While Kagome is sneaking around with Logan, Tony was doing his own sneaking. He still went every other weekend to Japan and every now and then would extend his trip for a week. Nodoka and him were growing closer than ever, they would talk about everything, He would tell her how Kagome was doing and she would telling of her so called boring life in Tokyo. But Tony found it fascinating, everything she said and did, he found fascinating.
While Souta was at school or out with his friends Tony and Nodoka would spend time together, going out to lunch, having tea, dinner. Tony hired a maid to do all of Nodoka's housework so it looked like she was home. Nodoka's father - in - law knew that she was seeing Tony, but he didn't mind. It was time for Nodoka to begin a new life, and there was no one better that her first love, he even told her.
"Daughter, you deserve to be happy and if your relationship with Tony Stark makes you happy you should pursue it."
"Oh, Father, there is no relationship between Tony and I, we are only friends getting to know each other again. Maybe one day something will happen between us, but not now."
"I think you're wrong, I believe it has, but neither of you will admit it. Though who am I to comment on matters of the heart." With that he left and went back to sweeping the shrine.
On Tony's end no one knew of his weekend trips to Tokyo, until one day Pepper figured it out.
"You know, Tony, you're gone an awful lot these days, every other weekend that Kagome isn't here it seems. And you're not using the jet, always your Iron Man suit. You never tell me where you're going, should I be alarmed?"
Tony gave Pepper an innocent look, "No, Pep, there's nothing to worry about. I'm just spending a little me time, you know helping out where I can, consulting for SHIELD."
Pepper narrowed her eyes at Tony, "Why don't I believe you? Usually your 'me time' involves parties, alcohol, women, and me doing damage control. There hasn't been anything on the news about Iron Man being spotted doing anything, and you hate SHIELD. What are you hiding, Tony, where are you sneaking off to?"
Tony acted offended, "I'm not sneaking off, besides why do you want to know?"
"I NEED to know in case of an emergency with Kagome or the company and I need to get a hold of you." Pepper argued.
"JARVIS can get a hold of me, if there's an emergency."
Pepper stares at Tony, looking at him straight in the eyes, she puts her hand on her chin.
"You're seeing someone secretly."
Tony's eyes widen, then he plasters on his poker face. "No, what gave you that idea?"
"You've changed, you're happier. I mean you've been happy since Kagome entered your life, but now you're the happiest I've ever seen you. You stopped drinking, you're not as sarcastic as you used to be or that big of an ass. Something's happened and the only conclusion I can think of is that you're seeing someone and she means a great deal to you. And the only person that has ever meant that much to you was…"
Pepper's eyes widen and she covers her mouth, "Oh my god, you're seeing Nodoka again!" Pepper practically yells.
"Shh! I'm not seeing her, well I am, but not like that. We're just friends right now. We're trying to see if we can get beyond friendship and move on to something more serious, but we don't want the kids to know. We don't want to get their hopes up."
Pepper squealed in excitement, she jumps into Tony's arms and hugs him fiercely, "I'm so happy for you, Tony, you deserve to be happy."
"Thank you, Pepper, I appreciate that, you have to swear not to tell anyone especially, Kagome."
"You have my word."
It had been two months since Logan and Kagome started dating and so far so good. Kagome went back to going every weekend to see her father, but in reality on the weekends that Tony wasn't there, she would meet Logan either in New York City or in a few towns over and they would spend the weekend together. The first time they did this it was a little awkward, because Logan had rented a hotel room with only one bed. When they got to the room and Kagome noticed, she blushed. She was going to say something to Logan, but at that moment he had her against the wall and they started making out.
Logan lifted Kagome and she automatically wrapped her legs around his his waist. He carried her over to the bed and laid her down with him lying next to her. Logan took off his shirt, then kissed her fiercely, as he kissed her, he ran his hand up and down her clothed body, enjoying the feel of her full breasts through her blouse. Logan would give her mind drugging kisses, nibbling along her jaw and neck while he unbuttoned her blouse leaving her in her bra.
As he kissed and nibbled his way up to her ear, he whispered in a husky voice, "I want you."
Kagome's only response was to blush. She suddenly came to her senses when she felt Logan grind his manhood into her thigh
"Wait, wait," Kagome said through gasping breaths.
"What's wrong?" Logan asks, panting in her ear.
"I'm sorry, Logan, I can't, I can't have sex with you."
Logan sighs and rolls onto his back. He takes a deep breath and rubs his face. "That's alright, Kagome."
Kagome felt so bad for leading him on. "It's just that I promised myself that I would wait until marriage to give myself to my husband. Are you mad at me?"
Logan looked at her, "No, I understand, this is something precious to ya, I won't pressure ya. I guess I'll just have to wait then," Logan says with a smirk.
Kagome's eyebrows shot up. "Oh really?"
"That's right, you're mine and I ain't letting you go. Unless you tell me to leave."
"Well, aren't we possessive." Kagome said with a smirk.
"Damn right I am."
"I don't think I could ever send you away, Logan"
"Thanks, Princess, maybe we should get ready for bed."
Kagome nodded and changed into her pajamas while Logan put on a pair of sweats and a t-shirt. The both got into bed, Kagome with her back to Logan and Logan with his arm wrapped around her waist. Logan didn't have any nightmate, he hadn't slept that well in a very long time.
So that's how it went, Kagome got used to driving to New York so that Happy didn't have to pick her up. Then she would spend every other weekend with Logan. They still shared a bed at the hotels though nothing ever happened. It was very frustrating for Logan, but it was worth it if he could be close to Kagome.
Eventually, Logan started getting bold enough that he would sleep in Kagome's room back at the mansion, but he would go back to his room in the middle of the night. This went on for a while until one night as he was leaving Kagome's room, Rogue came around the corner and caught him shutting Kagome's door.
"I knew it!" she whisper yelled.
Logan turned to face Rogue and scowled at her, she wasn't impressed, "What are you doing up, Marie?"
"I went down to the kitchen for a glass of milk. So you and Kagome are together, huh,"
"Logan frowned and walked right passed her, "I don't know what you're talking about, get to bed." And with that Logan left.
Rogue smiled and went into her room.
The next morning at breakfast Rogue waited outside Kagome's room so she could talk with her. When Kagome came out, Rogue pounced.
"Morning, Kagome, did you sleep well?" Rogue asked with a smile.
"Morning, Rogue, yes I did thank you, did you?"
"Oh yeah I slept just fine once I got up to drink some warm milk. Guess what I saw last night on my way back to my room?"
"What did you see?" Kagome asked absentmindedly.
"Nothing much, just Logan sneaking out of your room." Rogue said as she kept walking.
Kagome's eyes widen and she stopped in her tracks. Once she recovered she ran after Rogue. Kagome grabbed, Rogue's arm to stop her. Rogue turned to look at Kagome.
"So what's going on with you and Logan?" Rogue asked all excited.
Kagome sighed, "Okay I'm going to tell you, but you have to promis you can't tell a soul. If my dad finds out he'll pull me out of school and send me back to Japan."
Rogue's eyes widen, "No, you have my word, I won't tell anyone."
"Logan and I are dating, we have been for two months." Kagome whispered
"NO WAY!" Rogue yelled
"Shut Up!"
"Oh, sorry. That's so great, are you guys…"
Kagome looked confused for a minute then realized what Rogue meant, "Oh no, we just sleep together, Logan respects my wish to remain a virgin until marriage."
"This is so great, you guys are perfect for each other, I'm so happy for you!"
"Thank you!" Kagome said with a big smile on her face.
Just then her Stark Phone rings, she looks at the caller ID and sees its her mom. She surprised her mom is calling her now, it's late in Japan.
"Hello?"
"Kagome, dear?" Nodoka asks in a sad voice.
"Yeah, Mom what's wrong?"
"Something's terrible has happened."
