Titanic
Chapter 6 -- Irresistable
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or Titanic. If I did, I would freak out and cry of happiness. But you don't see me doing that.
Summary: Same as the movie, only it's not an old woman telling the story, it's actually happening and the plot is twisted up a bit. Travel back to 1912 with Inuyasha and Kagome for my personal Japanese version of a romantic classic

Kagome rushed into the third class hall where the dorms were. She wasn't exactly sure which dorm Inuyasha was in so she knocked on random doors. She'd already been through two different hallways just searching. Finally she knocked on a door that wasn't his but the person knew where to find him.
"Excuse me, is this Inuyasha's room?" she asked desperately.
"Umm no, Miss, but I can tell you where his dorm is." the man said.
"Thank you so much." she panted.
"Just go around that corridor and it should be the 5th room on your right." he said, pointing to a particular hallway. Kagome didn't reply and ran in the direction he pointed to and knocked anxiously on the door.
Miroku answered. "Miss Higurashi! Hello! I didn't expect you to be here."
"Is Inuyasha in there?" she asked, ignoring his greeting.
"Yeah, but he's having a moment. He's really upset and he won't even tell me what's wrong."
"Please, Miroku, I only wish to speak to him for a couple minutes."
He stepped to the side. "Go ahead."
Kagome nodded. "Thank you. And please, call me Kagome." she said when he walked out. He mumbled something but she ignored it and shut the door. She looked over and saw Inuyasha laying on his stomache on the bottom bed with a pillow over his head. His hair was tangled and his skin looked paler than normal.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome called. He didn't move and she guessed he couldn't hear her with the pillow over his head. Hesitantly, she grabbed a corner of the pillow and tugged i off his head. He grumbled angerly and turned his head in her direction with his eyes still closed. His eyebrows were furrowed close together and his face was red despite the rest of his pale skin.
"What the fuck, Miroku? Leave me alone!" he yelled and slammed his face back into the bed.
Kagome stood frozen with the pillow, not sure of what to do at this point.
"Gi' me the plow." he grumbled.
Kagome raised a brow in confusion. As if reading her thoughts, Inuyasha raised his head but didn't face her. "I said 'Give me the pillow.'"
Kagome kneeled next to the foot of his bed. "I-Inuyasha. I wanna talk to you." she whispered softly. She knew that she caused him to be in the mood he was in and felt guilty about it. She tried her best not to raise her voice.
Inuyasha's eyes snapped wide open and he looked down to see Kagome sitting by his bed, timid, as if she were a child. He righted himself on the bed, combing his fingers through his hair and straightening his shirt as he sat up to look at her.
"Kagome? What a suprise. I thought you weren't allowed to be with me anymore." he spoke softer than she did.
"Inuyasha, I'm sorry. I don't care what my mother thinks now. My friendship with you means a million times more to me then getting married to a rich bastard." she held the pillow close to her chest, is if it were a shield.
He frowned deeply. "You're going to get in trouble if you're seen with me."
"I don't care."
Inuyasha stared hard at her, watching her every movement to see if something was up. The way he stared at her creeped Kagome out. He looked at her like he was going to attack her. Then his expression relaxed.
"What made you change your mind?"
"I don't know." she sighed, "I just realized that my life seemed to get a little easier now that I've met you. I can be myself around you instead of some stuck-up, dressed up snotty bitch who does nothing but drink tea and worry about money." she said in one breath. Inuyasha's eyes widened slightly. He slid off the bed and sat in front of her, taking her hands.
"Look, Kagome. Ever since I met you, I feel complete. I never felt for anyone the way I feel for you and I only just met you." He smiled. "And I don't think I'll ever feel this way about anyone else but you. And I know I won't because you're a female."
Kagome blinked in confusion, "What do you mean by that?"
Inuyasha sighed. "I've only come across a few females, ya know? Like the ones I drew in Nagasaki. But they were just a bunch of prostitutes. But you," he paused to take her hands, "you're so much more than what they were and I only just met you. You mean a real lot to me and it killed me when you I had to say goodbye."
Kaogme blushed. "Sorry about that."
"No hard feelings. You were just trying to protect yourself... and I guess me too."
Kagome nodded. "Naraku would probably shoot us."
"Then maybe we should keep our friendship a secret, huh?" he shrugged casually.
"I don't want to keep it a secret. I'm willing to shout to the whole world that I'm a rich girl who found her true self in a poor man's eyes." She and Inuyasha smiled. "I hope I didn't offend you."
"No hard feelings." he smiled. Kagome leaned foreward and hugged him, burying her face in his shoulder. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her tiny body and lightly squeezed her, putting his face in her hair. his hand rubbed her back in a soothing manner. She moaned lightly into his shoulder and hugged him tighter, kissing his neck. Inuyasha jumped lightly but then relaxed when Kagome nuzzled her nose into his neck. He responded by kissing the top of her head like a child.
Kagome kissed his shoulder this time, then his collar bone through his thin white T-shirt. Inuyasha just took a whiff of her hair.
"So we're not saying our goodbyes after all, huh..." he muttered. Kagome smiled.
"Yeah, pretty much."
"What do you wanna do?" he asked shyly, "Since you don't love your fiance and all..."
"Wanna come for a stroll with me?" she asked, her eyes got big and hopeful and he smiled. She was a tricky wench, not to mention irresistable. He nodded his head in quick agreement.
"Where are we going?" he asked shyly.
"Just for a little stroll." she said, a smirk playing on the corner of her perfect, full lips. He only blinked and followed.

"Your knuckles are ashy," Kagome commented as she and Inuyasha strolled along the dock by the first class.
"There's no point in putting lotion on your hands if you're just gonna rub more led into paper." he replied. Kagome smiled politely and ran hair fingers through her hair, twisting he soft locks in her fingers.
"So how long have you been drawing?"
Inuyasha hesitated for a moment. "I picked it up when my brother died. I wanted to see parts of the world I never saw. I travled with my pal, Miroku and drew things and people that caught my attention."
Kagome giggled, "Like that lady you drew nude?"
Inuyasha blushed. "She caught my attention, but didn't hold it."
"What holds you attention?" she pressed, giving him puppy eyes.
He hesitated in shock and embarrassment. Was she dazzling him on purpose? "Uhh... Well-"
"Do I hold your attention?" she asked.
"Most certainly." he cleared his throat, hoping to throw off the shyness he felt at the moment. "I never met a rich person willing to befriend a poor person. It's very kind of you."
"Well I'll admit if it weren't for you saving my life, we wouldn't be here. Thank you." she nodded lightly and smiled.
"I've been trying so hard to get close to you. You intrigue me so many different ways."
"Like...?" she pressed innocently but flirtatiously and he lit up a deeper shade of red than before.
"You're rich." he said, Kagome made a face. "I-I don't mean the money. I mean like... You're not old lady rich like all the other high class women. You have respect for everyone except the people who piss you off. It takes a lot of courage for any class woman to stand up to anyone."
Kagome laughed. "You should've heard what I said to them when we were discussing the wedding."
"What did you say?" he asked, amused.
"I said I wanted a black wedding dress for one... My mother hates that color. Probably because me and my father have black hair and she has grayish hair, almost."
They both laughed.
"What are we doing in first class? I'm not allowed to be here." Inuyasha complained.
"You can be if you're with me. I'm giving you permission to be here." Kagome mused. Inuyasha smiled lightly at her childish flirting and followed her throught the gates.
They entered the Grand Staircase, the same place he went to when he had dinner with her and her family. He even recognized the uptight old people showing off there puffy, too overly dressed for casuality clothing. Kagome looked casual, at least. A light pink dress with no girdle and short sleeves. She had the upper half of her hair tied in a little pink ribbon to match. Her bangs freely bordered her pretty face, the way he liked it. Comfortable and fashionable-- without be over dressed. But she somehow didn't look out of place. She was beautiful like everyone else... who wasn't old.
Inuyasha gasped when he saw Kagura approaching them with an expressionless look on her face. Kagome looked calm when she was up to them.
"Thank you, Kagura." she said softly.
"No problem. Remember, though, If Naraku, Hakudoshi or Karori finds out about his, I'm not in on it." Kagura said as she handed Kagome a small box.
"I know. I'm just greatful that you're generous enough to do this for free."
"Anything for you, kido. I don't blame you for not wanting to marry Naraku. I wouldn't do it either." she said. Kagome nodded and stood on her tip-toes to kiss Kagura on the cheek.
"Thanks again." she said softly. Kagura nodded uncertainly and walked away.
"What was that all about?" Inuyasha whispered in Kagome's ears as she fiddled with the box. He looked down at it.
"I'll show you when we get to my room." she didn't say anything else and grabbed his hand to pull him behind her before he could say anything else.
-x-
Once they reached Kagome's room, she shut the door and ran through the two rooms to see if anyone was already there. Inuyasha stared, watching her every movement trying to see what she was up to. She placed the small box on a big fancy brown dressed and opened it, revealing the big pink spherical jewel. He gasped and walked up to her.
"Holy shit," he murmured. "Is it real?"
"Yup." she said in a bussiness like manner. She carefully pulled it out of the box and put it around her neck. She stared down as she tried to lock it around her neck when she felt two warm hands grab the chains and pull them into the buckle. Inuyasha stepped around her and examined her. The silver chain hung not too far from her neck. The blue heart rested in the small crease of her shoulderblades.
"How do I look?" she asked.
Inuyasha smiled. "Perfect. It looks great on you and with your outfit."
Kagome smiled at the compliment. "Thanks."
Inuyasha stepped forward and took the heart off her chest to examine it again. "Who got this for you? It must've costed a fortune!"
"Who do you think? Naraku certainly has a good taste in jewelry." she snorted.
"He probably just bouth it to get you to want to marry him." he chuckled.
"I like it but his plan didn't work so much." she laughed with him.
"It must take a lot for someone to get such a strong girl like you to love them." he said looking into her eyes now. He let the heart fall free and she met his gaze.
"Not as much as you think." she smiled up at him. Inuyasha chuckled nervously as she stepped closer to him and trapped him between her body and the dresser. He gulped and stared into her expressionless, dark brown eyes.
"Do I fascinate you?" she asked seductively. He couldn't speak, caught deep in her trance. Her eyes twinkled and he gulped. "Then can you do me a favor?" she asked more innocently, but still looked like a seductive godess to him.
"What do you want?" he asked, trying not to fall.
She looked down now, flushing. "I want you to draw me in this necklace."
He let out the breath he just realized he was holding and got his breathing back on track. "Of course." he smiled politly.
"I want you to draw me in this necklace... but nothing else." she whispered, still looking down.
He instantly caught on and he literaly felt his heart stop. She backed away a bit and looked at his shocked form. He looked at her innocent appearance, wanting to love her more than he had in the past. His lips twitched as her face fell into a frown that showed she assumed he didn't want to. But he did.
"Of course." he whispered.
I am so very sorry for my extremely late update. It's school's fault! To make it up to you guys, I'm gonna put in the drawing scene that so many of you asked me for. I won't be writing any of my future stories until I'm done with Titanic. As you can tell, one story is already too much for me. I'm gonna try to get up one more chapter for Christmas though.
This is off topic but everyone who goes on this site must like to read, correct? Try reading the Twilight series. Best books ever, I swear to God... Watch the movie too, if you get the chance. If you never heard of it, it's about very special kind of vampire who falls in love with a human teenaged girl. These aren't your average bloodsuckers either. They don't kill humans or die in the sunlight-- they get all sparkly! And they're all extremely, inhumanely sexy! :D I finished the whole series in like 3 weeks because I couldn't stop reading!
Anyways, lol, here's my update. Enjoy. I never forget about you guys... :)
