An Unrevealed Secret, A Hidden Past

This is probably the chapter everyone's been waiting for! * Warning * This chapter is very short, too.

Chapter Eight:

Admitting FeelingsWas Never Easy

He heard his name ring out over the forest, and cringed, but kept on running. Why should he have Raven feed him lies? Humans are all the same. Demons will have nothing to do with him. Loneliness washed over him, and he shuddered. Going back to his favorite tree, he hopped up, and settled down.

No matter what, he couldn't sleep. His mind kept wandering back to Raven. How could she do that do him? Everyone was right, hanyous had no place in this world. He sighed, tucking his hands behind his head, watching morning turn to afternoon, afternoon turning to night. When the gleaming white moon and the silvery cast of the stars streamed down on him, he sensed someone nearby.

"GO AWAY!" he yelled, but the footsteps got louder, the scent stronger.

"Inuyasha." He heard her voice trembling, but at that exact moment, he didn't care.

"GO BACK TO YOUR LITTLE WOLF BOY!" He heard her walking away. "I KNEW IT!"

"I'M GOING BACK HOME ~STUPID~!" Her voice was ten times louder than his, and he covered his ears, scowling at her direction. Angered that his mind kept settling back on Raven, he turned, and went to sleep.

Two days later, after she recovered from her kidnapping, she returned to work, smiling like the ray of sunshine she was. Mr. Aru was happy to have his attendant back, and the village boys were glad, too. She even went to Yurai's place, but she wasn't there.

Her job was as long and tedious as ever, but she enjoyed getting out of the stuffy hut, and her mind off of Inuyasha.

Another few weeks had past,[she's been there for a few months now] and she was starting to cool down from their heated argument. Surely today would be the day that they would get back together, not that you exactly were before, she quietly reminded herself. Finding Inuyasha in his usual tree, growling threateningly down at her, Raven put on her best smile.

"Inuyasha." He did his causal `feh', but continued to look at her. "Nothing happened between me and Kouga!" Knowing him, that wouldn't be enough.

"Then what was that kissin` stuff you guys were doing?" he asked, eyes narrowing into slits.

"He was forcing himself on me! It's…it's wishful thinking. He has someone else out there, who loves him dearly!"

"And why is his scent all over you?"

"S-scent?"

"Oy woman, are you stupid! I'm a dog hanyou!" He rolled his eyes.

"I'm not dumb, you baka! Anyway, whadda you expect! Him dragging me all over the place, and hugging me and…" She bit her lip, she hadn't intended to go that far. Inuyasha had never hugged her close like Kouga had and she could tell he was extremely jealous. His cold stare sent shivers up her spine.

"But that doesn't mean anything!"

"Prove it!" Oh, she wanted to prove it, really bad. She wanted to hug him close to her and then kiss him deeply. Raven shuddered, shaking those thoughts from her head. He didn't like her like that. ~Wishful thinking, wishful thinking, Raven, you baka!~ Of course Inuyasha would never like her like that! Besides, why was she totally ignoring the fact that he is so hot headed and dumb?

~*~*~*~*INU POV*~*~*~*~

Why is that girl blushing? I look around dumbly, ignoring how fast her heart is beating.

"Well, what are ya staring at! Prove it!" She blushes even deeper and stares up at me with really shimmering eyes. What's wrong with her?

"I-I-I can't!" Raven blubbers, now favoring at tomato. She turns to run, but I jump down from my perch and catch her wrist.

"Prove it!" All she had to say was that Kouga was a stinking fleabag and I'd be satisfied. She twists around and my grasp and I find my gaze traveling down to her soft lips, that are slightly parted as she breathes heavily. Oh god, now I'm blushing!

"I-I," she faltered. What was her problem? Her heart is beating way too fast. Is she afraid that I'll hurt her?

"I don't like Kouga! I-I like you! I've liked you from the beginning! I guess even a great hanyou doesn't know everything!" she snapped, and her blush deepening, kisses me on my cheek.

~*How was that? I didn't want to make it so sweet that you gagged, but just sweet enough! I know this chapter sucked, so I don't mind flames. She finishes the kiss in the next chapter, what will happen? You'll know if you do that six letter word: Review! That's all for now! Buh bye!*~
