When He Was Mine

Chapter 19
I woke up in a panic and couldn't figure out why, looking around me in the dark, I couldn't see anything that looked familiar to me and I struggled in the blanket that had somehow wrapped itself around my legs. Warm arms pulled me tight and it still took me a minute to realize I was with InuYasha... with InuYasha, in his friend's apartment, in the middle of the night... or in the very early morning, at least.
"Kagome...", he mumbled and pulled a leg across my lower body to keep me still and close to him. In effect, drawing me toward his own body. We were both still naked and I knew he was just barely awake. I relaxed, knowing where I was and who I was with helped. Then I chanced a look at the glow on my watch face and saw it was nearly 4:00am. I moaned... why did time seem to fly when I was with him? Why couldn't I just stay with him? I was sure Kikyo had spent her share of overnight trips with him.
"What is it, Kagome?", he mumbled as his hands moved down my belly and to my center. Willingly, I spread my legs... helpless NOT to as his fingers searched and stroked and he nuzzled my neck with his lips. "Inu, it's nearly 4:00am. I gotta get home...", I whispered into the darkness of the room. "Noooooo... let's just stay like this, please...", I heard him mutter and so I threw all caution to the wind and turned toward him, pulling his face into my hands and trying to see him in the darkness of the room. "Is that YOU, InuYasha?", I asked softly, teasing him as my hands moved over his face from his brow, to his cheekbones, over his nose and then to his soft, full lips. " It's me...", he mumbled and bit my finger as it ran along those soft lips.
"I can't see you...", I whispered again and felt his hands moved to my bum and press me closer to him. "You don't need to SEE me, Kagome... just FEEL me..", he whispered into my ear, his warm breath making me shiver. He pulled my thigh over his hip and nudged himself up against me close. His body pressed tightly to mine, he moaned softly and pulled me to him, holding me close. "Do you really have to go, Kagome? why can't you just stay here?", he whispered. "You know the answer there, InuYasha. If they get up, mom and dad, and I'm not there… and then I drive up with you there will be no question of where I was, nor what I was doing with you...", I smiled and kissed him.
"This is crazy, nuts, pure torture...", he groaned. "But InuYasha, it's only been... what? two days?", I said and giggled. "Two days me ass!", he grumbled. "You think I've only had you on my mind for two days? please! Kagome. It's been nearly two MONTHS now...!", he cried. "Oh InuYasha, poor deprived baby... I'm so sorry for you, no girls at all to satisfy the desire and need building in your body... what must we do?", I teased. "You know very well what we have to do... and lots of it before I leave you on Friday...", he said and spanked my bum. "I have to go to school today and check my scheduling. I'll start back soon...", I said and moved up off him to sit up in bed. "You'll have me a walking zombie before long!", I said and rubbed my eyes with my fists, pulling my fingers then back thru my tangled hair. "As long as you're a walking, satisfied, sexy zombie!", he grinned.
I groaned and moved off the bed, picking up my scattered clothing and going into the bathroom to clean up and get dressed. I could hear him muttering to himself as I did my business but I didn't listen too close to him. All I could make out was my name a couple of times and the grumpy sound of his voice. I smiled into the mirror and then ran water into the sink and splashed my face. In ten minutes, I was cleaned up and re-dressed and I wandered into the living room to find him pulling on his trainers.
"I'll call you this afternoon, OK?', he said as he looked up at me. "Yes, that's fine...", I said ."Dinner tonight?", he laughed. "Maybe... depends on how tired you've made me..", I smiled and walked over to him. "If you were here all the time, we wouldn't have to...", he started. "InuYasha, remember what I said. I'll think about it and we'll decide when you get back from this tour and promotion what to do, ok? There's just not enough time right now to do all that thinking and planning and believe me, I have lots of thinking and planning to do.", I said. "Do you mean it takes THAT much thought to think about whether you want to stay with me or not... to have our own time and space?', he frowned. I leaned down to kiss him quickly and he grabbed my hand. "Answer me, Kagome...", he said firmly. "I... well... YES, InuYasha; it does. I'm sorry, but it does. I can't just jump at that after two days of US. I mean, what sense would that make? And my family, things have to be done the right way... how about YOUR family? I mean, don't you understand? We can't just DO this without question!", I said and he frowned deeper and looked hard at the floor.
"You DO understand, don't you InuYasha?", I said softly. "Yes, I do... I just...", he started and I smiled. He was like an impatient little boy, that was exactly what he reminded me of at that moment. His lip pushed out, his brow furrowed in a frown, his apparent refusal to meet my eyes. "InuYasha Hara, what a beautiful angry little boy you must have made!", I laughed and pulled on his lower lip. "Any further and I could walk back home on this one!", I laughed. He had no choice but to look at me and smile then and he was even more beautiful when he smiled.
"Take me home, InuYasha. It's getting later and later...", I said and kissed him quickly on the mouth once more. He moved off the sofa and grabbed his keys off the table then holding the door for me, locked it behind us and grabbed my hand as we walked into the quiet darkness of the early morning. I sat on my side of the car, my head pressed against the cool, clear glass, eyes closed. I wanted to make him happy but I was going to have to watch it. It would be way too easy to lose myself, my own identity to InuYasha. He was that strong a personality; and he affected me that much! He was unlike any other person I had ever known... or ever would.
He reached over and squeezed my shoulder and I turned to look at him. "What are you thinking?", he asked and motioned for me to move against him. "Nothing special, just about how much needs to be done today on about... well... erm... let's see...", and I looked at my watch. "about three hours sleep...", I smiled and yawned. He put his arm around my shoulder and eased my head down against him so that I could rest. "It's easy to forget that you aren't used to running on so little sleep, Kagome. You'll have to remind me...", he said and stroked his hand up and down my arm until I fell into a light doze.
We were pulling quietly into my drive when I lifted my head from his shoulder and he put the car in park and turned in his seat toward me. "I want to see you tonight. Do you think there's any way you could make some excuse? Anything? just so we can spend the night together? All night. I need you all night with me once more before we go back out on the road... please, Kagome. I wouldn't ask you otherwise...", he said and his hands moved up to my jaw, stroking it softly as his mouth met mine and he kissed me deeply, his tongue probing my lips into my mouth, sliding in and out of it. "InuYashaaahhhh...", I sighed, breathless. Could I never control what effect he had on my body?
"Just say yes. Think of something, please...", he begged and he grabbed my hand and put it over the crotch of his jeans. "I want you... so bad...", he moaned as his mouth searched again for mine. "Ok... Ok. I'll think of something, I promise. Just give me some time and call me late this afternoon, ok?", I whispered into his ear as soon as the kiss ended. "Promise?", he asked me, grabbing both my hands and kissing them. "On my heart, InuYasha... on my heart...", I said and opened the car door. "Talk with you later?", he said softly as he held to my hand. "Sure, just call...", I said and pulled my hand from his grasp, backing away from him and off the seat. I softly shut the car door and walked around in front of it, waving my fingers at him and blowing him a kiss. He caught the kiss and pressed his fingers to his mouth making me laugh. Sentimental and romantic…? nah! Hot and ready was more like it. I shivered when I remembered the feel of him inside his jeans just now... hard, hot, and ready....!
I heard his car drive off slowly as I went inside the house, everything dark, everything quiet. I made my way slowly upstairs and to my room opening and then closing the door behind me and locking it. I had no more turned toward my bed, when the soft light of my bedside lamp flicked on and I fought the scream that threatened to burst from my throat.
"Slut...", Kikyo spat at me and I flinched. She was sitting in the middle of my bed, fully awake, apparently waiting for me. "Get out of here, Kikyo. I don't feel like another row with you, please..", I said wearily and started for my bathroom to shower and dress.
"You met InuYasha last night, didn't you Kagome?", she asked and then laughed. "You actually snuck out of here and went to fuck him, didn't you?", she said, her big eyes glittering. "No, Kikyo. I didn't. InuYasha and I played Monopoly all night...", I said sarcastically. I was so tired of this, so very tired. "Cute, Kagome... very cute. Isn't he fabulous in bed, though?", she sighed and stretched out on my bed. "Isn't he such a good fuck?", she asked and closed her eyes, smiling. "He loves for me to touch him, you know when I go down...", she started.
"Stop it, Kikyo. Just stop it! The operative word here and you used the WRONG one as a matter of fact is 'loves'. He no longer 'loves' for YOU to do anything to or with him, got it?", I said and went to grab my robe off the bed. Her hand snaked out and grabbed my wrist, giving it a painful twist. "Don't mess around with me, little sister...", she said lowly. "I'd never dream of it...", I bit back.
"You should just step back and let InuYasha and I work out what was obviously a misunderstanding. What we have is good, very good. He wouldn't want to give it up. I'm sure of that and you're just a temporary diversion to him anyway... Look how soon he fucked you, look how he's treating you now… like some kind of whore, asking you to meet him and sneak off? Is that how you WANT it?", she asked me.
"I don't have to explain anything to you, Kikyo... ANYTHING about InuYasha or me, or US... NOTHING! Got it!?", I said and went into my bathroom to take my shower. I let the water roll off of my body as I cried. How she knew to get to me every time, I don't know but she did. And it cut me to the quick, cut me deeply. In my heart, I felt like... FELT like... I KNEW what InuYasha and I had started was more than what she made it sound like. But when she put it out on the table as she had it sounded so, so WRONG, so matter of fact... so naughty.
And I knew, God how I knew the way my body reacted to him. It wasn't all pure and innocent. I'd NEVER let anyone affect me like him, never allowed anybody to touch or see me like he did, never talked the way I talked or acted the way I did with anyone except InuYasha. He made me feel reckless, on the edge, sexy. Like a totally different person, somebody I had never been and I liked it. Maybe that's why I felt so strange... because I WAS so different with him.
I finished my shower, got dressed, grabbed my back pack and cell phone, sticking a change of clothes into the pack and made my way downstairs for coffee. I was glad to see Kikyo was gone... An early call somewhere I was sure...
I opened the front door and grabbed the newspaper off the porch, then went to the kitchen and poured myself a cup of coffee, sitting at the table to read. My mom and dad woke soon after and came down together. My dad giving me a kiss on the head, my mom saying a quiet 'good morning' to me. "Do you want breakfast, Kagome?", she asked me. "No, no thanks, Mom... I have to be at school first thing and I'll stop by for a bagel, meet the girls... maybe have a latte...", I said as I finished my coffee.
She nodded and proceeded to fix my Dad his usual morning fare and I got up and grabbed my keys and my pack, headed for the door. Almost as an afterthought, I turned and smiled. "Oh, by the way. I'll be staying over at Sango's this evening. We've some catching up to do...", I said and my Dad smiled and nodded. My mom, looking over his head at me with a slight frown. "I thought your Dad said you were going with InuYasha to some kind of studio behind the scenes thing...", she said. "Not tonight, maybe tomorrow. He has to leave on Friday so probably tomorrow. Just call me on my mobile if you need me...", I said and swung out the door to my car.
Funny thing was. I didn't feel guilty at all about the lie. Only mad that I had to have a lie in order to do what Kikyo could do every day. I started my car and backed out of the garage then picked up my cell and dialed Sango's number. I had to remember to call her and let her in on my 'plans' just in case she might call my house in the meantime. She answered her mobile on the second ring and I smiled when I heard her sing-song voice over the phone.
"Sango, hi… It's me, Kagome...", I said. "SWEETHEART!...", she sang and I grinned. "Come by here and pick my sorry ass UP. I NEED to SEE you... I've MISSED you and we have classes to see to today. As well as breakfast, c'mon!", she laughed and I agreed, told her I'd be there in a few minutes, and rang off.
I had it taken care of. When he called I'd be ready to tell him that tonight was set and I'd be in his arms all night long. It was a prospect I looked forward to...
