Act on it
…………
Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha nor do I make money out of what I write. I do it just for fun. Unfortunately, Inuyasha belongs to Rumiko... *sigh*
…………
A/N: I don't know how I fell about this chapter... well, the end is coming soon, but I'll still play around with the characters a bit before that. Don't be so surprised that Kagome and Inuyasha are so open about their private life in this story - it's just so it can make things more embarrassing and - hopefully - funnier. Enjoy :)
…………
Naturally, it wasn't the last movie Inuyasha and Kagome had to do together. When it released, Still Breathing was the biggest success with ridiculously huge crowds waiting for it. The fact that it had both their favourite actors was a plus. Actually, it was what made the movie amazing. Their performance was flawless - the movie was a triumph for both the director and the actors.
But despite all that, there was nothing more Kagome wanted than to be done with all the praising, awards and everything else. It seemed she had to spend quite a large amount of time with Inuyasha, and it wasn't something she wanted. But they had to act very civil around each other, lest they would disappoint their fans. Polls had appeared all over internet as to how much it would take until they became an item. A real-life item. It was all nonsense, Kagome considered, but she guessed people liked deceiving themselves. It was her opinion. Well, that until Inuyasha appeared at her door at 2 o'clock in the morning. Very, very pissed off.
Eyebrows cocked, Kagome welcomed him inside and he stormed past her, not even bothering to say anything. She assumed it had to do with his sour mood rather than his manners. Minutes passed and neither said anything. The silence was becoming uncomfortable, so Kagome decided she should say something first, seeing as Inuyasha had no intention of starting a conversation with her. Actually, he wasn't even facing her, as he'd strolled by the window and kept staring outside.
“Uh… is there anything I can do for you?” Her tone was calm, pleasant, after so many years of practice. Finally, he turned around and she could still see his furrowed brows. His irritation was a palpable notion.
“As you can see,” he drawled spitefully as if she'd killed him and he wanted to get back at her, “I'm horny.”
Kagome was agape. Swiftly closing her mouth, her eyes switched of their own accord to his pelvis, where she could clearly see his rather... bulging issue. Blushing genuinely, she tried to keep her gaze on his face this time. After everything, she couldn't believe she was being so shy, but having him in her house in the middle of the night openly declaring he was horny did that to her. She couldn't decide if he wanted to be `serviced' or to… what else? she asked herself.
“Um… okay,” she said, trying to keep calm, “And what are you here for?” She didn't want to jump to conclusions - that usually brought her nowhere - so she did the only thing she could: she waited for him to answer.
Without any trace of shame or hesitation, “You did this,” Inuyasha said, slightly thrusting his hips forward so there would be no mistake as to what he was talking about. Kagome stood staring stupidly at Inuyasha's form, trying to realize what he was saying. You did this, her mind repeated incessantly before continuing on its own, Now you fix it. Suddenly, she felt the voracious need to jump into the hanyou's arms and tackle him to the ground like before and then…
…………
“Like before?” I snap, feeling my cheeks heat up at the implications. What before? When?! Nobody mentioned any previous time something like this happened. Is this what I felt they're hiding from me? From my angle, which is a perfect one, Kagome's cheeks are all rosy. She's flushed, while Inuyasha is the colour of blood.
“Fuck, I thought we weren't going to tell anyone!” he says, rubbing his palm over his face in sheer frustration. Busted, you guys!
“It slipped!” Kagome counters, defending herself. I just grin. They can't be more obvious.
“What did?” I decide to chime in, grinning from ear to ear. Soon they'll be telling us all about it, if I know them well enough. Inuyasha sighs and looks at his feet, avoiding my gaze. Heh, that's nice.
“You might as well tell him now,” I hear him grumble and secretly praise him for the comment. Yes, Kagome, please do so! But she's not so wonderful anymore. “No!” she all but shouts, her eyes wide as onions and really, it's quite a cute sight.
“Why not?” he snaps, “You're the one who told him anyway!”
“It slipped,” she clarifies once again and her eyes narrow in challenge. This is what I've been waiting for! It's so fun and easy to just watch them quarrel.
“Fine,” Inuyasha drawls, smirking, a fang poking out from under his lips. “Have it your way then.” Looking at me then, he snickers. “If she doesn't want to tell you then I'll tell you.” For the first time, Kagome leaves her seat in a flash and appears in front of her husband, looking like… well, I wouldn't know, since the only thing I can see is her back. They're probably having a glaring contest, and Inuyasha's clearly won from the dejected way Kagome goes back to her seat.
“That night at the café we stayed till late, just chatting. After a while, the café was just too crowded and hot for us to stay in, if you catch my drift. And then we decided to take it somewhere more private. Somewhere where she could tackle me to the ground and have her way with-”
“Shut up!” Kagome suddenly says, her eyes wide. I'm in love with Inuyasha's sincerity.
“What, love? Isn't it how it happened?” he asks, pretty much amused. Can't blame him, though, but his wife is mortified.
“So why did you still act hostile around each other?” I can't help but ask. I'm intrigued.
“It wasn't an act,” Inuyasha says seriously. “I couldn't control myself around her anymore, so it ticked me off.” Yeah. He's straightforward like that.
“Inuyasha!” Kagome scolds, glaring at him as he glares back.
“Everyone knows I'm a half demon, bitch, so it's pretty obvious!”
So that time when he dashed out of the room in the middle of a scene and… whoa. Too much information.
“Can you return to what you were telling us Kagome?” I ask, trying to stop them from killing each other in front of me. Suddenly, her mischievous eyes tell me she's up to something. Smirking, she goes, “Sure, Shippou.”
…………
Stuttering, Kagome could only gape at him. “Wh-what do you m-mean?”
“Jesus, wench, you should be able to figure it out; you're not entirely clueless! Do you want me to spell it out for you?” he snapped angrily, clearly annoyed. Was it because he was hard as a rock or because of his usual self? It was probably both. But soon her irritation kicked in. “I understand your predicament, idiot, but I don't understand what you're here for,” she explained, furrowing her brows and crossing her arms over her chest as a sign of protest. He huffed then, showing his fangs ever so slightly. “What? Are you here so I can fix this for you?” she asked in annoyance, gesturing towards his obvious hard-on.
Flushing, Inuyasha backed away a few steps. “N-no, dammit! Actually…” he looked away “I don't know what I'm here for.” He looked contemplative for a minute and she thought he was seriously considering fleeing before he continued, “But anyway, I came to tell you it's your fault!” He was so childish.
“Oh, so it's my fault you can't control your hormones!”
“That's not what I meant!” he barked back at her, almost getting into her face, “I can't fuck anyone else, dammit!”
That surely stopped her. “Wh-what?”
Reluctantly, Inuyasha averted his eyes and sighed. “I don't know why,” he explained smoothly, “but I can't sleep with anyone else, no matter how much I try.”
Countless scenarios where Inuyasha would try to fuck another woman and fail swam through Kagome's mind and she was startled to realise she was both jealous and pleased. But what did that mean? Was she such a good fuck he couldn't forget their one night together? Well, he certainly was a god in bed, but that didn't mean anything.
“Um… and where are you going with this?” she asked shakily.
“I don't know…”
“Umm… okay.” She gulped.
…………
“I can't believe you told us something so intimate!” I exclaim. My mind is still rather slow from processing all this info.
“What can I say?” Kagome replies with a lopsided smirk, “I love to publicly embarrass my husband. Anyway, I told it in such great detail only because he told you about the other time. The first time. This was our agreement.”
“Right,” I whisper, “Oh my God. I still can't believe you told me this!”
She giggles, “Silly.”
Needless to say, Inuyasha's sulking. Noticing this as well, “Honey,” Kagome says in a sugar-coated voice, “wasn't this our agreement?”
“I'm not talking to you,” he huffs, glowering.
Suddenly, the mood changes from playful to… dark. “Oh, you will talk to me, dog boy. Unless…” And she lets the threat hang in the air as Inuyasha stiffens. “Yeah,” he agrees, “that was the agreement.”
“That night… did anything happen afterwards?” I ask curiously. I should have known they wouldn't tell me anything about it. They literally stay silent.
“Okay,” I shift my attention towards Inuyasha, “So what are you so embarrassed about?” I ask, “Is it `cause you went to Kagome's to show her you were hard for her?”
“Damn, fox! Shut up!” For the record, Inuyasha's face is red. Sighing, he says, “how about we tell you about that thing with Sesshomaru?”
“What thing?”
…………
“I am not,” the youkai agent argued, his face expressionless.
“You watched us even though you had no business doing it!” Kagome countered, blushing prettily to match her shirt. To make it clear, they were at Inuyasha's apartment. “How are we supposed to think you are anything else but a pervert?”
“Do not insult me, Higurashi, because I am no pervert,” he warned, narrowing his eyes. Then he smirked impishly. “I was merely curious. I wanted to know how you behaved around each other after that night.”
Yeah. Sesshomaru had known all along. So there they were, cornering the poor guy, even though the full demon was anything but poor, and he had merely wanted to watch them being uncomfortable around each other because of that incident.
“And how convenient,” Sesshomaru added suddenly, still smirking, “to find you both at Inuyasha's apartment. Should I assume you were waiting for me to ask me this stupid question?”
Caught. Damn.
“We were, er... that is…” Inuyasha stammered, but Sesshomaru cut him off. “I have something for you and you will accept, unless you want everyone to share my knowledge.” Both actors had the grace to blush. “Good. It's settled then. You will work together in another movie. This one will be an action movie; you'll be against each other in the beginning, kind of like how you were in real life then get together, kind of like now. So you should do fine.” Inuyasha looked like he was going to protest, but a well placed glare from his brother stopped him. “And I suppose I should inform you about the fact that the forums are raging. People want to know if you're together. They didn't miss the looks you've sent each other at that last interview.”
“We did not send each other looks!” Kagome countered childishly, but even Inuyasha knew to roll his eyes and sigh. “Fine,” she reluctantly agreed, “we did. But it wasn't that obvious anyway!”
“For romance-famished fans it was. You forget, my dear Kagome, that they inspect every detail,” Sesshomaru proudly stated.
“And what do you suggest?” she asked.
“Make your relationship public.”
This time it was Inuyasha who chimed in. “But there is no relationship!”
“Yet,” Kagome all but growled and the other actor cowered in front of the wild woman. “Yes,” Inuyasha admitted, “yet. Sh-should we talk about it?”
“I think I have to go kill someone, or do something that I usually do in my spare time, so I must leave you,” Sesshomaru announced opportunely, taking the cue and closing the door behind him. Yep, things were looking great.
