Chapter 4

The room looked like an art gallery. The walls were covered in sketches and paintings while the floor was occupied by sculptures. A computer desk with no computer sat on the opposite side of the door. Paper was discarded on the surface along with pencils, pens, paintbrushes, paint, and other junk.

"EK!" something touched her, "Inu-Yasha, what's with you and your family being so quiet and scaring me!"

He shrugged. "You know, you are the first person to find this room without being showed. My brother doesn't even know about this room."

She didn't know if she should be proud of herself or not. She didn't have time to respond though because Inu-Yasha was walking further into the room. "This room is amazing; did you make all of these?"

"Yeah."

She began to look at the walls. She found a spot of pictures that seemed to be hidden in a corner. They were all of the same girl. She slightly resembled Kagome but she knew it wasn't her. "Who is this?"

His whole back stiffened. "No-no one. Just never mind." after several moments of awkward silence he said, "Okay, come here."

She joined him at the desk. "What do you want to start with? Sketching, painting, or sculpting?"

"Let's keep it simple, just sketching." he pulled put a bunch of expensive looking pencils and a sketch book. He handed her a pencil and the pad. "I can use my own pencils if you don't want me to use those." she didn't want to ruin his pencils by mistake.

"Keh, just use these. I have a ton of them. Okay, so I want you to draw something, anything, and I will see how you draw it."

She decided on drawing her guitar. He corrected her on a few things. He even showed her a better way to hold her pencil and she seemed to be getting better just from that. She was having troubles with the shape though. He took her hand in his and directed her how to make the shape.

She had goose bumps all up her arm from his touch. When he was done the shape he didn't let go. She looked up at him, not knowing what to do next. They just stared at each other for what felt like a lifetime. Finally he dipped his head down to kiss her. To both their dismay the phone rang. He got up and ran for the phone, all the while cursing.

She seemed to be in a daze, barely hearing what he was saying in the phone. Then she felt scared. She suddenly needed to get away from here. He got off the phone and started to walk back over to her.

"I'm sorry I have to go." she said. Then she grabbed her stuff and walked out. "See you."

'I shouldn't of answered the phone.' he thought bitterly. He was pretty sure he scared her away. Angrily he punched the free space of wall.

She couldn't breath. The minute she walked into her room she began to hyperventilate. She stuck her head in her knees and started to breath deeply. She was scared and mad at herself at the same time. She really wanted that kiss to happen so why did she back down? She wanted to scream in frustration. She was half afraid Inu-Yasha was mad at her for leaving. Had he expected to go back where they left off or was it a spur of the moment thing? Would he be just as embarrassed?

She lay down on her bed thinking of what she should do until sleep overcame her. She had a restless sleep of dreams with different scenarios to her problem. She battled to sleep but the dreams were getting worse so she decided to give up on sleep at 6. She had her shower and ate some toast. She was still the only one up. It was now 6:45. She didn't know what to do with herself. She sat in her kitchen for 20 minutes and decided that she would see if Inu-Yasha was up. He should be up by now.

'But what if he's still mad at me?' then she decided not to go. Instead she practiced some drawing techniques that Inu-Yasha had shown her.

School

She couldn't spot Inu-Yasha. She really wanted to talk to him but at the same time she wanted to run away screaming. The fact that he might like her terrified her. She hadn't known anybody who had a crush on her since high school and that kid was just plain boring. Everybody liked him and all her friends wanted her to go out with him but she didn't want to. (cough cough HOJO..Ahem, had something in my throat)

She gave up hope and went to class. To her delight he was there. He looked a little tired but all in all he was still there. Gracefully she sat down. She didn't want to ever fall again in his presence, he always made fun of her.

"Hey." She greeted.

"Hi." He responded. Maybe he wasn't as tired as he looked. Then an awkward silence followed. Clearly he remembered last night. She didn't know what to say. But luckily she didn't have to because at that very moment the teacher started to talk.

Lunch

She plopped down across from Inu-Yasha with her ham sandwich and juice box. She felt like such a child. Everyone else has their Evian water and some even had alcohol descised (cant spell!) as other things.

"We have practice today right?"

He nodded. They ate while listening to someone talk about their views on art when she felt something. Without warning Inu-Yasha sprung from his chair, right over the table and WHAM THUD She looked behind her. Koga was lying on the ground with a bleeding nose while Inu-Yasha straightened himself out. She had never seen anything like that. Then before she knew it, Koga was running out the room saying,"You will regret that,"

"Keh."

Sculpting Class

They were back to plain and simple clay sculptures. Good old clay, even if u make a mistake you can fix it right away.

They were half way into class when there was a knock on the door. The teacher answered it. It was the police!

"Is there a Mr. Inu-Yasha here?"

Inu-Yasha raised his hand. "Come with me."

Next thing they knew, Inu-Yasha was being hauled off in a police car. "Sir, I don't feel good. I think I'm going to go." She bolted out the door. She had to find out what was happening. She flew into her car and drove to the station 20 miles over the speed limit.

Police Station

She pushed the doors open and walked inside. The last time she had been here was when she had to bail her friend out of jail for stealing. She walked up to the front desk. "I'm here about a boy who was arrested like half an hour ago. I was wondering what the charges were."

He looked up on his computer. "Yes, Mr. Inu-Yasha correct? Charged for attack. He apparently hit a boy at school."

"There was good reason for that though!" she yelled, "That boy he hit was trying to feel me up and wouldn't go away." She didn't care if she was lying a bit.

"That is still no reason for him to hit him."

"Yeah it is......he's..." I'm gonna get it, "He's my boyfriend."

"How do I know that your not lying just to get him out?"

"I'll prove it. Can I see him?"

He took her through the halls. The cells were filled with scary looking men who talked to her as she walked by. She didn't listen though. She was to afraid to hear. Finally they came upon a cell with only one occupant, Inu-Yasha.

The man opened the cell door and motioned for her to go inside. She had to do something if she was going to prove they were going out, not that they were or anything.

She saw the police man mouth 'Prove it.' So she walked inside. She hesitated one second and then yelled. "Oh, Baby I missed you!" she ran into his arms and kissed him fully. Then something strange happened, she didn't pull back and neither did he. They merely stood there, kissing each other in the dirty cell as the guard watched. That seemed proof enough.

"Your free to go." The 2 separated and walked out.

The second they walked out the doors she exclaimed, "That was intense."

She hopped into her car and so did he. She drove him home and he invited her in. Practice was soon and so she ran over and grabbed her guitar, then returned to his house. She was greeted by Sesshomaru again, he was like a butler, and she was told he was downstairs. She looked around. She couldn't spot him. She began to walk around and peek into different rooms. Still no Inu-Yasha. Then she remembered that room that had the hidden door that she was never able to get into. She walked into the place where they practiced and saw that the door to the hidden room was open. She walked inside it and was immediately in someone's arms.

"Inu-Yasha?" she was confused.

"Don't think you can kiss me like that and get away with it." Next thing she knew, his mouth was on hers. It was nothing like their first kiss. This one had pure meaning, meaning of like, and passion.

She practically melted. She felt herself get pushed again the wall and his teeth nibbled her lower lip. She opened her mouth and let his tongue enter. It explored every little part of her mouth. While he did that she busied herself with his hair that she so adored. Its silky texture wove through her fingers as she weaved her hands through it.

Finally the kiss broke. He looked into her eyes, "Will you go out with me?"

She giggled. "Of course silly." She playfully kissed his nose and walked out of the room. He shut the door before she could look at it. She totally forgot and now she didn't know if she would ever see that room again. All she knew was that the walls were red.

He had a sly smile played across her lips. She couldn't help but smile back. He looked so cute like that. They had decided to keep their relationship a secret. It was hard during practice but they managed. No one suspected a thing.

After the band left Kagome and Inu-Yasha curled up with a good movie. The candy and koolade seemed to flow. After a half an hour they couldn't shut up. They were so loud that Sesshomaru yelled at them.

"HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA." He was laughing at something that made no sense. They blamed the movie, they were watching without a paddle. Inu-Yasha had a friend who was good with computers and got it before it even came out. "MATRIX!" and they were laughing again. Kagome grabbed the bowl of skittles and shoved in about 10 and barely chewed. Inu-Yasha grabbed his coke and took a big gulp of it right when the movie got funny and ended up spitting the coke all over the ground which made him laugh even harder. Good thing the furniture was plastic but the carpet was getting ruined. Inu-Yasha was sprawled out on the couch and Kagome was holding her sides from laughing so hard on the floor.

Inu-Yasha was in a sugar daze. He lay there, looking at the ceiling. Suddenly his legs began to twitch and wouldn't stop. This sent him into another laughing fit.

Finally after laying there for a couple minutes their sugar rush stopped and they were there normal selves again. Inu-Yasha grabbed a towel and whipped the coke off the couch. Then he sat down and she joined him. He hooked his arm around her shoulders as she leaned into him. They enjoyed every minute of this. Just being in the comfort of one another made them feel at ease. Then they fell asleep, heads leaning into each others.

Rin came downstairs to see why they were so quiet all of the sudden. She feared them for dead. When she looked upon the happy couple she couldn't help but suppress and "Awe." She was soon joined by her love Sesshomaru. If he hadn't been so emotionally deprived he would have also said 'Awe.' But instead he watched in silence and pulled Rin away from them and back upstairs. He returned 5 minutes later but for a good reason. He placed a ball cap onto Inu-Yasha's head and went back upstairs.

YAWN he opened his eyes to see a beautiful girl sleeping peacefully on his chest. She was so cute and innocent in the mourning, or at least he thought she was, she wouldn't be for long but that's just when she's mad at Souta. Then he panicked. His hands went for his head and when felt the hat he felt relief rush into his body. He just about had a heart attack. He felt her stir in his arms. Then her beautiful brown eyes were upon him. She smiled and pulled her body in closer to his. He was warm. It was nice. It would have been even nicer if there was a blanket. The she panicked.

"What time is it?" she was going to be late for school, she could feel it.

"Its.... 10."

She jumped up from the couch. "We are late for school!"

He laughed, "Kagome, we have the day off."

Now she felt stupid. How could she forget she had Friday off this week? It wasn't like her but waking up in her boyfriend's house wasn't like her either. Her mom was probably worried sick. But she was a big girl now. She was in college after all. She shouldn't have to keep in touch with her mom all the time. 'I should really move out and get my own house,' Oh yeah, like that would ever happen; she doesn't even have a job.

They decided candy wasn't a good plan; they didn't want a repeat of last night. They didn't even realize how bad it was until they woke up this mourning. The candy was scattered all over the table, coke stains seemed to be everywhere and candy like skittles were stuck to the floor. Then the koolade had to be the worst. The powder was all over the table and the floor. Theirs cups had been tipped over and now koolade stains of red and blue were on the carpet. Not to mention that the furniture felt oddly sticky.

"Should we clean it up then?" She asked. She felt bad, it was a huge mess, her mom would never let her get away with it.

"Keh, Sesshomaru can just get Jaken to do it,"

"Who's that?"

"You could call him a friend of Sesshomaru's but I wouldn't, I prefer the term slave." He shrugged, "Common, lets go eat breakfast."

She didn't know if she liked the idea of this Jaken guy being the one to clean everything. It didn't seem fair. She had never met him though, maybe he liked to clean. 'Who likes to clean?' She almost laughed out loud but stopped herself. She found herself in part of the house she had never been in. Apparently he had more than one kitchen. This one was red and sliver themed. She finally came to the conclusion that Inu-Yasha really liked red. It was indeed his personal kitchen. He told her to look around. So far all she found was candy which wasn't appealing to her at the moment. She found 2 cupboards full of ramen which she noticed Inu-Yasha was cooking. She shrugged and grabbed herself a package.

"I take it you like ramen?"

"My favourite!" he smiled as he took it out of the microwave.

When he began to eat she didn't know if she should laugh or be disgusted. He just kind of inhaled the ramen. He didn't chew or anything. She wondered if he could even taste it. Before hers was even done cooking he was done his first cup. After she had taken hers out he put another into the microwave.

After she ate hers she still had some left but she couldn't finish so he ate the rest. This was kind of scary.

That was chapter 4. I was a little hyper during this chapter. In fact when I wrote the hyper scene it was because I was hyper, that's where I got the idea. Seriously though, never drink 5 glasses of koolade, its like temporary insanity. Thanks for the reviews and support. AHAHAHA I have big plans for this story. REVIEW PLEASE! AHAHA. Sorry to the people who dont like cliffy's from my 3rd chapter. Oh and i have no idea how long it will take me to update. shouldnt be long cus tomorrow Friday! INU-YASHA'S ON! YAY.
