Chapter Five: Cat's Tails

Brilliant fragments of silver moonlight seeping through the blinds in her bedroom, Kagome rolls over as the pale light shines upon her peaceful sleeping features. Feeling the sudden shift in movement, Inuyasha who had fallen asleep on the ebony haired teen's mid-section, blinks his eyes a couple of times adjusting his golden orbs to the surroundings. Looking down at where his paw should have resided, he sees a human hand. Reaching his hand up to his head, he lightly touches a soft pair of canine ears and piercing fangs. Sighing softly at the thought of this agonizingly painful curse placed upon him, the hanyou takes a glance at the sleeping girl beside him. Watching her twist and turn underneath the bedding and sweat drops form on her forehead; the canine could tell instantly that she was having an unpleasant dream. Reaching out to her soft ebony locks of hair, Inuyasha timidly places his hand on her head. Petting her head tenderly, Kagome's breathing slows and mocha eyes greet passionately blazing amber.

"Inuyasha…is that you?" Kagome yawns eyelids fluttering lightly.

"Yeah, it's me." Inuyasha whispers sliver hair shimmering in the pale light of the moon.

"You don't look like a puppy anymore." Kagome giggles as Inuyasha rolls his eyes.

"I told you before that I become a hanyou at night." Inuyasha replies letting out a sigh.

"Hey, can I ask you something?" Kagome asks suddenly sitting up.

"Sure…what is it?" Inuyasha wonders taken aback by her urgency.

"Is there any particular reason why you were petting my head just barely?" Kagome questions raising an eyebrow and pointing to the now motionless hand atop her cranium.

"Keh!" Inuyasha scoffs his cheeks flaming red.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome growls grasping his wrist in her hand. "What was up with the petting?"

"You wouldn't stop moaning in your sleep." Inuyasha replies wrenching his wrist free from her grip. "I thought maybe if I patted your head you'd stop groaning and wake up."

"Well, it worked." Kagome sighs glaring at him. "I'm up now."

"Well…" Inuyasha yawns rising up off the bed. "Since you're awake how's about we go find that book?"

"Oh god not that again." Kagome groans falling onto her back again.

"Yes that." Inuyasha insists grabbing her wrists pulling the teen to her feet. "Come on."

"Does it have to be at two in the morning?" Kagome whines as Inuyasha drags her to the door.

"Well, I certainty can't help you looking like Fluffy can I?" Inuyasha remarks sarcastically waiting for Kagome to open the wooden barrier.

"Haha you should be a comedian." Kagome rumbles cracking the door open a tiny bit.

"What's that?" Inuyasha questions cocking his head slightly.

"Oh brother." Kagome sighs smacking her forehead with an open palm. "Never mind and be quiet alright? If you wake Sota or Gramps we're done for."

"Gotcha." Inuyasha nods following her out of the tiny pink bedroom.

Walking down the hallway, mortal and hanyou slink down the stairs and into the kitchen. Tiptoeing lightly, Kagome soon reaches the front door. Inuyasha on her trail, it isn't long before there is a squeal from underneath the dog demon's foot. Letting out a yowl Kagome's over weight cat claws it's way out from underneath Inuyasha's foot. Suddenly, there's a flick of a light switch and the clomping of footsteps. Gulping softly as a sweat drop gathers on her forehead Kagome whispers lightly into the hanyou's ear "Looks like you'll have some company tonight. I'll be joining you in that dog house mom brought home."


I know this isn't the longest chapter, but at least it's something to hold you over. I hope I get some reviews! Thanks ^_^
