Oh my god! It's been an eternity since I even sat at my computer this long...I LOVE my computer!!!!!!

Aw, hell...YOU'RE ALL AWESOME! Thank you for liking this story and feeling the urge to review even though I'm the worst updater ever...

The Wish to Break All
Chapter 5

"Kagome, I..." Kagome's heart beat about 300 miles per hour. Was that healthy? Of course not...What was he going to say? After a few minutes of pensive, silent waiting, she decided that he wasn't going to say anything. She realized that he'd done this many times. He'd start saying something, and then freeze up as if he--His lips brushed against hers, effectively jolting her back into reality. Or was it fantasy? Kagome suddenly remembered dreaming of this moment, wishing for it as if it were some distant star...untouchable. She didn't have time to respond properly before he started pulling away from her. How disappointing...He never finished pulling away, however, and kissed her again. Hard. So hard that she could feel his frustration and anger surging through him. She wanted to help him. Hell, she always wanted to help him, he just never let her get close enough. This time, she followed suit and subconsciously found his ears. He mumbled something against her mouth when she rubbed them, then nibbled her lower lip. Naturally, she rubbed them more. He pulled away from her quickly and said thickly,
"Don't do that."
"Why?" Kagome replied. "It feels good, right?"
"Er..." Inuyasha fidgeted in place and turned an interesting shade of red. "Uh..." Kagome waited patiently for him to say yes or no. "Just don't do it."
"Inuyasha!" she whined, pulling at his sleeves. "Just one more time!"
"No!" His eyes narrowed in determination.
"Pleas--"
"No!"
"Sit!"
"MMmnnfff!"

What Inuyasha really wanted to say was "What the hell you fucking bitch?" Unfortunately, it came out as more of an "Mmmff!" sound. Stupid Kagome...she just HAD to rub his fucking ears, didn't she? What she didn't know, and he would never tell her, was that it turned him on. Quite what you're thinking, no doubt. As his body was pressed into the packed dirt, he listened for Kagome to gloat or something. Something was a bit more like it, as she abruptly sat on his back, facing his head. He managed to lift his head enough to growl out a quick "what the hell" and glare death at a random bug making its humble way through life.
"I am going to sit on your back and rub your ears until I remember everything!" Kagome announced, as if it were the most natural thing in the world. It was very unnatural, in fact. Inuyasha finally managed to twist his upper body enough to glare at her out of the corner of his eye.
"I'm not your fucking genie!"
"I don't even know why I wanted to forget so badly..." Kagome mused to herself, reaching out and touching his ears. Inuyasha growled, but didn't move, though the spell had worn off. If she wanted to use him to remember, fine. As long as she gave him ramen later. Inuyasha patiently drummed his claws on the ground and tried to ignore her wonderful ear massage--er--whatever the fuck terrible thing she was doing...
"AH-HA!" Kagome hollered in triumph at last, giving his poor ears a rest.
"What?"
"I remember Hojo!" She pumped her fist in victory. Without thinking, Inuyasha sat up and faced her in one motion.
"Who is Joho?"
"Hojo."
"Uh-huh...who is he?" He glared, livid. So she remembered all about another boy before she remembered all about him, huh?
"Just some guy from my...er...time...Inuyasha, are you alright?" Kagome reached for him, and he backed away.
"You didn't remember anything about m--us?" He almost slipped there. He gave himself a good pat on the mental back for being quick enough to catch his mistake before Kagome could catch--
"Oh ho! I've made you jealous!" Kagome was gloating much more than she used to...Really made Inuyasha wonder exactly what she did remember.

~

"AH-HA!" Kagome hollered in triumph at finally remembering a crucial element from Inuyasha's time. Now was her chance to really test him...she cackled inside her own head, something she knew she'd never done before, and prepared to give Inuyasha a real run for his money.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Woohoo! Not exactly a cliffhanger, but not exactly a happily ever chaper ending, either! Mwahaha. So what is Kagome planning to do? I'm sure you all can guess. I have to admit, this chapter was a bit rushed, and I never quite got into the "flow" of it since my dad kept dragging me away to do homework and have father-daughter bonding and crap...*goes off muttering* Anyway, review! (I won't make any promises on quick updates this time, I've learned my lesson!)
Next chapter might be the last one, look forward to it! Way, way forward...hahahaha
