Chapter 4: Home

InuYasha snatched the clothes and odd items from Kaede, stuffing them angrily into his shirt. "'Bout time baabaa!" He snarled at the old woman, crossing his arms.

"Patience is a virtue, InuYasha." Kaede said simply, and InuYasha snorted.

"Do I look like a holy man to you?" He snapped at her and growled. Kaede simply rolled her eyes and strolled back into the hut.

"Ye have not changed, even after so long." She said as she sat down inside the hut, knowing InuYasha would hear her. He merely snarled and went bounding back to the well, hoping that they hadn't left him behind...if they had he'd kill them! He wanted to see the future too! More than Sesshoumaru did at least!

(WARNING LEMON AHEAD)

(where the lemon is on :P)

He wrapped his tail possessively around her and watched her as he had before. Gods, she was good. He was glad he hadn't put his mark on her, or she would be miserable. He was a demon, not a human. She would never truly be his, but in his own way, he could have her.

InuYasha, then, bound into the clearing. "What the fuck happened! I heared you roar from the village!" He said, and Sesshoumaru shook his head.

"A demon tried to take her." Sesshoumaru said. It wasn't a lie, since he was a demon and he did try, and succeed, in taking her. InuYasha sniffed for any signs of a lie and shrugged when he found none. He stepped forward and shook Kagome roughly, causing Sesshoumaru to growl. Kagome mumbled something and snuggled closer to Sesshoumaru's leg.

InuYasha looked at Sesshoumaru, confuzed by the growl, but shook Kagome again.

"Hey, bitch! Wake up!" He snapped, and Kagome awoke, slapping him hard and yelling something neither could understand. She yawned and stretched. She looked up at the two demons who were looking at her in shock.

"What?" She asked, confuzed, and InuYasha growled, pointing to his cheek. A bright red hand print lay there. "Oh...Sorry...I had this...dream. I was being...attacked while...taking a bath! And, so, I slapped the person!" She said, trying to play off her lie. Oh, what a dream! She looked up at Sesshoumaru and blushed a bright red, remembering his role in her dream. First it had been InuYasha, but he turned into a more...playful...Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru stroked her hair and stood. Kagome stood, and she looked down into the well, noticing her thighs were sore. She probebly kicked in her sleep and pulled her muscles or something.

"Ok...um...you two hold my hands, we could get lost or...something. I don't know. I don't want to take any chances. InuYasha, did you get my clothes?" Kagome asked, and InuYasha nodded, tossing her clothes at her. Kagome gasped when her bra fell to the ground. Sesshoumaru picked it up and looked at it, then smirked, coming to an understanding to what it was.

Kagome blushed furiously and snatched it from him. "I'll only be a second...to change..." Kagome said and ran into the woods, making sure she was hidden behind several trees and a bush. She changed quickly, not wanting the males to see her at all, or anyone else. She ran back and handed the bundle of miko garbs to Sesshoumaru, who was the closest one to her. He put it in his shirt, not wanting to let InuYasha have it due to it may have had a faint smell of their...He didn't go any further, he didn't want to be aroused by the thought, not while InuYasha was around anyway.

Kagome, Sesshoumaru, and InuYasha held hands, and all at once jumped into the well.

Souta watched down the well, as he did everyday since Kagome's dissappearence. What had happened? Where was she? He sighed and turned, climbing the stairs. He faced his fears of the well house because he wanted his sister back. He missed her. He missed her stupid moodswings, and her yelling. He missed her smile, and her laughter. Tears formed in his eyes until he heard a loud thud.

"Ow..." Kagome's voice echoed up the well. Souta ran back down and looked into the well to see something hillarious. Kagome was lying on her back, ontop of two white...pillows? He didn't care! He ran inside to get his mother.

Kagome whimpered as she sat up, rolling off of the two males. They both held their noses. What was that smell? Ningen! Ningen NOT Kagome! Sesshoumaru snarled and pulled Kagome back down, his face resting on her stomach and InuYasha's face in her hair. She was so pleasent smelling! But, by kami, everything else wasn't! Kagome blushed at the contact and wondered what was going on.

"Ano...Nanda?" Kagome asked the two dog demons, who looked up at her, though they didn't let their faces wonder too far from her body.

"This Sesshoumaru's nose is ten times as sensitive as an ordinary dog's nose, miko. InuYasha's is as about as sensitive. Your world has a distinct smell of humans and...other smells." He said and Kagome realized that he looked at her with the same eyes as in her dream. She blushed profusely and her arousal was very evident.

InuYasha smelled the sweet scent of her arousal and murred. Both dog demons now had painful arousals and InuYasha growled loudly.

"Damn it bitch! Keep that damned mind of yours outta the gutter!" He snapped, hands on his crotch as if to keep his stiff member down. Kagome blushed more and huddled closer to Sesshoumaru in emberassment. Sesshoumaru's erection was painful, but he had lost control with her already once and he would not again. He stood, holding her close, stroking her hair as InuYasha yelped at the stench of the world and stood, lying his head on Kagome's arm.

It was a while before a ladder was thrown down the well. "Hey! Kagome!" Souta shouted down the well, then blinked at the two males with Kagome...well he thought they were male... He looked at the tall one and looked for any signs of breasts. Yup. Male. Why was he wearing make up though!

"Kagome! Come out of there! Who are these two?" Mrs Higurashi asked as Kagome climbed the ladder, Sesshoumaru and InuYasha both jumping out. Both dog demons immediatly stood close to Kagome as she exited the well.

"Mom...mama!" Kagome cried, throwing herself into her mother's arms. Sesshoumaru reached out and pulled Kagome back, letting her cry onto his chest. "I-I'm home! I was so scared I wouldn't make it back!" Kagome wailed, InuYasha looked at her sadly, before going over to her and rubbing her back.

"Come, Kagome, let us go to your hut." Sesshoumaru said, and Kagome laughed lightly.

"House, not hut. People in this time don't live in huts, but houses with several rooms." Kagome explained and her brother and mother looked at the two men strangely.

"We'll explain once Kagome calms down. Kami, this world reeks!" InuYasha hissed out, covering his nose with his infamous red fire-rat robe. Sesshoumaru merely nuzzled Kagome, so her scent would be directly on his face. The Higurashi family walked slowly to the house. Souta wondered about the two men, but didn't say anything.

Once inside, both males were relieved to find it smelled of Kagome and her family. It was a pleasant smell, reminding them of the different seasons. Kagome's sent was like that of Spring, her mother was Summer, her brother was Winter, and there was fall...somewhere. Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome, who was cuddled under his arm.

"Who is the other ningen that lives here?" He asked her and Kagome blinked. Shit!

"Grandpa! He's going to try to purify you both with sutras and powder!" She squeaked and InuYasha growled.

"Like hell! He ain't gonna do shit!" InuYasha snapped and Kagome hit him on the back of his head.

"No cursing around my family! SIT! And Sesshoumaru! Do you have to call us ningens all the time? Can't you just say person?" She asked looking up at him with those big blue eyes of hers. Sesshoumaru sighed, looking off to the side.

"It is this Sesshoumaru's way." He said and Kagome frowned.

"ANYWAY! Mom, bro, this is Sesshoumaru and his half brother InuYasha. Their dog demons! Well, Sesshoumaru is, InuYasha is half human." Kagome said and her grandfather seemed to appear out of no where.

"I'll protect you, Kagome! Demon be GONE!" He yelled and slapped sutras on each dog demon's forehead. Of course they didn't work a bit.

Sesshoumaru and InuYasha growled. Kagome paniced.

"SIT! DOWN!" Thud. Thunk. Both were on the ground growling. "Ano...Jii-chan? They are my friends." She said, pulling her grandpa away and helping the two men up. Sesshoumaru sighed as his tail acted of its own accord and draped itself over Kagome's shoulders. InuYasha snarled at the old man and stood just at Kagome's right side. "Come on, you two, lets get you into the bathroom so you two can get clean. Souta? Take them to the bathroom, and keep Buyo out of there!" She commanded and Souta nodded, taking both demons by the hand, rambling about this and that as he pulled them away from Kagome and up the stairs.

It took several hours of fighting with the dog demons about showering, and staying away from Kagome while naked, to get them cleaned up. Sesshoumaru at least put his pants on before entering Kagome's room, InuYasha however didn't really care. Kagome had thrown just about anything and everything at the naked male, Sesshoumaru lounging on her bed watching with humor gleaming in his eyes. Souta had to drag an unconsious InuYasha back to the shower and clean him up all over again, then get him dressed.

Kagome eventually told her family everything over dinner. Sesshoumaru had just sat by her side, eating a little bit here and there, but not really eating much. He told her he didn't eat human foods, although he complimented her mother on the meal. He said it was good, but he preferred raw meat. InuYasha, however, made a pig out of himself and had even tried stealing Kagome's food right off her plate. He was sat several times for that.

Kagome's mother allowed the two males to sleep in Kagome's room, and Souta did so as well, seeing InuYasha as a new-found idol for some reason. Kagome slept on the bed with Sesshoumaru, who had crawled in the bed late at night to watch her sleep, while InuYasha and Souta lay on the ground. Souta copied InuYasha's every movement, crossing his arms and sitting down while he slept just as InuYasha did.

(where the lemon is on :P)

The next morning Kagome slowly opened her eyes. Something wasn't right. She saw InuYasha and Souta on the floor, Souta teaching InuYasha about hand held games. She smiled at that. InuYasha did seem like an over grown kid anyway. She blinked, feeling a slight pressure on her stomach. She looked down to see a hand, no doubt Sesshoumaru's, on her stomache. She looked behind her and met golden eyes, darkened with an emotion Kagome only saw in her dreams. She blinked and it was gone, the caring look they had in them still held, yet the lust had seemingly dissappeared.

Sesshoumaru had to quickly hide the lust from Kagome, he didn't want her to think bad of him for taking her not once, but twice yesterday. He knew that she thought it was a dream, yet if she found out...she'd hate him. He couldn't have that. Wouldn't. Ever.

He pulled her tightly against him as she turned back to watch InuYasha and Souta. Sesshoumaru rested his chin on her head and massaged her belly with his hand, careful not to cut her with his sharp claws. He smiled lightly remembering the way she had dug her dull human fingers into his back and shoulders, and was happy he healed so fast. If he hadn't, then she would know...He could never let her find out.

Kagome's mother walked into the room, smiling kindly at the new additions to her family. "Kagome, if you intend to go back, then we must go shopping! You don't want to go back without food do you? We can give you some ramen! And maybe some other snacks, oh! And we must send you with your homework assignments for the next few days. How long are you staying dear?"

Sesshoumaru raised an eyebrow at how...easily his wo-he paused. His woman? No. InuYasha's. He scowled but continued with his thoughts. How could Kagome's mother be so accepting of her daughter's ability to go through time? He shrugged. What was ramen? And homework? Shopping?

Kagome was carrying on a conversation with her mom, still lying in bed with the handsome demon. She lay a hand on Sesshoumaru's own and gently squeezed his hand comfortingly. She felt there was confusion coming from him, and InuYasha, but Souta was already explaining things to both demons. Amazingly, her brother explained things well and was able to tell them why they had to be in hiding. Sesshoumaru wrinkled his nose.

"Our world will be over run by ningen?" He muttered and sighed. Kagome glared at him and he merely nuzzled her neck.

"Nanda?" Sesshoumaru asked and Kagome shoved his hands off her, standing.

"Whats so wrong about ningen anyway!" Kagome snapped and Sesshoumaru raised a hand, gently touching her cheek.

"Nothing, if it is you, Kagome. Other than you and your family, ningen generally agrivate this Sesshoumaru's nose. This world smells of ningen, smoke, sex, and lust." Sesshoumaru said and Kagome looked at him with soft eyes, raising her hand to cover his.

"I forget that you have that super sense thing going on." She said and pulled him out of bed. "Ok, everyone out, I need to change. Souta, find them both some clothes in dad's old stuff, or jii-chan's."

Souta nodded and again Sesshoumaru and InuYasha found themselves being led away.

Kagome smiled as she changed, her thighs STILL sore, she giggled. "Home...You never know how important it is to you until you're on your own." She said and pulled on some clothes.
