Chapter 4
Addiction: She was like his cigarettes, too damn addicting to put down.
Kagome sighed, dangling her feet off the little bridge and letting her toes just barely dip in the cool stream below. She was supposed to meet him here a half hour ago! Where could he be? Yes, they had a huge fight the night before but she doubted he'd be bull-headed enough not to see her before he left on this mission. Would he?
She grumbled under her breath, resting her chin on the railing of the bridge. "Stupid men," she muttered.
"Hey," rumbled a rather-subdued voice from behind her. The young woman looked up into her best-friend's and lover's dark eyes. Today, under a sunless, grey-sky, they looked softer than usual. Maybe that was just her wishful thinking.
"Hey yourself." She turned back to watch the slow, steady flow of the creek below. If he wanted to talk, he could start the conversation. She had said her piece last night.
Asuma cursed under his breath before crouching down next to his civilian girlfriend. "I'm sorry." There, he said it. What she had tried to get out of him all night last night. Shouldn't she be happy? Then why wasn't she saying anything? He took a long drag off his cigarette, letting the tobacco calm his nerves. When she still didn't speak, he glanced at the clock tower. He didn't have time to play the gentleman right now. He was supposed to be at the gates in half-an-hour to start his mission.
The jounin set down his cigarette, picked Kagome up off the bridge and kissed her. For a moment, she resisted him. But that didn't last long. She quickly melted into him, wrapping her arms around his neck and returning the kiss with fervor. The young woman felt his large, rough hands slide down her body. They cupped her rear, scooping her up and pressing her against the rail. His hungry mouth slid over hers, teeth nipping at her bottom lips, tongue taking advantage of the ensuing gasp to tangle with her own.
After several more stolen kisses, they parted for air. Kagome smiled a bit and rested her head against Asuma's broad shoulder. A low, rumbling laughter shook her and Kagome had to chuckle as well. The man that held her slowly set her down before leaning down and stealing another kiss.
The black-haired girl smiled when they separated. "If this is a preview of our make-up night, I can't wait for you to get back."
The jounin smirked. "I'll be back before you know it." With that, he kissed her one last time and disappeared. After all, the sooner he finished this mission, the sooner he could get back.
One page! Just one page! Hahahaha! I'm so good. Yes I am. Lol I have never worked with Asuma before, so I hope I did him justice. Let me know what you think! I just squeezed this off before getting ready to go out of town for the day.
Now then, what I know you all like. Here's a preview for next time!
Kagome's eye twitched. She was going to kill him! It was like he had a stick up his ass or something. "Oooh, big bad boy with a big bad family," she mocked under her breath. The stupid boy-who-wasn't-a-man had really ticked her off this time.
"Kagome." She spun on the heel at the sound of her name, too caught up in her anger to try and figure out whose chakra signature had snuck up on her. The pair's eyes connected and Kagome had to make herself not stare. His eyes always tripped her out, no matter how often she saw them.
