Disclaimer: Yes, its true. I do not eat mushrooms. I don't eat Inuyasha either. He belong soley to Rumiko Takahashi for eating.

A/N: Lol, yes. I will update. Finally.

The next chapter is just a short little chapter to keep you feeling fuzzy inside. And maybe a bit of fluff. But if the readers don't like it, i will remove it. The next chapter will move back on to the story.

also a chapter to prove that indeed, i am not dead.

anyway,
potato, anyone?

Free box of chocolate to anyone that doesn't rip apart me apart for not updating!

When we left off on the last aggravating chapter:

She noticed she was the only voice speaking.

Then Rin's wavering voice broke the silence.

"Kagome...the lights are all on."

The new and latest aggravating chapter:

"...Eeeeee..." A voice squeaked into the night. Pathetic, and whimpering. "...Nuuuuu..." Interrupted by a hacking cough, she continued. Yaaaaaaaa..." She finished and closed her eyes and waited.

Nothing.

And then the still figure on the bed took a deep breath, "INUUUUYAAAASHAAAAA!" She squealed into the darkness. And then let out a piercing squeal.

The figure on the ground fell over, slightly dead for a second, and then blinked, slowly registering where he was.

"INUUUUUUUYAAAAAAAASHAAAAAAAA!"

He could feel a headache coming on. Inuyasha checked the clock by his feet, shaking his headful of hair and rubbing his eyes glumly. It was four am in the morning and he was damn tired.

He smirked, he'd let her scream.

"AUNNNNTIIIIIE RIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIN-----"

Shit. She was calling for backup.

Inuyasha jumped onto his feet and walked over to Kagome, who was turning beet red in the face due to lack of oxygen, and clamped a hand over her mouth.

She continued to scream into his hand, muffled, but still loud enough to blind a dead deer. He winced, and pinched her ass, to where he earned a resounding slap.

"Sorry" Inuyasha smiled and patted Kagome gently on the head. "Now what do you want?"

Kagome rasped, "Waa---"

"Okay, stop acting cute. What do you want?"

Kagome stopped and glared at him angrily. "water."

Inuyasha stood up and Kagome fell back onto the bed with a thud. "You could've just said." He smirked as he poured Kagome a cup of water from the sink and brought it to her. He watched her as she carefully looked across the surface to check for poison before slowly begin sipping hesitantly.

As if answering his questions, she replied. "I wouldn't put it against you to feed me something toxic."

"I wouldn't put it against myself either." Inuyasha mumbled under his breath.

Kagome looked up at him in the dark. "I'm sorry, what's that?"

"Nothing."

"Oh." Kagome looked distracted as she stared at Inuyasha.

"What!" Inuyasha said worriedly.

"Oh, nothing." Kagome turned back, a bit distracted."

"No, really. What is it?"

"Inuyasha...?" Kagome began hesitantly. "Will you h-h-hold me---"

"What?"

"Oh." She slurped and drank the rest of the cup down. Then she handed the cup to Inuyasha who, in turn handed her a napkin to wipe her mouth. "T-T-Thanks." She said, weakly.

"What did you say?"

"Nothing."

Inuyasha just smirked at her as she fell back asleep, watching Kagome as the few wisps of her hair drifted across her forehead and settled and drifted with the wind.

For a rare moment, Inuyasha was completely speechless as he tucked Kagome in and went to rinse te cup.

When he came back, he watched Kagome for a few more moments before resting his tired and sleepy head on the pillow beside Kagome's head.

I'll always be here, Kagome.

When he was sure that Kagome was asleep, Inuyasha leaned over and tucked one arm around Kagome. Giving her a light squeeze as he drifted off into oblivion.

The room was quiet as the last few wisps of moonshine fell through the crack in the open window and the happily sound of sleep filled the room;

Kagome smiled, happy with herself.

-

A/N A cutesy, fluffy chapter to keep you filled with happiness and golden rainbows. I'll get to the real story in the next chapter. :3

Haha, told you I wouldn't make Kagome blind.
