Slavery

Chapter 4: In the barn

Last Time

"Who was that?" he asked when they got into Inuyasha's barn.

"Oh, him? That's my friend Hojo," Kagome said. "Why?"

"Uh… well, he just seemed… weird," Inuyasha said. Kagome smiled. 'Oh, he's jealous…' She smirked to herself.

This Time

"Whatever," Inuyasha said. Then he remembered what had just happened. "Gods Kagome! Why did you go get yourself into that?"

"Sorry! It's not my fault!" Kagome said exaggerating 'sorry'.

Inuyasha sighed. "You could've got seriously hurt or killed!" he snorted.

"Why would you care?" she snapped.

"Well…uh…" he tried to think of an excuse. "You said it yourself! We're friends," he smirked.

Kagome smiled. "Thank you for saving me," she looked away.

Inuyasha smiled. "No problem, now don't ever do that again." he said playfully.

Kagome rolled her eyes and continued to smile. Inuyasha laughed. 'He's so cute, and handsome, and… whoa! Stop thinking like that Kagome!' she thought.

Inuyasha's laughter died down. He looked at Kagome. She was blushing. 'Wow, she's beautiful… Huh? Did I just think that? About my master's daughter? I could seriously get into trouble,' he thought. He looked away, trying not to blush. Kagome saw this. It just made her blush even more. Silence.

"Um…" Inuyasha started, breaking the silence.

"Um…" Kagome copied him. They both suddenly found their feet very interesting.

"Uh…Kagome?" Inuyasha started again, looking at Kagome. 'I have to tell her…' he thought.

"Yes?"

"Well… when that guy acted like he was going to hurt you…" 'I got scared'

"What about it?" she asked. She was now looking deep into those golden orbs of his. She felt like she was going to melt.

"Ikindagotscared" Inuyasha said so fast and in one breath. It took Kagome a few seconds to get it while Inuyasha stared at the ground.

"R…really?" she finally asked. He nodded. 'I'm seriously dead…' he thought sadly, thinking about how Kagome probably hated him now.

"Thanks for caring, Inuyasha," she smiled very brightly up at him. He looked at her. She looked… happy? But why? Did she…?

"Y…you mean, you're not mad?" Inuyasha asked.

"Of course not!" She replied. "Why would I be?" She was still smiling at him. There was something special in her eyes. Inuyasha couldn't figure out what it was.

"Well, I don't know…" he smiled. It was quiet. Kagome suddenly threw her arms around Inuyasha's middle and hugged him. She buried her face in his red haori. Inuyasha was shocked, but hugged her back.

'Why is she doing this?' he thought while his heart was racing. Kagome tilted her head so that she could see Inuyasha. He looked down at her. She leaned in, closer to him. He leaned down and their lips met. They closed their eyes.

After a minute or so, they broke apart and Inuyasha hugged her. He didn't know what to say. Kagome just listened to his rapid heart beat and smiled.

'My first kiss!' She thought happily. She sighed and Inuyasha took that as a good sign. They stood there for a while, completely unaware that a figure watched from the window.

Anger boiled up inside him. 'How could she kiss him! He's a slave! I will make her pay. This is not supposed to happen!' his thoughts ran around in his head, trying to figure out a solution. 'I will see to it that she will never be happy again!' With that, the figure turned and left, going completely unnoticed.
