Chapter 10: High

The moonlight shined bright through the extravagant window. Normally he would have been able to sleep another five or six hours but something bothered him. Inuyasha stretched across the king sized bed allowing a yawn to escape his fanged teeth. He looked around disoriented but quickly figured out what was bothering him. Kagome was nowhere to be found. He distinctly remembered the past nights events. He glanced at the clock. 4:27.

"What the hell?" Inuyasha muttered rolling off the bed. Kagome's minor lingering scent took him down the hall, down the stairs, to the club's kitchen. There he found a freshly bathed Sesshomaru who still looked like a wet dog. He wore a pair of dress pants. Sesshomaru was shirtless with a towel draped across his broad shoulders. On the table sat warm sake and the business section of Tokyo's newspaper.

Sesshomaru looked up in annoyance eliciting a growl from his dear brother.

"What is wrong little brother? Lose you bitch again?" Sesshomaru teased.

"Keh. This coming from a sexually frustrated inu-youki. Think I can't smell your god awful stench. Don't tell me you weren't able to please you bitch. Or is she just not putting out." Inuyasha waved looking around for Kagome. He brushed past Sesshomaru with more annoyance. "Where is the girl anyways?" He asked slightly curious.

"Baking cookies." Sesshomaru seethed.

"Not going to ask." Inuyasha reached for the handle to return to the kitchen before being stopped by Sesshomaru's next comment.

"I do believe I have gotten much further in such short time. At least my bitch isn't avoiding me out by the pool. Just don't put your foot in your mouth this time. I do not wish for Rin to be upset again." Sesshomaru clarified taking a sip of his sake.

Inuyasha scoffed and walked out the back door instead. Deep moisture hit his nose. It was raining and hard. Odd it had been clear outside only five minutes ago. It was quite a nice spring shower. No thunder or harsh winds just the soothing cool rain. The outside light did little to brighten the pool area. Not that Inuyasha needed it. He could see Kagome figure perfectly. She sat at the edge of the pool with her legs dangling in the water and hands buried into her hands.

Kagome wasn't sure how long she had sat outside. Maybe two hours. The rain began only a few minutes ago. It soothed her on the warm night. She had been thinking about what she would say to Inuyasha. Guilt still sat within in guilty heart. She had been tricked by Naraku's influence once again. The horrible argument that had transpired between them as a result rang through her head over and over. He new the Inuyasha felt obligated to save her. Especially since it involved Naraku. He after all wanted her. Surely though Inuyasha didn't just protect her because of Naraku.

Right.

He wouldn't just cast her aside after the whole thing was over. She didn't think she could take it if he did. Of course then again she didn't think she could take the fact that he only protected her since Naraku wanted her. But, after the mean things she had said to him the previous night why would he want anything to do with her. Which brought her back to their argument again.

Kagome jumped slightly when a clawed hand reached for her shoulder. "Keh, I save you from dying of hypothermia and then you sit out in the cold rain." Inuyasha mused from behind her.

"Inuyasha?" She whispered. Inuyasha sat next to her also placing his feet into the warm pool water. "Kagome… what are you doing?" He firmly asked concerned.

Kagome brought her knees to her chest placing her head upon her knees. She held her ankles snuggly in place. She probably looked as miserable as she felt. And she had yet to figure out what to say. Should she offer to leave him? That way she wouldn't be such a burden. Maybe she should leave for America. Would Naraku still find her?

Think about the love inside the strength of heart
Think about the heroes saving life in the dark
Climbing higher through the fire
Time was running out
Never knowing you weren't going to be coming down alive

But she wanted to stay with him. She wanted to be here with him.

But you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong believe

Be strong believe

"Kagome?" Inuyasha pressed worried that she was being so quite. That was not like Kagome.

Think about the chance I never had to say
Thank you for giving up your life that day
Never fearing only hearing voices calling out
Let it all go the life that you know
Just to bring them down alive

"Oh, I um I like the rain." She whispered. Inuyasha could smell the quilt radiating off her. He knew why she was feeling guilty. Did she doubt him or herself? He was angered by all the drama they had to keep facing. He has enough drama in his life. She didn't deserve it, this tough life style. Something so pure and delicate like her could easily break. And that was what Naraku wanted. Inuyasha would not have that. Never

And you still came back for me
You were strong and you believed

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong believe

It was strange. People their age were supposed to have fun. She should smile and have fun. He couldn't remember the last time he did act more like his age. Well his human age. Maybe if for just that time, that small time they could just have fun.

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong believe

Kagome felt a little nervous with the silence. As much as she wanted to avoid it she needed to say something. "I-inuyasha, I-I. About yesterday I was such and idiot. I I didn't even I mean well im so-

"Your right." He growled picking her up. I guess I'll just have to punish you like everyone else who doubts me. After all your practically part of this gang. I guess that means your just gonna have to get use to being stuck with me.


Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong believe

Next thing Kagome new she was submerged in the warm pool water. She swam to the surface seeing a smiking Inuyasha. She was confused.

"There now were even." He crossed his arms still flashing his famous smirk.

"But, But I-" Kagome protested."

"I know." He simply stated cutting her off. Kagome's look of confusion soon faded to that of acknowledgement. Tears swelled up within her eyes as she nodded with a sweet smile.

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong believe

Inuyasha reached his hand down in order to hoist her out of the water. Kagome took his hand smiling deviously. Next thing Inuyasha realized he too was submerged into the pool. Upon surfacing he took in that the rain had picked up making the whole scene all the more fun and strangely more exotic.

Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Everything is gonna be alright
Be strong believe

"Oh, so you want to play huh." Inuyasha chuckled swimming after the girl.

Unknown to them golden orbs smiled at them through the kitchen before returning to his sake. Finally the dumb ass had done something right.

Kagome swam as quick away from him as she could. Halfway down the pool however she collided with waiting arms. " Huh? How? What are you some kind of fish or something." She laughed splashing at him.

"Uh demon?" He mused dunking them both into the water. He brought her back up holding her under her armpits like that of a little girl.

"Well I guess you just do it all." She laughed. Inuyasha brought her closer to him. Kagome wrapped her arms around his neck in a comfortable hug. Inuyasha wrapped his arms more snuggly around her waist in turn. After holding each other for a few minutes Kagome pulled away only to bring her forehead against his.

"I really am sorry Inuyasha. I won't doubt you ever again." She whispered.

"I never apologize to anyone so I ain't now. But, I won't lose my head again. You're all right that's all that matters to me.

Kagome smiled before firmly kissing his lips. Inuyasha smiled into her innoscent kiss dragging his hands down to firmly grip her butt. He lifted her up and closer against him.

Kagome gasped as Inuyasha delved deeper into her mouth. Kagome moaned leaning into him even more. The feel of his muscles against her sent unfamiliar sensations through her body.

Gods she had to be some forbidden treasure. Inuyasha swam her to the edge of the pool. He ravished her body earning a gasp from Kagome. She tightened her legs around his torso. The hardness that pressed against her wasn't hard to figure out. Inuyasha rubbed against her in a small rhythm as he nibbled against he neck.

"Inu…yasha, maybe we we shouldn't do these things in the pool. What if someone sees." Kagome did not want a repeat with Miroku.

"Who gives a damn." Inuyasha growled looking down at the minx.

Kagome giggled. "Well apparently me." She whispered.

Inuyasha took a deep breath to compose himself. "Fine." He agreed lifting her up sitting her on the deck. He hoisted himself from the pool and picked Kagome up heading to the house. They went through to kitchen to see an amused Sesshomaru. Inuyasha headed straight up to his… their room.

Inuyasha wasted no time entering the room. He took Kagome straight to the sofa. Still wet he placed her gently against the soft material.

"Don't move." He ordered.

Inuyasha hurried to the door putting every latch and lock including a chair against the passage. No one was going to walk in on them or he was simply going to kill them. End of discussion. Inuyasha returned to the couch only to find Kagome gone.

"What the hell!" He muttered heading for his room. He could hear the shower going. In the middle of his room stood Kagome with a pair of his boxers and a shirt.

"What happened I thought you wanted to move this into the apartment." He asked acting like a lost puppy.

"No, I said we shouldn't do those things in the pool. Right now I am taking a hot bath. Not only do I smell but now I have chlorine all over me." She concluded waltzing into the bathroom.

"You smell fine to me babe." He attempting to coax.

"Nice try babe but I am taking a shower. Go eat or watch something. I'm sure you can find a way to occupy yourself while I take a shower." She laughed shutting the door in his face.

Inuyasha was going to scream. And here he was telling Sesshomaru that he was sexually frustrated. Fuck why did she have to be so damn enticing. He watched the door with stark annoyance. Strangely he could not see the light shine from underneath the door. He placed his ear against the door. He could hear her moving around. He peeked the door ajar. She was taking a shower in the dark. At that moment temptation grabbed a hold of Inuyasha. This was one battle that he was just not going to win. Gods she was going to kill him. But hey she was the one to tell him to find a way to entertain himself while she took a shower. So now he would just simply appease his appetite.

Kagome leaned her head against the cool wall. The water poured down her body relaxing her. She sighed exasperating. She hated leaving Inuyasha high and dry. It wasn't like she didn't want to go further. Truth was she was just scared. She had no idea what she was doing and she definitely knew he did. What if he didn't like her body? He had been with oh so many women. She was sure they had been both beautiful and experienced. Ever since the incident with Naraku she was sad to say she took the pill. In case the worst-case scenario ever happened. So she wasn't concerned with pregnancy. She sighed. Her relaxed muscles tensed however when her mouth was covered. A muscular arm wrapped around her torso. " Shh, don't scream Kagome."

Phew it was only Inuyasha. Wait a second. Inuyasha? Kagome automatically wrapped her arms snuggly across her chest.

"What are you doing? You and I we're uh…" damn she hated when her brain and mouth lacked communication. His hands firmly held her waist, but he did not make any move to get closer. Not yet.

"Why are you bathing in the dark?" Inuyasha questioned. "I've always bathed like that." She whispered. "Something tells me though that you can see perfectly in the dark." She accused hoping she was wrong.

Inuyasha sighed her scent was so nervous. "Well I am a demon." He subconsciously answered only to make her nervousness spike even more. He didn't want to scare her. "Kagome why am I making you nervous. You haven't anything to hide." He whispered very gently and in a caring manner. In her opinion he sounded more seductive then caring. He turned her body around. He didn't miss her subconsciously look down as she covered herself with her hands.

"You're going to make fun of me." She whispered. Inuyasha was taken a back. Well this was different. He hadn't been in this position. But, this was his Kagome, his innocent loving Kagome. He couldn't just expect her to jump on him. Then it dawned on him where her nervousness was coming from. She was embarrassed. And by the way she was trying to hide her self he assumed she was embarrassed about her body.

Inuyasha cupped her cheek leaning his forehead against hers much like she had in the pool. He still kept the rest of his body a distance. "I won't make fun of you silly girl. Talk to me." He cooed rubbing her cheek affectionately.

Kagome felt so childish it wasn't even funny. "Well I really don't, well know what exactly to do. I doubt I'm much like any of the other girls you've been with. In both mind and body." She blurted out as quickly as she could.

Inuyasha gawked at her. How could someone like her be so self-conscious? He just didn't expect it. Her red tinged cheeks were curtained by her wet bangs. Inuyasha couldn't help but wonder if some of her self-consciousness was because of Naraku. He genuinely smiled though. He could go slowly for Kagome.

"Will you trust me?" He whispered lifting her chin up to look in her deep brown eyes.

Despite her fear and embarrassment Kagome nodded.

"I want to hear you say it Kagome." He pushed.

"I-I trust you." She whispered. He reached for her hands prying them away from her chest.

Inuyasha's breath hitched as he viewed her body. Her whole body was sun kissed to perfection. Her breasts weren't too big or two small. He stomach well toned. You could tell she worked out. He legs were long and lean as well. Lastly his eyes wondered to her womanhood. It was perfectly waxed with a perfect strip of hair leading to her core. He smiled "Who would of thought you waxed." He couldn't help but add.

"That was Sango's fault. When we went shopping and to the day spa I go the same package she got." She still blushed digging her head into his chest in attempt to hide it.

Inuyasha chuckled wrapping his arms around her torso. He hugged her body snuggly against his. The hot water only created friction between the two. "Your body is flawless you know? You have nothing to be embarrassed about your gorgeous." He whispered into her ear. "We'll go slow. I promise I won't go to far. I just want to make you feel good."

Kagome finally smiled. She wrapped her arms more comfortably around his neck. Gods he was amazing. He thought she was beautiful there was nothing wrong.

Inuyasha seeked out her mouth for one of the most intense kisses the two had ever shared. His tongue passed her lips taking her tongue into his mouth. He sucked on her tongue pushing their bodies firmly against the shower wall.

Inuyasha broke away from her lips making a path down her neck. He massaged her stomach. If he could just feel her for now, that way he could ease her into feeling more comfortable. His hands trailed up higher to massage her breasts.

Kagome moaned tilting her head back. She still was embarrassed but he made her feel so good. She moaned again as he pinched her nipple gently between his fingers. Inuyasha sought out her lips once more delving in for another intense kiss. He pressed himself against her if possible even closer.

Kagome shyly trailed her hands and nails across his back. She giggled slight when he purred into her mouth. She instincly pushed against him causing Inuyasha to freeze for a second to gain a little control.

Kagome stopped rubbing his back once he tensed. "Sorry." She whispered.

"No, don't apologize. It's just when I'm with you I just don't think I can control myself sometimes." He admitted. Kagome nodded. Inuyasha once again continued. He kissed his way down her body but stopped at reaching her core. He ascended back up her body in the same manor. He simply just enjoyed touching her at that moment.

Despite the darkness of the bathroom Kagome could clearly see his smoldering amber eyes. She felt guilty for making him wait. Maybe she should make love right then and there. "I'm sorry for making you wait. Um, if if you really want to…" She trailed off.

Inuyasha's eyes widened slightly. He kissed her deeply lifting her up against the wall. Kagome gasped. Her hands rested on his shoulders. Was this it? Was it really going to happen? She closed her eyes tightly squeezing his shoulders waiting for the pain.

Inuyasha seriously at that moment was ready to take her because of her words. But when he saw her eyes so tightly closed and thought of where they were, he just didn't have the heart. She wasn't ready. Not like this.

Kagome eyes opened noticing that nothing was happening. Inuyasha chuckled holding her by the thighs as he stepped out of the shower. He gently sat her down on the toilet seat and grabbed a towel wrapping it snuggly around her. He too grabbed a towel wrapping it around his waist before flipping on the light.

Kagome looked at him confused and shyly wondering why he stopped.

"We have time. I can wait for you." He smirked. Kagome smiled nodding. She jumped up from her sitting position and wrapped her arms around his neck. The hardness though still dug into her stomach making her feel guilty still. She backed away looking down then back up at him.

"Does er, it hurt?" She whispered very quietly.

Inuyasha raised his eyebrow slightly. "Don't worry." He laughed slightly. Sure yeah it hurt like hell but he wasn't about to let her know. He would have to take care of it as soon as he got her out of the bathroom.

Kagome bite her lip slightly contemplating before coming to a decision. "Um, Inuyasha if you want I up can well you know. That is if you show me how and well want me too." She blushed but looked him straight in the eye never wavering.

Inuyasha's eyes doubled in size did she just say what he thought she did. Oh the gods were going to make this hard. He contemplated a second. "Are you sure?" He pressed. Somehow he thought she felt obligated.

Kagome nodded without hesitation. "I want to." She murmured softly. Inuyasha smirked at her. He grabbed removed his towel from his waist and handed it to her easing he against the wall once again. He placed a chaste kiss against her lips and reached for her hand.

Kagome felt nervous but was oddly excited to try something new with him. She jumped slightly once she was touching him. It was strange. He was hard yet his skin was smooth and firm almost soft. He groaned leaning his head into the crook of her head. Her naive hands touching him were almost enough to push him over the edge.

Kagome experimented a little by squeezing him slightly. She stopped hearing him whimper. She had never thought she would hear him ever whimper. She let go instantly. "I'm sorry did I I hurt you?" She questioned.

Inuyasha groaned in annoyance but remembered she didn't know what she was doing. "No, it felt actually pretty good." He huskily breathed.

Inuyasha reached for her hand placing on his shaft once again. She circled her hands around him and he held his hands around her. "Just move your hand down." He whispered. With his help she guided her hand painfully slow down his shaft. "Then back up." He explained. Kagome repeated the motions. It wasn't long before he let go of her hand allowing her to be on her own.

Inuyasha growled bracing his hands on either side of her head against the wall. The feeling in his loins was amazing. He wasn't quite sure he had felt quite like this before. Kagome moved her hands quicker. Inuyasha began to buck his hips ready for completion.

Kagome complained with his silent plea and moved in sync with his movements. Inuyasha snapped letting his seed loose. He raked his claws down the wall tearing the wallpaper along with swiping grooves into the wall. The towel placed in Kagome's other hand caught the liquid that he released.

Inuyasha went limp against her, but Kagome didn't mind though. She brought her free hand up and rubbed his back gently. She raised her hand up to rub it through his hair and gently closer to one of his velvety soft ears. Inuyasha purred softly as he nuzzled against her neck. Kagome giggled a little as the rumbling of his chest tickled her.

"Feel better?" She asked discarding the towel in the hamper that sat next to the toilet seat.

"Keh, yea." He murmured. He backed away a little with a devious smirk. "It was amazing." He still grinned. Kagome blushed but too smiled.

"Com'ere." He called out whisking her up in his arms. Inuyasha took them through the bathroom to the bedroom. He grabbed the sheet from the bed and traveled out to the balcony.

"What are you doing?" Kagome asked confused.

"It's almost six in the morning. I'm going to bed and your coming with me." He stated. He carried her to the hammock that sat in the corner of his balcony.

"Outside? And were still. Well you know unclothed." She argued. Inuyasha placed her on her feet removing the towel from her body. He wrapped the sheet around them and laid down against the soft hammock.

"You are such a pain in the ass you know that?" Kagome groaned leaning against him.

Inuyasha smirked raising and eyebrow. "Kagome cursing?" He teased.

"Huh, I guess I've been spending too much time with you." She decided.

"Hmm, nah I don't think that's quite possible." Inuyasha declared.

"I grow tired of impudence." Naraku screamed amongst the demon in which sat at his table. "I want both Rin and Kagome. And I want them now.

"Well well well having troubles I see." A snide man whispered leaning against the frame of the door.

"Bankotsu. What a surprise. What do you want?" Naraku seethed.

"Well you see my gang has also grown restless with that of Inuyasha and Sesshomaru's gang. So I suggest we work together and simply annihilate them." Bankotsu smiled as he entered the room. He swiftly knocked off the head of a demon with his sword and took the discarded demons seat.

"I see. What are the complications in our joining?" Naraku spat hating the demon that now sat in front of him.

"Straight to the point Naraku. That is what I love about you." Bankotsu barked. "Here are my terms. Inuyasha is mine. I want to severe his head on my own accord. And second. Well I hear that Inuyasha has found himself a woman. I want her for my own. A trophy if you will. Just so Inuyasha can turn in his grave." Bankotsu settled.

Naraku's eyes darkened. " Agreed." He murmered. "Perfect. I will take my leave then." Bankotsu sat up and walked out the door.

"My lord I thought you needed this Kagome." One of the demons spoke out.

"Hmm, why not let Bankotsu handle the dirty work. I can handle him." Naraku laughed darkly.

"But why not?" Kagome screamed at the top of her lungs.

"Because I said so." Inuyasha screamed back.

"I am tired of wearing all you clothes! We'll only be gone for an hour tops." Kagome yelled back. "You aint going to the mall. End of subject." Inuyasha hollered walking down the stairs.

"Why not?" Kagome proceeded to follow and badger him.

"Why not? Why the hell do you think? Naraku is after you or have you forgotten?" He spat turning to look at her. "Then why don't you come with me?" Kagome argued. "I aint got the time woman." He complained.

"Inuyasha? What if we took Kilala. We could have a driver stationed at every exit of the mall." Sango piped in too.

"Sango. Don't tell me your going to go along with this as well." Inuyasha yelled.

"Please oh please oh please." Rin begged. Inuyasha didn't know what to say at all three of the girls.

"I do believe you lost Inuyasha. I'll send some of my high class with them. They'll be safe." Sesshomaru decided.

"Keh. Fine." Inuyasha yelled. "Ahh, thank you thank you thank you." Kagome smiled kissing him.

"Here. Take this." Inuyasha murmured handing her a sheaved dagger. "What's this for?" Kagome asked. "Just take it. And don't forget you phone. Oh yea and hears a card." H again reached into his jacket pulling out a credit card.

"I don't need this. I can use my own money." Kagome decided placing the card back into his jacket. "You could. Or you could just stop being stuburn and take and use this. Get what you want." He slipped the card into the back of her jeans and pecked her lips and then walked off.

"Thank you." She yelled. Inuyasha just waved his hand above his head as he continued walking off.

"Miroku come on. We have business to attend to." Inuyasha growled. Both Miroku and Sesshomaru proceeded after Inuyasha.

All three of the girls smiled at one another. "Woohoo! Lets go shopping!" Rin declared taking both Sango and Kagome's hands.

The mall had not been busy at all. So Rin, Sango, and Kagome enjoyed it to the fullest. Although they had agreed to only take an hour time flew by rapidly. Hey how was a girl supposed to shop and keep the time?

Kagome plopped down into a resting couch with five filled up bags. "I don't think I can take another step. No wonder you have so many clothes Sango." Kagome complained. She began to peep through her bag at some of the articles of clothing she had collected. Sango as well as Rin had worked as a fashion coordinator for her. Some of the clothes she was a little uncomfortable with.

Rin noticed her studying her clothes in her bag and giggled. "What?" She questioned.

"Huh, er I don't know about some these that you picked up. This thing has a zipper in the crouch." Kagome questioned holding up a tight pair of black leather shorts.

"Oh, come on Kagome you looked hot in them. If you've got the body flaunt it. I'm sure Inuyasha won't be able to keep his hands off you." Sango cooed walking up to the girls with frozen mochas.

"Nah, I think he already cant keep his hands off her. Based on what Sesshy says anyways." Rin smiled taking a sip off her mocha.

Kagome's face lit up slightly remembering the past events of that morning. "Come on guys stop picking on me. I can't help it if I can't seem to screw every guy I meet. I just… I just have morals that's all." Kagome decided.

Rin and Sango both giggled taking a seat on either side of Kagome. "Yes, I do forget that you are virginal." Sango laughed. Kagome smacked her across the thigh. "Hey! Come on maybe you aren't but Rin is still a virgin." She yelled.

"Yea, but you see Rin's not prude." Sango laughed knowing that she was rattling the girl.

"AHH! I am not prude!" Kagome yelled gaining the attention of the whole coffee shop. "Ugh" She lowered into the comfort of the couch apparently embarrassed by the strange and suggested looks she was getting. "Look me and Inuyasha kiss all the time. I am not prude I just don't want to jump the gun all right! If you and Miroku want to have sex have fun. I'm waiting." She whispered quickly.

"Ok ok, I'm just giving you a hard time Kagome." Sango smiled. She was so excited to just be with her friends. It was like old times. Her and Rin making fun of sweet old Kagome.

"So um, Sango. What exactly was it like your first time?" Rin asked suddenly curious on the subject.

It was Sango's turn to finally get quite and a little embarrassed. She now had not only Rin but Kagome's full attention as well.

"Well. After Miroku had saved me I came back to the club and stayed there ever since. A lot of the clubbers and other members gave me a hard time. I was the only girl with the gang. But, Miroku was always there to stand up for me and well make me feel better. Except when he was being lecherous." Both Rin and Kagome laughed knowing about Miroku's wondering hands.

"Keep going." Kagome pushed.

"Um, well we danced often and at night would watch movies in the theatre room. Everyone had us pegged as "together" in the club. So people began to stop nagging me all together. I even shared his apartment with him. One night he just kissed me. It hadn't been my first kiss but it had been more mind-blowing than anything in my life. But don't tell him that. So well one thing led to another and it just happened." She sighed.

"Did it hurt?" Kagome wondered out loud.

"Well, It was uncomfortable at first yes. But it doesn't last. I really think it depends on how well the guy takes care of you." Sango explained.

"Well then how exactly do you know what to do?" Kagome still questioned.

Sango smiled. "Well it honestly just comes. I was so nervous with Miroku at first. I was afraid that I would do something completely stupid myself. He took the time to explain, he was really patient. In the end it paid off." She laughed slightly to herself.

"Patient huh." Kagome mused to herself. Inuyasha had been and said he would be patient and wait for her. She couldn't help but smile slightly.

"Wow Kagome why so curious?" Rin finally piped back in.

"Huh um, well I just you know. I just wanted to know like you." Kagome argued.

Sango's grin turned feline. "You're not really thinking about sleeping with Inuyasha are you?"

"Huh, well I mean not like today or anything but maybe. Oh, I don't know." Kagome admitted.

"You know I think it's kind of funny. Inuyasha seems so gruff almost like a jerk. And yet you've completely fallen for him. He doesn't seem your type at all." Rin seriously concluded getting up and throwing away her empty mocha.

Sango to became a little more serious. "Kagome be careful okay. I mean Inuyasha has quite the rep. I don't really know how much gentleness is in his personality. Of course when he looks at you I always wonder." Sango smiled.

"Oh well lets continue shopping and put this conversation on hold!" Rin decided walking out of the coffee house.

'A rep huh? Hmm I don't care what they say he is to gentle.' Kagome decided before being dragged from the comfort of the couch. "Ugh, come on we have gone into every store!"

"No we haven't we still have to run to Victoria Secrets." Rin announced. "Yea Kagome unless you want to just go commando." Sango teased.

"Very funny!" Kagome groaned upon entering the risqué store. Unlike the other two girls Kagome found exactly what she wanted and quick. She wasn't much of a thong fan. Instead she just grabbed some of the lace-trimmed boy cut panties. Kagome made her way to the register bought her items and the waited on her two friends to decide. She ventured further into the store looking at the other various objects to occupy herself with. She didn't know how but she came across a red satiny material and picked up the object. She blushed slightly.

'Oh a Teddy…' She thought looking over the contents. It was a see thru lace-trim that fit snuggly across the breasts and flowed down the bottom. The panties were made of the same see thru material as the top. It was Inuyasha's favorite color.

'WOW…what am I thinking?' Kagome scolded herself before dropping the material back into its container.

"Would he like it?" a voice spoke behind her. Kagome jumped slightly. She turned around to see a lady wearing a complete black outfit that looked two sizes to small. Her nametag read Yura.

"No I well I er, I don't know. I mean I don't think he's like that. Well I mean that is." Kagome sounded like a broken record.

"Oh, don't be silly doll. All guys would like to see their girl in something as sexy as that. I bet you he would be drooling. Unless that is your too conservative. Guys aren't going to like a girl who sets so many boundaries. What if he starts to think you just don't care?" Yura snidely added smiling deviously.

"Huh. But um…" Kagome thought. 'Am I really too conservative.' Kagome wondered.

"Really sweetie don't tell me that you're this childish. That isn't attractive at all. It simply won't do." Yura pushed.

"Childish." Kagome spoke with uncertainty. Did Inuyasha think of her in that way? Childish. Sure she really wasn't experienced but childish.

"Or is it simply that you can't afford it I wonder. You don't really look that all expensive." Yura insulted looking at Kagome who was wearing sweat pants and a t-shirt.

"Hey here's an idea why don't you butt out." Sango's voice rang from behind Kagome.

"Hmm, I see. Well that really is too bad." Yura smarted as she walked away from Kagome.

"She's probably just jealous." Rin added as both her and Sango walked up to Kagome. Kagome smiled at her two friends and looked back at the object that had began the whole crazy conversation.

"You really do want to buy it for him don't you?" Sango asked slightly surprised.

"What? No way! The only way I would bring myself to wear that would be if every other undergarment in the world was gone." Kagome yelled stomping out of the store.

Rin giggled and looked at Sango and then the red teddy. "Are you thinking what I am?" She asked Sango.

Sango laughed and shook her head. "You are such and imp Rin." Rin laughed and picked up the red teddy.

Kagome was so aggravated. She was tired of talking about her sex life. Or well lack off. Okay so she wasn't some whore who screwed everyone that she met! She made her way down the escalator walking rather clumsily down it. In her frustration Kagome easily lost her footing and missed the last step. She collided with a hard body non gently.

"Oh I'm sorry I guess I wasn't really paying attention to what I was doing." She murmured dropping the bags and rubbing her nose in the process.

"Oh, you mean to tell me that a beauty like you isn't falling for me after all." The man whispered.

Kagome looked at him. He gave her a real uncomfortable vibe that she couldn't quite explain. The man was to say in the least gorgeous. His black hair was braided neatly at the base of his neck. It flowed to about the small of his back. He had a strange tattoo on his forehead and deep black purple eyes.

"You know you might want to be careful who you bump into. You never know when something bad might happen." He cooed dangerously.

"Kagome!" Sango screamed from above the escalator. Kagome glanced up at the girls and then back in front of her. Only now the man that was previously in front of her had disappeared.

"What…" Kagome whispered.

"Kagome!" Sango yelled again coming down the escalator with Rin. "Inuyasha just called we gotta get back to the club." Kagome nodded following as well still wondering about the strange man.

"Are you sure?" Inuyasha screamed at Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru gave him a snide look. "I am never wrong Inuyasha. One of my close subordinates spotted him. He's completing a deal and he's doing it tonight. We will be there and stop this once and for all."

Miroku took a seat at the bar rotating his sore neck as Sesshomaru carried on. "There is one thing that quite bothers me." Upon gaining both amber-eyed men's attention Miroku continued. "This all sounds too easy. Naraku is anything but careless. I smell a trap."

"Keh well if the fucker wants to set traps fine. Me and tesiaga will just plow through it." Inuyasha growled ready to end all this. "You do realize he is trying to lure out Kagome and Rin do you not?" Miroku commented.

"Well they aint going." Inuyasha decided

"What do you mean we aren't going?" Kagome questioned followed by Sango and Rin who just entered the club. "What are you talking about?" She pressed on.

"Nothing its business. Don't worry about it." Inuyasha dodged standing up to leave the room. Kagome firmly grabbed hold of his bicep not planning on letting go. "When it involves me I'm worried. It's Naraku isn't it? Tell me!" Kagome screamed out annoyed. Inuyasha growled lifting spinning Kagome around to look straight at him. "Look. I'm part of this gang weather you like it or not and if it involves Naraku I'm going."

"Uh, Hey gang member over here why the hell can't I go?" Sango scorched in the corner.

"Sango keep quite. You're staying here with Kagome and Rin. As for you babe technically you really aren't a member of this gang. So I guess really you have no say in this." Inuyasha smarted. He swore he could see fire in her eyes.

"Fine then make me a member." Kagome naively spoke. Sesshomaru coughed, Miroku grinned, Sango blushed, and Rin was as naïve as Kagome. Inuyasha smirked wishing he could tease her further in the subject but he needed to leave. "Hmm, Kagome. Trust me right now I would love nothing more than to take you. But I don't have the time. You're staying that's final. Naraku wants you. I wont have it." Inuyasha decided. Sesshomaru had already begun to walk off. Inuyasha followed with Miroku behind him.

'take me? Wait…' "Wouldn't I me safer with you?" Kagome yelled. But it was to late the door had already slammed and that was that.

"Take me?" Kagome whispered again. "He meant sleep with you." Sango informed. "Oh don't start this sleep with Inuyasha thing." Kagome yelled aggravated with the world. "I didn't mean it like that. It's an initiation."

"WHAT! You mean I can't be in this gang unless I sleep with him!" Kagome yelled. "So pretty much I just told him that I want well I wanted to…"

"Sleep with him. Yea pretty much." Sango laughed.

"Wait a minute Sango. How did you become a part of this gang then?" Rin wondered.

"Easy I slept with Inuyasha." Sango blurted out.

Kagome's eyes widened. She didn't know what to say. Yea Inuyasha had been with girls but her best friend.

"Oh, come on Kagome I am just joking. After Miroku and me got together it happened. You see he is of a leadership role so it counted." Sango grinned when Kagome gave her a dirty look. "Not funny!" Kagome seethed.

"So what do you suppose we do now?" Rin asked.
