Summary: Who ever thought Kouga would kidnap Kagome again?Kagome/Kouga
oOo
She didn't understand why she woke up on a pile of furs and she definitely didn't understand why she was in a cave that was only lit by the sun shining through the mouth of it. When she had fallen asleep the night before, they had been sleeping at the foot of a mountain, a rather specific mountain, it was where Kouga and his wolf clan lived.
"You're awake! That's good, I was just coming to get you!" She knew that voice, that baritone filled with happiness, it was Kouga.
"Kouga? What am I doing here?" She asked, voice a little husky from sleep.
Suddenly he was standing in front of her and she nearly fell over in surprise. He was handsome as ever, but the smile of his face was almost devious and his eyes were eager and giddy. She wasn't sure if she was nervous or excited, the wolf always brought out conflicted feelings in her.
"When I caught wind of your group traveling nearby I came down to check on you and I heard you telling your slayer friend about some celebration they have in your village that you are missing. You looked kind of sad so I decided that I would do something special for you." He offered her his hand and helped her to her feet to lead her out of the cave.
His hand was rough and warm in hers, it made her blush at little at the feel of it, "So what did you…do…for me…?"
If she hadn't been traveling in the Feudal Era for as long as she had, it wouldn't have seemed as romantic and would have even been terrifying. But she knew Kouga well and she remembered the conversation she had with Sango well enough to see what had happened here.
"…cut out hearts to decorate with…"
Check. There were actual hearts everywhere, but luckily they seemed to be the hearts of demons and animals, no human hearts. Still bloody and she was certain a few of them were still warm.
"…lots of sweets and…"
Sweets meant something not quite like chocolate to demons living off the land in the Feudal Era, so there were baskets of various fruits there for the taking. Apricots, peaches, apples, and oranges just to name a few of them. Oh, and sour plums, her favorite treat in this era!
"…it's all about romance!"
She supposed that there was a miscommunication on that part, or maybe romance meant something different with demons. It could just be her not opening her mind to the situation, but kidnapping a girl and setting up a fruity picnic surrounded by fresh cut hearts was not exactly romance. But then again, they had only just started and he was going off of what he had heard from her.
"So what do you think? This celebration of yours sounded a little strange for humans but whatever my woman wants, she gets!" He was so proud of what he had done, and he had done it all for her.
"Kouga," she said softly, "it is probably the nicest thing anyone has ever done for me. You didn't have to do any of this!"
He led her over to the fur he had laid out for them, "Yes I did. I know you laugh it off when I call you my woman but that is what you are! What I feel for you is like nothing I've ever felt before and I will do anything to make sure you are always happy."
His blue eyes were sincere as they looked into her and she suddenly felt warm all over, her heart thumping loudly and there were butterflies fluttering around in her stomach.
"Maybe…maybe I…oh geez, I can't even talk!" Her face flushed red, and she leaned in real quick and gave him an awkward closed-mouthed peck on the lips.
Kouga decided all his work had definitely paid off in that moment.
