"You... mean that ..you already want Kagome to be your life mate?" Miroku asked surprised.
.
There was silence for a minute before Inuyasha answered
.
"It doesn't matter if I do or not, Kagome would not want to be with a half-breed like me anyway." Inuyasha said with a hint of sadness in his voice as he pushed the chair back a little and got off of it.
.
'He still has yet to give me a direct answer.' Miroku thought as he followed Inuyasha to the bookcase to put the book back onto the shelf. 'I'll just ask him again later, I don't want to get on his bad side, right now anyway.' Miroku thought again
.
"Lets go back to the kitchen Kagome should be done by now, so she is probably waiting for me there." Inuyasha said as he walked to the door with Miroku at his heels.
.
Once they got to the kitchen they saw Kagome standing up against the wall across from the glass door with her arms crossed across her chest, gazing out of the door, and into the dark and cloudy afternoon sky. Noticing that Inuyasha and Miroku had walked into the room Kagome tore her gaze away from the door and looked at them.
.
"Hey sorry I didn't get here right away, have you been here a long time?" Inuyasha asked as he watched Kagome step forward closer to them.
.
"No I just got here a little bit ago, no more then ten minutes." Kagome said.
.
"Alright now you wanted me to show you where Sango's room is right?" Inuyasha asked Kagome.
.
"Yea" Kagome replied.
.
"Oh Oh I'll lead the way lady Kagome." Miroku said jumping at the chance to visit Sango's room.
.
"Don't get any ideas Miroku because I don't feel like disposing of your body once Sango gets done with you." Inuyasha said breathlessly
.
"I am appalled that you would think I would do anything like that." Miroku said as innocently as possible.
.
"Yea Yea Yea just lead the way if you want to so bad." Inuyasha said as he pushed Miroku slightly to make him start to move.
.
"Fine Fine Im going." Miroku said as he started to lead the way to Sango's room with Kagome and Inuyasha right behind him.
.
Arriving at Sango's room a minute later, Miroku knocked on the door. A second later a cheery looking Sango opened the door. She looked at Miroku and Inuyasha with a questionable glance before she spotted Kagome hiding behind Inuyasha. Pushing past Inuyasha and Miroku, Sango quickly pulled Kagome into her room and told the guys to go away and come back later.
.
"Wow your room is so cool." Kagome said as she looked Sango's room.
.
It was a normal sized bedroom with a canopy queen size bed bed against the middle wall with a magenta comforter. Her walls were a shade of light goldish brown, with a few poster of people that Kagome did not recognize. She also had a light colored desk with various items scattered across it along with a dresser to the right of it, also covered in miscellaneous items. On the back wall to the left there was a small book shelf filled with different books.
.

"I' dont feel like being tidy right now so sorry if it is kinda messy." Sango said as she led Kagome to her bed to sit down.
.
"I like it." Kagome said looking around the room.
.
"Which room are you staying in?" Sango asked as she watched Kagomes gaze fall to her.
.
"Umm..well right now..I'm staying in Inuyasha's room." Kagome said as a light blush crept to her cheeks.
.
"Why didn't he give you your own room?" Sango asked very aware of the blush on her friends cheeks.
.
"His dad..well I think it was his dad...told him that I had to and he wasn't allowed to give me my own room, I don't know why though." Kagome said softly as she dropped her gaze to the bedspread.
.
"Hmm..ya you probably met..Inuyasha's father..because I don't think Sesshomaru is back from wherever he went." Sango said
.
"Who's Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked looking up at Sango.
.
"Oh..Sesshomaru is Inuyasha's half brother, he's really silent and cold to people he doesn't like, but he wont mess with you as long as you don't edge him on...Inuyasha does that a lot..so don't be surprised if you see them quarreling back and forth a few times." Sango explained.
.
"Oh..so Inuyasha and Sesshomaru don't get along?" Kagome asked.
.
"Not usually...every once and a while they will be civil to each other but other then that they are at each others throats, well it mostly Inuyasha that is yelling while Sesshomaru just stands there and takes it and then once in a while he will throw in a smart ass comment to get Inuyasha started all over again." Sango said
.
"Oh. Ok." Kagome replied glancing out the window at the darkened sky, that threatened rain.
.
"Well I have a question for you now..Do you like Inuyasha?" Sango asked eyeing Kagome.

With Inuyasha and Miroku

.
Inuyasha and Miroku were sitting quietly in the living room watching T.V. while they left Sango and Kagome alone while they talked in Sango's room.
.
"Hey Inuyasha." Miroku said.
.
"What?" Inuyasha said keeping his gaze on the T.V. while he listened to what his friend next to him was saying.
.
"You never answered my question earlier." Miroku stated.
.
"And what would that be." Inuyasha said annoyed.
.
"You never gave me a 'Yes or No' answer on whether or not you wanted Kagome as your life mate or not." Miroku stated.
.
Inuyasha's body stilled a little, as he turned his attention from the T.V. to Miroku.
.
"Or." Inuyasha said before returning his eyes back to the T.V.
.
"Or?.....WAIT..you can not pick 'or'!!!! It's either 'Yes No' one of those two words 'or' is not an option! So its 'Yes No' just pick either the three letter word or the two letter word that begins with 'n' not 'o'. " Miroku explained frustrated. 'Why wont he just give me a straight answer' Miroku thought as he watched Inuyasha sigh and close his eyes.
.
"It's complicated..I can't just say yes and I can't say no..do you know why they put that a slave could be free if a demon makes them their life mate?" Inuyasha questioned Miroku.
.
"No" Miroku answered curious to what Inuyasha was going to say.
.
"They put that in there because..a demons blood picks their mate..they technically do not pick their mate themselves..its instinct..and a demon can not just mate with a human..just like that... they have to actually 'be' their real life mate, and it is rare for a demon to have a human mate that they actually 'own', they usually have to search for them." Inuyasha explained.
.
"So what your saying is that a demons blood and instinct picks their life mate, and they can not just choose someone to mate with, and that if they want a certain person to be their mate their demon blood has to agree?" Miroku asked stunned.
.
"That's right.." Inuyasha said turning his gaze off the T.V. and to Miroku.
.
"What happens if you try to mate with someone who your demon blood does not agree with?" Miroku asked.
.
"They die." Inuyasha said calmly.
.
"What!! So you mean if the person is not your life mate..or you demon blood does not agree with your choice then the person who you try to mate with dies?" Miroku said in a disbelieving voice.
.
"Yea.. that is why I can not say that I want Kagome to be my life mate..because of the sheer fact that I do not know for sure if she is my life mate..she might be.. but it's harder for me to tell if she is or not because my demon blood is not as strong because I am only half demon so I wont be able to tell if she is until one of two things happen...One: is if my demon blood comes to the surface because something happens to Kagome because only your mate is supposed to be able to trigger the type of reaction....and Two: Is when (if) I get an over whelming urge to mark her" Inuyasha stated simply
.
"So you wont be able to tell right away..in other words your demon blood will have to know the person longer to be able to tell?" Miroku asked.
.
"yes, and that is why I could not answer you question earlier." Inuyasha said turing back to the T.V.
.
"Alright, that's all I need to hear." Miroku said.

With Sango and Kagome
.

.
.
"Umm..yea..I like him he's nicer then any of my other masters that I go." Kagome said quietly.
.
"No No...not like that I mean do like him?" Sango said as she emphasized the word like, which Kagome automatically knew what she was talking about.
.
"No I don't like him like that." Kagome said as she looked away from Sango so that she wouldn't see the slight blush that crept to her cheeks.
.
"You sure?' Sango asked seeing her blush.
.
"Yes" Kagome said still not looking directly at Sango.
.
"Really sure?" Sango pressed again.
.
"yes." Kagome said with a slight frustration.
.
"Really Really Sure.?" Sango said again
.
"Yes" Kagome said clearly getting annoyed
.
"Really Really Really Sure?" Sango said again
.
.
"Urgh..Ok maybe I like him a little bit, but just a little bit, I mean come one I haven't known him for more then 48hours!" Kagome said dramatically.
.
"Finally you admit it, I was annoying myself with the whole 'really thing' and I only said it three times." Sango said. 'So she does like Inuyasha I was right..hehe that gives me an idea.' Sango thought happily.
.
Sango and Kagome talked for a few more hours until they went to go met up with the guys again.
.
.
"Either of you two hungry?" Inuyasha asked once he noticed that Kagome and Sango were back.
.
"No we ate a little bit ago." Kagome said looking at the clock above the T.V. which said 8:23p.m in bright red letters.
.
"Alright I was just making sure because there is some food in the kitchen that the cooks made, if you were hungry, me and Miroku already ate." Inuyasha said watching Kagome and Sango as they stopped beside the couch.
.
"Well I don't know about any of you but I am going to go to bed." Miroku said getting up off of the couch.
.
"Yea me to" Sango said.
.
"Good night Kagome, good night Inuyasha" Miroku and Sango said exiting the living room.
.
"So are you tired too?" Inuyasha asked Kagome who was still standing next to the couch.
.
"Yea." Kagome said sitting down next to Inuyasha on the couch.
.
.
"Alright lets go to sleep then." Inuyasha said getting up off the couch.
.
"Okay." Kagome said following Inuyasha to their bedroom.
.
.
Four hours later Inuyasha was awaken slightly by the sound of someone whimpering and the scent of fear. Figuring it was just his imagination he was about to go back to sleep when he realized it was Kagome, his eyes flashed red for a second before turing back to their normal color. Looking next to him on the bed he didn't see Kagome.
.
'If she got hurt somehow I wont be able to forgive myself especially since I was right here.' Inuyasha thought.
.
Sitting up quickly Inuyasha looked around the dark room for Kagome, upon hearing another whimper, he looked over next to his side of the bed to see Kagome cradled against the wall, shaking.
.
"Kagome!" Inuyasha said quickly untangling himself from the comforter and rushing to her side.
.
"Kagome, are you ok...what happened?" Inuyasha asked as he gently brought Kagome into his arms to try to stop her from shaking.
.
.
Suddenly a loud clash was heard throughout the whole house, making Kagome grip onto Inuyasha's white t-shirt that he wore to bed. Looking around the room for the source that scared Kagome, he looked out the window near Kagome's side of the bed and saw a huge storm raging outside. Holding Kagome tighter Inuyasha asked softly, " Kagome, are you scared of the storm?"
.
A quick nod of Kagome's head sent a wave of relief wash over him. 'She's only scared of the storm..thank god..that was the only thing.' Inuyasha thought as he finally got Kagome to stop shaking.
.
"Here you can sleep right next to me, I wont let anything happen to you ok?" Inuyasha asked Kagome.
.
"Ok" Kagome's voice replied shakily. As Inuyasha carefully picked her up and laid her down on his side of the bed, while he carefully laid next to her and brought her closer to him while he wrapped his arms around her.
.
.
"Better?" Inuyasha asked Kagome as he laid his head down next to hers.
.
"Yes..Thank you.." Kagome said quietly
.
"It's fine, I dont mind" Inuyasha said softly as he watched Kagome slowly fall asleep before falling asleep himself.
.
.
