When I awoke that morning I smiled inside my mind as I saw Kagome laying close to me, her soft
slow breathing the only thing heard in the room. I went to pull my arm off of her, so when she
woke up she wouldn't freak out on me, but as I did so she grabbed my hand and kept my arm over herself.
I smiled and kept my arm over her and she rolledover her face mere inches from my own, I had to
resist the temptation of kissing her.
As Kagome slept in my arms my mind reverted back to when I was with Kikyo. Our nights together
had never been so nice as mine and Kagome's had been. When we were together it was rarely alone.
I still can't understand why she had to leave Japan, why she just had to go to America. But I've
let her go as she let go of me.
I looked at Kagome again and saw that she was starting to wake up. I quickly pulled my arms
off of her and rolled over, so my back was to her. I could just imagine her body, stretching out,
with her dark hair fanning about her body, some of it mixing with my own silver hair. Her dark eyes
slowly fluttering open, and her mouth, so beautiful and tempting, open in shock that I had actually
made sure she stayed.
I felt her arm brush against my back and heard her hiss in pain, I slowly looked over my shoulder
to see her cradling her arm against her chest. She looked up at me and slowly sat up. I sat up,
saying nothing to her, but got out of bed and went into the bathroom to get more gauze for her arms,
to change the bandaging. When I came out of the bathroom Kagome looked at me, and turned her head
away, and I remembered I wasn't wearing a shirt, and she had just seen me in nothing but a pair of
sweat pants.
"Hold out your arms." I told her, she did. "This might hurt a bit, I have to pull the bandaging
off the dried blood." As I pulled the gauze away gently she was wincing in pain. I gentled the
pull to a short tug, and got off the gauze, starting to replace it with new ones.
"Thanks again InuYasha." Kagome said, just before she looked at the phone on my nightstand table,
which started to ring.
I reached over and placed the reciever in between my ear and shoulder so I could finish
gauzing up Kagome's arm. "Hello, InuYasha."
"Hey InuYasha, you made sure Kagome got home safely last night right?" I heard Sango ask.
"Well...No...She's actually over here. We were followed, and needless to say I was busy fighting
she was busy getting herself hurt. Ow...that didn't hurt you know Kagome." I said as Kagome pulled
her hand away after hitting my shoulder.
"So she stayed the night at your house? Ok, ok Miroku, shut up, here, take it. Yeesh."
"What did you give him?" I asked, knowing they had to have made a bet.
"Fifty dollars. We had made a bet last night that she would end up at your place, I said
no, but I guess Miroku was right...for once in his life..." Sango said, her voice held a bit of
a smirk.
"Yes well tell him, what he is thinking happened, didn't happen. I know how he bets." I said
casting Kagome a glance as she stood and stretched, the shirt she wore going up baring her midriff.
My eyes did a once over on her body, where I saw her legs thin, long, and tall. My eyes wondered
up, and held onto her midriff, where the skin was pale and smooth, I had to resist putting my hands
on her.
I looked her up some more and kept my eyes away from her breasts. No way was I going to ogle
her. I rested my eyes instead at her face, where her lips curled into a mischevious smile, one
that said beware. I didn't know what she was up to until I was pelted by a pillow.
I looked at her, and she was smiling, a smile that was trying to conceal guiltiness, but at
the same time, trying to act innocent, the smile caused me to laugh.
"What are you laughing about InuYasha?" Sango asked, "Oh wait, is Kagome tickling you behind
your ears?"
"No, but because you said that loud enough for her to hear, I wouldn't put it past her. Thanks
alot Sango." I said, and looked at Kagome, where she had been at least.
I felt her hands gently tickling behind my ears as I reached back, grabbing her around the
waist, pulling her around and dropping her onto the bed where she started to giggle. I shook my
head and rubbed behind my ears, keeping her away from my head, now that was a task. She was able
to slip under my arms and tickle behind my ears so I ended up grabbing her around the waist and
dropping her back onto the bed.
"What are you two doing over there InuYasha? Are you two actually getting along? If that's
so than I'm amazed." Sango said, her voice carrying the hint of a smile.
"Shut up Sango," I said, before she got a little too carried away and started to tell what my
secret was. Now that wouldn't be a good thing. I didn't need Kagome to know anything of what
I tell to Miroku and Sango.
Kagome looked up at me, as she was still lying on the bed from where I had dropped her last.
Her eyes were hard to read, like a mixture of mischevoiusness and something I had never truly seen
before. I had seen it in the way Miroku looked at Sango, and how other couples look at one another.
But was that what we were, a couple? I didn't know, I just stared into her eyes, keeping my own
emotionless.
As I hung up the phone I was still watching Kagome, not giving her an opportunity to sneak
a tickle behind my ears. She stood up and stretched again, and I knew she knew my eyes were on her
the whole time she stretched. She looked down at me and I saw her face, she was blushing! I smiled
and stretched, knowing she would be staring at my bare upper body. I looked up at her eyes, she was.
Kagome started towards the door, I stood and put my hand on her shoulder, "Where do you think
your going?" I asked.
"To my apartment to change, these clothes aren't exactly meant for two day wear. And I have to
go see the landlord about my moving in with you. Although that just sounds wrong." she said, her
eyes saying different.
"Ok, but be careful, I don't think that group learned their lesson last night." I said, keeping
my eyes out of her view.
"Alright, god, you act as though your my boyfriend or something, yea right, like that would
EVER happen." She said as she left.
"...I'm not going to say anything..." I said as I went into the bathroom to take a shower.
