InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Little Moments ❯ Rise and Shine! ( Chapter 25 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
So I decided to take a stab at a drabble series. I have been largely inspired by my favorite authoress, Forthright. I highly suggest you check out her stuff. Its amazing! This particular idea was given to me as I listened to "Little Moments" by Brad Paisley.
Explanation: This series will follow the first year of the newly mated couple of Kagome and Inuyasha. It will be small highlights throughout their relationship, moments when they remind each other why they love one another.
Disclaimer: I claim no ownership over these characters. They belong to the lovely Rumiko Takahashi! I just like to borrow them from time to time.
Updates will be short! You can expect to see a few updates a week unless otherwise noted. Now on with the show!

Little Moments – Rise and Shine!

Kagome hated mornings.

Unfortunately she has foolishly decided that she wanted to teach small children as her career, which inadvertently guaranteed that she would have to awaken at ungodly hours. But that didn't mean she had to like it.

It was still dark out, she mused in half dream-like delirium as she snuggled into her pillow. She was so warm, the bed so soft, that she positively did not want to move.

So she didn't.

With a content sigh she lulled back into her dreams of rainbows and unicorns and all was right with her world. That is, until she was poked quite unceremoniously in the ribs. She grumbled, curling in on herself and cocooning in the comforter away from the offending appendage. But alas, her retreat was not enough as the finger sought to end her slumber with another nudge. She really must do something about this.

Her arm flung out in a wild attempt to deck whoever was so rudely trying to wake her. How dare they? Did they not see that the sun had yet to rise? All her efforts earned her was a masculine snort. Her weary synapses tried to place the sound. Oh she groaned, turning away from her attacker, hoping he would take the hint.

However, the universe was never kind to her and that was probably why her leg was twitching uncontrollably as a claw traced ticklishly up the sole of her foot. She huffed, kicking out blindly. "Go away Inu. Not now," she mumbled, eyes already closing despite her annoyance.

She felt the bed dip as weight settled down next to her. Warm arms draped around her frame as a hard, very masculine body molded to her back. She melted with happiness.

"Kagome," her name huskily teased over her neck. She shook her head, not wanting to listen, but he persisted, louder this time. "Kagome, it's time to wake up."

Kagome growled rather impressively as she rolled over to face him, though the menace was diminished slightly as she was nose to chest with her frustratingly bothersome hanyou. Eyes adjusting to the darkness, she glared in the relative direction of his face. "Inuyasha, if you do not let me sleep, I swear on all that is holy that I will rip those fuzzy little ears off your head."

Inuyasha blinked before chuckling. He leaned closer, a smirk planted firmly on his face, though it was a shame she probably couldn't see it. "I just thought you'd like to know that it's 6:30."

Kagome gritted her teeth. "Well thank you, O' Keeper of Time, but I really don't care."

But he continued, despite her apparent exasperation. "It's 6:30...on Friday..."

Kagome opened her mouth to say something spectacularly nasty when her frazzled brain managed to process his words. Synapses fired. Friday...6:30 Friday morning...

Her eyes widen comically before she flew out of bed with a shriek, bedsheets flying in her haste. She was suppose to be up an hour ago! She was going to be late for school! Kagome bolted through the house in a whirlwind of activity, Inuyasha's laughter echoing around her.

Kagome really hated mornings, but Inuyasha liked them just fine.

A/N: I think this is my favorite and that's probably because it's very accurate. No I'm not a teacher, in fact I work at night, but I absolutely hate mornings, and being late. I simply do not understand morning people. It's so bright and sunny and early! Haha, thanks SplendentGoddess! I am a button-masher myself. No clear strategy, just hit buttons and hope for the best! Hope you liked this one ^_^
