Chapter 3. The Question
The next morning Kagome awoke in Kouga's arms.
"Hmm," she moaned as she strected her arms abover her head and turned to face the wolf.
"Goodmorning," Kouga said sweetly. He had been awake and watching her for what seemed like hours now. "She's beautiful when she sleeps, and even moreso when she wakes up." he thought, raising his hand to brush the hair from her eyes.
Kagome kissed him and then wrapped her arms around his torso. She leaned her head against his muscled chest and hummed again, "I'm glad you invited me out here last night."
"I'm glad you came," Kouga smiled, kissing her lightly on the top of her head. "Well, as much as I would love to just lie here with you all day, we really should get back. I have a few things I need to attend to today."
"Alright," Kagome said relictantly. "What about breakfast?"
"Good question. What about fish?" Kouga replied.
"Sounds good to me," Kagome answered, gathering her things.
After catching enough fish for Kagome and himself, Kouga walked back to camp from a nearby stream. Kagome had already broken down most of their camp, leaving only the necessities for the morning. Kagome eagerly accepted her share of the fish from Kouga and began to cook them. Breakfast was eaten quickly, and afterwards Kouga helped break down the remainder of their campsite.
Kouga leaned forward and kissed Kagome gently on the lips before picking her up and running towards his den. After he set Kagome down inside his chambers, he wrapped his arms around her waist, pulled her close to him and kissed her deeply. The kiss was short, but left them both panting heavily. "I hate to leave you at all, but as I told you earlier, I have a few matteres to attend to. I won't be long. You may stay in my chambers, or walk around the den if you like. The only thing I ask of you is that you stay until I return, and that you stay near my pack. My brothers and sisters will protect you while I am not with you."
"I promise Kouga. Now, go take care of what you need to do. I will be right here when you return," Kagome gave him a smile, wink and a peck on the lips.
After Kouga left, Kagome decided to take a nap. The two of them had stayed up nearly the entire night. When they finally went to sleep, she was so excited that she didnt sleep very long. She walked over to Kouga's bed, which was more like a thick pile of furs. She laid on the furs and covered herself with a blanket which was also made of furs.
"Ooh, these are so warm and comfy," she whispered to herself just before falling to sleep.
Several hours later Kouga came back to his den. Sensing that Kagome was still in his chambers, he smiled and walked forward. "I wonder if she's been in here all day," ke said to himself. Sniffing the air he realized that she had, and that she was asleep. He walked into his chambers quietly and was overjoyed at the sight of Kagome sleeping in his bed.
Deciding not to wake her, he got into bed with her and pulled her gently into his arms. Kagome was sleeping so lightly that this small movement woke her and she turned to face Kouga.
"Back already? How long was I asleep?" she asked, rubbing her eyes.
"It's been a few hours. I'm all yours for the rest of the day, that is if it's ok with you?" Kouga gave her a questioning look.
Kagome kissed Kouga gently on the lips. "Of course it's ok with me! Is it ok if we go for a walk? I've been laying down for too long."
Kouga chuckled. "Sure, lets go."
Kouga and Kagome talked while Kouga led her through the forest and towards a chearing with a spring and small waterfall.
"This place is beautiful, Kouga! I didnt know there were any waterfalls in this part of the countryside," Kagome says, eyes wide with amazement.
"It really is isnt it?" Kouga smiled. "My mother used to bring me here to swim when I was a child. It's always been sort of a secret haven for me. A place I like to visit when I need peace and quiet. I wanted to bring you here because I wanted to talk to you about something important."
"Ok. So, what do you want to talk about?" Kagome inquired.
"Well, I have to ask. I know you care for Inu Yasha, but I would like to know if you've ever considered him as your future mate." Kouga said, somewhat shaky.
"To be honest, at one point, yes. I used to think I loved him. I thought I wanted to be with him forever. After a while I realized something though," Kagome started as Kouga looked at her with worry in his eyes. "While I do love him, and I always will, I love him more like a big brother. He's my best friend, Kouga. He'll always be in my life and in my heart. Life wouldnt be the same without him in it.But do I want to be his mate? No, no I dont."
Kouga felt a huge wave of relief come over him at the last thing she said. "I was hoping you would say that, Kagome. I know I'm usually obnoxious. I'm sorry that I'm always running around barking about you being my woman and all," they both giggled. "But you see, I really do love you. I would do anything for you. I know that by now you would have to know that I'm really not as obnoxious as I seem. I really love being around you, and, well, point is I wanted to ask you if you would consider becoming my mate."
Kouga held his breath while he waited for her answer. Kagome felt like she couldnt breathe. After a short moment of silence while the proposal was settling in, Kagome burst into tears and lunged at Kouga's neck. She wrapped her arms around him and buried her face in his neck. Kouga was almost concerned when he heard her whimper something into his shoulder.
Kagome looked up at him with teary eyes. "Kouga, I know I've never led you to believe that we could ever be anything other than friends. Truth is though that for a while now I've dreamt of you asking me that. Yes, Kouga, I would love to be your mate."
The two of them smiled from ear to ear and held each other tight. This was what they had both been waiting for for a long time.
I'm sorry the chapter is so short.
