Chapter Five

College has Started

The Truth has been Uncovered

Inuyasha was busy studying his brains out when Miroku bursted into the dorm with a happy go lucky look on his face. Inuyasha didn't even phase to his friend/roommate he was used to it.

"Guess what's goin' down tonite, Yash."

"A buckload of studyin'." Inuyasha said not really paying attention to what Miroku was saying.

"Since when do YOU study.'' Miroku said breaking into a mirthful laughter.

Inuyasha was getting pissed off now. "Since Kagome our dear friend has been on me about my damn grades. I mean damn you'd think with different majors she'd pay attention to her studyin' and not mine. But NOOOO she has to be the great Kagome."

"She's been ON you….like IN and OUT IN and OUT." Miroku makes a female pleasure voice.

"You hentai. I would never take advantage of Kagome for one asshole unlike you." Inuyasha said in a matter of fact tone.

"Hey I didn't take advantage of Sango she wanted it and I wanted it so we….didn't I already tell you this story."

"You did with too many details so what were you saying."

"Oh yeah, there's gonna be a party and I was thinking you, me, Sango and Kagome should attend."

Inuyasha closed his English Lit textbook, put his pen down, and said "Yeah why not."

Miroku turned around and walked out. Inuyasha got up and stretched relieving some stress with a much deserved break. Inuyasha picked up his picture frame of Kikyo and stroked it with a clawed finger. Kikyo applied for a college away from his, Kagome said so she could cheat on him, but he said she wouldn't do that.

Inuyasha put it back on his desk and looked at a recent photo of Kagome. She wore a green top, jeans, jean jacket, and her hair hung loosely around her beautiful face. Simple. He thought such a difference from what Kikyo was wearing. She wore a dark blue designer top, with designer Fetish jeans, and the matching Fetish long coat. Her hair was in a Chinese bun pulled in the back, not a hair out of place.

Inuyasha plopped on his bed with Kagome's picture still in his hands. He closed his eyes and the night at that club came back as if it just happened. They kissed an innocently passionate kiss. Inuyasha opened his eyes and looked at his Kagome's picture again and smiled inwardly. He closed his eyes again and fell asleep to encounter a dream that he would never forget.

Dream Sequence

Kagome was running with a smile planted on her face. Inuyasha was following her with his own smile but still burning with determination to catch her

"Kagome, I'm gonna catch you." Inuyasha yelled as he pounced onto Kagome. She fell onto the grass with Inuyasha on top of her. She laughed that heart-filled laugh like she always does and played with his ears.

He then started laughing. "Now I have the upper hand." Kagome said laughing.

"Oh no you don't" Inuyasha said as he began tickling her gently with his claws. She laughed and tried to get his hands off of her to no avail.

He stopped still chuckling as she giggled. He rolled off of her then did something he'd never do…..he kissed her. Full on. She kissed him back. Inuyasha licked her bottom lip begging for entrance and she let him in. Their tongues battled for dominance but nobody won.

Inuyasha deepened the kiss by pulling her close to him, as he did so he began lifting up her shirt till he could feel her bare skin against his fingertips. She then took off her shirt as he did the same. He began kissing her neck. His breath hot against her neck she let out a small moan which made him very excited.

Inuyasha slipped off Kagome's bra and for a straight second gazed over the young yet developed breasts. He sucked on her left breasts while fondling the right with his hand. Kagome was moaning a bit louder now, she wanted him to take her but not before she could have some fun first.

She flipped him over so that she could be on top and slid her hand into his pants. With Kagome's other hand she unbuttoned his pants, pull them down along with his underwear, and grasped his manhood. He arched his back a little. He never knew Kagome would ever act like THIS so full of lust and passion. With his manhood in her hands she created friction by going up and down with her hand. He moaned loudly. 'What pleasure!' He thought.

Inuyasha couldn't take it anymore he flipped her over took off her pants and panties and slid into her. He was pulsing for her as she was pulsing for him. As soon as he slid into her Kagome felt immediate discomfort. Knowing that his best friend was a virgin he stopped before he went faster.

"Kagome," he breathed unsure of going any further.

Kagome closed her eyes and let a single tear slide down her cheek. "Keep going, Inuyasha, I want this. I want you." Kagome said in a breathless tone.

Inuyasha nodded, he slid out then slid back in. Slowly, cautiously, waiting for some change to happen he slid in and out of Kagome until she wrapped her legs around Inuyasha's waist and made him enter her a bit faster. They moaned then quicken the pace.

The continued like that for another half hour until they were both physically spent. He rolled to the side of her and she snuggled into his well toned chest. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her and breathed in her scent.

"I love you so much Inuyasha." Kagome said sincerely and full of emotion.

He pulled her in closer and said, "I love you to." They then fell asleep in each others arms on a grassy plain somewhere away from reality.

Inuyasha's eyes snapped open and sat up abruptly. The picture fell off of his body and onto the ground. He was sweating and a certain part of his body was pulsing and fully erect. He picked up the picture off the floor and looked at it. Kagome. He thought.

"What the fuck! I should be dreaming about my girlfriend not my fucking best friend!" Inuyasha exclaimed feeling confused and sexually charged. He then got up and looked at the time scratching his head profusely. 'Time to get up.' He thought, walking over to the bathroom to not only get ready but to only get rid of a certain pulsing muscle.

Kagome picked up yet another outfit out of her closet. "Sango I can't do this. I know you all want me to get out of this damn dorm room and have fun but you all will be in pairs and I won't."

"Inuyasha won't." Sango said nicely and comfortingly.

"He's still involved with Kikyo dumass. And also, as if. Were friends not boyfriend and girlfriend." Kagome said picking up an outfit that she bought with Koga, she chucked it into the garbage bin and continued her search.

"Why not it can be a friends date. Besides you two would make such a cute couple, you already act like one."

Kagome laughed. "We act like a couple of buddies which we are."

"Whatever, I gotta run see you at eight."

"Alright later." When Sango left she continued her search. Ten minutes later there was a knock on her door.

"Come in." Kagome said distractedly.

Inuyasha walked in and picked Kagome off the floor while closing the door behind him.

"Inuyasha what are you doing?" Kagome said completely dumbfounded.

Inuyasha turned her around in his arms, held her close to him, and kissed her deeply. For a second she didn't kiss back but reacted as soon as she didn't. He pulled away and stared deep into her chocolate brown eyes.

"What was that for." Kagome said breathless trying to regain her composure.

"I'm sorry." Inuyasha let her go and turned to walk away.

"Oh no you don't Takahashi, you don't just kiss your best friend like THAT then say 'I'm sorry' and walk try to walk away." Kagome said latching onto his arm and pulling him onto her bed. "Spill it. Why would you kiss me like that and then try to walk away."

"I don't know. I had a dream and my instincts, the youkai ones, told me to come to you and mark you."

"What type of dream?"

"A sex dream happy now."

"Do you have to be so damn blunt, can't you say something like a steamy passionate dream."

"I'm no girl."

"But I am."

"Your point."

"Do as a girl when it comes to that."

Inuyasha growled. "Would a girl kiss their best friend like I just did."

"If they were lesbians yes."

"Do you always have to have an answer."

"Yes, I do."

"I better go before I pounce on you and attempt marking you again."

"No don't leave I need your advice."

"What if I…"

"I'm a Miko remember. I can use my powers against you if I have to. Done it before to save you from yourself I can do the same."
"Nice to know you'll beat the shit out of me if I try to mark you. I feel so damn loved. Wait your going?"

"I don't want to but I promised Sango." Kagome said rummaging through her drawers.

"I thought you loved parties." Inuyasha said taking a look in her underwear drawer.

"I do its just….I'll feel out of place."

Inuyasha got off Kagome's bed and went to sit next to her. "Why, because you finally broke up with your no good ex boyfriend Koga. Face it Kag, he was not only cheating on you, he was cheating on you with five girls and wasn't there for you. Your better off without him and you don't need to be with anybody to enjoy yourself. Besides you still have me, we can always go together as friends."

"That's exactly what Sango said."

"What."

"That we should go together as friends." Kagome giggled. "She said we'd make a cute couple. Your with Kikyo so I'm like he wouldn't but that kiss has me thinking otherwise. Shouldn't your youkai instincts be telling you to mark Kikyo?"

"Maybe my youkai side chose you my dad told me about those things."

"And you listened, I'm so proud!" Kagome said in false happiness.

"I had to he was pulling on my ears." He rubbed his ears tentively remembering the incident.

"Awwww you poor thing." Kagome began rubbing his ears soothingly. He purred she loved it when he did that. Kagome giggled and stopped. Before she knew it she was pinned to the floor with Inuyasha on top of her.

"Inuyasha fight your heat you can do it I know you can."

Inuyasha's eyes were flashing red and she could tell he was trying hard and it appeared he was winning until he licked her neck. "Inuyasha," Kagome rubbed his ears to calm him down a bit, it didn't work he just nuzzled her neck further.

"Inuyasha control yourself do you really think I wanna hurt you." Inuyasha began sliding his hands up her shirt, that's when she had to take action. She used just enough of her Miko energy to knock him off of her. He flew back and reverted back to his old self.

"Did I try to….

"Yeah, but its ok your in heat and have a hard time dealing with it. Been there done that, you don't have to feel guilty."

"Who the hell said I feel guilty? I sure as hell didn't your jumping conclusions."

"Why would you ask me with such a worried tone then?" Kagome said while getting off the floor.

Inuyasha growled deeply but let it go. "I don't get why I'm feeling this way…towards YOU of all frigin people."

Kagome crouched down next to him and kissed his nose. "I don't know either but I've been having urges to kiss you and stuff like that towards you as well if that's any consolation."

"You have?" Inuyasha said surprised.

"Its all I can do to jump on top of you and kiss you all over and let you take me. But I can't because you're not only a taken man, you're my best friend who does NOT feel that way for me."

"What if that's what my youkai side is trying to tell me, Kag? What if were suppose to be together or something. Oldest story in the books. Boy meets girl, boy and girl become best friends, boy and girl grow up, boy and girl somehow fall in love, boy and girl have sex, get married, and know it was meant to be."

"You think you know everything and yet your so blind to see your own relationship failing."

"Part of the story. That's why my youkai side chose you. It all makes sense…perfect fucking sense. Kagome when I kiss you what do you feel?''

"What?"

"Answer the fucking question, Kagome."

"Not until you say sorry for cursing at me."

Inuyasha growled and said a mild sorry under his breath.

"I felt as if it was right although I don't know why. I shouldn't feel that way you're suppose to be my best friend and a taken man. We're suppose to just be friends wasn't that what we agreed on when we first kissed? Or did you secretly plan that for your own selfish reasons? Spill it Takahashi." Kagome pulled up a chair and sat in front of her so called best friend. She looked his straight in the eye and waited patiently for his answer.

"Well?"

Inuyasha scratched behind his ears. "You're an odd one you know that. I'm in heat my youkai side is acting up. Why would I, Inuyasha Takashi second to lordship of the Western Lands, want to mate with MY best friend. It is certainly absurd."

"Don't pull that 'I'm better than you' shit on me Takashi. I've known you way too long and I for sure know that's not the way you feel, let alone act. So drop it before I drop you." Kagome said strongly never taking her eyes off the hanyou in front of her.

"Then what am I feeling right now, since you know me so well." Inuyasha said in a cocky tone turning his head away from Kagome's stare.

Kagome took Inuyasha's face in her hands and forced him to look at her. She closed her eyes then gazed into his amber ones. Her aura flashed around her gracefully; it was obvious to Inuyasha that she was going to use her powers to find out. Something he didn't want but had no choice of receiving.

Kagome opened her eyes and gazed into Inuyasha's amber ones. Her eye color had changed from chocolate brown to a shocking electric blue. It would put the most finest race car to shame.

She saw into his very soul and he could feel her presence around him. It was playing with his youkai side as well as his human side. She saw his desires he kept lock away, she saw his needs, his goals, his fears, she knew most of these already but the whole desires and needs thing were a bit new.

Kagome saw him as a full youkai tending to his hanyou children around the castle grounds. She immediately thought that Kikyo was the mother but she was wrong. She saw herself on the other side calling to all of them to come and eat. Kagome was shocked she didn't think she should go any further but she did.

The next desire she saw was of Inuyasha in his human form and Kikyo. 'That's strange' Kagome thought. 'Why would he dream of me with him in his full youkai form but dream about Kikyo in his human form? Why does Inuyasha have to be so damn complicated?!?'

She then looked through some of his needs. Old things she knew already but as she sorted through his thoughts she uncovered some startling information. She had found a past conversation between Inuyasha and Kikyo she had to pry in since he never told her about it.

Conversation

"Inuyasha, if we get married would you become a full human for me?" Kikyo asked sweetly while rubbing Inuyasha's leg.

"Do you want me to change?" Inuyasha asked somewhat peeved of the question. She should take him as he is.

"What would our children look like hun? Do you want them to suffer the same past you did? That's terrible! I wouldn't be able to imagine such a thing!" Kikyo said being over dramatic.

"Times have changed though." Inuyasha said while shrugging his shoulders.

Just then Kikyo's beeper went off, she quickly mumbled something of a 'I gotta go', kissed him on the cheek, and left.

End

Kagome stopped looking, she found the answer. She knew how she felt about Inuyasha. It was pretty damn clear to her. She just always used Kikyo as an excuse for some reason she didn't even know. She closed her eyes until they reverted back to her normal chocolate brown eye color and allowed her aura to dissipate. She inched away from Inuyasha but he pulled her back down and said, "Well, miss Miko."

"Your youkai and human side chose me because I love you for you. The reason why your youkai side is calling for you to mate me is because Kikyo would rather have you as a human, since she's more concerned over the way your children would look like and shit, where as, I don't care." Kagome said while getting up, tucking a piece of hair behind her ear, and rummaging through her closet again.

"You sneaky bitch. Going into my mind like I'm your lacky or somethin'. You had to look at all that." Inuyasha said in a nearing pissed off tone.

"I had to find out what was wrong with you. Why? Are you mad at me for prying? Sorry, what ever happened to our pact? You promised no secrets and yet you're keeping some."

"Like you aren't."

"I have told you everything, Inuyasha."

"Feh."

"Don't 'feh' me. I have told you everything Inuyasha!" Kagome said looking straight into his eyes showing many emotions in her own.

"Kagome," He didn't know why she was getting so riled up. "what's wrong?"

"Inuyasha, you just don't realize…that after you kissed me…..it brought back all of these feelings again." Kagome said holding back tears.

"So you have been keeping secrets from me." Inuyasha said with a smile. He stroked her face lovingly with a clawed finger.

"I had to keep that away from you….I was afraid you would…."

"Afraid of what?"

"Forget it, I need to find an outfit and you're gonna help me." Kagome said while getting up. Inuyasha pulled her down. "The outfit can wait." He said sternly.

"Inuyasha I was afraid that you'd leave me because I felt for you." Inuyasha's ears went stood alert when she said that.

"Why the hell would I leave you just because you have feelings for me. That makes no sense."

"You're with Kikyo, she has a way of getting rid of people."

"Kag, you are my best friend why would I let Kikyo get rid of you."

Kagome turned her head away from his piercing gaze. "Because you love her and you'd don anything for her."

"Well, I wouldn't allow her to coax me to get rid of you Kagome. I can't do such a thing. I love your crazy ass too much. So what did you feel after we kissed?"

"I was sixteen and stupid so don't ask."

"Tell me, No Secret till the day we die rule." Inuyasha said pulling her on top of him while he lay back on the bed.

"You know this is the type of thing that gets Miroku going with his hentai foolishness."

"Miroku is busy BEING a hentai with Sango for the moment so don't think he'll be bursting in any time soon."

"Just in case, I will lock the door." Kagome turned her gaze towards the door and mumbled a spell. The lock switched from un-locked to lock.

Inuyasha tightened his grip around Kagome's arms so she couldn't slide to the side of him. He like her where she was at. Her hair hung loosely around her face, her shirt was loose so he could just take an innocent peek, and her legs were straddling his waist. Yup, he was going to have fun torturing her. Good thing he had some sense of control over his youkai side or else he'd be marking her now.

Kagome stared at him for a second then turned away. "Inuyasha I really need to find an outfit for tonight. Its like I have no clothes at all."

"That can wait, we're leaving at eleven and from the clock that's never wrong it clearly says we have four hours of talking we can do." Inuyasha said in a quiet voice.

"Not in this position." Kagome said suddenly feeling uncomfortable.

"What did you feel, Kagome. Did you feel love? Or did you feel lust? Or was it both?" Inuyasha said in a husky voice sending chills up Kagome's spine.

"Inuyasha stop." Kagome wanted that to come out as a strong statement but instead, it came out as a hushed whisper.

"Mmm from the way you are acting I am guessing it was both. Am I right?"

"Why are you doing this?"

"Cuz I love you and want to be with you."

"What about Kikyo."

"She's gone for all I care. So tell me was I right."

"You are freaking me out, you know that right."

"Right now I feel like time has stopped and all that matters is you."

"Since when are you so open to what you feel. I usually have to beat this type of shit out of you. What's gotten into you, is it the heat?" Kagome said surprised trying to move her legs off of his waist only to earn a low growl from him.

"It's partly heat that's making me do this but what I'm saying is the truth. I really do love you… more then a friend. So the question is, do you feel the same?"

Kagome was happy and slightly confused. 'What if this changes everything? What if we break-up and become bitter enemies?' Kagome chocked down all of her worries and looked into Inuyasha's eyes.

Inuyasha was dieing under this wait she was giving him. He was spilling his heart out, thanks to his heat, and she was just staring into his eyes as if she was searching his soul.

"Inuyasha," Kagome said in a hush tone. "I love you too." Inuyasha stared at her wide eyed and kissed her with passion. She kissed him back then put her arms around his neck. He held her close to his body never losing his grip. He nipped her bottom lip, she gasped, and he entered her mouth with a smirk on his face.

Soon they pulled away and just stared at each other. Kagome sat on his lap like a little girl. She played with his ears and laughed each time he purred. Inuyasha soon got tired of being used as a dog and turned her over and tickled her. When he stopped they were both laughing until a startling knock erupted at her door.

Kagome got off the floor and straightened out her clothes before asking, "Who is it?"

"Kagome, its Koga. Can we talk?"

Inuyasha growled at the sound of Koga's voice. "If you have that worthless mutt in there you can't be TOO busy."

"He isn't worthless. What are you doing at MY College? Aren't you in a different university in America with Kikyo?"

"Yeah I am. Can you just open the door I really wanna talk to you."

"I have nothing to say to you. Now go before I call security."

Koga growled then kicked down the door. "I really need to talk to you."

"She said she didn't want to talk to you so beat it!" Inuyasha said kicking Koga in the stomach.

"Well, I really need to speak to her mutt so get out of my way." Koga punched Inuyasha. And the fight would have begun if Kagome hadn't stepped in the middle, like old times, and stopped it.

"Stop it! Koga get the fuck out of my dorm room before I do something that will send you flying!"

"I'll be back, Kagome." At that he turned away and left.

Kagome turned to Inuyasha and hugged him. He held her close to his heart. He stroked her back in a way of comfort, he could tell she was afraid of him. But he would always be there for her no matter what.

They looked at the clock and saw it was already nine so Inuyasha and Kagome went into her closet to find her something to wear.

"When did you get this?" Inuyasha said with a sly grin on his face. He had picked up some Victoria Secret launderette.

"Eeeee!" Kagome grabbed it out of Inuyasha's hands and hit him gently. "What are you doing in my under wear drawer. You are supposed to be helping me find an outfit."

"But it's what you wear under the smashing outfit that counts." Inuyasha winked and she hit him playfully.

"No it isn't."

"Yes it is."

"No it isn't now help me find an outfit."

"Fine." He picked up a mini jean skirt. "What about this?"

"That'll work but with what shirt?" Kagome said while stroking her chin in a thoughtful way.

"What about….this one." Inuyasha pulled out a black bra and a red mesh top.

"How did I know you would pick that one?"

"Cuz you were secretly hoping I would pick it." Inuyasha said while planting a kiss on her full lips.

Kagome pulled away. "But what if I was reaching towards…" Inuyasha silenced her with a deeper kiss.

Inuyasha pulled away and kissed her neck, pulling her closer to him. Kagome loved the feeling she was getting out of this but they couldn't do this it was too soon. She snapped out of her reverie in a refusing matter and pushed Inuyasha away. "We can't." Was all she could muster out before getting up.

"Why can't we?"

"I'm not ready, sorry." Kagome looked down remembering what Koga said. He had been cheating on her because she wouldn't give it up.

"That's ok, I can wait." Inuyasha said, standing up and stretching. "I better go get ready."

"Yup. See you in a few."

"I won't see you cuz you'll be in the shower and I will just be sitting here watching t.v waiting for you to come out." Inuyasha said with a slight smile.

She giggled. "Whatever." He then walked out of Kagome's dorm and down the hall to his own. He opened it cautiously hoping to God that Miroku and Sango weren't fucking on the couch again. To his delight they weren't. He went to his room took out a deep red dress shirt, dressy black pants, and his black shoes, and into the shower he went.

When he was out and ready to go back to Kagome's place he could hear Miroku walking out of his room, singing his favorite get up before he goes to the club.

"I'm to sexy for my…" Miroku began but couldn't finish after being hit on the head by Inuyasha.

"Shut up you ass."

"Takes one to know one my friend."

"Feh, lets go."
