Chapter 17: Ski Resort: Week One, Get Naraku
The week went by pretty fast and now it was the morning of the departure. Miroku drove Sango and Kagome to school early that morning and Inuyasha had some of his drivers drive back Miroku's car and his own car back home. There were two busses in total and the students were lined up with their duffle bags, waiting to get seated.
"Alright seniors," said Principal Myoga. "You shall sit with your cabin mates on the ride to and from your resort. You can rent ski equipment from the resort but I see that some of you brought your own pair of skating skates." He said. Kagome, Sango, Miroku and Inuyasha along with a few other students brought their own skates.
"Today is a default day," said the second teacher, Kaguya-sensei, "today doesn't count towards your two week stay. Tomorrow is considered Day 1."
Everybody nodded.
"Alright, I want students from cabin 1 to 13 in Bus 1 and students from cabins 14 to 26 in bus 2." She said. Everybody got into the busses and sat with their cabin mates. Kagome and Inuyasha threw their bags to the ground and sat down, Kagome taking window seat and Inuyasha beside her.
"This is gonna be a long two weeks," Inuyasha whispered to Kagome who smiled at him.
They arrived at the ski resort by noon and everybody was tired, sitting in a bus for 4 hours really does hurt your butt. They all went to their respective cabins for a nap before they start exploring the place, hey! Why not just have fun today, even if it is default day.
Kagome and Inuyasha opened the door to their cabin and saw what the teacher had meant. They saw a queen sized bed in the middle of the cabin along with tables, a window and a few chairs.
"My bed is smaller then that." Kagome whispered as she put her bag on the floor. Inuyasha chuckled as he put his bag on the floor as well.
"They have central heater." Kagome said in awe as she poked the machine.
"Well it is the beginning of December, they're really gonna let us freeze to death." Inuyasha teased.
"Shut up," Kagome said as she lay down in bed.
"Instead of eating, wanna just sleep the rest of the day?" Inuyasha asked. Kagome yawned. "It'll be my pleasure," She said. Inuyasha locked the door as Kagome crawled into bed; she took off her jacket and mitts before pulling the blanket up to her chin. Inuyasha got in beside her and wrapped his arm around Kagome's waist.
"Sleep tight," She whispered.
'I will, now that you're in my arms.' Inuyasha thought as he stared at the angel that was snuggling with him.
Ski Trip: Day 1 – Ice Skating and Snowball Fights
It was official. Kagome and Inuyasha locked their cabin and close the blinds whenever they go to sleep. Miroku and Sango groaned as they knocked on the door for the billionth time.
"Dammit! It's almost noon and they're still sleeping?" Miroku asked, totally shocked.
"They must be really tired. I mean when was the last time they slept in peace? Either worrying about school or people figuring it out, or their songs."
"I guess you're right," Miroku said as he knocked on the door again. This time Inuyasha opened the door with a glare planted on his face.
"What- do- you- WANT?" He roared.
"For you and your Sweetheart to come out and play." Miroku said.
Inuyasha rubbed the back of his neck as he looked at his wrist watch. It read 11:27am. "Oh fuck, we slept for that long?" he asked.
"Amazingly yes, and I figure that you two slept when we arrived yesterday that's why you didn't come to the main cabin for dinner?" Sango asked.
"Yeah," Inuyasha said sheepishly.
"What a log, c'mon, we'll meet you at the skating arena." Miroku said.
"What cabin are Naraku and Kagura in?" Inuyasha asked.
"Cabin 20." Sango said.
"So they're on the other side of the resort?" Inuyasha asked raising a brow.
"Fortunately yes, now hurry! There's a bathroom in the main cabin so you two can go wash up there. Hurry up!" Sango cried as her and Miroku walked in the direction of the skating arena with their skates at hand.
Inuyasha shut the cabin door and turned around to see his Sweetheart sitting up on the bed, fixing her hair.
"Morning," She said.
"Morning Sweetheart," Inuyasha greeted as he sat down in the bed beside her.
"Sango and Miro?" Kagome asked as she looked at Inuyasha.
"Yeah, something about going to the ice arena with them."
"Then let's get our stuff and go, I wanna have fun these two weeks, I didn't pay them to sleep."
"It was a nice night though; you have to admit that much."
"It was, but I always sleep in the same bed as you." Kagome mumbled as she got up and got her jacket on. She grabbed some clothes and her ice skates before turning to face Inuyasha.
"I'll meet you at the arena."
Inuyasha nodded as he lay back down on the bed as Kagome left. He rubbed his face, thinking of things that were recently happening.
'Kami-sama you're torturing me.' He thought as he got up, grabbed his stuff and went to the main cabin to get ready.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome, Miroku and Sango were the only ones on the ice rink. Everybody else decided to go skiing today so them four were lucky they got the entire rink to themselves. Kagome and Sango laughed as they chased Miroku around the Rink.
"You'll never catch me!" He teased. But then he bumped into somebody and fell to the ground. Kagome and Sango caught up and helped him up. "We caught you!" They shrieked.
"Gee, thanks Inuyasha." Miroku muttered seeing his friend in front of him.
"No big," Inuyasha smirked.
"Did we forget to tell you that we're the top skaters?" Sango said as she held Miroku's hand.
"Nuh uh, we are! We've been singing, taking karate, and ice skating since we were little. We're in perfect sync." Kagome said as she held Inuyasha's hand.
"Ok then, we'll have a contest. Miroku and I'll go first, and then you two." Sango said. Kagome and Inuyasha grinned as they went to the bleachers and sat down. They were waiting for Miroku and Sango to begin.
"They can never beat us." Kagome whispered to him.
"I wanna see them try and beat us." Inuyasha chuckled.
The two skaters did do pretty well. Sango did a triple spin and Miroku caught in around the waist, he then spun her around him as Sango used only one foot to skate.
"Amateurs," Kagome snorted.
"Don't be mean Kagome." Inuyasha laughed.
"But it's true, can you see the way Sango lands, you can tell she hasn't been doing this for a long time."
Just then Miroku and Sango finished and walked to the bleachers to greet the two. "Beat that," Miroku grinned.
"No problem." Inuyasha said as Kagome followed him to the ice. Miroku and Sango exchanged evil smirks as they stared at the two that were on the ice. They started skating as Miroku quietly took off his skates. He picked up his boots and put them on and crept away from the bleachers when he was sure Inuyasha and Kagome couldn't see them. Sango made sure to cover for him in case the two finished earlier then planned. Miroku made it to the gate the opened the bleachers to the ice rink. He shut it and locked it from the outside so Inuyasha and Kagome wouldn't be able to exit.
He made it back to Sango and she gave him the thumbs up. "Done." He whispered.
"Good." She replied. Inuyasha and Kagome finished and they were extraordinary. Sango got up and stretched. "Time to get food, let's go Miroku."
Inuyasha and Kagome frowned as they went to the gate and tried to open in. It wouldn't budge.
"Oh no," Kagome said.
"They didn't."
"I think they just did."
"MIROKU!" Inuyasha roared as he pounded against the gate. Kagome sighed as she skated to the opposite of the rink and sat down on the ice. Inuyasha followed her and sat down.
"Somebody will eventually come around," Inuyasha said.
"Or we can just use the second gate." Kagome grinned. Inuyasha looked at the gate beside him that was ajar.
"Oh you're evil,"
"You won't think that when I'm done with them today." Kagome said as she stood up and walked into the bleachers. Inuyasha followed her. They both walked to where they put their boots and quickly changed. They quietly made it to their cabin, put their boots away and made it to the first place they thought Sango and Miroku would be, the main cabin.
"So what're you gonna do?" Inuyasha asked.
"Just run in and say that I fainted and now I'm rushed to the hospital. They'll be too preoccupied they'll forget they locked us in the ice arena. You do that, and I'll do my part."
Inuyasha grinned. He messed up his hair and ran inside.
Kagome looked through the window and saw Inuyasha in hysterics. She saw Sango stand up with a worried expression as well as Miroku.
'Revenge,' Kagome thought as she bent down and made a snowball with the snow that had fallen that night.
"Where is she?" Kagome heard Sango talk as they ran out of the main cabins.
"In our cabin." Inuyasha said. As Miroku and Sango started running there, Kagome jumped out from the shadows with an evil glare on her face.
"Revenge is sweet," She hollered a she chucked the snowball at Sango's face. Sango stood there, totally dumbstruck. She didn't know what hit her, ok maybe she did but she still was surprised.
"Oh no, you didn't," Sango said finally recovering from the shock. Kagome screamed and started running as Sango chased after her with a snowball in her hands.
"Girls," Miroku shook his head. He turned around and saw Inuyasha standing there with fire around him.
"I mean,"
"DIE HOUSHI!" Inuyasha roared as he ran after Miroku with a snowball in his hands.
"MOOOMMMMYYYYYYYYYY!" Miroku cried as he tired his best to run away from Inuyasha.
And thus, War of the Snowballs has begun. Kagome managed to get Sango with 12 snowballs and Sango only got 5 direct hits onto Kagome. Miroku didn't, sadly, get any on Inuyasha and Inuyasha made uncountable hits on Miroku.
Finally, after what seemed of forever of snowballs hurtling in each direction, the four combatants lay on the snow in front of their cabins, panting.
"That was fun," Kagome breathed.
"That was harsh," Sango said.
"I want my mommy." Miroku said for the trillionth time.
"Shut up bouzou." Inuyasha growled.
"What now?" Kagome asked as she started making snow angels. Inuyasha checked his wrist watch and saw it was 7pm.
"Dinner time," Inuyasha said as they got up. Kagome stretched. "Good, I'm hungry."
They arrived at the main cabin to see students filling in and getting food.
"What're they serving today?" Kagome asked.
"Mashed potato, gravy, carrots and broccoli with any pop." Miroku said.
"Ew, broccoli." Kagome made a gagging face as they went to get the food. Inuyasha bought a pack of Doritos from the vending machine and then got his food. Inuyasha, Miroku, Kagome, Sango, Ayame, Kouga, Souten and Shippo all sat down together.
"So what did you guys do today?" Kagome asked Ayame, Kouga, Souten and Shippo.
"We went skiing. You should see the professional slope." Shippo said shuddering.
"We went skating." Miroku said.
"And had a snowball fight." Kagome laughed. Inuyasha coughed as he ate his Doritos. Everybody laughed as they continued eating. After, around 10pm, it was lights out since it gets dangerous when people go out when it was late night at the resort. Inuyasha and Kagome had changed into sleeping gear before getting into bed.
"Today was fun ne?" Kagome said as she wrapped her arms around Inuyasha's torso.
"It was, what about tomorrow?" Inuyasha asked.
"We go skiing." Kagome replied.
"We haven't seen much of Naraku today," Inuyasha said.
"He was probably hiding. I mean I have Inuyasha, Miroku and Kouga on my side and he has nobody."
Inuyasha chuckled as he kissed her forehead. "Night Sweetheart,"
"Night Yashie," Kagome said as a blush tinted her cheeks.
Ski Trip: Day 2 – Skiing and Tripping
Kagome woke up before the sun rose. She stretched and saw Inuyasha sleeping cutely on the bed, his hair was messed up and some of his bangs were covering his eyes. Kagome giggled.
'He's so cute,' she thought as she moved the bangs off of his face. She then leaned forward and place a soft butterfly kiss on his lips. He fidgeted a bit before grabbed Kagome's pillow and digging his face into it.
Kagome shook her head as she got up and got some of her stuff. She turned and faced Inuyasha as she quietly changed her clothes. He snored a bit and Kagome suppressed the giggled. Nobody was allowed out of their cabins until the sun finally rose so Kagome got comfortable in a seat and stared at Inuyasha.
'Oh god, I love him way too much but he loves Kikyo,' Kagome sighed as she studied his rough, broad, tight features. She sighed, 'Wonder what he's dreaming of.'
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Finally, we can get married Inuyasha," said a beautiful girl with midnight black hair. Inuyasha smiled as he wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. "Yes, now that Naraku and she are out of the way,"
The girl giggled as she lightly slapped his rock hard chest. "I love you so much Yashie."
"I love you too," He whispered as he lightly leaned forward and kissed her softly on the lips.
Flash forward—WEDDING
Inuyasha waited for his bride to come out. The wedding bells rung, the bridal music began and a wondrous white goddess stepped out from behind the doors.
Inuyasha felt his chin go wet as Miroku chuckled. He shut his mouth for Inuyasha as Sango smiled at the two.
'My wedding,' he thought as he stared at his bride.
Inuyasha forgot everything, as soon as his bride arrived. For when the priest spoke, for when he said his vows, he didn't know. All he knew was her beauty.
"Do you, Takahashi Inuyasha take ----- to be your lawfully wedded wife?" said the priest. Inuyasha growled as he heard a loud sound block out her name.
"I do."
"Do you Hi-"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"GET UP!" Kagome roared one more time as she pushed Inuyasha off of the bed. A foghorn blew a little while ago signaling that everybody was allowed to exit the cabins now.
"WHY'D YOU DO THAT?" Inuyasha roared. 'Damn, I couldn't figure out who she was,' he thought.
"Ok fine," Kagome said as she stood up and opened the door. Without looking back, she slammed the door shut.
"What did I do?" He questioned, rubbing his aching head.
"Dammit, who was she?" He thought. All he caught was the 'Hi' part… either it was Hiromi Kikyo… or Higurashi Kagome…
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome, Sango, Miroku, Ayame, Shippo, Kouga and Souten had breakfast and were ready to rent their skiing gear as Inuyasha made it to the main cabin.
"Morning sleepyhead." Miroku said.
"Shut up," Inuyasha growled.
"What happened?" Ayame asked.
"I woke him up because I wanted to go skiing early today, but he kind of burned out on me." Kagome shrugged as she got up and let Inuyasha sit in her seat. She took her plate to the counter and stretched.
"Alright, I'm off!" She squealed.
"Don't go too far, we don't want Naraku getting you." Sango said sternly.
Kagome giggled. "No worries," She said as she was about to leave but Miroku stood up.
"Either way, I'm coming with you. You guys come when you're ready." Miroku said as he followed Kagome out of the main cabin.
"You guys doubled security around her thanks to Narkau," Souten observed.
"Well, he is a psycho ex." Sango shuddered.
"So when are you hooking up with Miroku?" Ayame wiggled her eyebrows. Sango blushed. "I- uh- dunno what you're talking about."
"Right," Shippo snorted as he got up to go skiing.
"Dude, everybody is against me." Sango said as Inuyasha finished eating. They all went to the ski lifts and rented skis before going onto the slopes.
"Which slope would Kagome and Miroku be on?" Inuyasha asked.
"Intermediate." Sango said as Kouga, Ayame, Souten, Shippo and Inuyasha followed her there. Indeed, Miroku and Kagome were there and they were sitting on the ground, waiting for the gang to arrive.
"About time," Kagome said as she stood up. Everybody laughed. "Let's go?" Kouga asked.
"Race you down Sango," Kagome grinned.
"Oh you're on." Sango laughed as the two friends started skiing down the slope.
"My money's on Kagome," Miroku said.
"No, Sango's definitely," Shippo replied.
"Kagome for sure." Inuyasha said as he looked at the two girls racing down the hill.
"Two counts on Kagome, let's see who wins." Kouga said as the entire group raced down the hill in time to see Kagome whoop for joy.
"It's Kagome," Miroku and Inuyasha gave each other a high five.
"I won! I won! I won! I WON!" Kagome chanted over and over again as Sango glared at her. "Just because you tripped me it doesn't mean much." She growled.
"Oh but it does dear Sango-chan." Kagome said waving the stick in her face. "I WON!" She screamed again.
"Oh you're dead!" Sango screamed as Kagome shrieked. Sango tackled Kagome to the ground and shoved snow down her shirt.
"COLD! COLD! DAMN YOU SANGO THAT'S COLD!" Kagome screamed.
"That's what you get for cheating!"
"What about you locking us in the ice arena yesterday?" Kagome raised a brow.
"You and Inuyasha killed us in our snowball fights."
"Oi, I dubbed it War of the Snowballs." Miroku said.
"Totally ripping it from War of the Worlds, I'm sure." Inuyasha chuckled.
"Shut up,"
Kagome smirked a new idea forming in her head. 'Perfect,' she finalized the plan. She turned to Inuyasha and held out her hand.
"If you beat me at the Professional slope, then you get the bed tonight, if you don't, I get the bed." Kagome said. Inuyasha connected his hand with Kagome's. "Deal."
"Now this, I gotta see." Souten said as they all followed Kagome and Inuyasha to the Prof Slope. The two got a ski lift up and were finally let down.
"My bets on Inuyasha," Sango said.
"No, Kagome for this one," Miroku said slowly.
"Inuyasha for sure," Kouga said as he saw Inuyasha take the lead.
"Kagome," Souten smiled.
"Kagome," Ayame said lowly.
"Inuyasha." Shippo replied.
"Three for Yasha and three for Kagome, tough." Sango said as the two were neck to neck until…
"SHE TRIPPED HIM!" Miroku said aghast.
"YAY KAGOME!" Ayame and Souten shrieked as Kagome waved to them before finished her round. Inuyasha got off of the ground and started screaming at Kagome.
"Ouch, a singer and his voice." Kouga winced.
"We're all singers here." Souten reminded her friend.
"Not Miroku and Sango, for sure." Shippo said.
"Here comes our champ." Miroku said.
"By cheating, I assure you." Sango winked.
"Shut up! I WON!" She screamed.
"BY CHEATING!" Inuyasha roared.
"You keep thinking that Takahashi," Kagome winked at him.
"She's evil, I swear." Inuyasha shook his head in her direction.
"That's what you get for cabin matting with Higurashi Kagome," Kagome made the peace sign with her gloves.
"It was the school who decided it, not you." Ayame reminded her.
"You're on my side, not his!" Kagome pouted.
"I love you too!" Ayame hugged her friend.
"How about some random ski time?" Shippo suggested.
"Stay away from Kagome," Miroku teased.
"Shut up Houshi!" Kagome growled.
'Major Inuyasha mode there,' Sango thought as they all started down the slopes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome and Inuyasha were talking in their cabin later that evening. Kagome was sitting on the bed beside Inuyasha with their lamps on. Kagome and Inuyasha were sitting under the blankets, just talking about life…
"Remember the time I cried because I didn't want to take a bath without you?" Kagome laughed.
"Oh yeah, that's back when you were 6 right?" Inuyasha chuckled.
"Yeah, it was sad because it was Sesshomaru giving us the baths." Kagome giggled.
"Poor Fluffy," Inuyasha shook his head.
"Oh, oh, remember the time we were selling cookies," Kagome grinned.
"I had to sign autographs for people to actually buy us candy, 'Get an autograph from the Takahashi Inuyasha if you buy a chocolate bar!'" Inuyasha imitated Kagome. Kagome giggled as she slapped his hand. "I do not sound like that!"
"You're right, you sound worse!"
"Ah! What about the time you had to baby sit Shiori."
"Oh god and she was half teething." Inuyasha winced.
"I had to help you there buddy, she chewed your fingers half the time."
"I was only 6," Inuyasha bit.
"And Sesshomaru was helping you."
"He needs practice with baby Mina." Inuyasha laughed.
Kagome shook her head, "You…"
A foghorn was heard signaling lights out. Inuyasha turned off the night lamp and pulled the blanket over him and Kagome, "Night Sweetheart,"
"Night Yashie." Kagome yawned as she snuggled in his chest.
'My sweetheart,'
Ski Trip: Day 3 – Snowmen
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Finally, we can get married Inuyasha," said a beautiful girl with midnight black hair. Inuyasha smiled as he wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. "Yes, now that Naraku and she are out of the way,"
The girl giggled as she lightly slapped his rock hard chest. "I love you so much Yashie."
"I love you too," He whispered as he lightly leaned forward and kissed her softly on the lips.
Flash forward—WEDDING
Inuyasha waited for his bride to come out. The wedding bells rung, the bridal music began and a wondrous white goddess stepped out from behind the doors.
Inuyasha felt his chin go wet as Miroku chuckled. He shut his mouth for Inuyasha as Sango smiled at the two.
'My wedding,' he thought as he stared at his bride.
Inuyasha forgot everything, as soon as his bride arrived. For when the priest spoke, for when he said his vows, he didn't know. All he knew was her beauty.
"Do you, Takahashi Inuyasha take Hi-"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The foghorn signaling you can leave your cabins blew through the entire resort and Inuyasha woke from the dream again not knowing who his bride was. Kagome stirred awake beside him and stifled a yawn.
"Nice night?" Kagome asked finally.
"I guess," Inuyasha sighed.
"What's wrong?"
"Nothing- so what's our plan today?" Inuyasha asked eager to change the subject.
"I really don't know, what do you have planned?"
"Well, we could have a snowman making competition."
Kagome giggled. "Are you serious?"
"Dead serious,"
"Alright then, I'll round up the oth-"
"No," Inuyasha said as he put a finger to her lips.
"No?"
"I want this to be an only us project."
Kagome raised a brow. "Only us?"
Inuyasha nodded. "Because tomorrow we start our Operation, Get Naraku so might as well spend the last day before we get really busy, together."
Kagome smiled as she got her water bottle from the night stand and guzzled it down. "Ok fair enough,"
"Great, we'll get dressed and use the excuse of… of…"
"I'll use the excuse that I'm in heat," Kagome grinned.
"And I'll say that I need to find something in my duffle bag." Inuyasha grinned.
"So then we're set?" Kagome laughed.
"We're set,"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The plan went exactly how they hoped it did. Inuyasha and Kagome managed to make it back to the cabin as everybody else went skiing again. Kagome put on her mitts and met Inuyasha behind their cabin where he managed to get two soft spots of snow and ice.
"We get half an hour ok?" Inuyasha asked.
"Ok,"
"Starting… now!"
The two started rolling snow and packing it together. They had two carrots from the Main cabin and some twigs. Kagome had some rocks for his face and Inuyasha would draw his face on. Kagome finished the lower body and started on the upper body only to find that Inuyasha was already on the head.
"How'd you do that?" Kagome asked surprised.
"Skills Kagome," Inuyasha grinned.
"You cheated."
"Like how you cheated yesterday when we were skiing?" Inuyasha raised a brow.
"That was hardly called cheating." Kagome sniffed.
"Right, it was just, extending the rules,"
"Exactly!"
"Riiight Kagome," Inuyasha rolled his eyes.
"Don't you find it odd that Naraku didn't do anything the past two days?" Kagome asked.
"I guess," Inuyasha replied.
"I mean, he was all 'you're coming to the winter fest with me' before our trip and now he's laying in a low profile, makes no sense."
"Anything with Naraku, never did make sense." Inuyasha snorted. They finished making their snowmen and found that it was a tie.
"Nice," Kagome said as she high kicked Inuyasha's snowman. He frowned. "HEY!" he went to her snowman and punched it.
"Oi! Don't be hating on a snowman that looks better than you,"
"Better?"
Inuyasha looked at Kagome and his breath caught in his throat. Her cheeks were tinted pink from the cold and her lips were rosy from the cold. She was panting because kicking the snowman in the cold weather took a lot out of her.
'Oh dammit! NO! Dammit CONTROL!' Inuyasha thought as he reached for Kagome. Kagome glided into his warm welcoming arms as he planted his cold lips onto hers and quickly slipped his tongue in when he had the moment.
Kagome opened her lips to Inuyasha as she moved her hands behind his neck. She rested her arms on his shoulders as his lips coaxed his. She moaned as he roughened the kiss. Be it cold or polar cold, nothing mattered because this kiss heated everything up. You could literally see the snow melting around the two as their tongues battled for dominance. Kagome pressed her body against his as his hands traveled to her lower back and pushed her towards him.
After a few seconds, they pulled back for air as they stared at each other.
'I love you,' Kagome thought as Inuyasha's lips found his way to hers again.
'I love her,' Inuyasha realized as his lips ravished hers.
'I- it's… I love Kagome,' Inuyasha thought as they kissed for the third time.
'Kagome,' he thought one more time as their kiss intensified.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"What a cute couple, a shame she doesn't belong to him, but to me." Growled a greasy haired freak.
"Naraku, leave it alone! You can never get her!" Kagura screamed at her brother.
"Oh can't I?" Naraku said as he shoved his sister out of the way before going back to his cabin.
'Stay safe Kagome, Inuyasha,' Kagura thought as she followed her brother.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inuyasha and Kagome retreated to their cabins and lay down in bed beside each other.
"Turn down the heater," Kagome said.
"Kiss to hot for you?"
"That was anything but friendly." Kagome shot as she rubbed her temples.
"Very funny, wanna go down to eat? It's 2 now."
"Not hungry," Kagome said.
"We totally blew off the gang today,"
"To be making out after making snowmen?" Kagome raised a brow.
"That's one way to put it." Inuyasha chuckled.
"Har, har, my sides are splitting."
Inuyasha sat on the bed with Kagome. "So, what's new?"
"Can't wait until Mina is born." Kagome squealed.
"I hope she takes more after… wait no… oh damn that's hard." Inuyasha shook his head.
"What?"
"If she takes after Rin, she'd be hyper, if she takes after Sesshomaru, she'd be gay."
"That's mean!"
"But it's true,"
Kagome yawned as she leaned into Inuyasha's chest. "So what do we do tomorrow?"
"We just do what we planned, I mean who else knows that Naraku did that?"
"You didn't tell me, how did you know?"
"After he tried to rape you, I put a private investigator on his case. I did figure out some things."
"And blackmail is the only way to get through to him? What if he uses blackmail against blackmail?"
"Then this baby is going on the internet." Inuyasha grinned.
"But-"
"Listen, sooner or later, the world is gonna figure out who my Sweetheart is, so it really doesn't matter."
Kagome sighed. "I guess, so what now?"
"Wanna go eat?"
"No, I wanna sleep."
"Alright, I'll go eat," Inuyasha said as he got up and left.
"I love you," Kagome whispered as he shut the door…
Inuyasha's eyes widened. 'What?' he thought. He opened the door again to see Kagome falling asleep.
'Did I just hear her say that… she loves me?'
Inuyasha shook his head, "Must've been the wind." He thought as he went to greet his friends.
Ski Trip: Day 4 – Hot Chocolate
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Finally, we can get married Inuyasha," said a beautiful girl with midnight black hair. Inuyasha smiled as he wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. "Yes, now that Naraku and she are out of the way,"
The girl giggled as she lightly slapped his rock hard chest. "I love you so much Yashie."
"I love you too," He whispered as he lightly leaned forward and kissed her softly on the lips.

Inuyasha forgot everything, as soon as his bride arrived. For when the priest spoke, for when he said his vows, he didn't know. All he knew was her beauty.
"Do you, Takahashi Inuyasha take Higurashi Kagome to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do."
"Do you, Higurashi Kagome take Takahashi Inuyasha to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I-"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Inuyasha woke up gasping for air. 'Kagome? It was KAGOME?' He thought looking at the angel beside him. She was sleeping so peacefully it was so serene…
The foghorn had blown earlier that morning but Inuyasha and Kagome somehow managed to sleep through it. It was now 3pm and Kagome was stirring a bit, waking up slowly. Inuyasha moved the bangs off of her face as she looked up at him. "What time is it?" She rasped.
"3,"
"Am or pm?" Kagome asked.
"Pm."
"Oh man," Kagome said as she got up, rubbing her neck.
"We are heavy sleepers."
"Or maybe we just enjoy sleeping at the moment." Kagome sighed as she wiggled her toes. Inuyasha chuckled as he lay down back in bed with his arms wrapped around her waist.
"Why didn't Miroku and Sango come and wake us up?" Inuyasha asked.
"They think I'm in 'heat' at the moment." Kagome yawned.
"Oh yeah, so what do we do today?"
"Relax," Kagome groaned.
"Don't we get Naraku today?" Inuyasha asked.
"Save that for tomorrow," Kagome said as she got off of the bed. Inuyasha chuckled as he followed Kagome all the way to the main cabin. Today, everybody was mostly ice skating and others took taxis to the mall that was a few miles down. The resort was half empty as it was so Inuyasha and Kagome made it to the main cabin without being detected.
They brushed their teeth and took quick showers before getting out and sitting on the sofas. The main cabin was empty except for the people who served food. It was now close to 4pm and everybody would be returning. Kagome stretched. "Damn, if I had known I paid so much money to sleep,"
Inuyasha laughed. "And you're still tired?"
Kagome nodded. "Very much,"
"And you're going to bed at what time tonight?"
"10,"
"Damn you lazy woman! You never sleep this much back at home,"
"That's because back at home, it isn't constantly cold!"
"Every winter it gets cold!"
"Stop being smart." Kagome grumbled.
Inuyasha turned on the radio to hear Mr. Wonderful come on.
"Oh c'mon! The solo now?" Kagome sighed.
"Quote of our friends, You two are the hottest signers around, unquote." Inuyasha chuckled.
"Oh shut up, gimme some hot chocolate." Kagome said as Inuyasha got up. Kagome stretched on the sofa and opened a magazine when she heard the door open. Both Inuyasha and Kagome turned to see Naraku and Kagura walk in.
"Afternoon Kagura," Kagome greeted.
"You slept in that late?" Kagura's eyes widened.
"That's Kagome alright," Inuyasha said.
"So Kagome, what are you wearing for our Winter Fest date?" Naraku asked devilishly.
"None of your business," Kagome said as she got her cup of hot chocolate thanks to Inuyasha.
"But if you're my date, I have every right to know." Naraku sneered.
"Fuck off," Inuyasha cursed.
"Fuck off? Inuyasha, fucking is what I intend to do," Naraku cackled as he left the cabin. Kagura sat down beside Kagome and sighed. "That stupid bastard," She growled.
"Calm down Kagura," Kagome said.
"But he's so self centered!"
"But we have a plan, tell me Kagura, does Naraku hate… ballet?" Inuyasha smirked.
Kagura instantly started laughing.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The rest of the day, Kagome, Inuyasha and Kagura chilled, until Miroku, Sango Kouga, Ayame, Souten and Shippo arrived. Kagome hugged them all and had a little conversation with Sango.
Kagome and Sango sat in the corner of the cabin as Sango confronted Kagome. "It's not your period. We always time together and mine doesn't start until next week."
Kagome sighed. "I guess you're right,"
"Just wanted to spend time with Inuyasha?"
"Yeah."
"Tell me, do you like him?"
Kagome nodded.
"Like… or love?"
Kagome blushed like a tomato.
"I'll take that as love," Sango squealed as she hugged her friend.
"But he likes Kikyo,"
"And that's why he gives you 'friendly lip kisses'." Sango snorted. Kagome laughed. "I can always count on you."
Sango grinned. "You bet, now time for hot chocolate!"
Ski Trip: Day 5 – Point your Toes Naraku
Today was the day… to get Naraku. Inuyasha didn't have the dream again this night so he didn't figure out if Kagome said yes or no. He looked down at Kagome, her head resting against his chest and his arm wrapped around her waist. He smiled, a blush rising to his face.
'She so beautiful,' he thought as he nuzzled her neck.
"Unnh," She groaned.
"Get up," He said.
"Five more minutes Buyo," Kagome mumbled.
"I'm not Buyo and you don't get 5 minutes! We overslept so much yesterday, we get up in time for Operation, Get Naraku."
Kagome instantly got up. "Oh yeah!"
"Get ready, everything begins at noon." Inuyasha said as he got up. Kagome got up, got her stuff, put on her jacket and ran to the main cabin. Inuyasha go this stuff and followed her shortly after. They got dressed and ate and now they were going to go skiing again.
"Sango, I'll beat you!" Kagome teased.
"No tripping this time." Sango growled as the two girls started racing down the hill. "Bets on Sango this time." Inuyasha said.
"No, Kagome's a good skier without cheating." Miroku said as he watched his two close friends ski down the hill.
"Kagome won, and Sango just fell on a rock," Ayame laughed as they all started skiing down the hill until…
"HOLY FUCK! KAGOME!" Miroku roared. Sango got up just in time to see Naraku yank Kagome deep into the forest that surrounded the resort.
"OH NO HE DIDN'T!" Kouga roared as Inuyasha, Miroku and Kouga all followed Naraku into the forest.
"If he touches her, that fucker will die tonight." Kouga roared. Inuyasha noted that Kouga was protective of Kagome, just like how Miroku is.
'I guess she's like a sister to both of them.' He thought as they followed the muffled screams and ski tracks.
"Kouga, you keep lookout, we'll go in deeper." Miroku said.
"Why don't I just get a teacher?" Kouga asked.
"And draw more attention? Naraku probably wants to keep this personal," Inuyasha growled, 'and so do I.' he added mentally. They found Naraku by a tree with Kagome in his arms with a frightened look.
"What kind of idiot are you? Did you want us to see you take her?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yes, in fact I did. I want you to tell me that she is mine and you will never, ever protect her against me." Naraku smirked.
"And then the world knows," Miroku grinned.
"What?" Naraku's smirk faltered as a frown dawned to his features.
"I mean, we were planning on telling everybody that Kagome is Sweetheart this winter fest, but well…" Inuyasha trailed off.
"But well what?" Naraku asked.
"Point our toes Naraku, keep your stomach in Naraku, jump higher Naraku," Miroku said in a high pitched voice.
Naraku's eyes widened. "Where the fuck…"
"After you tried to rape Kagome, I got cameras installed everywhere you went. I never knew you were such a beautiful ballet dancer Naraku," Inuyasha laughed.
"You say what!"
"Let Kagome go and we won't post this," Miroku took out a small cassette from his pocket, "on the internet."
"Or sell it on eBay." Inuyasha added.
Naraku let go of Kagome who ran towards Inuyasha. "Fine bastard," Naraku growled
"And you will never, ever threathen Kagome," Inuyasha said.
"I'll reveal her identity, just you wait." Naraku cackled as he left the three. Just as he was about to disappear he turned around and said, "you're still my damn date Kagome."
"Can't get anybody else?" Miroku teased as Naraku was gone.
"Can I go back to our cabin?" Kagome said softly.
"Sure, Miroku we want the rest of the day to ourselves." Inuyasha said.
"Are your really gonna tell everybody about her?" Miroku whispered.
"Not now,"
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome sat on Inuyasha's lap as he hugged her from behind. They were both sitting on the bed and the sun was starting to set.
"That was freaky,"
"But he is off your back for now," Inuyasha murmured.
"I hope." Kagome sighed.
"He won't get you Kagome, not with me around." Inuyasha said tenderly as he stroked her hair.
"Promise?"
"I promise," He said softly as he kissed her neck, Kagome moved her neck for more access and Inuyasha slobbered her neck, giving herself and himself much of the pleasure they needed. After what seemed like enternity, the foghorn blew meaning lights out.
"Night Yashie,"
"Night Sweetheart,"
Ski Trip: Day 6 – Atchoo
Kagome woke up the next day shivering. She sneezed a few times before turning to see Inuyasha not beside her. Kagome groaned as she got up and took out her cell phone. It hadn't been working at all for the past 6 days.
'I have to call mama soon,' and Kagome sneezed again. She shivered a bit as she pulled the comforter up to her chin. She looked at her wrist watch to see it read 9am right now, the foghorn blew an hour ago and Inuyasha probably left to do something.
"Damn- atchoo- him." Kagome sniffled as she rubbed her nose. 'How did I get a cold?' she thought… then it dawned to her…
She took a quick shower yesterday but didn't dry her hair.
'Stupid me!' she thought. A few minutes later Inuyasha walked in and looked at Kagome.
"Morning," He said.
"Morn-atchoo!" Kagome sneezed.
"Oh, a cold?" He said, his eye brows furrowing.
"Yeb," Kagome said, her stuffy nose making it hard to talk.
"Do you wanna sleep all day today?" He asked.
"Yeb," Kagome nodded.
"I'll go get you hot chocolate and then tell the others your sick and not to bug you."
"Banks," Kagome sniffled.
"Banks? Ohh, you mean thanks."
"Shut ub," Kagome glared at him before snuggling in the comforter. Inuyasha chuckled as he left to get her some hot chocolate.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The others greeted Inuyasha as he reentered the main cabin. "Where's Kag?" Ayame asked.
"Down and done with a cold. Getting her some hot chocolate and I don't want any of you to bug her ok?"
"Yes sir." They all saluted him.
Inuyasha took the cup back to his cabin to see Kagome fallen asleep. He chuckled slightly as he put the cup beside her. It was in a cup warmer so it would stay warm for a long time. He placed a kiss on Kagome's cheek before leaving.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"Finally, we can get married Inuyasha," said a beautiful girl with midnight black hair. Inuyasha smiled as he wrapped his arms around her tiny waist. "Yes, now that Naraku and she are out of the way,"
The girl giggled as she lightly slapped his rock hard chest. "I love you so much Yashie."
"I love you too," He whispered as he lightly leaned forward and kissed her softly on the lips.
Flash forward—WEDDING
Inuyasha waited for his bride to come out. The wedding bells rung, the bridal music began and a wondrous white goddess stepped out from behind the doors.
Inuyasha felt his chin go wet as Miroku chuckled. He shut his mouth for Inuyasha as Sango smiled at the two.
'My wedding,' he thought as he stared at his bride.
Inuyasha forgot everything, as soon as his bride arrived. For when the priest spoke, for when he said his vows, he didn't know. All he knew was her beauty.
"Do you, Takahashi Inuyasha take Higurashi Kagome to be your lawfully wedded wife?"
"I do."
"Do you, Higurashi Kagome take Takahashi Inuyasha to be your lawfully wedded husband?"
"I do." Kagome said as she stared at Inuyasha.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Kagome woke up sweating…
'What was all that about?' she thought as she saw the sun starting to set…
Ski Trip: Day 7 – Snowed In
Kagome woke up feeling a hundred times better she stretched and saw Inuyasha standing beside the door with a solemn look on his face.
"What?" Kagome said with a raspy voice…
"We're snowed in…"
