Kikyo's Return!

Ha, ha, ha! Chapter 8 of my lovely story is complete! Chapter 7 was long! Review please! Thanks!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"Wonder what's been up with Sesshomaru lately?" Inu Yasha pondered.

"Isn't it obvious?" Kagome said irritably, "He misses Leila! Duh! I cannot believe you would even ask such a stupid question!"

"I didn't even know-" Inu Yasha snapped his mouth shut as Sesshomaru approached them.

"Hello, Sesshomaru. Um, listen- I really need a bath. Do you…have one?" Kagome asked, blushing.

"Yes. We have several hot springs inside the castle gates. You and your friends may bathe there," Sesshomaru said distractedly.

"Thanks!" Kagome yelled over her shoulder, having already begun to run towards the hot springs.

"Hey Kagome! Wait up! Come on, I want a bath!" Inu Yasha yelled after her. He caught up with her easily. "I want to use some of that…. Um- shap-yoo?"

"Shampoo- and I guess I could wash your hair for you," Kagome said.

They each stripped on opposite sides of the bamboo wall, to keep a shred of modesty, and walked one at a time into the spring. Kagome went in first, with Shampoo and Conditioner, and then Inu Yasha. He didn't warn Kagome but simply walked out, giving her an eyeful. She turned away, blushing.

He really has no modesty- walking out like that! Jeez!

He sank into the water with a sigh. He smiled at her and motioned to his hair. Kagome rolled her eyes and crawled towards him, making sure he wasn't able to see anything over the shallow water. He turned his back to her and she kneeled behind him, immediately aware that in that specific position the water went only just below her breasts. She shrugged- he was, after all, facing away from her.

Kagome picked up the plastic cup decorated with lavender winged faeries. She filled the cup with water and reached around him to shield his eyes as she poured it over his head. She blushed when she realized what she had done. She was accustomed to doing that because that was how she did it when she bathed babies at her part time job as an assistant day care provider. She poured a small amount of her lavender-rose scented shampoo into her palm and worked it into Inu Yasha's hair. He purred faintly when she massaged it into his ears, making her giggle.

"What?" Inu Yasha said, making Kagome jump. She had gotten used to the silence, and the volume in his slightly offended sounding voice was startling.

"N- nothing. Close your eyes," she replied.

"W- What!?! Why?" Inu Yasha said, his voice gaining volume.

"So I can rinse the shampoo out of your hair- why else? This stuff really burns when it gets in your eyes. Now close your eyes and keep them closed until I say, okay?" Kagome said, surprised at how patient her voice sounded- almost like she had all the time in the world to listen to Inu Yasha's silly questions.

"All right," Inu Yasha mumbled, closing his eyes. She rinsed his hair thoroughly before she told him he could open his eyes.

She picked up the conditioner- the scent matched the shampoo- and worked it slowly and meticulously into his thick tangled mass of hair. After which she sat back into the water, letting its warmth wash over her shoulders.

"Why did you stop? Shouldn't you rinse it out?" Inu Yasha asked.

"Yes," she said in the same quietly patient voice, "But with this you have to wait about three to five minutes."

"Oh. The people in your world must have some strange obsession with using flowers in all of your grooming. I smell like that field you were in earlier," Inu Yasha said, sniffing his hair.

"Sorry. I don't have anything else," Kagome said with an apologetic smile.

"No, no. It's fine- I smell like you, too you know?" he said.

Kagome couldn't help but think back to that night when they were trapped inside that little room at the shrine, which was being overtaken by Spider-heads. '…You smell nice,' Inu Yasha had said. '…You said you couldn't stand my scent!' she had exclaimed, blushing all the same. He had replied simply by saying, 'I was lying.'

She smiled at the memory. Her stroll down memory lane, however, was rather brief, as Inu Yasha interrupted her thoughts.

"How long has it been now?" he was saying.

"Long enough. Eyes closed." She poured water over his head, and repeated that until all of the conditioner had been rinsed from his hair. After she was done with that she combed through his hair- with less difficulty than one would have thought- and began washing her own hair.

Inu Yasha turned around and watched her with interest clearly showing in his eyes. After her hair was finished she picked up her Eucalyptus scented body wash and poured a small amount into her hand. Working the soap into a lather she proceeded to wash her arms and legs- which she held out of the water at the time. Inu Yasha leaned toward her and began sniffing her shoulder.

"Um, Inu Yasha, what are you doing?" Kagome said, self-consciously.

"What is that?" he asked.

"Body wash. Here." Kagome once again gathered a small amount into her hand, lathered it, and proceeded to wash Inu Yasha's shoulders, arms, and neck. Her hands stopped on his chest. She looked at her hands, and then into his eyes, which were staring back at her intensely.

Inu Yasha could smell her and it was driving him nuts! He leaned forward, eyes still fixed upon hers, and kissed her. Kagome gasped when his tongue began pillaging her mouth. The first kiss they had shared had been like the whisper of the wind- barely a touch of the lips- but this kiss was passionate and filled with a fiery need. Kagome closed her eyes and moaned against his mouth when he grasped the nape of her neck. He tipped her head to intensify the kiss. Kagome found herself repeating his exploits with her own tongue- scraping along his teeth, exploring every centimeter, dueling his tongue with her own. When they broke apart they gazed at each other longingly, breathing heavily already.

Kagome placed a hand over her heart delicately, as though that would stop her heart pounding so loudly that she was surprised Inu Yasha couldn't hear it. She sighed heavily, looking at the surface of the water, and then him. "So…" she said quietly.

"Um…" Inu Yasha said uncertainly. "We- should be getting back, right? We don't want… the others to- to worry."

"Right," said Kagome.

They both got out and dressed on opposite sides of the large rock that Sesshomaru had put to the side of it- probably for his own little "purposes". After they were both fully clothed they walked back to the mansion in silence.

[MEANWHILE]

"Miroku! You're such a letch!" Sango screamed. (Miroku had been peeping at her during her bath, and Sango is furious).

"Sango! Forgive me! I wished only to make sure nothing would cause any harm to you!" Miroku pleaded as Sango continued to pummel him. His words, however true, were not taken to heart by the Demon Slayer.

"Yeah sure! And I'm really a drunk monkey!" Sango yelled.

When she stopped beating the living daylights out of him, Miroku turned to her. "It's true. I felt a severe evil nearby and I followed in case something happened. You can't tell me that you can't feel it?"

Sango could feel it. "Yeah I know. It's familiar but I can't seem to place it." Sango looked suspiciously at Miroku. "Why were you worried about me? Shouldn't you find Kagome? She's the one with the Shikon Jewel."

"I am worried about you, not Kagome. Kagome has Inu Yasha, and you've got…." Miroku stopped speaking and looked down at the floor.

"You." Sango finished for him. " I have you. I think I understand now. You may be a letch, but I think you have a good heart."

"Thank you Sango. Could I perhaps……………. Um…… hug…you?" Miroku's voice got extremely small towards the end of his question. Sango had never seen Miroku being shy before. She kind of liked it. She swept forward and kissed him lightly on the lips. Miroku gasped, but pulled her back towards him so that they could engage in a more satisfying kiss.

"Kagome," Inu Yasha murmured into her neck, inhaling her scent. They lie together in the soft bed. Inu Yasha is laying on top of Kagome, bracing himself on his elbows. Kagome has already removed his haori, and Inu Yasha has removed all of her clothing except for her undergarments. Kagome turned him over so she was on top, and rubbed herself teasingly over Inu Yasha's erection, making him groan.

"Had enough, Inu Yasha?" she whispered.

"Feh. You asked for it, woman." Inu Yasha growled as he sliced her bra and panties off with his claws. He brought her down and began teasing one breast with his tongue as he turned Kagome over and underneath him. He rid himself of his pants and slowly moved one hand down to her nether regions. He rubbed the little nub of pleasure and watched her writhe. She gripped the sheets in both hands and whined when he removed his fingers and licked them clean.

He grinned as he lowered his mouth to take the place of his finger. He teased her with his tongue, and his teeth, lapping at her, and biting her lightly with his fangs. He finally brought her to sweet release when he thrust his tongue into her. He lifted his face and licked his lips. Kagome lie there, breathing heavily, and he merely gazed at her for a few seconds, before swooping down to capture her lips in a kiss.

She decided it was time for Inu Yasha to get some pleasure from this experience and slowly moved her hand downward. She enclosed his hard shaft in her hand and began to move it up and down. She watched as Inu Yasha's eyes snapped shut and his breathing became ragged and shallow. She brushed her fingertips across the tip and Inu Yasha grabbed her wrist.

"Stop," he pleaded.

"Why? I know you were enjoying it." Kagome said, teasingly.

Inu Yasha opened one eye. "Do you want this to be over before it's even started?"

"Oh, it's far from over Inu Yasha… you are half demon after all." she grinned when he released her wrist.

She moved her hand back down to once again rub his member, lightly. However, this time she pushed Inu Yasha onto his back and slithered down to take his member into her mouth. Inu Yasha gasped and groaned, shutting his eyes and grasping her hair, halfway between holding her there and pulling her away. Kagome's eyes twinkled as she bobbed her head up and down, enjoying watching his face. She got a primitive satisfaction out of the fact that she had the power to do this to him. Inu Yasha moaned and tightened his hold painfully of her hair as something white hot shot into her mouth. She swallowed the substance and removed her mouth, moving back up to gaze at Inu Yasha's face. His expression was somewhere between pain and pleasure. She kissed him lightly, and he opened his eyes.

She was right. His demon heritage gave him more stamina than normal humans. (Imagine Sesshomaru or Kouga! Jeez, they must never stop!!! ^_~)

He flipped over on top of Kagome. He straddled her and thrust in quickly, breaking through her virgin barrier. She cried out in pain, but the pain soon subsided. Replacing it was a smoldering pleasure. She writhed underneath him, desperately wanting to have that fire ignited. Inu Yasha drew himself out until he was threatening to leave her, and then plunged back into her. They created a wild rhythm, meeting each other thrust for thrust until they were each filled with a searing white hot pleasure that took them up and over the peak of pleasure and brought them plummeting back down to earth. They lie just like that, satiated, clinging to each other, when they fell into slumber.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ < p>When Inu Yasha awoke, and saw Kikyo poised with a dagger over Kagome, an overwhelming fear rose up in him, causing his throat to develop an abnormal lump. The dagger was an inch from Kagome's heart when the blinding pink light filled the room. When the light subsided Kikyo lie against the wall, and the dagger was in Kagome's hand.

"I am sick of you, Kikyo! I don't care who you were, or who you think you are now, but to me you are nothing but the pathetic shell of a human and a constant reminder of Inu Yasha's unpleasant past! Good bye Kikyo!" Kagome yelled as she thrust the dagger into Kikyo's heart.

Fire suddenly filled the room. "Thank you, Kagome, for releasing me from Urasue's spell. Inu Yasha, I wish for you two to have the best of lives together, for she has achieved the one thing that I could not. Good bye." Kikyo's body was absorbed by the flame once again, and the remainder of Kagome's soul returned to her body.

Kagome turned to Inu Yasha. "What is it that she could never achieve, that I have?" Kagome asked him.

"My unconditional love." Inu Yasha replied, smiling, "Now let's get back into bed. I'm tired." He yawned as he pulled Kagome under the blankets with him and fell asleep with her clutched to his chest.
