Evil Temptations

Chapter Two

What Happens in a Night


InuYasha was steadily getting better and his arm hardly bothered him anymore. The main thing that caused pain was his head - physical pain at least. As the hours went by he wanted his memories to return more and more. He wanted to know who he really was; not just his name. There were no hints though, unless Naraku was keeping something from him. No, that's not it. He wouldn't do that.

Naraku had been taking excellent care of the youkai, making sure he got his every need. InuYasha trusted the man, against his first judgement. He had long since forgotten that warning. Once in a while it would come back but he'd push it away.

It turned out that there were only about two or three other people that lived with Naraku.. well, it seemed more like visited. They had great power like Naraku himself. InuYasha didn't actually know how powerful he really was since he'd never seen him use his powers but he knew him to be very powerful, something just told him and he trusted it. With how the dark-haired man bossed everyone around he had to be powerful.

The inu youkai sighed loudly. Bringing his uninjured arm up to rub his temple, not wanting to risk further injury to his other arm. His headache only growing with his thoughts. Try as he might his memories just wouldn't come back. Naraku told him that within time they would; he just had to be patient. Yeah, right. He laughed dryly.

"How are you feeling?" Naraku asked, sounding genuinely concerned. He had just walked in and saw that InuYasha was rubbing his temple, as if there was great pain, which he was sure there was.

"Better, I suppose. Memories still have not came back. Not surprising, I guess." The youkai responded, not the least bit surprised by the man's sudden appearance. He had gotten used to it after a couple of days. Of course, at first it had startled him a lot.

"That is to be expected." Naraku said. He wanted it to take a long time for the inu youkai to regain his memories, if at all, not like he'd ever say that aloud though. He could use it to his advantage. It would be very useful for getting the jewel shards from the Kagome person that he would always be around before.

Naraku had brought some water for InuYasha so set it next to him and sat down by his patient.

"Arigatou." /Thank you/ The silver-haired youkai said, grateful for the drink, his throat being very dry.

"Douitashimashite." /You're welcome/ Naraku responded politely. He had been nothing but polite, even if it wasn't towards the youkai. He had to keep up his facade if he was going to get InuYasha to trust him. He had no idea that he had already accomplished that.

Once InuYasha was done with his water he started to get up. His surpressed a moan of pain that the motion had shot through his head.

"Where are you going? You still need your rest." Naraku said, actually concerned.

"Outside. I'm tired of bring stuck in here." The inu youkai stood up and would have fallen over if Naraku hadn't caught him. When the dizziness subsided enough, InuYasha stood on his own and started to walk towards the shouji. He had stumbled a few times but luckily caught himself. After a while Naraku supported the still wounded youkai and helped him outside.

They eventually got out and Naraku gently lowered InuYasha on the ground so he was leaning against a tree. The silver-haired youkai was breathing heavily and had his eyes tightly closed. "Are you well?" Naraku asked.

"Un, just give me a second." /Yeah/ InuYasha replied breathlessly. He had opened his eyes but quickly shut them, for the world was spinning and he felt nauseous. The movement had only caused his headache to grow even worse.

Naraku sat down next to the youkai once more, except this time a lot closer. He repeated soothing words to help him.

That was harder than I thought it would be. InuYasha thought disappointed. He didn't think it would take so much effort just to walk outside. It wasn't that far after all.

InuYasha finally opened his eyes and was relieved to find everything still. He looked over at Naraku who looked worried. "I'm fine now." He reassured.

"If you say so." Naraku said, not entirely convinced. The look in InuYasha's eyes alone told him otherwise, but he decided it would be best not to question farther.

He followed InuYasha's gaze, that had turned upward and looked at the sky. It was night, with a cloudless sky so all the stars were out. They were shinning brilliantly with the crescent moon . A slight breeze washed over the two.

They sat there for hours without speaking, just looking at the beautiful sight before them. InuYasha finally looked away from the sky to Naraku. It seemed like he was going to say something, when he all of a sudden leaned forward and kissed him.

Naraku was surprised to say the least and didn't know how to respond.

InuYasha pulled away when he realized Naraku wasn't kissing him back and thought that he had just made a huge mistake. He had kissed him before he could stop himself. Naraku had just been so kind to him and took great care of him. He couldn't help but fall for him.

The youkai bowed his head in shame only to have it pulled up by Naraku. The black-haired man kissed him. They broke apart and Naraku said, "Gomen. I did not know how to respond. I was shocked." /I'm sorry./

"There is no need to apologize. I should not--" He was cut off by a passionate kiss.

Naraku pushed InuYasha back so they fell onto the ground with Naraku on top.

InuYasha moaned when Naraku planted kissed along his collarbone and gently caressed him. The thought that this was wrong never crossed his mind. Why would it after all? He really didn't care if it was or not, to him it felt right and that's all that mattered.

All of a sudden InuYasha felt a sharp pain in his head and let out a cry of pain, not being able to stop it.

"What's wrong?" Naraku had stopped undoing the youkai's robes and asked. He had done nothing to hurt him so was puzzled.

"S-sorry. I just.... got a sharp pain... in my head." InuYasha apologized still feeling the pain. He truly was sorry for stopping him, it really had felt good; he didn't know where the pain had come from.

"It's alright. You should get back inside and rest anyway. You are still injured." Naraku said understandly. He thought it was odd though, neither had done something to hurt the youkai so he shouldn't have been in pain. Maybe it was too soon for him to be moving about.

Naraku carefully helped InuYasha up and lead him inside. This time supporting him from the beginning, he didn't want to risk a fall, especially since the youkai seemed a bit more dazed than before.

They got to the room that InuYasha was using and Naraku once more carefully lowered the inu youkai onto his futon. "I shall be back."

InuYasha nodded and surpressed a wince at the movement. What's wrong with me? He thought. It wasn't this bad before. The pain was so great that he felt really nauseous. He had only thrown up once since the head injury and that had been shortly after he had woken up for the first time. He was afraid he woudl do so again though.

The silver-haired youkai brought his uninjured arm up to his head and placed it across his forehead, hoping to relieve himself of the pain, to no avail.

He was startled when a hand touched his arm and he jumped. "Sorry to frighten you but you need to drink this. It shall help ease your pain." Naraku said, having returned with a cup full of some type of liquid.

InuYasha reluctantly sat up with the help of Naraku and slowly drank. True to Naraku's word the pain did ease up, however, it did not leave.

"Rest now." Naraku said soothingly.

"Can you stay with me, at least till I fall asleep?" He wouldn't admit it aloud, but he felt more relaxed when the crimson-eyed man was close to him.

"Of course." Naraku decided that he would stay the night with InuYasha and figured the youkai wouldn't mind so got under the covers with him.

InuYasha was taken aback by his behavior. Though Naraku had been nothing but kind to him, he never thought he would actually stay with him, must less under his own covers! It was more than he asked for, however, he definitely would not turn it down.

Naraku had laid down behind InuYasha and wrapped his arms around the youkai's waist. InuYasha closed his eyes finding the position very comfortable and fell asleep within seconds. Naraku also fell asleep, unwillingly. He couldn't help it since it was comfortable to him as well. He hadn't actually planned on falling asleep. His incarnations were supposed to be coming with news of their mission. However, Naraku's position had been too comfortable and he felt at ease for the first time in months. He didn't care about anything at the moment, besides the body his arms were wrapped around. Thankful that InuYasha had fallen asleep so easily, he allowed himself to do the same.


Hmmmm... does that mean that Naraku really does have feelings for InuYasha? Or is it all just an act? And what was the mission that he sent his incarnations on? All good questions that will.... eventually be answered. :)

Oh, and sry it took so long for the update. I had some personal issues goin' on (not like I usually don't but more so this time) and I didn't really feel like writting.
