Kagome's eyes opened slowly and as soon as the sunlight hit them she shut them quickly. She turned away from the light and into a well toned chest.
Kagome slowly opened her eyes and looked up at InuYasha. She groaned loudly and he raised a brow at her.
"What am I doing in your bed?" She asked sitting up.
"Well good morning to you too sunshine." He said sarcastically.
"Did we do something last night?" she said from the bathroom
He looked at her for a moment. "You really don't remember?"
"If I remembered I wouldn't have asked." She said sitting on the bed again.
InuYasha pulled her next to him and said "Well we could do a re-enactment and you can make those wonderful noises for me again." And kissed her neck.
Kagome blushed. "I know we didn't sleep together."
"And how do you know that?"
"Because I would be able to….because I'd just know ok."
"No, you'd be able to what?"
"I'd uh….still be able to….you know…feel…it." She said looking at anything but him.
"So how many people have you had sex with?" he asked catching on.
"Why is that any of your concern?" She asked sternly.
"Because I want to know."
"Well it's none of your business." She said sliding away from him.
"That many huh?" he teased.
"No! I've only had sex with one person thank you very much, you idiot." She said heated.
He slid closer to her and pulled her on top of him. "Shame, you look like you could really take it." He said pushing her down on his pelvic area.
Kagome's mouth dropped but she couldn't move because he had a strong grip on her hips. She tried to clench her legs together but her effort was pointless, seeing as she was basically straddling him.
He started moving his hips and she bit her lip.
"Ah, w-wait a minute." She finally choked out.
He pulled her close and started kissing on her neck.
She leaned into him for a moment and then her rational side caught up with her and she jerked back.
"Whoa, I can't make this mistake."
"Mistake?" he said irritated.
"Yes, sleeping with you would be a huge mistake. I'm not the kind of girl you usually go for and I'm not going to be anybody's one night stand." She said moving to the end of the bed.
"But it's not night time."
"Is that seriously the best thing you could come up with? You bring all these bimbos back to your apartment and you can't come up with something better than that, it really speaks volumes about your choices in the quality of women you screw."
"Well I'm trying to screw you right now so does that make you a bimbo?"
"No, you asshole. I'm not sleeping with you now or ever so you can try all you want but you will not succeed, why would I have sex with someone who has a different stain on his bed every night. I know your type."
"Really, and what would that be since you know every damn thing?"
"You're an over grown child who has nothing better to do than to occupy his time with different women but you aren't enough of a man to have a relationship and settle down with one woman. You have a few redeeming qualities but they're overshadowed but your womanizing ways. You lure women to this apartment only to have them out within a few hours. It's like you don't have a heart."
"Well you know what, you're wrong you don't know anything about me or what has gone on in my life. I-"
Kagome cut him off. "Oh cry me a river, you're rich and pretty. Your biggest worry was what to pick out for your birthday-"
InuYasha cut her off "That's where you're fucking wrong, don't assume you know shit about my life when you don't know anything about me. I wasn't some rich brat living without a care in the got damn world. I know what pain is and if anything you act like a stuck up snobby little bitch who has her head up her ass and has to have everything her way."
They sat there staring at each other for a minute fuming.
Kagome got up and went into the bathroom and slammed the door. Eventually InuYasha heard his shower start.
He got up and started cleaning his room. When he finished, he turned on the TV and zoned out.
Kagome finished showering and grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her.
Kagome came out of the bathroom wearing the same shirt but her hair was wet, InuYasha glanced her way and tried with every fiber in his being to stay in the same spot.
'Why the hell did she have to come out here looking sexy?' he thought to himself.
She put the towel she used in his hamper in the closet and looked at him for a moment until he looked at her.
"Um, I'm going to check and see if I put my spare key up under the mat like I was supposed to do last week." She told him quietly.
"You're gonna walk out dressed like that?"
"It's the door right in front of yours so I think it'll be alright, but uhh….c-could I…umm-"
"Well spit it out already."
She cut her eyes at him. "Do you have a pair of boxers I could wear or something?"
"Top drawer" he said pointing to his dresser.
Kagome opened and pulled out a pretty black silky pair and slid them on.
"And I better get those back."
Kagome laughed "I'll be back." And she walked out.
As soon as Kagome shut InuYasha's door she was push back into it roughly.
She looked up "Kouga? What the hell are you doing here!" she asked angrily.
"You fucked him, I can smell him all over you." He said pinning her to the door.
"That's none of your damn business! Let me go before I call InuYasha!" She yelled
Kouga started choking her. "If you call him out here I'll be forced to hurt you, do you want that?" He waited on an answer but she couldn't reply because his hand was around her throat.
"You better answer me when I ask you a question!" he yelled in her face.
InuYasha swung his door open and Kagome fell to the floor on the inside of his apartment, half conscious.
InuYasha didn't ask any questions after he saw Kagome hit the ground. He beat Kouga until his hands hurt and slammed his door.
He moved Kagome back into his bedroom and saw that her neck was beginning to bruise.
He growled deep in his throat.
When Kagome woke up she heard talking in the other room and InuYasha's bedroom door was closed.
She tipped to the door to listen.
"Actually I'm the only person she's told about that. I can't let her stay alone but I know how stubborn she is so she won't stay with me." Sango said.
"She definitely is stubborn, so I guess you just have to leave it up to her." InuYasha told Sango.
"I can't just leave it to her she'll worry me to death."
'What are you my mother' Kagome thought from her side of the door.
"What are you her mother?" InuYasha asked Sango
"Hey, I'm just worried."
"Well why don't you just ask her what she wants to do." He said like it was the most obvious thing in the world.
"Because she's still asleep." Sango said in a 'duh' tone
"No she's not, she's been awake. Come on out Kagome." He said in the same volume he'd been using.
Kagome opened the door slowly and poked her head out. "Hey" she said in a raspy voice.
She rubbed her throat and sat on the couch in the living room next to InuYasha.
Sango stared at her the entire time. "Kagome are you ok?" she asked in a motherly tone.
"Sango I'm fine." She said reassuringly.
"But look at that huge bruise on your neck! Did you call the police? You can't seriously be thinking about staying in your apartment alone?" Sango ranted.
"Sango I'll be fine, I'm living next door to InuYasha. If anything happens I'll scream…I'm sure he'd hear me, if he doesn't have a girl over here every night." Kagome added in slyly.
"InuYasha would you be willing to look out for Kagome?" Sango asked with pleading eyes.
"Jeez why don't you just beg me to move in with him." Kagome said sarcastically.
"You should." He said unexpectedly. Both of the women stared at him.
"What?" Kagome said confused. "I can't move in with you."
"Why not?" Sango asked.
Kagome's mouth dropped. "Uh, why would I do that, I live across the hall."
"Well you just walked across the hall earlier today and look how that turned out." InuYasha said.
"And besides he doesn't know you live here, he only knows that InuYasha lives here." Sango added.
'I think this is a conspiracy.' Kagome thought to herself.
Kagome dropped her head in her hands to think for a minute, then she sighed loudly. "Ugh!...Ok fine. I'll stay, but only for a little while."
"Well Kouga was arrested today and he's pretty obsessed with you, he told the police that you were his girlfriend and InuYasha had drugged and kidnapped you from the club last night. That's why I'm over here, so you might be over here until you guys effectively press charges and you are certain he isn't stalking you anymore. But until then could you please stay here with InuYasha?" Sango said.
"Yes, I'll stay until its safe again."
Kagome and InuYasha went into her apartment so she could grab some things. She took a quick shower and put on night shirt with a pair of shorts.
She grabbed a bag and threw in her toothbrush and other things she would need in the morning. She grabbed an outfit for work and everything else that went with it.
They went back to InuYasha's apartment and Kagome got in the bed while InuYasha was doing something in the next room.
Kagome's mind was still racing about the day's events and she thought about this morning. She felt bad about what she said to InuYasha.
He walked into the room while she was deep in thought.
"InuYasha, I wanted to apologize about earlier. You were right, I don't know much about you so I shouldn't have assumed that much about you. And I wanted to thank you for letting me stay over here with you." After saying that she slid deep under the covers and turned over.
InuYasha turned out the light and crawled in bed behind her and pulled her against his body. "I may have been wrong about some things I said about you too, and you can stay with me as long as you want to." He said in her ear.
Kagome turned half her body and kissed him and lay back down.
InuYasha was genuinely shocked, he went to sleep a little happier that night.
The next morning Kagome woke up before InuYasha. She looked over at him and he seemed so peaceful. She kissed him on the cheek and went into the bathroom to get ready for work.
Kagome came out of the bathroom half dressed and InuYasha was still sleeping. It was still 7:15 but he told Kagome to wake him up in the morning. She walked over to the bed and peered over at him. She looked at his ears and felt herself get swept up in mischief. She grabbed his ears and ran her fingers over the furry smoothness. They felt so good under her fingers. She rubbed his ears gently and his arm shot up stopping her ministrations.
"What are you doing?" he asked as he eyed her.
"Um…waking you" she smiled sweetly.
He looked down. "I wish I could wake up to this again."
She followed his gaze to her unbuttoned shirt. She yanked her hands back and closed her shirt while she blushed furiously.
"Well you wanted to wake up and now you're up so I'll finish getting ready."
InuYasha drove Kagome to work and walked her into the building. When she was about to walk away he yanked her back to him and kissed her and she blushed.
"What time do you get off?"
"4:30"
"I'll come in and get you."
"Ok." She said walking towards the elevator.
When Kagome got to her office a few of the women were looking at her.
"Sango, what's up with all the weird looks?" Kagome asked
"Apparently some of the women in the office have been gossiping. I heard InuYasha was here this morning."
"Yeah, he dropped me off this morning and walked in. What's it to them?"
"I guess they were still hanging on to him, I don't know, but I did hear he kissed you." Sango said.
"Well yeah, but it's not like that was the first time or anything, these nosy people need to mind their business."
"You sound defensive." Sango laughed. "Nobody wants to steal your boyfriend Kagome." She snickered.
"He's not my boyfriend." She pointed.
"Well not yet" Sango said and walked off.
