Well, this means that we're on chapter five, and I'm so surprised! I thought I would've given up on this story by now, so yeah. Thank you all for being patient and reading, though I only have about five people who like this story… oh well, I love this pairing, so I'll never give up!

If the present is where I am

And the future is where I'm going

I'll make sure to tie it together with you

So I can continue to smile

So I may continue to take your hand into mine

And continue forward

Into the unknown future

By your side…

~Youko, what is this?!~

~Nnnn? ~

Kurama gave an annoyed growl ~You know what I mean Youko. ~

~What if I don't know? ~ He challenged still unwilling to give Kurama a straight answer. Kurama gave an annoyed groan and flopped back onto the bed. Fighting with Youko was giving him a headache.

~Which is why you don't fight me~

His finger twitched, he had a sudden want to strangle something, or more likely someone who was currently stuck in his head and being a pest. Rolling over so his face was buried in the pillow on his new bed, he groaned. The bed was so stiff and cold compared to Kagome's. Finally when he couldn't stand it anymore, he swung his legs over the side of the bed. Standing up, he opened the door. Kurama walked down the hallway, taking a left turn into Kagome's room.

His tense muscles relaxed as he opened the door. The room smelled of her, while the bed sheets were still rumpled. A small growl made him turn around. In the corner was a half asleep Kyuubi glaring at him through red hazy eyes. Ignoring the small fox, he slid under the bed sheet. Kurama gave a content sigh as he closed his eyes and went to sleep, reveling in her room that smelt uniquely like her and the softness she left on her bed after so many years of sleeping upon it.

Kagome gave a tired, "Mmmgh…" as she rolled over, only to find that she couldn't. Confused, she tried to sit up, finding that the option of sitting up was unavailable as well. Shaking away the fog that clouded her mind, she looked down at the object that was restraining her from getting up. She suppressed a squeak when she saw two arms encircling her. A sudden pull pulled her down from leaning on her arms and onto a muscular chest. Kagome gave a muffled squeak into Youko's tunic as he shifted closer to her.

The feeling of his legs encaging her nearly made her groan. There was last night with Shuuichi, and now it was Youko! Her brows narrowed as she wriggled even more furiously only to be stopped by the feeling of two very sharp fangs pressed against her neck. Taking in a gulp of air, Kagome mentally tried to calm down. She nearly kicked Youko in fright when he started to lap at her with his hot wet tongue. Blushing, Kagome continued to stay still. Soon the soothing and relaxing effect of Youko's tongue and his purring put her into a deep sleep.

)!)!)!)!)!))))))))))))))))))))))))))!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Youko gave a satisfied groan as he held the warm bundle closer to him. She had woken up earlier and tried to get up, keyword try. Still masquerading being asleep, he made sure she wouldn't leave. It was hard to keep the smile off of his face when she gave an annoyed whuff and struggled even harder. He finally managed to subdue her when he placed his fangs over her pulse point. She had gone back to sleep not far afterwards causing a victorious smirk to cross the kitsune's face.

Youko buried his face into her hair until an odd scent reached him. Giving a imperceptible sniff, he looked down at her. Exactly who was it that got so close to her?! Youko inhaled deeply searching for the point in which the scent was given off. Following his nose, he stopped at the opposite of the spot he was previously suckling; it was the point where her shoulder and neck joined. Subconsciously he began to give off a possessive growl. Exactly who was he?! Who was it who believed he had the right to touch her there besides him?!

Kagome's fluttering eyes made him look up at her. She looked down a bit surprised, "Youko…what are you doing?" He looked away unwilling to give her a straight answer. Kagome frowned at him ignoring her.

"Look at me you baka kitsu-!" she shouted just as she felt something approach quickly." What in the world!?"

I know it's not the best or even the longest, but I've been on a very tight schedule and I can only type on Wednesday's because the power was cut off at my house. I am so sorry for the inadequacy of this chapter!
