Chapter Two: A Long Night

Inuyasha sat on the bed, completely bewildered. His ears twitched rapidly, and deep red blush lines appeared on his face. Kagome drew back out of his dog ears, the twitching tickling her nose.

"Wh-what do you mean, Kagome?" Inuyasha asked, hoping that she didn't mean him singing. She smiled at him very broadly.

"I think you know what I mean, Inuyasha. You were singing, weren't you?" Inuyasha nodded his head, quickly gaining back his self composure.

"So, what of it? It's no big deal." He folded his arms into the clothes Kagome had given him.

"There's no reason to blush, Inuyasha," Kagome said, still smiling. Inuyasha's blush returned. He was stuck. There was no way he could get out of it. Kagome had heard him.

"Well, then, just forget about it, okay? It was a one time thing. That's all." Inuyasha said, as if ending the matter.

"What ever you say, Elvis, I'm going to get your clothes." Kagome walked out of the room, and back to the laundry room.

"Elvis?" Inuyasha said, completely confused.


Kagome came back into the room about five minutes later. She didn't have his clothes. She looked at Inuyasha sheepishly.

"Inuyasha, promise you want get mad at me?" she asked, looking at the half-demon who was reading her book, which was entitled, The Tale of Genji. He looked up as she said this.

"Why, Kagome, what did you do?" he asked, suspicious.

"Oh, I didn't do anything. But the drier did."

"The drier?"

"Yeah, see, I went to fetch your clothes out of the drier and, well, something went wrong?" Kagome fiddled with the hem of her shirt, looking down at the floor.

"What happened?"

"Your clothes shrunk," she said in an almost inaudible voice. Inuyasha's face contorted with anger.

"WHAT!? What do you mean they shrunk? How could you do that, Kagome?"

"It wasn't my fault. I didn't know that would happen, your robe can stand through anything, right? Maybe it will grow large again."

"You better hope it does," fumed Inuyasha. "I don't want to wear these clothes back to the feudal era. They make me look fat!"

"Not really," Kagome said, "They don't make you fat, well, they make your butt fat, but that's about it." She said this in low voice, as if talking to herself. Inuyasha was stunned speechless. He lied down on Kagome's bed, taking a nap.


Inuyasha sat bolt upright in bed. He looked around at the clock, seeing that it was eight o clock at night. The lights were out in the room, but he heard the TV talking downstairs. He got out of bed and turned on the lights, Kagome must have let him sleep.

He walked down the stairs, thinking deeply about the milk in the fridge. How good that would taste right now! He walked into the living room, seeing Kagome's family watching the TV.

"Hey, Inuyasha," Sota said, seeing the half-demon come into the living room. Inuyasha glanced at him, still thinking about the milk that was housed in the fridge. Inuyasha said hey and Sota and Kagome followed him into the kitchen. Inuyasha poured himself a glass of milk.

He finished the milk, staring blankly at Sota and Kagome, who were looking at him with intensity.

"What?" Inuyasha finally asked. Sota leapt forward.

"I heard that you sung, Inuyasha. Is it true?" Inuyasha twitched his ears. It was going to be a long night.
