I don't own Inuyasha and Co. Though I wish did. Plz RxR. The gibbous moon is a type of moon faze. It comes just after the new moon. Sry 4got to mention that in the A.N. of the last chapter.

"Talking"
'Thinking' There is no mind speaking in this chapter just thinking.

Loves Slave Chapter Six:
Who We Really Are:

It's a beautiful Saturday afternoon, the birds are chirping and girls could be heard giggling through out the Higurashi house hold. Inuyasha had been forced out of the room as soon as he had woken up and was now sitting on the couch, pouting with nothing else to do but listen to the giddy girls giggle.
Tired of listening to the giddy girls Inuyasha pushed himself off the couch and made his way to the kitchen where Kokoro was making lunch.

"Bored dear?" Kokoro said having herd him enter.

"Mhm." Inuyasha nodded.

"Would you like to talk?"

"Sure."
"Is there anything specific you wanted to talk about?" Kokoro asked while cutting up some vegetables.
"N...Actually hai. Why were you taking pictures of Kag and I my first day?"

"Hmm, so you had awoken then...well have u ever herd of the 'Rebel'?"

"Hai. Isn't it a prophecy?"
"Yup. You see I believe Kagome is the girl in the prophecy. She just don't know it yet. So I was taking pictures because she wont be my little girl much longer. No, then she'll be the savior of all youkai and hanyou alike."

"Wait a second. Isn't the girl in the prophecy meant to fall in love with her first youkai companion?"
"Yup. But I don't think I'll spoil the surprise just yet."

"Hmm? What do you mean? What surprise?"

"Nothing." Kokoro said innocently while placing the vegetables in the boiling water and moving to sit across from Inuyasha at the breakfast table.
"So Inuyasha. How do you like it here so far?"

"Its wonderful here. Kag and you are great though I think I've upset the Miles fellow."

"You haven't upset him he's just jealous. He has this odd infatuation with Kagome and well you get the picture."
"If he's infatuated with her why do you keep him around?"

"He's good help and positively harmless."

"But...But he lusts for Kagome." Inuyasha said in disgust.

"Well now with you here to protect her we dont have to worry about that now do we?" Kokoro said smugly.
Inuyasha nodded and sighed.

"Is it me or have the giddy girls stopped giggling?" Inuyasha asked.

"I think they have."

With the Girls

"He did?" Kagome asked hugging her pillow sitting indian style against the back bored of her bed.

"He did." Sango confirmed sitting in the same position against the head bored.
Both girls sat there silent for a minute before both busted out laughing.

"Kagome, I have a problem." Sango said getting serious.

"What is it?"

"I...uh...I..."
"Oh for Kami sake just spit it out already." Kagome chuckled.

"I...Think I like Miroku." Sango whispered a blush creeping onto her face.

"So, how it that a problem?"

"How is it not a problem?"
"Im serious. Its not that bad. He's kind, sincere, and understanding. The worst thing about him is his groping habits and hentai thoughts."

":Sigh: Your right 'Gome. Thanks"
"No problem."

"Gome what was with Inuyasha and you last night?"

Kagome blushed remembering how Inuyasha had once again ended up sleeping in her bed with her.

"I donno Sango." Kagome said truthfully unaware of Inuyashas' presence.

"Well...Do you like him?"

"Well..uh...:Squeak: hmm, what was that?" Kagome asked looking toward her door.

'Chikuso, now I'll have to let them know I'm here. :sigh: I was so close' Inuyasha thought bitterly cursing himself for leaning toward the door, even though it had only been to make sure he herd her reply. Standing up Inuyasha knocked on the door.

"Kagome, your mom says lunch is almost ready!" Inuyasha shouted through the door.

"Ok. Thanks Inu! We'll be down in a minute!" Kagome shouted back.

"M'kay." Inuyasha said through the door before walking back down to the kitchen, still cursing himself silently.

The girls entered the kitchen and were hit with the delicious smell of stew. Sitting at the table across from Inuyasha with there bowls they began to eat. Small talk was made but none of it interesting. Once the girls finished they sat there pondering what to do.

"Should we take a swim? Sango asked.

"Well those aren't fun unless its near sundown and after. At least when it comes to the indoor pool. Its too cold to swim outside thought." Kagome answered. "How about we walk in the woods?"

"Hmm, sounds good to me."

"What do you thing Inu?"
Inuyashas' ears perked up hearing his name.

"Why?"

"Don't you wanna do something with us? Do you wanna be excluded the whole weekend?" Kagome asked.

"Hai, I wanna be included. Walking in the forest sounds good to me." Inuyasha said quickly causing the girls to giggle at him.

"Ok walk it is then...Momma were gonna take a walk in the woods."

"Ok dear be back before too late and make sure to put jackets on just incase."

"Ok momma." Kagome shouted back as they walked out the door all three of them having already put on jackets.
The trio walked through the forest for hours, talking, messing around, and having fun.

The Next New Moon

Inuyasha sat on the floor across from Kagomes bed. She still didn't know about his 'other' form. He had stayed gone all day until after the 'change' making sure she was asleep before entering her room. Sighing Inuyasha brought himself out of his thoughts and brought his eyes to up to look over Kagome as she slept. One minute she looked calm but the next she was thrashing around on her bed. Within seconds Inuyasha was at her side shaking her awake

"Kagome! Kagome! Wake up!" Inuyasha shouted concerned, still shaking her. Finally she awoke with start shooting up like the bed burned when she touched it. Breathing deep shallow breaths that didnt seem to be getting to her lungs, her eyes wide and fear swimming in her silver tinted blue orbs.

"Kagome are you ok?" Inuyasha asked still holding her shoulders.

It took a few moments before she seemed to realize she was awake and that Inuyasha was holding her shoulders.

"Inuyasha..." Kagome whispered.

With a smile Inuyasha embraced her tightly.

"Kagome are you ok?" He whispered his chin resting on her head.

"Hai, it was just a nightmare." She answered pulling away slightly. "What happened to you? Are you human on the night of the new moon?"

Inuyasha was surprised she new about hanyou's and there human nights.

"Hai, how do you know?"

"I have my ways." She said with a smile which Inuyasha returned.

"What was your nightmare about?"

":Sigh: It was really odd. Right now its all a haze its really hard to remember."

Inuyasha nodded as he brought her back into the embrace. Hearing her yawn Inuyasha pulled back slightly.

"You should get back to sleep."

"I'll never be able to get to sleep now. I can never sleep after my nightmares."

Laying her down Inuyasha crawled up with her wrapping his arms around her waist and brining her closer. She turned so she was facing him.

"Are these nightmares regular?" He asked looking into her eyes.

"Mhm" Kagome nodded. "But they only happen on the new moon and its normally the same one every time."

Inuyashas eyed widened slightly. 'Inochi'

After a second he calmed down and looked into her eyes again. Smiling he brought a hand up to stroke her face. 'So I got my wish. I don't have to feel bad about feeling this way for Kagome, They are one and the same.' He thought as he left a chaste kiss on her forehead.
