InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Cold Fire ❯ Truce? ( Chapter 8 )

Truce?

 

 

 

“It feels so good to get this gunk off me!” Kagome lamented in the shower. Inuyasha sat down on the toilet while she bathed, just to talk. She had taken directions from Inuyasha to get to his house and had raced upstairs as soon as she could to go bathe. “ How about you make yourself useful and go make food for me to eat. I'm still hungry because somebody threw my breakfast on me.”

“ Its lunch time now anyways. We can order in.”

“ Order what?” She mumbled from under the shower. Her voice came in gurgles.

“ I dunno, pizza.”

“ Ech! American food.”

“ No, Italian.”

“Whatever.”

Through the translucent glass of the shower, Inuyasha could see her body outline. All the curves and contours of her body where being teased at him by the silhouette of the glass. Her movements were fluid and well coordinated. She looked like a ballet dancer under water. Simply delicious. Her soiled clothes were on the floor and they looked terrible. Inuyasha grunted uncomfortably. Seeing her bathe was screwing up his head. He picked up her dirty clothes.

“ Where are you going?” Her head popped from behind the protective barrier. He water logged hair splayed across her chest and face. Small rivulets of water ran over her skin, making Inuyasha more uncomfortable.

“ I'm going to put these in the wash,” he held up her soiled clothes, “ and order lunch.”

“ What kinda pizza?”

“ What do you want?”

“ Nothing with chicken, beef of any sort, pineapples or olives. I like anything pork and I love green peppers and mushrooms.”

Inuyasha stared at peculiarly.

“ I'm going to order two separate pizzas.”

Kagome's light laughter trailed him out of the steamy bathroom into the hallway. He sighed relieved. He was being turned on every second he was in there with her. He looked down at the tell tale bulge in his pants. Ignoring it, he headed down the stairs to the washroom.

Kagome sighed heavily in the shower. She was hoping he would have tried something with her because bathing with him there was a turn on for her. However, all he did was sit on the toilet and chat. She took up the shampoo and smelled it. Cherry. She poured a generous amount into her palm before working up a lather in her hair. She remembered a shampoo commercial she had to do in Japan and how dumb she felt talking to the camera. The shampoo was worthless in quality anyways. Ah, my adoring public, they make me sick.

She began to wash out her hair and finish up her showering routine. Turing off the taps, she opened the door and reached for the fresh towel Inuyasha had brought her. After drying her hair and wrapping her body in the towel she headed downstairs.

She found Inuyasha sitting philosophically in the large armchair in his living room.

“ How comes you never came back to keep my company?”

He looked up at her surprised. Her hair was caught up in a wet messy bun with loose strands plastered down her back and face. The towel wrapped form fittingly around her body, hugging her every curve. Inuyasha muttered a silent obscenity.

“ I wanted to wait for the pizza.” Kagome slunk down into the couch and put up her feet on the large center table.

“ What am I going to wear until my clothes are washed and dried?”

Inuyasha stood. He had changed his clothes to a casual dress pants and a pastel blue shirt.

“ I'm sure my sisters clothes can fit you and she won't mind. Come on. Lets go raid her room.”

Kagome followed behind him as he headed for the stairs. “ When will I meet your sister?”

“ Beats me.” Inuyasha hoped never. Knowing his sister and from the description her had given her of Kagome, she would call him out and embarrass him. And Kagome would definitely get pissed. He hoped to avoid all that. They reached the top landing and went down the hall to the room. Entering Kagome looked around again. Her first visit had been a haze and now was her chance to really look around. The canopy bed was the same, the posters of boy bands were the same. All the furniture matched, including the large wardrobe. Kagome liked the color of the walls, a creamy mint green. Inuyasha strode over to the wardrobe and opened it. He hurriedly threw her a jeans and a sleeveless blouse.

“ I guess you should leave when I'm putting on my clothes. You seem to have a problem with my naked body.” She reported making reference to the washroom incident with a seductive smile.

“ Don't worry about that, I have been practicing self restraint.”

“ Is that so?” She plucked the pins out of her hair and let it cascade down her back. She shook her head to enhance the effect and also to make the hair looked tousled. Smiling deviously, she slowly unhitched the tucked part of the towel and opened it open a crack. As expected, Inuyasha reacted to this. His breath sounded like it stopped short in his chest. Giggling, she let the towel go and watched Inuyasha's eyes as they followed the towel to pool at the floor. Not missing a beat, his eyes darted back to her exposed body. Erotically, she began to glide her hands up and down her thighs and shaking her hips to the non-existent music. She rubbed her arms as goose bumps covered them. She shivered either from the temperature or from the look Inuyasha was giving her. Most likely the later because it was a beautiful sunny day. In one fluid step, Inuyasha was in front of her. He enveloped her in his arms and tilted her head back. He immediately went for the sensitive skin at the base of her throat. She moaned as her nipped it gently. She dug her hands into his hair—she was developing a fetish for her hair. He ushered his hands down the delicate slopes of her back and the rise of her ass. He cupped her ass and brought her closer to his raging erection. She briefly laughed before he cut her off with a possessive kiss. Kagome threw her arms around his waist. She would have thrown it around his neck if they weren't pinned to her side. She kissed him as forcefully as he was with her. She rose up on her tiptoes to get as much of his as she could. Man, was she loving this!

“ God Inuyasha! In my room?!”

Kagome, frightened by the alien voice, drew back from Inuyasha and cowered behind him. It was one thing for him to see her naked but not the world.

“ Christ, Sango! Why are you home so early?”

Sango walked nonchalantly over to her bed and sat down. She bit off a piece of pizza she held in her hand.

“ I decided to take the day off. I can do that you know. By the way, you owe me $21. 25 for the pizza.”

Inuyasha held Kagome still behind him. “ Umm, Sango. Could you excuse us for a minute, and she's borrowing some of you're clothes.”

“ Whatever.” She rose. “ Just hope ya'll didn't do anything on my bed.”

She bit into the pizza again and chewed. “ 5 minutes, then I want my room back.” She walked out of the room more interested in the pizza than she was in Her brother and his mystery woman.

 

 

 

Kagome collapsed on the floor. “ What the fuck was that? You can lock your door at work, your room door, even the bathroom door but you couldn't lock this door?” He turned to her.

“ I didn't expect you to strip tease in front of me! Now get dressed!”

Kagome stood up and reached for the clothes on the bed that Inuyasha had picked out for her. After she was fully dressed, she stepped up to him. He had his back turned to her but she slipped her hands around his waist,

“ We can finish later. I want you.”

Inuyasha, shocked at her bluntness, laughed timidly. “ You fought me off at my office and now you want to jump into my arms?”

“ What can I say, I'm moody.”

He twisted in her arms and planted a kiss on her plump lips. Then, right on cue, he let her go as his sister walked in.

“ Ya'll done?”

Kagome looked at the girl who sauntered into the room. She was around her height with straight pitch-black hair. Her eyes were large but shaped eloquently. She had a neat figure with a mischievous look. Kagome instantly liked her.

“ Sorry for… you know.”

“ Its cool. So are you the flavor of the month?”

Kagome frowned. Inuyasha stepped in,

“ This is Kagome. She lives in the mansion down the road.”

“ You're the prissy pussy my brother was talking about?” She looked at Kagome then to her brother. “ You said she was an annoying brat. I thought she was like 12 or something. But here you are fooling around with the brat.”

“ Brat?” She turned to Inuyasha, “ I moved from prissy pussy to the brat?”

Inuyasha threw up his hands in defense. “ I swear, I said that before I got to know you, properly.”

She blushed. Sango gasped,

“ You guys really screwing?!”

“ No!” Kagome answered hotly. Inuyasha smiled to his sister,

“ Yeah we are.”

Sango clapped her hands together. “ Good for you. You don't look like the bitch my brother made you out to be.”

“ That's because I'm not.”

Sango smiled. Inuyasha didn't like where this was heading.

“ So how old are you Kagome?”

“ I'm 18 the end of summer.”

She turned back to Inuyasha, “ And she's young too!” Sango kicked up her heels childishly and giggled. Inuyasha strode over to the bed and took up a pillow. He placed it over her head to muffle her giggling. She promptly tried to kick him in his nuts,

“ Hey, watch it. I have to use those in the future. You want nieces and nephews don't you?”

“ Especially from her. She's pretty.”

Kagome's eyes widened. “ Oh not me, I don't like kids.”

The siblings stopped and threw her a look. Inuyasha's look was one of sheer disappointment and Sango's was one of humor. Kagome began to feel uncomfortable under the stares. “ The pizza is getting cold and I'm fucking hungry, so imma eat now.” She turned to walk out of the room.

“ Whoa. Language.” Sango said.

“ I forgot to mention she has a sailors mouth.”

“ She's cute.”

“ Yeah, too cute.”

Sang sat up in the bed, “ What you mean too cute.”

“ She has something over me. You know like how when I sleep with a girl, that's it? I can't seem to get enough of her.”

“ Ooooh, you must really like her!”

“ Like her, I can barely stomach her. She came into my restaurant this morning and began cussing. I pull her into my office and she fights me there! You should see my office now.” He huffed and folded his arms.

“ Oh, you more than like her. You falling for her!”

“ Sango, you have said some stupid things in your life, but this is the stupidest by far.”

“ If you can't stomach her, how comes you screw her so quickly and I come in on you guys making out with her naked. If that's how you despise someone, then I'd love to see you love someone.”

He threw the pillow at her making sure it hit her in her head,

“ I love you.” He confirmed.

 

 

 

Kagome sat eating a large slice of a cheesy pizza with ham, sausage, and green peppers on it. She had discovered the TV and was now captured by it as Inuyasha and Sango descended the stairs. She chewed disgustingly.

“ So tell me about yourself Kagome.” Sango plopped down beside her and grabbed a slice of the pizza. They looked so comfy together.

“ Kagome Higurashi. 17. Single. Not a virgin. No friends. Home school. Rich. That about sums me up.”

“ Ummm, wow?”

Sango was a bit surprised at her bluntness. It was the first time she'd known anyone to be more blunt than she was. She smiled. “ So I take it that's your Benz parked out front and not Yashi's. For a moment, I thought he had it redone.”

“ Yashi?”

“ My pet name for him.”

“Cute. Well that is my car out front. I drove him home from work because… I had spilled shit on my clothes.”

“ So I hear. You guys had a fight.”

“ Is there nothing you keep from you're sister?” She asked him annoyed.

“ Nope, she's like me in girl form. After all, she's only 7 minutes younger than me.” Inuyasha said from across the living room chewing on his minced beef pizza.

“ Hold up. Ya'll are twins?! Oh shit!!” She jumped up and looked surprised at Inuyasha. “ When you said younger sister, I thought you meant in years! This is mad cool!” Smiling ear to ear, she reclaimed her seat. This was awesome. A chick version of Inuyasha! Kagome smiled some more as she got comfy with the family.

 

 

Kagome stood up and stretched. The end credits were rolling on the large screen t.v and the music boomed over the surround sound. They had just watched a movie. She looked at the clock on the wall. It was after 5, suppertime.

“ I should go now.” She looked down on herself. “ Can I have back my clothes?” She asked stupidly. Sango jumped up.

“ I'll get them for you.” She sped off to the washroom before either Kagome or Inuyasha could object. Kagome shrugged at Inuyasha's silent question. She trudged into the washroom behind Sango and began removing the blouse she had on.

“ Well, what is it?” Sango was perched on top of the Dryer. Kagome stared at her disbelievingly. She liked this girl but she was way too blunt. Was she like that?

“ What do you mean?”

“ Puh-lease! During the whole movie, you kept looking at Inuyasha and he kept fidgeting to not look at you.”

Kagome smiled. “ Sango, are you a virgin?”

She blushed and hesitated. Oh, so this fortress of straightforwardness has some amount of restriction and self-preservation! “ No I'm not.”

“ How long have you been fucking?”

“ Ummm, from around 16 years old.”

“ And when's the last time you got some?”

“ I dunno. About a year and a half now.”

Kagome snickered. Since she had started having sex at the tender age of 14, she had never taken such a long hiatus.

“ Well you should know how it is to be horny, right?”

“ Yeah I do.”

“ It's not nice is it?”

“ Hell no.”

“ Well that's is the only thing going on out there. He wants to fuck me and I want to fuck him. You just set the atmosphere with the movie.” Did you just say you want to fuck him?! You are loosing it Kagome! He wants to fuck you, but you will fuck anyone for relief. Not just him…. Ok, maybe that sounds bad. But there is nothing special about him. Sango shattered her thoughts.

“ I don't know bout you but it seems a lot more than that to me, and to him too. If it just a booty call, then you damn special.”

“ I'm more than just a booty call!” She responded with enthusiasm. She snapped her mouth shut as Sango grinned as she hopped off the machine top and bent to take out her clothes. Kagome felt stupid for lashing out on Sango for calling her a booty call but if there was no attachment then why should she care…?

“ I like you Kagome. You're ok. Can't see why anyone would label you as a bitch. Or an Ice queen.”

Kagome pulled off the blouse and reached for her bra. She didn't care that Sango was there, she felt comfortable around her.

“ Where'd you hear that? From Inuyasha?”

“ No. We have some Japanese newspapers and Tabloids delivered to us monthly. I occasionally read the entertainment section. But you did look like a bitch in those pictures, the American air changed you.”

“ I don't know. Maybe it's because of the freedom I'm getting. No one out here really knows me and I get to get away from my mother so I'm more relaxed. And plus, Inuyasha helped me relieve my fuckastration.”

“ Fuckastration?”

“ Sexual tension. But I'm no bitch. I'm just human.” She pulled on her blouse over her bra and fitted herself properly. She pulled down the pants and stood clad in her panties as Sango handed her her jeans.

“ Inuyasha did call you a spoilt bitch though so I did believe him at first—“

“ He spooked my horse, nearly made me drown, stripped me naked then teased me about it! How was I supposed to act?!” She attacked her. Sango laughed eagerly.

“ He said it was all an accident but you made a big deal out of him rescuing you.” She laughed again. “ Ya'll ended up screwing anyways.” She watched her pull up her pants and fasten the button. “ How's you're ankle anyways?”

“ My maid at home looked at it for me. She said it was just sore from a bad landing. She gave me some mumbo jumbo cream to put on it that made it better. Its actually fine right now.”

Kagome smoothed out her hair and grinned experimentally. Sango jumped off the Dryer top and headed back to the living room. Kagome trailed behind her. Inuyasha had turned off the television and was putting on his shoes.

“ Kagome, you have to drive me back to the restaurant first. I still have some paper work to do and my car is there.”

“ You can take my car.” Sango offered.

“ And who would drive it back?” He turned back to Kagome, “ You ready?”

She nodded and blushed as she remembered the mess they had made in the office. She silently prayed that someone had cleaned it up. He headed to the large wood and glass doors that led to the outside and stood up waiting for Kagome to follow. Sango waved at her,

“ See you later Kagome. Might visit you one day at home.”

“ Can't promise I'll be there. Later.” She grabbed her boots from off the floor near the door and walked out with them in her hands. Outside in the cool afternoon breeze, Inuyasha watched her fidget with her boots,

“ Maybe I should drive.”

She easily threw the keys at him and jumped into the passenger seat when he opened the door. She relaxed as Inuyasha started the car and drove off.

“ I take it you like my sister?”

“ She's nice. I like her boldness. She told me what she really thought.”

“ She's too fresh if you ask me. Thought about what?”

Kagome zipped up her boot and looked at him.

“ Stuff.”

“ Stuff like what?”

“ Stuff.” She repeated. Inuyasha did something between a laugh and sigh,

“ She's going to tell me anyways if I ask her. We're close like that.”

“ Then don't ask. “ She retorted stubbornly. Inuyasha sighed again.

“ You're impossible.”

“ If it's so important to you, all she asked was if I was just a booty call or more.”

“ And what did you say.”

“ I said I wasn't a booty call.” Silence. “ Am I am booty call?”

“ You sound like you care. I thought you did give a damned about anything.”

“ I don't care! I just want to be informed.” He laughed a little.

“ You're not a booty call.” Kagome mentally sighed with relief. She didn't know why it was so important to not be his booty call. Maybe because she always had booty calls but was never one. Or it could be that she liked him…. HAHAH Don't kid yourself Kagome! He is annoying and impossible. He's not what you want in a guy. He may be jaw dropping handsome and sexy but he's not your type. She touched the stereo's power button to disperse the silence.

“ Why'd you turn on the radio?”

“ No one's talking. Its entertainment.”

“ Turn it off.”

“ Excuse me?! In case you have forgotten. Its my car!”

“ I'm driving, meaning I'm in charge. I want to talk.”

“ What the fuck do you want to possibly talk about?”

“ This who booty call thing.”

She turned the stereo off. “ I thought you just told me I want your fucking booty call. What the fuck more is there to say?”

“ The peace lasted so short a time. From the office to my house, you barely cursed and now you're on a roll again.”

“ Shut up.” She honestly hadn't noticed that she had stopped cursing. It was like her defense mechanism and the fact that she hadn't used it meant she was softening up.

“ Why would you even think that you were just a booty call? I'm talking to you now aren't I? You know where I live and work. That doesn't sound like a typical booty call.”

“ I know where you live because you tended to my ankle there and I know here you work because I like Japanese food. And you're talking to me again because…” She couldn't find a reason.

“ Because what? You don't have a reason do you?”

She slumped in her seat, unhappy with her inability to answer him. He helped out. “ Its ok that you don't have an answer. I don't have on either.”

She peered up at him to se him looking back at her briefly before looking back at the road ahead of him.

 

 

Kagome simply jumped from the passengers seat to the drivers seat when they stopped in the parking lot of the restaurant.

“ You sure you can find you're way home?”

“ Yes. I'm not that stupid!”

“ You said it not me.” She narrowed her eyes at him.

“ Fuck off.”

“ Must you be so hostile?”

She revved the engine threateningly. His face became solemnly. “ Kagome?”

“ Yes?” She answered softly in response to his seriousness.

“ Can I see you tonight?”

She looked at him surprisingly. She was confused and speechlessly.

“ Are… are you serious?” He nodded slowly. She sputtered, “ When?”

“ Later tonight. I could come to you're house at 11 or so.”

“ You would sneak over to my house in the dead of the night to see me?”

“ May I?”

She nodded drunkenly. “ I hope you're office is ok.” She put the car into reverse and drove out the lot. As she drove out she noticed him standing smug with his hands in his pockets watching her drive out.

 

 

Kagome was a wreck when she opened up her front door. She didn't know whether to make heads or tails of Inuyasha's odd request to see her later that night. She was going mad.

“ Good evening Ms. Higurashi.” The butler bowed reverently.

“ Evening.” She replied her zombie trance. She walked slowly from the entrance hall to the Grand hall. She turned in to the parlor to see her mother propped up with a book. She waved politely and smiled reserved.

“ Good evening mother.”

“ Hello Kagome. Supper will be served in 15 minutes. Go get washed up.”

“ Ok mother.” She turned to leave. But her mother stopped her.

“ Are you feeling well Kagome?”

She gave her a blank stare as if she hadn't seen her but she slowly nodded. Her mother gave her a scrutinizing look before Kagome walked out of the room. As she ascended the stairs to her bedroom, she found herself wanting supper and dinner to pass quickly. It made the time when Inuyasha came, come a little closer and faster.
