"We might be trapped in here forever. We should take off our clothes and use body heat to keep warm."
"Miroku, we're inside the main cabin, the heat is on." Sango told Miroku, rolling her eyes.
"I know! We've been here for 32 hours already. I'm ready to go back to our cabin; I haven't kissed you properly in 32 hours!" He said as Sango blushed.
"Well, I'm sure InuYasha and Kagome are doing fine…"
"Yeah yeah yeah…he needs to make the moves on her."
"Actually I agree with you, I think they would be good for each other. Have you seen how happy he is with her?"
"Yeah, he tries not to smile but I can see it. Hey I think the snow is letting up a little bit." Miroku told her.
Sango rushed to the window and saw a slight change in the snow. "It has let up a bit…but at this rate we won't be out of here for another two days." She sighed, walking back to her small cot that the service people pulled out for all the people trapped inside the main cabin.
"All we can do now is hope that the snow lets up and pray to kami that InuYasha and Kagome are getting along."
* * * * *
"Oh….so when you say 'claim' what does that mean…exactly?" Kagome asked slowly.
"Uh…basically, it's sort of like sex." InuYasha explained.
"Sort of?" Kagome asked tilting her head to the side.
InuYasha smirked thinking about how cute she looked. "When demons claim their mate, the experience is much more than ordinary sex. If I mated with you…for example…it would probably be the best thing you've ever felt." He said confidently.
Kagome sat there with her face entirely red. She gulped slowly as she played his words back in her head. '…best thing you've ever felt.'
"So have you mated before?"
"No, when demons mate, it's for life."
"So you seem awfully confident for a guy who's never done it."
"I don't have to be confident, my instincts will take over and I'll know exactly what to do." He winked at her.
She felt her cheeks redden again. 'Ugh! Why am I constantly blushing?!' she thought. 'I just don't think I can help myself when it comes to him.' She bit her bottom lip.
InuYasha watched her closely. His eyes trailed down to her lips as she bit them. They looked so juicy, and smooth. He just wanted to touch them to see if they were as soft as they looked.
Kagome looked up at him and saw him staring at her lips. She couldn't help the smile that spread across them. 'So it seems he does want to kiss me.' She thought happily. Before she knew it they were leaning two inches from each other.
He ran a thumb across her lips and her eyes became half lidded. She leaned into his touch and her lips slightly grazed his. She sat back quickly and mumbled a 'sorry'.
"Why are you apologizing?" he asked slightly amused
"Um, well…I just, accidentally—"
"Don't worry about it if you want to kiss me you can…"
Kagome sat there with her mouth open for a moment. "What?! You're the one rubbing on my lips, so you obviously want to kiss me." She said crossing her arms.
He moved closer to her and put his arms on her waist. "So what if I do?" he asked huskily in her ear.
That same rush of heat surged through her body. "Um…ahh…" she reached up ran a finger along his chest. "I don't think that would be such a good idea right now."
He pulled her closer and placed his nose in the crook of her neck to breathe in her scent. "I guess you're right. Because you're scent smells delicious right now."
A blush spread across her cheeks as her hand stopped its ministrations.
He kissed her neck and she shuddered. InuYasha backed away when her scent grew stronger. She walked into the bedroom to catch her breath and calm down and let the color return to her face.
She lay across the bed and let her thoughts wander. 'So, if I want him to kiss me, I have to get my body under control'
'I need to get myself under control, but she does something to me and I just can't help myself. I need to control this; I can't stroll on in there and mate with her…no matter how much I want to.' InuYasha thought, leaning back on the couch.
He'd had plenty of girlfriends in the past, but none of them had his demon yearning to come out and pin them to bed and give her so much pleasure that the people outside could hear her screaming his name. Kagome was different she was innocent and pure, but he would love to know what she looked like while waves of passion were washed over her body and her back arched into him and she breathed his name out over and over and over…
'So that's not the reaction I was trying to have.' He thought looking down at his pants. 'Ok, think cold thoughts….cold thoughts….or think of something gross. Hmmm…ok that definitely worked. Thanks Sesshomaru.' He smirked. Thinking of his brother being an asshole definitely took the…fire right out of him.
Kagome rolled over on her stomach. 'So I don't think that…whatever that was, counted as a kiss. I don't want to kiss him, because he'd have too much to say about that. But how to make him kiss me….' While Kagome schemed InuYasha was thinking of ways to calm himself around her.
After another hour of thinking Kagome thought she had a good enough idea. She went to her bag and pulled out a tube of strawberry lip gloss. She put on only enough to make her lips slightly shiny. She walked out and sat beside InuYasha on the couch. She stretched a bit and asked him "You don't mind if I stretch out do you?" He replied with a shake of his head.
She crawled over to him and put her head in his lap and looked up at him. "Thanks" she said smiling sweetly at him.
"No problem."
"Are you tired?"
"A little bit…why?"
"Um…" she looked away from his eyes and bit her bottom lip, which his eyes trailed down to hungrily. "I was thinking, that we could nap together…if you wanted." She looked back up again with pouty lips. His eyes slowly went back up to hers.
"Sure….only because you want to." He smirked at her.
They got up from the couch and she grabbed his hand and pulled him towards the bedroom. This felt like something that would happen in a movie, the sex scene, when the pretty young girl leads her boyfriend to bed for the first time.
At that thought Kagome stopped in her tracks. She stopped so suddenly InuYasha bumped into her slightly. He put his hands on her hips and asked if she was ok.
"Yeah, I just thought of something, but it's nothing. Let's get in bed." She said quickly, not realizing her words.
They got in bed and Kagome sat up higher so they would be face to face. He lay on his back while she lay on her side facing him. She wrapped her leg around his torso, since she was too high to wrap her leg around his waist. Her foot sat between his legs and his hand was on her thigh.
After a while Kagome got a little hot and started to wiggle around, after a minute of wiggling InuYasha reached down and grabbed her foot.
"Stop moving." He tried to say calmly.
"Oh sorry." He felt the heat rise to her cheeks without looking at her.
"Don't be embarrassed, just stop moving your foot across my crotch." He told her, letting go of her foot.
"I didn't realize I did it… does it bother you?" she asked slyly
"More than you know."
"So….if I did it again….what would happen…" she said as she moved her foot slowly.
"I don't think you would want to do that right now." He said as he flipped her on her back and got on top of her.
"Why not?" she asked rubbing her hand across his cheek
He pinned her hands above her head. "Because you don't know what you're getting yourself into."
"So if you kissed me right now….could you stop at that?" she asked as she nervously bit her lip.
"Probably not…is that what this is all about?" he smirked
"Yes…" she wrapped her legs around his waist and pulled his body onto hers, "but I had no idea it'd go this far…"
"You are so innocent, I don't think you're ready yet." He kissed her forehead and rolled on his back, pulling her on top of him.
She straddled him, sitting up to speak. "How do you know? Maybe you corrupted me." She pouted.
He laughed and said "I can smell you did you forget that?"
"I guess you won this round…but don't forget that I can do some things to you too." She said laying back down.

"They should be doing ok though…nothing too drastic." Sango told Miroku as they lay down.
