The Best Man Steals the Bride

By: Msmelanie (Now being known as Fondest Desire)

Chapter Eighteen: Inuyasha's Comfy Spot.

Day: Friday

Place: Kagome's Dorm

Time: 5:45 P.M.

"Inuyasha?"

Inuyasha just mumbled.

"Inuyasha?" Kagome called out again.

Inuyasha grumbled. "Kitten, I've had a hard week. Can't we just sleep it off?"

Kagome frowned and yawned. She knew what Inuyasha meant. Sometimes there were easy weeks where you hardly worked. Mostly, there were normal weeks where you worked a great deal, but then there was a horrible thing called HARD weeks. Hard weeks practically fried a person's brain.

Both Kagome and Inuyasha had had a HARD week.

"We can't." Kagome said, trying to be a good student. "We need to-"

"One hour!" Inuyasha pleaded.

Kagome wanted to say no. That they had too much reading to do, but she couldn't. Both her brain and her body were saying the same thing. "One hour. That's it, so scoot over."

Inuyasha smiled as he barely gave her enough room to lie down,

She continued to elbow. "Scoot over." She whined as she grabbed her warm blanket. "I've had a harder week than you. I had a test in three of my classes today and a 1-3 page paper yesterday."

Inuyasha grabbed some of her blanket. "So? I had two freakin' midterms and two papers for Science."

"Yeah, yeah." Kagome yawned. "Whatever." She put her head on one of her pillows. "Just ONE hour."

"One day?" Inuyasha mumbled. "Yeah, sure."

"Yeah…" Kagome mumbled, slipping into unconsciousness. "One…something…"

Day: Friday

Place: Kagome's Dorm/Hall outside

Time: 7:50 P.M.

Miroku smiled at his good fortune as he went through the hall. 'Sango, Sango, Sango…' He was about to knock on Sango's door when he saw something odd.

Kagome's door had not been completely closed, but he heard no one reading inside. 'Shouldn't Inuyasha be in there with her?'

He slowly opened Kagome's door and what he saw made him want to grin as wide as a clown.

Kagome and Inuyasha were nestled together in an…unfriendly manner. Inuyasha was on the left fast asleep with his back on the left side of the bed. Kagome's back though was more on Inuyasha's chest. Miroku chuckled. 'Inuyasha is spooning her.'

That in itself was cute, but that was not what Miroku was pulling out his camcorder for. 'I was going to record Sango's reaction of me getting this far without an escort, but this is so much better!'

For Inuyasha's left hand was draped just a little further down from Kagome's shoulder in a not-so-friendly soft place.

Time: 8:00 P.M.

Miroku looked at his watch. The sweet 'we're-only-friends!' did not move the whole time he'd been there. Miroku sighed. 'I have plenty of proof now.' He looked over at Inuyasha. 'I'm sorry my friend, but your enjoyment must now end.'

Miroku put the recorder on top of Kagome's T.V. as he went to get Sango.

After Sango beaned him a couple of times with her purse, he explained about Kagome and Inuyasha's current position.

She quickly went into Kagome's room and gasped. She frowned as she moved Inuyasha's hand quickly down to Kagome's tummy.

There was no way she would let her friend wake up in such an embarrassing position.

Inuyasha grumbled. What was going on? He'd just been sleeping comfortably and someone moved his hand from it's comfy spot. His hand started to stumble around for it again….ahh, there it was.

Sango was silently scolding Miroku about recording such an embarrassing scene when she saw Inuyasha put his hand right back where she had found it. Smiling happily.

Miroku couldn't help but chuckle lightly. 'What luck! I'm so glad I did not turn the recorder off yet.' He quickly went over to it and turned the red light off.

If Sango realized he had been recording, he would not have his new home film for very long.

Sango quickly moved back to Inuyasha's hand and moved it away again. Then, she started to wake Kagome up by pulling her out of bed.

"Apparently Inuyasha knows what he likes." Miroku chuckled as he quickly put his videocamera away and went over to Inuyasha's side. He watched as his friend started searching for his 'giant pillow' that had been at his side. "Time to wake up my friend."

Inuyasha grumbled, but was instantly awake as Miroku flicked his ear. "Dammit Snake, I know that was you! How many times have I told you not to wake me up like that!"

Samgo ignored the boys' argument. "Kagome? Why were you asleep?"

Kagome yawned. "HARD week. Inuyasha and I decided to rest for an hour."

Sango frowned. "Kagome. It's past 8:00."

Kagome laughed nervously. "Gee, is it? Boy, we must have really crashed, huh Inuyasha?" she finished as she turned to look at him.

"Yeah, yeah." Inuyasha yawned. "It was worth it though. Now, what's to eat?"

Kagome smiled. "We're cooking tonight, so follow me." She said as she quickly smiled at her friend. "Thanks a bunch Sango. If you hadn't woken us up we would probably still be asleep for awhile."

Sango glared at Inuyasha. "Your welcome Kagome."

Inuyasha frowned. 'What's up with the glare?'

Sango continued to glare at him as she started to leave. "Come on Miroku."

"Yes dear!" Miroku joked as he winked back mysteriously at Inuyasha.

Kagome and Inuyasha just looked at each other.

"Well, they're acting a bit bizarre, aren't they?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah. Tch. Whatever. What're we cooking?" Inuyasha asked.

Kagome smiled. "You grab the hamburger, pepperoni and cheese. I'll grab the Prego, English muffins, and the book.

Inuyasha grinned. That sounded like a good combination.

Day: Friday

Place: Kadowaki/5th floor lobby/kitchen

Time: 8:40P.M.

Inuyasha read quietly to Kagome as the mini-pizzas cooked. "Ron looked up at Hermione, disgusted. You sleep with this under your pillow?" Inuyasha read. He stopped and looked over at Kagome. "What about you Kitten? Do you sleep with a picture of a guy underneath your pillow?"

Kagome humphed. "You should know. You took most of my pillows. By the way, you better not have slobbered on any of them."

"Eh. If there is slobber, it's probably yours." Inuyasha shot back. "Are our pizzas done yet?"

Kagome got up and checked the oven. "Yep! The cheese is all melted."

"The one in front's mine." Inuyasha claimed as Kagome pulled them out. "I added extra pepperoni to mine."

"I know." Kagome answered as she scooped out her own. "Mine had extra cheese."

After they finished eating their pizza (because Kagome would not allow pizza near her book) they went back to her room and continued to read through the night.

Until 12:55 that is...

Kagome looked both ways out of her door. "I can't believe you talked me into this."

"Friday night guys don't gotta leave 'til 1:00." Inuyasha repeated her own rule to her.

"I know, but I don't want to get caught with you in my room so late." Kagome reminded him. "Who knows what my friends would think." She looked both ways again.

It was clear. "Okay." Kagome said. "Let's go, but be quiet."

Inuyasha and Kagome softly made it to the elevator. Kagome exhaled in relief as she pushed the button. "I still can't believe I let you talk me into letting you stay."

"But Kitten, we had to finish that one part!" Inuyasha whined. "Then Ron's sister happened and stuff and we just couldn't quit." He smirked. "Besides, now we just got one chapter and we can start the third book. Finally."

"Oh!" Kagome couldn't help but squeal. "Yeah! You'll get to...oh. sorry. I don't want to spoil it for you."

Inuyasha didn't reply as the elevator opened up again. "If Miroku asks, it was around 9:00 when I left."

"Yeah, yeah." Kagome replied as she walked to the door with Inuyasha. She smiled as she watched Inu eyeing Miroku's window cautiously before he went out to his car.

Kagome turned back around. 'I shouldn't feel guilty. Inuyasha just liked the book too much to want to leave, that's all.'
