Why oh why don't I own Inuyasha? I could do with a servant as hot as him ; )

Inuyasha: Hey wench! Shut your damn mouth!

Mandie: Now that's no way to talk to your authoress now is it Inuyasha? I might just make you my servant just to teach you a lesson, because remember… I make the rules.

Inuyasha: Shit…

In the last chapter…

"Inuyasha…" Smiled the breathless priestess as she felt the Hanyou tighten his caring embrace. "I didn't mean…"

"Shut up Kagome." Inuyasha grinned as he brushed his lips gently across her velvet neck.

With that Kagome smiled, she knew her hanyou had forgiven her and was already starting to forget what they had even argued about in the first place. All she cared about now, was holding onto that arrogant, self obsessed boy that held her in his arms.

Chapter two- Addicted to you.

Kagome's bedroom, 23.45

"To truly love another is to see their imperfections as perfection."

Hot tingling breathes caressed the miko's spine as Inuyasha brushed his lips against her ear, causing the priestess to arch her back and moan slightly. Kagome grasped the sleeve of his haori, this was a dream come true for the young miko, her hanyou was there holding her affectionately, but it seemed too good to be true. Inuyasha never showed this much emotion, why had he chosen now to hold her so very close to his heart?

'He must be under some kind of spell.' Kagome thought concernedly. 'I have to help him.'

"Inuyasha, are you - feeling alright?" Kagome asked anxiously as the hanyou gently stroked her exposed stomach.

"Never better." Inuyasha whispered softly into her ear.

"Are you sure you don't feel – any different?" The priestess asked gently as she started to melt into his touch.

"No, I just got to thinking when you left." Answered the hanyou in a low serious growl of a voice. "What you said earlier-"

"Inuyasha I didn't mean what I said." Kagome interrupted Inuyasha's words as she turned to face him, gazing into his stunning amber eyes. "I am so sorry."

"I deserved it." Inuyasha grinned, though there was no hint of his usual arrogance in that low sensual growling voice.

"Now I know you are sick." Giggled Kagome.

Inuyasha laughed, noting the concern in the beautiful miko's deep chocolate eyes. It was the radiance of her eyes that lead him to discover what the aching longing for this girl meant. It was all too clear, the back flip his stomach performed when she smiled at him, why her eyes held him in their sway, the reasons why he felt so strong yet so weak around her, he knew why Kagome's scent intoxicated his senses, why he sought the sweet caress of her velvet lips. Inuyasha now knew why his heart ached each time a tear was shed from Kagome's glittering eyes, he knew why a simple flutter of her long lashes could sweep him off of his very feet and why her sweet voice lingered like a haunting song, echoing in the cavernous depths of his mind. He was in love with Kagome, captivated by her; she was his paradox, the sweetness in his sorrow, the strength in his weakness. Kagome was his one and only addiction.

Kagome stared at Inuyasha as a strange mist overcame his vibrant amber eyes; he looked lost in his own thoughts. It was the way he looked after seeing Kikyou. This thought scared the priestess and she took a step back from her love. She knew that if he told her that he was in love with Kikyou still, her heart would break into a million tiny little pieces. The half demon knew nothing of her true feelings and for self preservation; she had kept it that way; that was up until he held her so close to his body, everything was almost out in the open. A small tinge of regret teased at her though, Kagome had longed to tell her half demon prince that he was the one person that stayed in her thoughts from morning until night, and he even stood firm in her dreams.

She sighed a little and turned around; breaking the hanyou's thought process. Immediately, Inuyasha grasped hold of Kagome's wrist and pulled her close to him. Clawed fingers worked their way into the silken ebony locks, amber eyes gazed longingly into confused glistening orbs of the deepest brown. Kagome's lips parted as she let a small "Oh" leave them. Inuyasha threw the Tetsussiaga aside, creating a loud thump. Kagome gasped in shock and surprise as he did this, she took a step back nervously, what the hell was he doing?

"Kagome, I have been an idiot." Inuyasha growled softly as he took a step towards the confused miko.

"You have?" Kagome asked as she gulped, taking a second step backwards.

Noticing this, Inuyasha stood still, "Kagome why are you afraid? You know I would never hurt you don't you?" His amber eyes searching Kagome's brown ones.

"I'm not afraid." Kagome replied defensively. "And I know you would never hurt me, but I don't think you are yourself just now Inuyasha. Maybe we should pay a visit to Lady Kaede?"

"Damn it wench will you stop worrying about me and just listen?" Inuyasha snapped impatiently. "I feel fine… honestly" He added, seeing the doubting look on Kagome's face.

"What is it?" Kagome asked, shaking slightly from nerves. She was afraid of what she might hear from the bewildering hanyou.

Inuyasha walked over to Kagome and took her shaking hands into his own gently, caressing her hand lovingly with his clawed thumb. He sighed slightly and looked straight into her eyes.

"Look at you. Do I scare you that much?" He asked, disgusted with himself.

"Inuyasha I am not afraid of you." Kagome smiled a little. "The truth is…"

"Kagome was that you? What was that bang?" Called a concerned voice from downstairs.

"Oh crap!" Kagome squeaked. "Yeah grand-dad I – uh – dropped something."

"Is everything alright up there?" Her grandfather asked suspiciously.

"Yeah everything is fine!" She croaked, Inuyasha sighed exasperatedly

"You are a terrible liar." He smirked.

"I am not!" Kagome retorted.

"You aren't alright? Right that's it I am coming up there."

"EEEP!" Kagome squealed. "Inuyasha you need to hide. If he finds you in here I will never be able to come back to your era again!"

"Shit! That's not good" Inuyasha breathed. "Right I'm going out onto the roof. Call me in when it is safe."

"Okay, hurry." She whispered.

Kagome rushed around her room trying to find something to blame the bang on, she heard the floorboards outside her room creak as she noticed the one thing that would give Inuyasha away… the Tetsussiaga. She would have to distract her grandfather by any means necessary. Kagome immediately took off her pyjama t-shirt, leaving her standing in her bra.

The door slowly opened and her grandfather poked his head around the door only to be met with a deafening shrill scream. He himself let out a cry of shock and tightly closed his eyes. Outside a loud resounding THUMP meant that Inuyasha had fallen off of the roof.

"Grandpa I am trying to change! Don't you knock?"
