The Fairytale that Never Happened

Chapter 11

Two weeks had passed since Inuyasha marked me as his mate. I haven't seen or heard of the Kagome girl who tried to take Inuyasha away from me in that length of time. Miroku said she had gone back home, wherever that was. He explained that it was in some foreign part of Japan, where, however, he wasn't sure and I am happy on that, because, frankly, I never wish to see her again. I'm almost sorry I saved her from that youkai...

...Almost.

I was leaning against the Goshinboku tree when I spotted Inuyasha. He came over to me with a grin, which was quite unlike him. "What's happened?" I wondered aloud.

He merely grinned once again, wrapping his arms around my waist. I leaned into his touch. "Nothing's wrong, nothing happened. I'm just happy that we're ... alone."

I gave him a sly smirk. "What did you have in mind?" I asked him a bit curiously.

He pecked me on the cheek and cradled me in his arms like I was some fragile doll. I smiled. I loved the feeling of him holding me in his arms. I was home.

"I found a ... secluded spot the other day," Inuyasha whispered, his breath tickling my ear, causing a shiver to go down my spine. "Why don't we go check it out? I promise nothing will happen to you."

I smiled and he helped me on his back as he leapt off to his ' secluded area ' of choice.

It was a place surrounded by fabulous, huge green trees with great big leaves as far as the eye can see. There was a hotspring in the middle, and grass surrounded it. It was almost like an oasis in the desert, because around the village it was so hot, while here it was cool and breezy.

"Well, my love, why don't we take a dip in the hotspring?" Inuyasha whispered, his breath once again tickling my ear. I laughed. We had once went into the hotsprings together, and that happened over a month ago. I wondered why he had asked again so much later, but didn't think too much of it as Inuyasha stepped into the hotspring after stripping. I followed soon after, and he wrapped his arms around me, holding me tightly to his chest.

"Kikyou... it's a nice night here, isn't it?" he asked.

I nodded. "You've found a perfect spot, Inuyasha," I told him.

"Hmmmm..." he hummed and then smiled at me. "You're the most beautiful woman I have ever met."

I smiled. That was the most romantic and beautiful thing anyone, especially my mate, has ever said about me. "Hmm, you're handsome yourself."

Inuyasha let out a bark of a laugh and picked me up bridal style in his arms. I shrieked a little, considering I was naked in his arms. "Inu-chan!" I exclaimed. "What if somebody sees? Like that monk?"

Inuyasha smirked. "Don't worry, Taiyja-sama has Miroku under control."

"What, so you have a pet name for Sango now?" I raised an eyebrow at him.

"Well, we've been talking a lot," Inuyasha told me. "About our pasts, and other things. We sort of have a brother-sister bond."

I smiled and played with his ear. It twitched slightly. "Mmmmm... my Inu-chan, are you going soft on me?"

I laughed as I dodged a hit thrown at me.
