Chapter 2: Alone with the Male Hanyou

Great. Just great. I'm alone with him. I've never been alone with a man before. As soon as Kagome thought that, she shuddered and took it back. Inuyasha looked at her as though she jumped a foot in the air.

"What's the matter with you?" He asked.

"Well I will show you to your room now," Kagome said trying to clear her mind and change the subject. She never had been very good at changing the subject. She wasn't good at lying either.

" I can tell that your just trying to change the subject. I have a pretty good sense of smell you know," Inuyasha said smugly. " I am a hanyou after all."

This took Kagome by surprise. She didn't even think of him being one, even though she saw his dog ears. Great. Now it turns out that I'm living with a male hanyou. Now what am I going to do?

Inuyasha could smell her fear. Miroku had told him that she had a strong fear of men. I must have nearly given her a heart attack, telling her that I'm a hanyou.

"Well here's your room. I make breakfast at 7:00 am." Kagome said while motioning toward the newly cleaned guest room.

"Why don't you stay a little longer?" He said as alluring as possible. Suddenly, he remembered what Sango said, "She is off-limits Inuyasha!" He then shook it off and continued his advance. He had Kagome backed up against the wall now. He could hear her heart pounding.

"Please stop. I don't want to go through this again." She said it very quietly, as though she didn't want anyone to hear her.

"What do you mean again? Has someone done this to you before?" He asked.

"No, just forget that I said anything. You weren't supposed to know about any of this." She said. "He told me not to tell anyone. He's going to beat me now."

"What? No one is going to beat you. You and me are the only ones here." He asked, worried that he had done something wrong.

"Please let me go. I don't like this!" Kagome said, crying now.

Inuyasha backed off and Kagome ran from the room. What happened to her that was so bad that it all just came rushing back on her?

Later, Kagome was taking a shower. All she remembered was Inuyasha backing her up against a wall. What happened that made me so emotional? And then she remembered. She sank to the floor and started crying. Inuyasha happened to be walking down the hall. Out of the sound of the water flowing from the shower head, he heard her crying. If there was one thing that he couldn't stand, it was women crying. For come reason hers seemed to drive him even more mad.

He heard the shower head turn off and her stepping out of the shower. He quickly ran down the hall and into the kitchen, pretending to raid the fridge for food. She went in her room and got dressed.

Inuyasha grabbed some leftover steak and stretched out on the love seat in the living room. Kagome came in and sat on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn. She flipped on the T.V. and found a movie to watch.

The movie she came to was Friday the 13th.

"Would you like to watch this Inuyasha?" She asked kindly.

"Sure. By the way, do you have any barbeque sauce?" He asked with a mouthful of steak.

"Yeah, its in the door. Try not to drip any of your steak on my carpet!" She said, giggling.

Kagome grabbed a blanket and snuggled up on the sofa. The movie came back on and she called Inuyasha. She went back to watching the movie. Just as the murderer was about to attack, Inuyasha jumped out from behind the sofa landing right in front of Kagome. Popcorn went everywhere.

"Dammit Inuyasha!" Kagome screamed angrily. "I'm not picking this up."

"You don't have to." Inuyasha said with a mouthful of popcorn.

"You are so disgusting!" She yelled, laughing.

She was looking down at him smiling and then their eyes met. It seemed like forever that they were staring into each others eyes, until Kagome looked away, blushing. Her heart was racing. What is this feeling? I've never felt it before. I feel… happy.

Author's Note: I know that this one is a little shorter. The next one I will try to make less serious. Maybe a little more romantic? I really don't know. Also if you think that this isn't very good, consider that I wrote this at 12:02 am. Well, review and tell me what you think. I would appriacate it.
