Chapter?: Fainting and a Sit or Two are Worth It in the End














___________________________________________________________________________




Kagome had almost fallen asleep already, she was that tired..But then Inuyasha had said something..What did he say..'oh yeah..he just said my name..I guess I better answer him...but..so..sleepy..'









To tired to say anything else, she grumbled out something just to let him know she had heard him.."Uh huh.."









'Am I imagining things..or can I feel him grinning into my hair..?'..He didn't say anything for a minute, and she almost fell asleep..but when he DID say something, she was brought wide awake..









"Your in heat.", and, as he said it, his hand ventured down to somewhere even Miroku would be ashamed of.

















'what did he just say? WHAT IS HE DOING!'















"EEEEEEEEEEEEPPPP!!!", Kagome leaped out of her bed, landing halfway across the room, still not accustomed to how far she could jump as a hanyou, she landed on her desk. Obviously deciding that was as good a place as any, she stayed put, leaning her back into the wall behind her, her feet accidently knocking off a folder or two.














Inuyasha had expected expected a number of things, but, a practicaly cringing Kagome on top of a desk was not one of them..sure..he didn't expect her to yell 'TAKE ME, TAKE ME NOW!'...as much as he would have prefered THAT particular reaction... he had known she would be shocked, and probably a little angry..but..well, she was kind of over doing it.
















"I'm in..I'm in..W-W-WHAT!", It was quiet clear that Kagome had NOT been expecting that.













Inuyasha grinned, obviously deciding he was pleased with the result that had brought, he rolled over onto his back and put his arms behind his head, looking very very full of himself.















"Surely I don't have to explain what being in heat means..do I?", Inuyasha KNEW he was just asking for a 'sit', but he couldn't resist.












No..I..um..know what that means..ugh! SI-", Instead of saying 'it' she was silenced by Inuyasha shaking his head. "Why are you shaking your head?! You think THAT will stop me from saying 'the word'?"












"You wouldn't want to break your bed would you.?"












Kagome looked thoughtful..
















Inuyasha brought the hand that had went..ahem..'somewhere'..to his nose and sniffed it. "Yep, your DEFINATELY going into heat!"













"SIT SIT SIT!", Obviously, after that last comment, her bed was no longer one of her top priorities..killing her mate was.














Of course, since Inuyasha was already laying down, the only thing the 'sits' did was bring him down into the bed roughly, which proved to only make him bounce back up.















"Hey..that was kind of fun.."


















"UGH!!", Kagoem sat down on the floor, putting her head in her hands. She had no idea what she was supposed to think..'I'm in heat?...like a dog? Well..of course like a dog...I'm a DOG youkia..well..What does this mean!?..UGH!..and the only person I'm going to get any information about this on, just happens to be the most stubborn, full of himself, jerk around...UGH!"
















Inuyasha laughed at his mate, "yep..this was definately worth the sits..actualy..the sits were kinda fun..'. Knowing that he should probably take Kagome out of her misery, he decided he should probably stop acting like a jerk and explain this to her.
















"OK, Kagome, come here."












She raised her head and looked at him coldly, "Why should I?"























"Because your my mate and I said so!"















"Right now, thats not a very convincing reason."
















"Fine then, I guess your gonna just have to figure this out on your own.", he knew that would get her, there was no way that Kagome would want to experience something like this not knowing anything about it.
















Just as he had predicted, Kagome sighed reluctantly and walked over to her bed, of course, she did not get too close to Inuyasha, opting to just sit indian style near the edge.














"Alright, fine, I'm here, now tell me about it.", It became evident to Inuyasha now, that she was blushing.













"Why are you blushing?", he asked, genuinly curious.
















"Inu-ya-sha!", She was now blushing an even deeper red..














"Don't be embarassed..okay..what DO you know about being in heat?", Inuyasha asked, scooting closer.


















"I..um..its like a period for dogs.its.....I used to have a dog, and..it went into heat..I think..twice a year..for about two weeks each time?", It was painfully clear that Kagome was very very embarrased and not much liking this little discussion.














'What the hell is a 'period'? It must be what future girls call their cycle..'














"Right Kagome, okay, for full youkia, it only lasts 7 days, since, they are dog demons, but, not actualy dogs, for hanyou, it lasts about 3 days, and full youkia go into it four times a year, for hanyou, 6 times....your not in heat YET, your going into it..you should be in it by tommorow though..". he explained calmly, trying his best to not embarass Kagome anymore than she already was..to his complete shock, when he looked at her, he found her..GRINNING?














"You mean, I'll only have this six times a year? So like, only every two months? For like three days? Your serious! WOW! Being in heat sure beats getting your period!", Kagome's embarrasement was clearly gone, having been replaced by general happiness, because, like any sane girl, she hated getting her period every month, and now, she would only have to get it every two months, for a considerably shorter amount of time.














"Um..right..why are you so happy about this? Just while a go, you were practicaly cringing in a corner..", now, Inuyasha was very confused.















Suddenly Kagome was reminded of just WHAT dogs did in heat, her face lost its grin, not to mention most of its color, "Oh Kami sama..."

















"What?! Whats wrong now?"















"Inuyasha..is that when..when youkia..mate?"



















A look of understanding swept over Inuyasha, "Uh..yeah, youkai do tend to mate during that time.."




















"Oh Kami-sama..", and, as anyone would who had just been bestowed such information, Kagome promptly fainted.

















"KAGOME!..are you alright?!", Inuyasha asked, very worried...'she smells..asleep? She must have fainted..stupid wench, it wasn't like I was gonna rape her!"















"Feh..", he sighed, as he pulled her limp body up onto the bed, laying her head on the pillow and pulling the covers over her, returning them both to their original position before he had to go and share a bit of infomation.



















It was hard for him to fall asleep, the enticing scent kept getting stronger, and, resisting it as he was, was not exactly easy, but, eventualy he did fall asleep, thankfully freeing himself from that scent.















**************************************************************************************















Kagome awoke to the feel of warm sunlight streaming through her window, she felt Inuyasha holding her and nudged him awake. Now beginning to recognize the difference in smells of someone who is awake, and someone who is asleep, she knew that her nudge had worked.

















"You know..I had the strangest dream.."













"Did it involve someone telling you that you were in heat..someone who forgot to mention its the most fucking tempting smell ever!"













"Oh..it wasn't a dream was it..?.", Kagome had kind of already known it wasn't a dream, she was just realy realy hoping that it was.."Oh Kami-sama..wait..TEMPTING?"




















"Damn right its tempting! You should feel realy glad I have a lot of self control! And don't go fainting on me again!"




















Kagome couldn't help but giggle when Inuyasha said he had self control, "You! Self Control? Riiiiight..."




















"Feh! I have plenty of self control! You don't even want to know what most youkia would have done in my situation!", Inuyasha defended, as he jumped out of bed, "Come on, get up! Everyone else is awake already! And they've got breakfast cooking...and I don't think I can stand being in the same room with you and that smell, alone!"














Kagome blushed, trying her best to not faint again..'ok, maybe its safe to say that Inuyasha has more self control that most youkia, but that doesn't mean that he has self control, that just means he is not an evil killer!', she got out of bed, making her way to the door, but was stopped by Inuyasha's hand grabbing hold of her arm.

















"What?"













"Were gonna test your senses, whats your mom cooking?", Inuyasha was trying to get his mind off of her smell, thankful that there was the food as a diversion.














"Umm..", Kagome sniffed the air, a strange look coming over her, "Ramen? For breakfast? My mom must realy like you Inuyasha.."















"Feh, you ARE getting better.", he patted her on the back, careful to not to GET TOO close to her..with her smelling the way she did..that could be a very bad move.















__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________











"Are they awake yet Shippo?", Souta asked for the tenth time, knowing he wouldn't get to eat untill they were.












"When I told you that I would be able to tell when they are awake, I didn't think you would keep bothering me about it..", Shippo stated blandly making an equaly bland face. *A.N: LIKE THIS! -_-*
















"Well? Are they?!"












He sniffed the air..'OH NO!'.."Souta, I've had such a great time, I never get to play with kids my own age, do you think I could stay here a few days?", Shippo practicaly begged, quickly.
















Souta's face lit up.."SURE!, Your pretty cool Shippo! But only if you do some more of that shape shifting stuff."














"Um sure, I'll shape shift all you want..", truth was, at this point, he would basicaly do anything to stay here for just a few days..when he had sniffed to see if they were awake yet, he had also noticed the OTHER smell, Kagome was on her 'TIME', and he knew well enough just what adults did when their mates were on their 'time', he knew that during the 'time', mates did the 'adult thing' queit frequently, he also knew, that he would NOT be a welcome member of the group during the 'time'..when his mom was on her 'time', she always sent him off to stay with one of his friends a few days. Kagome probably wouldn't have the heart to send him away, but Inuyasha..well..he knew that Inuyasha was willing to go to great lengths to get rid of him..















"Are they awake?"



















Thankfully, instead of having to sniff again, he could hear their voices, he decided he did NOT want to hear just what they were saying, but did catch something about ramen.."Yep, their awake now."















__________________________________________________________________________________________________________












Kagome and Inuyasha entered the kitchen, Shippo and Souta sat on the floor, while Mrs.Higurashi cooked Ramen, Jii-chan, was, more than likely, using the bathroom or something.













"Good morning everyone, how did you sleep Shippo?", Kagome asked, curious to know how Shippo's first night away from anyone from their group had went.














"Fine fine, it went fine! In fact, Souta asked if I could stay a few more nights!, didn't you Souta?", he nudged Souta, not so subtley, in the ribs.














"Um..yeah...sure..Onee-chan, I did ask Shippo to stay a few days...", Souta said, obviously a little confused, but managing to lie queit well.













"Three days.", Shippo said, nudging Souta again.
















"Right..Three days.."
















Kagome looked at the two strangely, not making any connection between Shippo wanting to be away, and her being in heat.."Um..Sure Shippo-Chan, if you want too.."
















Inuyasha bit back a laugh and nodded to Shippo in approval, he wasn't sure WHAT Kagome and himself would be doing during her time, but he sure as hell knew that it wasn't a time that a pup like Shippo needed to be around for.


















Shippo was a little surprised to see Inuyasha actualy nodding at him, but, however, he did know aproval was always better that being slammed into a wall.



















Souta looked meaningfully at Shippo, a look that clearly said 'you better tell me whats going on after their gone.'.

















Shippo nodded at him, although he wasn't exactly looking forward to explaining to Souta that his sister was on her 'time', not to mention what youkia did on their 'time'...

















"Soo mom!, how did you sleep?", Kagome asked pleasantly, trying to be as nice as she could to her family before she left again.















"Oh, I SLEPT FINE SWEETY!, although I did wake up in the middle of the night..it sounded like people were moving around furniture!"
















"heh heh..musta been a dream mom!"



















"Or someone getting sat..", Shippo murmered.















Kagome glanced at him, and whispered to the youkia in the room, "or someone getting sat three times.."















Shippo laughed, Inuyasha ignored him..remembering that that sitting had been worth it.

















"Um..Kagome, when are we going home?", Inuyasha asked, knowing that this closed in house only trapped Kagome's heat scent, making it everywhere, which in turn made him very very..uncomfortable..or perhaps way TOO comfortable.




















"We SHOULD be getting back soon..I guess after we eat..", She decided.





















"OH SWEETY! Your leaving so soon? Oh but you will be back in three days to get your Shippo!"





















"Sorry mom, but we REALY should be getting back soon, its my home now, and my friends will be worried..", Kagome reminded, trying to sound as perky as her mother always did, 'its my home now, my friends will be worried AND we better leave soon before anyone notices that look Inuyasha's giving me...that look of LUST?..Just what DO I smell like!?'.


















"Ahem, INUYASHA, why don't you help my mother with the ramen!", suggested Kagome, hoping to draw him out of his little daydreams, or at least make him stop looking at her like THAT.



















"Ramen?! What? Oh..ramen..how am I supposed to help with the ramen?!, Inuyasha looked towards the ramen, for the first time realizing that he had been staring at Kagome, and more than likely, his stare had told her just what he was thinking.

















"I don't know, just go stand by her and stop looking at me like that before someone says something!", Kagome whispered to him harshly.

















"feh..", he murmered, as he went over to where Mrs.Higurashi stood, and decided to do exactly what Kagome had suggested, just stand there. Of course, Mrs.Higurashi noticed him standing there and used it to her advantage, reaching over and touching his ears every so often.




















Shippo had saw the way Inuyasha was staring at Kagome..he also had that look on his face that meant he was thinking..Shippo shuddered..that was just creepy.
















Soon breakfast was done and everyone ate (Jii-chan was back from the toilett or whatever by then), most conversation during that time consisted of Mrs.Higurashi planning out the Wedding party thing, Shippo being surprisingly queit, and Inuyasha staring at Kagome in a strange manner.








____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________














After everyone had finished eating, and Kagome had retrieved her backpack from her room, she decided it was time to go.
















"Hey mom, I think I'm gonna go now, Shippo-chan, are you SURE your gonna be alright?"















"Me!? Fine Fine! I'll be fine! You will come back for me...right?"















"Of COURSE Shippo-chan!", she gave him a quick hug and sat him back down.


















"Bye Bye Sweety! Here, take some ramen with you!", Mrs.Higurashi exclaimed as she handed Kagome many boxes of ramen.













"Umm thanks mom..", Kagome stuffed the boxes into her backpack.

















"Bye Jii-chan!, I'll bring you back some seals that actualy work next time...Oh, and, could you call the school and tell them I dropped out? Thanks.."














"Goodbye Kagome..yes I will tell them that you have contacted a horrible disease that has forced you to drop out of school."


















"Um..right..Okay, Bye now! Bye souta, Bye Mom, Bye Shippo! Bye Jii-chan!", She waved as she and Inuyasha walked out the door.





















"BYE!", they all called in unision.
















"Inuyasha! Say bye!"
















"Bye Kagome's family, Shippo..", he murmered, just loud enough for them to hear.











"BYE!"












Before Kagome could talk him into saying bye again, Inuyasha grabbed her and ran to the well, jumping in it without hesitation.













__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________













Kagome looked up to see the pale blue sky of Sengoku Jidai.














"Well...were back..", Kagome informed.












"Realy?", asked Inuyasha, sarcasticaly as he jumped out of the well with Kagome in tow.













"Ugh..I should of took another warm bath while I was still there...my stomache hurts.."














"Its because of the 'heat', just like humans, youkia experience stomache cramps when they're on their cycle.", explained Inuyasha.




















Kagome looked at him blandly, "Just how do you know all of this stuff?"















Inuyasha shrugged, "I just do, all youkia know, SHIPPO probably even knows..didn't you notice how he wanted to stay in the future for three days?"


















"You don't think its cause he knows I'm in heat, DO YOU?!", Kagome asked, blushing.














"Of course it is, bakka, now, if you want a bath, I know where theres a hotspring."


















Kagome blushed even darker, she didn't like the idea of Shippo knowing about her...heat..however, a hot spring sounded very nice, perhaps even better than a bath.
















"How far away is the hotspring?"














"Not too far..I'm gonna hafta teach you the scents of things, then you'd be able to smell the hot spring."













Inuyasha took a breath of the fresh air, he was very glad to be back in his time period, where everything smelled fresh and clean, not to mention the fact that it was a wide open space...where a certain scent wasn't trapped, where Kagome's heat scent was free to go about wherever it wanted instead of being cramped up in her house, contaminating all the air..yep, it was a lot easier for him to think without that scent everywhere..although it was still strong.
















"Lets go to the hotspring Inuyasha..if you don't mind.."



















"I wouldn't have suggested it if I minded, now would I?", with that, he picked her up and ran off to the hotspring.














(((((())))))))))))))))))))))(((((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))((()))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))))())))))














Not long after, they arrived at a rather large hotspring.
Inuyasha sat Kagome down and then sat himself down against a large rock.




















"Um..Inuyasha? You can't just stay there!", Kagome reminded, staring at Inuyasha.


















"Why not?", he asked, grinning.













"UGH! You can't watch me take a bath!"















"Why not?", he asked again, still grinning.
















"HENTAI!", she screamed as she went over to slap him, however her hand was stopped inches from his face.















"Your my mate Kagome! How does watching you bathe make me a hentai? I mean, I've seen you naked before!"

















"NOT WITH MY PERMISSION!"




















"Well, your my mate now, so, I should be able to see you naked with your permision!", Inuyasha reasoned, stubbornly.





















Kagome brought her hand away from his face and let it fall to her side. She looked to be considering his reasoning. 'Well..why can't he see
me naked? We ARE mates...thats just like being married..supposedly its MORE important than being married...Miroku's saw Sango naked..well..umm..', Kagome couldn't think of one reason why he couldn't see her naked. Giving up she grumbled something that sounded like 'fine', and turned her back to him, slipped out of her kimono, and entered the water as FAST as possible.





















However, she was rather unhappy to find that the water wasn't very deep, and, unfortunately, only went up a little over her waiste and that was with her sitting down..of course, this was unfortunate to her, NOT Inuyasha, who happened to be staring at the exposed skin rather intently.






















"Hentai..", she grumbled, as she leaned her back up against a rock in the middle of the pond.















*A/N:doesn't it seem like there are always conveniently placed large rocks in hotsprings/lakes, for them to lean up against..*




















She tried her best to ignore his staring as she relaxed in the warm soothing water, of course, it was quiet obvious to her that he was staring,
she could feel his eyes on her, which wasn't exactly the easiest way to relax. She closed her eyes, in hopes it would help.




















Inuyasha stared at Kagome. He had never got to see her naked before without being sat. And he was VERY aware that he was staring at a particular part of her anatomy, located just beneath her neck and above her stomache, more than anything else. 'Damn heat scent! Its driving
me crazy! And I can't stop staring at her breasts! I'm NOT Miroku..stop staring..I can't..at least staring is all I'm doing..of course. I wish it weren't....UGH!, DAMN FUCKING HEAT SCENT!!'




















Kagome opened one eye, 'yep..hes STILL staring at my boobs..and hes got that look in his eye again..'..

















Without even thinking it, Kagome calmnly said something that she, never, in a million years, expected to leave her mouth.













"Inuyasha, if you want me so bad, its not like I have any objections."



















'OHMIGOD! I did NOT just say that! THAT HAD TO BE THE 'HEAT' TALKING!..it may be true, but I WOULD NEVER SAY THAT! Damn heat..', however, before she could so much as blush, she found herself whisked out of the spring, and on the embankement with Inuyasha's tongue in her mouth.
















'Oh well, as long as I'm here....'
