Yash stood up slowly and tried to clear his fuzzy head. "Damn, my head hurts." he mumbled as he looked over to where Sango was checking Kag over. "How is she?" he asked still angry that Sess hurt her and he didn't to hit him for it.

He knew Sess had the right to fight her and was reluctantly grateful that he tended to the wounds he had inflicted on Kag. He knew Sess wouldn't have killed her but hurt her some. He didn't think he would hurt her this badly though.

Sango looked up at him "She looks like she's going to be fine. Sesshomaru did a good job of fixing up her injuries and once she wakes up, she'll be good as new." she told him, relieved that her sister was going to okay and back with them where she belonged.

"She can't stay here with the place in the shape it's in and the windows all busted up from last night. I'll call some construction guys I know to start the repairs. You guys look like the night of the living dead. Go home, get some sleep and meet me at the Bakuryuuha at 10 tonight. I'll take Kag to my place." Yash told them.

Happy that his Kag was back safe and going to be okay he said his goodbyes to Miroku and Sango. They all agreed to get some much needed rest and meet back at the club. After the couple left, he took a moment to look the place over and cringed when really saw all the damage. 'Oh man, she is so gonna be pissed when she sees this!' he thought as he made his way to her sleeping form.

"Time to go home, Kag girl." he smiled as he lifted her into his arms. Cuddling her close he called forth his concealment spell and headed out the door and to his silver Porsche. Sess's scent still lingered on her and he did not like that one bit. 'I'll fix that later.' he mentally grumbled.

On the way over, Yash's thoughts continued to churn about the whole Sess & Kag situation. He didn't like the fact that Sess kissed his Kag, even if it wasn't physically. He and Kag were the best of friends even though romantically it didn't work out. He would always love her but he didn't like the idea of anyone else having her either, especially his brother or that damn wolf that was always sniffing around her. He felt a little guilty at his selfishness but Kag deserved better than those assholes.

They arrived at his condo and he carried her through the lobby and up to the top floor. His condo pretty much consisted of the entire fourteeth floor. He had someone else decorate the place and told them the colors he wanted which consisted of silvers, reds and black. They just put a bunch of expensive stuff that looked nice in it and he lived there. Of course, he liked it though, but wouldn't tell them that.

Unlocking his door, he entered the foyer and shut the door gently behind him so he wouldn't wake Kag. Kicking off his shoes he made a beeline for his bedroom and dropped the concealment spell on the way there. Entering his room, Yash laid her on the black silk sheets and removed her shoes and jeans. He looked in his dresser and found a large red t-shirt to dress her in for now. Focusing on the task at hand he held his breath and removed the bloody shirt she had on, or what was left of it. Whimpering he closed his eyes for a moment at the sight of her clad only in her bra and panties.

She was so beautiful and her body was perfect in everyway. His eyes roamed over the lush curves that contoured her and he felt himself become aroused. 'SHIT! I should be over this by now!' he mentally groaned. With shaky hands he dressed her in the shirt he had found for her, careful not to agitate her injured arm. He sighed in relief once he was done. His desire for her still lingered even though they agreed to just stay friends. He just couldn't help it.

His gaze locked on her oblivious form once again and his eyes softened at the angelic picture she made. Taking a deep breath he lay down beside her and spooned her body to his. He wrapped his arms around her waist holding tightly against him. Burying his face in her hair he inhaled her scent deeply. He smirked as his noticed his brother's scent had faded and was replaced by his. He savored this moment with her and kissed the back of her neck. Snuggling up to her he smiled as he let sleep claim his exhausted mind.

A warmth enveloped her body as she slowly cracked open one eye. Her first thought was that she was not in her own room. She tensed at the second when she realized there was a very hard body pressed tightly against her back and strong arms pinning her close. 'What the hell?' she thought as felt the aura surround her, tentatively she allowed her senses to touch it. Her body relaxed some when she realized it was Yash cuddling her so close. A small smile graced her lips as she thought of all the times she would wake like this with him. 'I wonder why I'm here...'

She frowned trying to remember how she ended up at his place and she was still groggy from sleep. Then it hit her full force. Sesshomaru and the fight with him in the forest! He had attacked her relentlessly and his eyes had glowed red with rage. Her eyes widened, she was now fully awake and shot up out of Yash's arms. Her body trembled in anger at the memory.

'That asshole! How could he have moved that fast? I couldn't even sense him!' her thoughts angered her even more as she remembered all of the details of their fight. She could still feel pain from the wounds in her arm and side, even though they seemed to have mostly healed. Her body was aching from the abuse it had endured earlier that morning. 'I barely even hurt him and he mauled me! Grrrrrrr...'

She was angry at herself for not being strong enough yet again to protect herself from harm. Her pride had been trampled by an aristocratic, arrogant dog demon shithead! Then she allowed him to kiss her, again! Her anger flared again as she remembered that kiss. What angered her the most about it was that she enjoyed it and had willingly kissed him back! 'Damn him!'

Yash growled when the comforting warmth he had been holding on to suddenly left him. His sleep hazed mind sensed Kag was awake and the scent of her anger and trembling body caused him to open his eyes with concern. She had her back to him and he could literally see her angered aura as if she were engulfed by the sun. Worried, he gently wrapped his arms around her and pulled her back against him. Nuzzling his face into the back of her neck he began a soft growl that he knew would soothe her.

Kagome squeaked when she felt Yash pull her back down to him. She heard and felt a soft purr vibrating from his chest. He always knew how to calm her mind and spirit. Slowly, her anger began to fade as she listened to the soothing sound and smiled. 'No matter how much of an ass he can be, he has always taken care of me.' She thought as her hand came up to rub the base of his ear.

"Yash, why am I in your bed, at your place and not in my own?" she asked as she turned in his arms. The purr she was enjoying was abruptly cut off and she felt his body tense. Frowning she looked into his eyes and searched for an answer.

"Well... aaahhhhh... HEY! You hardly had any walls or windows left after you were attacked by that evil spirit thing and you blew Sess through a wall! Like you would've wanted to wake up to that mess you left!" he inwardly grinned. 'Ha! Now I won't get in trouble for the holes I made since SHE'S the one who did most of the damage!'

Kag groaned as she vaguely remembered some of the damage that she inflicted upon her beloved apartment. 'I can't believe all of this is happening to me! First Kouga and his advances, then the ass wipe Ice Prince and his all high and mighty attitude, then that stupid evil spirit thing attacking my mind.... Geeez! AND THAT DAMN DOG SHIT KICKED MY ASS! Could this day get any worse?' she wondered.

"Um, Yash, I need a shower. My head is killing me and, damn, what time is it?" she panicked some knowing that the bar should've been opened. "I hope Sango opened the Shikon up for me!" she worried.

"Kag, the is not opening up this weekend. You really don't remember the damage you caused, do you?" Yash tilted his head with a curious look in his eyes. "Most of the damage was to your apartment but we need to have the bar area ceiling checked in case you messed anything up there. Wouldn't want the ceiling falling in on the customers or you going through floor one night."

"Oh man!" she sighed as she sat up in bed. "Well, do you still have some of my clothes here?"

"Yeah, they're hanging the closet." He told her as he got out of bed. "Pick something for the club. We're going there tonight to meet up with Sango, Miroku and Sess will be there later so we can go over what's happened in the last 24 hours."

Kag tensed at the mention of his brother. 'Oh hell' She got out of bed and grabbed some clothes from the closet. 'I'll worry about him later. A shower will help me feel better.'

Her mind churned from all the events that had happened as she finished her shower. Looking into the mirror as she fixed her hair a thought struck her. 'He never told me about his brother! How could I forget something like?' She finished getting ready quickly and stormed out of the bath room to confront her best friend.

"Yaaassshhhhh!" she called out in her 'you are in deep shit' voice. Finding him in the living room she smiled sweetly at him.

Yash looked up from the couch with a feeling of dread as gazed locked with hers. 'Oh damn! What did I do now?' he thought.

"Yashie, why didn't you EVER tell me you had a brother?" she said in a syrupy tone that belied her anger. Her gaze turned hard as she waited for an answer. "You have some explaining to do friend."

He gulped at the look she gave him implying that he better fess up or else. He wished she didn't remember that little bit from the night before. The one thing he would not ever explain to anyone was his relationship with his older brother. Even Kag. He just didn't want to hurt her feelings and knew he was about to.

Hardening his own eyes he glared at her. "Kag, I know we have been friends since childhood but this is one thing I will not get into with you. Just drop it, okay?" he turned away from her not wanting to see the look of hurt and betrayal he knew would be in her eyes.

She stood there shocked at his words. 'He won't tell me!' her heart hurt suddenly at his declaration. It must be something that ran really deep for him not to share with her. "I'm sorry Yash, that you don't trust me enough to share this with me." She whispered.

His gaze snapped back to her bowed head. Golden eyes softened as he stood to go to her. "Kag it's not like that." He said softly. Wrapping his arms around tiny waist he buried his face into the crook of her neck. "I didn't talk about him because he didn't exist to me, until now. It's complicated and I don't want to talk about it. Please understand."

Sighing she leaned back so that he would look at her. She framed his face with her hands and looked deeply into his eyes. Feeling and seeing his sincerity, she resolved not to question him on it. She understood the need to not speak of certain things and would respect his wish. "You are my best friend. If you ever need me, I'll be right here, always. Just like you were always there for me."

A shocked expression crossed his face as comprehension dawned on him. 'She's not gonna press me for answers?' He was stunned. Lowering his face to hers his heart wrenched "Gods Kag, I'm so sorry. Maybe someday I'll be able to explain.... but thank you for not pushing me on this."

She pressed her forehead against his as squeezed his neck tight. "I love you Yash and I will do my best to understand. Just promise me that we will always be friends no matter what and that nothing will ever come between that."

The urge to crush his lips to hers became overwhelming as he felt every breath of the words she spoke against them. His love for her had not faded over the years, even though he knew that they would never be together the way they were before. He was just grateful that things really never changed between them after their decision not to be together, but he still considered his.

Just this once he wanted to kiss her. Really, kiss her. Before he had the chance to stop himself, his body took on a mind of its own. He growled as he crushed her body to his and gave into his heart's desire.
