*INFO* Sorry this is posted late! I woke up and didn't go back to sleep for the whole day and plus I'm super tired! So, when I went to take a nap, I didn't get up until now. Also, I'm watching Beauty and the Beast (So InuKag like except there are many stories related to that movie on here). Anyway, Loved that movie since I was little and now I'm posting this. As requested, more InuYasha :D

Our Forbidden Temptations

Secret Kept

InuYasha walked down the hall, towards his father's office. Tension built up in his shoulders when he opened the door and his father's chair was turned backwards, as if he was the Godfather or something. All he needed was a cat. InuYasha laughed at this and then bowed as his father turned around.
"Where were you last night? You missed everything. The guests wanted to meet you."
"I uh...I was just.." He scratched his head, trying to come up with an excuse.
"You just wanted to miss another marriage interview. You need to seriously start thinking about marriage if you plan on taking over the business."
"Well, I don't want it. Why not let Sesshomaru have it?"
"I have my reasons. Now go. I have work that needs to be done." He waved InuYasha away and then picked up his pen. InuYasha slowly backed away and walked out the door, slamming it behind him.
'That child..' Mr. Taisho thought and picked up where he left off.
Meanwhile, InuYasha had the brilliant idea to go out to the market and buy ramen. Why? He didn't even know..he just craved it for the moment. He snuck past the guards and headed out the back door, towards the Gion district.

Kagome bowed and waited for Lady Kaede to say something. She practiced all morning and was ready for a break. Hopefully she got the dance moves right after hours of Sango yelling at her.
"It has improved..Work a little bit harder at it. Now, I need you to go to the market for some more rice. Rin ate the last of it." She shook her head in disappointment and handed Kagome some money. Both bowed and she grabbed her shoes by the door. She hated wearing them but it gave her practice.
'Only 2 more weeks..' she thought and opened the door. It was very cloudy and looked like it could rain any second. She didn't dare run though; those shoes were too dangerous.
'Maybe I need to carry an umbrella..Nah. I'll be back soon.' She picked up her kimono and headed down the street.

InuYasha looked around at all of the markets that were set up. He had never been in the Gion district by himself before. He had always had people get the items or he was heavily guarded. Why? He didn't need it. It wasn't as if he was on someone's hit list. He hoped.. He would pick up items, look at them, and put them back. Old ladies tried to sell him things and even a prostitute came up to him. He was about to give up,until he saw a ramen resturaunt near the corner of the street. A wide smile spread across his face as he imagined himself eating 20 bowls of ramen. His dream was interrupted when someone bumped into him, nearly knocking him down.
"Hey!" he yelled, rubbing his shoulder.
"Gomenasai!" she bowed," I'm still not used...to these shoes." Kagome glanced up and let out a big sigh when she saw those same pairs of eyes that were new to her last night. InuYasha looked at her one more time until he realized that it was that same person he knocked down last night.
"It's fine. A payback for knocking you down last night?" He sheepishly smiled.
"Yeah..I guess." Kagome chuckled and noticed one of her geta came off,"Oh!" she bent down to pick it up but his hand touched it first, with her hand on his. She pulled away quickly and turned her head. She was blushing? InuYasha gulped and stood the sandal up, waving for Kagome to slide her foot into it.
"Thanks..."
"No problem. How can you even walk in those?"
"It's hard so I'm walking in them now to get used to them."
"Oh. Is there a festival coming up or something?" InuYasha looked confused as to why she was dressed in a gorgeous kimono. Kagome was even more confused. How had he not-wait. She touched her face and then looked at her fingers, no makeup. She didn't put any on today. Is that why he had-but he saw her last night with makeup on. Was he that stupid?
"Uh..yeah." Liar. She smacked her head and mumbled 'stupid' over and over again.
"Ok..what's the name of it?"
"Uh..I always forget the name of it. Is it really that important?"
"Well..If you say it isn't. I'm about to go eat some ramen over at that resturaunt. Want to tag along?" he pointed down the street. Kagome looked down and then realized it was the one across from her okiya. She didn't want him to anything. Why was she being so selfish? Why didn't she want him to know? She sighed and realized she still needed to buy some rice.
"Uh. I have rice I need to buy and my okaa-san is waiting for me."
"Oh. Well, want me-" Rain started to fall.
"Oh! Not the kimono..It's new.." Kagome sighed and then was pulled forward. InuYasha had grabbed her hand and was thrusting her forward, running for shelter. He ran to the ramen place after all and they ducked inside.
"Ohayo!" They answered. They then walked to the front to find a spot at the counter. Kagome was getting stares from the customers as they watched her walk by. She had never really been inside at any place to eat. She usually went to outside markets to buy everything.
"Eat. My treat." InuYasha grabbed a menu and started skimming through.
"No. I couldn't.."
"But it's raining really hard outside so you might as well eat."
"I don't live far from here so I think I'll-" InuYasha grabbed her arm as she started to get up.
"Eat." He seriously said in his gruff voice.
"Fine. But I'm going to order the most expensive thing on the menu!" She stuck her tongue at him and then picked up the menu.
'Nothing on here is expensive' InuYasha thought as he looked at each price. Of course everything would look cheap to him. He was rich. But her, is this normal? He glanced at Kagome, who had an evil smile on her face. He chuckled. This wouldn't put a dent in his bank account but it would most defintely to her.
They ordered and started eating while making small talk.
"So, what is your family like?" InuYasha slurped his noodles.
"Uh..well..I come from a big family. I have an okaa-san and I have a sister/teacher too. What about you?" Kagome really didn't want to tell him she was a maiko, about to become a geisha, because that might ruin whatever '-ship' they have now.
"Well..I have a Father and a half-brother. That's just about it. What does your okaa-san do?"
"She uh.." Kagome thought of a relation between okaa-sama and another job," She teaches..uh..dance, song, and instruments...hehe..."
"Right..uh.." he looked outside and realized the rain stopped. Then an idea popped in his head," by the way", he slowly got out of his chair," YOU'RE PAYING!" He yelled and ran out the door, hiding behind a nearby lamp post. Kagome didn't know what just happened but ran out the door, passing him. He snickered and walked back in, paying for the ramen. He walked back out and watched as she ran, looking in every alleyway and behind every market. He smiled and walked towards the gate.
'Until another day, mystery girl.' He walked out and headed in the direction of his home.
Kagome ran back inside the shop and pulled some money out.
"Oh. Don't worry. That boy you were with came back and paid for it." The cook smiled and turned to cook more ramen.
'That sly boy..' she thought and put the money back in her obi. She walked another half mile before reaching the okiya. She slid open the door and sat at the stoop, taking her getas off and rubbing her feet. Then she realized why she felt empty.
"The rice!" she yelled and sighed as she put her getas back on and headed outside, this time with an umbrella.
