Yay! Chapter two! I'm not really sure why its so short… maybe its `cause I ran out of ideas `cause no one is commenting! R&R!
Kagome's soft lips caressed his neck and jaw. He shuddered under her soft touch. Her hot breath made him want her even more. He grabbed her fiercely and brought her into a hot, passionate kiss. Her lips were teasing him. Pulling back every few seconds daring him to continue. He wanted her. No, needed her. His hands found her shirt and lifted it over her head and then pressed his lips back to hers. Kagome pulled back and shoved him onto the bed, climbing atop him the moment he hit the mattress.
“InuYasha?” Her voice was distant. Her lips were unmoving as she stared blankly at the wall, “InuYasha? Are you in there? Hello?”
Suddenly, his perfect scenario was shaken away from him and he opened his eyes groggily. “Wh… What? Kagome?”
Her eyes were red with the combination of crying and little sleep. Her lips curled into a little smile and she giggled, “Your jeans are a little tight.”
InuYasha put a pillow in his lap, “No they're not! They're always like that.” He said with a menacing grin.
Kagome laughed again and climbed onto the bed next to InuYasha.
“You feeling any better?” InuYasha asked quietly.
“I suppose, as long as I don't think about it. Lets do something fun today!” Kagome said excitedly.
InuYasha closed his eyes remembering his lovely dream. He felt himself throb beneath the pillow and he reluctantly opened his eyes. To his utter surprise, Kagome was inches away from his face and she was staring directly into his eyes. “You're eyes are really gold. I never noticed that before. Its cool!” Her mouth smiled but her eyes remained unchanged. No glistening happiness, no life to them. Without even thinking about it, InuYasha reached out and embraced her in a big hug.
“We can do whatever you want.” He murmured into her hair. His senses came alive when she buried her face in his neck. Her lips touched his neck for a split second and he had to use every restraint in his mind to resist the temptation to take her right then and there.
Kagome pulled away first, her eyes glistening with fresh tears. “Okay. Lets get ready to go. You still have your drawer. I didn't empty it.” She said standing up.
InuYasha had stayed with Kagome for a month while his house was being fumigated for vermin so naturally he had a drawer all to himself for then and any… unexpected future sleepovers.
An hour later, they had both showered and dressed and were sitting in the kitchen munching on cereal. InuYasha picked at his wheaties and thought to himself how much more enjoyable this day would've been if he'd just kissed her that night at the ball. If he had made his move, maybe Kouga wouldn't have swept her off of her feet and she wouldn't have fallen in love with some well to-do “pure-bred” high status guy that just would wind up breaking her heart.
“So, I was thinking that we could go to the beach and knock back a few drinks and then go for a swim. How's that sound?” Kagome said in between bites of cereal.
“Kagome, you plus alcohol plus swimming equals not good. In fact… you plus alcohol equals bad, even you plus swimming… bad too. How about we stay away from booze and water?” InuYasha said jokingly.
“I guess you're right. We should do something fun though. Like… horseback riding!” Kagome's eyes lit up like firecrackers. She stood up and put her bowl in the sink and gave InuYasha a happy smile, like she was ready to take on the universe. InuYasha just smiled and got up to place his dish in the sink as well. The kitchen of Kagome's apartment was small; small enough that InuYasha could feel Kagome's breath on him as he squeezed by on the way to the sink. Her eyes traced him and she reached out a cautious hand to his face.
“Kagome? Ehhh…” InuYasha grew tense as her fingertips trailed through his long hair, “What're you doing?” his voice cracked as he spoke. Again, Kagome's lips smiled but her eyes remained as cold as the frozen soil in the winter.
“Your hair would look so cool in a ponytail!” Kagome said in a silly tone she usually only used on small children and InuYasha when he was acting like one.
He scoffed and caught her hand, “That is just about the dumbest thing I've ever heard. Lets go find some horses before they all die.” InuYasha grumbled as he turned and left the kitchen.
Kagome scrunched up her nose and huffed out through her nose. `Is he bipolar or PMSing because he's acting like a teenage girl! Happy one minute, sad the next! Can't he just make up his mind?' Kagome watched him as he gathered his keys off of the table by the entryway, “You comin' slow poke?” he said seemingly irritated.
Outside, they both got into InuYasha's car and sat in silence.
“Where do you get horses?” InuYasha said, obviously realizing how stupid of an idea it was to go horseback riding.
“It's a nice day, why don't we just go for a walk in the park?” Kagome said hopefully.
“That I know how to get to.” InuYasha said as he slammed on the gas.
When they arrived at the park, InuYasha and Kagome began the three-mile loop around the park. Kagome babbled happily about something that InuYasha was clueless about. Kagome was unusually happy for having just been broken up with. He gazed at her and looked at her upturned lips moving with her words. Her eyes were liquid chocolate swirls, alight with life.
Suddenly, her mood plummeted into a dark abyss. Her eyes lost their liquid form and became very hard, cold globes.
“Oh my God!” tears began to form, “Its Kouga! And who the hell is that whore?”
