things are gonna be explained, and things are gonna start to get romantic
^_^
Ch 9- Inu Yasha's apartment, and a drunk driver...
Kagome glanced at her watch. It was nearing 10 o'clock. 'I cant believe it' she thought 'I've gone on a date, almost got raped, had my friend get in a car crash, and got taken to Sesshoumaru's all in 2 hours..' Things had progressed quickly that night.
Kagome turned another corner, heading towards Inu Yasha's apartment building. She and Sango had followed him home the day after he asked her out... Sango had thought it would be a good idea.
She had finally made it. Kagome looked up at the brick building, and then headed towards the front doors. At the front desk, she learned which floor and apartment Inu Yasha lived in. F4. Kagome took the elevator 6 floors up, and then got off. She cursed at her bad luck; the first door she saw was F30. She walked down the hall until she finally found the door she was looking for.
The doorbell rang inside the apartment. Kagome clutched the packet of pills in her pocket. She had to do this, for Sango (and Miroku's) safety.
Finally, he opened the door. "Kagome? What are you doing here? I thought you hated me. I thought..." Kagome cut him off with a kiss. Inu Yasha stood in shock. This had NOT been what he was expecting.
'What the HELL am I doing?' Kagome asked herself. Well, she had to get him to shut up somehow. And she also figured that this would be a good way to let him... think he could trust her. She finally broke the kiss, and blushed deeply. "May I come in?"
Inu Yasha couldn't answer, he just stepped aside, and let the girl enter. They sat on the couch for a while. "Umm, would you like a drink?" Inu Yasha asked. Kagome shook her head yes, and Inu Yasha went to get her the drink. To Kagome's dismay, he came back with one for himself too.
"I'm sorry Inu Yasha. You saved me twice, but I was too stupid and stubborn to thank you."
"Thank me? Was that kiss your way of thanking me?"
Kagome blushed a deep shade of red. "No that was just... because I wanted to kiss you. Inu Yasha, I want to know about your life."
Inu Yasha was slightly taken aback by her request, but told her about his life anyway. Finally he reached the part about his father dieing and leaving him an inheritance. That's when Kagome interrupted.
"Inheritance?" She asked curiously.
"A sword. A powerful sword." Inu Yasha took a sip of his coffee.
"Oh wow! A sword! Can I see it?" She asked, eyes wide.
Inu Yasha hesitated. He had never shown anyone but Miroku the sword. He had only known this girl for a week, but he felt compelled to show her the sword. The hanyou got up, went to one of the walls, and punched it. A secret door popped open (accompanied by an 'ooh!' from Kagome) Inside was a rusty looking sword. "That's it?" Kagome asked.
"Well, it changes when it is used to protect a human." He brought the weapon over for her to look at, unknowing that while he had been opening the door, Kagome had slipped two pills into his coffee.
She looked the sword over for a while, and decided that the thing probably couldn't cut a piece of a fruit. She looked up just in time to see Inu Yasha raise the cup to his lips. Time seemed to stop. Kagome's heart and mind battled. Her heart wanted her to stop Inu Yasha and save him, but her mind screamed at her to think of Sango and Miroku.
"STOP!" She yelled, and knocked the cup out of his hands, just in case he didn't stop.
"AH! What was that for?" He asked, looking at the spilled coffee on the floor. That's when he saw the two, almost dissolved pills. "What the hell are these?" He looked at Kagome; she was crying. "Wha... what? DON'T CRY!"
"Oh Inu Yasha!" She jumped off the couch, and landed in his arms. "I'm so sorry!"
Inu Yasha didn't know what to do. There he was, sitting with a girl who was crying into his shirt. He hesitantly put his arms around her, and whispered "its ok."
"I cant believe I listened to your stupid brother!"
"What? Sesshoumaru?"
Kagome proceeded to tell him what happened, crying the whole time. "And... I don't know what the pills would do, but I didn't want to hurt you! I'm so sorry! Please forgive me! I didn't mean to..." It was Inu Yasha's turn to silence her. He tilted her head up, and looked into her eyes for a moment. Then he bent his head down and pressed his mouth gently to hers. Kagome was so surprised that she stopped crying immediately.
"We'll stop my brother from hurting Sango and Miroku," Inu Yasha said once the kiss was over.
Kagome couldn't answer. She was out of breath. When she could finally talk again, she asked "Well what are we going to do? I cant give him the sword... its yours... and I don't want Sango and Miroku hurt..."
Inu Yasha told her his plan. She would go to Sesshoumaru's at 11:30, to give him the sword. Kagome looked down at her watch for the 2nd time that night. It was just turning 11 now. They had a half an hour. Kagome was about to ask what they should do until it was time, but Inu Yasha answered that question before she even asked. He kissed her forehead, then her eyelids, and the tip of her nose. Finally he found her lips again, and kissed them too.
'I guess this is what we're going to do' Kagome thought happily. She wanted this moment to last forever.

Hojo stumbled drunkenly into Sesshoumaru's office.
"And where have YOU been?" Sesshoumaru asked coldly. Hojo giggled and told him.
"Well first I went to a bar, and got really drunk," he giggled again, thinking this was the funniest thing in the world, "then I picked up Kagome, but some idiot with dog ears took her away from me, and then I was just driving around and I hit some stupid car. Oh well, they were knocked out when I drove away."
"Idiot." Sesshoumaru said, looking back down at his paperwork. "But I'm glad you did run into that car. It gave me some blackmail over a certain girl. By midnight I should have the Tetsusaiga."
Hojo congratulated his employer, took out another beer, and started to gulp it down. 'Will he never learn?' Sesshoumaru thought as he watched Hojo in disgust.
