Chapter 21: Haku
Letting go of Inuyasha's hand Kagome remembered her original goal. "Oh," she said as she bent down to pick up her things. "I'll be right back." Walking outside she placed her stuff on the ground. Grabbing the salt Kagome walked all around the house, spreading it on the ground. After that she grabbed the ginger, spreading it much like she did with the salt she walked back to the front of the house. Grabbing the holy water she mixed it around for a second before closing her eyes. As she muttered a quick chant the water flew through the air and surrounded the house, making an invisible shield.
Smiling at her work Kagome picked up everything and went back inside. Walking into the living room she saw Sango setting the table. "Dinner's ready Kagome, come eat." She said as she put the chicken on the table. Nodding Kagome sat down as she said, "I set a barrier around the house, nothing will get in here." Everyone nodded as they sat down to eat dinner.
After eating Kagome yawned, "I'm going to take a shower and go to bed I'm tired. Night guys." Hearing their calls of night Kagome walked up the stairs and into her room. Getting under the hot spray of her shower Kagome thought. "Haku…he most be a descendent of Inuyasha…" Kagome closed her eyes under the spray, "What is he to Midoriko though?" Opening her eyes Kagome sighed, she knew she wasn't going to be asleep for awhile.
Getting out of the shower Kagome dried off and then got dressed. Running downstairs she grabbed her laptop and the notes she had written. After bringing those up she came back down and grabbed Shippo. "Kagome, is Shippo staying with you?" Inuyasha said as Kagome began to walk back upstairs. "Yeah, I just want him near me." Inuyasha nodded as she disappeared upstairs.
Waiting until she was gone Sango said, "It looks like she's taking all of this well." Inuyasha nodded, lying back against the couch he looked up at the ceiling as he said. "I thought once we killed Naraku Kagome would finally get to be a teenager, but yet we come here and….it's crazy. There is so much more we have to worry about now. I'm glad it's not just us four anymore." Miroku and Sango nodded; thank god it was the weekend.
Once Shippo was safely tucked into her bed Kagome turned off the lights and walked over to her desk. Turning on the desk light and her computer she grabbed her ipod from the stereo and sat down at her desk. Putting her earphones in she looked at the notes she had written. Earlier she had looked through Kikyo's family tree and had found that Minako was indeed her ancestor. After that she began to look up things on Naraku, but there wasn't anything.
Kagome had tried for two hours, but she couldn't find anything. Sighing Kagome decided to see who this Haku person was. When a painting came up Kagome gasped, he really was Inuyasha's double. Looking at his family tree she saw Inutaisho's name, then Sesshomaru's and Inuyasha's. "Haku was apart of that family." Looking at the picture again her eyes began to glaze over once more.
A sixteen year old Midoriko ran through the forest, a smile on her face as she held her kimono up. Stopping in a clearing she looked around yelling. "Haku come out! I know you're there!" Suddenly a boy the same age as her jumped in front of her, causing the girl to giggle and wrap her arms around the boy. "I haven't seen you in days." Midoriko's muffled voice said as she snuggled her head into the boy's chest. Haku just looked down at the girl in his arms. "Keh, you know the woods aren't safe. Especially with that creepy man in your village."
"But with you watching over me I'm safe." Midoriko said to her best friend. Over the three years they had known each other they have become extraordinary close. Don't get Midoriko wrong, Minako was still her best friend…but Haku was so much more. He knew everything about her, about how she didn't want to be a priestess, how she wants to be a normal person and fall in love. He knows about how she wants to be a mother, and is greatly saddened that is can never happen. He knew everything…well almost everything.
Leaving her head on his chest Midoriko thought, "Only if I could do this more….be in his arms…" Midoriko was in love with Haku, she figured it out earlier this year. Every time she was away from him she found herself missing him, his jokes, his arrogant ways, his expressions…his everything. Midoriko was always sad that she couldn't see the half-demon as much as she wanted; they had to keep their friendship a secret.
Looking up Midoriko let go to see Haku looking at her. "Midoriko," he started, his gold eyes serious. "You know I will always protect you, but that man is not good. The way he looks at you…" Haku shuddered, "It makes my skin crawl, and he also looks at your friend like that too. Plus I smell that mans scent in the forest all the time, but when I try to find where it's coming from I can't."
Placing a hand on her cheek and watching as she leaned into it Haku continued. "I don't want anything happening to you Midoriko…you're my best friend, the only person in the world I trust and if I lost you…I don't know what I would do…" "Haku…" Midoriko whispered as she placed a hand over his, her brown eyes filling with tears. Haku looked at her, the girl he had fallen in love with since the day he met her. Sadly with her profession and what he was they could never be together.
He sighed, even though she was still in training she was out protecting the village, fighting demons. He was always scared because he had to just sit there and watch; and when she came to see him and had scratches and bruises on her body he wanted to throw up. He knew he had to tell her how he felt…even if she couldn't be with someone he wanted her to know he loved her.
Grabbing her hand Haku led Midoriko to their special tree, the tree where they met. "Why are we at the Goshinboku Haku?" Midoriko asked as they stood under the tree. This tree held many memories for both of them, they usually met here and they would sit in the tree branch where no one could see them and talk for hours. Cupping her cheek once again Haku said, "I have something to tell you." Closing his eyes for a second he opened them to look straight into Midoriko's. He loved her eyes, they were so unique…brown one minute then stormy grey the next.
"Midoriko, these last three years have been the best years ever, and that's because I met you. I know I'm not good at words and that I get irritated easily but I really do mean that. Whenever you're fighting demons I get scared, because I can't protect you with everyone else there. I know it's your job to do that but I still get scared. When you come see me with bruises I want to kill the bastard that did it to you. I know how you don't want to be a priestess but you you're a great one."
Haku rubbed her cheek with his thumb as he continued. "I know that you can't be with anyone because of your origin and that you probably don't feel the same way…but Midoriko…I love you. I've loved you since the moment I've met you." Midoriko's eyes began to tear up, holding Haku's hand to her face she whispered. "Oh Haku, how long I've wanted you to say that." Haku looked up at her with big eyes…no…she couldn't…
"I love you too Haku, so so much." Midoriko said as she looked straight at him. "Every time I'm not near you I want to be with you, I want to hear your voice, your laugh, your stupid comments… I want to be in your arms..." Midoriko blushed as she looked down, only for Haku to remove his hand from her cheek and put it under her chin, making her look up at him. "I want to be with you Haku." She whispered
"I want to be with you too Midoriko." Looking into her eyes Haku had the sudden urge to kiss those beautiful lips. "Midoriko," he whispered, "Can I kiss you?" Midoriko just nodded, a blush on her cheeks as she thought. "It's finally happening! He loves me!" As he bent down and came closer Midoriko closed her eyes and leaned up, meeting his lips halfway. They both have been waiting for this moment for ages and to finally do it felt great.
When their lips met they felt warmth spread through their bodies. Using the hand that wasn't hooked under her chin, Haku wrapped it around her waist and pulled her closer, letting her scent consume him. Midoriko's hands came up to his chest, almost as if to steady herself. Breaking apart after the chaste kiss they looked at each other. Knowing that they really couldn't be together, but they couldn't help it they were in love.
Almost as if they were magnets attracted to each other they came closer. When their lips were only a hair breaths away they heard. "Midoriko! Where are you! Lady Suki needs us for training!" The two pulled apart fast, blushes on their faces. Looking to where the voice was coming from Midoriko yelled, "I'm coming!" Midoriko turned back to Haku. "It…looks like I have to go…" she sadly said as she looked up at Haku. Gently grabbing her chin he made her look up. "I'll see you later ok?" he said softly, causing Midoriko to smile.
Leaning down once more he pressed a soft kiss to her lips before pulling back and letting go of her chin. "Now go before Minako gets suspicious." Midoriko nodded, but as she turned away she quickly turned back and hugged Haku tightly. "I love you." She whispered, hugging her back Haku whispered. "I love you too."
Running off Midoriko found Minako only minutes later. "Where have you been? I've been looking for you everywhere!" Smiling as they started to walk towards the village Midoriko said, "I was just taking a walk through the woods and lost track of time, I'm sorry." Minako stopped and turned to look at her best friend, "Why are you so happy? I've never seen you this happy." Midoriko quickly thought of something.
"When I was walking through the woods I saw some baby blue birds on the ground, I helped them back into their nest. I'm just glad I could help." Minako nodded, not really believing her. Midoriko went into the forest so much now, and Minako just wanted to find out why.
As Kagome's eyes unglazed she gasped. "Midoriko was in love with Haku!" Quickly looking to make sure she didn't wake up Shippo Kagome sunk her hands into her hair as she groaned. These visions were so helpful but so confusing at the same time. Standing up Kagome knew what to do. Whenever she was confused she danced. Walking into her closest Kagome quickly and quietly changed into yoga pants and a plain white shirt.
Grabbing her ipod she quietly left the room and went upstairs to the dance floor. Once she was upstairs she plugged up her ipod and turned it on shuffle. Grabbing her jazz shoes she quickly put them on before going to the middle of the floor and stretching.
After she stretched she got up and practiced her leaps and turns. Taking a breath she thought. "Midoriko and Haku….no one knew about it because it was forbidden…" Suddenly "Dance For You." By Beyonce Kagome snorted, "So fitting." She muttered as she started to improve to the music, letting her body move with the beats. Grabbing a chair she began to dance with it, just forgetting about her shocking news while she let herself fall under the spell of dancing. So much she didn't notice the aura walking up there.
Inuyasha had just been trying to fall asleep when he heard someone moving around the house. When he smelled Kagome's scent he just smelled and listened. When he heard music and smelled her sweat he knew she was dancing and decided to go watch her. When he walked into the room she was dancing on a chair, turning the poor boy on. He was hypnotized from the minute he saw her. Her dancing was beautiful, the way she let herself just move with the music, almost as if they were one thing.
When the song ended Kagome stayed in her seductive pose for a second longer before collapsing against the chair and taking deep breaths. As she sat there she finally felt the calming aura of her boyfriend. Wiping her sweaty bangs away from her face Kagome looked at Inuyasha and said, "What are you doing up so late?" Inuyasha chuckled as he leaned against the wall. "1 O'clock? Babies sleep at this time." He said with a smirk.
When Kagome rolled her eyes he laughed and said, "I was trying to go to sleep when I heard the music up here so I decided to come see what my little fiery kitten was doing up her." He dropped his voice seductively at the end of the sentence, trying not to smirk at the spike in Kagome's arousal. Seeing the slight smirk on his face, Kagome stood up and walked over to Inuyasha; running a hand through her sweaty hair and swinging her hips a little more then normal.
Seeing his golden orbs lock on her hips Kagome smirked as she stopped in front of him. Running a finger down his chest she stood up on her tip toes and leaned into him so she could whisper in his ear, not to mention press her breast against his chest. Once her mouth was next to his ear she whispered in a throaty voice. "I thought dogs and cats didn't get along."
Coming down Kagome saw Inuyasha's eyes dilate before he grabbed her face and attacked her lips with his, a possessive growl rumbling his chest as he did so. Kagome couldn't help the smirk on her face as she gladly kissed him back. Smelling Kagome's arousal spike even more Inuyasha almost lost it. He started to run his hands up and down her small body. Sneaking his hands under her shirt he lifted her up and pressed her against the wall, letting her wrap her legs around his waist.
Inuyasha wanted to show her how he felt, wanted to show her how much she affected him. Detaching himself from her lips he began to attack her neck, feeling a sense of accomplishment when he heard the moans leaving that beautiful mouth of hers. She ran her hands up and down his chest, feeling the soft stone like skin before running her hands back up and threading them through his silver hair.
"Inu…yasha…" she moaned as he nipped at the junction between her shoulder and neck, causing another growl to escape his throat. "This dog likes cats." He growled as he stopped his assault on her neck and went back to her lips. Kagome's arousal spiked once again, the sentence turning her on to no end. Not able to help himself Inuyasha grounded his hips into her, causing a surprised but pleasured moan to escape Kagome's lips.
"Inuyasha." She said breathily as Inuyasha ran his hands under her shirt and pulled it off of her, leaving her in her sports bra. He continued to run his hands up and down her sides; he even ran his hands over her bra and squeezed her breast. Gasping Kagome let her head fall back against the wall as she pressed her chest into Inuyasha's large hands. Seeing her in such a submissive pose, her neck bared for him Inuyasha instantly attacked her neck, grinding his hips into her as he did so.
Kagome was in a state of euphoria, not knowing what to do at Inuyasha had his way with her. She felt his arousal pushing against her thigh as he ground into her, and even a couple times he grinded it right into her core, causing the miko to gasp as pleasure shot through her body. "Inu…yasha…don't…stop." Kagome got out between gasps as Inuyasha continued his assault.
Inuyasha loved the feeling of Kagome in his arms, she was perfect, every part of her. He continued to attack her neck as his hands pleasured her breast and he grinded into her, loving the sound of her gasps and moans as her arousal skyrocketed. Knowing that he needed to stop soon before he just couldn't he gave a couple more squeezes to her boobs before grabbing a hold of her hips. Continuing to attack her neck Inuyasha ground his hips into hers, making sure to hit her core with his arousal a couple more times before stopping.
Grinding into her one last time, nice and slow Inuyasha left his assault on her neck and kissed her lips soundly. Her body buzzing from that wonderful assault Kagome just tried to control her breathing as Inuyasha kissed her on the lips and rested his head on her chest. Still breathing hard Kagome said the only thing she could say. "Wow."
The little word reached Inuyasha's ears, causing him to chuckle as he put her down. Once she was steady on her feet Kagome cupped Inuyasha's face, looking up at him lovingly before leaning up and placing a soft kiss on his lips. Pulling back she kept her hand on is cheek as she whispered; "Midoriko was in love with her best friend….your ancestor." Kagome smiled, thinking about what Inutaisho told her all those months ago, that she was Inuyasha's mate. "I think its destiny." Was all she said, but Inuyasha knew the rest, he knew she was saying it was destiny for them to be together.
Inutaisho walked up next to Dominic, "I've been asking all my contacts, but they haven't figured out how Naraku came back. But my people are on it, we will find out who's behind this." Dominic nodded, he had suspicions and if he was right he didn't know what to do. Hearing Izayoi giggle the men looked over to see her looking down. Walking over to her they looked down to see Inuyasha and Kagome looking at each other lovingly. Feeling the men's presence's Izayoi whispered. "He's close Inutaisho; he's so close to figuring out Kagome's his mate." Inutaisho and Dominic smiled; all three adults were overjoyed by this fact that they forgot about the horrible test that Kagome would have to go through to prove her love for Inuyasha.
