Ch 19 – Someone Make a Move

Koga was in his room with Ginta and Hakkaku, the two assistance were extremely tired from the training. "Tomorrow is Monday Koga, Sesshomaru wanted us out, are we going to stay in a nearby hotel? For the fight I mean?"

"No, I am extending your stay." Sesshomaru said in the doorway

Ginta and Hakkaku jumped at surprise, Koga, however, was used to Sesshomaru's interruptions.

"Since you are going to help in the battle with Naraku, I will extend your stay."

"For how long?" Ginta asked

"For as long as I see fit." Sesshomaru said walking away.

"It's creepy how he just lurks in doorways like that." Hakkaku said turning to Koga.

Koga shrugged, he figured it was Sesshomaru's house so he can do as he pleases.

"We just need to focus on the battle and getting Kagome to be my woman." Koga said relaxing back into his bed.

Ginta frowned, he spend the past two days training with Kagome and he liked her a lot. She was nice and kind and clearly her heart belonged to Inuyasha. She was so sweet he hated to think of her being used as a ploy for publicity. However, Koga was his boss, his means of living and he needed to follow his boss's orders.

The next day Kagome woke up and went to Sango's room, she softly knocked on the door.

"Come in" Sango said, Kagome walked in and smiled at her. She shut the door behind herself and walked up to her bed and sat down. "What's up Kagome?"

"I just wanted to talk to you….about Inuyasha…." Kagome said looking down and playing with her fingers.

Sango sat up smiling "Reeeaaallllyyyy" she wiggled with excitement "you liiiiiiike him!" she sang.

Kagome's cheeks went pink and her hands "I think I do…. I've never liked anyone like that before….what if he doesn't like me…."

Sango rolled her eyes "He is head over heels for you!"

Kagome looked up with wide eyes "Really? How do you know?!"

Sango shrugged "I can just tell, he always helps you, is always starring at you, and he trips over his words when he's around you."

Kagome got a small grin "So Miroku likes you too!"

Sango was now the one to blush "WHAT?! NO!" she said waving her hands

"Yes!" Kagome said giggling and then she took a big sigh. "But if he likes me, why hasn't he made a move yet?"

"If you like him, why haven't you made a move?" Sango said raising an eyebrow.

"Okay…. You got me." Kagome laughed.

"What about Koga?" Sango asked

"What do you mean?" Kagome asked confused

"He's been watching you and flirting. And he, unlike Inuyasha, has been laying it on thick." Sango said tilting her head toward Kagome.

Kagome thought back to the past days of training and her eyes widened "Oh my gosh, I didn't even realize!"

Sango giggled, "Why don't you go talk to Inuyasha, tell him how you feel."

Kagome smiled and stood up "You're right Sango, thank you" Kagome left the room and Sango smiled watching her leave.

-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-.-

Kagome was walking down stairs and heard Inuyasha talking with someone, it was Koga. She stopped to listen.

"Why would she be interest in you? I have money and I can give her anything she wants." Koga said in a cocky tone.

"That's not Kagome! You don't even know her!" Inuyasha snapped

"I don't need to. I want her as my woman. She's about to be in the papers like crazy and I deserve her." Koga said folding his arms.

"ENOUGH"

Both boys turned to see Kagome standing at the bottom of the stair case.

"That's enough." She said walking up to Koga. She looked him straight in the eye and SLAP!

Koga froze and then touched the new red mark on his cheek. He turned to Kagome in surprise.

"All my life, I have been treated like a piece of property! Not anymore! Not by anyone!" Kagome said with her hands on her hips.

Koga blinked in surprise.

"I am not your woman and I never will be." She pointed to Inuyasha "I love him, understand?!"

Koga nodded.

Inuyasha's heart was flipping. He'd never seen Kagome take charge like that! It was amazing, and did she just say that she loves him?! Kagome turned to face him. Koga was still starring at her in surprise, but it didn't matter. He knew where her heart lied. Now he did. Kagome walked over to him slowly.

"Inuyasha…"

Inuyasha grabbed her by the waist and pulled her into a big warm hug and gave her a passionate kiss. He pulled back slightly "I love you too." And then continued to kiss her.

Koga blinked a few more times then went upstairs.
