Title: He'll Never Tell

Summary: A little innocent contest is harmless right? Oh,how wrong they were. Confession leads to passion... Soon InuYasha and Kagome find their love being put to the test by enemies who don't approve of this new bond between a human and a halfdemon.

Disclaimer: (Pulls out a spy-kit and walks up to a large metal door) Alright guys listen up (start using small laser to pick the lock) I heard from a friend who knows a guy who knows a guy who knows Rumiko Takahashi who really owns InuYasha that he's in here. That's right the InuYasha is in this room right here! Once I get it open, I'll get back to you... (drops laser and burns hand) Kuso! Shimatta! Jigoku ni otousu! Anata no abazureon'na (continues cursing laser in Japanese)

The old version of "He'll Never Tell," is now known as "Loves True End".

Enjoy!

Chapter 1:

How Much Can a Hanyou Drink?

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

"Well, then I'll make a bet with you," stated a proud Kagome to InuYasha, "I bet I could drink more that you, without keeling over."

He raised an eyebrow in disbelief, "You sure you want to do that? I am half-demon after all."

She nodded. They were, in fact, in the middle of a very pointless argument over who was tougher, who could live with out whom, etc. Of course they both knew the answer. It was simple: InuYasha was tougher, and could handle much more sake than her. But as for who could live without who? The answer: each was hopeless without the other.

"All right," he grinned broadly. He loved a challenge. "If I win, you have to one thing for me. And it has to be whatever I want."

"Well that's usually how it goes," she mumbled

"What-?"

"And if I win," Kagome said a little louder, "You have to kiss Miroku."

He winced at the idea, but agreed nonetheless, knowing he would win.

Kaede wasn't at the village at the present time, so that meant a bit of sin wasn't to be lectured. And Miroku was also present, along with Sango, was hoping for a bit of sin 24/7. He glanced temptingly over at his fiancé's backside.

Sango herself thought this was a bit extreme of Kagome. It was obvious who would win this contest. InuYasha could handle his liquor. But Kagome, in their last situation involving sake broke in to song, and then repeatedly "sat" the poor hanyou. Sango felt a bit guilty for the whole "sit"-uation (a/n: get it? "sit"-uation. Haha, I'm so funny.) It was because of her he had suffered Kagome's terrible wrath. She had unknowingly grasped onto him and whispered that she would like to go "party", as she had put it.

"Okay, Sango," said Kagome, "You pour me my sake and Miroku-"

"Will pour me mine," InuYasha finished for her.

Sango and Miroku obeyed, and it was pretty easy at first. Kagome didn't really care for the rice wine, but she really didn't mind the taste enough to give up. The truth was she wasn't really thinking about what the outcome could be. She was just smart in that way.

InuYasha however knew exactly what the outcome would be. (At least that's what he thought.) He was hanyou. It was a well known fact that sake had no effect on demons. However, half-demons were another story.

What none of them knew was Sango was pouring herself a few drinks in between. There were times when Miroku would glance at her from the corner of his eye, but he didn't really think much of it. That is, until she started to sway a bit. Her cheeks grew rosy. Everything was a joke to her.

"Sango maybe you better slow down," Miroku suggested, "After all, you aren't even in this competition."

She laughed again. "Oh, Miroku," she swooned in an oddly high pitched voice, "It's (hic) fine."

Kagome was in a similar state. She was actually a bit ahead of Sango.

She danced wildly around the small hut in a way that was sort of her own modern thing, mixed with a bit of a tribal dance. Her head was banging, with hair flying all around her. Her feet were barely hitting the ground as she constantly jumped and spun in circles around InuYasha.

"Thank you!" she screamed waving to no one, her voice cracking slightly, "I love you all! Thank you, thank you!"

InuYasha wasn't sure who she was talking to, but he couldn't help but notice, with her being so close, how much curvier her figure was than he remembered.

Kagome screamed one last time before dropping exhaustedly to her hanyou's side. Her face was red from the jumping and running. Her neck glistened and shimmered with sweat. Her breath was quick and heavy. She was everything she had been in his most secret fantasies. The only difference was, she hadn't been dancing then.

"InuYasha," she whispered leaning her head over onto his shoulder, "I think you-..."

She broke off.

His whole body stiffened to her touch as if in shock. Her unfinished words were repeating in his mind over and over again.

"What?" he asked his heart pounding.

"I think you won."

His eyes widened in disbelief. She had said he won. She had given into their little contest, and now she would have to do whatever he wanted.

"So," she whispered in his ear.

They were close now. A bit too close. He could smell the sake off her. He could feel the warmth of her breath against his face.

"What do want me to do?"

Now, it may have just been the sake going to his head, but what he truly wanted from her was-...

No... He'll never tell...
