14 - You've Got Mail!
Inuyasha and Kagome awoke in the morning to a thud from the room next door. "Pervert!" they heard a grogy Sango yell. Then all was quiet.
Inuyasha and Kagome looked at eachother, and quietly got out of bed, and snuck into the hallway. Creaking the door open slightly, they peaked into the room containing their friends. What they saw was Sango on the bed still asleep, clutching a pillow in her fist. And Miroku was asleep (or unconscious) on the floor, taking the comforter with him. They closed the door carefully, not making a sound.
When they got back into their room, Inuyasha sat on the bed. "Feh! You see? If that would have been me, I might have really killed him." He looked to Kagome, who was gazing longingly at the early morning sky. The sun was just rising, causing the clouds to turn several shades of orange, red, and pink. She sighed as her chocolate brown eyes glistened at the sight of the beautiful sun rise. Inuyasha came up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist, kissing her cheek lightly. "What's wrong, babe?"
She still kept her eyes on the horizon as she replied. "I don't know. I guess I just miss the outdoors." Inuyasha gave her an odd look at this. "Well, I mean we've been inside so much lately, I guess I just miss the freedom of going outside when ever I want..."
"Yeah, I miss that, too," he replied. Then he had an idea. He reached forward and unlatched the window, pushing it open in one movement.
"What are you doing?" Kagome asked as Inuyasha scooped her up in his arms, carrying her bridal style. He just grinned as he hopped out of the large window, soaring into the early morning air. "Inuyasha!" she yelled as he leaped into the air once again after landing. She tightened her grip around his neck. Even though she was scared, she couldn't hold back her joy. Here she was, nearly flying through the air in the arms of her lover with the sunrise on the horizon. What could be better?
They sped along, the cold morning air whipping at their faces. Kagome sqealed with delight as Inuyasha carried her higher and higher into the sky, then gently came back to earth, only to go up once again. He smiled at the look on her face. 'I hope you enjoy this, Gome.' Finally, Inuyasha stopped on top of a hill.
"Oh, Inuyasha!" Kagome proclaimed. From where they stood, the most magnificent veiw was spread out before them. The golden sun reflected on to a massive crystal lake, snow capped mountain lining the distance. "It's so beautiful!" she told him as she wrapped her arms around his neck and planted a quick kiss on his lips. He grinned at her.
'I wish I could take her out more often...' he thought as she ran to the farthest possible position to look out at the goregous scene. Her arms spread wide, as if to absorb the veiw into her very soul. She looked like an angel, with her wings out streched, ready to jump off the hill and fly away into the distance. He smiled at the happiness that radiated off her reached his heart, making it hard for him to breath. 'I love it when she's happy like this. If only we were normal... If only the world wasn't out for up... Then we would still be in school...' The thought had just hit him. "School!"
"Huh? What did you say, Inu?" Kagome said as she turned to face him, hef face flushed with the breeze of chilly morning air.
"Umm... Nothing, Gome." He couldn't tell her that they had missed nearly a month of school since they went into hiding. She was too happy right now. With a sigh, he went to her and wrapped her in a hug, bringing his face to meet her's. After a moment, she stood on her tip toes, deepining the kiss. They pulled apart for a moment, looking into eachother's eyes. Then they kissed again, and this time Inuyasha ran his tounge along her lips. Feeling her grin and hearing the light giggle as she opened her mouth gave him some confidence. He explored every inch of her mouth, as did she to him. They were so caught up in the tenderness and passion of the kiss, they both forgot to breathe. After what had to be a record time length, they pulled away, gasping for a breath and laughing into the air. Their laughs spread through the meadow and echoed through the mountains as the lover's lips met again, blanketed by the warmth of the golden sun as it beamed it's golden rays in happiness. They could have stayed there forever, just the two of them in the midst of nature at it's best.
But of coarse life came crashing back to them as the sky suddenly filled with gray clouds, and started pouring warm rain on top of their heads. They broke apart and looked up at the clouds, confused at to how they got there. But Kagome just smiled and laughed, sticking out her tounge and catching rain drops, easily swallowing them.
Inuyasha looked to her, then blushed furiously. Kagome couldn't figure out why he was nervous, then looked down. She was wearing a white shirt in the pouring rain, giving whoever was around a great veiw of her bra. She blushed and wrapped her arms around herself, covering herself. Inuyasha laughed and picked her up again, deciding it was time to go back. He leaped high into the air, practically ticklingthe clouds as he leaped back toward the one lone house out in the wilderness.
When Sango heard the rain start to pour, she went to the kitchen window and looked out. "Where are they?" she asked herself in an anxious tone. When she awoke that morning, she found herself alone on the bed, gripping a pillow in her hands. When she looked around, she found Miroku on the ground with their comforter, a good sized bump on his head. 'So he even gropes in his sleep...' she remembered thinking. Then she went to check on Inuyasha and Kagome, but found their room empty and the window open wide. When she told Kaede, she laughed and said they would probably be back soon. "It's been an hour." She sat at the kitchen table, resting her forehead in her palms.
"Oh, stay calm, my lovely," Miroku told her as he sat a cup of tea infront of her. "You know that Kagome is perfectly safe with Inuyasha. He'd rather die than see her get hurt." He sipped on his tea, his eyes closed to hide his own feelings. Really, he was quite worried too, but Sango was going ballistic. He felt sorry for Inuyasha when he got back.
"Yeah, I know..." she said as she picked up the tea and sniffed it. Seeing that it was very bitter, she picked up Kaede's bowl of sugar cubes and dumped them in the glass teacup. After taking a few sips, she relaxed.
"Come on now, let's watch some television," he said as he got up and placed his tea on the counter. Grabbing Miroku's out streched hand, she got up and sat her cup next to his. They went into the living room to find it empty and sat on the couch.
"Where's Kaede?" Sango asked as Miroku grabbed the remote control and flipped the television on.
"She said she was going into town for something. She'll be back in about an hour," he told her, flicking through channels to find something to watch. He stopped on the news, seeing that nothing else was on.
The news anchor shuffled his papers, and started his news report. "Good morning and welcome to channel 12 News, your only news who knows."
"Catchy slogan," Sango said sarcastically as he continued.
"Today's top story: four teens missing from Tokyo's public school, Futal High." At this both Miroku and Sango tensed up, knowing what was coming. "Inuyasha Tetsusaiga, Sango Taija, Miroku Houshi, and Kagome Higurashi have been missing since new year's eve after Ms. Higurashi's home burnt down, killing her mother, brother and grandfather. The other three also had practically no remaining living relatives. We caught up with Mr. Tetsusaiga's half brother, the wealthy owner of Tenseiga hotels, Mr. Sesshomaru Tenseiga himself." The upper right corner of the screen filled with a picture of Sesshomaru, emotionless as ever. "When we questioned him on why he didn't report his brother missing, here was his response."
The screen cut to Sesshomaru, looking slightly aggrivated. "My brother is an adult, so I treat him like one. I have no idea where he is." At that he walked away, looking destressed about something the reporter couldn't grasp.
"Despite Mr. Tenseiga's lack of enthusiasm to find his brother, we will continue the search for these four young souls." A screen split into four sections came up, each section highlighting a different member of their group. There was a picture, plus stats about them ranging from their name and age to the last place they were seen. "If you have any information concerning the wherabouts of these young men and women, please call 1-800-452..." At this Miroku flipped the television off.
Sango looked at him, sensing his discomfort with the program. Not that she felt comfortable watching herself on the missing persons report. She put her hand on his shoulder. "You okay?"
"Yeah," he replied, then looked at her and flashed his award winning smile. "I just had to turn it off, because I was tempted to call that number..."
Sango smiled and leaned against him, resting her head on his shoulder. "That's okay. I don't much like television anyway. Nothing good on anymore if you ask me."
"Well, then how about some music?" he said as he turned on the stereo with the remote. He smiled as he heard the beggining to the song 'YMCA'. 'I didn't think old Kaede would still be listening to this...' he thought, smiling wider. He got up, pulling Sango along with him. She laughed as she heard the lyrics begin.
Young man, there's no need to feel down.
I said, young man, pick yourself off the ground.
I said, young man, 'cause you're in a new town
There's no need to be unhappy.
They dances around the medium sized room, bumping into eachother as they belted the lyrics at the top of their lungs.
Young man, there's a place you can go.
I said, young man, when you're short on your dough.
You can stay there, and I'm sure you will find
Many ways to have a good time.
They both jumped onto the couch with their socked feet, preparing for the part they knew was coming up.
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
Their arms flew up, matching with the letters. They screamed the letters, not realizing they had an audience.
They have everything for you men to enjoy,
You can hang out with all the boys ...
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
Yet again, their arms made the shapes of the farmiliar letters as both of the crazed teenagers jumped from the couch on either side of the sturdy wood block coffee table. Sango gave Miroku a quick peck on the cheek, and both continued to dance around the room.
You can get yourself cleaned, you can have a good meal,
You can do whatever you feel ...
Young man, are you listening to me?
I said, young man, what do you want to be?
I said, young man, you can make real your dreams.
But you got to know this one thing!
They started doing the most ridiculous dances they could think of. Miroku's arms flailed around as he attempted the 'Swim', and Sango rocked her hips back and forth with the swinging motions of the 'Monkey', her fists flying up and down at different times.
No man does it all by himself.
I said, young man, put your pride on the shelf,
And just go there, to the Y-M-C-A.
I'm sure they can help you today.
Both teens jumped on top of the coffee table, too lost in the music to realize what they were doing. Their arms flew up once again.
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
They have everything for you men to enjoy,
You can hang out with all the boys ...
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
It's fun to stay at the Y-M-C-A!
Miroku jumped off the table, holding his arms out for Sango. She jumped, easily landing in the young man's embrace. They stopped moving as the music kept going with it's rythmic beat. Miroku stared into Sango's magenta eyes, knowing that those eyes were the only ones he ever need for the rest of his life. Suddenly Sango leaned in and kissed him. Miroku started massaging her lower back, making sure to stay a safe distance from her butt. He was not going to ruin this now.
She moaned at the movement on her sensitive back, and Miroku took the oppertunity to plunge his tounge into her mouth, kissing her hungrily. She was startled at first, then wrapped her arms around his neck and pulled him closer, making the kiss more intense. They stayed like this, lost to the rest of the world, including the eyes that watched them from the front porch.
Inuyasha and Kagome had been enjoying the crazy display by Sango and Miroku in the front living room from the deck. Then they started kissing and they moved away from the window, respecting the privacy they thought they had the whole time. He pick Kagome up and jumped to their now closed bedroom window, finding it still unlocked. Sliding it open, he entered and sat Kagome down. "Hehe... That looked like fun!" she said as she clapped her hands, still making sure to keep her arms securely infront of her chest.
"What? The dancing or the kissing..." Inuyasha practically purred as he approached her.
She frowned. "No. Not while I have wet clothes on." She went to the closet, hoping that Kaede had something that she could wear. During her search, she found a box that was labled 'To Inuyasha, Kagome, Miroku and Sango'. Deciding that since the box was really hers anyway, she opened it. What she found inside made her happy beyond belief. There were clothes; it looked like there were two or three outfits for each of them. When she sqealed with delight, Inuyasha came over, finding Kagome rooting through a cardboard box.
"What do you think you're doing wench? That's not yours!"
"Wanna bet?" she said as she showed him the lable. Then she grabbed an outfit. Making sure that it was her size (which it was), she made her way out the door and to the bathroom.
Inuyasha sighed, knowing that she would be in there forever. He picked up the box and sat it on their bed, and found himself some dry clothes. As he dressed, he found at the bottom of the box a letter that was addressed to him. It read,
Inuyasha,
Thought you guys might like some clean clothes, since the ones you're wearing are probably dirty beyond belief.
Love, Kagura
He snickered, then decided to go break up the love fest down stairs and tell them about the new clothes. Inuyasha snuck quietly out the door, then stopped by the bathroom. He sniffed the air, finding the scent of vanilla and fresh rain. A smile crossed his handsome features as he went downstairs.
Kagome entered the bathroom and looked in the mirror. Her hair was soaked and hung limply around her face, partially fallen out of the ribbon she normally kept it tied on. She took it down, then unlatched the jade necklace from around her neck and slipped the emerald stone ring off her finger. Her eyes glazed over as she remember getting the wonderful gifts from Inuyasha. The items in themselves were beautiful, but the thought behind them was even better. She slipped her shirt off, her bra also soaked. Sighing, she mentally was grateful she grabbed a pair of panties and a bra from the box along with her clothes.
Looking around, she saw a shower with some towels hanging over the bar. 'I wonder if Kaede would mind if I took a shower?' Not really caring about the answer, she discarded the rest of her wet clothes and climbed in the shower, making sure the water was hot. As she washed her hair with the herbal shampoo, she thought of her future with Inuyasha, the home that they would own, and the little kids they would have. 'Hehehe... Little Inuyasha's running around...' she paused as she saw three chibi Inuyasha's running around her, pulling on her skirt and scowling. She smiled. That would suit her just fine. 'Yet,' she thought as she picked up the conditioner and started slathering it in her raven hair, 'I might not have any future at all...'
After getting a smack from Sango and a sad look from Miroku for interrupting their make-out session on the couch, Inuyasha showed them the box of new clothes and the note that came with them. Sango was delighted and grabbed all the necesities of an outfit. After slaping Miroku for handing her lacy panties, she went upstairs to change into the fresh clothes. As she approached her room, she ran into Kagome coming out of the bathroom.
"Hey, Sango! Did you and Miroku have... fun?" she said mischeviously.
Sango smiled, and replied, "Yes... Oh Kagome, it was great! I'll tell you all about it later, just like you're gonna tell me how your morning with Inuyasha went..." Kagome blushed, and Sango laughed. "First I want to change my clothes."
"Do you wanna take a shower?" Kagome asked, pointing to the bathroom. "Kaede has some great herbal shampoos and soaps."
"That sounds like a great idea!" Sango said as she stepped into the bathroom. As she closed the door, she called out, "Don't think your going to get out of telling me every detail about this morning, Kagome Higurashi..."
Kagome just smiled and went downstairs, to find the guys in their new clothes, sprawled out on the couch, watching television. She kept herself where they couldn't see her, and since she just got out of the shower, she had a good feeling Inuyasha couldn't smell her.
"Come on Miroku," Inuyasha said. "Shavonda is totally hotter than Sarah!"
"No way! Besides, Sarah is always horny! What else could a guy want?"
"How about a girl with some morals and who doesn't want to screw a gay guy!"
Miroku was silent for a moment. "Good point."
She peaked around the corner to see that they were watching re-runs of 'The Real World: Philadelphia'. "Personally, I think that Sarah is just lonely." Kagome said as she stepped into veiw. The guys turned around, blushing from being caught talking about the girls on a reality show. "Hey, it's no big deal guys. I think Landon is hott myself." At that Inuyasha's ears dropped and he turned back to the television, where Willie and Sarah were asking MJ about a girl he brought home and had some 'alone time' with in the closet. "But he's nothing compared to my guy," Kagome said lovingly as she sat on his lap, giving him a kiss.
Seeing the display of affection, Miroku looked around, suddenly realizing that something was missing. "Hey, where's Sango?"
"Oh, she's taking a shower," Kagome replied as Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her waist, moving her over without taking her off his lap so he could see the show. He hadn't seen this episode yet.
"Really... Well, maybe she'll need some help washing her back..." he said quietly as he was about to sneak upstairs.
"Sit down now, pervert!" Kagome and Inuyasha commanded together, their attention now compleately on the show.
"Hehehe..." was all Miroku could say as he sat down and watched the end of the show.
By the time Kaede cane in to the house, Sango had come down from her shower and Miroku had been hit twice in the nogin, once from Sango for you know what, then once from Inuyasha for standing infront of the television screen. Now he and Sango were on the love seat, he laying down with his head in her lap as she pressed an ice pack to the place where Inuyasha had hit him. "Are you gonna be okay, Miroku?" Kagome questioned from her place next to Inuyasha, who was still concentrating on the screen.
"Oh, he's going to be fine," Sango replied when Miroku didn't. "But Inuyasha did hit him awful hard..." she said as she shot daggers at him through her eyes.
"Feh! He should have moved the first time I told him to!"
"I see ye have found the clothes in the closet," Kaede said, entering with three bags and a couple letters.
"Yeah," Kagome said. "I hope it's okay..." she said, blushing.
"I put it there for ye to find, child," she said in a calm tone with a smile. "Oh and Inuyasha?"
"Yeah?" he asked, eyes still on the television.
'Man, it doesn't take much to amuse him...' Kagome thought as she saw the intense look of concentration on his face.
"A letter came for ye from Kagura." After hearing this, everyone shot out of their seats. Miroku hit the ground, making a loud thud.
"Owwww..." he moaned as he got up and made his way to crowd around Inuyasha with Kagome and Sango, trying to read over his shoulder.
Suddenly, Inuyasha's eyes got really big and he dropped the letter, letting it flutter down to the ground. "Inuyasha? What is it?" Kagome asked as she pulled on his sleeve.
He gulped, then blinked and turned to her. Fear and sadness filled his eyes as he spoke his next sentence. "Sesshomaru and Kagura were discovered. They're dead."
