Chapter 16
The next morning Kagome lead Sango to the dining room to have some breakfast before leaving. They soon found out that they weren't the only ones with that idea.
Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru were fighting over God knows what. Miroku was eating while having a small conversation with Koga. Shippou and Rin were playing a game that seemed to be a mix of tag and dodge Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru. As soon as Rin and Shippou noticed that kagome and Sango had entered the room they got exited.
"Kagome!" Rin called running over to give her a hug.
"Kagome! Sango!" Shippou yelled giving them both a hug then both of them went back to playing their game.
When Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru heard Kagome's name being called they immediately stopped fighting and sat at the table as though nothing had happened. Miroku and Koga looked up and waved, said good morning to both of the girls (Koga was more exited to see Kagome, and Miroku was more exited to see Sango) and then they both went back to their conversation.
"Is it just me or is everyone adding a bit odd?" Kagome whispered to Sango.
"Oh my gosh, good I'm not the only one who noticed." Sango sighed.
"Did you notice that Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru both just stopped fighting? It seemed kind of sudden." Kagome mentioned.
"Yeah, has that ever happened before?"
"No, not that I've ever seen."
"Hmmm, what could be going on?" Sango wondered out loud.
"And normally Miroku would be all over you right now? I mean, he did seem a little happy to see you but not as happy as normal."
"I guess so, but Koga did the same thing. Do you think they might be planning something?" Sango asked suspiciously.
"I hope not." Kagome said "But let's worry about that in a second, I'm hungry!" Sango laughed at her friend's change of subject.
"Yeah, let's. I'm hungry also."
Sesshoumaru and Inuyasha both sat on either side of Kagome, giving each other deadly glares every so often. Miroku and Koga would whisper to each other and glance at Kagome and Sango.
"They are definitely up to something!" kagome whispered to Sango who had made Sesshoumaru move beside Inuyasha so she could sit beside her.
"Yeah, and I want to know what."
"Good, because I have an idea!" Kagome said and she started to explain the plan to Sango.
"She may be yours now Inuyasha but she will soon be mine." Sesshoumaru whispered.
"You wish! She loves me. She's not going to leave me." Inuyasha smirked confidently, secretly hiding his nervousness at the thought of Kagome leaving him.
"She may think she loves you but she will only see that true love is found when she is with me." Sesshoumaru challenged.
"Just think," Inuyasha said ignoring what Sesshoumaru had just said, "when Kagome and I are mated, she will be your sister!"
"If she agrees." Sesshoumaru mentioned. "Remember she has to agree first, and what makes you think that she will even accept anyways?"
"I don't know, but that kiss yesterday sure was promising." Inuyasha bragged, he was almost forgetting how embarrassed he would be in any other situation, or if this would ever be brought up again. Sesshoumaru just brought out the worst in him.
"Are you sure, because she looks like at the present moment she is rather close to that wolf demon." Sesshoumaru said adding silently in his head 'And that wolf is going to die soon.'
Inuyasha looked over and sure enough Kagome was fairly close to Koga. His jaw dropped when he saw her sway her hips in a sexy way making actual drool come out of Koga's mouth. She did however notice Inuyasha's stare and she gave him a wink, hoping that he would understand that it wasn't for real. Inuyasha, luckily, understood somehow what Kagome was telling him and turned to Sesshoumaru and smirked.
"She's trying to get something out of him." He said.
"So you are not going to do anything about her behavior?" Sesshoumaru asked in monotone. But he was annoyed that Inuyasha wasn't stopping Kagome's behavior.
"Nope." Inuyasha said hoping he sounded laid back and uncaring while on the inside he was ready to tear Koga to pieces.
Kagome was very closer to Koga batting her eyelashes "So what were you and Miroku talking about?" She asked seductively.
"N..Nothing." He stuttered.
"Really?" She asked, she was about to say something else but Sango went over and whispered something in her ear making her grin and back away off of Koga as though she were burned. "Ok Koga, never mind." She said sweetly.
Kagome went and took her seat next to Inuyasha and Sango took her seat next to Kagome.
"So did you get what you needed?" Inuyasha asked, he had to act smug because he didn't even want to know what Sesshoumaru would say if he didn't.
"Yep." Kagome chirped happily.
"What DID you need anyways?" he asked
"We wanted to know what they were talking about." Sango said simply, as though it was the most common thing in the world.
"And…" Inuyasha let his question hang.
"I don't know yet. Sango got it out of Miroku first." Kagome pouted "So Sango! Dish!"
"Well" Sango blushed "They were thinking of ways to make us fall in love with them."
"Oh gosh, that again?" Kagome sighed shaking her head.
"Again?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yeah, Miroku and Koga make plans about capturing out attention and making us fall in love with them all the time." Sango sighed "Normally not together though."
"But why Koga tough?" Inuyasha wondered out loud. Weren't he and Miroku the friends, not Miroku and Koga? Why did Koga like trying to take everything important to him? Soon he would be trying to take Sango and Kirara away. Then maybe even Shippou! Of course Shippou would be returned after Koga found out what he was like but still…
"He tried to talk with you about it Inuyasha." Sango said. "But you kept denying that you loved kagome and now everyone including Kagome knows you love her. He doesn't have anyone else to talk to about that kind of stuff."
"Yeah, and everyone is going to always know that I love Kagome because that's not going to change!" Inuyasha insisted.
"Of course, and my love for you isn't going to change either." Kagome said "But remember, I love the half demon Inuyasha." She reminded, "I want you to stay the half demon Inuyasha."
"I guess I could do that." Inuyasha grinned making Kagome and Sango giggle with delight. Miroku and Sango heard the giggles and saw that it was, in fact, Inuyasha who was the cause of it.
"What's Inuyasha playing at!" Koga growled "Can't he stick to one woman?"
"I'm sure it's nothing." Miroku said, "Inuyasha knows how much I care about Sango and he loves Kagome. He isn't going for more then her."
"I don't know, that mutt-face is capable of anything." Koga growled.
"That 'mutt-face' as you call him is my best friend! He wouldn't try to steal Sango! The woman that I love from me!" Miroku cried out louder then intended because the room went silent. Sango had a look of shock on her face, but also a heavy blush. While Kagome was giggling not quietly enough.
"See Sango! I told you he feels the same about you!" Kagome said after she calmed her giggles. After a long pause Koga burst into laugher for some unknown reason. Sesshoumaru was watching everything that was happening with interest while eating bacon.
"Wow, Miroku. I was wondering when you were going to announce that! But I always expected Sango to know before everyone else…not at the same time." Inuyasha joked. Miroku and Sango turned cherry red and Sango ran from the room, not knowing what else to do. Miroku looked hurt and confused so Kagome decided to give him some advice.
"Go after her! Console her! She needs you right now Miroku. Go now or else I'll get someone to force you to!"
"Oh right!" Miroku said as he stumbled out of the room.
"I see you've stopped laughing Koga." Kagome said coolly. "What was so funny anyways?"
"I had mental image of Sesshoumaru dancing around singing about how he was a little girl!" Koga burst out laughing again. In a gust of wind the laughing stopped and Koga could be found on the floor twitching and Sesshoumaru could be found near where he lay.
"Wow, it looks like Sesshoumaru could beat him in a race even without jewel shards." Kagome teased quietly with Inuyasha, who wasn't sure, whether to laugh cause it was true or get angry because it was a compliment to Sesshoumaru. He ended up settling for grinning.
"And how, might I ask, do you know that I do not possess any jewel shards?" Sesshoumaru asked, randomly hoping to confuse someone.
"I have my ways." Kagome said
"How many does the wolf demon have?" he asked.
"Two." Kagome answered without even looking at Koga.
"I told you, I have my ways."
"Don't' be so modest my soon to be mate! You can see and sense jewel shards! That is one of the reasons why I am so in love with you." Koga said before being knocked out by Inuyasha for calling Kagome his soon to be mate.
"Oh my gosh, I never thought I would say this but thank you so much Inuyasha. I don't think I could be able to stand seeing him cower on the floor like that for much longer. Honestly, I don't even do that when I get scared or hurt! He should at least be stronger then me, he is the wolf pack leader." Kagome scolded the unconscious body.
"You get hurt?" Sesshoumaru asked, glaring at Inuyasha so Kagome wouldn't see.
"Not very often. Just every so often. Everyone does, or they're not working hard enough, right?" Kagome laughed lightly. Sesshoumaru, who was still glaring at Inuyasha, didn't answer. "So…" Kagome said uncomfortably. She didn't like how no one answered her. "How long are you two going to be glaring at each other? Because if it's going to be a while I'm going to see how Sango is." Kagome said when she got tired of the silence. Both demons (or half demon) gave a look of surprise when they found out that Kagome had known about their glaring when they had tried to make it so she wouldn't notice. "Yes, oh my gosh, how dumb do you think I am? It's so obvious that you are glaring at each other." Kagome sighed. Inuyasha suddenly waved his hand, signaling for Kagome to go away, without breaking the glare with Sesshoumaru.
"FINE!" Kagome cried, feeling insulted that they would rather have a glaring contest then talk to her.
