Chapter 5: No Choice

Kagome knocked on Inuyasha's door and then went in the room. There he was on the bed putting his pants on.

" Kagome when I didn't answer wouldn't that mean don't come in!"

" So what! I figured you would be getting in your pants by the time I knocked. Besides I've seen you in your underwear dozens of time. I mean that's what you sleep in for crying out loud!"

" Feh, whatever! I'm ready to get out of this damn place as soon as I put on my shirt!"

" You're lucky you get out of here today at all. Miroku has to stay in here another night! He doesn't have demon blood, unlike you, so his injuries are going to take longer even with my healing techniques!"

" Just get me out of here!"

" Fine, why don't you go say good bye to Miroku while I go sign you out!" With that she left him.

Inuyasha walked in on Miroku who was sleep and sat in the chair by his bed. His face was a little bruised and cut like his was yesterday. His leg was propped up his right hand had a lot of bandages on it.

' I'm sorry Miroku! All of this is my fault. If they weren't after me then you wouldn't have been in that accident. Damn it! Why didn't they just come after me, why did they have to do this to you? I wonder if I should tell you the truth about why we had that accident?' Just then Miroku started to stir and when he opened his eyes he saw Inuyasha sitting in his room.

"Hey man how ya doin'! How's the head?"

Inuyasha sighed, "It's doin' fine!"

"You know you owe me a new window for knocking the old one out with your head, but Kagome already said she pay me back with dinner!"

"Well sorry for your window, but if you hadn't pulled the wheel so hard I never would have gone through it in the first place!"

"Details, details! So you leaving today?"

"Yeah Kagome is signing me out right now!"

"Lucky you! I have to stay here till tomorrow, but I guess I should simply count my blessings that I don't have to stay any longer. The doctors were in a state of shock when they saw how quickly I was recovering!" Miroku said laughing.

Inuyasha took a breath and began, " Miroku do you know why we crashed?"

"I don't know why we crashed! I was going to ask Sango when she came in today!" He looked at his friend's face, " Inuyasha do you know why we crashed? Come on, you can tell me! I'm your bestfriend after all! You can tell me anything!"
He took another breath, " Well, I was told that your breaks were cut!"

"Who would cut my breaks. I haven't made anyone that mad. Do you know…"

"Well Sesshomaru thinks, well I think who did that to your car…"

"Hey you two! Inuyasha you're all signed out and I think some of the nurses are happy that you're leaving. What did you did you do in one night?" Then she noticed the somber mood of the room, " Hey you two, what's wrong? What's with the faces?"

"Don't worry about it Kagome! Miroku I'll tell you about it later ok?"

Miroku nodded, " By the way Inuyasha that was you who was yelling at the nurses last night wasn't it?"

Kagome glared at him, " I said I try! Bye Miroku, I'll talk to you tomorrow!"

At the apartment

" So Inuyasha what happened with you at the hospital last night?"

" I told them to stop waking me up and if I slip into a coma then at least I would get some sleep!"

" Inuyasha I thought that I told you to be nice when they did that! You know it was their job!" Kagome yelled, " I swear sometimes you can be the most hard headed guy in the world! For once can't you just listen…" Kagome was silenced with a kiss, " to me."

" What was that you were saying? I couldn't get it when you started kissing me!"

" I didn't kiss you, you kissed," He cut her off with another kiss. " You know you can't just end arguments by kissing me you know!"

" True, but I think that's the best way! So do ya wanna order pizza and watch movies tonight! You know a coming home celebration!"

" Sure! It's like three thirty now so perfect time for pizza! I might even let you pick out the movie?"

" What do you mean let me? I live here too! I pay half the bills so that entitles me to pick out the movie!"

" What ever you say! You order the pizza and I'm going to take a shower."

Kagome was so happy to have Inuyasha home. It was really lonely with out him there last night. She knew that he was ok, but she still couldn't shake the feeling that something was a wrong. She stood in the shower and let the warm water over take her. She loved the water. The heat made her feel so relaxed and at peace with the world. She needed it right then. She stepped out of the shower and went into the room to get changed. She pulled her shirt over her head and looked at the clock to see it was four.

' Woh, I didn't realize that I had stayed in there so long.'

She then felt some ones arms wrapping there way around her waist. She turned around to come face to face with golden eyes.

" Inuyasha what do you think you're doing?"

" Nothing, I just felt like holding you is all."

" Really that's all you had in mind?"

" Maybe I had something else planned!" With that he leaned in and started to kiss her. Kagome felt herself lean further into him. He started to inch her towards the bed and laid her down. She felt his hands starting to travel up her shirt while he started to kiss her neck. Kagome then realized that she hadn't put her underwear on yet. She knew he knew it.

" You know you didn't stay away from me that long."

" Yeah, but that was too long for my liking." As he was saying this he started to move his hand down her leg. Just then they heard knocking on the front door.

" It's the pizza, Inuyasha!" She said trying to suppress a moan.

" So let him wait, I'm busy." Kagome tried to get up, but he just held her down.

" Come on! You can't let the poor guy wait out there. It's not very nice. Besides we could always pick up where we left off." Reluctantly he sighed and got off of her. Kagome got up and put on her underwear and pants, then she went to the door. She paid the guy and apologized for making him wait.

No sooner had Kagome put the pizza down did the door knock again. She could hear Inuyasha groan in the bedroom. She had to suppress a giggle that was trying to get out. She opened the door to see a little red headed boy standing in her doorway.

" Hey Shippo! You parents aren't home again!"

" No! I think some times they don't care if I'm ok or not!"

Inuyasha burst into the room, " Oh, no Kagome! He's not staying here with us!"

" Oh come on Inuyasha! We can't just leave him alone."

" Oh yes we can!"

" What if it was your son alone? Wouldn't you want him to be looked after while your gone?"

" But Kagome! Come on, we were… and you said"

" I know what I said, but your just going to have to wait or your not going to get anything at all!" She said glaring. He sighed in defeat and grabbed a slice of pizza.

" Come on in and sit down Shippo! We have pizza and your more then welcome to it!" Shippo ran in and went straight to the kitchen and grabbed a slice of pizza. Kagome grabbed the pizza box and Pepsi and headed down to sit with the boys.

" So Inuyasha what movie did you pick out?"

" Oh it's a surprise!" When the movie came on Kagome was about to hit him.

" Inuyasha you can't let Shippo watch Alien vs. Predator! It's to scary for a kid like him!"

" Don't worry Kagome! I can watch it! I not going to be a scared little kid!"

" Shippo are you sure. I can always change the movie!"

" You heard him Kagome! He's fine with it, so let's watch it!"

" Yeah Kagome!"

" Well alright!" she replied hesitantly.

So they watched the movie. Inuyasha was trying to suppress a laugh when he saw Shippo jump during the alien and predator fight scene. He quickly silenced it when he saw Kagome glare at him. They went back to watching the movie and Kagome would get closer to Inuyasha when a scene got to intense.

' Jeez she's almost as bad as Shippo!'

Kagome was getting into the movie when she felt a hand start to go up her shirt. She turn to look at Inuyasha and he just smirked. She sighed and let him do what he wanted. At the part where the Alien was snapping at the woman's face Shippo turned around and jumped into Kagome's lap. Inuyasha had already removed his hand by the time Shippo was in her lap.

" Shippo we can cut the movie off if you want?"

" No, I want to watch it! I just want to sit here in your lap so you won't be scared is all!"

" Right!" When the movie had gone off Kagome looked down to discover Shippo had fallen asleep in her lap.

"Come on Shippo wake up. It's time for you to go home!"

He yawned, " Alright Kagome! Can you walk me home?"

" Sure!"

" Shippo you little runt you only live four apartments down! You can walk your self home!"

" But I'm don't wanna go by myself!"

" You to scared to go by your self or you too stupid to find your way home?"

" Kagome, Inuyasha's picking on me!"

" Stop picking on him and act your age! Here Shippo you can have the last slice of pizza!"

" Hey Kagome I was going to eat that later!"

" Well to bad! Come on Shippo, I'll walk you home now!"

When they were half way out the door Shippo turned around and stuck his tongue out at Inuyasha. Inuyasha growled, but Kagome silenced him with her stare.

When they reached Shippo's apartment he asked, " Kagome why do you stay with Inuyasha? I mean you could do so much better then him!"

" I love him Shippo! You'll see what I mean when you grow up!" Kagome knocked on his door and his mom opened the door.

" Thanks for watching him Kagome! We really do owe you!"

" No problem! We enjoyed having him! Good night Shippo!"

" Good night Kagome!"

When she went in her apartment she was greeted by a sulking hanyou.

" Where does that kid get off saying that you're to good for me!"

" He's right you know! Besides stop listening in our conversations good hearing or not!"

" Feh whatever! Hey! Where are you going?"

" To bed! I have classes tomorrow and you put me out of the mood!"

" Wha, what! Come on Kagome!"

" Take a cold shower!" She yelled from the other room.

He came in the room to find Kagome already in the bed about to go to sleep. He couldn't believe it. How could she do this to him! Some welcome home celebration! He sighed and got ready for bed then climbed in next to Kagome. He lay there for a moment sulking till he felt her hand draped across him. He turned around to find Kagome smiling at him.

" I think I've punished you enough for your behavior with Shippo!" He smiled back and pulled her in for a kiss. He went straight for her shirt and took that off. He was happy that was pretty much all Kagome wore to bed. He started to kiss her neck and smiled when she would moan into him. He loved the scent she was giving off and it just made him want her more.

" Inuyasha! Welcome home!"

Later the two just held each other while their heartbeats started to go back to normal.

" You must have really missed me!"

" You have no idea!" He spoke into her hair.

" I know this probably isn't the time to say anything, but why would anyone cut Miroku's brakes! It just doesn't make any sense!"

" Kagome there's something that I was going to tell you yesterday, but we got in that accident and well…"

Kagome sat up while holding the sheet, " What were you going to tell me?"

He took a deep breath and began, " Well you see, to govern the demon activities in the world, there is a demon council of elders. Their job is to make sure everything runs smoothly with all the demons! You see we demons have a tournament to determine which demon family is the strongest and well Sesshomaru and I were challenged to be in the tournament this year."

" Your not going to do it are you?" Kagome asked, fear evident in her voice.

" No I'm not, but I think that someone really has it out for me though!"

" What do you mean by that? You mean they're the one's who cut Miroku's brakes? Why would anyone do such a thing?"

" They were trying to get me to come fight them! But I won't fight anyone who can't come challenge me face to face! Heck you did that!"

" Have you told Miroku the reason, for the accident!"

" I was about to, but you came in the room before I could say it! But I am going to tell him tomorrow!"

" Why are they only going after you if they challenged both of you? Why not Sesshomaru?"

" I don't know, but after tomorrow we won't have to worry about them, ok!"

" Why after tomorrow?"

" Because are deadline was two days! After tomorrow the two days are up!"

" That's good!" She then settled back down in the bed and leaned up against him.

He breathed in her scent and felt himself start to drift into sleep. " I don't know what I would do with out you Kagome! I just can't imagine life with out you!"

" You don't have to because I'm never going to leave you! Remember I promised you already that I wouldn't." Then Inuyasha heard her breathing pattern start to change. He remembered that day clearly when she said that she wouldn't leave him.

Flashback

Inuyasha was lying down on a blanket watching Kagome play in ocean. They had come to the beach to celebrate their anniversary. Sango and Miroku were some where down the beach doing god only knows what.

" Hey Inuyasha come down here and play with me!" yelled Kagome.

" I'll come down when I'm good and ready!"

" You're just afraid of the water!"

' She knows I'm not afraid, she just wants me to come down there with her so she can try to dunk me! All well might as well go!'

He ran down the beach and jumped in the water with Kagome. She laughed and yelled when the water hit her.

" Are you happy now! I'm here!"

" Yes very happy!" With that they swam out further so that they could swim better. Just then a huge wave came and hit them. Kagome came sputtering up. She looked wildly around for Inuyasha, but she couldn't find him anywhere.

" Inuyasha! Inuyasha! Where are you? Please this isn't funny!" She splashed wildly around trying to find him. He had to be here. Just then Kagome felt someone grab her leg and pull her under. She came up sputtering only to find Inuyasha laughing his head off.

" Aw, man! You should have seen your face when you came up!"

" That wasn't funny! I thought something had happened to you, you idiot! Don't scare me like that anymore!"

He saw the look on her face and felt really bad about his little trick. He thought it would be hilarious, but he guessed he was wrong. Kagome looked at him one more time and then headed back to shore.

" Oh come on Kagome! I'm sorry, I really am! Kagome! Kagome!" but she kept on swimming. He started to chase after her when he heard the rush and roar behind him. He turned around to see a huge wave bigger then the one that had hit them before coming at them.

" Kagome! Kagome!" but she kept on swimming away.

' She must think I'm trying to apologize! She's swimming way to slow!'

" Kagome swim faster! A wave is coming!" She turned her head to see the wave coming and Inuyasha coming up fast behind her. Pretty soon he was right there with her. Kagome turned her head just in time see the wave coming down on them. Inuyasha reached for her, but the wave pulled them apart. He pushed his way up to the surface and looked frantically around for her, but there was no sign of Kagome anywhere. He dove down and look for her, but he couldn't see her. He came up and took another big breath and went down again. This time his eye caught the glimpse of something shining in water. He swam to it. It was Kagome. Her necklace was reflecting in the water. He grabbed her and pulled her up to the surface. Then with all of his strength he made his way to the shore.

He laid her down to check her vitals. She wasn't breathing. He then started to perform mouth to mouth.

' Come on Kagome! Don't do this to me! You can't leave me alone! Damn if I hadn't played that stupid trick maybe you would have listened to me sooner and swam faster!'

" Please Kagome wake up!" He tried CPR one more time and this time she started to cough up water. He swept her up in his arms. " Kagome please don't scare me like that again. I thought I was going to lose you!"

" Don't worry Inuyasha! I'll never leave you, I promise!"

" Kagome! Inuyasha!" Inuyasha turned his head up to see Sango and Miroku running up the beach yelling their names.

" Are you two ok?" Sango asked.

" We saw you carrying Kagome out of the water and tried to get here as fast as we could!" Miroku said as he plopped down beside them.

" We had an accident is all! You're all right now Kagome?" She nodded and leaned her head into his chest and sighed, " Happy Anniversary Inuyasha!"

" Yeah, Happy Anniversary!"

End Flashback

" That's right Kagome you're not going to leave me!" He then fell asleep to the sounds of Kagome breathing and his memories.

The next morning Inuyasha woke up to an empty bed. He reached over to where Kagome was to find she wasn't there. He sat up with a start.

" Where is she? Oh yeah! She probably went out to train! She'll be back soon to cook breakfast before her class starts. Till then, I'll get some more sleep." With that he fell back to sleep.

Inuyasha woke with a start. ' Man that dream was awful. I hope I don't have that again.'

" What time is it? One!" He got up and grabbed his jeans. " Hey Kagome why didn't you wake me for break…" He looked around the apartment. Kagome was no where to be found. The kitchen was untouched which meant that she hadn't cooked anything or had even been in the kitchen that morning.

" Kagome!"

He sat down on the couch to think,' Where could she be? Her class should have ended an hour ago. Then why didn't she wake me up before she left for class? She always does! Maybe I should go look for her!'

He went back in the bedroom to grab his shirt. He grabbed his keys and was about to leave when he saw a note by his house keys.

Hey sleepy head! Your motorcycle is parked out front! Your friend from the garage, umm… Toby I think left it out front for you! Well I'm going to train! Don't worry I'll be back in time to cook your breakfast so don't worry! I should be back by 9:00! Love ya, Kagome

His eyes shot up in shock.

" Where is she? She defiantly should have been back by now!"

He looked at his keys, which he now noticed had his bikes key on it, and left the house. He got on his red Suzuki and left for the park. As he got closer he started to feel as if something was a miss. When he got to the park he parked his bike and went to where Kagome usually trained. All he found was her gym bag and water bottle.

" Kagome! This isn't funny, where are you?" he yelled. Just then he caught a scent. It was Kagome's mixed with someone else. The other scent was so familiar, yet he couldn't put his finger on it. What really stood out was the smell of fear. It was emitting from her training grounds. He grabbed her gym bag and a piece of paper fell out. Inuyasha read it and yelled.

Hello Inuyasha,

We meet again! Your girlfriend put up quite a struggle, but in the end I won! I hope you will come join us at the tournament. We will both be waiting your arrival!

NARAKU

" That bastard! When I get my hands on him he's dead! I'm going to that tournament and when I get there I going to KILL HIM!"
