A/N: Hey sorry it's taking me a while to update. My computer is messing up big time. I couldn't get on the internet.

Any way on with the story.

______________________________________________________________

"Kagome, are you alright," Toshiro asked her. She was crying, rocking back and forth holding her knees to her chest.

"He's going to kill me. And you! You have to leave. Go," she said pushing him to the door.

"No way. I'm not leaving you alone," he said turning to look at her.

"You have to. I don't want you to get hurt. Please," she begged.

"No! You can try to all you want but I'm not leaving you here by yourself with a psycho after you," he yelled. He pulled her to him in a hug. "Your not safe here, why don't you stay at my place for a while? He probably knows where your friends live so you can't stay with them," he said after a while.

"Are you sure? I don't want you to get hurt," she cried.

"Of course. Come on, let's get you some clothes," he said leading her upstairs, not knowing a pair of red eyes following their every move.

"Damn him," the owner of the eyes cursed.

______________________________________________________________

"Here you can stay in this room. Mine is across from yours alright," Toshiro told her.

They had got her necessities together and drove to his apartment.

"Thanks. I think I'll just get some sleep," she said. She had stopped crying after a while. All that was left was tear stains on her cheeks.

"Alright, let me know if you need anything," he said giving her some privacy.

He already talked to his neighbor Rangiku, giving her a description of Naraku, or what Kagome told him, and she promised to keep a look out of him.

Ring Ring Ring Ring

Kagome answered her cell seeing it was Sango.

"Hey Sango."

"Kagome where are you? When you didn't answer your home phone I got worried," Sango yelled into the phone.

"I'm sorry. Naraku decided to pay me a visit, almost killed Toshiro, and got me really scared. I'm staying with Toshiro for a while."

"WHAT?! He almost killed Toshiro?"

"Yeah. Toshiro came in with me and we talked. We actually almost… kissed," Kagome started.

"You almost kissed. What happened next?"

"The phone rung, Toshiro answered, it was Naraku, we didn't see him but he shot my window near his head and hung up. Toshiro suggested I stay with him. I'm sorry I didn't tell you," Kagome apologized.

"It's alright. Well I got to go. Bye," Sango said hanging up.

Kagome smiled and closed her phone putting it on the nightstand by her bed.

'He almost kissed me. Then Naraku ruined it. When I get my hands on him I'll-'

Crash!

"What the?! Toshiro," Kagome called, worried Naraku decided to pay another 'visit'.

"It's alright Kagome. Just an idiot," Toshiro yelled.

Kagome decided to see what was going on.

"Who you calling an idiot," she heard someone yell. Then another crash.

"Dude stop it, you'll destroy all my stuff," Toshiro laughed, and then the other guy laughed.

Kagome looked into the living room and saw a broken lamp, Toshiro smiling, and a orange headed guy. When the stranger looked in her direction, she slid behind the hall.

"Kagome, it's alright. He's my friend," Toshiro said coming up to her.

He pulled her into the living room. She smiled weakly at the pumpkin head.

"Hi, I'm Kagome," she said.

"Ichigo," he replied. He smiled at Toshiro, "So finally got a girlfriend?"

"Shut up. You and Mo-Mo are the worst," Toshiro laughed.

"What are you going to do about it," Ichigo laughed with him. Kagome already liked him.

"So, if you two aren't dating, why she here," he asked.

"Long story," she answered.

"It have anything to do with the guy Rangiku was talkin about," Ichigo asked.

"Yeah."

"Ah, ok. Hey are you two hungry," he asked.

As if it was being asked Kagome's stomach growled, causing a blush to spread across her face.

"I'll take that as a yes," Ichigo laughed. He pulled out his cell and ordered a pizza.

"Thanks, man. I forgot we didn't get a chance to eat," Toshiro said.

"Don't thank me, your paying," he laughed.

"What," Toshiro yelled. Ichigo busted out laughing as he raced down the hall and Toshiro right on his tail. They continued to chase each other when the doorbell rang.

"I'll get it," Kagome yelled. She smiled seeing that they hadn't heard her.

"Hello," she said opening the door, and gasped.

"Hello Kagome," she said.

"What are you doing here," Kagome asked in disbelief. 'Why is she here? She said she never wanted to see me again?'

"Can we talk," she asked.

"About what? How you disowned me? How you yelled at me and told me to get a life of my own and never come back into yours," Kagome questioned, hatred and anger rolling off her. Toshiro and Ichigo were now listening.

"Look I-"

"How'd you even know I was here," Kagome seethed.

"I talked to Sango. She said you were with a friend from work. It doesn't take long to figure it out," Yu-zu said hinting.

"So you still think I'm a little whore don't you," Kagome stated more than asked.

"If you want the truth yes. I mean your staying with two men I'm pretty sure you barely know," her mother answered.

Ichigo was doing his best to hold Toshiro back from yelling and doing only gods know what to this woman.

"Well guess what mom if that's all you have to say then leave. You told me once you didn't want me in your life, well guess what. I don't want you in mine," Kagome said trying to stay calm.

"You may think that but you don't mean it," she laughed.

"Actually I do. Who would want a mother who tells the court I made up the story of Naraku raping me? Who would want a mother who told her daughter to leave and never come back when they're 17? I was finally able to get over it and found real friends, pay for everything with their help, got a great job, actually found a really good guy that I happen to like a lot, and was finally able to forget what a selfish, no-good, horrible, lying, damn bitch that had me. If you never wanted me than you should have put me up for adoption. It would have been better for both of us," Kagome yelled.

Yu-zu snapped and slapped Kagome so hard, her head snapped to the side.

Kagome turned and gave her mother a look that would scare the devil himself.

"You ungrateful brat. I didn't raise you to talk to me like that," Yu-zu said in a dangerous tone.

"No but you raise me to not talk to strangers, so see ya cock-sucker," Kagome said and slammed the door in her face.

Kagome turned to see the guys staring at her. Ichigo in sympathy, and Toshiro was staring at the door with pure hatred. If it wasn't for his friend holding him back, Toshiro would have ripped the door down and beat the shit out of the woman with it.

Finally he looked at Kagome and saw tears running down her face. His face immediately softened. He shook Ichigo off his arms and held them out for Kagome, who hurriedly ran into.

"Shh, it's alright. She won't come here anymore. Calm down," he soothed running his hands through her hair and rubbed comforting circles on her back.

"Pizza," someone said through the door.

"I'll get it," Ichigo said pulling out his wallet and answered the door.

"You alright now Kagome," Toshiro whispered.

"Yeah. I'm sorry about that," she apologized.

"It's ok. Come on. Let's go get some plates and soda," Toshiro suggested. Kagome nodded and walked with him to the kitchen.

They came back into the living room and sat down and began eating. Ichigo and Toshiro started joking around and Kagome cheered up, laughing at the guys. Ichigo would tell embarrassing stories about Toshiro, Toshiro would hit him on the head, and the would wrestle for a few minutes. Toshiro loved it when Kagome laughed. It made him happy knowing she was.

After about an hour Ichigo finally headed home and left them alone.

"So what did you think of Ichigo," Toshiro asked.

"He was very crazy and I think we will be fast friends," Kagome said taking their plates to the sink.

"Well I have another question," Toshiro said coming up behind her.

"Yeah?"

"When you were talking about liking a guy a lot," he began, wrapping his arms around her waist from the back.

"Uh-huh," she said feeling her cheeks heat up.

"May I know who it is," he whispered into her ear.

Kagome began to fumble with her words. Just being close to him made her mind hazy.

"Do I know him," he asked.

Kagome only managed a nod.

"Is is that Inuyasha guy from the club," he asked teasing her by lightly licking the shell of her ear.

She shook her head 'no', biting her lip to keep from releasing a moan.

"Ichigo," he continued to torture her by now nibbling on her earlobe.

Again she shook her head 'no'.

"Is it… me," he finally asked.

She nodded. When he saw it he spun her around and crashed his lips to hers. Her arms found their way around his neck. She felt his tongue run across her lips and decided to tease him a little. She kept them closed tight, smiling against his lips. She felt him smile back, a sound like a laugh came from his throat. He pulled her against him tight. She gasped and he took advantage of it by slipping his tongue in. He roamed her mouth and a moan slipped from her mouth. She pushed her tongue against his and a battle had begun. Soon they felt a little light headed and pulled a part, both taking big breaths of air. She looked up into his eyes. They were staring back at her.

"Uh, I'm going to go to bed," Kagome finally said after a few minutes of silence.

Toshiro nodded releasing her from his tight grip.

Kagome walked into her room smiling. She flopped down onto the bed, lightly touching her lips. A giggle escaped her lips. She turned off the light beside her and fell into a deep sleep.

Kagome's dream…

"Toshiro," she called. Nothing met her ears. "Toshiro!"

She continued to call his name. Finally she decided to go check on him. She walked out of her room and into his. She couldn't see anything around her. She flipped on the switch and a scream escaped her lips. Toshiro was lying there staring at her with wide eyes. Stab wounds were all over his body. Blood dyed his hair red and stained the carpet.

"Toshiro," she yelled running to his side. She lifted his head onto her lap and cried. "No, no ,no. Please not Toshiro, please," she begged hoping this wasn't real. A note seem to appear in front of her. She picked it up and read it.

'Soon, I'll see you soon. ~N.O.'

Another scream escaped her lips.

Kagome sprung up and looked around. Outside her window she saw a pair of red eyes stared at her. She screamed and created a barrier around herself.

"Kagome! What's wrong," Toshiro yelled running into her room. She didn't have time to take down the barrier before he ran into it.

He slammed into the wall, a 'oof' was heard when the air left his lungs.

"Oh my god, Toshiro," she yelled running to his side. She looked him over and saw he didn't get injured or bruised badly.

"Toshiro. Toshiro wake up," she said gently shaking his shoulder.

"Hmm, Kagome what happened," he asked. His vision was slightly blurry and took a second to clear. Then he remembered running in here, hearing her scream.

"Kagome, are you alright? Why did you scream," he asked looking in her eyes.

"I'm fine. I had a really… scary dream and woke up screaming I guess," she said. She didn't want to worry him by telling him she saw her stalker/worst nightmare.

"What did I hit," he asked remembering slamming into a invisible wall.

"Oh I had put up a barrier. I'm a miko. It happens when I get scared. You ran into before I could take it down," she told him, helping him up. He apparently didn't sleep in shirts seeing as he wasn't wearing one. She stared at his well built torso and arms. She had to restrain herself from touching his muscles.

Toshiro saw her staring and smirked. "Like what you see," he asked.

"I… uh…" Another blush found it's way onto her face.

He laughed at her embarrassment. She looked down, her blush growing. He lifted her chin and made her look into his eyes.

"It's ok. You can look all you want. As long as you don't mind me looking," he said.

She smiled and leaned into kiss him. This one was short and sweet. He pulled back and smiled at her. He was going to go back to his room when he felt her grab his arm.

He looked to see her with pleading eyes.

"Do you mind staying here with me tonight? Please," she begged.

He smiled at her and walked with her back to the bed and laid there with her. She curled up next to him, his arms wrapped around her. He watched her lids close over her eyes. He continued to stare at her until her breathing evened out. He closed his eyes and followed her into a dream state.

______________________________________________________________

"Toshiro woke up the next morning and saw she wasn't next to him. He started to panic. He made himself calm down, and stood to go see where she was. He stepped into the hall. He heard someone in the kitchen and saw her looking in the fridge. He didn't notice before but she slept in a giant t-shirt. She was bending over slightly making it rise, giving a little view of her underwear but a full view of her backside. He remembered grinding against it when they first met.

Suddenly his pants started to get a little tight.

Kagome stood up straight and turned to see him leaning against the door frame, again with no shirt. He scared the hell out of her. She almost dropped the eggs in her hand.

"Morning," she said cheerfully.

He just continued to stare at her. She could see lust in his eyes.

"You want some eggs," she asked showing him the carton.

Again, he just stared.

"Uh ok," she said walking over to the stove and cracked two eggs into the frying pan.

She started to stir them with a spatula when Toshiro creped up behind her and wrapped his arms around her waist. He pulled her to him. A gasped escaped her lips when she felt something hard against her back.

"T-toshiro," she stuttered. She moaned when he started to kiss her neck and nibbled on her pulse point.

"You see what you do to me. I need you," he said huskily against her neck.

Kagome turned in his grasp and kissed him passionately on the mouth. He kissed her back and slid has hands down to her ass where he squeezed it. He heard her moan. Then he felt her hand slide down his chest and abs into his pants. He broke the kiss with a moan when she grabbed his erection.

Kagome wasn't new to this. She had done this before but it has been a while. She slowly began to stroke him. Her nail brushing over the tip. He groaned and put his forehead against her shoulder, holding onto the counter to hold himself up. Kagome started to run her hand along him faster. He bucked into her hand. His release soon came, getting some on Kagome's hand. She pulled her hand out of his pants. He lifted his head up to see her licking her hand clean.

He pulled her into another passionate kiss. Kagome soon pulled back smelling burnt food. She turned to see her eggs were black. She laughed at it. She picked it up and started to rinse it out. She looked back to see Toshiro still panting.

She walked up to him and smiled, "Looks like I'm going to go get breakfast."

She walked back to her room and started getting dressed. What just happened kept running through her mind. She never did that until she was sure about someone. But in there she just did it.

Soon she grabbed her cell and walked out of her room.

She saw Toshiro watching tv, still shirtless.

"Will you ever put a shirt on," she joked.

He turned and smiled at her. "Nope."

"Well you better," she said leaning down to look in his face.

"Why," he asked.

"Cause I don't want to share you," she answered walking out of the apartment and down to the Sunrise Biscuit shop a few minutes away. She had no idea what she was in for today.
