Yes, I am still alive and I come bearing fiction! Alas, it is only a short one-shot, but it's something to read, nevertheless! I thought of this last night as I was getting ready for bed, and I was too tired to write it down, so I wrote it this morning at work. I'm just now updating it because I didn't get home until 5:30 'cause I had a picnic to go to for Labor Day. And I've been at work since 9:00 to 2:00. Tomorrow is my last day to sleep in because Wednesday I start school. X.x I'm so thankful that this is my last year!

Now that my unworthy problems have been addressed, enjoy!

Oops

A blushing Kagome stomped into the store, dragging a resistant hanyou behind her.

"Why do I have to go?" he griped, infamous scowl planted on his face as he halfheartedly tried to tug his hand free from her grasp.

Satisfied that he wouldn't try to escape once the door clicked shut behind them, Kagome huffed and whirled around to face him, mimicking his scowl. "Because, you forgetful scoundrel, you were a bit too—" She flushed. "—enthusiastic last night and destroyed my last pair!" She valiantly tried to ignore the stares she received from her declaration.

He snorted and rolled his eyes. "Dunno what the big deal is. It'd be better if you just didn't wear any at all, then we wouldn't have this problem," he stated, crossing his arms over his chest.

Kagome's face rivaled a tomato. "We are not having this conversation," she mumbled then stalked off, leaving the half-demon to his own devices.

Inuyasha blinked then shrugged, looking around briefly before turning left and sniffing around.

Kagome grumbled under her breath as she browsed through the different colors and fabrics of a shelf. "Bakayasha," she muttered softly, tossing several pieces of clothe into the basket that hung off her arm. "I can't believe him, saying that I shouldn't wear—"

"Kagome,"

"Ack!" she squeaked, spinning around to stare into two sunset orbs. "Inuyasha!" she admonished, throwing him a glare. "Don't do that! You scared me!"

Aforementioned half-demon rolled his eyes and held up a lacy black and pink two-piece. "I found this. Isn't this what you're looking for?" he asked innocently enough.

Russet eyes widened and her mouth dropped. "I-Inuyasha!" she squeaked, face flaming once more. "I-I can't wear that!" She pointed an accusing finger at the garments in his hand.

He blinked. "What? It's the same as those," he said, nodding to the fabric in the basket, "right?"

Badly stifled snickers erupted around them and Kagome wanted to die. "B-but I—"

"Please, Kagome?" Inuyasha pleaded, stepping close and staring intently into her wide brown eyes.

Kagome gaped. He cheated! "Fine," she grumbled then snatched the lacy bra and thong set from his hand before stomping off toward the fitting rooms, leaving a rather smug hanyou grinning in her wake.

Swishing the curtain closed once inside the fitting stall, the young woman sighed, stripping down to nothing then slithering into the black and pink garments. She stared at herself in the body length mirror, a light flush dusting her cheeks as she cocked her head to the side slightly. "Well…I guess I don't look that bad," she admitted softly.

The swoosh of a curtain being drawn back echoed behind her and Kagome was suddenly pinned to a hard chest by red-clad arms wrapped around her slim waist, clawed hands splayed out on her flat stomach and warm breath fanning over her ear.

Kagome gasped, eyes wide and mouth parted as she stared at the reflection of her and Inuyasha, not able to do anything but watch silently as his large hands slowly slid down her smooth belly.

"She shuddered. "I-Inuyasha…"

"I like it," he responded in a husky timbre, his tongue daring out to lick her ear. "Very sexy."

His tone sent shivers down her spine and she gulped, trying to regain back the coherent thought that was rapidly drifting out the window. "I-Inuyasha, you shouldn't be in here," she said softly.

"Why?" he whispered, one hand now situated on her hip whilst the other trailed up her abdomen, his claws a sinful caress on her skin. It landed on her chest, the sharp talons tickling the valley between her breasts.

Kagome sucked in a breath and her eyes fluttered close on their own accord. His mouth planted hot, open-mouthed kisses along her neck and shoulder as the hand on her hip flexed almost inconspicuously.

Almost.

Kagome's eyes flew open as she realized his intention too late. "Don't you dare—"

R-r-r-r-r-rip.

"Inuyasha!"

Snicker. "Oops."
