Chapter 225: Sweet

Kagome woke to freckles. “Erm… good morning, Kohaku-kun.”

“Inuyasha’s here. They went off together.” His smile held apology. “I used to help keep Rin warm, too.”

“That’s sweet.”

He glanced up. “Shishi says it’s a dog thing.”

Kagome couldn’t help giggling. “Are we being treated like puppies?”

“I am. Rin was. Maybe even Jaken-sama.” His smile turned teasing. “Not you, though.”

She blushed. “Erm… I’m not sure.”

When she tried to ease away, his arms tightened. “Kagome-sama, while he is away, may I ask a personal question.”

“S-sure?”

“What do you write in that book you always carry with you?”
