Kagome pumped her fists in the air before turning it into a whole body stretch and letting herself fall sideways on the couch. She turned her head to look at Inuyasha, who had his books and laptop set up on the coffee table as he sat on the floor working.

"Done!" she sung, smiling gleefully.

Inuyasha glared at her over the top of his laptop.

Laying on her back on the couch, she moved her feet to hang off the armrest. Bored, because Inuyasha was still working, Kagome tried to occupy herself by looking around the apartment. Inuyasha really was a simple man. He did not have any knick-knacks around, except a few pictures of Kagome and himself that Kagome had put up herself. The walls were white. The floors were wooden. All in all, it was very bland.

"This place is so…vanilla."

"Vanilla?" Inuyasha looked at her questionably.

"Yeah, vanilla. I mean, look around. This place is so plain," Kagome complained.

"So? Have you seen your room lately? You have so much crap laying around, I don't know how you clean it."

"It is not crap! They're knick-knacks and they give flavor to my room!" Kagome explained, throwing her hands up at her last statement.

"Vanilla? Flavor? What exactly are you saying? Is this some sort of subliminal messaging that you want ice cream, or something?" Inuyasha scratched his head, once again pausing his homework.

"No, but now that you mention it, that sounds absolutely delicious," Kagome opened her eyes wide and put out her bottom lip.

Inuyasha sighed, "This stuff is due in class tomorrow."

Knowing she'd already won, Kagome jumped up in excitement, waving her hand at his weak protest, "Class isn't until 1. You'll have plenty of time to finish it."

Rolling his eyes, he shut his laptop.

"Mm," Kagome took another lick of her vanilla ice cream, catching a drop before it rolled down her cone.

"People are going to think something is going on if you keep moaning like that," Inuyasha commented, taking a bite out of his chocolate ice cream cone.

She hit him on his arm, careful not to jostle her cone, "And someone might think you have a death wish eating chocolate ice cream."

Inuyasha snorted, "That was awful. Please don't ever try to make a lame dog joke about me ever again. I'm sure you can do better than that."

"No, actually, that's all I've got. You think way too highly of me," Kagome bumped her arm into his playfully, "It must be because you L-O-V-E me so much."

"Are you seriously spelling things out and dancing around?" Inuyasha raised his brows before snatching at her ice cream cone, "Okay, that's enough sugar for you."

"No!" Kagome whined pitifully, reaching for her cone, which Inuyasha kept just out of her reach, "I'll stop."

"Good girl," Inuyasha complimented, handing her ice cream back.

Kagome pouted at him, "Don't think I don't notice this whole train me like a dog thing you've got going on."

Inuyasha turned away from her, starting to walk the familiar path back to his apartment only two blocks away, "I have no clue what you are talking about. Women are crazy."

Kagome laughed, jogging to catch up with him and slipping her free hand around his arm.

Seems I have an every other day thing going here with the drabbles. That will probably continue until school gets out for the summer.

Please review! I'd love to know what you think. :)
