Hello everyone!!!! I am sorry for the delay but I've had the flu all week and so I just didn't feel like typing. But I'm back and with a nice long chapter to make up for it. Anyway enough of the delays lets get to it!!! Disclaimer: "Oh I wish I were Rumiko Takahashi.. that is who I'd truly like to be.. for if I were Rumiko Takahashi.. Inuyasha would belong to me!!!!"

Ch.4 Skipping

The next day found Inuyasha and Kagome in the throne room. Like any royal couple they did have days when they had to listen to reports and suggestions for new laws that could be made. Anyway you looked at it was dreadfully boring. And this fact did not escape Inuyasha, he honestly did try to pay attention, these reports and suggestions were important to his kingdom. And like any good Lord he should listen to any and all helpful ideas that would allow him to run his lands more efficiently.

But unfortunately Inuyasha was gifted with a short attention span and started to nod off, resting his head on his fist he gave a great yawn. "And reptile youkia need more respect." (How much longer is this gonna take?) Inuyasha thought. Kagome was bored as well but was hiding it. She looked over at her mate and saw the yawn; she smiled softly (Poor baby he looks so cute when he's bored.) About thirty minutes later Inuyasha was almost asleep, the stupid lizard youkia was still ranting about prejudice against reptile youkia and Kagome was getting annoyed.

(This guy is officially on my nerves and Inuyasha is bored to tears) Kagome suddenly smiled as a thought crossed her mind. Some of the guards smirked and mumbled a few finallys when their Lady closed her eyes; they knew what she going to do. She asked her mate mentally using their telepathic mate bond. She felt him smirk, she didn't see it because her eyes were closed, but that was exactly what his mind was doing.

And he reached out to grab her hand. She took it and concentrated on the forest outside the castle grounds. They faded from the throne room to the surprise of the Lizard youkia, "Lord Inuyasha.. Lord Inuyasha?.. where did they go?" The guards just smirked knowingly; their Lord and Lady were a restless couple and hated events like this. "Don't worry nothing is wrong they'll be back later." A tall badger youkia guard by the name of Shinto informed the lizard youkia. The little reptile man looked disappointed, "How much later?" he asked. Shinto shrugged, "Depends, sometimes it's only a few hours sometimes it's a few days. How long were they gone last time Gia?"

Shinto asked turning his black and white haired head towards the brown inu youkia female next to him. Gia put a hand to her chin and rubbed it thoughtfully, "Well I think it was two weeks last time." She replied looking at Shinto with her bright green eyes. Shinto smiled, "There you see, they could be back any time, now would you like to stay here and wait for them?" Shinto asked with a big grin, to be honest this youkia was annoying and he couldn't blame his Lord and Lady for leaving.

The lizard youkia sighed regretfully, "No I think I shall leave, just please notify me when they return." Shinto nodded and the lizard youkia started to leave but Gia called out to him. "What's your name? So we can notify you." The lizard youkia stopped and yelled back over his shoulder, "It's Kaun!" Then he turned and walked out the door.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In The Forest~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

" Ah finally I'm free!!" Yelled a very happy Inuyasha as he fell back onto the grass, his arms were spread and so were his legs. His eyes were closed and a smile graced his handsome features. Kagome smiled and plopped down to sit cross-legged beside him. Inuyasha opened one eyes to look at her then rolled so he was on his side with his head propped on his fist facing her. "Kagome I've been thinking." Kagome looked down at him "About what?"

Inuyasha sighed and started playing with the grass, "About whether or not you're really happy here, I mean your family and everything are back in your time." Kagome sighed and looked up at the sky, "I do miss them and a good movie now and then would be great!!" Inuyasha frowned and his ears drooped, he'd been afraid of that. Kagome had only been his mate for 8 months but she had been her family's all her life. Of course she'd choose them over him, hell if he was in her position he'd probably do the same thing.

He couldn't blame her how could she really want to stay with him, a lowly half-breed who had never known a real family. Kagome looked down at her mate and noticed his frown and drooping ears. She smiled. She knew he doubted her love for him, 'Silly puppy' "Inuyasha." He looked up to see her smiling at him. "Yes?" he asked uncertainly, "I love you, I chose to be with you. Just because I miss my family doesn't mean I'm going to leave you."

Inuyasha gasped, she had practically read his mind. "You.you mean you'll stay with me." Kagome sighed then smirked at him. She tackled him and was soon lying on top of his chest. Inuyasha was now looking up into her face with a look of utter confusion and he had his arms around her waist. Kagome smiled, "Look I chose to stay with you and I'm not changing my mind so just get that through that thick head of your and accept it." Inuyasha took a moment to let her words sink in then he smirked. He tightened his grip on her and flipped them over so he was on top.

"I understand, I accept it just fine." Then he kissed her. He didn't need to ask her to open at all, she had already done so and his tongue flicked out to take advantage of the situation. He searched every nook and cranny never a place untasted, unsavored. He ran his tongue over her fangs and then pulled her tongue into his mouth.

He could feel her running her own tongue over his fangs. He mentally smirked, she loved his fangs he knew this. She had told him she thought they were sexy many times. (AN: They are!! ^.~) She loved rolling her tongue over the points during their kisses but it sometimes led to.that, Inuyasha thought as the drops of coppery liquid landed on his tongue. He suddenly wrapped his lips around her bleeding appendage and drew the precious liquid into him.

It should have irritated him that she kept cutting up her tongue because of her stupid fetish with his fangs. But he wasn't, he loved the way her blood tasted it was like a drug to him and Kagome was the source of his addiction. He heard and felt her giggle as he sucked harder. He opened his eyes to look at her and in favor of keeping her tongue in his mouth decided to ask his question mentally. Inuyasha chuckled in his chest and released her tongue. He looked down at her in amusement "You know you do have your own fangs." She smiled, "Yes Inu-chan but your are longer than mine so they deserve some attention." Inuyasha smirked and rolled so he was on his back next to her on the ground.

"Why don't we go visit your family we're low on Ramen." Kagome smiled and looked up at the sky. "Yeah plus I'd like to see my friends. Plus there is this concert playing and while we're there I'd like to finally set Houjo straight." Inuyasha growled at the mention of the boy's name. Kagome giggled, "You know you're getting jealous over someone who doesn't even have a chance with me." Inuyasha just scowled and kept growling, "He'd better not touch you I don't care if he doesn't have a chance, he doesn't know that yet."

Kagome just smiled. She loved her hanyou, and the fact that he was being possessive proved he loved her back. But she already knew that. "Ok Inuyasha lets go I wanna be able to spend the day there." Inuyasha sighed "Ok." He said as he stood then held out a hand to help her up. She took it and once she was standing she closed her eyes and concentrated. When she reopened her eyes the well was right in front of her. "I am so glad I learned how to use my miko powers to teleport, if I hadn't it would have taken us a week to get here." Inuyasha nodded then turned her "Well we didn't come to just look at it now did we?" Kagome smiled and shook her head. "Nope lets go." They held hands and jumped into the well.

Ok well there is chapter 4!!! Again I apologize for the delay and sorry if smirks were repeated a little heavily in this chapter. But hey Inuyasha is extremely sexy when he smirks!!! And you all know it!!! Anyway please REVIEW and I'll get back to you with another chapter later. JA!!!
