The Arctic Wolf- Nova
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha!
A/N: Hey guys! I just got my report card today! I got a C! GAH! I need to focus more on my work, and not my stories. Here's the plan: I study for my exams (which are next WEEK!), BUT I FINISH Isolated AND Signs In Ink BEFORE May 20th. So, when the exams are over, and school. June 5th, I'll be typing up my new story "Future Scar" June 5th. So no new stories until June 5th. Sorry! But I HAVE to focus…so enjoy the rest of the two stories. I'll be super busy this weekend, when I say busy I mean Isolated and Signs In Ink busy. I'll update like tens times a day. I'll be done by then though, maybe even I'll put up one chapter of Future Scar. So Sorry!!
And OH! OH! I SO have a new quote I say like EVERY 45 seconds. It's, "Inuyasha A Wicked Man!"
I totally like LOVE saying that! When I say man, I mean him as a man, AND man as in (example: "Jane go clean your room!" …… "Mannnnnnn!")
Get it, get it? Huh? Huh? Inuyasha a wicked man!
Title: Isolated
Chapter Thirty-Nine: Your Drastic Measure
--
Inuyasha had slept on the couch that night; Kagome cried herself to sleep. Rin-assumedly-was the first to wake. She went downstairs and into the kitchen. She fixed herself a pop-tart, and a cup of orange juice.
She jumped when she saw Sesshomaru leaning against the backdoor. Rin paled, as always when she caught him staring.
"Why are you paling?" he asked in his normal cool voice.
Rin looked behind her, "You're talking to me?"
He just looked at her. The bruises she had gotten a month ago had left bruises. Rin had been feel sort of sick lately, she didn't feel like screaming at something stupid he had to say.
Something familiar flickered in his eyes. She walked up to him and waited. He took her hand, and ran his thumb over her wrist. Rin asked,
"If you have something stupid to say; don't waste your breath."
"I have nothing harmful to say." he replied, examining her wrist; as if trying to be certain of something.
She asked, "What is it then? Is something wrong?"
He didn't reply. Rin asked,
"Is something wrong with-
"No." he interrupted; trying to calm her.
She replied, "Oh."
The room fell quiet. Rin watched Sesshomaru. His thumb ran over her wrist. She asked,
"What are you doing?"
Sesshomaru let go of her hand and stared into her eyes. He actually had some feeling in them now. It was annoyance though. She took a step back,
"Sesshomaru…you hate me don't you?"
"Don't say such foolish things." he replied.
Rin asked, "Then why haven't you said anything to me."
She didn't want to anger Sesshomaru anymore. All Rin wanted was for Sesshomaru to love her. Every night, she cried. For the past few months, she'd felt like crap. How long does it take for a add to last?
Rin felt warmth cover her. She realized she was now in Sesshomaru's arms. He whispered something into her ear and Rin smiled. She snuggled her head into his chest.
A groggy voice came,
"Would you two get a room or something."
"Don't be jealous Inuyasha." teased Rin, pulling away from Sesshomaru.
He snorted, "Why would I be jealous?"
"Oh I don't know," shrugged Rin, looking down at her nails, "you and Kagome were arguing last night; I'm guessing you two aren't a very happy couple right now."
Inuyasha gave Rin a deadly glare. She laughed,
"I'm going to get dressed."
Rin skipped up the stairs after smiling back at Sesshomaru. Inuyasha looked at Sesshomaru's intrigued face. He asked,
"Having some trouble understanding Kagome, little brother?"
"Go to hell." spat Inuyasha, about to leave the kitchen.
Sesshomaru spoke, "Rin's three month pregnant. This little war needs to come to a end."
"You're serious?" asked Inuyasha, searching his brother's face.
Sesshomaru nodded coolly. Inuyasha shook his head,
"Soon as Naraku finds out about…."
"He probably already has." replied Sesshomaru.
Inuyasha frowned, "What do you mean?"
"Kagome's cell phone developed a hearing device through Kikyo's email. The way Rin has been acting, it's obvious." informed Sesshomaru.
Inuyasha shook his head, "Just great."
"The medication." he asked; already knowing something was wrong.
Inuyasha explained about the meds and Estrella. Sesshomaru stared blankly. He soon spoke,
"Naraku is getting past the barrier left and right….We can't have Kagome have Kagome having another break down."
"Let her…I could care less." grumbled Inuyasha, rubbing the red from his eyes.
Sesshomaru smirked, "You're weaker than I thought….You'd actually get upset over a lie?"
"She's put us, the kids, and 'Rin' in danger! Think about it, and tell me if I'm weak now." he hissed.
Sesshomaru frowned and retorted, "If you'd pay more attention to her-instead of being afraid that if you touch her you'd get her pregnant-you'd know she was doing something behind your back. Think about it."
When he got no response, he went upstairs. Inuyasha growled-hating when Sesshomaru was right. He went up to the room, and stared at the thin figure under the covers. Inuyasha knelt beside the bed, and pulled the covers from her face. Her hair was spilt all over the pillow.
He let out a grunt at her pale face, bags under her eyes. Inuyasha stood and walked over to the window. He yanked back the curtains, and let the bright sun flood into the room. A black Honda sped done the road. Inuyasha saw a manicured finger on the steering wheel.
Inuyasha glared at the car, then turned around when he heard a irritated squeak. Kagome opened her eyes and peeked at the window,
"What the hell are you doing?"
She obviously didn't know who she was talking too. It was also obvious that she was bad-tempered today. Inuyasha pushed back the hurt and anger, he had to stop acting like a twelve year old, and act like he loved her. Kagome pulled the covers over her head.
Inuyasha walked over to her, and yanked them off. She growled, and curled up into a ball. Inuyasha grabbed her hand and pulled her up,
"Get up."
Kagome still had her eyes closed as she tried to fall back onto the bed,
"Knock it off…I want to sleep. That's what I'm going to have to do for the rest of my life…leave me alone."
He let go of her and she fell back onto the bed. Kagome grabbed the covers that was at the tip of the bed, and pulled it over her. Inuyasha glared then stalked out the room, and came back with a bowl of water.
She was nowhere in sight. The covers were gone. Inuyasha glared and thought,
"Seeing the future eh?"
He saw the bowl down and looked under the bed, and in the closet. Nowhere. Inuyasha went into the bathroom and there she was. In the tube. Inuyasha smirked and shook his head.
He turned the water on icy cold, and turned the shower on. Kagome shot up and screamed. Her eyes were blazing when they met Inuyasha's but when she noticed who she was looking at, the flickered. Kagome yelled,
"W.what are y.you doing! T.turn it o.off!"
"Turn it off yourself." he grunted, crossing his arms.
Kagome shivered as she reached for the handle. She slammed down on it, clumsily stood-trying her best not to fall- and went into the room. Rin was peeking into the room, and giggled,
"Just making sure he didn't kill you, bye."
Kagome got a towel from the dresser and covered herself in it. She sat on the bed, still shivering. Inuyasha leaned against the frame of the bathroom; watching her. She looked at him and sighed,
"If you're going to yell, get it over with. I'm awake."
"Why did you do it?" he asked after a long silence.
She looked away, looking at her pale hand, "I told you…I was trying to find a way for her to tell me her plan. I want all of this to be over. I'm sorry for betraying your trust.
"I know I made everything else worse. I know I endangered Kizu and the others. Including you. I know I hurt you…but I did care about everyone's safety. It's just after what happened to Kizu…I snapped. I wanted to rip Kikyo apart."
"Why didn't you come to me Kagome?" he asked, relaxing after really listening to her (instead of screaming that she was stupid.)
She blinked back the hot tears, "If anyone were to get hurt, I wanted it to be me. I caused the kids to get hurt. I'm causing all the problems."
"So you planned Kizu to be put in a coma? You planned to make Kouga take Caden away?" asked Inuyasha.
She sighed sadly, "No, but-
"Everyone has their fault in this Kagome. Not just you." interrupted Inuyasha.
She mumbled, "What do you mean everyone has their fault?"
"If your parents hadn't of moved here, none of this would have happened. If we hadn't of met…Kouga wouldn't have been eager to get on you. If we'd never fallen in love….Kikyo wouldn't have planned any revenge. If Kouga never gotten custody of Caden, none of this may have been happening. If you, Sango, and Rin hadn't did what you did…these events probably wouldn't have happened either. Get my drift?" explained Inuyasha.
Kagome nodded but then looked up at him, "You hate me?"
"No, I don't hate you Kagome…I love you a lot." he replied, looking back at her but hurt still in his eyes. "What pissed me off is why you didn't trust me…trust me to handle this."
She looked at his guilty, "I'm so sorry…I never wanted to hurt you Inuyasha. You probably won't ever trust me again. Will you?"
"I forgive you Kagome, but I'll only trust you if you trust me." smirked Inuyasha, feeling guilty-after remembering what Sesshomaru had said.
She cocked her head sideways, "Why that look?"
"What look?" he asked, poking his face.
Kagome stood and walked over to him-still soaked, "Why do you look guilty?"
"If I'd been paying more attention to you…none of this probably would have happened either. If I hadn't been afraid of Kikyo, none of this would of happened. Like Sesshomaru had tended to say…I guess I don't know you like a book." he answered, guilt clouding his eyes.
Kagome still looked confused, "We've known each other for years; what do you mean?"
"Even though you fooled me into thinking you didn't feel rejected, you still did." he replied.
Kagome's face saddened once she knew what he was saying. She looked down. He whispered,
"You think I don't want to touch you like Sesshomaru does to Rin or Miroku does to Sango…but I do. You think I don't want to kiss you like they do, but I do. I'm just afraid, that if I do, I'll lose something more precious…something more precious to us both."
"Inuyasha…" whispered Kagome, still looking down, "…I trust you. I mean it. I know you can protect me, and Kikyo's nothing but the same old Kikyo we knew in middle and high school. She's playing with our heads. I didn't expect you to fall for something like that."
Kagome felt depressed. Inuyasha would never fall for something like that, would he? I mean come on! Why would you listen to what that wench said! Kagome answered her own thoughts,
"He doesn't want to love you that way, Kagome, get a grip."
"Kagome, I don't reject you." whispered Inuyasha, making her look up.
She looked into his serious amber eyes, "I…."
"You doubt I love you?" he asked, knowing what he asked was a yes.
Kagome whispered, "Inuyasha…."
His hand slid from her chin, down her arm, and around her wrist. Kagome shivered, a blush forming on her face when he leaned down and trailed kisses from her forehead to her neck. Kagome whispered,
"Inuyasha-
"Sh," he cut her off, "I love you more than my own life Kagome, and you don't know how long I've waited to do this to you. Again." (A/N: Ohhhhhh…Inuyasha a wicked man!)
Kagome's face set flames. Her entire body warmed. Kagome no longer felt cold as he nibbled at her neck. His hand went back and locked the door. She sighed when he pulled away and captured her lips into a heated kiss. This kiss was amazing, so amazing that Kagome had rose on her tip-toes to get a great angle, her arms around his neck.
She hadn't realized that he had backed her up to the bed. Inuyasha pushed her back onto the bed and smirked. She looked up at him, panting. He went to the curtain and closed it. Inuyasha made his way over to her, captured her lips into another heated kiss, and got on top of her.
Kagome wasn't going to deny his love; if he didn't love her…she doubted he'd be seducing her right now.
Meanwhile In Rin and Sesshomaru's Room
Rin rested her head on Sesshomaru's chest while he looked at the ceiling. They were talking about whether she'd have another pair of twins-which Sesshomaru paled at-and names for boys and girls. He'd say things that would make her laugh and make her glare at him.
Something caught Sesshomaru's hearing and he got a disgusted look on his face. He muttered in a cool, yet pissed voice,
"That bastard…there's no way in hell-
"Sesshomaru!" gaped Rin, looking back at him. "Such colorful language for such a intelligent person."
He stood, pulling her up with him, "We're not staying in this damn house."
"But why-
Sesshomaru stormed over to the closet, covering his ears, "Here, hurry and put your shoes on. We're go anywhere you want…just not here."
"Can you please tell me why?" she asked, yanking on her flip-flops.
Sesshomaru walked out into the hall and simply pointed at Kagome/Inuyasha's room. Rin covered her mouth and started laughing. Sesshomaru grabbed her hand, ran down the stairs, and out the door. He forced the reddening Rin into the car, got into the drivers side and drove hauling ass out the driveway.
He nearly ran over a bunch of teens. Rin-by now- was gasping for oxygen. She laughed all the way to Miroku and Sango's place. Sesshomaru shook his head and mumbled so Rin-hopefully- couldn't hear him,
"Shit."
"HAHAHAHAHAHAAHA!" laughed Rin, picking that up with her neko hearing.
Please Review! Oh and Inuyasha a wicked man!
Lol! Hope you enjoyed!
