Brainstorm,
takes me away from the norm,
Oh, I got to tell ya somethin',
This phenomenon, had to put it in a song,
and it goes like,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Inuyasha turned away, blushing slightly. He hoped Kagome didn't notice. Mentally stepping back for a second, he pondered what all this could mean. Kagome was the only girl who had ever made him blush...
The good news for Inuyasha was that Kagome had not noticed his blush. The bad news was that Kagome hadn't noticed because she was staring rather intently at his eyes. Consequentially, Inuyasha's blush grew more intense, spreading until his face felt like it would pop. He sank away, trying to hide himself from those blue eyes, staring at him magnanimously, trying to learn everything about him from his eyes.
The eyes that told a whole story, without a single word.
Suddenly, she jerked her head a little bit, looking at him again and asking, "Why are you sad?" It had sounded so innocent, like a small child.
He sighed. "It's... a long story..."
"I... I understand," she answered respectfully. 'He must have his reasons...'
"Ahem, so... yeah... it's getting late..."
"Yeah... ahh... do you have a shower I can use?" 'That was a stupid question...'
"Hmm? Sure, down the hall on the right," he said absentmindedly. Kagome nodded and walked off down the hall.

Who-oa, amber is the colour of your energy,
who-oa, shades of gold displayed naturally,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
At the end of the hall, Kagome found herself face with two doors. She shrugged, deciding to just check the closest door first, and turned the knob. She was a greeted with a wave of cool air and a soft blue light. Curious, she walked down the stairs in front of her and found herself in what appeared to be someone's bedroom. Taking a closer look around, she decided that this had to be Inuyasha's room. She walked over to where a beautiful acoustic guitar was standing in a corner. The instrument itself was a natural tint at the center, fading to black as it got closer to the edges (aka Sunburst ^.^). Scattered around the instrument were many sheets of paper, some Manuscript paper, others tablature, even a few lyric sheets lay in the entanglement. She picked one up and scanned it. She wondered if he had written it, because it certainly did not seem familiar to her. She shrugged and pick up another. Then she almost fainted. She read it again... no, it was definitely it. It was the same as the poem she had found on the first day of school...
Hearing footsteps above, she hurriedly threw the sheet back into the pile and made a mad dash for the bathroom. Luckily, when she got to the hall, Inuyasha was nowhere in sight. She gave a sigh of relief and slunk into the bathroom. After her heart had stopped beating, she turned on the water and began to undress. Just as she was about to step in, she heard a knock on the door. She went over and opened it a crack, one intense amber eye visible on the other side. "You forgot your clothes," he said simply, indicating the bag he held in his hand. She took it from him, hiding behind the door and muttering thanks. What was it about his eyes?
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You ought to know what brings me here,
o-oh,
you glide through my head blind to fear,
and I know why,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Kagome sighed as she turned off the water. She had spent the majority of the past half hour thinking. Thinking about Inuyasha, his past, the lyrics she had found, the sadness in his eyes... She couldn't make sense of it all. In fact, there was only one thing she was sure of now.
She had feelings for him. Real, true, deep feelings.
A week ago she would have scoffed at the idea. Funny how things change, isn't it? Kind of like that David Bowie song...
She shrugged and wrapped a towel around herself. She was too tired to bother searching for some even relatively clean clothes. Besides, Inuyasha wouldn't be up now, would he? Reassuring herself with a nod, she walked out the door, started off down the hall and collided rather abruptly with a silver haired youth. Her eyes found his for the third time that night.
But his eyes, however, were not focused on her. His eyes were pointed a little bit lower... The small drip of blood hitting the flood could be heard as Inuyasha's nose began to bleed profusely. It took Kagome a second to notice how cold it had gotten...
"AAIIEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!" she screamed, and immediately began fwapping him up-, down-, and around-side the head. In the confusion, she stumbled forward, falling on top of the poor victim of circumstance.
It took a few moments again for realization to dawn. Inuyasha opened his eyes, and found it very hard to see because of the unidentified, soft, round objects that were being firmly pressed against his face. He let out a terrified "meep!" and tried to slink away, but found it very hard to do with his legs wrapped around Kagome's. Poor kid.
However, the boy was saved miraculously when Kagome, rather than beating him more as he had anticipated, began to laugh hysterically. She began to get up, to Inuyasha's relief, but rather than stand she rearranged herself on top of him, so that her head was on his shoulder.
She sighed and snuggled closer to him, all the while sending the confused boy to hell and back with emotions. Here was this girl, a total babe, one of the most well known in school, snuggling on top of him. The smell of her hair was intoxicating, and the feel of her pressing against him was sending every instinct of his over the top. He was loving every minute of this.
Loving every minute of her...

Who-oa, Amber is the colour of your energy,
Who-oa, shades of gold displayed naturally,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
She sighed again and snuggled closer to him. She had to suppress a giggle as his face went through several different shades of red. She lazily wrapped an arm around his neck and planted a soft kiss on his cheek. "You know what?" she voiced lethargically, "I think I had an epiphany in the shower. And you know what I realized?"
He shook his head no, but he had a feeling he knew what she was gonna say. And he had another feeling that he would like it very, very much.
And he was right.

Kagome was staring again, into the deep pools of gold that had been occupying most of her thought recently. But this time, it was different. She didn't see any of the sadness that was usually there. Just an intent gleam, staring at her in an almost wanting expression. She continued, "I realized... that I don't like seeing the sadness in your eyes. That when you were happy, I'd be happy. So I want to make you happy, from now on. I'll be by your side. Always. Loving you." She put a finger on his nose poignantly, before placing a soft kiss on his lips.
He returned the kiss hungrily, yet gently, as if he were both desperate for her and afraid of her at the same time. Inuyasha gently nipped Kagome's lower lip, willing her mouth to open and allow his tongue entrance. They stayed like lake for a few moments, exploring each other, desperately needing each other. Inuyasha was briefly aware of a small fear, the fear that this was all just s crazy dream he was having. But as they pulled apart and he looked into Kagome's eyes, he was sure that it was real. There was no way he could have dreamed the longing in those cerulean pools, as she gazed at his own amber eyes intently. He leaned colse, until his mouth was right by her ear, and whispered, "I love you, too..." finishing with a small nip on her earlobe. He smiled at the shiver than ran visibly down her spine.
She looked him in the face again, more desperate than ever. It was her turn to whisper in his ear, and she did just that. "I want you..." she said, "I need you to take me. Make me yours."
Inuyasha scooped her lovingly into his arms. He felt as though a part of him had been waiting for this.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
You live to far, away,
your voice rings like a bell anyway,
don't give up your independence,
unless it feels so right,
nothing good comes easily,
sometimes you've got to fight.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Inuyasha was barely aware of his surroundings. He felt something warm nearby, and grabbed for it instinctively, holding it to him tightly under the warmth of his sheets. Holding onto the warmth with one arm, he used to other to pull his large quilt up over his head. He wrapped his arm back around the warm thing, which fit up against him surprisingly well. He began to nod off again.
A somnolent grunt came from the warm thing, and he felt the unmistakable feel of an arm draped of his neck. He remembered the events of the night before, and smiled. Then he gave a tight squeeze to his woman. And she squeezed back. Squeezing her man.
And they belonged to each other, completely and wholly, as they lay in bed and let the soft sunlight from the small windows shine on them. They were both awake now, awake in each other's arms. And they wanted nothing more than to stay that way.

Who-oa, amber is the colour of your energy,
who-oa, shades of gold displayed naturally,
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Inuyasha sighed. His hunger was starting to get to him. He leaned back to look at Kagome. She was so peaceful there, relaxed and beautiful in an earthy sort of way. He let out another happy sigh. He hugged her tightly again.
"Time to wake up, angel," he said, sweetly and softly. She muttered for a bit, and reached out and began to scratch one of his ears. She smiled at the response he gave, a low, husky growl.
After a good fifteen minutes or so, Kagome pushed herself up on one shoulder, yawned, and asked, " Hmm, what's on the menu today, chef?"
"Omelettes?" Inuyasha answered questioningly.
"Mmm, sounds good, lover boy." And with that, they got up and went to have breakfast. Together.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Launched a thousand ships in my heart, so easy,
still it's fine from afar, and you know that,
Who-oa, brainstorm,
takes me away from the norm,
who-oa,
I got to tell ya somethin'

A/N: Dude... that was so much fun to write. I'm serious, i definitely think this is the BEST chapter so far. ^.^ So is everyone happy now that I've developed Kagome? I was gonna make it a little bit different from this, but right now I totally think that this fic so far is money. Right on the money. Oh, that was such a rush!
Ja ne!
