Chapter 1 Ass Pains

Disclaimer: WAAH! Why can't Inuyasha be mine? It's not fair! Author's note: For those of you who enjoyed my story, "Down the Well! Again!", I'm sorry. I really wanted to post the Four Books first, but if you're desperate, email me. I was gonna wait until I'd finished Book III, but if you really want to read it, I'll hook that up for you.

"Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed. "Aagghh!" A large tail wrapped itself around the girl and threatened to squeeze the life. She struggled to breathe.
Ssstupid girl," hissed the giant snake yƓkai. "That half breed cannot sssave you. He'll sssoon die from all the poisson in him!" She let out a horrible laugh. "You cannot win againsst me!" Sango's hiraikotsu hit her right in the head. The large snake dropped Kagome and shrieked in pain. "Fool! You'll pay for that!" She lifted her head and aimed for the boomerang-throwing offender. She struck quickly, but only succeeded in eating dirt as Sango escaped on Kirara's back.
"Everyone, back away!" yelled Miroku. I'm going to draw her into my wind tunnel!" Just as he was about to remove the rosary on his hand, the snake demon turned her head and stared at the monk. He was powerless to resist her hypnotism, and thus, fell to the ground.
"Foolss!" cried the snake, as her tongue lashed out menacingly. "I Will devour you all!" She lifted her head and aimed for Kagome. "You shall be firsst!"
"Oi, snake!" Inuyasha called from below. He lifted his sword like a bat, ready to slice through the wind scar. "Eat this!" He swung, and in a blinding flash of light, the demon was destroyed. Her scaly head hit the ground with a loud thud. Inuyasha fell to his knees and winced in pain.
"Inuyasha!" gasped Kagome. She ran to his side and helped him remove his fire-rat fur jacket. The shoulder of his white kimono was soaked in blood. "Gods, this doesn't look good." She ran to get her bag and returned. "Inuyasha, take this." She gave him some familiar white pills.
"Aww," groaned the injured hanyou. "Not those ass-pains again!"
"Aspirins," corrected Kagome, as she fumbled through her bag for some bandages. "Now sit still. I have to bandage that wound." *Five economy-sized bandages later, in a grateful villager's hut...
"Owww! What the hell are you doing?" screamed Inuyasha. Kagome was behind him, tending to his wounds.
"Quit whining," said Kagome. "You can take a huge snake bite, but you cry over a little alcohol."
"I'm NOT crying!" yelled the enraged hanyou. "And that doesn't feel like a little alcohol. Feels more like half the bottle. She finished putting on the bandages.
"There," she said. "Finished." She shifted so that she was on Inuyasha's other side. They were silent for a while.
"Inuyasha," said Kagome, breaking the silence. Inuyasha's ears twitched.
"Nani?" he asked.
"Thanks for saving me," she said, laying her head on his uninjured shoulder.
"U-uh, sure," he said nervously. He wasn't sure what he should do. Should he pat her on the head? Should he run away? Should he tell her he liked her hair? What was he supposed to do? Whether he'd made up his mind or not, his arm had, and it found its way around Kagome's shoulder without him noticing. Kagome looked up at him. He felt her eyes on him, and looked at her. "Kagome? Is there something-" She stopped him with a kiss. A chill ran down his spine, and then a warm feeling spread throughout him. He was melting. Kagome broke the kiss.
"Inuyasha!" she gasped. "I'm so sorry! I don't know what happened! What's wrong with me? How could I do that to you? I..." As she stammered her apologies, Inuyasha couldn't help noticing how pretty she was. Her raven hair glistened as she shook her head frantically. Her glassy eyes shimmered as she berated herself loudly. Even her neck caught his attention as she continued to come down on herself. His eyes traveled down her hourglass- shaped body, and he realized he had fallen in love with her.
"Kagome," he said, ,interrupting her. "I enjoyed that." Kagome fell silent, not believing her ears. He took her hands in his and leaned forward. He kissed her, slipping his tongue into her mouth. All the blood in his body rushed to his head. He was dizzy. Was it his imagination, or was Kagome kissing him back? Yes! He could feel her sucking on his lip. If he didn't need to breathe, he would have never stopped kissing her.
""Inuyasha," gasped Kagome, panting as though she'd been underwater. "Are you trying to tell me something?" Was he trying to tell her something? He didn't know.
"Maybe," he said, breathing heavily. "You tryin' to tell me something?" Was she? She couldn't say. All she knew was that that had been the best moment of her life.
"I asked you first," she said, unable to think of anything meaningful to say.
"You kissed me first," countered Inuyasha, smirking.
"Was it me, or did I hear you say you enjoyed it?" Kagome asked in an accusatory tone. The hanyou was taken aback. Luckily, he was saved the trouble of replying when Miroku called for them to come out and eat.
"We'll talk about this later," he said, and exited the hut. She had to be seeing things. Had he just smiled? She replayed the moment in her head. Yep. Definitely a smile. She smiled herself at the thought.

Kagome hummed to herself as she bathed. She had the whole morning to relax before they set off again, and she wanted to feel refreshed before they continued their hunt for the sacred jewel shards. She waded in the water, glad for once that the water was cold. It was such a hot day, and it would only get hotter as the day wore on.
"Oi," said an unmistakable voice. "Kagome." She swam behind a rock before responding.
"Inuyasha?" she called. She pushed herself deeper into the water. "Inuyasha, is that you?" She looked around. The half demon jumped out of a tree overhead, and landed on the rock Kagome was hiding behind.
"Hey," he said. "You don't mind, do ya?" She shook her wet head. "All right." He sat down on the rock and looked away while Kagome continued to bathe. "So, what happened yesterday?" Kagome looked over her shoulder at him. What was she supposed to say? It was an accident, sort of. What she didn't consider saying was:
"Come in with me, and I'll tell you."
Inuyasha almost broke his neck turning his head so fast. When he saw her, his jaw fell. 'What am I thinking?' thought Kagome. 'Where did that come from?' She thought about what she had just said, and it sent shivers down her back. Pleasurable shivers. 'What could it hurt?' she thought. She smiled.
"K-Kagome, are you okay?" Inuyasha covered his eyes. 'Maybe the heat's gettin' to her,' he thought.
"I'm fine," she giggled. "What are you waiting for? Come in!" Inuyasha hesitated, then took off his fire-rat fur jacket.
"You sure about this, Kagome?" he asked. She giggled.
"Yes, Inuyasha, now come in!" She beckoned for him to come into the water. He slowly pulled off his clothes, and edged himself into the water. Kagome gasped.
"So," he began uncertainly, "What's this about?" Kagome giggled and swam over to him.
"Inuyasha." She drew a line down his chest with her finger. He cocked his head at her. She waded closer to him until their bodies were touching. He wondered what was going on.
'What's she up to?' thought Inuyasha. He looked at her. Her hand grazed his organ, and he shuddered with pleasure. What new feeling was this? What did she want from him? She touched him again, and he thought he'd explode. He looked at her, and she looked at him as if to say, "Well? Aren't you going to touch me?" He reached forward and cupped her breast in his hand, then started to squeeze. She squeezed him below his waist, and he could take no more.
"Kagome," he groaned. He held her wrists in one hand, and kissed her softly. "No more games. I have to know." He kissed her again, and broke away gradually, letting the taste of his kiss linger in her mouth.
"What?" she asked desperately. "What do you have to know?" He kissed her neck, causing her to moan. She had never felt this way before. He was setting her free, somehow, from a spell she never knew she was under. Until now.
"Kagome," he gasped. "I need you. Let me go into you, Kagome." She could feel his heart beating wildly in her own chest. She didn't know about this. Was it a good idea? All her life, she had been told to wait when it came to this, and here it was, right in front of her. Even though common sense told her it wasn't the best idea, her instincts told her to go for it. And besides, she started it.
"H-hai," she said. The hanyou snatched her up out of the water and leapt onto the ground beside the lake. He laid her out gently, and got on top of her.
"Kagome," he said softly. "Tell me if it hurts, okay?" She nodded, unable to speak.
