When He Was Mine

Chapter 34
InuYasha asked me more than once to try on the little outfit he had picked out and bought for me but I refused. If he was going to place conditions on me getting those hot Bizarre Puppets tickets, then I had the right to refuse to try on the skirt and t-shirt for him, to make him wait until the night of the concert.
I still could hardly believe he was asking me to wear it. InuYasha was jealous of what he thought of as 'his', he guarded closely and I'd witnessed his jealousy and his temper with it before. That was the main reason I didn't want to wear the outfit to the concert. Trust me, it was a racey, sexy outfit and any description I try to give wouldn't do it justice. If InuYasha thought nobody was going to gawk at me in that outfit, he was crazy!
The day of the concert finally came. I say finally because it had been heavily hyped in the press and I was greatly anticipating it. InuYasha had been granted a bit of holiday as had the rest of the guys while they were home and we spent most of the week together and always every night. To say we couldn't get enough of each other is an understatement. I think more often than not we were at each other and it was wonderful. I realized it would be very hard to get used to NOT being with him, to NOT having him in my bed once he left again.
I made him leave the apartment the day of the concert. I had instructed him NOT to pick me up until absolutely the last minute. We had backstage passes that we would be permitted to use before the concert and I found that surprisingly, I wasn't very nervous at all... just excited. Maybe having a celebrity boyfriend like InuYasha had prepared me...
I dressed slowly, doing my makeup and hair then pulling on the skirt, smoothing lotion on my bare legs, tugging on the tight, tiny t-shirt... and finally fastening strappy sandals on my feet. I stood in front of the full length mirror in my bedroom with eyes closed, took a deep breath and finally opened them, my teeth worrying my lower lip. It took a full minute for me to get the full effect of myself and I mean that in all honesty. The girl that looked back at me from the mirror was not the girl I knew as me. She looked sexy, beautiful and she stared back at me with wide, shining, excited eyes.
I let my gaze travel down my body and swallowed hard. The outfit left nothing… nothing to the imagination, and even if I do say so myself it DID look good on me and THAT surprised the hell out of me. Maybe InuYasha saw me better than I did myself after all. I heard the doorbell ring and picked up my purse going to meet him. I knew it was InuYasha, and I knew if I let him into the apartment that we would never leave for the concert on time. I knew HIM that well!
I grabbed my keys and my leather jacket buttoning it up tight. He could just wait until we reached the venue to look at me. I opened the door and quickly shut it and locked it before turning to smile at him. "In a hurry, Kagome?", he asked and smiled back. "Sort of...", I grinned and took his hand, pulling him to the car.
"Let me SEE!", he frowned and hung back dragging his feet. "See what, InuYasha?", I fudged and he frowned deeper. "Kagome!!!", he complained and I laughed. "No, InuYasha. You have to wait.", I said. "Did you wear it like I asked you to? You aren't fooling me, are you?", he asked. "No, I'd never do that to you. I have the skirt and blouse on, trust me!", I said and tried pulling him to the car again. He planted his feet and held firm. "Did you go without undies?", he asked me and grinned like a naughty school boy. "Well, I suppose you'll just have to wait and see on that one, InuYasha.", I said and let go of his hand, making my own way to the car. "Damnit, Kagome!", I heard him growl behind me and I giggled and waited for him to unlock the car door for me. I heard him whistle long and low and I turned toward him. He was still standing in the spot where I had left him, and was grinning a big cheesy grin. "Your legs... MAN! If I see nothing else but those babies tonight...", he growled playfully and walked slowly toward me. "If you see nothing else but these...", I said and struck a pose. I knew I was flirting with disaster, we were only steps outside my apartment and I would not have put it past InuYasha to sling me over his shoulder and take me inside cave man style!
"Kagome!!!", he whined and started to my side of the car. I put up my hand and he stopped and stared. "What?", he asked. "Just stay back. I know you. I know myself around you... Don't come any closer, just get in the car ON YOUR SIDE and I'll get in over here!", I said and tried to hide my smile. "Am I THAT Neanderthal?", he asked me, his eyes wide. "Erm... Yep, sometimes.", I laughed and moved to get into the car. "Well, can I at LEAST watch you get in the car?", he begged. "God, InuYasha! OK.", I said and opened the door, then put one foot inside and turning toward him. "If I didn't know better, I'd think you sexually deprived.", I said and lowered myself into the car seat. "Fuck! I HAVE been sexually deprived!!", he complained. I laughed as I watched him walk around the car, his mouth moving as he grumbled to himself.
He climbed in the car and looked at me then pointedly down at my legs. "How about you just hike that skirt up a bit and let me see your pretty bits!?", he smiled sweetly. "InuYasha, NO!", I said and he moved his hand to my knee, stroking slowly, ever so slowly up my thigh. "InuYasha, STOP IT!", I said, more forcefully and with one hand I clamped my fingers over his wrist while I reached over him to turn the key in the ignition. The car started up and he wriggled his hand around under mine until he had it loose and with a grin at me, turned to put his hands to the gear shift and the wheel.
"I hope Naraku appreciates what you've done for him.", InuYasha groused once we were on the open highway going toward the venue. "Hmmm?", I asked absently. I had been thinking of the concert as I looked out the window. "What do you mean HMMM?", InuYasha asked and reached over to gently pull on my hair. I immediately slapped at his hand and he laughed, looking back at the road. "Stop messing with me, InuYasha. You're the one that bought this outfit, and you're the one that asked me- NO, excuse that- TOLD me to wear it, remember?", I said. He looked at me and winked. "I'm only joking with you!", he said and I shook my head at him and looked back out the window.
Truth was I WAS a bit worried about InuYasha and how he would react. I knew his jealousy, knew his temper, but I had been unable to persuade him to change his mind about the outfit and my wearing it to the venue. Don't get me wrong. I have never and didn't then think I was some gorgeous bombshell that Naraku wouldn't be able to keep his hands off of, but I DID realize how I looked in the skirt and top InuYasha had picked out, and I knew there was a very good chance to strike up a conversation with Naraku once I got to meet the Bizarre Puppets. I just hoped InuYasha realized what he was doing and could hold himself in check. I, for one, was not looking forward to calming him down IF something were to piss him off.
We neared the arena and InuYasha pulled in to VIP parking. Because Wild Silver had played the venue many times, he was aware of all the 'underground' tunnels and entrances. We parked and InuYasha smiled at me and got out of the car, walking quickly around it to open my door for me. I stuck one foot out and happened to glance at him and saw again his hungry gaze on my legs. "InuYasha, for God's sake, please. You're making me all nervous here staring at me like that!", I said as I let my other foot join the first outside the car.
"Jeez, Kagome, just let me have one, just one glance at you before we go inside... Please!", he begged and I shook my head. "Why the fuck not? Are you saving yourself for Naraku?", he asked me and I reached my hands up and out for him. He took them and pulled me from the car and into his arms. "You're trying to make me all jealous, Kagome?", he asked huskily as his lips found my neck. "No, InuYasha, I'm not. Just be patient!", I said weakly. I knew if he ever got started on me that I was a goner and I didn't want to miss this show or the chance to meet The Bizarre Puppets.
"Fine. In we'll go. Are you ready?", he asked me and I smiled at him and nodded. He took me inside the door and we started our way down a maze of hallways and through doors. Soon, we came to a door with Security posted outside it and InuYasha stopped short. "This is it, Kagome.", he said and smiled at the guy guarding the dressing room door. "Hi, InuYasha. How's things?", the man smiled and then looked at me. "This guy is trouble. What's a pretty girl like you doing with him?", he asked and then started to laugh. InuYasha punched him playfully in the arm and hooked an arm around my waist. "Don't believe anything he says.", InuYasha laughed and kissed my cheek. "You're here to see the band?", he asked InuYasha and InuYasha nodded and pointed at me. "She's a fan.", he offered. "Nice lot, those guys... go ahead, InuYasha, take her in.", he said.
We moved inside the doorway and InuYasha put a gentle hand to my back and guided me forward into the room. I saw lots of people and looked around the room for a familiar Bizarre Puppet face. The first face we saw was Kagura's and InuYasha poked me in the ribs with his elbow and nodded toward her. Kagura spotted InuYasha and walked over quickly. Wild Silver had toured with them when they had just started out and though the two bands didn't keep in constant contact, they did run into each other on occasion. Kagura hugged InuYasha enthusiastically and then turned to me.
InuYasha introduced me and I got a hug from her with Hiten and Hakudoushi soon walking up. InuYasha had told me he liked Kagura the best of all them, she was really good with the bass, though he liked the lot of them. I just had a feeling Naraku wasn't his very favorite. It was nothing he said, more how he acted or spoke of Naraku. I was introduced to Hiten and Hakudoushi and then InuYasha was pulled into a major conversation with the two of them as my eyes wandered the room. We were standing near a wall and I leaned against it and pulled my leg up at the knee, letting my foot rest against the wall... just looking around, enjoying the scenery and the conversation going on around me.
Have you ever felt like someone's eyes were on you? Like you knew you were being watched... looked at?
That's how I first was introduced to Naraku. I felt eyes on me and I turned to look curious. Auburn eyes and long dark hair... tall... that's the first impression I got. Huge smile next and I swallowed and blinked. InuYasha's back was to me and he was still very much into his conversation with the other band members as Naraku walked over to me. His eyes traveled over me. I felt my body grow warm with it and I looked down and back up with a smile I couldn't hide.
"Hi. Who do YOU belong to?", Naraku grinned as he walked up beside of me and leaned back against the wall. "I... I'm here with InuYasha...", I said and looked over to where InuYasha was. "InuYasha?", Naraku said and his smile faltered just a bit, but I saw it. "InuYasha? InuYasha Hara from Wild Silver, is that so?", Naraku asked and looked over to InuYasha. "Yes, that's right. InuYasha Hara.", I said and smiled. InuYasha turned at the mention of his name and smiled at me before he glanced over next to me and saw Naraku. I saw his smile falter a bit too and realized at that moment that he would be a problem I'd have to deal with once we got back to my place after the concert.
My InuYasha was jealous.
I could see it.
I could feel it.
InuYasha and Naraku looked at each other, they seemed to size each other up. I wondered if it was just me and my over active imagination... but then I saw the looks that passed between them and groaned inwardly.
InuYasha's arm immediately went around my waist, pulling me back against him and away from the wall... and Naraku. I felt his hands encircle my waist and link around the front of me, resting on my tummy. "Hi, InuYasha. I was just meeting your girl... Or are you just friends?", Naraku asked and I felt InuYasha stiffen behind me. "No, she's my girl, Naraku. This is Kagome.", InuYasha said and kissed my cheek. "Then hello, Kagome... InuYasha's girl.", Naraku said and smiled at me.
"Hi, Naraku.", I said and smiled back. He was so hot! And I couldn't believe I was meeting him. His eyes looked me over once more and I was happy that I hadn't shed my jacket just yet. I'd have died if I'd had to feel his eyes on my outfit... my body.
Just then Kagura walked back over to us as InuYasha suggested we go into the arena and find our seats before the lights dimmed. "InuYasha, how about you and Kagome meet us back at THE CLUB when the concert is over. It's the last night and we're having a party to celebrate! Would you both join us?", she asked. I saw Naraku's smile and felt InuYasha's body stiffen again behind me, his arms tighten around my waist.
"Sure, Kagura. We'll be there, thanks for the invitation.", InuYasha said and then stepped to my side, his arm still looped around my waist. "We should be going to find our seats, guys.", InuYasha smiled. "Sure, go ahead. Enjoy the show and thanks for coming!", she smiled. I thanked the guys for meeting us and turned to go but heard Naraku say something. Turning back toward him, I smiled and waited. "What did you say, Naraku? I'm sorry, I didn't hear you.", I said.
InuYasha's arm had slipped from my waist and I felt his hand reach for and grab my own.
"I said I'll catch you at the party.", Naraku grinned and winked. "We'll be there.", I said and turned back toward InuYasha... an unsmiling InuYasha now.
We left the dressing area and made our way through the hallways once more to go to our seats in the arena. InuYasha was silent as we made our way back and I didn't say anything either. He led me out a door and into the concert hall, my hand tucked securely inside his own. He was noticed at once by several female fans and we were soon surrounded with them. InuYasha signed autographs and passed out hugs until Security helped us out and led us to our seats.
I stood and took off my jacket, turning to place it on my seat behind me and my eyes caught InuYasha's. He was standing next to me, helping me with my jacket and as he took it from me, his eyes moved over me from head to toe. "Dear God, Kagome...", he said softly and a smile lit his face. "Dear God? Is that good, InuYasha?", I asked and started to sit. "Oh... wow! You look fantastic, absolutely FIT!", he grinned from ear to ear. "Well, thanks. Thank you, InuYasha.", I said and sat down, crossing one leg over the other. He took his seat next to me and put an arm around me, leaning in close to whisper in my ear.
"I can tell you right now, you won't get any rest from me tonight. Damn! Fuck! Just looking at you...", he whispered in my ear and I felt the soft wetness of his hot tongue as he gently probed at my ear lobe. "Promise me that?", I asked him and he laughed softly in my ear making me shiver.
We sat through two group's performances before Bizarre Puppets took the stage and the lights were dimmed dramatically. For most of the show, the crowd stood on it's feet and InuYasha and I found ourselves on our feet as well.
A break came in the middle of the show, then the lights dimmed once more. The band came out onto the stage and I heard the opening bars of Feed My Frankenstein. As I watched, Naraku came to the edge of the stage nearest us and stopped in front of me. He stuck out an arm and pointed straight at me and smiled.
"Me?", I mouthed and he nodded and laughed. I looked back at InuYasha and he looked at me. "Can I? Is it…?", I asked and he laughed and nodded pushing me forward, toward the stage. I walked up the steps and Naraku reached out his hand for me as I made it up onto the stage. Holding hands, and he led me to the center of the stage. I stood and waited.
The song is one of my favorites, I listened to it as I studied most of the time. I laughed as Naraku turned toward me with a pelvic thrust aimed my way, then he started to sing the song.
Well, I ain't evil, I'm just good lookin'
Start a little fire, and baby start cookin'
I'm a hungry man
But I don't want pizza
I'll blow down your house
And then I'm gonna eat ya
Bring you to a simmer
Right on time
Run my greasy fingers
Up your greasy spine
Feed my Frankenstein
Meet my libido
He's a psycho
Feed my Frankenstein
Hungry for love
And it's feeding time
You don't want to talk
So baby shut up
And let me drink the wine from your fur tea cup
Velcro candy, sticky sweet
Make my tattoos melt in the heat
Well, I ain't no veggie
Like my flesh on the bone
Alive and lickin' on your ice cream coneFeed my Frankenstein
Meet my libido
He's a psycho
Feed my Frankenstein
Hungry for love
And it's feeding timeIt was then that I realized the words of the song and I had no desire to seek out InuYasha's gaze from the front row. Jeez! Naraku couldn't have planned a better tactic to piss InuYasha off than what he was doing now but I believed it was all innocent fun, only InuYasha would NOT see it that way.
The song soon ended and Pour Some Sugar On Me started. I was surprised I had not been led offstage before the song started. I saw him smile at me and took my hand.
"Ohhhhh shit...", I said under my breath. I'd caught InuYasha's stare from the corner of my eye and it wasn't a happy one. Naraku sang his verse and kissed my hand and the song ended with him leading me down the stage and off the steps with a kiss to my cheek. He squeezed my hand and whispered in my ear. "Killer-ass outfit, Kagome. DAMN!", before I moved away from him and he patted my bum as I turned and walked down the steps.
InuYasha's eyes shot fire at me as I made my way back to him and my seat. I could see very well that Naraku had truly pissed off InuYasha. "Nice job, Kagome.", he said through clenched teeth and I looked at him worried. "Why didn't he just fuck you on stage?", he growled and I punched him in the arm. "Stop!", I said and sank down into my seat. For the remainder of the show, InuYasha sat and I know he was trying his best to act unconcerned in front of the crowd as well as Naraku, but I knew InuYasha better and I knew he was raging underneath his cool facade.
The concert ended, the house lights went on and we moved toward the private VIP exit to the car.
I figured InuYasha would head toward the apartment but he was soon driving toward THE CLUB deadly silent. "Erm... InuYasha?", I asked and he looked straight ahead silent. "Where are you going?", I asked. He turned his golden eyes to me and then back to the road. "You know quite fucking well where we're headed. Why don't I just do you a favor and drop you off at the door? I'm sure Naraku is waiting for you!", he bit off. "Take me home, InuYasha.", I said.
"No", he answered and proceeded to park the car. "No?", I asked and he simply nodded. "Fine! Then YOU can go in alone, I'm not going.", I said and crossed my arms in front of me, turning away from him and toward the window. InuYasha opened his door and got out slamming it. I was so angry at him at the moment. It had been HIM that had insisted on my outfit... HIM that had gotten me the tickets and taken me to the show as well as taken me to meet the guys. He had even been the one to push me toward the stage when Naraku had asked me up.
I hoped he WOULD go on inside without me to the party because at that moment I was really angry with him. If he knew me as well as he thought he did, he would know it was best to leave me alone.
But...
My car door was soon jerked open as he reached inside and hauled me to my feet by my elbow. I sputtered at him, unable to even form the words that had come to my lips. He slammed my car door and pushed me up against it. "You ARE going in to that party and you ARE going to have a good time.", he said, his face inches from mine. "Just who the hell do you think you ARE, InuYasha?", I said back and stood my ground. If he wanted me inside he would have to pick me up and take me in there.
I saw him take a deep breath, saw the struggle for control of his temper on his face and waited. I loved InuYasha, even an angry InuYasha, so I waited for him to control himself and say what he had to say. It was probably the hardest thing I'd ever done because I so wanted to have it out with him but I knew deep down where he was coming from and what he was struggling with; plus I could very well see that Naraku had done a bit of a job on me just for InuYasha's benefit.
"I'm sorry, Kagome.", he said softly and looked into my eyes. His hand had found mine and he was rubbing his thumb gently across the top of it. "I'm so damned fucking mad right now. We should probably go back to your place... but we're not. I'm gonna learn how to deal with this. You did nothing wrong, it's just hard for me to see anybody touch you... or hold you. I want you all to myself. Since I found you, I'm thinking you'll easily slip away. I suppose nobody has stuck with me for long since Wild Silver became famous. Sometimes it's just too much to ask for a girl to stick by you, do you understand?", he asked me.
How could I NOT understand? How could I refuse the look in those beautiful eyes of his?
"Oh InuYasha, honey. Of course I do but you really have no need to worry so much about ME!", I cried. "I'm satisfied, more than happy with what you and I have found and I take it all one day at a time. You're the one that I think will stray... So many opportunities come your way with women and you being away from me a lot... It has to be hard on you.", I said. He pulled me to him and held me tight, picking me up off my feet.
"Kagome, I'm sorry.", he said and rocked me back and forth. "It's OK, InuYasha, really. Now why don't we go home, ok? It's no big deal, and I'd rather be with you alone, anyway.", I said. He pulled back from me and smiled. "Me too, but I wanted this for you and now I feel like I've ruined it. You were so sexy up on that stage it nearly killed me! And you were having so much fun. I'm gonna make this scene I've caused up to you. Let's go to the party.", he said. "Only if you're sure!", I said and squeezed his hand. "I am. Let's go." he said and leaned forward. His soft lips covered mine in a sweet, warm kiss and I melted against him, feeling his hands reach up and softly rub against my breasts.
"Ahhhhh, so sweet.", he sighed as his fingers traced across my now erect nipples. How could he ever doubt my feelings for him? It made me nearly crazy with want when he even slightly touched me.
"Ok. Ok, I'll stop.", he said and looked down at me. "I never told you to.", I answered back. It was true, I wanted to go home and be with him... just him...
"But I will, at least for now. C'mon Kagome, this is your night. Let's go party.", he said and with that he took my hand and led me toward the entrance of THE CLUB.
