Chapter seven: Music box, my music box

The sun peaked over the treetops and pulled and Inuyasha's eyelids, he groaned. He didn't want to get up he was having the best dream of himself, Kagome and a mountain of ramen. Oh what a dream, climbing to the top of mount ramen and then camping out at the summit eating the noodles till he got fat, a there would be Kagome's glowing face to greet him after every bite it was just the best, perfect. He slightly opened his one eye seeing a figure by a blob of red and orange shaking something, he groaned again then rubbed his eyes with his arm. The dew was still fresh on his body and he could feel the refreshing coldness of it as he sat up, Kagome wasn't beside him anymore and the second blanket fell off his top half and clumped at his waist. His arm held his weight as he looked over at the fire, Kagome was there shaking a small pan "morning sunshine" she said as she looked over at him

He groaned once more as a response and laid back down pulling the covers over his head "hey get up we need to get back, Sota has some stuff for us to do today"

Inuyasha sat up "what kind of stuff?"

"You know…farm stuff" she giggled and stood up with the pan in her hands then walked over to the horses and Inuyasha watched as she fed the almost oatmeal sludge to them

He mentally gagged but hey the horses liked it "where's my breakfast?" he asked trying to keep his mind off of last night, he didn't want things to get awkward

Kagome turned her head back to him but kept the pan in front of the horses "well you see since you didn't carry me on your back for three hours…" 'Wouldn't mind that' Inuyasha's mind cut in "then you don't get any" she finished

"Awwww common you know you wanna feed me" he stood up and walked over to her letting his arms circle Kagome's waist, screw not wanting it to be awkward

She tensed and turned around not realizing she still had the pan in her hands and the sludge sprayed all over Inuyasha's face and shoulders. Kagome tried not to laugh and there she was frozen in place in Inuyasha's arms as Jakosu licked his face, oh what a fairytale. After yelling at the horses to stop licking his face Kagome suggested he clean off with the water from the lake. He walked over knelled down in front of the lake and cupped his hands. As he was cleaning off Kagome's mind laughed sinisterly, she was thinking up something and before she knew it she was standing behind Inuyasha ready to push him in. Inuyasha knew Kagome was there and in the blink of an eye he grabbed her wrist and hurled her into the crystal-watered lake. The water was cold, so cold she didn't remember the icy water on her tan skin and she instantly felt her body being dragged to the bottom, she screamed but the icy water filled her mouth before the sound could come up. Inuyasha smirked at his trick, he waited for a second and when she didn't pop up for air and yell at him he was concerned, her dark hair was like and inky cloud from land and he could tell after looking at her for a moment things were wrong. He dived into the water headfirst and then his skin came in contact with the water his lungs contracted and his skin stung but he was going to make sure she was safe, which she obviously wasn't, before he would go up for air. The outside world didn't know what was happening, it was silent, she was silent that was until everything was disturbed when a splash and Inuyasha coughing for air with Kagome clutched in his arms coughing for air more than Inuyasha was. He swam to the side letting Kagome climb up first then he did gripping as many blades of grass as he could panting for air "Kagome I'm so sorry" he said between gasp of air

Kagome coughed and smiled weakly "it was my fault…I was going to push you in" she said between coughs it was hard for her to breathe when the water spurted out of her lungs

He rolled to face her "yeah your right you were going to push me in its your fault, lets get back" he stood up and grabbed Kagome's hand.

"Inu, can you carry me?" she asked in the weakest voice possible

Inuyasha looked down at the 24 year old "yeah I will" he smirked and picked her up bridal style and carried her to Hiten who was a ready to travel back since Kagome had gotten the horses ready earlier. He slid her carefully on her horse "Do you want me to help you?" he asked looking up at her

She smiled weakly as her teeth chattered "I'm fine just a little cold" but before she could protest Inuyasha had jumped on behind her, which Hiten didn't like but he knew he was only helping Kagome out so he didn't buck him off like he would normally to someone. Kagome tensed as he wrapped his arms around her and grabbed the reigns he flicked them to make Hiten go. He had tied Jakosu to Hiten's saddle like something you'd see in a western movie, except this time Inuyasha was the outlawed, charming and oddly clean cowboy. They rode into the woods only stopping to adjust his position in the back of the saddle. Kagome made him stop "here this will be better" she shifted so she was sitting on his lap with her legs around his waist and he was right in the saddle.

He tried his hardest to keep himself sane when Kagome laid her cold head on his chest, she was warming up to him and well he didn't hate it although it made him seriously decide to take a cold shower after they got back.

The day was early and the sun hadn't hit its peak when they reached the stables, and when they did Inuyasha slowly slid off keeping the still cold Kagome close to him and letting the horses into the gated area to run around and graze till Sota would come and put them back. Once he closed the gate he picked Kagome up again bridal style and walked into the house, he was cold to since his clothes were still wet, but Kagome, she was shivering like a cockatoo in an ice freezer. He quickly rushed her into the bathroom and poured her a hot bath as she stood outside the door "here Kags" he lead her to the tub and left the room to give her privacy. He quickly pulled off his shirt without realizing he was still in Kagome's room and when Sota stopped in front of the door to glare at him he instantly went into defense mode "I didn't do anything!" he raised his arms

Sota charged into the room "where is she?"

"Washroom, taking a bath we just got back from camping" he said backing up from Sota

"Fine but if you did anything" he made a slicing noise and ran a finger over his throat

Inuyasha gulped; no doubt he would actually do it "truly noted" he said before Sota walked out of the room possibly back to his chores Inuyasha sighed and walked across the hall to his room…he left Kagome to herself for a while.

Kagome laid in the tub, her shivering had stopped and her body was starting to get colour back, a long day so far but she had almost drowned in that lake before but her father had saved her, that's what she loved about being home she knew that she dad would be there to save her but now he couldn't was wasn't there, he wouldn't save her from anything, he wouldn't tell her its alright when everything was wrong. But oddly that spot in her heart that had died with her dad was filling with Inuyasha, did she like him, love him, no they had any known each other for what a week and a half, two weeks? She couldn't be falling in love, there was always a barrier around herself to keep people away and Inuyasha had broken through that and was now slowly moving to her heart. She shook her head to rid her of the thoughts and stood up, dried herself off and walked into her room picking out a pair of blue jeans, and a brown and green button up cowgirl top and her boots then stepped out into the hall. After seeing Inuyasha's door closed she ventured into the room that she didn't want to go in, her fathers business room. The door was weathered since he had to have the door from his old ranch before he had gotten this one built, it was red a contrast to all the earthy stuff in the house but it was always Kagome's favorite place to sit, just in front of it even when her dad was working she would sit in front of it till he came out and they both went a rode the horses but that was before he had gotten cancer. The door squeaked when it opened and her feet seemed to walk in on there own accord, it was cold, dead, gone of all life. It was smaller than she remembered, the old floors where scuffed and dust had collected over everything. A black cowboy hat was hanging on the back of her father's old computer chair and she knew her mother had put it there a long time ago. Her hands ran over the various trophies and ribbons that sat neatly on a shelf behind his desk, some of them were hers and some Sota's and a couple of her fathers for riding bulls. He had always won his rides, even if her would come out of it with a dislocated arm or something sprained it would win. A small purple box sat on the corner of her father's wooden desk; she remembered it like she had seen the box yesterday. She dusted it off and opened it, a small girlish figure spun around slowly as it played a song, it was a music boy, her music box he had given her for her 16th birthday. A picture of her Hiten and her father stared back at her, mocking her happiness, reminding her of her dad back when he was alive. Tears formed in her eyes, she never cried at his funeral, through her speech only one tear fell and it was all she had done since he had passed. A step by the door started the fragile girl, she gasped and looked up at Inuyasha standing at the door "hey, you okay" he walked over to her and her tear filled eyes. She didn't want to cry but she did, and Inuyasha's arms where there to keep her up, keep her stable. He soothed her with quiet words, he had been the same a long time ago when his mother died, but that was another story…
