Ch. 10
-------------------------------------------
Ten Minutes Later…
InuYasha laid in a futon, a cool damp cloth on his forehead, his breathing was so shallow that Sakura could barely hear it.
“His fever is going down”, Sakura says to herself, checking his temperature with her hand as she re-dampens the cloth.
“He can be such a pain in my ass when he’s awake, but when he’s asleep he looks so innocent”, she remarks, placing the newly damp cloth back onto his forehead, “I don’t get men…”, she sighs, “Pains one minute, sweet the next”.
----------------------
An Hour Later…
InuYasha slowly blinks open his eyes, his mind felt groggy.
“What happened to me…?”, he whispers, slowly sitting up, the cloth falling into his lap, “Huh?”, he picks up the cloth and examines it, “This is…”, he gasps, recognizing it as Sakura’s handkerchief.
Suddenly, a loud thunder-clap roars through the room, causing him to wince as he quickly covered his ears.
“Uhh…my head…”, he groans, rubbing his temples.
“Where is Sakura?”, he asks himself.
He perks his ears up and listens carefully, he hears the sound of metal being sharpened with a stone.
He slowly gets to his feet; wobbling as he got up, he stumbles to the door. Stopping to lean on the doorframe, shaking his head clear.
“Why can’t I walk straight?”, he questions, sniffing the air, “Eww! Gross! I reek of sake!”, he shouts, pinching his nose, ‘I smell like I was bathing in it; clothes and all’, he thinks, staggering out the door to locate Sakura.
-------------------------
Five Minutes Later…
InuYasha followed the noise to Sakura’s room and when he slid open the door, he is greeted by a dagger flying past his head; grazing his right cheek, and plants itself into the wall behind him.
“Hump! The balance is still off…”,. Sakura mutters.
“What the hell was that for?”, InuYasha yells, pulling the dagger from the wall.
“I was testing the blade”, she replies, examining another one.
“By aiming at my head?”
“No, if the balance was perfect, it would of hit the wall; passing as close to your face as possible, without cutting your cheek”, she states.
“What…!”, he growls, “Why you…”.
He notices that she sat on the floor, wearing an off-white kimono, her clothes hanging from a line over-head; dripping wet. Knives, arrows and broken swords laid scattered all around her.
“What are you doing?”, he asks.
“Making daggers and knives I can throw, so if a time comes that we need to attack an enemy from long-range, I can fight. I can’t always rely on a sword to fight”, she answers, throwing her second at him, this time passing his left cheek.
He reaches up to touch his cheek and looks at his fingers, finding no blood on them.
“Now that one is perfectly balanced!”, she cheers.
“You’re nuts! So, what happened to the demon?”
“I killed her and her lackeys”, Sakura says.
“All by yourself?”, he gasps.
“Yeah, with the aid of burning sake”.
“Impossible!”
“If it wasn’t for my ability to throw daggers and swords; without missing my mark, you would have died in that sake-tainted, fluid-filled bubble. So you should thank me for saving your sorry intoxicated ass!”, she retorts, crossing her arms.
“Feh!’, he curses, crossing his arms and sticking his nose in the air.
“Don’t you ‘Feh” me!”, she growls, a vein-popping on her forehead.
“Feh!”, he replies.
“Sit!”
“THUD!”, he goes as he is pulled face-first to the floor.
“What the hell…”
“I shouldn’t have tended to you when you were burning with a fever”, she says, closing her eyes.
His anger drained when she said that, ‘I was sick? And, she took care of me?’, he thinks, blinking in confusion.
“You should get more sleep, the sake is still in your system”, she says, gentler than before.
He blinks at her tone.
(Don’t go and fight! You’re injuries still haven’t healed!), a woman’s voice echoes in his mind.
He holds his head as he starts to feel light-head.
“You alright, InuYasha?”, she asks.
“I’m fine, just a little light-headed”, he replies, “Good night, Sakura”, he says, walking from the room, back to his own.
Who’s voice was that? Just hearing her voice makes my heart-pound!’, he thinks, holding a hand to his chest; over his rapidly-beating heart.
