Silent Reflection
Inuyasha is the most wanted male in all of his high school. The ladies crave him and the guys idolize him. They, however, do not know that he is dating the quietest of the students in Shikon High, Higurashi Kagome. In fact, nobody knows they're dating.

Last Piece of the Puzzle
All of a sudden, Souta felt very afraid of being in a house alone with his father…
--
Kagome and Inuyasha returned by six pm when dinner would be served at the Higurashi residence. They were both grinning and laughing, their fingers interlaced with the other. Souta was still watching T.V while Akira remained in the kitchen. As soon as the shrine door slid open, Souta launched at Inuyasha.
"Inu-nii," He hissed as he made it to his sister and Inuyasha. Kagome looked down at Souta and frowned.
"What's up kid?" She inquired as Souta looked at Inuyasha with desperation in his eyes. Inuyasha smelt something was wrong with Souta and frowned.
"Can I speak to Inuyasha alone for a second?" Souta pleaded. "Please, it's important!"
Kagome frowned. "What's wrong Souta?"
Souta shook his head. "No- no I have to tell Inuya-…"
"You're home!" Akira smiled as he walked out of the kitchen, his arms spread wide open. Inuyasha and Kagome exchanged knowing glances before Kagome went to hug her father. Just because she knew the truth didn't mean she should let Akira know she knew the truth.
"What's for dinner?" Kagome asked as Akira smiled, wrapping his arm around her shoulder.
"Food," He snickered, "wanna help me finish up?"
Sending Inuyasha a knowing glance, Kagome nodded. "Sure.
As soon as Inuyasha knew Kagome and Akira were out of earshot, he turned to Souta. "What's up? You smelt disturbed runt." Inuyasha spoke in a hushed voice as Souta nodded. The half-demon's ears flicked every now and then to catch the sound of Kagome's heartbeat.
Stable so far… he thought.
"It's in my room," Souta tugged on Inuyasha's sleeve, "come on Inu-nii!"
--
Inuyasha was standing by the door as Souta reached in underneath his bed. Feeling his hand rub against the smooth leather surface, Souta pulled it out and walked over to Inuyasha, his eyes downcast.
"I found this today…" Souta mumbled as Inuyasha frowned, taking the black leather book out of his hands. The amber eyes met with Souta's dark eyes and Inuyasha could see fear dancing around the little kid's orbs.
"What is it runt?" Inuyasha asked as he moved to sit down on Souta's bed. Souta was sitting on the floor, his hands fisted in his lap. Souta couldn't look into Inuyasha's eyes and that made Inuyasha curious—in a bad way.
"Souta?" Inuyasha asked in a much more serious tone. The little boy finally looked up.
"Look in the binder." Souta mumbled as Inuyasha looked down at the black book.
It was heavy, he'd give it that much but what was in it?
Just one way to find out…
Inuyasha opened the cover—
--
Kagome was in the kitchen with Akira helping him finish the pasta they were to have for dinner that night. Kagome was scared, definitely, but she had to keep up her act while Souta talked to Inuyasha… whatever her little brother wanted to tell her boyfriend. Probably some guy-stuff, a girl or whatever. Kagome hummed a quiet tune as Akira fished through the fridge, trying to find some yogurt.
"So how was your day Kagome?" Akira inquired as Kagome shrugged.
"The same." She replied as Akira pulled his head out of the fridge.
"Same? You were out with Inuyasha today!"
Kagome glanced at her dad. Way to state the obvious dad… Kagome thought sarcastically as she stirred the pot that had the pasta boiling in it.
"Yeah, the same. We went around, ate, and did our homework… what we usually do."
"I don't like him." Akira stated bluntly as Kagome looked at Akira for a good two minutes before turning back to her pasta. Everybody else in the entire world loved Inuyasha – hell her real father even showed signs of admiration towards her boyfriend and here was her step-dad. Akira had no hope and showed no hope that he might possibly like Kagome.
"That isn't my problem is it?" Kagome replied strongly as her grip on the ladle tightened. Suddenly, she felt herself being jerked away from the stove and being pressed tightly against the counter. Her eyes widened as she saw Akira leaning over her, a deadly expression on his face.
"It is you problem." He hissed. "If I don't like him then you cannot date him… understood?"
Kagome eyes narrowed. "I can date whoever I want… father."
Bold.
Just too bold.
The back of Akira's hand came in contact with Kagome's cheek and her head snapped sideways. The sound vibrated through the kitchen and Kagome knew, without a doubt, that Inuyasha heard it. Turning her head back at a flaming Akira, Kagome could only glance at door of the kitchen to find a pale Souta and a seething Inuyasha.
"Get off OF HER!!" Inuyasha roared as he lunged forward and punched Akira in the temple. Kagome spun into Inuyasha's arms as Akira sprawled onto the floor. Inuyasha dug into his back pocket and pulled out his car keys. He threw them to Souta.
"Go start my car runt and get your things. You and your sis are sleeping over tonight."
It wasn't a question. It was a command.
Souta didn't even argue as he raced out of the kitchen to quickly pack some of his things. He knew that his sister should have some clothing at Inuyasha's house so he didn't bother getting some of her things packed. Within five minutes, Souta was sitting in the backseat of Inuyasha's car with Kagome in the passenger's seat. Inuyasha buckled his seatbelt before monstrously pulling out of the lot.
"The fuck was that?!" Inuyasha hissed. "What right does that bitch have to slap you?!"
It enraged him. Nobody could touch his Kagome but him and like hell anybody had the right to slap or physically hurt her! Inuyasha would kill if anybody did and it was only in Akira's fortune that Inuyasha was in a partially good mood… after finding the little black binder that is.
It was the last piece of the puzzle.
--
The ride to the Takahashi place was rather quiet and Kagome was grateful. She didn't want to talk about the kitchen incident just yet—especially not in front of her little brother. Inuyasha pulled up into the parking lot and Souta tore out of the car, ready to take over his sister's boyfriend's mansiony house thing.
Kagome looked over at her boyfriend and smiled. "Thanks koinu."
He brought his hand up and caressed her cheek lightly, "Anything for you babe."
As Inuyasha and Kagome got out of the car, he saw the big black book sitting on the backseat, where Souta was sitting just a little while ago. Inuyasha frowned, reaching in to pick up the book. The runt brought this thing… excellent…
Inuyasha was planning on telling Kagome what he found—what Souta found. Inuyasha understood why Souta felt the need to tell him instead of his sister. Kagome was already going through a lot and adding this little fact just yet wasn't a good idea. Inuyasha would tell Kagome in due time.
With the book tucked underneath his arm, Inuyasha walked hand in hand with Kagome up to the mansion where the butlers had the door wide open. Nodding at them, the two walked in to find Souta already changed and chewing on a cookie in the living space, watching some television.
"Go do something productive runt!" Inuyasha grunted. "All you do is watch the damn box."
Souta pretended to be shocked. "Television is love."
"You need a better love then." Inuyasha murmured as he tugged his girlfriend up to his bedroom, already wanting to speak to her about that odious slap her father had given her a little less than an hour ago.
Closing the door behind him, Inuyasha dropped the black book onto his desk before jumping onto the bed beside Kagome. Squealing, she attempted to fight him off as he assaulted her with tickles in all of her soft points. Attempting to wrestle him off of her, Kagome's hands found themselves locked with his fuzzy appendages, rubbing to her –and his- hearts content. A soft purr rumbled out of Inuyasha's chest as he collapsed beside her, his arm comfortably hugging her around the waist.
"I love you…" He whispered, licking the lobe of her ear. Kagome felt a shudder run up her spine.
"I love you too," She turned to face him, bringing her hand up to trace his features, "not a lot of guys would be willing to take their girlfriend to Hiroshima to find out information regarding her warped past."
Inuyasha smirked, showing off his teeth. "Well not all guys are the Inuyasha Takahashi…" Bringing his nose down to her neck, Inuyasha inhaled her scent as his lips bruised her, kissing her neck and cheek rather passionately—extensively passionate. Kagome felt the airs of a moan pass through her lips as Inuyasha's lips worked wonders on her neck as his arm tightened around her waist. "Besides, didn't I tell you when we first started going out?" His lips were pressed against her neck as he spoke and Kagome felt—and Inuyasha no doubt smelt—her arousal spike.
"Tell me what?"
Inuyasha smirked as he flipped over and straddled Kagome, his hands pinning her hands down onto the bed. "I told you that if I were ever to mate… it'll be only to a certain priestess I know."
Kagome tapped her chin playfully. "I know quite a few priestesses… which might you be talking about koinu."
"Oh shut up." Inuyasha rolled his eyes as he leaned forward and captured Kagome's lips in a bruising and searing kiss. Her hands wrapped around his neck as Inuyasha used his hands to keep up lifted up off of Kagome like their lips worked in the utmost perfection. His silvery mane curtained them as he began to lie down, still trying to keep his weight off of Kagome yet still blanket her with his body.
Inuyasha's ears tweaked as he pulled away from Kagome, allowing both of them to catch up on the one minute miss on breathing. But he didn't want to part his bodily connection from Kagome…
As Kagome panted heavily, Inuyasha's lips traveled down the column of her neck, placing kisses and licking her whenever he sought appropriate. Kagome's hands combed down Inuyasha's long silky mane as his left hand had fisted a handful of Kagome's hair.
Frenzy and passion consumed them both as Inuyasha's fangs grazed against the soft teaser point on her neck. Kagome's lips found Inuyasha's cheek as she began to kiss him, wanting to feel—wanting to taste.
Inuyasha couldn't help but bite back a moan that escaped his lips as his girlfriend began her ministrations. They seemed like two lovers deprived of water as they sought to find the reason for their existence. Kagome pushed Inuyasha off of her as she rolled on him, bracketing his body with her own. Her legs were wrapped around his waist as her hands were tangled in his silver hair while their lips locked again.
A cool breeze floated into Inuyasha's room through his partially open window and Kagome attempted to suppress a shiver while she kissed Inuyasha. That was the stopper for the male in the relationship…
Reluctantly, he pulled away from the kiss and panted.
"Cold?"
Kagome shook her head as she kept on kissing his cheek, trailing her lips around his face. Inuyasha chuckled as he, to his dismay, pushed his girlfriend off of him.
"I don't want you to catch a fever while making out with me."
Kagome pouted cutely. "How do I get a fever while I'm involved in such a heated activity?"
Inuyasha chuckled as he sat down beside Kagome. She crawled over to him and, intentionally, drew circles on this thigh. "I loooooove you." She drawled out slowly, batting her eyelashes at him.
That was it for the perverted half demon. His blood sung as he tackled Kagome and pressed his lips tightly onto hers again. Squealing into the kiss, Kagome allowed him to dominate her once more, feeling his tongue pressing against hers, his skin upon hers—his love in unison with hers.
Losing track of time, Inuyasha and Kagome continued kissing, their bodies never coming out of contact. Reluctantly, the half demon tore his lips away from the priestess and pressed his forehead against hers, both of them panting.
They looked into each others eyes…
"Can I ask you something?" He whispered as Kagome nodded, licking her lips, wanting to taste more of her boyfriend.
"What would you say if I wanted to make you mine—both in human and demon terms?"
Kagome's eyes widened. "You mean… mark me?"
Inuyasha nodded. "Yeah but… it'd be a court claim as of now. If you don't want, we won't mate until you're ready."
Giggling, Kagome brought a hand up and rubbed the base of his left ear that tweaked underneath her hold. "I'd say… bring it on koinu."
All the invitation Inuyasha needed…
--
Kagome was glaring at Inuyasha over dinner that night. Sesshomaru was snickering devilishly as Izayoi, Inuyasha's mother, watched with great amusement.
"You didn't say it'd hurt."
Inuyasha snorted. "I'm biting you babe… did you expect it to feel like I'm tickling you?"
Kagome crossed her arms. "Not tickle but I didn't think it'd hurt that much! You drew blood!"
"I had to draw blood!!"
"One would think after dating Inuyasha for so long, she'd know the basics on youkai mating." Inutaisho mused as Kagome shot him a deadly glare. Souta snickered along with Sesshomaru as they continued to watch the useless banter.
"Enough chit-chat!" Izayoi rolled her eyes. "Kagome is now claimed by Inuyasha whether it hurt or not. Legally she is not part of the Inu-Youkai clan."
Every race of demons had a clan they belonged to. Within the Inu-Youkai clan, all dog demons and their mates and offspring would reach to the other, should the alpha of their own little pack get injured. Back in Feudal days the Clans and Packs were highly looked for but in recent days, they were subtle—but still there.
The Inu-Youkai clan was in cognate with the Ookami-Youkai clan, meaning the wolves.
That meant Lang Kouga and Lao Ayame could also reach out to Inuyasha or any members of his racial clan if they so wish to do so.
After Izayoi's statement, dinner went by quietly.
--
After a smooth dinner, Souta, Kagome and Inuyasha were sitting in a private study room located somewhere in the half-demon's house. Kagome had a band-aid where Inuyasha had bitten her and Souta found it amusing.
"What was up with that slap?" Souta inquired as Kagome frowned.
"He said I couldn't date Inuyasha and I told him it's none of his business and—yeah…"
Inuyasha snarled dangerously as Souta drew random patterns with his finger on the distasteful black leather book. Inuyasha was still contemplating if death should be a good enough punishment for Akira.
"Well…" Souta glanced at a seething Inuyasha… "I kind of well—found this?"
The few moments after dinner where Kagome was speaking to Izayoi, Inuyasha told Souta that telling Kagome would be the best option. It was her hunt and this was part of her answers. Souta, though reluctant, agreed.
Kagome frowned, "What is it?"
Inuyasha had calmed down from his snarl-fest to interlace his fingers with Kagome's. He nudged her.
"Open it."
Souta slid the book towards her as Kagome frowned, using her free hand to peel open the cover. Instantly, her eyes widened as tears sprang into them. Inuyasha and Souta exchanged sad glances as a tear strolled down her right cheek.
"Oh my god…" She whispered.
This was it…
The last piece of the puzzle…
