Chapter 9

Kagome woke up to the smell of freshly cooked bacon and another that she liked to think of as the 'aftermath of lovemaking'.

She never thought she would actually sleep with Sesshoumaru, but the thought did occur on many occasions during her puberty years. Not that she wasn't still going through some additional changes.

She felt the mattress shift a little as Sesshoumaru turned around. "Morning, did I wake you?"

She shook her head 'no' and pecked him on the cheek. Sesshoumaru started to say something but stopped to yawn. There wasn't anything more cute than a still sleepy-eyed, naked Sesshoumaru in the morning.

As her eyes traveled downward, she realized for the first time that the bed sheet stopped at her waist. He yawned again and sniffed.

"Did my parents get home?"

"That's what the bacon says."

~X~

Inuyasha woke up to the smell of bacon and eggs. It was about 8:30 and the first time he didn't have a major hangover. But that wasn't the only reason why he was all-chipper this morning. He and Kikyo were officially going out now.

Although he wouldn't be her first, he would hopefully be her last. Well, that's what she told him when he dropped her off last night after the carnival.

'Speaking of the carnival, it really sucked.'

He got up and tossed a random t-shirt on. Just as he was heading out the door, his mom called him down. He passed Sesshoumaru's door down the hall and started to wake him, but thought better of it.

"Sesshoumaru is so not a morning person."

He went down the two flights of stairs to the kitchen where his dad was wolfing down pancakes and his mom setting two more places.

"Do you know if Kagome's here?"

"I don't know. She probably is though."

"Why don't you check for you mother?"

Inuyasha lingered to savor the look of his father drowning the eggs and bacon in Mrs. Butterworth's syrup. He licked his lips and whimpered a little. "Sure, I'll go."

~X~

"No, we have to get up."

Sesshoumaru was currently holding Kagome down to the bed. He stared directly into her eyes as he moved his mouth to her pert nipple. He lowered his eyelashes as he caught one between his teeth, pulling slightly.

She gasped loudly when he started to suck hard and twirl the other nipple between his thumb and index finger.

Last night was what he expected it to be and more. The only bad part being that it was both their first time and he was as nervous as a jitterbug.

She'd been so tight and hot, it was enough to drive anyone insane.

He started to move down but stopped and flipped her over instead. He could see her frown but it left her face quickly as she started to kiss harshly.

She rubbed her pelvis against his own and smirked on his skin when she heard him groan. She'd never know she was that bold and that she had that much desire in her. Sesshoumaru practically woke them all up after their second kiss.

She pushed his lips apart roughly while bringing the bed spread over their heads.

Sesshoumaru brought it back down and broke off the kiss.

"What'd you do that for?"

A kiss on the cheek. "I don't want us to be seen."

A squeeze on a nipple and a loud 'eep'. "Don't worry about it. They all think I'm not a morning person. Ever since that incident with Inuyasha and the water bucket."

Kagome grinned and swooped down to catch him in a passionate kiss. Then, without them hearing it, the doorknob turned and someone walked into the room.

"Hey, dad said for you..." Inuyasha let the sentence drop as he noticed the seemingly oblivious couple making out on the bed. He watched as Sesshoumaru moved his hand lower under the sheets and Kagome wrap her creamy, slender arms around Sesshoumaru's head. Sesshoumaru squeezed Kagome's bum and she moaned into his mouth. After she straddled Sesshoumaru's torso, the sheet fell a little and Inuyasha could some of her breasts. Like every curious boy at the private school who thought Kagome attractive, he wanted to see more. But to spare all three of them embarrassment, he cleared his throat. And just in time, because it seems that Kagome and Sesshoumaru were about to join again.

With a loud screech, Kagome managed to climb off of Sesshoumaru and flipped the sheets over their heads again.

"See, I told you Sesshoumaru!"

"Told me what?"

"Your brother's been at the door for who knows how long!"

"Oh," Sesshoumaru replied lamely. He gently took the edge of the sheet away from her white knuckles and eased it away to reveal his pink face and Kagome's tomato one.

"It seems that you two were sorta busy last night, eh?"

"Shut the hell up, gaki. What do you want?"

Inuyasha chuckled at Kagome's obvious unease but answered his brother's question none-the-less. "Dad said get down here to eat breakfast with the rest of us," he laughed then added. "and ma also wanted to make sure Kagome's here. I guess this answers her question. Anyway, you better hurry up 'cause dad's eating like a pig." With that, he left and went back to the kitchen, laughing all the way.

When he was asked what he was so happy about, he just answered

"Yeah, Kagome's here."

His parents could only guess exactly what that meant.

About five minutes later, Sesshoumaru and Kagome walking down the stairs hand in hand, Sesshoumaru waiting for his brother to say anything. When he didn't, Sesshoumaru eased the glare down. Just a little.

The family ate their breakfast in silence until Kagome couldn't stand it anymore. So, she decided to talk about the carnival.

~X~

"Hey, Kagura?"

"What?"

"I thought you wanted to go out with Sess-chan."

"How can I if that bitch always hogs him to herself?"

"I know you're jealous and all, but you don't have to start the name calling."

"Oh yeah, that's right. You do have a thing for Kagome, don't you?"

"So, you have a thing for Sesshoumaru," he accused harshly. "You know what? I have a surefire plan that can get us both what we want."

Kagura looked at her cousin skeptically, but then nodded her head.

Anything would suffice, plus, her cousin is a mastermind.

A/N: I didn't post this chapter in so long because I didn't get enough reviews for the 8th chapter. I only got like 2. Also because I was trying to finish Abhorssen by Garth Nix. I read the first 2 books last summer, and I was waiting for the last one, until my friend told me that it's been out for the longest. I felt really dumb, so she let me borrow hers. I'm about halfway done with the book, so I'll be writing Humans (What's Love sequel). Anyway, this story is like almost at its climax or whatever, meaning it's almost done.

Gaki- loser
