The Rainy Night

Chapter 1: The Kiss

"Kagome!" InuYasha called out as she ran off into the darkness. He started to run after her but thought 'why am I always chasing after this woman? If she wants to run off then good for her.' He turned around and walked back to Lady Kaede's hut.

'That stupid asshole, he's always picking fights with me' she thought while running to the Bone-Eaters well. She stopped and looked into it 'It's all the stupid well's fault… why am I blaming anything on the well? Fine it's all InuYasha's fault.' She jumped into the well without hesitation and on going up the latter got a splinter. 'Is the world out to get me today?' she asked herself. She ran into her room and didn't bother talking to her mother she knew her mom would try to help but wouldn't really understand. She never had to deal with any youkais or hanyous did she? 'Maybe I should just go to school tomorrow for once…' she thought then she slapped herself because there wasn't any school it was April vacation.

(I don't know if she gets April vacation but I guess she does in my story)

She went to sleep even though it was only five o'clock at night but she was really tired.

Sota decided to play evil little brother for once and went into her room as she was fell asleep but then saw her face. Her face looked as though it was in fear. She was having a nightmare so Sota woke her up she almost screamed but then saw it was only Sota so she told him all about her dream.

"I was with InuYasha. He was all fine and dandy then I said look its Sango and Miroku and he turned towards me and started to rake his claws against my arms. He had turned into a full-demon just because I said it was Sango and Miroku!" She said very quickly, "he almost killed me but then you woke me up, thanks little bro."

Sota contemplated telling her why he had been in her room in the first place but decided against that and said, "It's OK sis I'll always be here for ya. But why would InuYasha want to kill you? He really likes you… or at least that's what it looks like." Kagome's mouth dropped open but she shook her head, "No he just sees me as the jewel detector he wouldn't really like me. We fight to often and most of the time it's his fault."

"I think you both start it" Sota said than ran out of the room thinking that Kagome was going to start chasing him. However Kagome sat on her bed thinking about who started most of their fights her or InuYasha?

Inuyasha was at that time thinking about the same thing but also wondering if he should go back to Kagome and apologize. He was still thinking when Kagome shouted up, "Hey InuYasha can you help me get out?"

"Whoa, uh sure" he jumped down into the well swept Kagome out and carried her bride style to Lady Kaede's village. "InuYasha I can walk you know. So can you put me down?" She laughed at the sight of InuYasha's reddening face.

InuYasha put her down then said, "Come here I have something to show you." Kagome thought about not following him but decided to follow him out of pure curiosity. 'Why am I following him? We just had a fight yesterday.' Kagome thought. On the way she noticed that they were heading towards Lady Kaede's hut.

She started to wonder what InuYasha did this time. When they got to the hut InuYasha made the shhhhh face. He opened the door and Kagome tried to suppress a giggle but it didn't work and Miroku looked up from his kiss with Sango when he heard the giggle.

"Uhhhh Kagome your back." He said blushing ten shades red. Kagome was still laughing when InuYasha said, "I told you not to laugh or say anything." "I'm sorry I was so surprised that I couldn't help it." Sango and Miroku were both blushing and when Kagome saw that Miroku, of all people, was blushing she had to laugh even harder.

"Hey Kagome will you come with me for a minute?" InuYasha asked with a slight tug on her wrist. Kagome fake-pouted but followed InuYasha anyway.

"So what did you want?" She asked still slightly chuckling because of Sango and Miroku. "I'm sorry about what I did yesterday. And I was wondering if…" InuYasha seemed to be at a loss for words for once Kagome helped him by saying "You were wondering if what?"

Inuyasha took a deep breath then said, "If you…" It started raining just a she was about to say what he wanted to say. He was still at so much of a loss of words that he just took Kagome's head and tilted it so it was looking into her eyes. She saw something in his eyes that she had never seen before.

He kissed her with such hesitation and tenderness that InuYasha's loss of words was said in that one brief second. He pulled away from her and said, "Sorry…" but was cut off, as Kagome stood on tiptoe's to reach InuYasha's lips and she then kissed him back with as much force as she could muster.

InuYasha picked her up then brought her to Lady Kaede's hut. On their way Kagome was thinking 'How will this work?' InuYasha was thinking 'Can I always protect her from danger?' he said, "Kagome, no-one must know about the way we feel for each other. OK?" Kagome questioned, "Why, InuYasha? Why can't we let anyone know that we love each other? Is it that you think people will think that you are weak?" "No, If Naraku knew he could use you against me and then both of us would most likely be killed or hurt."

"Oh OK I thought you were afraid that people…" she couldn't finish what she was going to say because at that moment a cat-demon jumped out at InuYasha. He made a swift kill of it with one sweep of his Tetsusaiga. The demon burst apart and InuYasha saw a look in Kagome's eyes that he had never seen before was it fear, admiration, or maybe even hatred. 'Why would there be hatred in Kagome's eyes…is it because of me?' He thought. "Hey InuYasha, anyone in there?" Kagome said while tapping his forehead gently.

"Kagome! Stop it, that…well I really don't know what that is, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha" InuYasha said but ended up laughing uncontrollably. "That would be "Stop it Kagome, that tickles." Get it?" She said suppressing a laugh. "Oh ha, ha, ha, stop please…" InuYasha barely said because he was laughing so hard.

Kagome giggled at that, never-the-less she said, "OK, InuYasha ruin my fun then." She faked a pout then InuYasha asked concerned, "Are you alright?" She laughed at that and said between giggles, "Uh-huh I was faking."

InuYasha smiled sheepishly and said defiantly, "I knew that I was just…trying to be funny. So there I win." "Win what, InuYasha? I don't understand." She asked acting stupid to fool him.

"Hi guys where were you? Miroku and I have been looking all over for you." Sango said missing InuYasha and Kagome's kiss earlier.

"No-where," Kagome and InuYasha both said. As they said this Sango had turned around so she didn't see them blushing. Sango started to walk back towards Lady Kaede's Hut so InuYasha and Kagome followed her.

Back at the hut Miroku was still blushing so he sat apart from everyone else. Kagome and Sango both noticed this so they went to sit with him but when he saw them coming he started to walk away. "Hey, Miroku where are you going?" InuYasha asked in one of those ah-I-don't-care-but I'll-ask-anyway voices.

"Uhhhh nowhere…" He answered and started to walk back towards Kagome and Sango.
