The rumbling didn't cease, it continued, louder and louder. My heart beat began to pick up, and my miko flared. "Turn it off…" He warned, and I knew he meant the blue light that surrounded me. He had to be kidding, as if I had any control over it these days. It always turned on and off when it pleased. It was as if two years of training did nothing. "Kagome…" He continued when the light didn't die down. Actually the rumbling continued, and it began to shine brighter. I walked deeper into the cavern taking deep breaths.

He stopped me while I began to pass him. "Don't move…" He said. His face stayed on the other direction. The rumbles began to sound more and more like walking feet. I tried to calm myself, but there was no way I could be captured by Naraku… Conner… whatever his name was. "Please…" He pleaded, "Turn it down…"

"I'm trying it's not as simple as it seems." I hissed, "And you're not making it any better."

"Sssh… don't talk till they leave." He had a finger on his lips, and I couldn't help the annoyance that came over me.

"Oh, so I suppose its fine if you talk, but when I do…" before I could finish my sentence, his hand made their way over my mouth. I was taken aback by this gesture, but as soon as he did it my miko shut off. The cave was now an eerie black. The only thing that could be heard was the thumping water hitting the stream, and the whistling of wind. I thought they had left, but the footsteps began again. My heart began to beat over time, but his presence beside me made it hard for my miko to react.

I felt his arm wrap around my waist. I thought he'd lead me somewhere, but I was shocked when I felt him lift me up. He held me bridal style with such ease I was surprised. "Don't talk please…" He whispered, and I nodded feeling a bit uneasy in his arms all of a sudden. He was walking very quietly deeper into the cave. "Do me a favor…" He began, "give me a little light… just a little." I sighed 'what the hell' I thought. 'I'm not an adjustable light switch.'

I sighed about to say something, "I'll see what I can…" He stopped me with an annoying 'sssh…' why was it alright for him to talk, but taboo for me. I put a hand out, and tried to light it up, I concentrated, but it was hard. I waited for a couple of moments, then without warning my wrist was immersed in light. "Happy...?" I asked, and I looked up. I could see his face a bit now, but not as much as I wanted.

"Yeah… just lower it a tad bit." I bit my lip. I didn't know how to adjust it. I tried, but I couldn't. I waited for a second and the light began to fade by itself. "Good…" He said, and I looked up at him agravated.

"You know I can walk by myself." I said sticking a loan eyebrow up. He shook his head as if what I was saying was forbidden, and the worst idea in the world. "My left foot doesn't hurt all that bad…."

"Sssh… listen I'm not trying to hurt your feelings." He began and I waited for him to continue. "But you're a bit of a klutz… It's cute, but you are. So I rather just carry you… shine your light towards the right." I crossed my arms and looked away from him. My miko shut down automatically, and I knew he'd be mad at that. But I was so not a klutz, I just happened to lack a bit of grace. "Kagome…" he begged, but I ignored him."This isn't the time for this, there above us…." He began, "Kagome…."

"Sssh…" I hissed, and his words ended. "You shouldn't be talking they'll hear us." I pointed a lone wrist out making the light shine out again. I was tired of this stupid 'I can talk but you can't' game. He didn't counter this, instead he continued walking, the rushing of the waterfall became louder, and louder, till we approached it.

He didn't say anything, but I was a bit confused to why we were going towards a waterfall. I was about to voice this, when he set me down gently. "You've been working out?" He asked, and I was a bit confused by his question. "You're heavier…" He said, and I was stunned out of words to say. Yeah Kaede had me on a strict exercise regimen in Florida, but it wasn't anything I thought anyone would notice. Apparently I had needed to gain muscle to be a model, which was ironic seeing as I never wanted to become one in the first place.

"Yeah… just a little" I whispered, he didn't add on to this. He sat down on the flooding cavern floor making his jeans wetter than before. I stared at him not knowing what to make by this. It was freezing down here; there was no way I was getting on the floor. Soon we'd freeze to death if we didn't make a fire or some shit. I saw this in discovery channel, desert nights can be below freezing. The cave for some reason countered this a little bit, but soon it would be unbearably cold.

"Get down here…" He said, and I narrowed my eyes. I didn't want to sit on the flooding ground. "It won't be long till they realize we're down here." He said, and I raised my eyebrows. I knew this, but it sounded as If he was giving up. "When they do, we have to dive down," He was implying the stream. He wanted us to dive into the water so are scent would be erased by the water fall and the pounding rain.

"It's really cold" Is all I mumbled.

"Not near me…" He said and I rolled my eyes. That was one hell of a lie. I would think sitting in water near him would still be cold, If not colder then standing up and being dry. He watched me for a second while I thought it over. "You're a miko; you'll keep us warm…" He said, and I smiled. I was a miko, but not a good one; the blue energy defiantly had a mind of its own.

I sighed plowing down beside him. The water was exceedingly cold, and I felt my heart stop before everything began heating up. He was right. I was going to keep us warm. The blue itself didn't show, but the water began to becoming heated. I felt him push me close. I didn't say anything my feet automatically reaching into the stream. "When do you think they'll reach us..?" I asked he didn't say anything at first, but I knew he was just thinking.

"At any moment…" He said, and I had no idea what he meant by that. The footsteps had stopped. I hoped he was wrong.

"Well how will we know if there behind us… you know without you're…?" My voice trailed off, he knew what I was trying to say. I realized him being a human was a touchy subject, which had me thinking. "Oh, that reminds me." I began remembering about the misunderstanding we had earlier. "I didn't mean I liked you better as a human… I meant I could get use to you as one…. You know for one night, it wouldn't be something I loved…."

"Yeah I got it…." He said stopping my banter; he squeezed my waist causing me to come closer to him. The room was dark despite my use of miko. It was as if it was working harder to heat up around us then heat me up exactly. We both didn't say anything, and I felt myself become very tired, I was beginning to close my eyes. "So…" He said causing me to wake up. I could feel the echoing of his chest. "How was Florida for two years…? I never asked." He said, and I sat up away from him. There was defiantly a double meaning to that.

"Are you implying something?" I asked, and I could see his facial expression shallowly, my miko was reflecting it from the water of the stream below us. He slid closer to me, and I could see his face perfectly.

"No not at all." I took that into consideration. I nodded, and I laid my head on his shoulder. "It's just that, you know you're a model… you've been working out, you have no problems in landing a role… how was Florida relationship wise." I lifted my head and eyed him.

"Well let's see…" I said, and the water began to heat up even more, the room we were in began to light up. I was a tad bit annoyed. "When you came I was a virgin…. I think we both know that, so what do you think?"

"I don't understand why you're being so uptight about this. I'm just asking…." He said, and I shrugged.

"It's called reading between the lines." I said, and he began to say something, when the thumping began again. This time it was closer than ever. He swallowed his sentence and looked up. The thumping became tapping then all of a sudden I could make out footsteps. I didn't say anything I was a bit frozen when I felt him all but push me.

I fell into the water abruptly. I lifted my head up pushing my damp hair out of my face. "Ass hole…" I said, and he put a finger to his lips telling me to shut up.

"Sorry…" He whispered quickly. "You had that look on your face… you know the one you get when you're kind of shocked in place, I had to act quickly." He then after saying that slipped himself into the water as well. He was near me, and I realized the water was very much deeper then it was previously when I had fallen in before. "When I say 'go', put your head under the water and swim without thrashing towards the waterfall." I nodded not wanting to argue with him. He only watched me for awhile before dipping low.

The cave began to get dark again, my miko had stopped, and the water became insufferably cold. I heated myself up automatically, and searched around the cave. No one was moving towards us. Maybe we were being a tad bit over dramatic. I was about to jump out, I didn't feel like staying much longer in an over flowing stream. I was about to step out when someone grabbed me. "What are you doing…?" He whispered his hair was damp on his face, and he seemed flushed. He looked breath takingly gorgeous.

"I'm so sure no one's coming…." I said, "my hands are turning into prunes, and I'm freezing." He didn't say anything, he just pushed me back causing me to fall into the water again, into his arms.

"I'm not sure but they're here…" He said, "I need you to shut off your miko." Oh he had to be kidding me, it was freezing. I wasn't doing that.

All of a sudden echoes were heard. They shook the cavern. First it seemed like someone was shouting orders, and the other echoes were the sound of steady feet. They were far away, maybe at the first entrance. The spot I had fell down through, but it wasn't going to be long till they spotted my shoes and kept going west. I looked towards Inuyasha and he was staring towards the left. "I can't hear or smell anything…" He said, and I raised my eyebrows. "What time is it?" I knew he was asking, wanting to know how much longer he'd have to stay human. I reached into my pocket grabbing his phone, which was wet, and probably broken beyond repair. "Kagome…." He said, and his voice rose over a whisper.

"Sorry…. I forgot it was in my pocket…" I said, he had a stern look on his face, but as he looked up at me, his face began to smooth over.

"It's fine… just get down here." He took the phone out of my hand, and turned towards the other end of the cave. He took a deep elongated breath before throwing it. The phone went flying hitting something too far for an average human to see. I heard the crash echo, and that caused the tapping of feet to set off, and a fuzzy command to be heard from far away. I turned to look at him but he seemed very pleased. "Go…" He said, and I stuck an eyebrow up not knowing what that meant. "Hold your breath get underwater then swim towards the waterfall… remember?" He said and I crossed my eyebrows, that was his plan.

I moved away from him holding my breath and diving into the icy cold water. I had to hold the impulse to heat up. Instead I began to kick gently getting towards a pit of rushing hard water. I knew this was the water fall; it wouldn't be too harsh of an impact to break bones, but it would be harsh enough to hurt when I swam through the pounding water. I closed my eyes getting very close. I could feel the burn hit my backside, but I continued through it. I was running out of air when I realized the other end of the waterfall was some sort of hollowed out path.

I stepped out of the water walking forward. I hugged my waist, it was beyond cold. I still fought with myself, I couldn't heat up. "Deeper…" A puffing voice said from behind me. I turned to see Inuyasha. He was damp and panting. He began taking off his shirt. "Take off your clothes." He instructed, and I didn't understand why, but he seemed very serious, so I began taking off my sweatshirt. He had a hold of his breathing. "Walk deeper in…" He said, and as I pulled off my damp sweater I couldn't help the mist that came over me. I was nice and warm. Inuyasha didn't say anything to this. I turned to see him, but he was right behind me. The path was unnaturally deep and becoming more and more narrow as we walked deeper and deeper.

I could see everything around us, as I walked deeper to the end. A hand on my shoulder stopped me. "Here's good…" He said, and I didn't say anything I just stopped. He was unbuckling his pants and I watched. "It's too cold to have your clothes on." He said looking at me, "There wet…" He shrugged off his pants and dropped them to the side.

"Well wouldn't it be colder to take your clothes off?" I asked watching his well developed physic move. He was taking off his clothes in such a hurry I didn't know what to make of the situation. He walked towards me, and I froze. He was so gorgeous. I was wondering if he was aware of this. My sweat shirt was in my right hand, he slowly grabbed it pushing it on the ground.

His hands went to my pants and he began unbuckling it. "I can take them off myself." I said, but I couldn't help the smile framing my face. "So I take it we out ran them?" I asked, he just shrugged, and I backed up pulling the pants off completely. "You think the waters going to flood this part?" I asked trying to distract him. He seemed so intent on staring at me, and it was becoming very disturbing. I pulled my jeans off and tossed them to the side, now I only had on my bra and underwear. He walked towards me making my breath hitch.

He wrapped his arms around my waist, and I felt his dampness. "Uh… you're so fucking warm…" He whispered, and it was all just a bit awkward but I didn't voice it.

"Thanks… I guess" I mumbled, his body was pressed up against mine, and I felt him back up. I was against the wall him on top of me. I could feel his hard on my leg. It caused my stomach to begin churning. I didn't say anything, and I began to realize he was hugging me for warmth. It made sense, but even though it was freezing it began to get a bit too hot between us. I could feel sweat running down my chest.

All of a sudden he began backing up. He seemed disoriented. I stared at him but I didn't say anything. I watched his body before sliding down the rocks. "Hey…" He began, and I just sat flatly. I was wondering if at some point I'd run out of energy and my miko would just shut off. It hadn't happen yet, but what if it did? Would we freeze? "Let's have sex…" He said, and my eyes began opening wide. He was so blunt I didn't know what to make of it.

"I…I don't really think that's a good idea," I began. logically it wasn't, but as I watched his perfect physic it began to make sense. We had time to kill right?

"I think it's a great idea…" He said he had the biggest smile framing perfect face. I didn't say anything as he came closer. I put both of my feet flat against the ground, feeling the pain on my left. He didn't notice though.

"Oh Shit" I remembered all of a sudden "….I forgot my shoes." He looked towards the side. There was no way we could get them back, but I remembered them being near the running stream. I took them off when I fell from the pain. I looked down at my left foot.

He met my eyes too. "What exactly happened?" He asked and I didn't really want to tell him now; although he seemed very intent on knowing. I shrugged thinking we actually should have sex. "He bent over, looking at my foot. I felt him lift it, and I closed my eyes at the shooting pain. "It's swollen a bit, looks like you sprained it." He said, and I watched him.

"No big deal…" I said. I didn't know what to make from this, but I didn't add anything on. "So… sex huh…" I said, and he looked up at that. I watched as the corner of his lips rose in amusement.

"Your funny…" He said. I smiled I never considered myself as funny. I had no plans of being a comedian, and even now as I stared up at him. I didn't understand why I could be considered humorous. He walked over near me plumping down beside my damp body. "Looks like I'll be up all night."

"Why?" I asked curious to know. He shrugged as if it were no big deal, I waited but he didn't add anything on. Instead he lifted me placing me on his lap.

"Someone has to make sure they don't spot us, but you should probably sleep." He said, but I didn't see that happening. I couldn't rest not with his bare body below me. I could feel his chest on my back. I was really starting to think sex was the only option. He didn't say anything and i stared at the wall infront of us. It didn't take long before i began dozing off…
