Inuyasha became engrossed in Kagome's diary from the beginning. He noticed she had written almost everyday since the moment she met Inuyasha. When he read about her touching his velvet soft ears, his cheeks flushed a bright pink. After a moment, he cleared his throat and continued to read on. He knew he wasn't going to get caught reading Kagome's diary because she was busy cooking for him until he began reading aloud.

"I said my true feelings about Inuyasha today. That stupid baby got the best of me, but lost in the process. Still, I said I loved Inuyasha. I mean, I hope he didn't hear me but I did want him to hear me. Love is confusing. I wonder what his feelings are towards me. I know he loves Kikyo but still I'm more alive than she'll ever be." He started skipping pages.

"Kikyo finally died last night. I kind of regret hating her now. She was only doing what was best for the jewel and Inuyasha, but ended up dying without the jewel."

A few pages later, he noticed it was the day before. "I was allowed to go home, but ended up being by myself and all my friends are busy. I'd go back to see Inuyasha again but I said I was gonna come back for school, only to find out we all have a day off." She didn't write anything else on that page, but there was something on the back.

"I had that dream again. I was in a dark space, alone. I felt scared, wanting to wish I could see Inuyasha again. I want to talk with someone about this but I'm too scared I'll be judged as crazy."
Kagome shouted from downstairs. "Food's ready!" Inuyasha dropped the diary and ran downstairs excitedly. Kagome prepared a wonderful stew with white steamed rice and various fried meats.

During dinner, Inuyasha couldn't help but watch Kagome eat slowly. Kagome was something else in his mind. Her dark locks kept him mesmerized. Sometimes he would catch himself staring at her from afar.

Inuyasha was about to take a sip of his tea when he spilled it all over himself. Feeling clumsy he stood up. "Oh shit!"

Kagome blushed intensely. "You can use the bathroom upstairs. I'll get you some clothes to wear." As Inuyasha ran upstairs, Kagome went into her room and grabbed a plastic bag filled with modern clothes she bought him that he refused to wear. She pulled out a set of pajamas and placed them on the table in the bathroom. A door seperated the bath from the toilet and sink, so she wasn't able to see him undress. She saw his shadow through the semi transparent door. Her face became flushed.

"Y-you're clothes are right here on this table." Before Inuyasha could respond, Kagome closed the door quickly and went back downstairs to clean up the floor and chair where the clumsy half demon spilled his drink.

20 minutes later, Kagome goes upstairs and cleans up the bedroom so Inuyasha could sleep on the floor next to her bed. She wasn't sure if Inuyasha would stay or not though, but the thought made her feel safe.

"Hey, what's this on the floor?" Inuyasha walks in, drying off his human hair. Kagome blushed and turned around.

"I was kind of hoping you'd stay with me. I'm alone here and I don't want to be." Kagome avoided his eyes. Inuyasha understood what she meant so he nodded in agreement. Kagome stumbled into her bed after she turned the lights off.

"Could you read me a story, Kagome?" Inuyasha asked as he settled into bed on the floor. Kagome turned on her nightstand lamp and picked a children's book from the book shelf.

"Alright, we'll read an American favorite of mine called Sleeping Beauty." Inuyasha smiled as he listened to her soothing reading voice.

I wrote this to keep myself from being bored. I've been planning to move from Florida to Texas. I'll write more when I can. Please review if you'd like, but you don't have to. :)
