A/n: Woot! I got reviews! Okay! Well here is the next chapter for those wonderful people who reviewed. You know what I did these two really odd one-shots where Inuyasha dies…and I have never done that! I surprised myself cuz you see I am not the one to normally kill off Inu…no not me. But I did and I almost cried cuz I did such a nasty thing, but I didn't instead I posted my stories and got a few nice reviews…however most people yelled at me which I found entirely funny. Lock, stock and barrel! Woot, sorry I just needed to say that cuz my computer said a synonym for "Entirely" was Lock, stock, and barrel. Which I don't really understand, I mean aren't those the little brats form "The Nightmare before Christmas"? I love that movie…I need Kingdom Hearts 2 dammit…okay well on with the story I just like to randomly comment on stuff sometimes? Why because it takes up half a page…

Self Preservation

Chapter 5: Kagome's Revenge

Inuyasha's POV

I looked over to see Kagome sitting under a tree writing in a little purple book she called a "diary". She told me once that a diary was where a girl would write out what meant the most to her, but that is was also one of the most privet things in the world. I wanted to take it and read it, just to find out what she was saying about me, but then again I didn't want to be "sat" into oblivion for it so I kept to myself. Sango was with Kagome, as was Shippo; however Miroku was standing over my shoulder pestering me about what had happened between me and Kagome.

"Come now Inuyasha, we're both men." Miroku said with a sheepish smile.

I knew what he was thinking, and it was pissing me off. I couldn't believe he would ever think Kagome would do something like that!

"Would you drop it already Miroku…I'm telling you nothing happened we went to sleep that's all."

"Inuyasha, I know you're not telling the whole truth. If all you did was sleep then why was Kagome in nothing but the top to you're robe? Which might I add she still has on over her own clothing now."

I looked to Kagome and I could not help but smile, however I didn't let Miroku see. He was right though she was still wearing it. Most of the time she would give it back right away, but this time she kept it as if she felt safer having it.

"So, maybe she's cold…it's not like I need it right now anyways." I replied gruffly.

Kagome's POV

I shut my diary quickly and smiled up into the sun. Today was a good day. I looked over to wear Inuyasha sat with Miroku annoying him. More then likely asking about last night. I knew Inuyasha wasn't about to tell him what went on, however I had no problem telling Sango.

"Kagome what are you so happy about?" Shippo asked jumping on my shoulder.

"Oh nothing, it's just such a nice day." I replied and patted Shippo on the head.

Looking back up I saw Inuyahsa now clad in only his under shirt and red pants walk into Keade's hut with Miroku right behind him.

"I still can't believe that Inuyasha would do that Kagome." Sango said going over what I had already told her in her head.

"I know!" I replied with a smile and stood up.

I decided then I was going to walk over to Inuyasha and see if he would like to go do something other then sit around here all day. Walking over to them I heard him practically yelling at Miroku.

I stood to the side of one of the hut's windows just so I could hear what they were talking about.

"So Inuyasha, have you confessed that you love her?"

I knew he must had froze because it was a few moments before I heard his voice next.

"No."

I nodded, he hadn't exactly told me that. However, I know that if he meant what he did last night that he must of loved me right?

"No, I haven't admitted that because…because it would be lying."

I felt my stomach to a flip. He didn't just say that did he? I felt tears begin their descent down my face. I couldn't just stand here and wait for them to come and find me like this. I knew it was too good to be true. I quickly took the red kimono top off and tossed it to the ground before I took off back to the well.

Inuyasha's POV

"No, I haven't admitted that because…because it would be lying." I said to Miroku hoping to get him to drop the subject.

However, what I didn't realize was Kagome was standing just outside. I noticed her tears first, her sent mingled with salt. I heard something drop to the ground just before her hurried footsteps carried her away.

"I think someone heard you Inuyasha." Miroku said to me and I had to restrain from hitting him in the face.

I just glared at him and opened the door just in time to see Kagome running away into the forest. I looked down to the ground to find my robe sitting there where she had thrown it.

Idiot…

I knew I was one; I was the biggest idiot of all. Even Miroku was smarter then me, well at least when it came to women. Shippo probably had more experience with them as well. I shook my head and I went after her into the forest.

Kagome's POV

I ran, all I ever seem to do is run away. Whenever he would hurt me, I would just hightail it home. Was I really to weak to face him? I brought my hands up to my eyes to wipe away the tears that blinded me as I ran though the forest. I knew I must have passed the well a while ago…because I didn't recognize at all where I was. I stopped and looked around to just see trees, it was amazing after all that traveling I would still get lost in this forest, the place where it all started in the first place. I fell to my knees on the ground and let my tears run freely. It was even more surprising that I did not notice when Koga showed up behind me.

"Kagome," He said to me.

I looked up to be met with his blue eyes. I quickly wiped away all my tears and smiled. "Hi Koga."

"What are you doing out here? And crying did that Mutt treat you wrong again?"

I shook my head. "No, I just got a little upset and went for a walk, now I seem to be lost."

Koga offered me his hand and I took it with a smile. I didn't want to scare him off if he could get me out of this forest without me resorting to Inuyasha. I really didn't feel like seeing him at the moment.

"I can take you to my den if you would like." Koga said with a smile.

I shook my head. "No I should go back to the others, they'll worry about me."

I knew what he would want to do if we went to his den; he was still bent on making me his "woman" actually according to him I already was. I mean yes I liked Koga, as a friend. He was a very nice and considerate person. And maybe, if he was the one I met first I would be with him that way, but I couldn't…I just couldn't do that to Inuyasha, even if he said he didn't have feelings for me.

"Kagome!"

I looked behind me to the familiar voice that called out my name. I knew he would come looking for me. I stood up quickly and tried my best to make it seem like I wasn't just crying. I watched carefully as red came through the green of the bushes and Inuyasha was standing in front of Koga and I.

Inuyasha's POV

When I found Kagome she was standing with that wolf Koga. She was also very close to him.

"What are you doing here wolf?" I asked crudely.

"Taking care of my woman! Because you seem too ignorant to." He spat back at me.

I loathed him. He was so annoying. Always after my Kagome. Couldn't he tell that she didn't want him yet? Was he truly that dumb?

"Come on Kagome; let's get back to Kaede's hut. Shippo is whining for you again." I said hoping that would be the end of this little confrontation with Koga.

I heard her draw in a breath and I knew I must have said something wrong. What? I didn't know.

"You can't just order me around Inuyasha." Kagome called out.

"I'm not ordering you around –girl." I said to her, and I knew once again she was going to end up running off to her home, or at least that's what I thought.

"Oh so I'm just a 'Girl' to you now! Is that it? So because of that you think you can order me around like you're my father or something Inuyasha? I don't think so!" She yelled at me.

"You know what! I don't need to stand here and be belittled by you." She said and turned to Koga. "I'm ready…lets get out of here Koga."

Kagome's POV

I looked to Inuyasha after climbing on Koga's back, he looked like he was angry as well as sad at the same time. However, I could tell he was trying to hide it.

"FINE GO!" He yelled at me. "See if I care!"

I just shook my head and soon I was in a whirlwind. It was a little odd to travel this way. So I closed my eyes and when I re-opened them we were at his den. I looked out to the waterfall and I knew Inuyasha would be here before too long, all I had to do was sit and wait.

"So Kagome, what made you decide to come with me?" Koga asked as he sat next to me on the cliff overlooking the water.

"I needed a change of scenery."

Koga nodded and stayed silent. "So is there anything you need?"

I shook my head no. He must have thought I would be staying here. I hate to brake it to him, but my idea of a nice home is not a cave.

"Okay well you can just let me know."

I nodded and I looked into the sky, just as the sun began to set.

A/N Well that's that…anyways please read and review and I will update asap. Anyways I know I kinda just left you hanging there but that's what I do best, now remember to review if you wanna see Inuyasha's reaction!
