InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Go Home Kagome ❯ There were no words ( Chapter 9 )

Nine

 

Lime warning.

 

Kagome swung around in her desk chair and saw Inuyasha sitting on her window sill. Her throat was dry and she didn't know what to say. She'd thought of him every other second since she left and here he was…as if nothing had changed. But everything was different…wasn't it?

 

He looked the same and still wore the red fire rat haori. Her mini fan blew his silver hair around his face. He seemed older. His face was thinner or something else she couldn't decipher.

 

While she was away she thought of a million things she wanted to say to him and now they were all out of reach. He stepped forward closing the space between them. She just sat in her chair feeling like a department store dummy.

 

“Kagome.” It was the only word on his lips. She took a deep breath and then stood to meet him.

 

He reached for her and for a millisecond the world paused on its axis. Kagome had a choice. She could stay where she was or take one step forward into his arms. It was such a small amount of space that separated them.

 

A breeze caught a long strand of his hair and it rose up brushing her cheek. Kagome was a stronger and wiser woman than the one who left three years ago. But she was tired of being strong and the involuntary caress was her undoing.

 

Her feet moved of their own volition making the decision for her. Inuyasha wrapped his arms around her pulling her into his chest and the world began to move again but it spun with a speed that made her head swim.

 

His kimono was as soft as she remembered and he smelled the same. His scent was one of safety, protection and now it was also one of heated promises.

 

Inuyasha put his chin on top of her head and closed his eyes. These past months his arms ached for her. Now she was in them but he was afraid he was merely napping in the God Tree and would soon awake. He felt her shoulders move and then her arms came around his chest returning his embrace. Her arms were so

thin, yet strong.

 

Kagome lifted her head from Inuyasha's chest and turned her face up so she could see him. He felt the movement and bent his head down to see what she was doing. Before either knew what was coming it was already too late. Kagome saw a flash of his golden cat eyes before he captured her mouth with his.

 

Inuyasha's heart stopped in his chest while he waited for a protest or the sit command osuwari. But nothing came. She stood on tiptoe perfectly still in his arms as he moved his lips across hers. A moment later she was returning the kiss.

 

The build up to this moment had taken so long they were content to go slow and revel in every single moment. He titled his head and lightly nibbled her lips as he moved his hand up her back until he was supporting the back of her head. He felt the warm breath from her nose across his cheek.

 

Inuyasha felt Kagome press her lips harder against his and he was shocked when she opened her mouth to him. Electricity snapped and sizzled in his head when she carefully touched her tongue to his. He stumbled and answered her call with his own lips and tongue.

 

Inuyasha slowly backed up against the window ledge in order to keep his balance. His senses were overwhelmed and he wasn't certain he could trust them. Kagome's hands came up and locked around his neck. His hands were free and he ran them down her sides and to her waist. He paused then cupped her rear.

 

Inuyasha made the move to see how far she'd let him go. He was following his own passion but also testing her. Kagome froze and she ended the kiss but not the embrace. She met his half lidded golden gaze. He looked away and rubbed his face against her neck. He spoke as he tasted her.

 

“Now what?”

 

Kagome was breathless. “Huh?”

 

Inuyasha pulled away and put his hands on her shoulders. “Is this what you want?”

 

Kagome's face was already flushed but she was certain she blushed. She put her hands on his face and he kissed the center of her palm. She couldn't believe it had come to this and so very quickly. Her mind was reaching for images of her mother and Kikyo but she slammed the door shut on them. Not now, not tonight. Maybe we should have this one night. Screw the rest of the world and damn the consequences.

 

“Inuyasha?” she whispered.

 

“Yeah?” he answered knowing this was coming to a fast end.

 

“Are we going to live to regret this?”

 

He ran his hands down her upper arms and held her elbows in the palms of his hands. “I don't care.”

 

Then Kagome committed the most dangerous sin. She took a risk. “Then neither do I.”

 

Inuyasha crushed her to him and brought his lips back down to claim hers. Her touch sanctified him and his hands raced down her sides pausing to cup her breasts through her thin t-shirt.

 

Kagome shuddered and pulled off the outer layer of his kimono. It fell to the floor and landed in a pile of red fluff at his feet. The Tetsusaiga soon followed and clanged as it hit the floor. He bent down and ran his hands over her rear. She was reminded of Miroku and smiled He lifted her up and Kagome straddled his hips and he walked them over to her old bed.

 

Inuyasha laughed as he tossed her onto the unmade bed. She blushed then hushed him. He pulled off his white linen shirt and then climbed into the bed beside her. It's like coming home. Kagome…

 

Inuyasha leaned over her just soaking in the sight of her smiling with her hair lying in dark inky pools around her head. Kagome reached up and pulled her fingers through his hair pausing to massage his ears. He growled his approval.

 

“You have the most extraordinary hair Inuyasha.”

 

He smiled quietly and she began tweaking his ears mercilessly. He settled his weight between her legs even though she was still fully clothed.

 

Kagome reacted to the intimate contact by hooking her arms around his neck. She met his eyes and for a moment it was all too much.

 

“I…missed you so much.” She whispered before breaking down into tears.

 

And just when I thought I finally understood her. Inuyasha held her while she cried. Then when she was done he made her laugh by kissing her nose. Soon after that they stopped having sex and began making love, expressing in actions what could not be said in words.
