1Inuyasha the Story 3

( Inuyasha. )

I didn't go to sleep after that, and instead marveled in the strange feeling I got at just being near the strange girl. She laid on her back, her head bent to the side, a hand resting on her flat stomach.

I moved a hand to trail my finger down the side of the girls cheek, smiling when she mumbled incoherently and turned on her side to bury her face in my chest.

I laid on my side, resting on one elbow to better look at Kagome.

How could one girl cause such a stir in my emotions? Mine? The great Inuyasha Taishyo? The Terrible Titan? The Emotionless Vampire? The Ruthless Ruler? So many names I had gotten over the years, and all of them negative, if you should look at it that way, anyway. Every name I had ever acquired called me ruthless and vindictive, emotionless.

I had seen entire villages and cities go down without one pitying thought. I had seen women and children encased in slavery, tortured to bring man and vampire pleasure. Not once had I even glanced twice at these things.

Yet, even the thought of this girl going through that was unbearable... And I couldn't understand it.

Kagome whimpered in her sleep and I brought the black cashmere comforter more snuggly over her thin frame. She sighed contentedly, snuggling closer.

Did she even realize what she was doing to me? In her sleep? What her oppressive attitude did to me when she was awake?

Just five hours ago I had intended on bleeding her.

Now, five hours later, and I thought of mating her.

Mating! A human! The real Inuyasha would have laughed at the thought. So why did I seem so pleased at the prospect? If Sesshomaru had heard these thoughts, he'd have beat me senseless. But that bistered would have beat me senseless if I was three years old reciting a story I had heard a human talking about.

What on earth was I thinking?

" What are you staring at?" I looked down to find Kagome's sleepy eyes staring up at me.

" What does it look like, wench?" I smirked, noting the way her eyes sparked with unsheathed anger.

" It looks like you need to put your eyes back in your head and look somewhere else, you creeper!" She hissed, sounding strangely like an undignified cat.

" My eyes never left my head, Wench. I'm aloud to look at what's mine." I had to keep from laughing at the face she made.

Kagome sat strait up and turned twords him, looking like an angered goddess. " Lets get something strait, buddy," She growled, poking me in the chest. " I. Belong. To. Noone. You don't own me and you never will. This is my body, my mind, and no one, especially some egotistical vampire has any claim on it!" She huffed, turning around again and crossing her arms, muttering to herself about who I thought I was.

I frowned. Great, now I was going to have to apologize. Way to go, Inuyasha. The first time in over a hundred years you have to apologize, and it's to a girl who thought he was egotistical. If I wouldn't have just landed on my feet, I'd have jumped out the window to escape this.

" Kagome." I sighed. She ignored me.

I crawled behind her and, wrapping my arms around her waist, pulled her into my lap. She tried to escape, but I was to strong. Somehow, I wish she was strong enough to kill me so that I wouldn't have to do this. I hated saying I'm sorry.
