"Your not going back and thats final!" bellowed the Hanyou, Inuyasha, as loud as he could without attracting too much attention.
"AARRGG!! Your so annoying! I'm going back and there is nothing you can do about it!" screamed Kagome in reply, not caring who heard her.
Inuyasha folded his arms into the sleeves of his kimono and growlled low in his throat. He was getting bored with all the arguing, it was getting him no where and fast. So far he had acomplished only in making Kagome extremely angry which was not what he had planned to do in the first place. All he really wanted to do was stop her from going back to her own time, because when she did go back she would go for days at a time. And weither he liked to admitt it or not, he missed her when she was gone. When Kagome was gone, it was like she took his strengh and happiness with her. So after thinking it through, Inuyasha decided that he wasn't going to let her go back any more, well at least not on her own anyways.
"Keh! Thats what you think! Just remember who's a Hanyou? Even if you ran off home, i would beat you to the well and drag your sorry ass back here, you idiot!" he snorted, smiling slyly.
Kagome pouted in anger. She hated the fact that, for once, Inuyasha was right. She cursed lightly under her breath but then smiled wickedly when an idea formed in her head.
"Yeah, i guess you right Inuyasha..." she began.
His ears pricked up, the side of his lips starting to curl into a tiny smile. Maybe she was going to stay after all.
"But just remember what happens when i say OSUWARI!!" (Osuwari means Sit for those who don't know!)
Maybe not. As the word left her mouth the Beads of Subjugation that hung from his neck glowed and plunged into the ground, bringing Inuyasha's face with them.
"OSUWARI! OSUWARI! OSUWARI! OSUWARI!!" yelled Kagome.
As the commands came, Inuyasha'a face impalled the soil with intense power, filling his mouth with dirt and creating one hell of a headache. Smiling, Kagome crouched beside the helpless Hanyou and patted his dog like head and giggled softly.
"Try and beat me now, Inuyasha! And don't you dare even think of following me!" she laughed.
Knowing that Inuyasha was most likley to kill her when he got up Kagome wasted no time in retreaving her backpack, which he had rudely taken from her, and ran for the well. She had already said her goodbyes to her fudal friends but she still hadn't had the chance to actually go home yet as Inuyasha had caught up with her and then the argument had started, delaying her trip home further. As she reached the well she took a final glance back to make sure he had not followed her. Seeing that she was alone she sighed and jumped into the depths of the well. A sparkling blue light emurged through the old well taking Kagome 500 years into the furture. Back to her own time period. Once in her own time, she lept from the well and out of the old shrine that was housing it. She ran as fast as she could to great her much missed family.
"Mum! Gramps! Sota! I'm back!" she called, whilst walking through her front door.
No reply. Removing her shoes and allowing her overly packed bag to fall on the floor she walked into the kitchen. No one seemed to be home.
"I guess it can't be helped if they've gone out." she said to herself.
Filling an empty glass with some cold water, Kagome noticed a letter on the table addressed to her.
"Kagome,I'm sorry you have returned and no one is home. We had a phone call from some old friends of mine and your grandfathers, so we have gone to stay with them for a week or so. Buyo is at a Cat-Care-Center so no need to worry about him.
Take care and be safe.
Love
Mum, Gramps and Sota
xxxxx
P.S: I brought you some more medical supplys, they are in your room."
Kagome smiled widely. Her mum always took care of things like that. Setting the letter down and gulping the last of her water she made her way upstairs to her bathroom.
"At least now i can have a hot soak in the bath with out getting interupted!" she thought,
Climing in, Kagome sighed with relaxation. It had been almost over two months since she was last home, in her own era. Meaning that it was over two months since she was able to take a bath without the threat of a demon attacking or some peverted boy who would think now would be a good time to take a peek. By boy she ment Miroku, the lechorous Houshi that accompanied her and Inuyasha on their travels, along with Sango, the Yokai Taijiya, Shippo the tiny Kitsune and Kirara the two tailed Neko Yokai. Sometimes that "boy" would become Inuyasha but that had only seemed to happen in the last few weeks or so. Dunking her head beneath the water, Kagome releshed the privacy and the tempurature of the water as much as she could.
Meanwhile, Inuyasha had finally got himself out of the crator he had made and ran as fast as he could to the Bone Eater's Well. The portal between Kagome's time period and his.
"I swear, Kagome. You are gonna get it soooo bad when i find you!! You won't even know whats hit you!!" he roared.
Rinsing the last of the suds from her long raven coloured hair, Kagome finished washing and got out of the bath. Grabbing the only towel that was there, she wrapped it around herself. Sure it was short, okay it was tiny but no one else was home other than her, so why should she care? The towel just about covered her torso and stopped a few inches below her bottom. It was covering everything, well almost, but it was better than walking around naked! After blow drying her hair she made her way to her bedroom. Once in, she stopped just before her woredrobe and without any thought at all, she went to drop her towel when she heard a light cough behind her.
Kagome turned, with her towel slightly dropped, to see Inuyasha sitting on her bed. A vibrant pink splashed across his hansome features.
"AAAHHHH!! INUYASHA YOU PERVERT!!" she screamed, throwing what ever she could get a hold of.
Unfortunatly in doing so she accidently let go of her towel, causing it to drop lifelessy on the floor. Inuyasha's eyes grew wide and quickly scanned over her flawless figure. His face now blending in with his kimono.
"AAAHHH!! GET OUT!!" yelled Kagome, retreaving her towel and covering her self once again with her cheeks just as red as his.
Looking away quickly, Inuyasha spoke while folding his arms across his chest.
"W-well its not like i've never seen you naked before, is it?!" he began "A-and anyways. T-this gets you back for "sitting" me b-back there!!" he continued, stuttering terribly.
Kagome's blood started to boil. How could he even begin to think that her "sitting" him was anywhere near as bad as this!? And the fact that he didn't seem in a hurry to leave either was almost to much to handle. If at all possible, steam would have been coming out of her ears.
"Inuyasha! I said get out!!" she yelled, not as loud as before but still loud enough for someone, if they were downstairs, to hear.
"Oh for god sake. If you stopped moaning and just got the hell dressed then this would be over and done with! And i'm not looking so you don't have to worry about that either!" snaped Inuyasha, sticking his perfectly shapped nose in the air.
Turning her back to him, so that she face her bedroom door, Kagome sighed deeply. Looks like she was going to have to get dressed somewhere else as there was no way in hell that she was going to get dressed infront of him! But something in her mind was begging her not to go, but to stay exactly where she was. And what she didn't know what that Inuyasha was hoping for the same thing.
"What is this feeling? Its like my body has a mind of its own. It won't move. I refuse to get dressed infront of Inuyasha! I absolutly refuse!! B-but why? I mean he has seen me naked before..." thought Kagome, blushing deeply while in deep thought.
"Kagome, your going to catch cold if you don't get dressed soon." said Inuyasha wrapping his arms around her and breaking her from her thoughts.
At his touch she flinched slightly but then soon relaxed. Both blushed wildly but reframed form moving. Something was calling out to the two. Something they had never felt before. Leaning into his embrace, Kagome sighed happily. She had always dreamt that Inuyasha would hold her like this and now that it was coming true she was not about to waste the chance she had been given. The feel of his heart beating against her back was soothing and seemed to calm the deepest parts of her soul.
"Inuyasha..." she whispered.
With his sensitive hearing, it was obvious he would hear it. Just hearing her say his name made his heart swell. Something about this moment seemed so right, Kagome was at last in his arms where she belonged and yet at the same time it felt so wrong. Not only was she alone with him but she was practically butt naked, with only a towel covering herself. Feeling him tense up, Kagome snapped out of her dreamy trance and was brought harshly back to reality. Quickly, she pushed herself from his hold blushing furiously she spoke.
"I..Uh...I'm sorry...I...Don't know...What came over me." she stuttered and with that she ran from her room.
Inuyasha couldn't say anything. He was completely lost for words. Sighing and sitting back on Kagome's bed he began to think.
"What the hell was that? Dammit, your such an idiot! You had the perfect chance to tell her how you feel and you blow it! Oh, god. What if she won't talk to me now? I mean i did kinda just hold her while she was practiacally naked!!" he mentally slapped himself, before lying back against her bed "Man, i'm never gonna forget that feeling though. The way she looked, smelt. Oh, and the way she felt. Her skin was just like a rose petal. AHH!! What the hell am i doing!? I shouldn't be thinking these things, i'm not Miroku for god sake!! Whats the matter with me lately? I need to get a grip. Like Kagome would ever think of doing stuff with me. Koga, maybe but me definatly not. I'm nothing but a worthless Hanyou. I should learn to keep that in mind..." he continued, sighing deeply.
Wondering if Kagome was alright, he sat up and left the room. A sudden wave of guilt swept over him. On opening the door the smell of salty tears hit him like a sack of rocks. He didn't have to be a genius to know why she was crying. It was obvious it was because of him. Walking up to the bathroom, he gently opened the door. When he looked in he saw that Kagome was crying silently on the floor. She was now fully clothed but it looked as though she was going to have to re-dress as she had drenched herself if tears. With her knees brought up to her chest, arms wrapped around them and her head leaning against her arms, the sight was almost enough to bring Inuyasha to his knees in sorrow. Lifting her head, Inuyasha saw the tears that he so hated running freely down her delicate cheeks. How he wished he could just click his clawed fingers and all the sorrow in her life would just disappear and leave nothing but the happiness she deserved. Building up the courage to speak, he lifted her chin and gazed into her dark chocolate eyes. They were filled with every emotion possible that was related to sadness.
"Kagome..."
