Oh my gosh. I am so sorry for not updating sooner, but I had some problems to take care of. As well as a ton of homework taking up my precious time. I tried to make this chapter a bit longer and detailed. Let me know if I typed something wrong or something doesn't make sense. I don't know why I am telling you that because I am sure it will always make sense but who knows you might miss something. Hope you like this chapter as much as the others, so here it is chapter 3. This is starting when Inuyasha and Kagome are packing her stuff to leave.

Disclaimer: I do not own anything

Chapter 3: needin

-------

Kagome and Inuyasha packed up her bag with sleeping bags, food, flashlight, first aid kit, just all of the things Kagome normally packed. But because Inuyasha was there he went downstairs, grabbed two arms-full of ramen, went upstairs, and dumped them into her bag making sure that they stayed in there. He didn't want to loose his precious ramen.

"Are you sure that's enough Inuyasha?" Kagome said sarcastically

"Actually I think we can fit a few more." Inuyasha stated looking at the bag being completely serious

"No, that is enough. If we add anymore the seams are gonna rip on my backpack. Then where would everything go?" Kagome said laughing

"But Kagome I want more ramen." Inuyasha said in a pouty tone

"No and that's final."

"Keh. I'll find a way to bring more next time." Inuyasha said smugly

-------

Kagome and Inuyasha then went out to the well house after having a big argument about how much ramen they were going to take. As always Kagome won the argument with a couple sits and a few choice words directed at the hanyou, they finally managed to get outside. She got on the edge of the well and was about to throw her bag when Inuyasha grabbed it.

"Hey let the bag go!"

"No."

"Why?"

"I am going to take the bag so the ramen won't get crushed."

"All you care about is ramen huh?"

"Yup and tessaiga." Inuyasha said patting the sword on his side

"Fine you can carry it." Kagome said sounding defeated and pissed as Inuyasha put the bag on his back, they both jumped through the well

-------

They went to Kaede's village and were greeted by everyone except Kaede who was attending to business elsewhere. She wouldn't be back for a few weeks and wanted Kagome to take her place for them (the villagers). Kagome couldn't because of mid-terms so Kaede got help from the neighboring village. This means that everyone has to go to the other village to get medical attention.

"Hi Shippo guess what I brought for you?" Kagome said while digging in her bag

"Is it the brown sticks?"

"Yes you guessed right. I brought you more pocky." Kagome said holding the box out for him

"Thank you Kagome." Shippo said as he grabbed the box and ran off into Kaede's hut

"So Sango, Miroku, how have you been?" Kagome asked hugging both of them

"I have been doing fine." Miroku said happily (you should know what that means)

BANG

"Baka hentai!"

"Oh! Miroku got a beating to the head with the hiraikotsu. That's gotta hurt." Kagome said sounding like an announcer

"I told you not to touch me!"

"But Sango, your behind is so irresistable." Miroku said trying to grab at her again

"I don't think so houshi." Sango said swatting his hands away and walked towards Kagome to get away from the offender

"Honestly Miroku why don't you just give it up. Apparently girls don't like it." Inuyasha said while patting him on the back

"I plan on wooing her."

"Wooing who!" Sango screamed as she stormed off into Kaede's hut

"Okay, tell me how that works out." Kagome said as she followed her

"Really Miroku you should give up. You will just make her mad, and groping her isn't wooing." Inuyasha said as he went into Kaede's hut with the others

"It may not be to you, but it is to me!" Miroku yelled to Inuyasha

-------

The group had started traveling once they got everything from Kaede's that they needed. So they sat around the fire eating ramen and some rabbits that Inuyasha caught while talking about their days..

"We were fightling this snake demon and I was like wha wha wha, shwoop, whaaaa ha!" Everyone was laughing and rolling on the floor holding their stomachs for their lives

The one who wasn't laughing was Shippo who was still continuing his movements to show how he 'defeated' the demon all by himself. He continued until he was trying to do a kick-flip and fell on his ass.

"Hey. . . Shippo are. . . . you. . . . okay?" Kagome asked between laughs and attempted deep breaths

"It isn't that funny! I really did it!"

"Shippo be real, me, Miroku, and Inuyasha were there. We know what really happened."

"That's right. You couldn't even get a spark with your fox fire." Miroku added

"Oh wow that was funny. I'm going to take a walk." Kagome said while she got up and winked at Inuyasha

"Uh I have to go take a piss." Inuyasha said as he saw her wink while getting up

"Can I go with you Kagome. There are some things I want to talk about." Sango said getting up assuming her answer will be yes

"Sure. Why not?" Kagome said as she sent Inuyasha a sorry look and he returned it with a pleading one

With that Kagome and Sango went to talk, Inuyasha went to piss, Miroku and Shippo stayed at the camp.

-------

"So Sango what did you have to talk to me about?" Kagome asked a little worried

"I wanted to ask why you winked at Inuyasha when you said you were going to take a walk?"

"Oh that it's just something we do now. It's nothing really."

"Are you sure because Inuyasha said he had to go to do his business right after you did?"

Aww crap I'm in some deep shit now

"Yeah I'm sure it just probably reminded him that he had to go do that."

"Okay whatever you say." Sango said still not believing her I have to tell Miroku that something is up between them

"So is that it?"

"Uh yeah, I think so."

-------

Meanwhile at the camp. . .

"Did you see what Kagome did to Inuyasha before she got up to go take a walk?" Shippo asked Miroku

"No, what did she do?"

"She winked at him and then he got up quickly and said he had to go to the bathroom."

"Maybe they had something planned."

"Maybe your right but he actually went to do his business like he said when Sango wanted to go with Kagome."

"They probably wanted to do something alone Shippo. Don't worry your little head about it."

"Okay but I still think something is up. I'll just talk to Sango about it."

"What do you think is up runt?"

"Oh hi Inuyasha, did I say that?" Shippo said playing stupid

"Yeah you did so what are going to talk to Sango about?"

"Nothing I just wanted her to show me something."

"Keh, like I believe that." Inuyasha said as he hit Shippo on the head a few times for lying

"Hey I'm telling Kagome!"

"Tell me what?" Kagome said as she and Sango stepped from the forest path

"Inuyasha hit me and it hurt, really bad!" Shippo said as he started crying

"Inuyasha you know what happens when you hit him."

"Oh come on Kagome he deserved it." Inuyasha said sitting down on the log next to Miroku

"Sit!" Kagome yelled as Inuyasha was sent crashing down making the side that Miroku was sitting on flip up. The result was Miroku landing about 5 yards away from camp. Inuyasha growled and Miroku said "Oww why did you have to do that when he was on the log with me?"

"Sorry Miroku, I had to punish him." Kagome said as Miroku walked back up to camp and Inuyasha went to sit in a tree

"Hey did you see where Inuyasha went?" Kagome asked looking around the camp

"Oh I think I saw him jump into one of those trees." Sango said as she pointed to a grouping of tall trees a little ways away from camp

"Okay we should probably get to sleep now." Kagome said as she began pulling out the sleeping bags

-------

Kagome was pretending to be asleep until she was sure that everyone else was. Once she was sure she got up carefully as to not wake Shippo who was sleeping right next to her. She then walked through the camp to get to the trees. Stepping carefully as to not step on any sticks. She made it over and began to scan the trees.

"Inuyasha are you there?"

"Yeah whadaya want?"

"I wanted to talk to you." Kagome said with her hands on her hips

"Fine then talk."

"I meant face to face."

"Fine then." Inuyasha said as he jumped down

"Whoa." Kagome said as he lifted her up into the tree

"What did you want to talk about?"

"I wanted to know why you came up here. But I already have an idea."

"And what would that be?"

"Are you mad at me because I sat you?"

"That and the fact you did it even when we played your game earlier."

"Oh."

"Kagome I care about you a lot and I am beginning to think that you don't care about me." Inuyasha said with his head down

"Inuyasha I do care about. More than you know. But I can't have you hitting Shippo anymore."

"Why not he deserves each and every hit I give him!"

"I know but he is just a little kid." Kagome said trying to make him understand

"Fine I won't." Inuyasha said stubbornly

"Inuyasha. . . " Kagome started as she cupped his face in her hand rubbing his cheek bone with her thumb. Then she went in and kissed him. At first he was surprised but then he got into it, taking her waist and setting her on his lap without breaking it (the kiss). But a few minutes later he broke away because he heard rustling in the bushes below.

"Come on out Shippo." Inuyasha said impatiently

"H-hi Inuyasha, Kagome." Shippo said nervously

"What are you doing so far away from camp?" Kagome said worriedly

"I wanted to see where you went and I followed you here."

"You know you aren't supposed to leave without telling anyone." Kagome said sternly

"I know. I will go now." Shippo said as he began to leave

"Okay and you stay there until we come back okay we are talking right now."

"Got it Kagome." Shippo said as he ran off back to camp

"So what now?" Inuyasha asked nervously his hands fumbling

"What's wrong?" Kagome said placing her hands on his

"It's nothing." Inuyasha lied

"Okay you tell me when you are ready."

"Okay I think we should go back to camp now it's almost sunrise." Inuyasha said getting up and taking Kagome with him

-------

"Hey Miroku are you awake?" Sango asked Miroku who was still asleep

"Uhnn no." Miroku groaned as he rolled over

"Well wake up I must speak with you." Sango said shaking him

"I am awake now so what did you want to say?"

"I think something is going on between Inuyasha and Kagome."

"So does Shippo, go talk to him." Miroku said laying back down

"Shippo does? Where is Shippo?" Sango said looking around

"He went to follow Kagome, who went to see Inuyasha judging by the direction she was going."

"Why would she want to go see him?"

"Who knows maybe they had to clear things up from earlier."

"You are probably right." Sango said laying back down in time to see Shippo running up to camp "Where have you been!"

"I followed Kagome to see where she was going and she was in a tree with Inuyasha talking."

"Okay, but that is no excuse to leave without telling anyone." Sango scolded

"Sorry Sango, I won't do it again."

Inuyasha and Kagome arrived back at the camp and went to sleep. Kagome in her sleeping bag and Inuyasha about a foot away from her in the sleeping bag she had layed out for him. Miroku was asleep and so was Sango and Shippo. But Inuyasha was awake facing Kagome just looking at her face and the way she looked when she breathed in and out.

-------

Kagome woke up to find everyone asleep except the hanyou that was looking at her. She got up, stretched and began getting ready for the day to come. Inuyasha rolled over on his back and began looking at the sky which was a pale blue with some clouds.

"Sleep well Kagome?"

"Yeah actually better than before. How about you?"

"I didn't really get to sleep."

"Why is that?"

"I was just thinking about stuff."

"Oh okay." Kagome said feeling better about the fact that he hadn't gotten any sleep

After about an hour everyone started getting up and ready for the day to come. And they began their travels once again.

So I hope you liked that chapter. It might have been a bit boring but I will pick up the non-boring meter soon in the next chapter. So now that you have read please review. I am thinking about writing a couple one-shots that are very cool, at least in my opinion they are. And of course they are Kagome and Inuyasha fics one will have Kikyou in it but only to make it funny because it is a humor/parody fic. The other is a romance type thing, it is kinda kinky, no it is kinky. Byedee bye bye. Review pleasies and thankies.
