nothing really bad should come from her dares. It her truths Kagome was worried about. Kagome decided on it. Dare. "Dare." Kagome said, not scared.

"I know you write much, like daily, in your diary. Read us the entry that you wrote the first time you returned home." Zoey smirked.

"From the Sengoku Jidai?" Kagome asked bluntly.

"Of course!" Suki giggled.

Kagome reluctantly rolled off of her bed and stepped over her two dead asleep cousins to her desk. She slid open the drawer, and pulled out a small purple book, and managed to get passed her cousins again and sat down on her bed.

Kagome began reading…

April 19th, 1997

Dear Daiari-chan,

I just came back through the dried well! What a nightmare I just faced… I hated Mistress Centipede, and Inuyasha isn't very nice… Ha, I mean, he could be not so… Well, evil! But there's good there, I just have to search for it. If I ever return there. Gramps said his seals will work, but never trust him on that. Inuyasha is cute, more like handsome. And his dog ears…! Just to die for. I secretly rubbed them before getting tied up by villagers. Ja ne!

Kagome closed the book. She now had to be weary on Zoey, too. There are thoughts that just are too mean… Like what Zoey just did, for one!

The night passed quickly, and they all grew tired. After everyone fell asleep, Kagome told Inuyasha he could sleep next to her. He agreed and laid down beside her. Kagome lay in front of him, his arm on her waist. It felt secure, and warm. Kagome felt his breath on her neck, and that's the last thing she remembers before going to sleep.
