Chapter Eight…
I'm a little teapot, short and stout, Kagome mentally sang to keep herself from talking as she slowly wiggled and maneuvered herself to freedom. Here's my handle… And here's my spout! she silently crowed triumphantly as she loosened both of her hands.
It had taken a lot longer than she had thought it would, having had to stop several times for long minutes as Sesshoumaru shifted in his sleep above her.
Sliding the rest of her body free, Kagome grimaced as she looked over her clothes. Yet another uniform was destroyed! Sending a silent glare up at the sleeping youkai, she swore retribution for this—though she had no idea what in the hell that would encompass.
And now to get out of this hole…because I am NOT a bone.
The hole he'd dug wasn't fairly large, but it was deep; the top being over her head by a nice distance. To make matters worse, Sesshoumaru was curled around the entire perimeter. She would have to engage his body with some form of contact to get out.
Judging from the sounds of his soft snores—who knew Sesshoumaru snored!—Kagome started scrambling up the side farthest away from his face. If he woke and was in a biting mood she wanted the slim possibility there that he'd nip his own self while trying to get at her. She was a lot smaller than him, after all.
Finally, after much sliding and silent cursing, Kagome breached the top and came face to foot with Sesshoumaru's giant paw. Wow…
It was kind of…cute? Even the vicious looking claws that tipped each toe were adorable in a lethal sort of way. The pads of his paw, a big as her head, with tiny scruffs of silky white fur sticking out from around them looked almost invitingly touchable. Do NOT touch, Kagome, she told herself as she somehow managed to pull up into a standing position balancing precariously on the lip of the hole in the tiny space left by Sesshoumaru's back foot.
A glance over her shoulder to where his head rested on his front paws revealed that she was around Sesshoumaru's stomach. There was a slight opening to the outside world over by his tail, but then she'd have to come dangerously close to that damned nose of his to get out. To hell with it, girl. Just go!
Her mental pep talk done, Kagome went to make her escape just as Sesshoumaru shifted in his sleep again. The paw she'd been standing in front of moved, causing her to stumble out of its way or risk being kicked back down into the hole. Kagome, feeling herself about to fall anyway, did as every falling human does and grabbed for a handhold. Unfortunately for her the only handhold around happened to be Sesshoumaru. When she realized she was yanking on his fur, Kagome squeaked and let go, falling anyway.
Thankfully she fell into him and not back down into the hole. Well, maybe thankfully.
Hands splayed across fluffy silkiness and face practically buried in his fur, Kagome chanced a look at Sesshoumaru's head. She could barely make it out now through the massive amount of fuzz in her face, but the daiyoukai still seemed to be sleeping. Thank the Kami for small miracles…
Slowly moving her hands, Kagome surmised that she was now buried in his belly and that during all of Sesshoumaru's restless shifting the paw that had been in front of her was behind her…trapping her there. Taking a peek to her right, Kagome screwed her eyes shut as she caught a glimpse of Sesshoumaru's privates—which also happened to be too close for comfort—and quickly turned her head in the opposite direction. Wow…she let herself think as she inched her way further towards the left, keeping herself steady by dragging her hands through his fur.
The sound of a whimper brought her to a dead stop—with even her breathing coming to a halt.
Leaning out slightly, Kagome took a peek in the daiyoukai's direction, relieved to see his eyes still closed. So why the whimper? Kagome slid a little farther towards her escape and then stopped again to judge the slight distance she'd passed. As soon as her hands—which she'd been using to guide herself through Sesshoumaru's thick belly fur—stopped, the daiyoukai whimpered again.
Was he enjoying getting his belly rubbed?
Hm, Kagome mused to herself, Escape now or rub his belly a little and escape later with a story to tell…
Being that she was partially insane now, Kagome chose the latter option and dug her fingers past the guard hairs of Sesshoumaru's doggy form so that her fingers grazed against the pink skin of his belly. She ran them back and forth from where she was currently standing but soon realized his belly was a lot larger than a human standing in one place could rub. And she wanted a story, damn it…
Much to the daiyoukai's enjoyment, Kagome began walking back and forth as she massaged her hands across his stomach. When she came to a particularly delicious spot, she had to fight back the giggles as the daiyoukai whimpered for more and even kicked his leg once in enjoyment. It wasn't until she'd been at this game for quite some time—having lost her need to escape as she sought out more of the daiyoukai's pleasure points—that Kagome realized Sesshoumaru was getting off in more ways than one.
She actually realized this on a downward passage of his stomach. When she looked up to judge the distance from where she was to where she needed to be, Kagome came face to penis with Sesshoumaru.
A dog's penis is red?
*PA*
Inuyasha scrambled across the countryside doing what he did best—which was screaming Kagome's name at the top of his lungs. His ears kept waiting for her accompanying callback, but the sound of her voice never seemed to reach him.
Damn Sesshoumaru… Why did his brother have to go all psycho all of the sudden over his damn miko? Didn't he know that females like her were hard to come by? Yeah, sure. He'd had TWO actually, but damn it. Fuck'en hell!
He bit his tongue to stop the involuntary whimper building in his throat. He was like a child who'd had their toy stolen…
FUCK!
…he HAD had his toy stolen.
Casting a glare over his shoulder where the others followed because his brother wasn't there to stare madly at, Inuyasha's eyes zeroed in on the poodle wrapped in Sango's arms.
It was all that stupid fur ball's fault this had happened. If the poodle hadn't come through the well Sesshoumaru would never have paid his miko any attention at all and all that sweet loving attention would have been his for the taking.
Growling softly to himself, Inuyasha turned and eyed the horizon again. Yeah it was night and yeah there really wasn't any point in chasing after something he couldn't smell the scent of, but damn it to hell! Kagome was alone with the bastard doing who knew what with that sick puppy…
*PA*
"Wow," she said aloud, quickly slapping her hand over her mouth. The sound of her own voice had startled her she'd been trying so hard to be quiet. I think I have enough of a story, Kagome told herself within her mind a second later.
Almost reluctantly disengaging her other hand from the daiyoukai's so soft tummy, Kagome looked around her. It was full night now, so dark she could hardly see in front of her, but thankfully Sesshoumaru was white and that whiteness seemed to stand out in the darkness. Also her eyes had kind of adjusted to the gloom while she'd rubbed his tummy.
Giggling softly to herself, Kagome could not stop herself from giving his personal space another glance. Yep. Definitely red. Definitely…out there.
Feeling herself blush and wondering why in the hell as she was a modern girl and had seen pictures of plenty of penises—animal and human alike, Kagome began working her way towards the daiyoukai's large head. Thankfully he was still sleeping peacefully and was unaware that she'd kinda, sorta taken advantage of him.
If Sesshoumaru ever found out…
An involuntary shudder laced with foreboding raced through her body and Kagome had to stop moving for a moment while her heart rate and breathing calmed down. Once all seemed right, she began inching forward once more. Only once or twice in her trail blazing towards her escape point had she needed to brace herself against the daiyoukai and Kagome applauded herself for not being too clumsy for once. Finally, though, she reached the point of no return…
She couldn't help but eye his huge mouth which she knew to be filled with razor-sharp teeth and his oh-so talented nose. If he took a big enough breath while he was sleeping as she narrowly passed by there, his instincts would let him know in a heartbeat that not all was right and that he should wake up.
Closing her eyes, Kagome whispered up a prayer to the Kamis, praying that they might take pity on her and give her an easy out. Then, taking a deep breath herself and holding it in—as if that would encourage Sesshoumaru to do the same—she sidled forward.
