Chapter 15

Wrapped in his strong arms she felt safe. She had seen him murder someone last night but she felt safe. She had givin it a lot of thought the night he lost control and the mourning after. She had things go through her mind like 'Could I live with someone like that? and 'Could he hurt me too?' but in the end she realized that her love for him could not let what he was get in the way, he couldn't help who he is. She thought his ears were kind of cute.

She looked up to him to see stray tears coming from his eyes. She whipped them away. She felt so much pain for him; she could only imagine what he was going through.

"Don't cry." She said softly.

He stood up and let her go, "Look at me! I'm a monster. I fucking killed someone last night! You don't deserve someone like me," He paused, "You deserve better."

She stood up and walked to him, "Inu-Yasha… you aren't a monster and if you hadn't of killed Kikyo she would have killed you." She looked deep into his eyes, "And it was never what I deserved… I just want you."

He couldn't believe what he was hearing. He seriously expected her to hate him forever. Why wasn't she afraid of him? Everyone was. He felt so many emotions at that time that he did the only thing he could think of, he hugged her. "I'm sorry Kagome." She was right, Kikyo would have killed him. Because she was dead he would never have to worry about finding Kagome dead one day or having to be careful everywhere they went. He didn't want that kind of problem; he just wanted to be happy for more than the usual month of happiness. Was that to much to ask for?

"I'm sorry I lied to you…" he paused, "About what I am. I meant to tell you so many times but… never got the courage."

"Don't worry Yash, I understand. You were scared that's all. Its ok, it doesn't matter. You are no different." But that wasn't true, while his personality was the same he could now do things he never could around her before.

They stood in each others arms for several long moments. "Ahem." Came a voice from the door. It was Sess. "Some one phoned to tell you that you're supposed to go see a house."

"Crap." He breathed out. He forgot, he was supposed to go look at that house he was going to buy.

So he changed his clothes and cleaned himself up in less than 4 minutes. "You sure do that fast…" Kagome commented. Then they were out the door.

Inu-Yasha felt himself growing happier. The memory of Kikyo was slowly, very slowly leaving his mind. But she was still there and probably would be everyday from this moment on. He would probably feel bad about it for the rest of his life but he had to try to forget it. It's the only way.

They arrived in the nice end of the city. The VERY nice end.

She was amazed. He was going to live here? She lived in a nice part of Japan but compared to this she lived in a dump.

They stopped in front of a white house. It was smaller than all of the other houses in the neighborhood but it had a cozy feel to it. It had a nice bay window in the front and several small windows on the top floor. The grass was extremely green and looked like it came from one of those garden show catalogs. Kinda scary…

But the weird thing was that the outside seemed to trick you for what was seen inside. Just by looking you would assume that the inside was just as proper and fancy but you would be wrong. The inside was the exact opposite. It reminded Kagome of the basement in Inu-Yasha's last home. Most of the walls were red. The place screamed Inu-Yasha! He must have had it remodeled. There was no way that all the houses in this neighborhood looked like this house. When you came in you came into an entrance way with black marbly looking tiles and blackish walls. As you walk from there you come into a large open room with red walls with darker red carpet. You go through a red door to find a kitchen with red and white tiles for flooring, red counters and metal appliances and cupboards. If you turn right you will find a little bathroom with only a toilet. The walls are not red; they are a greenish colour and white tiling. If you go back into the front room and turn to your right there is stairs to a basement where Kagome did not go and if you go back toward the entrance way you will find stairs. Up the stairs are 4 rooms, a bathroom, the master bedroom and 2 spare bedrooms. The master bedroom is much like the front room with red carpet and red walls. In the master bedroom there is a bathroom with a hot tub. The walls are white as is the flooring. The rest of the rooms just have red walls and red carpet.

"You really like red, don't you?"

"Yeah, I'm obsessed with the colour." He shrugged.

So this is where Inu-Yasha was going to live… she could totally picture it. The colour red suited him. He looked great in red and looked great standing next to it. He looked so great in fact that she wanted to reach out and touch him. She would have but he looked deep in thought as if he was trying to decide something. It must have been a hard decision because he didn't stop until they were just about to leave. They were in the master bedroom, looking around, when finally he spoke.

"Kagome?"

"Yeah?"

He blushed; whatever this was it was hard for him to say. "I-I was wondering," He fiddled his thumbs and looked to the ground, "I was wondering if…. You would…consider…" he said this last part really fast, "moving in with me."

He looked up and waited for the look of terror he could imagine on her face but it never came. Instead he was rewarded with the happiest smile he had ever seen her give. It was like light radiated from her. She launched herself at him and planted small kisses on his face. Then one long kiss on his mouth. Even though they were kissing they were smiling extremely happy smiles. The kiss seemed to last for a life time. When they finally broke from each other they stood in each other's arms and stared at one another.

"Is that a yes?" he asked slyly.

She laughed, "Yeah, of course, I would love nothing more."

Then followed another kiss. The next thing she knew she was pressed against a wall while Inu-Yasha's hands explored her body. Shivers ran up and down her spine. He moved his lips from hers and trailed fleeting kisses down her neck and to her collar bone where he kissed for several moments as she moaned in pleasure. Then he made his way back up her neck and to her face where he caught her lips with passion.

He was so happy, he could finally take her. But it all came crashing down. The entrance door opened and a happy female voice from below yelled, "Anyone there?"

Inu-Yasha growled, it was his real-estate agent, Ayame. They detached themselves from each other and walked down the stairs. It was a young girl about 23 maybe with reddish orange hair in pigtails. She sure didn't look like a real-estate agent. She must be good to be one at this age.

"Hello Mr. Inu-Yasha, pleasant to see you again." She nodded to them both, "I trust everything is to your liking."

"Yeah… thanks Ayame. I'm ready to move in at the end of the week."

"Well if everything it settled I guess you don't need me here, ill be on my way, have a nice day."

They left the house with her, she got into a blue car with… guess who!?

"Koga?" Kagome choked out.

"Oh… hey Kagome." This was awkward.

Ayame hopped into the car, kissed Koga on the cheek and they drove away.

"Nice to see he got someone of his own specie."

"Wha?"

Oh, he forgot. "Forgot to tell you, Koga is a wolf demon, so is Ayame."

She felt dizzy for a second. A lot of people were ending up as demons. Kind of strange, a couple days ago she didn't even believe in them.

In the Car

"So… is there anybody else I should know is a demon?"

He nodded, "My brother for one, Jaken obviously, I heard you met him. Those 2 girls that I heard helped save me. The guy with Kikyo… My friend Shippo."

She nodded; this was a lot to take in for one day. Maybe she could ask questions another day.

"So I guess you should tell you mom that you are moving."

"Yeah… I hope she wont be to sad."

Inu-Yasha grabbed one of Kagome's hands and held it, "Don't worry, she will understand that it's time for you to move out."

She nodded, she knew she would. The only problem was how could she tell her mom that she was moving in with her boyfriend that she never knew about? That could get complicating. Her mom would be disappointed that she never told her she had a boyfriend. Plus she would probably be worried that she was moving in with a boy period.

Kagome's Home

"Mom…I need to speak to you." She took her mom to the kitchen away from certain brother's ears.

"Mom… I don't know how to say this but…"

"You're Pregnant!"

Kagome just looked like she had been slapped in the face. "MOM! I'm still a virgin!"

"Oh sorry dear."

"Why would you assume that first anyways?"

She shrugged, "I'm not that type of girl." She frowned, "But no, what I was going to tell you is that I have decided to move out."

"Oh honey, you don't have to. You will be all alone."

Kagome looked slightly guilty, "No…I won't… I'm moving in with my boyfriend…"

"Kagome, I didn't know you had one."

"Sorry I didn't tell you."

"Don't worry… but you must bring him over for dinner one day." Her mom looked positively giddy. She was so happy that her daughter was finally becoming a woman.

"You go start packing then honey; I'm going to make supper."

Kagome ran up the stairs. That went better than she had predicted.

By the end of the week Kagome had all of her stuff packed into the back of Miroku's truck. She took one last glance at the place she once called home. She would miss it but she knew it was time to say goodbye. Her mom and brother stood on the porch and waved goodbye as she drove away.

She couldn't help but smile. She was starting a new adventure.

THAT'S THE END! Sad huh? I do plan on making a sequel but not yet, I need ideas. Besides, I kind of maybe wanna make a lemon in the sequel but we shall see. I am only 14. But I don't know yet, haven't made up my mind but for sure I will make a sequel. Not yet though, I have been waiting for this to finish so that I could start with some other stories that I thought up. Oh and if you guys wonder why Inu-Yasha didn't mourn Kikyo's death very much it's because of me! I hate her and I don't want him to miss her. She was a bitch and I have troubles making people care about her so that was pretty short. Heh Heh. Oh, and thanks to those who actually sent me in their favourite episodes but no one had the same ones. Personally my favorites are number 13, the one where Miroku thinks he has kids but they are just snowballs, and the one where they go to that mountain to get sake. The last 2 haven't aired in Canada yet, I watched them in Japanese on Kazaa. You guys can stop sending them in I guess. Actually I basically like them all, even the ones I have seen like 5 times and I think I'm tired of them… but when I watch them I like them still. Thanks to all you supporters and reviewers. You've been great, love you all. Thanks, I can't believe I made it past 100 reviews lol. Then again I can't even believe that I wrote 15 chapters. If you want me to make a sequel please tell me, the more times I'm told the faster I will start it! So buh bye for now, I'll see you again for the sequel.

Hobey Ho
