"Because I love you.' "It's nothing, just silly human emotions." She laughs humorlessly causing the Inu daiyoukia to frown. "Kagome, please tell me." He softly begs her. A shiver went down her spine at the sound of her name on his tongue.

"You're ruining your clothes." She says smiling gently at him. Toga sighs knowing that he wouldn't get an answer from her. He sweeps her off her feet, earning a shriek of surprise as he leaps out of the hot springs dripping water onto the floor setting her down. "I'm fine." She says looks at him.

Toga nods knowing that she isn't convincing him differently. "Why don't you change into dry clothes and stay here with me?" she asks wrapping the towel fully around her body. Toga shook his head before letting his clothes pool around his feet and stepping out of them to be stark naked. Kagome looks over to see him as naked as the day he was born.

"What the hell!" she squeaks turning around blushing madly. "What's the matter Ka-go-me?" he chuckles at her innocence.

"Damn dog." She whispers earning another round of chuckles from him.
