"You mean they're gonna be stuck like this?" Shippo asked watching Inuyasha hold Kagome in his lap while they sat outside and looked up at the stars and moon.
"It's what we learned," Miroku sighed sipping tea.
"What are we gonna do?" Shippo asked looking up at the two adults who were just watching the now 'couple'.
"Inu-kun?" Kagome's voice sighed; obviously she was feeling tired and not even objecting to leave from Inuyasha's lap.
"Yeah," Inuyasha murmured nuzzling her.
"I love you," Kagome murmured and shifted around to get comfortable.
"I love you to." Inuyasha whispered into her hair.
"We're just going to let them be," Sango whispered smiling at the two. As strange as it was it also in a part seemed right for those two to e acting like this. "Only if they do something that we think they might regret doing once they snap out of this."
"But if this is truly how they feel though, how would they regret it?" Shippo yawned. Miroku and Sango exchanged glances before tucking Shippo under a small blanket.
"Love isn't that simple Shippo." Sango sighed when she felt a rubbing on her hind.
"Ours is," Miroku grinned before Sango slapped him hard across the face.
"Even that has its complications." Sango muttered although looking out to the simple minded couple. A small envy was inside her. Being treated with respect and given full attention of love by your loved one had to feel nice. She knew Kagome would probably be enjoying it, to feel this from Inuyasha after all the issues of Kikyo. Lying down on the ground Sango got comfortable and drifted to sleep.
"Miroku I just realized something." Sango gasped turning to Miroku. "Naraku," Miroku stopped in his path.
"That could be a problem." Miroku pondered turning back to glance at Sango.
"'Could'? How is it not a problem?"
"Do remember Sango, Inuyasha and Kagome act like their normal selves with everyone else. We have nothing to worry about, if Naraku attacks Inuyasha won't be any easier on him."
"I'm not worried about Inuyasha acting different. If Naraku figured out about Inuyasha and Kagome's love, you know as well as I he will use that against them." The two returned back to walking at a slow pace behind the rest.
"Well then," Miroku sighed looking to Sango. "We better hope he doesn't."
"Are you serious Miroku! That's all we're going to do?"
"Nothing else we can do."
Inuyasha and Kagome paused walking and slowly turned around. Kagome sighed and gave a worried glance to Inuyasha who was wearing a familiar scowl on his face which only appeared under one certain condition. Kouga. Miroku and Sango looked back and saw the familiar whirlwind of the fast moving wolf demon.
"Sango, my dear, we are in for some entertainment." Miroku whispered to her with a sly grin as he motioned for Shippo to come over with them. The whirlwind blew past the two and stopped immediately in front of Kagome, taking her hands in his.
"Hello Kagome, I caught your scent and thought to check to make sure mutt face was taking care of you." He greeted. The aura of the peaceful sunny day went for a change that everyone in the gang knew what it was. It was only when Kouga was practically thrown ten feet away from a single punch in the jaw from Inuyasha.
"Keep. Your. Hands. Off. Her." He growled. His eyes were beginning to tint a little pink. Kouga whipped his mouth and glared back over at Inuyasha.
"What the hell is your problem?" He spat. "Aren't you satisfied with your dead bitch?"
"Don't disrespect Kikyo," Inuyasha glared, his hand tightening into a fist.
"See! You're trying to have the both of them! Stick to your other woman." Kouga grabbed Kagome's arm and tugged her towards him yet Inuyasha held a grip on her other. Kagome sent him a pleading type of look as if to ask him to remain calm and faced Kouga.
"I don't belong to you Kouga. Please just let go and leave." She smiled nicely. Miroku and Sango exchanged glances, knowing Kouga it would take a greater argument to get him to go.
"Really Kagome? You honestly can't choose dog breath over me. After all the mistreatment he gives you?"
"We've changed," Kagome smiled but looked over at Inuyasha and squeezed his hand. Kouga was glancing from one to the other absentmindedly confused.
"Don't tell me that mutt has got you hooked into his little puppy teeth."
"He's always had," Kagome sighed not even looking back to Kouga and only at her love. Kouga gritted his teeth and while Inuyasha was quite off guard he took the chance and pulled Kagome towards him and slung her up over his shoulder. Similar to the way he had the first time he kidnapped her.
"I refuse to lose, that dog isn't beating me at winning your heart." Kouga growled dashing off to the wolf territory and was already getting out of sight.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha shouted yet was also partially growling and was already on the chase after them. Miroku watched after them, rubbing his chin.
"I wonder if having the power of love will give Inuyasha the speed to catch up with Kouga." Sango rolled her eyes as Kirara already took to transforming to go after their two companions.
"It will take a special act in order to catch up with Kouga." Shippo sighed.
"You never know Shippo, if those two are to be in the case of deep love, well we'll just say love can provide some miracles." Miroku smirked as they all flew in hoped to catch up with the two love birds and jealous wolf.
Kagome felt the rushing wind hit her face from the speed that Kouga was running. It felt almost the equivalent of such as a roller coaster.
"Kouga! Don't be like this! I'm not going to change if you kidnap me…again!" She yelled.
"If I make you my mate you won't have a choice but to be with me!" Kouga chuckled. Kagome bit her lip; Kouga was upset, although that was clearly obvious. And now, just as the last time kidnapped like Kouga, she would have to play dirty if she wanted to be with Inuyasha and stay with Inuyasha. Reaching into the small reachable pouch in her backpack that was meant to contain a cell phone she pulled out a dangerous weapon.
Lucky I held onto this. She reached her arms over and tugged the object hard over Kouga's head.
"What the-"
"SIT!" Kagome yelled when Kouga crashed down face first into the ground. Kagome tugged away from his grasp to stand up above him. "Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit. Sit." Of course the beaded necklace submitted to each command and dug Kouga deeper and deeper into the ground. That's how it went for a few minutes. Kagome took a seat on a boulder while she waited for Inuyasha to come for her. Anytime Kouga tried to get up she would keep subduing him to keep him down.
She didn't have to wait too long for her beloved hanyou to finally catch up. Inuyasha didn't even care about the plans he had to kill Kouga but just went to Kagome.
"He didn't do anything to you did he?" He asked worriedly checking more around the junction of her neck and sniffing all over her.
"I'm fine Inuyasha," Kagome smiled hugging around his neck. She felt warm and at home whenever she was with him, and that was why she would never want to be with anyone but him. Inuyasha looked back over to the Kouga shaped hole and couldn't help but snicker.
"That wolf finally got a punishment from you?" He laughed warmly and looked down upon Kagome and smiled and shrugged playfully.
"He might have deserved it this time." Inuyasha smirked and pressed his lips gently against Kagome's who greedily kissed back. The rest of the group was flying towards the scene and learned to more past the stage of being shocked to see Inuyasha and Kagome kissing and directed their attention to the Kouga who was finally lifting himself up from the ground.
The three gasped their jaws hanging agape at what was around his neck.
"That isn't the-" Sango began turning to Miroku who was nodding slowly.
"I think it is." Sango looked to Inuyasha and found that his usual beads of submission were gone. He was free, yet he was acting as if nothing had changed. Landing on the ground, the two climbed off with Shippo on Miroku's shoulder. "Kagome, you removed the beads?"
Kagome looked over to them, and nodded with a warm smile. "I don't need it anymore." She turned to face Inuyasha and rested her head against his shoulder.
"When did you guys do this?" Miroku asked glancing from one to the other.
"Were you to busy groping girls to notice?" Inuyasha grunted.
"You don't need to be rude Inu-kun." Kagome playfully scolded and turned back to the others. "It was last night when we were sitting together….
Flashback
"I always loved the stars in this era." Kagome awed snuggling closer to Inuyasha. She felt him tighten his hold around her and smiled.
"More than me?" He breathed into her ear teasingly.
"Nothing more than that," She sighed when she felt something uncomfortable pressing into her lower neck. Sitting up she could feel Inuyasha tugging her to try and push her back against his chest. Although she just turned around to face him in his lap.
His golden eyes ran her confused. Kagome brushed her fingers over his chest and trailed over the beads.
"Love is all about trust," She murmured softly as she lifted them up on her fingers. "I love you with all my heart, and I should trust you with all it to." She slipped the beads up over his head and wrapped them around her hand.
"But-" Inuyasha began but was silenced by Kagome's kiss as he fell back against the floor softly with Kagome on top as they cuddled and kissed in that position for the most of the night.
End of Flashback
"Alright, so we have Kouga under control if he tries that. From personal experience those beads are impossible to get off." Inuyasha chuckled as he started leading Kagome away to the direction they were headed. "We've wasted enough time over that flea bitten wolf, maybe he won't go sticking his snout where it doesn't belong."
As the couple took the lead Sango and Miroku got back on Kirara.
"I have no idea how, but now I'm hoping they never find that flower." Shippo said.
"It's not for us to say, but it's nice to see them trusting each other like that." Sango added.
"Yes, as we all know Inuyasha does have that issue of trusting people." Miroku added nodding in agreement.
"What was that!"
Lol I bet you guys know who that was at the end. Sorry this chapter was short I started it after I posted the last chapter, had computer trouble, and got occupied and such but at least it's up. So please review I've been curious why this story is doing so much better than my others. Could it be just Inuyasha and Kagome under a spell to be lovey dovey? In my experience most stories like that receive a lot of reviews. But anyways reviews give me inspiration! Also what do you think would be a next scary encounter in this story? Naraku? Kikyou? Or possibly…*dramatic sigh* Sesshomaru? Well you'll find out soon!
P.S. Sorry its so short it bothered me. I wanted to do an angry couples chapter but I thought it'd be better if I kept Kouga and Kikyou in seperate chapters. Did you guys think i did the right?
