Chapter 14
A now totally red faced InuYasha set quietly on the floor opposite the bed, he was staying very far away from his attacker. 'Damn wench, I can't believe she blames me for her hand grabbing me.' InuYasha thought, while holding an ice pack on his extra red cheek. 'And did she have to slap me so damn hard. I was only looking her and now she thinks I'm the one who literally moved her hand to my crotch. Maybe I should just let Kouga have her, after all she doesn't have a hard time kicking my ass.' His thoughts died when he heard her sigh. The yelling match from earlier was enough to let everyone in two miles know where they were now. Even the hotel manager asked if the cops were needed. Yep Kagome was one spunky girl and in someways her liked that, though she could have skipped the screaming match. His poor ears were still ringing.
*Flashback to the fight*
"INUYASHA YOU FREAKIN WEIRDO, GET THE HELL AWAY FROM ME!" Kagome yelled at the top of her lungs, followed by a loud SMACK! She grabbed the covers trying to hide her red face, though it was to late. "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WOULD ACTUALLY DO THAT SAME TRICK AGAIN? WHAT, IT WASN'T ENOUGH BACK WITH THE DILDO AT MY OLD APARTMENT, YOU NEEDED TO PUT MY HAND ON YOUR FREAKIN DICK AGAIN?"
Just coming back from what all just happened, InuYasha cupped his slapped cheek and started to growl. Never before had he felt so angry and so attracted to a woman at the same time, like with this one. "DAMMIT WENCH, I DIDN'T DO A DAMN THING WRONG! LIKE I'D DO SOMETHING LIKE THAT. AND BESIDES YOU WOULDN'T PLEASE MY DICK THE WAY I LIKE IT ANYWAY, SO WHY WOULD I WANT YOU EVEN CLOSE TO IT?"
As the two continued to yell back and forth, a knock came to the door. "Hey what's the problem in there, you two better keep it down before I call the cops!" The manager said, then walked away. "Damn teenagers and their fighting."
*End Flashback*
InuYasha really hated how all this was going, all he wanted to do was protect Kagome from being hurt. Now he ended up in a bigger mess along with a big ass sword all because of some guy who says he's his half brother. He never once knew he had a brother of any kind, but either way the Sesshomaru bastard wasn't getting crap from him.
Picking up the said sword, he sighed heavily. He was at a complete loss, and to make matters worse the damn sword smith didn't help one bit. 'Keh, a lot of good it did talking to that old jerk. All he said was it was a sword that will protect. What the hell was he supposed to protect, surely not the damn wench who just slapped and yelled at him. I'll be damned if I'll protect her, that's the last human I'll help after today.' He thought, as he made himself angrier. Even though just a few seconds ago he remembered saying protecting her was all he wanted to. His thoughts were interrupted by the phone ringing, followed by Kagome talking.
It was a good thing he wasn't human, otherwise he wouldn't have heard the conversation. "I'm glad you made it home safe Sango, and no one saw you right? Good okay well hopefully I can return to work next week. Yes please tell Ms. Rin, I'm very sorry about all this. I'll work extra to make up for the time I'm taking off. Okay well stay in touch Sango and be careful out there." After saying her good bye, Kagome hung up and sighed. She hated all of this and even now she was still so angry at InuYasha. She knew it was an accident, but that still didn't help the fact that he was so close to her. 'I should be a little nicer to him, sure he's gross at times and seems to only think about me touching his dick. He did save my life though and we didn't even know each other that long.' After her thoughts left she went out to talk with him.
Coming into the room she saw him sitting, his back against the wall and head down almost as if he was sleeping. She said nothing and continued to the window to look out. Kagome felt like a prisoner, she had no way to leave if so Kouga would surely attack. Taking a deep breath she tried to let InuYasha know how she felt about all this. "Look I'm sorry for earlier, I never should've acted that way. I am very grateful for you saving me, you risked your life for me someone you don't even know." A tear started to fall, followed by a few sniffs. Glancing up from where he sat, InuYasha tried to figure out what this woman was up too. "I'll understand if you don't want to help me anymore."
Now he was really confused. 'Damn, one minute she's screaming at me and the next she's sorry and telling me to not help her? Women sure are a lot of trouble around here, or maybe it's just this crazy wench?' He decided maybe he should give her another chance, but first he'd figure out just why the hell his body was reacting so weird around her. 'It has to be something that goes along with the sword, I didn't have these desires the time we were together in her apartment. And the time in her apartment when his clawed hand placed her's on his crotch, he felt nothing. Now though it was different, just the sight of her in certain ways had him just staring at her. "Look Kagome, I'm sorry for what happened. Something is happening to me, and it started when this damn sword showed up." He clinched his fists together, showing just how frustrated he was. "That damn bastard Sesshomaru, I swear the next time I see him he's dead!"
Hearing the low growl in his voice, made Kagome turn to face InuYasha. Seeing his fists tight, and the not knowing what to next look on his face. Made Kagome think maybe she was all wrong about him. 'He seems so upset about all this, but not the Kouga part. He's angry with himself, meaning what happened earlier wasn't something he did on purpose.' Moving away from the window, she went and stood in front of him then spoke. "InuYasha I think you need to figure out what's happening to you, it's not safe for you or me if you're not well. There has to be someone who can tell you wants happening?"
A bit surprised by her sudden change in heart, InuYasha glanced at her with a confused look before standing. "Kagome, I don't deserve to be forgiven. Not till this whole mess is fixed and I know why I'm acting like a dog in heat around you." Placeing a clawed hand on her shoulder he simply said. "Thank you for trusting me." Before heading to the door. "Be safe till I return."
She gave him a smile and a small wave. "I will and the same to you, InuYasha." With that said he was off to find more answers and be back till night fall. Only problem was, someone had heard of the news and came to see for sure if it was indeed Kagome and InuYasha fighting.
"Looks like I found what I was looking for. To bad she's all alone now, time to finish this you disgusting woman." Waiting for till InuYasha was well out of range the enemy made it's move. And with little concealment knocked on the very door where Kagome was.
"Who is it? Kagome asked before opening the door. It was a woman's voice, she spoke very nicely and asked if Kagome needed anything. Of course she mentioned she was two rooms down. So not thinking of it being an issue Kagome opened the door. The sight however caused her to freeze when she saw who it was. "K-Kikyo?!"
