InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Cold Fire ❯ The three stages ( Chapter 6 )

The three stages

 

 

What the hell just happened? Did we just make love? No! We just had sex, or better yet we fucked. No emotional attachments to that bitch. But damn, she's good. One of the best I've meet in a long time and she's just 17! Inuyasha got up off the floor and looked around. His oversized shirt that she had been wearing lay crumpled in a corner and his clothes were crumpled by the base of the washing machine. Images of what had transpired flashed through his head as he looked at his body fluid on the tile and hers on the washing machine top. He couldn't help it; he smiled. Grabbing his pants alone, he hurriedly pulled them on,

“ I have to clean up this place before Sango comes home.” Reaching for a mop, a bucket, some Lysol, he went to work.

 

Kagome reached home around 6 or maybe later. Collin sat reading in the stables when she rode in. He jumped up frightened.

“ What the hell happened to you? Look at your ankle! Where have you been all day? You know your mother is pissed?” Collin bombarded her with question after question.

“ Collin, shut the hell up. I have raging headache and you're not making it better.”

It was a lie. Her head wasn't hurting, she just didn't feel like explaining to him anything. On the ride over, she was thinking about what just happened. She would have believed it was a dream if her body wasn't tingling still and her spot wasn't still pulsing from the aftermath of a glorious orgasm. She couldn't believe she had done it. She hated the man for god's sake! How easy she fell into his arms. But he started it. It was nothing. I was horny and he was my relief. The scratch to my itch, nothing more. Embedding that lie within herself, she dismounted the horse and stood wobbly on the ground.

“ If you plan to lie to your mother, you need to fix up yourself. You look…bad.” Collins voice was unbiased. However, he was right. Her hair was wild all over her face and hanging from her ponytail, her clothes were crushed and surprisingly clean when she herself was sweaty and dirty. She rode in barefooted with her shoes hung over the horse's back and her left ankle bandaged expertly. She was a sight to behold.

“ Don't worry about me. I have things under control.” She could only hope she was right, in terms of her mother and that strange man she just made love to.

 

Kagome entered the house through the servants' wing. Most of them were in their rooms, retired for the evening until 9 when Kagome's mother would busy herself, but for those who did see her, they threw her suspicious looks. Kagome ignored them and walked up to her room. Slightly relieved at not seeing her mother, she happily opened her door and went in. She was not happy with what she saw,

“ Where have you been, young lady?”

Kagome stared at her mother sitting comfortably on her bed. Her face was cold,

“ Why are you in my room?” Kagome walked past her to her bathroom and began stripping to go to the shower. She noticed her mother trailing behind her and standing at the door, “ Move! I'm going to bathe.”

“ Not until you tell me where you were.”

“ I'm sure you badgered the servants into telling you already, Collin looks scared.”

“ How dare you leave the house without my permission!”

“ Puh-lease! Like you care! I've been gone the whole day and I'm sure you didn't notice until supper!”

“ Your father did not grow you like this! What would he say?”

Kagome froze at that stingy insult. She dropped the shirt she held in her hand and spun on her heel to face her mother,

“ Don't tell me shit bout my father. I would know what he thought if he were here today, but you had to kill him!”

“ Excuse me?!”

“ Bitch you heard me! You killed him! If he wasn't going to see you and your son in the hospital, he would still be here!”

“ I had nothing—“

“ Get out of my room!!!”

“ Now you will listen to me. You have gotten---“

“ I SAID GET OUT!!!”

“ Kagome!” Her mother's voice was pleading but demanding.

Kagome picked up the bottle of hand soap off the counter top. She effortlessly sailed it at her mother who dodged by a second. It shattered on the wall beside her with a dull sound, the soap leaked to the floor from the wall,

“ YOU KILLED HIM!!!”

She threw the glass cup that went with her toothbrush at her. She dodged this missile too. It flew through the bathroom door and shattered somewhere inside her room.

“ Kagome!”

“ YOU KILLED HIM!!”

She picked up the bottle of Listerine and threw it. This time, it hit its mark. Mrs. Higurashi's head flew back on impact. When her head reeled back to its former position, a tiny trickle of blood slowly crawled down her face. Kagome smiled, “Get out.” The woman threw her a jaundiced look. The tension in the room was palpable. She turned and ran out of the room.

 

`Mommy, where is daddy? How comes you came home from the hospital and he hasn't?'

`Be quiet Kagome, you might wake your brother.'

She sat contently nursing the tiny pink bundle that her mother called her brother.

`But why wont daddy come home? He doesn't love me?'

`He's never coming home Kagome! He's dead! Gone! No shush before you wake him.'

`Dead? No, daddy wouldn't do that to me. You're lying, big fat meanie!'

`Cry all you want, its not going to bring him back.'

Kagome ran from the nursery.

 

Inuyasha climbed up to his room. He wanted to do the rest of the laundry since he was already in the cleaning mood. He swung open the door and nearly choked. “ Bitch trashed my room!”

How he didn't notice before is far beyond him. Clothes were strewed across the bed from his opened closet, his shoes were all about including on the bed. Books from the shelf were flung about with loose paper lying haphazardly on the floor. Soot from the fireplace had been smudged all over the wall and his mattress lay lopsided off the bed's frame. “ That bitch!” The only thing that was still in order was the rocking chair and the stool she had been in when she fell asleep. Inuyasha stomped his foot and cursed under his breath. Picking up the nearest book at his foot, he made up his mind to pay her a visit later that night.

After he had straighten his room, cleaned the walls and done the laundry, Inuyasha collapsed in his bed. He was exhausted from cleaning and from prior activities. He smiled in remembrance of what he had done. He had begun to drift off when he heard a loud clear voice ring out his name. Sango. He stood up and went to greet his little sister.

When Inuyasha said little, he meant by a few minutes, but he never made her forget it. She stood by the front door and stared at him for a minute before she kicked off her shoes,

“ My boss is such a pain! Would you believe she gave Anderson the raise I have been pestering her about?”

Inuyasha walked into the kitchen where she followed suit,

“ Actually I can.”

Sango sat down on one of the bar stools that surrounded the island in their kitchen. She watched Inuyasha pull out a packet of frozen chicken from the fridge.

“ What? You understand? Well, please. Enlighten me.”

“ Simple, you have boobs, Anderson doesn't.”

Sango was 5 minutes younger than Inuyasha. They were fraternal twins. They had very few similarities, especially not their personalities. While Inuyasha has silvery hair that had layers and full of bounce, She had very straight jet-black hair. It too was full but laid in a single layer. Her chocolate brown eyes dulled in comparison to her brother's liquid amber eyes. Sango had very defined facial feature, strong jaw set and high cheekbones. They were both beautiful in their own rights. She looked like their mother, while he looked like their father. Talents and skills went further apart. Inuyasha was a natural in the kitchen, Sango couldn't make ice. Sango had a short fuse, and put up with nothing, Inuyasha had patience. Inuyasha thought he sister was harsh with people and could develop people skills, Sango considered her brother too soft and often told him to man up.

“ So let me get this straight. If I were a guy, then she would have given me the raise?” She took an apple from the bowl on the counter and bit into it.

“ Well, yes. That's just the laws of the workplace.”

“ They're probably screwing.”

“ Probably.”

Sango studied the apple as she spoke,

“ I tell you. I really am going to quit!”

“ Yeah right. You wouldn't after it took you so long to get into it.”

“ Eh, geology isn't as exiting as I thought it would be.”

“ And it took you 22 years to find this out?”

She bit into the apple again. “ I think I'm going to try be a pilot.”

“ If you think your job now is sexist, then you're not going to like flying.”

“ True thing! I barely see any women pilot. All the women are stewardess. I can't do that. Maybe I should join the army.”

Inuyasha chopped off the head of a carrot,

“ Don't even joke that way.”

Sango giggled a bit before throwing the apple core in the bin. Sango then lifted her nose in the air and sniffed.

“ I smell roast beef. I don't believe you! You made roast beef and didn't leave any for me!”

“ No I didn't!”

“ I'm not dumb Yashi! I love roast beef and I could smell it a mile away. Now where is it?”

Inuyasha mentally kicked himself for not washing up the plate he had given Kagome the food in. He watched Sango as she weaved her way around the large kitchen until she reached the sink. “ Busted!” She ran to him and pried open his mouth, looking for any remnants. Inuyasha tried to shove her away but being a geologist and working with rocks, she was bound to have some sort of strength. A struggle ensued until Inuyasha dropped the chicken leg he was handling and poked her in her side, her one weakness. She jumped and the touch and stepped back giggling. He picked up the chicken leg and held it at her like a sword,

“ Back off!” He smiled as she held her sides to protect and she narrowed her eyes at him. Looking around for a weapon, her giggles died down. Finding nothing to use as a weapon, she threw up her hands in defeat.

“ Ok, you win! But if you didn't eat roast beef, then who did?”

“No one important.” He went back to seasoning the parts on the cutting board in front of him.

“ Ooooh, sounds juicy! Spill Yashi. Girl or guy?” Sango sat back on the stool again. Inuyasha looked down at the chicken. He really wasn't sure if he wanted to talk about Kagome.

“ It was just this stupid girl that fell of her horse in the woods and busted her ankle. I bandaged it for her and gave her some food.”

“ Horse? Who the hell still rides horses in this day and age?”

“ She does. It's the girl who moved into the mansion down the road, the one that was under construction for the past 5 years.”

“ A girl lives there?”

“ Well she and her mother and her brother. And get this, it's just their summer house.”

“ Christ! You serious? Where does she live?”

“ She's from Japan. Like our parents.”

“ She's loaded! Have you seen the house up close?”

“ Yeah, she's the heir of some video gamming company.”

“ Video games? How old is she?

“ Don't bother, she's a spoilt rich brat. She annoyed me the whole hour she was here.”

“ Not surprising. People like that are usually spoilt.”

Sango stood up and stretched. “ I'm going to bathe. And I'm hungry so chop chop.”

“ Shut up, Sango.”

She smiled as she danced clumsily out of the kitchen. Inuyasha felt a pang. Was it guilt from lying to his sister about Kagome or was it from making Kagome look like the wicked witch of the west? He shook off the feeling and returned to the chicken.

 

Kagome sat by her computer writing up a blog. It was her way of venting, well apart from throwing things. The incident in the bathroom was far from over, she had injured her mother and she knew that meant a world of argument was heading her way. She had just opened a can of worms. Dinner that night was a quiet affair. She barely paid any attention to her mother who was still fuming from the incident earlier. She had a beige band-aid on her temple where she had gotten hit. The sight had created a wide grin on her face when her mother had come down to dinner. The sadistic side of her wanted to throw more things at her to create more bleeding but instead she laughed to herself. She actually felt bad for Sota who tried to make conversation with both of them but to no avail. She ate her dinner and fled to the sanctity of her room before her mother could stop her. She had survived through dinner. After she wrote her blog, she emailed her friends in Japan and logged off. She was watching t.v when she heard a tap on her window. Who could that be at… She glanced at her clock on the wall. …minutes to 10? And what do they want from me? I don't know anybody here? She cautiously went to her window and looked out. She could make out a faint silhouette of a person on the ground. They made a motion for her to come down. Maybe it's Collin. She and the ranch hand had become great friends. He often told her of what her mother was up to, and he knew because his mother was her handmaid. She smiled and made a `hold on' gesture before she crept back through her door. Using the servants' wing, she crept out the back door and went around to her window. She tiptoed and spoke in a hushed tone,

“ Collin? What's the matter?”

There was no response. She walked closer to the large oak tree that hung out her window and looked up at her own bedroom. She looked around once more. “Collin?” Still no response. She sighed and thought he might have walked away thinking she was someone else when she felt a large hand wrap itself around her waist and another clamped over her mouth. The powerful arms pulled her savagely behind the large tee and wrestled her to the ground. She opened her eyes and as they came into to focus, she saw Inuyasha crouched over her, her body cradled between his knees. She motioned for her to be quiet before he let her go. Kagome glared up at him and shouted in a quiet voice,

“Why are you here?! Go away!”

Inuyasha stood up over her and looked down at her,

“ You trashed my room!”

Kagome's face froze before she began to laugh. “ You seriously came all this way to say that? You stupid or what? Look how long that was! You retarded? It's the middle of the night and you accost me in the dark because of your room?! Fucking nut case.”

“ I'm dead serious Kagome! Why did you do it?”

“ You were pissing me off! Who the hell are you to lock me in your room. I'll tell you, you're no one! Now let me up. I'm missing American idol.”

Inuyasha viciously pulled her up. “ It took me nearly an hour to clean the soot of the walls!”

“ And it took me nearly 15 minutes to wipe it from my hands to your clothes! Now move.”

“ Do I look like one of your servants to order around?”

“ You might as well be. Even though you're too stubborn to be a servant, you'da gotten fired long time ago!” She began to move around him but he stepped in front of her to cut her off.

“ Does you're mother know your meeting guys named Collin in the middle of the night?”

“ Shut up! You don't know shit!”

“ So whose Collin?”

Kagome made an exaggerated sigh, “ Inuyasha, its late. You should be pooped from cleaning up after me. Go home and get some sleep. You can harass me in the morning, I promise.”

He laughed a deep laugh. It actually sent shivers down Kagome's spine,

“ Are you worried about me? You weren't worried when I had to clean up after you. You weren't worried when I had to lie to my sister why the washroom smelled piney fresh and why the scent of roast beef was wavering in the kitchen.”

“ That is totally unfair! You started all that! You brought it upon yourself! I never told you to make roast beef for me and you were the one who grabbed me in the washroom!”

“ You were striping in front of me!”

“ You had seen me naked before, how was I supposed to know it bothered you?” Inuyasha made no reply. Kagome searched his face with her eyebrows knitted in concentration. She suddenly broke into a wide grin, “ Oh, I get it! You came to see me because you want me! You're mad because I called out for Collin! You don't care about you're room, you just needed an excuse to see me!”

Inuyasha immediately grabbed his belly and doubled over in laughter. Kagome had to cover his mouth else he might wake someone. When he had finished laughing, he looked at her with his watery amber eyes.

“ You give yourself too much credit. I just want to know why you trashed my room! Who's the stupid one now?”

Kagome looked at him deathly before folding her hands and turning on her heels. Inuyasha could see he silhouette through her thin silk nightgown. He could also see she wore no undergarments. His pants grew tight. Her hair was let out to flow freely over back and it danced idly in the gentle night breeze. The nightgown had a deep cut in the front and the back, exposing her milky skin. Laughing he walked up behind her. “ Alright! Where are you going now?”

“ To my bed Inuyasha! I suggest you leave now before I alert the guards.”

“ You have guards?”

“ With big dogs and guns.”

“ Come on Kagome. I was kiddin!”

“ Leave!”

Inuyasha grabbed her from behind and pulled her into him. She could feel his aroused cock pressed against her ass. He kissed her neck slowly and languorous.

“ You were awesome this afternoon. I don't think I had my fill of you.” His voice was husky. He kissed her neck once more and made his way to her lips were he kissed her long and deep. She responded to him immediately. Inuyasha knew he had her right where he wanted her. He let her go and gave her one final kiss. “ Goodnight Kagome.” He ran off into the darkness leaving her shocked and stunned. He looked like a thief stealing away into the night.
