InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Changes 'Till The End ❯ Chapter 7 ( Chapter 7 )

Chapter 7: Homes

A week had now passed since Naraku had come to fight with them. Inuyasha was sitting alone in his tree, thinking of what could happen if the evil hanyou decided to come again. He knew that it would have to be their last battle, and hopefully they would come out the winners.

Kagome had gone back to her time and had stayed there for the past three days. He no longer had to worry if she didn't come back; the hanyou knew she was his, and would always come back. He sighed; things were always so boring with out Kagome.

"Inuyasha, come down here." Cried Shippou from the ground. Inuyasha looked down to the kit, before deciding to lean back against the tree. "I'll tell Kagome about that time you went through her bag and found her." He was cut off when Inuyasha jumped right in front of him, giving him a glare.

"What do you want runt?" he asked.

Shippou didn't really know how to get this out, but he had to push the older hanyou in the right direction. Though he was young, he was anything but stupid. "You should build Kagome a house here."

"Why does she need a house, we're always moving." He stated, staring down at him.

"You can't stay with Kaede forever Inuyasha." Whined Shippou. He didn't know why the hanyou didn't catch on with his idea. He knew Miroku was planning on building Sango a house in the village, so Inuyasha should too.

"Fine. You're going to help if you want to stay there." He said gruffly. Inuyasha got up and headed back to the village to see if he could find a plot of land that would suit his liking. He hated to emit it, but the kit had grown on him, and he knew Shippou looked at Kagome as his foster mother.

Shippou bounded excitedly behind him, willing to do everything he could to help Inuyasha build their house. "If we start soon we could surprise Kagome!" he cried happily.

Inuyasha smiled down to the kit, he had the same idea in mind. 'Maybe one day Shippou could look at me as his farther.' He thought.

The two came to a tall tree that had a perfect view of the village, so picking up Shippou; he bounded high into the tree. Sure enough, he could see the whole village. He scanned it over, looking for a place where they could be relatively alone most of the time.

"Look, over there on the west side of the village." Inuyasha pointed out. Shippou looked to where Inuyasha had pointed and nodded his head in agreement. If the house was built there they would be close to a hot spring and a tiny river. The house would also be the only one in the area, only needing a few minute walk to get to the rest of the village.

"Let's get to work. She said she'd be back in two days."

-

Kagome was back in her time, sitting on her bed. She had been thinking for the past hour on how she could tell her mother that she was planning on staying in the past until Naraku was defeated.

"Kagome, dinner's ready." Said the mother in question, peeking in on her daughter though the open door.

The girl looked up, and motioned for her mother to step inside. 'Now or never.'

"Mama, I want to stay in the past until the jewel is complete. It shouldn't take much longer, maybe a month at the most." She silently cringed when her mother sat down beside her.

"Of course Kagome. You can go." She said smiling. Letting her daughter stay in the past for long periods of time had changed her. She no longer depended on modern things, and she had grown more mature. Ancient Japan had made her daughter into a woman in two years.

Kagome hugged her mother tightly. She wouldn't tell her now that she had become Inuyasha's mate. She would wait until she returned with the complete jewel. No need to find out if her mother approved either.

"Let's go eat." Kagome got up behind her mother, feeling that she had the most wonderful family, half in the present and half in the past.

-

"Shippou, it's almost dark, we'll end for the day." Said Inuyasha, admiring the frame he and Shippou had managed to build in a few hours. He had decided to make the house resemble Kagome's a bit. It had three rooms on the first floor, and two on the top. It had been hard work, but the house so far was solid.

The kit bounded onto the hanyou's shoulder for the short trip back to Kaede's hut where they would spend the night. He was tired, he had never worked so hard in his life, but he was happy. He had a home.

Inuyasha sped his way until he reached Kaede's hut and opened the door, his nose was assaulted with the delicious aroma of stew. Kaede may have been old, but he would never pass up her cooking.

Sango and Miroku were already seated around a low table, talking while eating their meal. Kaede had left them the hot stew before leaving to go check on a woman who had said that she didn't feel well.

"Where were you for the past few hours Inuyasha?" asked Miroku. He and Sango had been busy deciding where to build their home, never agreeing on one spot, until they both eyed a vacant plot on the east side of the village. The land was already cleared and there was a small stream close by. Miroku had claimed the land on the spot.

"I'm building a house for Kagome." He was hungry, so he slurped his stew greedily and loudly, earning him a few disgusted looks from Sango and Shippou.

"Where'd you build it?" asked Sango. She would like to know where her best friend's home was. Kagome had talked to her before she left about how she was planning to tell her mother about her decision to stay with Inuyasha until the jewel was complete.

"To the west, a few minute's walking from the rest of the village." He stated, dipping his bowl into the large pot for more stew.

"I helped." Piped Shippou, not wanting to be left from the conversation.

Sango smiled at him, pleased that Inuyasha didn't disregard him. "When do you think you'll be done Inuyasha." She asked.

"If I work all day tomorrow, I should be done, than the next day I'd have to find some things to put inside."

Miroku looked up from his stew at the hanyou. "If it's not too much trouble could you assist us in with the building of our home?" he asked, not knowing what his answer would be.

"What'll you give me?" he asked, the corners of his mouth slightly twitching in a grin.

"Haven't we helped you get all of those jewel shards for the past year or so?"

Inuyasha drank from his bowl before answering. "Fine, I'll get you the wood and help with the frame, but only because Kagome would ask me to do it." He stated.

Sango smiled, happy that she wouldn't have to wait a month before her house could be completed. Having demons as friends did come in handy some times.

-

A day later Inuyasha and Shippou had finished their home. It was made from big, thick wooden boards. The house was very sturdy and seemed larger inside. The hanyou was pleased with his work. Now all he needed to do was find a futon, and after that both he and Kagome could decide what to add.

"Kagome'll be happy." Said Shippou, coming outside of the house to stand besides Inuyasha. He nodded. Kagome was sure to be pleased with the home he had built for her. Now they had a place to live in after the jewel was complete.

"Let's go and get the wood for Miroku." He stated, before moving on to find the monk. He stopped in Kaede's hut before getting to Miroku, he had a request.

"Could I take the futon from the room me and Kagome have here?" he asked.

Kaede smiled, nodding. "Take that small table as well." She added. Inuyasha thanked her, it was almost too soft to hear, but she did. He moved to their room and grabbed their futon first, and then told Shippou to take the small table.

A few minutes later they had returned to find Miroku sitting at the spot where he wanted to build his home.

"Let's begin then."

-

The next day, as promised, Kagome had come back. Inuyasha had smelled her scent- having the beginning traces of her heat, and ran to the well. All she saw was a red blur before she was in his arms. She smiled at his affection.

"It's nearly nightfall." He stated.

She blushed, knowing that she had promised to come back during the late morning, but she wanted to tie up some loose ends and work on a lie that would keep her covered for the next month she would be staying in the past with Inuyasha.

"I had to tie a few ends, I decided to stay here until the jewel's completed." He smiled down to her before giving her a quick kiss.

He took her hand. "I have something to show you." Inuyasha picked the girl up in his arms and made his way quickly to their home. He had already told Shippou that he would sleep at Kaede's that night. Inuyasha wanted to be alone with Kagome.

Kagome's eyes got wider as the house came into view. It was fairly large and had a few windows. She smiled up to Inuyasha as he set her down in front of the house. "I made it for you." He said, taking her smaller hand in his.

She didn't know what to say, he had built her a home, for them, for their future children. It was a silent promise that they would stay together for a very long time. "I love it." She whispered.

He opened the door and pulled her in behind him. Inuyasha took her directly to their bedroom that he decided would be the medium sized room on the first floor. He gently laid her down on the futon.

"You're getting into heat." He said, his eyes now burning with lust. The girl nodded. She also remembered her promise to 'try again'.

He moved his body to lay on top of her, his lips hovering over hers. "Let's try now." He said before he gave her a long, lingering kiss, telling her of how much he had missed her company.

Not wanting to wait, he quickly slipped off his red haroi and took off her shirt and green skirt, leaving her only panty-clad. Where was that piece of cloth that covered her chest? Her eyes met his.

"I didn't wear one this time, I wanted to be ready." She said, smiling up into his face. He brought his mouth on hers again, slowly kneading her breasts, bringing her nipples to attention. He took his mouth off hers to trail small kisses down her jaw line to her neck, slowly tracing his mark on her shoulder.

He let his hand trail down to the heat between her legs, slowly rubbing the small nub through the material. Kagome arched up into his touch, wanting to feel more of it. "Inuyasha." She pleaded.

"Inuyasha what?" the hanyou teased. He moved his hand a little faster, slipping the garment down her legs to leave her naked, like him. Inuyasha slipped one finger inside of her, noting that she was ready for him. He slowly stroked her with his finger, looking at the expression on her face.

"I.I need you." She whispered, and with that he pulled his finger out and flipped Kagome on her stomach, raising her hips in the air to meet him. He smiled, always wanted to test out the position most dog demons used to mate. He inserted his hard erection in her opening, noticing how much tighter she felt from behind.

He let out a slow moan as he entered her completely, this time meeting no resistance. This time he didn't need to worry about going very easy on his mate, she knew of his needs and was ready to help him with them.

He began at a brisk pace, moving in and out of her easily. He heard her moan out what could have been his name, raising her hips higher for him as she felt her orgasm build in what felt like the pit of her stomach.

Inuyasha pumped into her harder, drawing both of them closer to their peaks.

"Inuyasha." She whispered, her hands grasping tightly at the covers underneath her, the girl's knuckles becoming white.

He thrust into her a few more times until he buried himself to the hilt, grasping the girl around her waist to push her against him. That's where he let himself go inside of her, feeling her explode as well.

Before falling on top of her, he fell to the side, pulling out of her. She sighed and collapsed on her side, putting her right arm across his chest. The two were still breathing hard from their activity.

He drew her closer to him before shifting himself to pick up the blanket he threw on the floor. He covered them, Kagome laying her head on his chest. Inuyasha gently kissed her forehead before nodding off into sleep, the girl following her mate. Things were just about perfect, but how long could that last?"

I know that I/K and S/M are getting busy in this fic, but it fits well into the plot, right? This chapter took me a while to write, but I think it was worth it. I again fixed some misspellings and changed some mistakes I made.
