Drabbles: Inuyasha x Kagome
I do not own Inuyasha or Co.
-Fe ar-

Lightning flashed across the bleak gray and black sky, soon followed by the roar of thunder. I shuddered against the sheets, wanting so badly to cuddle up to the nearest thing, but much to my surprise, nothing was there. I cried as the lightning hit outside the window, my head quickly ducking under the covers. One thing crossed my mind.

I need Inuyasha.

I, Kagome, a nineteen year old female, am terrified of lightening. Of all the times for my family to take off out of town to visit Keade. I took refuge at the Takashi’s for the summer. I couldn’t take the storm anymore, and if it wasn’t for the fact that we had to sleep in separate rooms, I would have already been with Inuyasha.

Slipping from the covers and making it quickly across the dark room, I opened the door slightly. It was very dark and every time I tried to leave the room, lightning would strike scaring the shit out of me. Finally, once the last bolt hit, lighting my path, I dashed for the room across the hall.

I opened it very gently as to keep the sleeping figure undisturbed. I didn't move, I loved staring at him, but once again lightning, followed by thunder, scared me making me jolt for the bed. I crawled in beside him and smiled.

"Inuyasha? Inuyasha are you awake?" He moved slightly.

"No, Kagome, I'm not. What are you doing in here?" He questioned me.

"Um well ---“ Thunder rolled across the sky and lightning emitted from the window. I wailed
lightly and ducked into his arms for comfort.

"Oh you're afraid of storms?" I blushed. Even though it was dark and my face was in his neck, I’m sure he noticed. "Stop being afraid, Kagome. It's nothing to worry about. I'll protect you."

My eyes lit up and I smiled. "Thank you, Inuyasha."

He nodded. "No problem. Everyone has fears you know?"

"What's yours?"

Inuyasha's eyes widened. "What's it to you?"

I looked up to him. "Because I care about you, and I want to know.”

Inuyasha sighed. "My fear is being alone, with no one around, to be concealed in darkness."

I frowned. "I won't leave you alone. No matter what I'll always be here for you, Inuyasha. I promise." I leaned up from my spot on his chest and kissed him. Slow at first, but then I kind of let myself melt into it.

"I won't let you leave me, Kagome." Inuyasha smiled slightly. He brought his arms protectively around my slim figure. I brushed a strand of silver hair out of his eyes before settling down in his arms.

"Inuyasha promise me something."

"What, Kagome?"

"Promise me you'll always protect me too."

Inuyasha's eyes softened.  "You shouldn’t even have to ask wench.” I smacked his arm. “Okay, I promise.”

“Inuyasha. You know I love you right?” I swear his heart skipped a beat.

“Keh.” He tightened around me. Inuyasha is not the most romantic man, trust me. However, I have come to learn what his simple words mean and by the look in his eyes, I know his true feelings.

I knew I had to be out of his room before the sun rose, but right now I didn’t care. I was where I felt I needed to be, and it felt damn good.
