Best of Friends

Chapter Seven

Not Ready

Inuyasha and Kagome walked side by side taking the park route to her dormitory. They walked in comfortable silence while holding each others hand. Kagome was trying to get what Koga said out of her mind. "Seems like I attract psychos or something." She thought to herself while Inuyasha tightened his grip on Kagome.

Inuyasha stopped walking causing Kagome to fall out of her stupor to see that she and Inuyasha had finally reached their destination. She took out her keys and invited him in without thinking of the new base of friendship they had uncovered. Inuyasha was a very experienced boy. You could say that he has had his fair share of women before Kikyo. As they walked to her dorm room you could hear Kagome's phone ringing from down the hall. She ran to her door and rushed to open the door. Before the answering machine went off she picked up the phone regretting that she didn't screen it.

"Kagome, its about time I got a hold of you. Seems like you never pick up that phone of yours." Lyn said.

Kagome inwardly sighed then said, "I've been busy with school mom. You know finals are coming up and I had a few papers to write so I haven't been having much fun lately. How have you been?" Inuyasha looked at her then rolled his eyes while getting comfortable on her couch.

"I've been great, sweetie. Now, I know we've had some rough times but would it kill you to come see your mother. We can go shopping and bond like we used to."

"I'll have to look upon my schedule for when I have a long weekend or something. How is your husband Steven?"

"Oh, he's great he misses you too sweetie. Says it's a little dead without you here but we cope what else can we do. Have you spoken to your father lately?"

"Yeah. He might come down here he says. Just for me." She giggled a little to herself as she watched Inuyasha balance a chip on his nose then get frustrated that it wouldn't stand.

"I see. So, how is the gang doing. Send them my love will you honey. I have to get going now I love you."

"Love you too bye."

"Bye." With that Kagome hung up the phone and plopped on her bed. "First Koga pays me a visit and now dear old mom calls can the day get any worse?"

"Awww, come on Kagome. That conversation was one of the best you two have had in awhile. How can the day be bad when you've spent most of it with me?" He smirked inwardly while inching his way slowly over to her form. "Damn she looks sexy tonight!"

"Whatever puppy. Why don't we just-

Kagome was unable to finish her thought because right then Inuyasha pounced on her and began tickling her causing her to laugh. She did the only thing she ever could do at a time like this. Grab the ears and tickle them.

After a good fifteen minutes of tickling and laughing they calmed down laid down next to one another on the bed. Inuyasha turned on his side and put his arm around her waist lazily and began kissing and nipping at her exposed neck making Kagome just a little flustered. He put his hand into her shirt grazing his claws against the exposed skin slowly inching his way towards her breasts. Inuyasha flipped on top of her making a veil on one side of their faces with his long, silvery, white hair and kissed her passionately causing her to moan into his mouth.

Inuyasha took Kagome's shirt off and began making his way towards her breasts but before his mouth reached the top Kagome pushed Inuyasha away and ran into the bathroom. She locked the door and put on her robe. "I'm just not ready. Even if I trust Inuyasha I just can't take that step." When Inuyasha snapped out of his state of shock he knocked on the door and in a comforting voice he said, "Kags, its ok I understand your not ready I can wait." Kagome opened the door and hugged him.

"Thank you, Inu. I trust you its just that….."

"Your not ready I know, I'll wait. I'm not a scumbag like Koga. I'll stay and wait even if I have to wait till I'm forty."

Kagome laughed then smiled at Inuyasha. "Its time for you to go home now puppy."

"How many times do I have to tell you that Im not a puppy but a grown man."

Kagome laughed then kissed him. "See you tomorrow puppy!" She closed the door quickly and laughed at his remarks.
