How could he even ask me that?
More importantly, how can I even answer that?
Yes, I know I already kind of did, but I can tell it hurt him. I know he doesn't want to be what he is; that it wasn't his fault; but I just can't go around doing what he does.
I pull my hands away from my face and look at my watch. It's two in the morning, and I really can't believe that I haven't gotten any sleep tonight. My eyes are begging me to close them.
And then something hits me. He hasn't fed tonight. Is he holding back so I don't see him leave to feed?
Whatever. If he wants to hold back, it's his fault. He knows that I know what he does. It's not my fault. And right now, I really, just really, don't care.
"Do you need to go check on him?" he asks me suddenly.
"No. He'll be asleep until the next night. Don't worry about him for now. He'll be fine," I say, slowly looking up at him as I speak. His eyes are so deep. So deep that I almost drown just by looking into them. They're a dark crimson in the seemingly shattered moonlight, and I really don't know how much more of him I can take in. His physical beauty is definitely something to remember; something I definitely will not forget. Because really, I don't think I'll be seeing much more of him after this. Something about him keeps pulling me closer to him. I don't want to be pulled closer to him. I don't want to be turned. That's the last thing I want to do. I refuse to change my whole being just because I'm falling in love all over again. I thought I was over him; I thought I was over him because to me, it was impossible to ever actually start something. He's a supernatural being, something that wasn't supposed to exist, and I'm a human.
I don't want him to go hungry; I don't want him to not fulfill his hunger because of me. Should I tell him? Should I bring up the point of his feeding?
"Inuyasha, you have not fed tonight, have you?" Okay, so I guess I should. I can't really control what happens right now; my mind is clouded with feelings, choices, and other various things to think about. It's almost too much.
He shakes his head and turns to look at me. "Don't want to tonight," he says, all to calmly.
"Inuyasha, just because I'm here, doesn't mean you need to restrain yourself from doing what you have to do. Believe me, I've seen it all before," I say, completely irritated by his response.
"And how do you know I'm not feeding because of you? Maybe I'm just trying to -"
"Inuyasha, don't even think about giving me that crap. I know what you need, and I know that you feed every night. So go out and do it already!" I'm so angry right now, I could scream bloody murder and still not be satisfied. Actually, I'm pretty sure I could wring Inuyasha's neck and still be filled with undying anger. Not that that's something I'd ever do, but right now, I feel like I want to.
"Would stop getting so pissed off? I told you, I don't want to tonight!" he snaps.
"Fine. Starve. Go hungry. I don't care," I say in an arrogant tone, turning my head to look the other way.
I hear him growl in anger, not very loud, but enough to send shivers down my spine. And now, I can't imagine why I feel in love with him.
I guess you could say that the love I have for him is strange; almost unreachable to me. I know I love him, I can even feel it, but it seems as if it's not there.
But I know it's there.
It's hard to describe.
I glance at my watch again, and see that it's only been about fifteen minutes since I last looked. The second hand on the mini-watch seem to almost slow down as I continue to watch them, almost as if time will stop. And then I remember that I'm tired.
"Inuyasha," I say softly. "I think I'm going to go home. It's two fifteen, and I'm really tired..." I yawn and look up at him, waiting for his reply.
"Keh," he nearly turns around to look at the wall as if not wanting to even see a part of me from the corner of his eye.
"Oh, Kami, Inuyasha. It's only going to be for a few hours. I'll be back in the morning!"
He doesn't answer me for a while, and just as I'm about to leave, he wraps his large hand around my small arm and pulls me closer to him.
"Stay here for the night," he whispers, as if our little 'fight' had not happened at all.
I shake my head. "Inuyasha, no..."
He brings a finger to my lips and looks at me with a broken smile. "Please?"
"Inuyasha..." I protest, but I sense there's no point in arguing with him. "Fine. But where do you expect me to sleep?"
"Anywhere you'd like," he says.
"Just take me somewhere comfortable," I say, annoyed. I just want to go to sleep.
"All right," he says, and then he doesn't move. He just wraps his arms around my small figure and sits down on the ground with me in his lap.
"Um...?" I begin to say, looking at him with confusion in my eyes.
"Here is comfortable," he states firmly, then looks up at sky.
Once again, I sense no point in arguing, so I snuggle into his embrace for warmth and let sleep take me.

I awake in a dark room.
And I'm scared, because I don't know where I am.
I feel around the room, and I realize that I'm laying in a bed, and for a moment I think I'm in my own room.
But then I hear the even sound of someone's breathing.
Struggling to find some sort of light source, I wait for my eyes to adjust to the darkness and light a single candle. The small light illuminates the room, revealing to me the place in which I obviously have slept in. The last thing I remember is falling asleep in Inuyasha's arms.
I look around the room, head turning from side to side, and see Inuyasha sitting in a corner, his arms folded, head back against the wall, eyes closed.
I glance at my watch, and the small, silver hands of the clock tell me it's eleven thirty in the morning. Yippee.
And now, all I get to do is wait. Wait until the night comes again. Wait for Inuyasha to awake.
