Chapter 11

The fire pit looks so pretty, we are all sitting around the bonfire trying to figure out what to do next.

"Kagome, want to go for a swim?" I turn to Sango and see her untie her skirt so she was only in her bathing suit.

I smile and nod; swimming in the ocean at night would be fun. I strip down to my green bikini and run after Sango into the water.

(Inuyasha POV)

I hear Miroku get up and I look at him quizzically, "Oi monk, where do you think you're going?" When he doesn't respond, I turn to where he was staring and see Sango in a bathing suit. I was going to make fun of him for being such a pervert, but I can't look away since Kagome starts undressing as well.

She's wearing a tiny green bikini and I can't take my eyes off of her. Her slim figure contrasted the fullness of her chest and her well-toned stomach is mouth-watering with the slight sign of abs. Then she takes off her shorts to show her mile long legs. She can't be human…she looks more like a goddess.

When she starts running, it's like a slow motion scene in a movie…perfection…Oh Kami help me. I just want to run over and savage that body and mouth right now. Starting to feel the fire in my belly grow into unsatisfied desire, I shake my head roughly and tear my eyes off of Kagome with extraordinary effort, "Wanna take a walk monk?"

"Good idea; seeing how you reacted like me at the beautiful sight before us, we need the cool air."

"K-keh!"

(Kagome POV)

The second we touch the water, we both sigh in content. "This feels amazing!" I groan in agreement. "Oh! Kags, you want to check out the yacht?"

"Good idea, I've never been on a boat before. I'll race you!" Without a warning we both start swimming as fast as we can, giggling the whole way.

Sango wins easily and we can't stop laughing for some reason until we look up. I say, "Wow, this…this is huge!"

Sango agrees, "Yeah totally! How do we get on?"

I swim over a little bit, "San, there's a ladder back here." All of a sudden, something grabs my leg and pulls me down. A rising panic rises in the pit of my stomach, so I kick out instinctively. I come up and gasp for air.

"Kagome, are you alright? What happened?"

"Something's out here with us Sango! Someone just grabbed at me!"

Sango's face becomes very serious, "let's just get on the boat, and see what it is from a safe distance." We climb up the ladder and get on the boat.

We look over the edge and don't see anything but the clear blue ocean. "Sango, it felt like a hand, I don't think it was a fish."

"Maybe the guys are trying to pull some sick prank?" I realize how badly I was shaking, shit who would do such a thing? If it was one of the guys, I'm so kicking their ass! I shrug in response and look back over after hearing movement to see if I can see someone. Wait, is that Inuyasha?

(Inuyasha POV)

We walk back to the party to see Akio and the girls are out of sight. "Miroku, where did they run off to?" Miroku looks around and shrugs. A chill runs up my spine; I've got a bad feeling about this. I sniff for either Kagome or Sango's scent, but the ocean masks it very well. I hear Sango yell Kagome's name, in a panic. It sounded like it was coming from the boat. I jump towards the yacht and land in the water already halfway there. I swim the rest of the way as I see them climb the ladder.

I climb up and look Kagome up and down to make sure she's okay; she doesn't look hurt, thank God. Wait…why do I care so much?

"Inuyasha, that wasn't funny, I could have drowned!"

I stare at Kagome dumbfounded, "Huh? What are you talking about?"

Kagome yells, "Don't play stupid!"

I yell back, "I'm not! I don't know what you're talking about!"

Sango asks, "You didn't grab Kagome?"

The image of grabbing Kagome and kissing her roughly crossed my mind again, so I shake my head again to clear it along with denying that I did anything.

Sango explains, "Well someone grabbed her and pulled her down. We thought it was you because you came out of nowhere and right after it happened."

My blood starts to boil, someone touched my Kagome…did I just say my Kagome? What's going on with me? "I didn't do it; I heard you scream out Kagome's name and swam over to see what was going on." I blush slightly knowing how worried I got, but there's no way in hell I'm telling her that.

Kagome asks hesitantly, "So…if you didn't do it…then who pulled me under water?" We all drop into silence after this question was brought up. Was someone really after Kagome? Or was it some idiot's version of a prank? Either way, I'm so kicking their ass when I find out who it was!
