"Inuyasha." Myoga said with an irritated tone.
He sighed and turned to Kagome, "I have to get back to work." he grabbed her right hand and kissed the top of it.
"Oh, of course. Sorry." she smiled with a huge blush. She held onto his hand.
"Can I see you later today?" he asked.
"Sure. But I think you'll have to sneak me out again. My mom doesn't like me hanging out on school nights."
"Hmm. Then I don't think it's a good idea. I might keep you out to late." he smirked.
"Well, if you decide you want to hang just call me." she let go of his hand.
"Okay. Now get back to school. Be safe." she smiled at him one last time and walked away to the bus stop. Inuyasha watched her walk away.
"That's Kagome eh?" the flea asks.
"Yeah." he turns back to the garage.
"Wow. She's…something. She was kissing you like it was the last kiss of her life or something." the demon followed him. "You're going to win that bet, for sure." Inuyasha told him about the bet earlier that day.
"Shut up and let me get back to work." he squatted next to a Honda and started to work on it. Throughout the rest of the day in the body shop he continued to think of him and Kagome making out.
'Damn, I never thought a kiss from her would do this to me.' he started having thoughts about what it would be like when they had sex.
"Inuyasha stop day dreaming!" he heard Myoga snap.
"Ah give it a rest old man." he paused. "Wait, Myoga I got to ask you something."
"What is it?"
"Do you know who killed my father?" the shop turned quiet.
"Why are you asking?"
"I'm just wondering-"
"Well don't wonder then. Don't start asking Inuyasha. Be smart." the answer stunned Inuyasha. Myoga always told him everything. "It's time for you to leave." he said coldly.
'Everyone that I asked told me the same thing! What's going on?! Why wont anyone tell me anything!?' Inuyasha got up and looked at him.
"What are you talking about? The shop doesn't close for another hour." he started putting away his tools.
"Sesshomaru is up in my office with Jaken. He wants to talk to you."
His ears perked up, "Are you serious?"
"Yeah. Now go on, go talk to him."
'Why is he here? I didn't do anything….' he thought as he walked into Myoga's small office. Sesshomaru was standing in the middle of the office, looking as if he owned the entire place, and Jaken in the far corner watching the scene.
"Inuyasha." he gave a small smile, "Nice to see you here instead of the court house eh?" He smiled back and nodded. Sesshomaru motions for him to sit on a small chair next to the small desk. He waited till after he was seated to start talking, "I need you to do me a favor."
'Oh shit.' he thinks and takes a deep breath.
"What kind of favor?" he tries to sound interested.
"A shipment needs to be delivered in about 2 weeks. And I need a good trust worthy man to do it, you." he stands still as he talks.
"Sesshomaru, you know I don't deal drugs or anything. I only collect debts, you know that." Inuyasha swore he would never deal drugs, no matter what. He see's Jaken smile a wicked smile.
"I wish it were that simple Inuyasha." Sesshomaru puts his hand on his shoulder, "You need to get over what happened to your dad. And you owe me." The last sentence stung Inuyasha's heart. "And if you want to move up in the gang, this would be a great opportunity."
"Count me out then. I can't do it." he was starting to get worried.
'I knew something like this would happen. I should have just stayed in jail!'
"I know you'll do a great job. By the way, how's your mother? Haven't seen her in a while." his hand tightened on Inuyasha's shoulder.
'What the fuck? What does my mom have to do with anything?!' he stares at his leader.
He lets go of Inuyasha's shoulder, "2 weeks, remember that. Come on Jaken lets go." they start walking out, "Oh and I heard you've been asking about you dad." Inuyasha nodded, "My advice is to let it go."
"I don't think I can." he was starting to feel uncomfortable.
He gave a frustrated sigh, "Well, if you find out anything, let me know. The gang's got your back."
"Thanks." he replied and they left. He stared at the closed door and thought about the drug deal.
'Do I even have it in me to do it?' his instincts were screaming at him, telling him no. 'If I want to protect mom and Shippo…I have to do it.' He got up from the small chair and left the office.
Kagome jumped into the shower and started washing her hair. 'I wonder if he's going to come….' she thought. When she was done she wrapped herself in a red towel and walked to her room to get achange of clothes. She was startled when she saw Inuyasha laying down on her bed with his eyes closed.
'He's on my bed….is he sleeping???' she remembered she was only in her towel and her face turned red, 'Oh crap!' she didn't want him seeing her half naked so she tried to be quiet so she wouldn't wake him, if he was sleeping. She slowly bent down and picked up her sleeping clothes and went to her drawer to grab her underwear.
"Don't worry. I won't look." Inuyasha said still laying on the bed with his eyes closed.
She let out a sigh of relief, "Thanks." she rushed to the door and closed it behind her and went into the bathroom.
'Oh my gosh… I can't believe he was in my room!' she quickly changed into a big baggy shirt and wore boy boxers underneath. She quietly opened the door to her room, closed it and walked over to the bed and sat on the edge of the bed and watched him 'sleep'. He moved his hand and rested it on her lap.
"Did you just want to hang in my room?" she asked softly.
'I'm so tired.' he thought, 'hanging here doesn't sound too bad…' he opened his eyes and smiled at her.
"Tempting…." he whispered. He wrapped the hand that was on her lap, around her waist and pulled her on him, so she was laying on top of him. She put her arm on his chest and put her chin on it and stared into his half closed eyes.
"You look so tired."
"I am." he sighed.
She laughed, "Maybe you should go home then. You're going to school."
"Oh am I?"
"Ohhh yeaaahhh." she stretched her neck and kissed him on the lips.
"Well if I get more of that, I'll definitely think about it." he pulled her body up more and started kissing her. He starts kissing her slowly, then when she allows him to deepen the kiss, they start kissing with more intensity. They both begin to breath heavily as their tongues collide and dance together. Inuyasha remembers how Kikyo use to kiss him, it was hot, but they way Kagome kissed was more exciting, sexy and addictive. He rolled over on the bed so he would be on top of Kagome.
'Don't push her too far…' he kept reminding himself. But it was getting more difficult as Kagome kept shoving her tongue in his mouth and how her scent was overpower him.
He started to kiss her neck as she gasped for air. "You're wearing a really big shirt." his voice was raspy. His hands were having a hard time locating her small body in the big clothes, so instead he slid his hands under her shirt and slowly lifted it up to show her bare stomach. She tried to take his shirt off, but she's was to busy kissing him, so he sat up and took it off himself and returned to kissing her. Her fingers gently caressed his chest and shoulders while he kissed the hallow of her neck. Her shirt was sliding off her shoulder, so he began to kiss her there.
"You wear a bra to sleep?" he asked when he saw her bra strap.
"Only cause you're here." she whispered.
"Great." he said sarcastically. He moved his hands to the small boxers she was wearing.
Kagome was starting to lose control, but when she felt Inuyasha's fingers hook both her panty and boxers and felt him starting to pull them down, she snapped out of it. She grabbed his hands to stop him.
"I- I'm not ready for that. Inuyasha, stop." she gasped.
He kissed her neck one last time and then sat up while she still laid on the bed.
'Relax.' he told himself. He wanted his body to cool down, 'Shit, I went too fast.' She sat up and started adjusting her pajamas. 'I have to keep my cool when I'm with her.' he scolded himself.
He sighed and ran his fingers through his long messy hair, "Sorry."
She looked at him, "No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have urged you on. If you're mad I'm sorry."
"Don't worry I'm not mad." he moved to the edge of the bed and let his legs dangle off the edge.
She sat crossed leg beside him, "It's really kind of hard when you're a virgin." she tried to joke around.
He looked at her, "I didn't mean to force you or anything."
She touched his hand, "You didn't."
"Listen, no matter what happens….I'm not with you to get into your pants." he didn't know if he was telling the truth or another lie.
"Lets just take things slow." she suggested.
"Sure." he got up from the bed and walked toward the window, she followed. "I guess I'm going to go home now. I got to you know, cool down."
She giggled, "Sorry." He grabbed her chin gently and kissed her.
"See you later." he stepped onto the window sill.
"Hope so." she watched him jump out the window and run into the darkness. She turned and jumped on her bed. "Sweet Lord…. That was amazing…" she closed her eyes and pictured everything that just happened.
Inuyasha was walking home with his hands in his pocket and deep in thought. He kept ragging on himself for letting this get out or hand. 'Frick, every time I get close to her I forget everything! This thing with Kagome is suppose to be a bet, damn it! I can't be falling for her! I just have to keep reminding myself that I'm only interested in her because of the bet.' his brow furrowed, 'I better ignore what I suspect are REAL feelings. Feelings can't be a part of this game.' he felt an odd pain hit his chest, 'Shit, I wish I could just run away with her. Forget the gang, the bet….just me and her….' he finally reached his house. He saw his mom peaking through the curtain windows. She opened the front door for him and hugged him tightly.
"Oh I was so worried!" he could smell tears forming in her eyes.
"Mom." he hugged her back and they walked into the house. "Why were you worried?"
She sat on the small chair in the living room, "Well Sesshomaru came by and asked for you. He wouldn't tell me what he wanted you for…" she paused, "But before he left he told me that you were asking around about your father." she lowered her head to hide the tears, "You have to stop asking questions about your father, Inuyasha."
"Why?" he tried to keep his voice calm. Shippo was starring at the two from the corner. "Why doesn't he want me to find out!?"
"Don't question me, Inuyasha. There are things you don't know. Things you should never know. You have to let it go…"
"I'm not afraid of the truth! Why is everyone covering up the truth!?" he shouts at his mom.
"Inuyasha, please don't…"
he sighs and wraps his arms around her, but she flinches. "Huh?" he slowly lets go of his mom.
'I didn't even squeeze her that hard.' he thinks. He lifts up her long sleeves and see's bruises.
"Mom? Did…" he couldn't form the words.
"You need to stop asking questions about your father." she pulled her sleeves down.
"Sesshomaru did this to you?!" he grabbed her arm and sniffed it. "HE DID!" the stench of his leader burned his nose.
"Mom….?" a little voice cried. Izayoi turned around and Shippo ran into her arms. "Are you okay?" he asked rubbing her arm gently.
"Yes my dear, I'm fine." she shot a quick glance at Inuyasha. "It's time for you to go to sleep." she started walking toward her room, "You too, Inuyasha. You have school tomorrow."
He watched his mom walk into her room and close the door. 'He calls her mom now? I didn't even know that.' he walked into his room, 'Well she is pretty much his mom….' he tried to keep his mind occupied by thinking about Shippo. But soon enough Kagome's face popped up into his mind. 'What am I going to do about her….?' he drifted off to sleep.
