Previously, On Punk Mikos And Demonic Preps: A man stepped out of the shadows ahead of them, walking into the light from a streetlamp. He had short black hair and dark blue eyes. His skins was unnaturally white, and he grinned cruelly.

"Hello, Kagome. Long time, no see, to use a clichŽ.

Of Punk Mikos And Demonic Preps

Chapter Thirteen

Kiss Me

Kagome sucked in her breath. No no no no no no no! He was not supposed to be here. He couldn't be!

Inuyasha looked at Kagome. She was stiff as a board, her heart rate speeding up dangerously.

The silver looked back at the man who had spoken. He was still smiling creepily.

"Who the hell are you?!" Inuyasha was immediately on the defensive.

The man looked to Inuyasha. "Really, it should be I who asks that question. Only without the rather explosive language.

Inuyasha was surprised to hear the faint growl coming from Kagome, despite the heavy scent of fear surrounding her.

"Get the fuck away from me, you sick bastard." Kagome looked like she was about to hurl her skateboard at the strange man.

"Oh, Kagome, I'm hurt. What a welcome home, eh?

"This isn't your home!" Kagome's voice had risen, and her miko powers were lashing out blindly, unnoticed by the girl. Inuyasha let his aura brush hers, to try to calm it down, but instead, her energy wrapped around his, drawing strength. "Leave, Naraku! I've had enough of your bullshit! Get out of my life!!" Kagome was screaming by the time she hit the word Ôbullshit'.

The man named Naraku smiled. "I've missed you, koishii.

Inuyasha had had enough as well. "Look, get the fuck away from her before I make you!

Naraku scanned the hanyou. It was obvious that he could not take him on, weakened as he was. He turned back to Kagome. "Until later, koishii." Naraku melted back into the shadows, even his scent dissipating as if it had never been there. Inuyasha found that disconcerting. If he could mask his scent, then he could strike at any time.

Inuyasha realized he was thinking as if Naraku was an enemy, the way his brother had taught him. He was an enemy, but Inuyasha wanted to kill him. Not normal feelings.

The silver haired man shook off these thoughts and turned back to Kagome.

"You okay?

"I'm fine." Her words were clipped, cold. She kept her gaze away from him.

"Right. Once more, with less feeling.

Kagome turned to him, and he could see fear in her eyes. Inuyasha decided immediately that he never wanted to see fear there again.

Against his better judgment and knowing he would probably be black and blue after, Inuyasha pulled Kagome into a loose hug.

To his immense surprise and shock, Kagome hugged him back, clutching him like a lifeline. With her pressed up against him so intimately, he could feel her shaking. Her breath was ragged, and the heady scent of fear surrounded her.

Inuyasha ran his hand comfortingly up and down her back, swaying slightly. He froze when he felt her lips on his collar. She continued placing soft kisses on his collarbone and neck, ignoring the way his hands had frozen on her back.

Realizing what she was doing, Kagome froze as well. Her brain had taken a walk, leaving Kagome in Inuyasha's arms, inhaling the incredibly intoxicating scent that was Inuyasha. Next thing she knew, she was kissing his neck!

Kagome pulled away slightly. "AhÉsorry. Dunno know what I was doing, really, just got carried away, and, um, sorry-

"Shut up.

"Right. Er, I'll go home now. Yeah, that's a good ide-" Inuyasha cut off her nervous babbling by pulling her towards him and planting his mouth right over hers. Kagome thought fleetingly that she would like to be shut up like that more often before the intensity of the kiss took over her mind. It was like nothing she had ever experienced before, blinding heat and unbridled passion.

When Inuyasha pulled back, it took all Kagome's willpower not to jump him right there. She looked up at him. His eyes were hooded, and there was a faint blush on his cheeks. He mumbled something, but Kagome wasn't paying attention. She was focused on his lips, looking swollen and thoroughly kissable. She realized he was looking at her with an expectant expression.

"I'm sorry, what?

"I asked you if you would be okay walking home.

"Oh. Oh, yeah. Fine.

Inuyasha noticed she was still staring at his mouth with a hungry look on her face.

"I should be getting home." Kagome nodded in agreement.

"Me too." Neither one moved. "In a minute.

She pulled him back down for another bruising kiss, fingers tangling in his hair. Both were panting when they broke apart.

"Ok. Good to go now.

Inuyasha nodded breathlessly. "G'night.

"G'night.

They turned abruptly from each other and took off in opposite directions. Kagome nearly fell off her board as she remembered their little encounter. By all the gods, he was a good kisser! Her knees were pudding just thinking about it.

When she got home, she went straight to her room after saying hi to her mother. She changed into a pair of loose pants and a bra and collapsed onto her bed.

She dreamed of spiders.

Kagome's mother Taka looked up as her daughter stumbled into the kitchen, her hair sticking up and a terry cloth bathrobe wrapped around her slim form.

"Good morning, boo.

"Mornin' okaa-san.

"How was you're day yesterday? I came up last night and you were out like a light.

"Oh, fun. We skated and met up with some guys from school. Went out for-" she yawned, "fries and sodas. Fun, fun, fun.

Taka chuckled. "Glad you had a good time. I suggest you eat and get ready before you're late for school.

Kagome nodded and wolfed down her miso and rice, bounded up the stairs with newfound energy and got dressed.

She had been avoiding thoughts of Inuyasha all morning. When she had woken up, her head had been full of silver hair and amber eyes. She nearly fell out of her bed when she remembered Naraku. Kagome almost couldn't believe she had forgotten all about him. Then again, that was what Inuyasha's kisses did. They made her forget everything except him.

A dangerous thought.

How was she going to act when she saw him? How was he going to act? Were they going to pretend nothing happened, or were they going to smush their faces together the second they saw each other?

Whoops, thought Kagome. She had almost hit another car, she was so lost in daydreams.

Inuyasha, do you have any idea what you do to me?
