Hey guys sorry for the lateness of this chapter. The next few weeks are going to be a little rough with school and finals. So please be patient with me on this and thanks for the reviews. ^_^
Oh, and I like to give my stories a little bit of a twist. Inuyasha has a bit of a huge soft, romantic side in this story. Later steamy scenes. That is probably why you guys are wondering why I rate it M. XD
Two weeks, had passed and Inuyasha and I were starting to get along well now. Just this morning he asked for a second date to the movies and dinner. Happily, I accepted. Sango, being her normal self, went on about the 'I told you so s '. But lunch had to have been the worst yet.
"So, Kagome? Have you guys… kissed yet?!" I felt the blood rise quickly in my face.
"Er… I don't know what you're talking about. We are just friends!" I said quickly.
"Friends don't date…" She said all sarcastic like. Miroku had some input too when I realized he was about to speak.
"She is right. You two have been awfully close lately. I think it is about time you seal the deal." Miroku devilishly smiled. He sat back in his chair and folded his arms behind his head. The blood still hadn't drained from my face as I sunk in my chair. It is like they were reading my thoughts from the beginning! I would be lying if I said I didn't want to be together with him. On the other hand, I would much rather wait for him to make the first move.
"What should I do?" I asked boldly.
"Not much you can do, except ask him. Or seal the deal." Miroku sat back into his put his arm around Sango.
It was easier said than done. While in mid thought Inuyasha sat in the chair beside me with a plate full of food. I jumped in surprise.
"Oh, speak of the devil." Sango snickered.
"Hey, kagome are we still on for tonight?" He smiled that crooked smile of his.
"Oh yea… Of course… Can't wait!" I smiled.
"Hey is something bothering you. You're acting kinda'… you know… "
"Who, me? Nothing is wrong. Everything is just fine." I lied. My laugh came out shaky and nervous.
"Ok, you sure?"
I nodded and he went back to eating his food. I sat there quietly, thinking over the conversation while butterflies fluttered around in my stomach. Come to think of it this happened every time I was around him. So, what should I do? Make the first move or play it slow? But what if I go to slow? He might lose interest? I looked out of the comer of my eye to Inuyasha's face. I think I know what to do now.
Several hours later it was finally time for the date. I could hardly stand the wait for him to pick me up. Every time a car would pass, I would jump to the window to see if it was him. But just about every time it wasn't, and my heart would sink every time and I would go back to waiting on the couch. He wasn't late yet. Inuyasha was usually good at being on time. So, finally I heard a knock at the door. My heart skipped a beat. I didn't hear a car that time. I ran to the door with high hopes, and to my relief it was Inuyasha! The butterflies came back in almost an instant. "Hey you ready!" He sounded a little anxious. "ugh sure, where s your car?" He laughed a little and smiled at me. I was confused at this point. What did he have planned, a walk maybe?
"Are we walking?" I asked.
"Uhh Kinda…" He moved his feet a little toward me and grabbed my hand. I felt a shock go straight through me, yet it wasn't pain full. He pulled me over his back. "Hey, Kagome, you might want to hang on."
"Wait, what are you doing?" I asked nervously. He didn't answer; instead he leaped through the air!
"AGGGGHHH!!!" I screamed with my eyes closed and lacthed myself tightly around Inuyasha's chest.
"Kagome, open your eyes stupid! See what I see!" I squint one of my eyes and then fully opened them both. Everything was a blur and went by so fast. I felt like I was flying! It was amazing! I loosened my grip and hugged his neck. The butterflies were back. He felt so warm, like his own sun. Moments later I found that we were on solid ground, but the air was so thin. When I took a look around I found we were on top of a building!
"How'd we get up here?" I asked a little dizzy. I was afraid of heights; especially when the ground is 1000 feet below you. My feet started it fall out from under me, but I was caught luckily by strong arms. I felt safe now.
"Careful there, clumsy. I can't have you falling off the building." He looked at me with his soft golden eyes. They made me want to touch his face.
"Thank you." I said shyly. I looked at my surroundings careful not to look over the edge of the building. Inuyasha stood close by my side. Probably, making sure I don't jump. In the middle of the roof was a small garden. It was completely filled with bright flowers and small trees. Somewhere hidden in the garden was simple placing of a cloth and a basket. Looked almost like something you would see in a romantic movie.
"So what do you think of your dinner and movie?" He asked while looking at the arrangement. I couldn't think of anything to say. I was amazed! I was completely taken aback by this… this new side of him. I had to admit, I actually kinda liked it. But there was one thing I didn't get…
"Inuyasha, what's the movie?" It sounded dumb and he laughed to confirm my suspicion.
"It won't start for a little while. But in the mean time…" He took my arm and held his hand outward. "Dinner is served."
