A/N: Ok people, I really thought this would get more reviews than that. And considering my unloyal sister hasn't review this one yet I'm gonna kick her ass! Ok so I won't, I'll kick her shin... like I always do. Anyway, as a fare warning, I do NOT know how to end stories that well yet so when I reach a certain chapter (don't know which one) I'm gonna probably have to ask you kind people to help me out. But we're far from that... I hope.
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha...for all you know (cops come and throw in padded cell with strait jacket) O.O oops!Chapter 2
Caught and Guilty
Inuyasha jumped from the gym rafters so silently that no one saw or even noticed he didn't really belong. He went into 'stealth mode' and began the chase after Kagome.
He stopped in one of the hallways to find her scent again. He crouched the ground and began to sniff the floor right when two girls came around the corner. The first girl had straight black hair and was around the same hight as Kagome. She had brown eyes and light brown skin. The other girl had wavy brown hair and also had brown eyes. Her skin was lighter than her friends' but only slightly. They could have passed off as sisters if they had the same facial features. They were also the same age as Kagome but in Inuyasha's opinion Kagome was way prettier.
First the girls looked at him with confusion, then with disgust. "What do you think he's doing?",the first one whispered. The other girl just shrugged. "Look at his hair, he doesn't look old enough to have white hair". Inuyasha looked up at them but didn't really care that they were there. He did growl at them however but they were to mesmerized by his eyes to notice. "Look at his eyes! There golden!", the first girl whispered. "And his clothes are so out of style but he makes it work somehow. Ya know... he is kind of cute".
Inuyasha couldn't stand them anymore. The way they stared,how they whispered behind their hands, it drove him nuts and not in a good way. He snapped."What the hell are you looking at!", barked Inuyasha. The two girls yelped in fright then scurried down the hall. Where they were going, Inuyasha didn't care in the least as long as they weren't staring at him anymore and distracting him from finding his Kagome.
Once he got Kagome's scent again he was on hot pursuit. 'She can't have gone that far yet, she's a slow runner compared to a demon. And besides, I can smell her tears. She can't be far.' Inuyasha burst through the front doors and found Kagome who was still running. He caught up with her as she reached the entrance to the school grounds. He grabbed her around the waist and held her to him with her back facing him.
Kagome put up a struggle to get away from the one who had captured her. She knew very well that it was Inuyasha but she wasn't ready to face him yet. "Kagome! Kagome stop struggling! I'm not gonna hurt you Kagome!". At that Kagome stopped and turned slightly to look at Inuyasha. She saw the kindness and worry in his eyes. She wondered how he could ever think that she was afraid of him.
"Inuyasha?", she stuttered. "I'm not afraid of you". She hiccuped. Inuyasha just held her closer. "Kagome", he said just above a whisper. "It hurt to see you running from me. I would hate for you to be afraid of me". The look on his face was deep hurt and concern. His eyes were closed and he looked as if he might cry.
Kagome lay her arms over Inuyasha's which were around her waist. "Inuyasha, don't be sad. I'm sorry for running but like I said, I could never be afraid of you", she whispered while laying her head on his shoulder. Then she heard a noise that sounded like a growl coming from Inuyasha. Kagome tried to pull away from him to see what was wrong but he wouldn't let her. "Don't go", he slurred into her ear making her shiver. "Don't leave me alone, my Kagome". With saying that he pulled one of his arms away from her waist and brought it to her neck. Moving her hair away he started nibbling and kissing her there.
She gasped. No way was she expecting that! This wasn't Inuyasha, he was acting too weird. Then it hit. 'He must think I'm Kikyo for some reason even if he is still using my name. Maby because of the song? No way would he treat me like this otherwise', she thought. She tried to pull away from him again and failed. "Inuyasha? What do you think your doing?", she said as calmly as possible so she wouldn't startle or possibly scare him. She didn't know why exactly he was doing this but he was acting different so him being frightened easily was a possibility.
"Inuyasha! Let me go!", she yelled as he gave a particularly hard nip, thankfully not breaking the skin. Kagome wasn't totally oblivious to the demon mating thing. She knew that it required a bite mark to the neck to make the 'engagement'. Then, if she accepted, the bite mark would remain if they were really meant to be together. That, she hoped, Inuyasha wasn't interesting doing. Luckily for her she had a choice of accepting him or not.
Inuyasha growled lightly as a warning as she tried to pull away from him yet again. Kagome was starting to get frightened, more with worry if anything,from his growls which she knew were directed at her actions. "Kagome, you promised you would never be afraid of me", he murmured. 'How did he know I was frightened?', she wondered. 'Wait, he's demon, he can probably sense my emotions like animals can. Why didn't I realize this before?'
"I'm not afraid of you Inuyasha, just your actions. What your doing is scaring me. I'm not Kikyo. I may be her reincarnation but I'm an entirely different person compared to her". He froze. "Oh Kagome! I'm so sorry, please forgive me! I didn't mean it, I really didn't! Something came over me, something I couldn't control!". He was pleading for forgiveness and it broke Kagome's heart to see him acting like a puppy who just chewed up the carpet, begging not to be punished.
"Inuyasha, it's ok, really", she tried to assure him. "No it's not! I shouldn't have done that!"
"Oh Inuyasha, please don't feel guilty! Not because of that! I'm fine! It's not like you attacked me or anything! Please don't apologize! Come on, lets go back to my house. I'll make you some ramen if you like". He only nodded slightly, still feeling guilty about what he had done. Inuyasha picked her up bridal style and held her close for a moment before leaping to the roofs of buildings to take her home.
When they got there Kagome was half asleep and she was shivering slightly. Inuyasha took her inside quickly hoping she wouldn't catch a cold. He took her to her room and lay her on her bed. He removed her shoes then pulled the covers over her shivering body. Smiling slightly to comfort her, he turned to go sit in front of her desk on the floor like he always did. "G'night Kagome", he whispered to her. She said something back but it was so quiet and slurred that Inuyasha didn't understand it but he had a feeling she had said 'good night'.
He fell into a dreamless sleep for a couple hours but woke up around 2:00 a.m. to Kagome calling for him, quietly though as no to wake up her family. Inuyasha crawled the short distance to her bed and sat down again. "Yes Kagome. Are you alright?", he asked, concerned. He began to rub her thigh because he knew she liked it. "Inuyasha, I'm cold", she whispered. "Will you lay beside me, keep me warm? Please?".
He was hesitant to do as she wished remembering what had happened earlier. He didn't want to do that again. What if it did happen and he did bite her? He would never be able to forgive himself. "Please, Inuyasha?", she asked again. 'Her voice is so soft', he thought. Inuyasha got up slowly and looked at Kagome who patted the space beside her closest to the wall. He climbed over her and lay down in the little space. She pressed up against him for his warmth and fell asleep almost instantly but not before saying, "Thanks Inuyasha".
He just smiled and wrapped his arms around her to keep her warmer. At least that's what he told himself if he thought otherwise.
He too fell into a peaceful sleep.
A/N: Well...that didn't turn out as expected. I had a totally different idea when I started to write this chapter. Oh well, there's a one shot for ya.
Well, please, please review. You know, I realised the other day that if a story isn't updated then no reviews. Go figure... (LOL)
Review!
