~Chapter 7 ~

It was pouring rain, when we walked outside. Koga and I looked at each other, asking the silent question on whether or not we should brave the weather. I shrugged with a smile, and stepped out into the weather. He sighed half-heartedly and followed suit. The rain gave me a rush of energy. I was dancing as we walked. I stopped at the cross-walk, and started swinging my hips with the thunder, my hands above my head; I closed my eyes and kept with the rhythm of the rain. I could feel Koga's eye boring holes into my body. I stopped dancing when a car horn sounded. I jumped to Koga's side, and he laughed. I entwined my fingers with his. We crossed the street then cut through the apartment parking lot. Walking up to his apartment door, Koga looked for his keys which he couldn't seem to find.

"Koga, stop joking around. We don't have time to kill." I said, compressing the want to shiver.

"I'm not joking, I can't find my keys." He said a little more frantic.

I sighed, and went to reach into one of his pockets I stopped half-way, "You mind?"

"N-no. Go ahead. But I'm telling you they aren't in there." He said quietly.

I checked his side leg pockets first, then his back pockets. When I got to his front pockets, I watched him visibly tremble and mutter something that I couldn't catch. I checked his right pocket first, then his left. End product: No keys, and a somewhat horny Koga. I sighed and rested my head on his shoulder, "Do you have an extra hidden key?" I asked praying to god that he said yes.

He paused for a second thinking it over. Then he reached up to the ledge of the door and felt it from side to side then brought his hand back down, key in it. I smiled and almost did an excited school-girl jump clap, but I refrained. He quickly unlocked the door and beckoned me inside. I glanced around, flat screen television, black square couches, a stereo system to die for, and the latest game systems were to my right. To left was the kitchen, complete with granite counter-tops, stain-less steel appliances, and island. Koga disappeared into one of three doorways, turning on the light behind him. I glanced around and spotted the bathroom, I went in it and looked at my reflection in the mirror and sighed, so much for this look. I grabbed a towel and took out all of the hair ties; I shook out my hair before towel drying it quickly. After I was somewhat satisfied with my hair, walked to where Koga disappeared to. His room was huge for an apartment and his walls were painted a dark brown, his nightstands, head-board, and dresser all matched. His bed-spread on his king bed made me raise an eyebrow.

"Koga?"

"Yes, dear?"

"Why do you have an animal print comforter?" I asked wondering if I really wanted to know the answer.

He laughed, sheepishly and said, "Cause Ginta and Hakkaku went shopping with me. And they were like, 'get this one.' And they just kept pushing and finally I gave in just to make them shut up. Now, I actually kinda like it. It's grown on me you could say."

I shrugged and then plopped down dead center of his bed. I laid back and watched him. He got back to work on packing clothes for a short while, but he kept looking back at me and getting distracted.

He turned to me fully. "You are a complete and utter distraction. I have half a mind to kick you out of my room so I can get this done."He said.

I pouted. "How am I being a distraction? I'm not doing anything. I'm just laying here." I whined.

He gave a frustrated growl. "That's how though. You're laying there in my bed, with your hair down. And stop pouting, that's not helping anything at all. Like you said, we don't have time for this. Plus, I'm sure you don't want to be stuck with me the rest of your life." His voice quieted towards the end, and he looked as though he'd been hit in the gut.

"You never know. And besides it's not like they can leave without us. They need me. They have no idea where it is." I smiled at my argument.

"You are really pushing your luck. Are you trying to get yourself jumped? Stop teasing me. God, I think we have this conversation every few hours." He scolded.

"I am not a child. I can tease you if I please. And we've only had this conversation twice. Twice. And it's not my fault that you seem to think everything I do, I do to tease you because I don't. I just wanted to be comfortable." I said with a pout.

"Whatever, Little girl. I think you sub-consciously do try to tease me all the time, here how bout you help me pack that way there's less of a chance that I'll jump you and we'll be done a lot faster." He said, motioning me to move.

I sighed and listened, but when he walked passed me I slapped his ass and said, "That's punishment for calling me little girl."

He just gave me a scolding look and kept packing.

Well, that's no fun. I thought with a pout.

"Koga. Why are you being no fun, now? Is it 'cause you had some weird plan to only bring the girl you're going to marry back to your bachelor pad? Cause if that's the case and this is making you un-comfortable and upset, I have no problem with waiting outside." I turned to walk to the front door, when I got completely lifted off my feet and turned back towards the bed.

"You are not waiting outside, baka. Even if I was having those kinds of issues you would not be waiting outside. Now either help, or do something." He said as he turned away, I jumped him. I threw my arms around his neck and my legs around his waist. At first it was like hugging a tree, but slowly he slid his hands up my thighs and under my buttocks.

"Ayame, What in god's name are you doing?" He asked.

"What does it look like I'm doing?" I countered.

"Being a horrible tease." He sneered.

"Hm. Maybe, I am. Maybe, I'm not." I said against his neck, nibbling lightly on his pulse-point.

He groaned. "No, you most definitely are." His voice was shaky.

I continued up his neck and along his chin and back. When I went to do it again, he pinched my butt roughly. "Ow! That hurt." I complained with a pout.

He roughly covered my lips with his. I was surprised when I felt the wall against my back; I hadn't even realized we'd moved. I kissed him back in a furiousness I didn't know existed, to gain control of the situation. Our tongues tangled and fought for dominance, I cheated with teeth when the opportunity arouse. My hands locked in his hair as his hand slid slowly up my side. We were just about to cross a line, when a shrill ring echoed through the room. Koga just about dropped me it startled him so, and I had jumped out of my heated skin. The phone kept ringing from his back pocket, and I nimbly slid my arm back and around.

I answered it, panting; my breath still not quite recovered "H-Hello?"

"Dammit, Ayame. I said no quickies. I should have known better than to send you two alone." Kagome scolded from the line.

"Now, what makes you think I had a quickie?" I asked my breathing back to normal. I glanced at Koga, and decided not to mention that if she had not called, we probably would have just stayed at his apartment and forgotten about the entire trip.

"You've been gone a lot longer than necessary and you just answered the phone with a complete I'm-getting-it-on breathlessness." Kagome clarified.

I could tell Koga could hear her, the look he gave the phone gave it away. "I did not have a quickie Kagome. It's simply taking Koga awhile to find his clothes. We will leave in a few minutes. See you soon." I said and hung up before she could answer. I sighed and rested my head on his shoulder.

"You are so going to get murdered for that." He said.

"Nah. But she knows I'm lying so she'll milk me for details when we're alone." I explained.

"Milk you? That's quite the description there. Maybe, I wouldn't mind wat-"

I pinched his chest. "You are a horrible pervert. Now, let me down, grab your bag and let's go. Before she shows up with a hunting party."

He rebelliously pulled me closer and kissed me passionately, and only after he had, had his fill did he let me down to my feet. I had to hold onto the wall to keep from falling over, I was quite dizzy. So, while Koga grabbed his bag, I focused on breathing. I jumped when he lightly touched my shoulder, I hadn't noticed him next to me.

"Are you okay? You're worrying me." He confessed.

"Huh? Yeah, I'm great. I'm just dizzy cause somebody decided to not let enough oxygen get to my brain." I answered. His guilty look made me smile. "No really, I'm fine. Now, let's get back." I held out my hand for his, which he took readily and we left his apartment. We were surprised to see when reached the parking lot. Kagome had already sent a hunting party; they were parked in the spot designated to Koga's apartment.

"What took you so long? Having a little too much fun?" One asked with a smirk.

"Do you always have to be such a pervert?" The other snapped.

I sighed and Koga beat me to my thoughts, "Trouble in paradise?" He asked.

The glare he got made me step in front of him protectively. "Now now Sango dear, it was just an observation not an insult. Calm down. Besides to hurt him, you'd have to get through me, thus causing me harm. Which would be bad, right?" I babbled to distract her.

She looked at me, then back at him and shrugged. "I wasn't going to hurt him. Just scare 'im alil-"she stopped when I glared at her, "Just a little. Besides, he and I are going to have a talk later when you aren't around. So I don't have to hurt him at a later date." She said with a smile.

"Well now, what the hell does that mean?" I asked completely oblivious.

"It means she's going to warn me that if I hurt you, I'm dead. Makes perfect sense dear, best-friend protocol." Koga whispered in my ear.

"Oh. Huh. Then, I still need to have a talk with Miroku." I said glancing at him with a slow smile. He looked quite scared. My smile grew, I turned my attention back to Sango, "How 'bout we go back to Kagome before she has a stroke?" I asked.

She choked out a laugh and got into the driver's side of the car, Miroku followed suit in the passenger side, leaving Koga and me in the back. I stared at Koga and couldn't help it he was simply delicious to look at, I licked my lips remembering he tasted just as well.

Koga glanced at me and raised an eyebrow, "What?" he asked.

"Oh nothing. I was just wondering.. If I were to jump you right now, exactly how mad Sango would get." I said in a throaty voice.

"Extremely mad. We have a dead line, save that stuff for when we make it to the ranch. And there you'll have a bed to jump him to your heart's desire." Sango said glancing in the rear-view mirror.

Koga shifted uncomfortably. "Don't encourage her like that. She's already not thinking clearly. Give her promises later on, and I'm fucked-"

Miroku cut in, "Literally."

Koga growled. "That's a bad thing. Because a huge commitment comes with that." He explained.

Miroku turned around in the passenger seat to actually look at Koga, "Like what?" He asked.

Koga sighed," Trust me dude. You don't want to know. It just comes with my linage"

"Your linage? What does your having to be a wo-" Koga's head darted over Miroku's mouth and he shot him a glare.

That made me curious. "A what?" I asked looking at Koga.

"A nothing. It doesn't matter." He grumbled.

I pouted. "A what?" I asked again, launching full puppy-dog eyes on him.

Koga was about to waver when the car came to a stop. "We're here. Just leave your bags in the trunk. We have to load everyone else up anyway." Sango said getting out of the car.

Well, that took me forever. But it's nice and really long.

I've been extremely busy lately. But, I'm most likely going to update more in the next couple weeks, since I'm on spring break.

Thank god. School is extremely tiring and over-baring don't you think? But, I think it's important to get an education and that's what I'm doing. ANYWHO.

My St. Patrick's Day was good, pretty uneventful. And my mind has been over-run by two males. One a lost cause, and the other skirting on anything leading to anything. It's quite frustrating, you couldn't possibly believe.

Well, do us both a favor, and review.
