Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha

Part 4

"Where is she Inuyasha?" Kagome asked as she griped onto his arm.

"It's hard to get her scent…there's a lot to sort through…"

"Well she left towards the right after she chased that boy, were going left." She said weakly. Inuyasha turned around, almost swinging Kagome. He suddenly picked up her scent. He wandered towards it, his nose twitching as he walked past people smoking. It brought him to a table, covered in Sesshomaru, Koga and San's scent. Koga's had departed towards the right somewhat, and the other two went to the balcony. Inuyasha moved forward pushing people forcefully out of his way. Kagome followed meekly, Waving and apologizing to the teenagers and adults that got pushed too hard. She caught up with Inuyasha and placed a hand on his arm.

"Inuyasha, your hurting people, just moved between them." She said pulling him back slightly. Inuyasha nodded and moved slower, making sure Kagome's hand stayed on his fore arm. He wasn't about to let some weakling like Hojo steal her. He paused his thoughts.

Why did he care?

Inuyasha walked forwards moving between the humans as Kagome had asked. His thoughts dangled in him head repeated over and over again. He had known Kagome for a long time. And his hate turned to friendship, to admiration, to love. He paused. Love? He shook his head negative and moved for ward to the balcony.

"Stop I say!" Inuyasha and Kagome turned their heads and looked for the person who spoke.

"Down here!" They looked down and saw a miniature man blocking Inuyasha's path, a large staff in his hands.

"Hey I know that staff!" Kagome said, moving closer behind Inuyasha. He paused forgetting the interrupter and felt the warmth of Kagome's chest pressed against his back.

"Now! Back away!" Inuyasha snapped back, his face turning into a scowl as he looked down to the small imp. He placed a foot on his head and forced it down, walking over him. He grabbed the staff in the process and flung it over the railing as they walked onto the large balcony, looking for the demons. Jaken got up and looked between the bars whining.

-

"Do you remember what you did at the fight?" He asked softly, his body much closer to San's then before. He faced the ocean a smirk starting to show.

"…" She looked down at his legs and then down to the trees below them. "I'm so sorry… its just-well you did touch my…ahem..." She said smugly.

"Yes…hmmm I should pay you back." San tensed up. So this was what all this was about. For kicking his groin, he was going to kill her. Her body shook as she turned to face him. His hands were resting on her shoulders encouraging her to turn to face him completely. She looked down at his chest. If she were going to die, it would be better not to look into his golden sunrise eyes. A hand left her shoulder and cupped her chin using his finger to bring it to eye level. He dropped his hand and gripped one of hers in his. He brought her shoulder close to him squeezing her hand. He crushed her body with his.

"I spent 500 years looking for you." He said lightly. She looked up at him surprised. 500 years? He brought her back and lowered his face. San's eyes closed as she felt his lips find their way to hers. She gripped his hand tightly, his right hand clenching her shoulder. Sesshomaru pulled away to look at her, his eyes darting around her face for a sign of disapproval. Her eyes open, the blue contacts covering her own golden eyes. At some unspoken signal both closed their eyes and kissed again, lips pressed firmly to each other. Almost timidly Sesshomaru lightly licked at her lips, asking for entrance. They parted with a gentle sigh, allowing him to deepen the embrace, both mutually exploring leisurely, hungrily. San's arms slid up his chest to wrap around his neck, no longer caring about the people around them. They parted out of breath and San looked up at Sesshomaru in surprise and wonder. She touched her lips with her free hand her eyes looking at his chest, uncertain what to do next. This was pay back?

Sesshomaru watched her expression before giving her hand a final squeeze and letting go. She looked up at him, at a loss for words. She backed away, moving a foot behind her. Her hands was still touching her lips, but soon slowly made it's way down to her side. She looked at Sesshomaru, her eyes filled with confusion. She shook her head and ran, their hands tearing apart. She closed her eyes as she ran, wet tears streaming down her face. His outer coat lay on the balcony.

-

Inuyasha and Kagome watched with open mouths as the kiss broke. The silence between the two entities. San back away uncertain, and than ran. Inuyasha watched her disappear into the crowd before walking up to Sesshomaru. He growled.

"I understand Inuyasha. I should have waited. But...I couldn't." Inuyasha faltered at his older brothers uncertainty. Kagome stood behind her Hanyou friend scared and worried.

"I can't believe you did that to her…" She started, but Sesshomaru turned resting his forearms on the railing as he looked at his hands. His fists clenched as his silver hair covered his eyes.

"Sesshomaru- I don't think she's ever been kissed before, you can't completely blame yourself." Kagome walked out from Inuyasha. So matter who it was, Kagome would make them feel better. Inuyasha stood quietly, his fists hidden in his traditional clothing.

"Its just- she wore the clothes the same when I first met her… I couldn't." Kagome placed a shaking hand of the Youkai's arm, and comforted him. Inuyasha stood stiffly and walked over towards his family member.

"I've never seen you voice your feelings before- nor do I ever want to hear it again. But still, San is a friend- even if I've only known her for a few weeks a month at the most. I don't…want to see her hurt anymore or less than my friends or Kagome." He walked behind Kagome and placed a protective hand on her shoulder. Sesshomaru turned to his younger sibling and smiled. "Your right. I do care." He paused at his own words-they had escaped before he could stop them.

Kagome smiled. "I knew you could." Sesshomaru ran to the far side of the balcony- Inuyasha and Kagome at his heels. He looked around the sand following to footprints. Another scream was heard. People crowded around.

"Hey look! A girl caught up with Takishi's gang! She's a goner!" A boy said pointing. Sesshomaru watched as a few men, 11 or 12, grab San. Sesshomaru blanked out his eyes slowly glowing a red. He looked back and motioned to some one. Inuyasha looked back and saw Koga. He growled and held Kagome closer placing a hand ready on the rail. He looked to his brother who nodded. They both jumped off, landing of the ground and began to run. Inuyasha had but Kagome on his back when jumping- not trusting Koga on the balcony.

-

San screamed as they began to tear away her kimono ripping the bells off so they wouldn't cause a distraction. Her hands were held by to boys each side and another two tried to spread her legs unceremoniously. She screamed again, using her strength to force her legs together.

"Hurry up!" A mean looking teen with blonde hair said as he waited for the boys to strip her.

"Boss- she's keeping her legs close. She won't open up."

"Fuck that!"

"I-" the boy dropped onto the sand, blood covering the black leather on his back. Inuyasha walked towards the leader- beating anyone who came in his path.

Sesshomaru walked towards the men holding San, his body-hidden in the shadows his eyes red, pupils a bluish. He began breathing hard.

A boy holding one of San's arms turned around and saw the shadowed menace. "There's another one!" he screamed, getting the attention of the others helping him. Sesshomaru jumped up and grabbed two boys around the throat and threw them into the pine trees behind him. The other holding her let go to fight. They brought out knives and chains. A boy ran at the youkai- swing a silver chain around. Sesshomaru caught the chain and wrapped it around the boy's own arm and punched his face. In uncomfortable silence was heard from this man. The silver hair man looked at the others', dropping the man onto the turf. The others ran some tripping and falling.

Sesshomaru ran to San wrapping his outer kimono he had found on the sand around her in modesty. San continued to cry, her body half covered. She had almost been raped. Her eyes stared at noting as she lay in Sesshomaru's arms.

"Come near me and she dies!" Inuyasha stopped mid way in his punch and looked at the man holding Kagome. He pressed a knife to her throat-drawing little blood.

"GET AWAY FROM HER!" Inuyasha bellowed. His growl became an almost roar as he ran forward. Takishi lifted away the knife from her neck and smashed his face into hers. He crushed her lips with his, smashing her body against him with the hand about her waist. Kagome screamed and struggled, but he was too strong. He kissed her harshly biting into her lip. Kagome pushed away, kicking. Takishi drew for breath-suddenly she was gone.

Inuyasha was running not far off the cover of night hiding where he was going. Takishi looked at the girl he had almost raped. Held by another silver haired man. He watched him stand up and walked towards him, the man's eyes going steadily redder as he approached. Takishi took a step back into another man. He turned around to see a short black haired boy with completely blue eyes. He grinned.

Now the gang leader began to sweat. Gold replaced red as he nodded to the new comer and walked off. Koga moved forwards, cracking his knuckles evilly.

"There's not gunna be enough left of you to fill a glass with Takishi. Good night."

-

Kagome and Inuyasha stood on the balcony. They stood close, their arms touching. Kagome turned around getting Inuyasha's attention. Tears blurred her vision and wet her cheeks as she stood before him.

"I-Inuyasha?" She said quietly, her voice cracking.

"Yes?" He said just as softly, wiping her tears.

How dare that Takishi bastard kiss her before he did? I might have been her fist too. A first kiss should be with someone you wanted to kiss, not some asshole that wanted to- Inuyasha cut off that thought before it went too far and got his imagination going. Kagome was safe now.

"I wanted it to be…" she threw herself into his arms and sobbed: "I wanted it to be you the first time!"

Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her and held her tight. It was her first kiss! That asshole! "I'll kill him," he thought in a hot rage, "I'll rip his-"

"Please…Inuyasha…. please help me forget." She looked up and closed her eyes.

Inuyasha's breath caught his throat as he realized what she was asking of him. He licked his lips and buried his fingers in her hair. She was so beautiful with her lips softly parted, waiting for him to kiss her. Him! He looked down at her and-

He stopped. Sesshomaru holding San strode in the sand not far off. Kagome opened her eyes and blushed watching Sesshomaru's figure comes close. She jumped out of Inuyasha's arms and ran inside, leaving Inuyasha to hold his heart as the storm clouds blew in.

-

Kagome sat on San's bed wiping her forehead with a damp cloth. When San woke up, she would cry herself back to sleep. When they had gotten to her, she had very little coverage, her kimono ripped to shreds scattered across the beach. She sent Inuyasha to gather the remains and bring them back. Kagome placed them in a garbage bag in the basement. Well, it was more of a cellar but it was where San would never see it again, and never remember that moment. Kagome stroked her hair, moving it out of her eyes when it got in the way. She sat up a slight tingle going up her spine.

"Its my fault." She saw Inuyasha and Sesshomaru at the door. Inuyasha placed his head on the doorframe, every so often knocking it against the wood. Saying 'my fault' over and over again. Sesshomaru walked beside Kagome. For a split second he looked at Kagome. She knew he wanted to be alone. Truthfully, she was scared of this new Sesshomaru. The hard, warrior…. had a soft spot. She looked at Inuyasha as she took the cloth off San's head. She smiled. It ran in the family. She placed the bowl under one arm, care full not to spill any, and she walked over to him. Inuyasha stood up strait, his eyes unfocused. Kagome gasped. She ran to the door.

Her mother's car pulled up and Sango and Miroku stepped out. Kagome jumped for joy but quickly closed the door San and Sesshomaru were in.

"Sango!" She jumped at Sango and both caught each other. They hugged than she moved to Miroku. Inuyasha moved closer, taking his hands out of his sleeves. Miroku sighed and opened his arms. No such luck. She smiled and jumped back.

"Did Shippo get their okay?" She asked her voice soft.

"Yes. He wanted me to give you this." Sango took a small top out of a pouch, the bright blue, yellow and red standing out. Kagome gasped and took it handling it as if it were glass.

"H-his favorite top!" She said softly as they walked into the condo. Inuyasha smiled as he walked with them inside. Shippo was safe. Now at least that worry was gone.

-

Sesshomaru sat on the bed. His legs sat like a tent over hers, his knees bending. He watched her, carving her face into his mind. The way the sun shone on her rosy complexion, how the silvers and whites of her hair mixed. How the sheet that covered her melded with her body, taunting him. He smirked. He rested his arms on his knees, his back fixed against the wall. She moaned and opened her eyes. The golden of them seem to illuminate the room. His eyes looked the bedside table, where there was a glass of water and her color contacts. She brought her legs close pushing into the dog demon's leg. She jumped up and saw him staring at her, at first her eyes were full of complete shock, then they became scared.

"Please, there is no need to be frightened." He placed his hand on her bare shoulder, and she felt a wave of heat wash threw her body. She began to tremble her body shaken. His touch reminded her of the night events- all of them. She began to cry. She had almost been raped. A feeling like that just didn't go away. It would haunt her.

She gasped as she body slowly moved, two strong arms bringing her close. She was placed against Sesshomaru's chest, his arms wrapped around her. She placed her hand close to her chest her cheek resting on his body. Her legs pulled close to her tears spilling down her cheeks.

-

'"WHAT!"' Both Miroku and Sango said together as they stood up, about to march to the room they new Sesshomaru was in.

"Wait! Wait!" Kagome said trying to sit them down. "You have to hear the whole story!" She shouted over their bickering. Inuyasha sat in a chair in a quiet corner. Sango looked to him, the back to her friend.

"Okay. Lets hear it."

Kagome took a deep breath. "We went to the traditional dance, and we got separated. San went one way with a boy, and Inuyasha and I went another. After a while, we got worried and looked for her. We found her on the large balcony, the one on the second floor. When we found her, she was kissing Sesshomaru." Sango gasped and Miroku twitched.

"Is anything wrong Miroku?" Kagome asked.

"No…I am just…. so totally jealous!" he raised his head, tears streaming down. Sango waved him off.

"Continue Kagome." She said.

"Anyways, she ran right passed us and we moved over to him. He was really sad. Its like she put some of her self into him, making him nicer and more open. We talked, and then heard a scream. We ran to the other side of the balcony, and saw San and some men. 10 or something. Anyways, I got on Inuyasha's back, and we jumped down. Inuyasha fought the bad guys and Sesshomaru went straight to San… then…" Inuyasha got up from his seat and sat beside Kagome. He placed his hand over hers, getting some 'looks' from his friends. "…And…" She squeezed his hand. "Takishi, the ring leader, grabbed me from behind. He told Inuyasha he'd kill me…then…" She placed a hand over her lips. Inuyasha squeezed her hand tighter. "He kissed me… he kissed…" Kagome broke down and Sango moved to sit beside her. She patted Kagome's other hand, taking notice at how sincere Inuyasha acted towards her. Sango smiled.

"Kagome… the way you act. It was your first kiss was it not?" Miroku stated as he stood up. Inuyasha jumped up, standing in the wooden table.

"DAMN fucking right it was her first! I'm gunna kill the Mother Fucking Bastard! I'm rip out his fucking lungs and shove them down his fucking throat!" he said about to stomp out the door; he moved his hand on the knob.

"Your not the only one Inuyasha." He turned around to see San standing beside Sesshomaru. Both Sango and Miroku jumped. Miroku rested his hand of the prayer beads. "I wanna kill the fucking bastard, and I don't swear." She said grumpily about to march out the door. A hand pulled her back.

"First get some clothes on love." Sesshomaru whispered in her ear.

"LOVE!" Inuyasha screeched. He turned around the face his older brother as San exited to room to get dressed. "WHAT DO YOU MEAN LOVE!"

"Quiet Inuyasha, people at the hotel can hear you." He ignored the question. Kagome was about as shocked as the rest of the people were.

San came out jean shorts, red top and a necklace that looked strangely like a few shards.

"Kagome? Where are our jewel shards?" Inuyasha asked, watching the necklace.

"Safe."

"Where?"

"Where you or any other demon can't get them." She said resting her hand on the part of her body, lower than he stomach. He looked at her shorts, baggy and had no pockets. That meant there were most likely in the small things he found that were covered in the females scent, which meant it as close to the body…

"What are you smiling at!" San asked.

"Hentai." Kagome accused. San, Sesshomaru, Sango and Miroku chuckled.

"NO! Not even!" He said pressing his back against the door. He looked down at where he knew the shards they had collected where. And gulped.

"I taped them to my tummy okay?" She said as she poked his chest. "No one will go there…right?"

"Not as long as I'm around!" Inuyasha shouted again. He opened the door.

"Wasn't Kagome pregnant?" all eyes turned to Sesshomaru.

-

Sesshomaru walked beside San his arm held her firmly in place around her waist. He went back to the hotel to get changed, but came back soon after, wearing shorts and a button up shirt, undone. Kagome, Sango, Miroku and Inuyasha didn't believe it was the same Sesshomaru- Kagome was almost convinced he was a different guy. Miroku walked beside Kagome, his head bowed in thought.

"Kagome, San is a full demon now right?"

"Yes."

"You remember when she was caught with the Tetsusiga?"

"Ya…!"

"How could she touch it with the barrier?" Miroku asked taking Kagome and Inuyasha aside a bit.

"Hmmm…could it be cause she's a woman?" Inuyasha said, his eyes watching the sand pass under them as they walked.

"Maybe- we can't try that out we don't know any female demons beside her in this time." Miroku said, both confirming and pushing away the thought.

"Hmmm… lets worry about this later." Kagome said standing strait. "This is a summer vacation, and it's not like she can transform, it right?" They moved faster, catching up with Sango, San, and Sesshomaru.

They all enjoyed a delicious breakfast and coffee. (Or liquid horseshit as Inuyasha called it). Kagome sat under Inuyasha arm, on his lap, seeing as how they're went enough chairs. They all got funny looks from every body when they did this Kagome went on eating, a little flushed. Inuyasha looked away, sudden interest in whistling and the funny people walking in. Sesshomaru smiled as he placed his right had on San's thigh, startling her. She dropped some of her noodles onto the ground and her lap, the hasty dried off her leg. She looked up and saw her brother, Higato coming.

"Hey!" She shouted and stood up, walking towards him. "Where were you Higato? I was getting worried, I thought you went to a friends-"

"I was fine-San. You don't need to worry bout me all the time." He shrugged it off then walked with her to the group. He notice Inuyasha dressed in some of his 'bad ass' clothes they had got them. He looked like a punk with a hot babe on his lap. Higato looked at Kagome in her small shorts and tank top. She blushed when she saw him looking and got rewarded with a growl from the Hanyou punk. Higato smirked then pulled up a new vacant seat as he saw San move beside a pretty boy. Higato watched his sister out of the top of his eye and he bended to grab then seat and pull it forward.

Sesshomaru, or pretty boy, placed his arm on the back of hr chair and griped her shoulder. Higato gave them a level stare, his mouth somewhat open. A small sound came out of it before his hand slapped over his eyes and he leaned back. The hand slide down and he looked at them again. San giggled, making small bubbles in her smoothie.

"Why does every body have the same impression?"

"You told be the last time you saw each other, San you kicked him… there." The couple winced outwardly and San looked down. Sesshomaru whispered something in her ear so soft even Inuyasha couldn't her it. His hand trailed up and down her thigh lightly, caressing it. All of them watched as San went red and slurped her smoothie fast, her eyes concentrated on the small umbrella. Sesshomaru chuckled. Inuyasha, Miroku and Higato turned green and Kagome and Sango went as red as San.

"Oh man… San, Sango…. How about…we…go swimming?" Kagome asked spilling out what came to her mind first.

"Sure- but only if Sango comes." San said, letting go of her death grip on her smoothie.

"I don't know Kagome- those… second skins…"

"Awwww!" All the boys said at once. Sango slid down in her chair.

"Sango- every bodies doing it- look out at the surf. No-I said Sango, not Inuyasha, Miroku, Higato or Sesshomaru!" She turned the white haired demon's face away from the girls bouncing around in their bathing suits. "Hey! If Yuki comes back soon from her job, we can have a volley ball game!" San said as she jumped up. Kagome got off Inuyasha's lap and followed her to the condo, both talking rapidly as they walked. Sango ran towards them, her feet flinging up sand.

The boys looked at each other.

"Volleyball game-"

"Swimsuits-"

"Jumping around-"

"Swimsuits-"

"I'm IN!" They all said in unison as they ran to follow the girls.

-

"Do I really have to Kagome?" Sango said as she stood in a full suit.

"Come on Sango! You're not showing as much skin as us! Relax! No one but your friend will really matter, other boys, ignore them!" San said pulling playfully on her arm as they struggled to get her out of the girl's room. Sango's was a vertical striped dark green and black one that had the Addidas logo on her breast. San was completely red string bikini Yuki bought her, saying it brought out her eyes. Kagome didn't go that far and had a normal teenage boy-attracting bikini of blue and green, the colors going their own ways. Her black hair rested on her shoulders and back loose, much like Sango's. San smiled.

"Just this once Sango?" San asked nicely. "Pweeze?"

"Fine! For a little while!" Sango said caving in. truth be- she wanted to see Higato again. Ahh and to watch Sesshomaru's aura changing. Ya… Sesshomaru…

-

They agreed that it was okay for Sango to sit on the towel and guard their stuff as the rest swam. Or almost. Higato sat beside her on her right wearing a pair of fairly baggy black swim trunks, showing off his well-muscled chest. Miroku sat on her other side, a little bit more distance put between them. Miroku steamed as he watched Higato causally look out the corner of his eye at Sango and make her blush and look at their friends on the waves. Miroku watched as the boy moved a little bit closer when she wasn't looking and lean on his arms behind him, his oiled chest shining some what as he head remained in the shade. Miroku twisted the towel that he was holding as he glared at the young punk. Damnit! He saw her first! What did he think he was doing?

Sango turned to him and saw him sparks flares in his eyes at Higato. He has some nerve! She moved away from both of them, getting a shocked surprise from both men. She had enough! She walked down to the waves and shivered slightly as they cold water washed over her feet. She put her hands on her hips as she saw San on Sesshomaru's shoulders, kicking water at Inuyasha and Kagome. She watched Inuyasha. He was laughing. His hand moved around Kagome's side and she didn't seem to notice! The perfect couple. Inuyasha would protect her with his own life and she would do the same for him. As soon as they gathered the rest of the shards… She looked back at Miroku. Or more specifically, his right arm. They wind tunnel was slowly closing; it's powers slowly vanishing. She watched him get up and grab a beer from the cooler that Higato brought out. Would he stop asking women once it was gone? Would he- she stopped her thought, as he looked towards her a small crooked smile coming from his lips before he looked away and talked hotly with Higato.

Ho hum. She looked back at the happy couples. If he hasn't stopped it now, when he knows that it's going-then he won't stop after. She slowly moved forwards, taking small breathes as the cold water slowly climbed up her legs. She stopped at about waist height and moved the palms of her hands over the surface. She looked up at Sesshomaru. He seemed to be way different from the old Sesshomaru…. Or was that the young… this one was older but- ahh never mind! Future Sesshomaru if way different from the past Sesshomaru! The past one would have never voice his feelings, kiss some on he barely knew, talk to his brother like they had been friends for a long time. Or save someone! He would just turn around and leave. Could Kagome be right? Could San have put a part of her in him when they kissed? She shook her head and continued forward. No way.

-

Sesshomaru held onto San's thighs as she kicked water at his brother and Kagome. He didn't know why he was here… in the water. A part of him went a bit crazy- in a good way- at the thought of San in the bikini she was in. The other part said No. Business only. He was here for the Tetsusaiga. He had…passed by… when San had been playing around with it. He watched from a distance. She had taken it, and the spell seemed to not work. His plan seemed full proof. He would work it up with her, make her love him and do what he asked. Then get the Tetsusaiga right from under Inuyasha's nose. How dare his father give such a weapon to his bastard brother? But what he didn't count on was giving the love back in return. After that kiss… She seemed to place a tiny bit of her gentle soul in his. At first it was uncomfortable… then he grew with it. He watched Kagome and Inuyasha, the gentle part of his soul working; Koga would come soon to reclaim his prize. A prize he did not earn. San had come to him by herself Koga did no part. All he did was stop the boy. He went right San went straight towards him. He watched Kagome jump in Inuyasha's arms as Sango came up beside him and helped them. San and Sango exchanged words and took on Inuyasha and Kagome, who finally started to fight back. He smiled. He would figure this out later… right now… WATER FIGHT!

-

Fushigi watched the group from the highest level in the Sea-Side hotel. He had been holding his Aura in for about 4 days now, since Sesshomaru came. He knew that Sesshomaru was a worthy adversary- a heartless foe. He had been fighting him for the lands of the west for some time now he would just wave off the death of human women- and some demon. Yet he cared or this one girl…. She could be very useful.

-

Mikoto sat in his chair his large backside slipping off his eyes glowed as he watched San on the surface off water, trapped in a highly decorated bowl on a pedestal.

"So, she has mad a powerful ally with the great demon of the west has she? A wise choice…." His large rumbling voice echoed out of his mouth, startling several human servants. "I bet he is playing her along… shall we read his thoughts? Or better yet… his soul?" His loud voices sounded again as his throatily laugh haunted the building, echoing in ever room. His webbed finger passed over the pool as it zeroed in on the young white haired dog demon.

'…I should tell her…no she would hate me… why do I care? She's just a women there are plenty more female demons… but she's special… I don't know how… but she is…Oh! Inuyasha you are going to die when San and I get you!…' Mikoto splashed the water, the image and voices gone.

" So he doesn't know." He snorted startling a female Hanyou daughter at his side. "Sesshomaru has changed as well…San has either begun to work… or her…magic is working by itself. I will get her!" The fruit in his fat webbed hand dripped into the floor below.

-

Kagome ran threw the water, her arms in front of her in case she fell from the water that fought her fast passage threw. Inuyasha came up behind her, gaining fast from her 30-second head start. She was still at about waist height, after they had all went father in after the water fight. Kagome tripped, her hand passing threw the liquid. Her hair passed over her eyes as she looked threw the crystal water before she broke the surface. Her back arched, her hair flipping behind her and plastering against her back with her bath suit.

Inuyasha watched as he stood at mid chest height in water his mouth open some what as Kagome's arms moved around her chest. He knew humans wrapped their arms around each other when they were cold. He moved closer slower, the wave around his chest sinking some what to his waist line as he came up behind Kagome. He placed his arms over hers startling her. She looked up at him, her head resting against his chest. He smiled awkwardly getting a smile in return. Her smiles… even more addictive then a drug. He wiped a small drop of drool from his chin and walked up behind Kagome. Sesshomaru, San and Sango had beaten them and Miroku and Higato just talked the whole time. Inuyasha noted Sango was sitting closer to the new boy than her old friend. So that was it… He raised a dark eyebrow before sitting on Kagome's towel.

"Hey! You have your own towel!" Kagome said as she pushed him off. Inuyasha growled.

"Bitch." He muttered under his breath and looked away. When he looked back he found Kagome looking at him with a sly know-it-all smile.

"No…"

"Inuyasha? Sit boy!"
