Bundle of Joy

"We're thinking you should confess to Inuyasha."

"You really should tell him how you feel."

"Now's the perfect time."

"There's no reason for him to reject you since we can tell he feels the same,"

"You should confess before it's too late..."

Those words bubbled into Kagome's mind as she turned on the shower. Before it's too late...that's not possible is it...for it to be too late...he's...no...no one's gonna die from here on in. I have no reason to be worried at all. Kagome sighed. Besides...there is no way I could confess now... Kagome took a shy glance at Inuyasha through the shower curtain. He sat blindfolded on the toilet humming and idle tune to keep him occupied. Kagome blushed. There is just no way. I can't. Besides, I can't distract Inuyasha with a confession. Right now we both need to focus on the situation on hand.

The last thing I'd ever want to do is go and make things awkward between us. Kagome sighed in defeat. She reached for the shampoo when suddenly. "Aiee!"

"Kagome!"

Kagome tried to grab onto the curtains to steady herself but failed and ended up...in Inuyasha's arms?

There was a brief moment of silence as Inuyasha held Kagome, his blindfold slightly off his eyes. Then both went beet red as Mizuko wiped the sleep from her eyes. Then Kagome's instincts kicked in...

For the first time since she had decided to stay in his house, Kagome lay in a bed. His bed as he sat in the corner, curled up with Mizuko. He really hadn't looked at Kagome since the incident. It was awkward and silent. Kagome felt sorry. It was sorta her fault and the more she thought about it, the more her fault it seemed. I mean, Inuyasha had only intended to save her...she did scream after all and he kept her from falling on her ass and possibly dying. Also, it was her idea to have each other in the bathroom...with the excuse of in case something happens in the bathroom...and she was the one who had tied his blindfold (too loosely). She really shouldn't have kicked him the balls, punched him the face, squeezed shampoo into eyes and screamed pervert at the top of her lungs as she shoved her hand into his stomach. Kagome really wanted to apologize but...it was so awkward between them.

Inuyasha sat in the corner with Mizuko finally asleep after all the commotion. All he was trying to do at the moment is push the image of Kagome's naked body out of his mind, the thoughts of her lying in the very same bed he had laid in for a large chunk of his life, and finally the realization that they were a boy and girl left unsupervised who could probably have intercourse without alerting Mizuko. Actually, there's one more thing he was trying to push out of his mind, the realization that he could very easily force himself on Kagome. Very easily. As in without any trouble whatsoever.

Anyways, he tried focusing on school but since hadn't been paying much attention in school lately, that was fail. He tried focusing on Naraku, but the very inconvenient realization that if Naraku killed him now, he'd die a virgin kept inconveniently bubbling up.

Inuyasha sighed. "I trust you." Inuyasha glared. Why? I'm a freaking dude same as everyone else. Even I can lose control. He growled. Damn puberty. Damn instincts. Damn Kagome. Damn me.

Inuyasha was glad he had managed to keep his composure that entire night without any unpleasant visits from Naraku. He wasn't glad, however, for the awkward silence between him and Kagome during breakfast and the walk to school. Even Mizuko couldn't break it.

"What happened between you two?" Eriko asked what everyone else was thinking, "You two are really awkward with one another. This is even worse then when Inuyasha was gawking at Kagome all day."

"Sh-shut up!" Inuyasha snapped, "N-nothing happened between us, right Kagome?" Even when he said Kagome he refused to look at her.

Kagome didn't even lift her head to answer, "Yes. Nothing happened. Do we really seem awkward?"

The gang nodded as Inuyasha complete avoidance of even catching a glimpse of any part of Kagome and Kagome's refusal to look up from the supposedly captivating floor was anything but normal as well as the faint matching blushes on their faces.

"Then let's see you two have a real conversation," Sango challenged.

"Fine," Inuyasha snapped, "Hi Kagome, the weather's nice today isn't it?" Inuyasha kept his gaze focused on a tree off in the distance.

"Mm-hmm," Kagome nodded, focused on her shoes, "You know summer's coming, only two weeks left of school."

"Really? I didn't notice," Inuyasha tilted his head slightly upward but still kept the back of said head to Kagome, "Time sure flies."

"Mm-hmm," Kagome's feet shuffled uncomfortable, "Before you know it will be in our last year of school or even graduates of university." Here they shared an awkward, forced laugh.

"There, happy?" Inuyasha turned to Sango but kept his eyes away from Kagome.

"No," Sango replied, suddenly noting their apparent distance and avoidance of contact with one another.

"That was nowhere near a normal conversation," Miroku remarked, "Let alone a real one."

Bankotsu sighed, "Whatever the hell happened must've been major."

Eriko's eyes narrowed. She, too, had noticed their complete avoidance of contact and hatched a plan. "Hey Inuyasha!"

"What?" Inuyasha replied as Eriko shoved him into Kagome. What followed was the strangest thing any of them have ever seen.

Kagome threw Mizuko up into the air and fell back onto her hands as Inuyasha landed on his left hand just beside Kagome and used that hand to propel him into a jump over Kagome's bridge. He landed on the other side of Kagome and quickly caught Mizuko. But as Kagome got up, she and Inuyasha accidentally held a gaze, which caused Inuyasha to fall over and both of them to look away.

"Sorry," Kagome muttered.

All witness shared a bewildered expression. "What the hell was that?" Bankotsu cried.

The two merely stood there awkwardly, blushing. Then an awkward silence hit everyone. Eriko was about to break it when Kagome screamed, "I'M REALLY SORRY INUYASHA! IT WAS ALL MY FAULT! I REALLY SHOULDN'T HAVE BEATEN YOU UP SO BADLY FOR SOMETHING THAT WAS MY FAULT! YOU WERE ONLY TRYING TO PROTECT ME AND I OVERREACTED! I'M TRULY SORRY! PLEASE FORGIVE ME!"

"It's okay..." Inuyasha replied awkwardly still not looking at her.

Eriko was getting frustrated. "What happened?!"

Mizuko had been quietly looking between everyone so far. But decided to speak up since her Mommy and Daddy weren't. "Do you mean when Daddy saw Mommy na-"

"Na...na...naming her shoes..." Inuyasha interjected.

Kagome's eyes narrowed. Payback for the Sailor Moon thing, isn't this?

"Yes, last night I saw her naming her shoes," Inuyasha repeated hastily, "And it was really weird."

Everyone's eyes narrowed. "Really?"

Mizuko looked up at her Dad oddly. Why is Daddy lying to his friends? "Daddy?"

Inuyasha gave Mizuko a pleading look. Mizuko blinked. Daddy?

"If you're gonna lie to us, at least make it something believable," Bankotsu snapped as the bell rung.


Back to the humour...I hope. Anyways, if you don't mind me spoiling, something big is about to go down. And, oh yes, people who also happen to be Falling Star fans just need to be patient...I'm in a spot right now that I'm not sure how to write but the new chappies will be coming in like BoJ's once I dig myself out of it!

Hm...fans?
