Hothouse Flower
Ok, so I seem to have been dead for the past year and a half. Life got... a bit crazy and I've found inspiration to be difficult to come by. I wrote this a while back for a bit of a contest on LJ. People seemed to like it and it's kinda part of the Killer Inside Universe. And by Kinda I mean it might never happen but it's from that place. I believe the prompt for this was spring, and since the story itself takes place in the summer, I'd figured setting it in a greenhouse, a place of perpetual spring, might be appropriate.
I hope you like and I hope I can get back into writing again soon. I seriously miss it.

Hothouse Flower
There was no place on earth she felt more at home; it smelled of soil and growing things. The heat was nearly overwhelming but Kagome still shivered as she recalled Inuyasha's whispered request this afternoon. "Meet me in your greenhouse at midnight." Then with a smirk and a wink he was gone.
"You're early." His breath was hot on her ear as his arms wrapped around her waist. She leaned back and traced her hands over his, reveling in the feel of his skin.
"It's my greenhouse," she shot back, turning in his arms until she could see him. The light was dim, but she could still see his eyes. Silently, she leaned up and kissed him, desperate to see if the fire she'd felt this morning was still as hot as she'd remembered. The instant their lips touched, she felt it explode inside her.
He took control, slanting his mouth over hers and pulling her close. His hands traced long lines down her back, up her sides then back down to her hips where they flexed into her flesh as she moaned into him. When they came up for air, her vision was hazy. She felt intoxicated. The scent of moist earth and her plants, the heat in the air, the scent of Inuyasha's skin and the feel of his body against her; it all combined in a heady wave that left her reeling.
He breathed her name as he pulled her into another kiss, this time lowering her to the potting table. She felt the rough boards of the table against her bare shoulders then the weight of him settled over her. One of his arms slipped beneath her while the other was found the hem of her top. Her own hands worked their way under his shirt to caress the hot skin beneath. The tips of his claws found the underside of her breast and she gasped, arching beneath him.
His lips left hers, moving down her jaw to her neck and ear as he gently cupped her breast, teasing the already sensitive tip with his claws. She arched into him again and ground her hips against his, causing him to growl. Her hands caressed his back, nails occasionally leaving little half moons on his skin.
"Inu- Inuyasha," she moaned. He replied by licking and nipping his way down to the edge of her top. She felt his teeth scrape against her, high on her breast. His breath was heavy against her skin as he paused. Suddenly, he pulled her up to straddle his lap and stared into her eyes.
"Yash?"
"We agreed on slow this morning, for both of our sakes." Kagome nodded. "This is not slow." Looking down, Kagome shook her head. Pulling her chin up, he brushed his lips against hers in a gentle kiss. "We'll pick this up later, wench," he smirked. Then he helped her down from the table and stood with her under the flowering branches of a rose tree.
"I'll see you tomorrow, Kagome."
"I'll wait."
