OMG I got so many reviews that I fell out of my chair (literally) I love you all so much! I'd shower you with coins and candy, but sadly I don't know where any of you live, and I won't ask because that would be stalkerish (clears throat) But anyways, thank you all from the bottom of somewhere!
waterrange1444- thanks for that, always need a good reader.
katara11- thank you, and I bet it's good to be the daughter. I'm so jealous (wink)
euphoricabandon- you're right, I cannot resist the puppy eyes or the quivering lip, and the lemon is coming in ch6, because it would have made this one too long. Oh, and I completely agree that she's a bitch!
doughnut92- yeah, he is hot. Very. Like drooling, but him, sesshy, and inu all rank high on that scale.
Ookami Hime Suriya- ok, basically the deal with the "clay pot" is that she still needs inuyasha, and she's extremely jealous that kagome is with him, and not her. Sorry if I disappointed you, but yea, we all hate her.
Chapter 5: Why?
"Miroku, don't you think we should go get Inuyasha yet? It's been two days now, and he hasn't eaten," Sango said to Miroku. They were currently taking refuge with Kaede.
Miroku sighed loudly. "I don't know Sango. I don't know how long this is going to last, and feeding him will only make him stronger, thereby making the urges stronger."
"But without food, won't he just crave more?"
Miroku sat pondering this, then said with a big smile, "I guess he'll just have to live with it then. We need to watch out for Kagome and what he'll do to her if she-" he was cut off suddenly when Kagome walked through the door. Her shirt was torn, as was her skirt, and her hair was a mess. She was dirty, and, by what Miroku could see to his delight, she had no bra on.
Sango held a stunned look on her face. "Kagome what happened?"
The air around Kagome was tense, and she furiously stormed over to sit with them around the table. Seething, she snapped, "stupid Inuyasha. I hope he falls down a deep nasty whole, rots for days, then gets eaten bit by itty-bitty bits by little worms that have some deadly disease so that he gets that too!" She sighed heavily, then stared down at her lap.
Reaching out, Sango rested her hand on Kagome's shoulder, only to have her shrug it off. Sango turned to Miroku to ask for help, but stopped short when she saw him staring intently at Kagome's chest, a certain fire in his eyes. Without missing a beat, or a scowl, Sango picked her bowl up and threw it at the monk.
"Ouch—ed you end up looking like that Kagome?" said Miroku, rubbing his head gently, inwardly whimpering at the sting.
Kagome continued to stare at her lap. Looking closely, Sango could see her face turning deep red. "Oooh, um, Miroku? Could you go out and, um, see where Lady Kaede is?"
"Why Sango? There is no reason to fetch her, we're certainly alright on our own."
Sango sent him a fierce scowl, and mouthed to him "we need to be alone."
Sighing loudly, Miroku stood up to stretch, then headed out. Before he walked by Kagome, he stole a look on his face and grinned wickedly at what he saw. Then noting the deadly look on Sango's face, cleared his throat and left.
"Now, Kagome, tell me what happened."
"What the hell happened to her," Inuyasha whispered to himself as he sped through the woods, heading towards the well. She wouldn't have left… would she?
He wanted to see her. Soon. No, sooner then soon, because he was losing control again and he wanted to, no needed to talk to her.
Or if he had his way, there would be no talking.
Reaching the edge of the clearing where the God Tree was, he drew up short to see the last person he wanted to now.
The silver hair blew gently in the breeze. His back turned, he still held an air around his tall form that showed great power and pride.
Sesshomaru (a/n: sigh oh he's so delicious)Turning quietly, Inuyasha began to creep away slowly. He had one foot raised when he heard that arrogant, low voice.
"Even as a half demon, you still posses no skills to hide yourself."
Leaping from the shadows, Inuyasha yelled back, "Yeah! Well, being the great dog demon you are, you sure don't act the part."
"Please, Inuyasha, I will not indulge in your petty, childish name games." Still Sesshomaru had not turned around.
"Damn you! What do you know!"
"A lot more than you. Like what you're going through right now. Tell me, have you chosen a mate yet, or will no one come close enough to you're disgusting person."
Drawing his Tetsusaiga, Inuyasha lunged forward. "I'll show you what this disgusting person can do!" Drawing his sword up, he then brought it down over Sesshomaru's head, only to meet steel. Pulling back, he saw that Sesshomaru had drawn his Tensaiga.
"Inuyasha, I have no time for this. Be gone, and I pray that no girl must suffer your urges."
Inuyasha inwardly cringed as he thought of Kagome. "Well, I don't see you walking around with a mate!"
Sesshomaru let out a sinister laugh, "You are but a half demon, and your human side makes your… lust stronger. It's like when a male human goes through puberty, he wants whatever he can find. Being the full demon I am, I can control them."
Sesshomaru turned to leave, and said over his shoulder, "Besides, no woman is worth my time."
Seething, Inuyasha yelled back, "Oh yeah! Well, I almost had one! Even two!" It was of no use, though, for Sesshomaru had already disappeared.
What does he know, Inuyasha said to himself. He stood to stare at the God Tree. It was ironic how he had been trapped before, then let off by Kagome. Then later, he had been tied to it again, and again Kagome had been the reason for him being let go.
Shaking his head, he sped for the well.
I wonder what she's doing...
"Oh, Kagome that's just wrong. What a jerk! All men are jerks!"
Kagome barely listened to Sango's ranting. She was too consumed in her thoughts about the half demon who once again upset her. By now she should have been used to it, but every time he was with Kikyo, it hurt.
Was it so wrong to like him? No, to love him? She'd do anything for him…
Hearing a curse from Sango and a noise behind her, Kagome turned to see Inuyasha standing in the doorway. His eyes were hazy red again, and he was breathing rapidly. The look he gave her set her body on fire, and her stomach clenched.
He's here! He came for me, and he's not with…"Inuyasha! SIT!" Her anger was coming back at the thought of the clay remake. Stupid Inuyasha. He probably just finished with her, then came back to me…
"Sit, sit, sit, sit, sit, sit," on and on she went, until Sango covered her mouth.
"Kagome," she said, "don't do that."
"Yeah Kagome," Inuyasha bit out, though it was muffled by the floor.
"Yes Kagome," continued Sango. "We don't want to put a hole in Kaede's floor."
Inuyasha growled loudly. "Well you're a load of help Sango. Look, all I came for was to talk to Kagome!"
"Well from what I've heard, there was no talking."
"Sango, just shut up! I need to talk to her, and I need to now!"
"Hellooo! I'm right here you know, so quit talking like I'm not," said Kagome.
Picking himself off the floor, Inuyasha stared at Kagome. "Come on Kagome, we have some things to discuss."
Kagome stood and walked across the room to stand toe-to-toe with him. "Look, Inuyasha, contrary to what you believe, you don't own me."
Inuyasha let out an irritated sigh. "I know that. Jeez, I knew that the first time I met you, but I really need to talk to you this time."
Kagome glared at him, then raised herself up on her toes. "Fine, Inuyasha, but don't expect anything from me!" With that, she walked out the door, only to be followed by Inuyasha.
Kagome gasped when Inuyasha picked her up. "What are you doing! Put me down!"
"You know, last time I put you down, look what happened." Her blush only helped his statement. "Now shut up, I'm taking us to somewhere where we can talk in private." He nodded his head towards the hut, where Sango was standing at the door, and Miroku and Kaede were standing behind it.
Inuyasha carried her to the God Tree, then set her down on the grass in front of it. Looking up at him, she saw that he looked very uncomfortable. "Look, Kagome-"
"Why?"
Inuyasha frowned down at her, confused at her question. "Why what?"
"Why are you doing this? Why me?"
"Oh jeez Kagome." Inuyasha let out an exasperated breath and sat down next to her. Looking over at her, he saw confusion and curiosity set in her big brown eyes. To many times he had seen them angry, happy, scared, and worse, filled with tears. "I don't know what to fucking say!"
"It's not that hard. Here, just tell me why you're acting this way?"
Inuyasha turned away, took a breath, and then abruptly turned back to her. "Why do girls have to ask such stupid questions? What is with you people? Why can't you figure it out? It's not that damn hard Kagome. Why do guys fuck with girls? Why, you ask. You tell me Kagome, you tell me."
Kagome drew back at this sudden outburst. "I don't know Inuyasha. It's usually when a guy, well, um… when he likes her." The last came out as a whisper.
"Good job Kagome," he said sarcastically.
"Well," she shouted back, now angry again. How dare he confuse her like this? Make her feel like this? "Well, Mr. I'm-All-Knowing, I didn't think you liked me like that!"
Inuyasha gripped her chin and roughly pulled her into a kiss, his mouth bearing down hard on hers. Parting her lips, his tongue danced with hers until she moaned. Pulling back, Inuyasha gruffly said, "Look Kagome, I don't make it a habit of kissing girls I don't like. You're something to me, ok?"
Tears began to gather in her eyes. "Well, you certainly must like Kikyo then." She inwardly cursed herself at the anger she saw on his face. What had possessed her to do that?
"Damn it Kagome! Damn it! I don't like her ok! Better? She fucking forced herself on me, and I didn't like any of it at all." He began to stand, only to be dragged back by Kagome. "What?"
Smiling at him, she reached up and rubbed his ears. He groaned, and leaned into her caresses. "Inuyasha, why are you doing this?"
"Honestly?"
She nodded.
"The Coming of Age. It's a stage demons go through, and we have urges to, um… you know."
Kagome nodded. "So I'm supposed to be a stop along this stage?"
"No," Inuyasha rubbed his forehead. "This is the time when demons usually-"
"What Inuyasha?"
Instead of answering, he pulled her over and across his lap. "Kagome, I want you. Just know that." And with that said, he kissed her.
