Chapter 6: You and Me

"Cause it's you and me and all other people with nothing to do
Nothing to lose
And it's you and me and all other people
And I don't know why, I can't keep my eyes off of you..."

- "You and Me" by Lifehouse

Kagome sniffed next to Sesshoumaru at the table. Her normally bright blue eyes were dark and brooding as she picked at the plate of steak and hash browns. Sesshoumaru had been strangely quiet since they left the hospital. And despite her assurances to her family that she was fine, they'd ended up sitting at Touga's elaborate dining room table. Sesshoumaru and Kagome had been given a room that Touga had told Kagome belonged to Sesshoumaru until he'd moved out and gotten his own place. Kagome had declined to answer and despite Sesshoumaru's glares at his father had asked for another room.

Later that night, Sesshoumaru lay in the bed, propped up by a pillow, and watched Kagome fidget as she walked around needlessly straightening up anything that her dainty hands touched. Nervously, she pulled on her pajamas, the top of a set that belonged to him. Sesshoumaru himself wore the bottoms.

"Sesshoumaru, I really don't think this is a good idea. I can sleep on the floor if you're uncomfortable."

"There is no need for you to sleep on the floor. I believe we can be reasonable about this."

"There is no reasonable answer for this. I can't sleep in a bed with you. Not after today."

"You enjoyed today. And no matter what your hesitation, you still have to be rutted. Either I can do it, or we can hire someone."

Kagome blinked at him. Twice, and her mouth gaped open for a moment.

"You are offering me your services, like I have no other option?"

"You are carrying too high for someone of your weight, if it continues, you will have back problems."

"Did you ever think that maybe, I like my back, or my stomach? It's perfectly healthy for human females to carry like this."

"Kagome, you are carrying a youkai pup. No matter what you say, they mature differently than human babies, and for you to be carrying a youkai, it's unhealthy."

"Human stomachs tend to drop on thier own."

"Again, you are carrying a youkai pup. I take it Inuyasha hasn't been acting as the mature adult since you found out. So therefore it's been about 5 months since you've been properly fucked."

Kagome blanched at the bald statement.

"I don't want to."

"Kagome, how have you been surviving all this time? The pup craves the contact provided by a rut from it's Alpha. And if Inuyasha hasn't been up to par lately, you've had to do it yourself, or you bought a vibrator. Which is it?" Sesshoumaru asked as he looked at her.

"I haven't brought anything. I don't feel any different than I did when I was a virgin. The baby doesn't seem to mind."

Sesshoumaru sniffed at her. Kagome was too nervous to place the action.

"You're lying, Kagome. Answer the question."

Kagome glanced around the room, and mentally calculated the distance to the door. She could've made it if she had damn longer legs.

"I- I- did it myself for a few days, and I felt guilty everytime afterwards, so I brought a vibrator. I should've saved my money,because I don't use it.

"At all?" Sesshoumaru asked. She would be tight, if his calculations were correct, and they were hardly ever wrong.

"At all." Kagome fought diligently with the blush fighting to rise over her cheeks.

Sesshoumaru didn't say anything at all. He looked at her and sighed before going into the bathroom and closing the door.

Kagome looked confused as she replayed the scene in her head. Rolling her shoulders, she went to the door, and turned the handle.

"Kagome, I'd have to drag you back if you left the room. I don't think that it is something you want Father to see." Sesshoumaru called from the bathroom.

Kagome huffed, but went to lie across the bed. She wished the floor would open up and swallow her. She was so wrapped up in her thoughts, that she never heard Sesshoumaru come out of the bathroom.

Sesshoumaru stood at the end of the bed and watched as one side of Kagome's nightshirt shifted over one impeccably slender thigh. She continued to frown at the wall, and Sesshoumaru muffled a moan as he caught a glimpse of the green shorts she wore under it. They were called boy shorts if he remembered properly, and were cut in the way of men's boxer shorts.

She suddenly noticed the other presence in the room, and glanced up mutinously at him. Her face was childish, but the pout on it could only be effectively used by a woman.

"Sesshoumaru. Is something the matter?"

Sesshoumaru ignored her soft voice and lay down. Kagome rolled over and tried to ignore the masculine presence behind her.

"Kagome." Sesshoumaru's deep baritone floated through the dark.

"Yes?" she asked, she was sure he could hear her heart beating. She could feel it rumbling in an erratic pattern.

"We're going to have to do this sometime. I'd rather it is of your own free will, but if I have to take it from you, I really don't mind. It just makes it more exciting."

Kagome stared at him for a minute.

"I think this is a really bad idea Sesshoumaru."

Sesshoumaru ignored her protests as he drew her closer to him. Kagome's breathing hitched when she encountered the hard contours of his chest, but Sesshoumaru pulled her up his rangy body and pressed his lips to hers.

"Kagome, you know you want me. Just let me take care of you for a while." he kissed her a bit more forcefully this time, and swallowed her moan with one of his own.

"Sesshoumaru, please." she whispered breathlessly.

His lips traveled down to her neck and suckled gently.

"You know you want me Kagome. You want me to fuck you."

Kagome ignored his taunts as she tried to remove herself from his arms.

"Stay there. Ride me." Sesshoumaru pressed the hard ridge of his cock against the thin barrier of her underwear.

"You know these shorts only make me harder? I think I might just want to peel them off with my tongue. You like that, I felt you get wetter."

Kagome's gasps were the only sound in the room other than Sesshoumaru's lustful orders and commands.

Finally, she felt her body go numb, while her mind screamed at her to move, get away, anything!

Sesshoumaru's chest rumbled soothingly as she stared up into the honey-kissed gaze of the one person she had come to care for if not love. Her own cobalt blue gaze was dazed, like someone or something had hit her and she had yet to figure out if she should fall or attack.

He snaked his tongue out after he managed to undo the buttons of the shirt. Amazing how a mere 20 year old human could make someone like him, a centuries old youkai fumble around like a inexperienced teenager.

Kagome's soft pants and moans only fueled the actions of the youkai. His beast was clawing at the mental cages he had erected to keep it out of his hair. It wanted Kagome, and despite the fact that he wanted her too, claiming her as his bitch was not something that most of youkai society was going to easily accept, since no matter how horrible of a mate Inuyasha was, he was still her mate.

But then again, youkai society frowned on leaving your mate, even if you did not want her. Human as Kagome was, she was still a powerful being, a celestial youkai and a miko. And Inuyasha had disbanded his and Kagome's marriage.

Sesshoumaru focused his thoughts as he mentally made a note that he should ask his father about. As The Inu No Taisho, Touga was the Alpha for him and Inuyasha. If any could announce that he and Kagome were matched, it was Touga.

Kagome ground against him with a whine, obviously trying to tell him that he was ignoring her. Sesshoumaru ground back into her, and captured the hiss that followed.

Kagome's harsh breaths filled the room and Sesshoumaru smirked as he slid a single digit through her slick folds. Kagome bucked upwards with a sharp cry and Sesshoumaru hissed as she sank her teeth into his shoulder.

Sesshoumaru removed his finger and chuckled at Kagome's depressed sigh. Sliding down her body, he rooted eagerly at the apex of her thighs. Kagome protested,but Sesshoumaru won in the end.

Kagome felt like her body was made out of lead. Sesshoumaru had yet to move from his embarassing postion between her legs, and he appeared to be in his own personal heaven. He sniffed at her again, and Kagome blushed as a growl erupted from his throat.

Kagome jolted. Sesshoumaru's beast must have taken control, but the bright gold eyes she saw over the curve of her stomach assured her that Sesshoumaru was fully there.

"Kagome, you smell delicious."

"I never thought it had a smell, are you sure?"

Sesshoumaru didn't bother to answer as he snaked his tounge out and into the one thing he'd been dying to taste.

Kagome jerked violently, and collapsed as he fed off her body. Sesshoumaru chuckled to himself again as he noticed her legs start shaking. The vibrations from his chuckles released a surge of fluid and he growled into her flesh again. Nibbling at the nub that jutted proudly out, he rumbled again as Kagome tried to inch her way from under him.

"No." He clamped an arm around her hips and held them still.

"Sesshoumaru, please!" Kagome whined. This was so embrassing.

"What?" He looked at her, and chuckled lightly at the dark blush across her face.

"There's no need to be embrassed, koi. You taste like a fine wine. It only grows better with age."

More fluid surged out, this time into Sesshoumaru's waiting mouth.

Inching his way from between her legs, he settled heavily over her. Kagome's muscles for all she stiffened, held the rigidity of hot wax.

Sesshoumaru chuckled as she blinked sex drugged blue eyes up at him.

Nipping her neck, he whispered in her ear. "Koi, when you look at me with those eyes, it makes me want to do things to you. Things that you would appreciate, but I'm sure the youkai council would find appaling."

Kagome whimpered as he listed the things he'd like to try in her ear.

"I don't want to damage the baby. Kagome. Kagome, look at me."

Kagome blinked at him.

Sesshoumaru swallowed his chuckle and rolled, pulling Kagome over him.

Kagome looked around as she tried to figure out what she was doing. Sesshoumaru shifted upwards and into Kagome.

Her muscles clamped down on him quickly, causing a loud bark to erupt from his throat. He tried to keep from moving, but the tightness if Kagome's body broke through his resolve. He arched up, testing.


Kagome moaned, her dazed eyes, sliding closed as she rode out the movement.

As her muscles rippled around him, signaling her release, Sesshoumaru's control snapped. He growled again, and giving into his more primal urges, bucked upwards as Kagome's body instinctively rode him, her hips moving on their on.

Finally, Sesshoumaru felt his release coming and sensed Kagome's fatigue. reaching up, he pulled her down, and whispered in her ear.

"Cum for me, koi. Cum for me."

The next morning, Kagome woke with a jolt. Eyes wide, she felt for the shirt she wore to bed, only to find herself naked, and Sesshoumaru, equally naked, dozing behind her. She panicked, searching for the opening out of the bed.

Sesshoumaru's arm snaked around her and with a tug, had her sprawled next to him. She felt the rigid contours of his body, and once again panicked.

"Kagome, calm down."

"I'M NAKED! OH MY GOD, I'M NAKED!!" Kagome's nervous squeak was wild.

"I took care of something last night. Now, go back to sleep." Sesshoumaru pinched a nerve on her neck, and Kagome entered the world of dreams.

Sighing, he got out of the bed, and pulled on the bottoms. Finding the top, he pulled it over Kagome. Leaving the room, he went to shower and find some breakfast or something. She'd only been out for five minutes. He still had 55 to go.

Sesshoumaru noticed the looks he recieved from Touga and Azumi as he sat Kagome down at the table. Dressed in a pair of baggy cargo shorts, and a green t-shirt, he stared at them. Kagome wore a pair of his old basketball shorts, and a t-shirt of his. And despite the mass of snarls in her hair, glared at Azumi and Touga from her spot at the table.

"I know you plotted this." she spoke quickly, startling the other occupants at the table. "I want to know why." There was no question in her voice, just flat acceptance.

Sesshoumaru's beast whined.

Our female is not pleased. We would do well to make sure she doesn't do anything she'll regret.

I'm sure she'll watch what she says. I've known her for years,and she doesn't say what she doesn't mean.

Well she will damage our pup.

It's not our pup. It's her pup. Inuyasha is out of the picture.

Hn

Touga was hurriedly explaining the dangers of Kagome's carriage for someone of her weight. Azumi continued to butter toast as if her daughter decided she might want her head everyday.

"Did you know about this." she turned her nearly violet gaze to Sesshoumaru.

"I was not aware they were planning something, but your doctor asked that something be done soon, as to ensure you wouldn't have back problems."

"Oh." she said as turned to stare out of the window.

The next afternoon

Kagome was in the kitchen at Sesshoumaru and her apartment as she measured and mixed carefully. She had a yen for some homemade blueberry muffins and biscuits and she was going to make them herself.

Sesshoumaru was growling in his room. He must have been talking to Touga because everynow and then a loud ear ringing growl or snarl would erupt from the room.

When she slid a pan of muffins and a pan of biscuits in, Kagome heard his door open. Glancing up, she saw that he was dressed in a suit and carrying his laptop case.

"Kagome, Father has requested that I fly to London tommorow for a meeting with our board members there. I am not thrilled to be leaving you during this highly unstable time, but he refused to go and he won't put the meeting off until after the pup is born. I'd like to take you with me, so I may keep an eye on you, but I know you will decline, so are you going to be okay if I leave you here alone?"

She smiled at him.

"I'll be fine, Sesshou-chan. There's no need for you to worry yet, I'm thinking of going to visit my cousin Sango for a few days, but this is fine."

"Kagome- are those blueberries I smell?"

"Yes. I wanted some muffins and some of those biscuits so I'm making some myself." she looked so proud of herself.

"Very well."

Kagome suddenly felt like the kitchen was too small when he fixed those sun-kissed eyes on hers. It felt hot, too hot, and she felt like she was drugged.

"Kagome." Sesshoumaru trapped her between him and the counter as he waited for her to look at him.

She lifted her dark gaze to his and he leaned down to plunder her lips.

Kagome sighed as she tasted him, he tasted like mint, and a small dash of cream, like he drank a cup of the stuff before he came out of his room.

"Let me have you." he demanded in her ear as he nipped the piece of flesh and soothed it with his tounge.

"Sesshou-Iie-" Kagome dragged her head away as she dragged in air.

"Kagome." he growled at her.

"I can't. I don't want to grow too attached to you."

"I'm not the pup. I will not throw you away." he nearly growled at her as he kept her caged between him and the counter.

"My muffins are going to burn." was all she said.

"We will discuss this when I return from the office today."

"If that's what you want." Kagome said as she pulled the muffin pan out.

"Hn. I'll be here by 7. Do you require anything?"

"Some pineapples, and some of those apples in the bag. Can you pick up the green ones. About 4 bags."

"Fruit."

"Yes, I like fruit."

"I will go grocery shopping and that will suffice until I return."

"Very well, Sesshoumaru." Kagome mumbled as he gathered up his briefcase.

"I'm leaving this." She stared at the gray card in his hand.

"I have my own credit card, Sesshoumaru."

"I am aware of that. I'm leaving this because you may need something and I would like for you to have it."

Kagome sighed.

"Ok."

He pecked her on the forehead, and with a sniff at her neck, left.

Kagome glanced around and sighed. Somehow the apartment seemed so lonely without him.
