Inuyasha woke up and stretched his arms and legs. He looked around and sat straight up. That's not my bedroom! he thought, before the events of last night came back to his mind.

He was in Kagome's bed. She was not there with him but he smelled coffee so she must have woken up before him and got up to eat breakfast.

He put his pants on and followed the rich aroma. Kagome was in the kitchen, mixing eggs with cheese, bacon and chives, while humming a song. She didn't notice him yet, so he stealthily walked behind her and slid his hands from her sides to her stomach, startling her.

Before she could move, he kissed her neck softly. She immediately felt week in the knees and leaned against his chest.

"Good morning you." The hanyo murmured in her ear, making her shiver. "It smells good in here, but not as good as you..." He then gave her a searing kiss on the crook of her neck, making her whine softly.

Kagome turned around in his arms and gripping locks of his silvery white hair, she pulled his face towards hers and kissed him fervently. He returned her kiss with as much passion, leaving them both panting.

"Damn, that's the best good morning I've ever had!" exclaimed the woman, grinning.

"I couldn't resist." Inuyasha answered, giving her one of his irresistible crooked smile. "What were you making for breakfast?"

"Bacon and cheese omelet. I just need to cook it. Would you mind putting some bread in the toaster?" she asked.

"Sure." He kissed her lightly and did what she asked.

Once everything was ready, they sat at the kitchen table and ate their breakfast.

"Do you have anything planned today?" asked Inuyasha.

"Not really, though I have to do the grocery and my laundry if I want to eat and have something to wear tomorrow." she answered.

"I wouldn't mind if you didn't have any clothes on." he said, grinning.

Kagome blushed and almost choke on her omelet. "W-What, now?"

The hanyo chuckled. "Well, not right now obviously... but in a near future, if you'd want it too."

"I..."

"You don't need to answer, you know. We'll see where this..." Inuyasha pointed at her and then at him. "...will lead us."

"I would be lying to you if I said that... I wouldn't be interested." She blushed even more.

The hanyo smiled and reached across the table to hold her hand. He was looking at their joint hands while caressing the back of hers with his thumb.

"I want to be honest with you... In the past 250 years I... I had sex with many women throughout the years. Not more than one at a time! But I'm an healthy hanyo and I have needs..."

He cleared his throat, blushing slightly, and looked at her. "I admit I had fun, but... how I felt last night, how my self-control faltered... That never happened to me before. And we were just making out! I don't know why... I'm completely in unknown territory here."

Kagome gazed into his golden eyes. "I... I'm not worried though, even if I'm also at loss. I'm pretty sure we'll figure it out. And honestly... I know I said yesterday that I didn't want to have sex right away but... If you hadn't stopped, I'm not sure I would have been able to..."

Inuyasha gulped. "Oh... Then we'll have to figure it out fast."

Kagome chuckled. "Do you think it's a hanyo thing or a yokai thing?"

"I don't know honestly." he answered.

"Do you know someone who could have a clue about this?"

"Err... That's the thing. The only two yokais I could contact are my brother and my boss... So yeah." Inuyasha cringed and Kagome laughed.

"Ok no. We'll do some research on our own then. You could search on internet and I'll check at work if I can find something."

"Yeah good idea. I really don't want to have to ask these two."

After breakfast, Inuyasha decided to go back to his place to shower and change into clean clothes and Kagome did her laundry. The hanyo suggested they meet after lunch so he could drive her to and from the grocery store.

It was Sunday evening and Kagome was watching a show on Netflix while eating her dinner.

She was really grateful for Inuyasha to have gone grocery shopping with her. He even brought all the bags in her appartment and helped her unpack everything. He had to leave at 5 pm after receiving a call from Koga, asking him to work for the night. There was a batchelor party going on and the staff was unable to keep up with the pace of their drinking.

After watching 3 episodes of her favorite show, she took a steaming hot shower.

Her mind started to wander while lathering shampoo in her hair and she thought about Inuyasha. She didn't know if what they have could lead to officially dating but she had never been so sure about wanting to be with someone. Even though they just met 3 weeks ago, whenever they were together, it just felt... right. And now electrifying.

She didn't date that much in her life. She had dated a couple of guys in high school but nothing more serious than teenage love. When she was 19, she dated a sweet guy, Hojo, for 6 months but even if he was a really good guy, she never felt like he was the right one for her.

A year after, she had met Bankotsu and they dated for 4 years. She thought he truly loved her. She had lost her virginity with him and he was always showering her with gifts and affection. But it was all a facade. She was so broken hearted when she learned that he had been seeing other women behind her back. At some point, she thought she would never overcome the pain and didn't know if she would be able to trust again.

And then, she met this wonderful hanyo who changed everything. Her heart was healing and she could see a future with him. She didn't want to be getting ahead of herself but... It's like deep down, she felt he was the right one and it was exciting but scary.

"Only time will tell." she thought out loud.

As soon as he arrived at the Wolf's lair, Inuyasha was submerged with orders for drinks. The futur groom was with around 20 guys and they drank a lot. He didn't really interact with any of them because he wasn't serving the drinks, only mixing them and opening the beer and wine bottles to help his colleagues.

It was only 8 pm and at least half of them were wasted. The groom-to-be was nowhere to be seen. Inuyasha bet that he was passed out in the men's bathroom.

At 9 pm, Koga decided that they all drank enough since no one was able to walk straight.

Not wanting to deal with those drunkards, the hanyo subtly left the bar. Anyway he was there for backup, and they didn't need him anymore.

He checked his phone and saw he had 3 unread texts.

Miroku: [Hey man, what are you up to?]

Miroku: [No answer, huh? I bet your hands are busy all over Kagome ;)]

Miroku : [Or is it more than just your hands? XD]

Inuyasha rolled his eyes before he answered.

Me: [I was working.]

Miroku: [Ah. Koga was panicking and called you to the rescue?]

Me: [For once, the struggle was real.]

Miroku: [What happened?]

Me: [Two words: batchelor party]

Miroku: [Yikes! Hey, wanna drink a beer at my place and relax?]

Me: [Why not? I'll be there in 20 min.]

Inuyasha and Miroku were sitting on the couch, a microbrewery beer in hands.

Inuyasha took a sip of the refreshing beverage and noticed that Miroku was looking at him, concerned.

"Do I have something on my face or what?"

"Is something wrong, Inuyasha?"

"What? No. Everything is alright." the hanyo answered. He took another long sip of beer. "That beer is really good. I'll have to write down the brand."

"So why are your ears twitching that much?"

Inuyasha sighed. "Keh. I told you I'm fine."

"But...?" asked Miroku.

"But you're annoying."

Miroku sighed and stretched. "Ok then. So it was crazy at the bar tonight?"

"You have no idea. A batchelor party. With 20 guys who drink like frat boys."

"Oof, that must have been chaotic. Was there any strippers?"

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. Of course his friend would ask that. "No."

"That's a shame."

The boys finished their beer in silence. Inuyasha was fidgeting with his empty can, while Miroku was patiently waiting. He knew something was bothering the hanyo. He planted the seed earlier and was waiting for it to sprout.

Inuyasha stopped fidgeting. "Something happened yesterday." he started. "Something that never happened before."

"And that is?"

"Yesterday... I was making out with Kagome and... my yokai side became quite agitated. Her smell was driving me crazy... and I felt like a fucking teenager who can't control his sex drive!"

Miroku was surprised.

"Ok... What did you do about that?"

"Nothing. I stopped. I can't lose control. I don't want to hurt her." Inuyasha answered, annoyed. "I need to know what the hell is happening to me."

"Probably a yokai thing... And it's not like you could talk with your father or someone..."

"I have no choice but to figure that out on my own."
