He's A What?

 

Chapter 2: Tears Of Joy And Confusion

 

After peeling himself from the ground and finding Kagome stuffing her face in her house, InuYasha finally got her to follow him to the well so they could go back. He really wanted to get to finding the shards again, that way he could find a way to nicely get Kikyou to go to hell without him.

 

`I still don't understand why I ever made such a promise to her in the first place, I mean, she's dead and I really don't like her that way anymore. So what exactly was I thinking?'

 

Shaking his head at his own stupidity, InuYasha leapt down into the well, knowing that Kagome would follow soon. Bathed by the same familiar blue light as he passed through time and landed upon the other side, InuYasha didn't even wait as he leapt out of the well and began walking back towards the village, deep in thought not noticing the way the wind shifted and the scent of crushed Jupiter and rain wafted through the clearing.

 

It signaled the arrival of someone but InuYasha continued on as if nothing at all had happened, because in his mind…nothing had.

 

`Things are getting weird…I mean, I thought that I liked Kagome, she is pretty…but in a sisterly sort of way I suppose. I just don't get what's happening to me…it's like I am becoming someone else, but that can't be right…because this all seems familiar to me…but how can that be?'

 

Stopping, InuYasha buried both of his hands in his hair and tugged, hard. “Damn it! What the hell is happening to me?!”

 

“You shouldn't speak to yourself half-breed,” as the ice cold tone of the voice swept about him, InuYasha felt his body tremble in barely held…excitement?

 

Turning, InuYasha faced the eternal rival that he never asked for, his elder half-brother…Sesshoumaru.

 

Immediately InuYasha felt as if he had been punched in the stomach and he just plain couldn't breathe! Before him stood his brother, he knew this but for some reason he couldn't fathom, he found himself falling to his knees and his heart began beating frantically.

 

`No! It can't be, I do not find that bastard attractive, not one bit!!!...his hair does look soft though, I wonder if it feels sof…Damn! No No No! I can't let my mind play tricks on me, I just can't think he of all people is attractive!!'

 

Sesshoumaru just watched InuYasha's behavior with much amusement in his eyes, which was until he caught InuYasha's scent, he nearly doubled over at how intoxicating it was. `This doesn't make any sence…why does he smell almost like a…' Sesshoumaru felt his eyes widen at where his thoughts were leading him, but in truth it did make a lot of things that had happened before make sence now.

 

Struggling to maintain at least some dignity, InuYasha forced himself to look away from Sesshoumaru as he took a deep breath to calm himself, “what are you doing here…Sesshoumaru?”

 

Startled by InuYasha's question, Sesshoumaru scowled as he mentally berated himself, “I could ask you the same…brother…”

 

InuYasha's entire body trembled at the way Sesshoumaru's voice just rolled over him, blanketing him in feelings that he couldn't completely understand, `oh kami…what in the seven hells is happening to me? I've never felt this way around him before, so why now?'

 

“I asked you first…” looking up at Sesshoumaru, InuYasha tried, oh how he tried, to focus his eyes upon Sesshoumaru's, but instead his eyes decided to zero in on Sesshoumaru's lips. His mouth suddenly feeling dry, InuYasha licked his lips as he found himself thinking about what his brother's lips would taste and feel like against his own.

 

Sesshoumaru knew a look of desire when he saw it, but he just couldn't fathom why his half-brother, who hated his guts…or so he thought, would gaze at him with such obvious affection and lust…or was it really love that he saw shining within the golden depths of his brother's eyes?

 

“InuYasha…are you ill?” His eyebrows narrowed, Sesshoumaru made sure that he wasn't within reaching distance of his brother, InuYasha seemed to snap out of his trance at Sesshoumaru's question and his face burned with a dark embarrassed blush.

 

“I…I don't really know…I…” shaking his head, InuYasha jumped to his feet and approached Sesshoumaru, getting right up in his face, “what do you care…you're always trying to kill me and now that something strange is happening to me, you're all worried and stuff…well you want to know what's wrong? This is what's wrong!”

 

Moving before Sesshoumaru could react, InuYasha gripped the back of Sesshoumaru's neck and pulled his head down, snarling InuYasha pressed his lips roughly to his elder brothers. Closing his eyes as pleasure flashed through his body, InuYasha nearly melted when he felt his brother press back into the kiss, his fangs cut InuYasha's upper lip but InuYasha couldn't care less.

 

After a few minutes passed, InuYasha ripped away from Sesshoumaru and took a step back, he felt tears wet his face as he whipped at his bleeding lip. “That's what's wrong…” turning, InuYasha ran from the clearing and Sesshoumaru, he whipped at his eyes as he ran to Kaede's village…he didn't want anyone to see him cry.

 

Back in the clearing he had just left, Sesshoumaru could only stare into the distance where InuYasha had taken off, his mind a jumble of confused emotions and thoughts. `He is attracted to me, how is that possible…InuYasha has always hated me…unless this is what father warned me about. There is more to this than meets the eye, I will keep an eye on InuYasha and maybe…I will find answers.'

 

Having made up his mind, Sesshoumaru walked in the direction InuYasha had gone, keeping his nose attune to his brother's scent. He was determined to get to the bottom of this, but as he continued into the trees, he began to wonder what his real intentions towards InuYasha were.

 

Shaking it off, Sesshoumaru continued on his way, undeterred from the main goal of all this, find out what the heck is going on with InuYasha and he had a feeling that he would soon be finding that out.

 

At the same time, InuYasha had just reached the village and was determined to make sure no one knew let alone suspected what had just happened back there, feeling a blush creep up his neck at just the memory of his brother's lips InuYasha mentally shook himself.

 

He needed a clear head if he was going to pull this off, taking a deep breath and then slowly releasing it, InuYasha quickly scrunched his face in a familiar scowl as he stomped into Kaede's hut only to find that no one was even in there.

 

His act immediately dropped and was replaced with concern, moving out of the hut InuYasha looked about and sniffed the air, catching their scents all in one place InuYasha grudgingly took off at a run, determined to find out just what was going on.

 

Picking up another scent among his friends, InuYasha nearly doubled over at how his stomach twisted, `fuck! Why the hell is this happening to me and why the hell is that wolf here?!'

 

Grumbling to himself as he entered the clearing that the others were standing in, he caught the last of their conversation as he walked up to them, “…if he gets here with Kagome, sorry Kouga…that's all we can say until…InuYasha!”

 

Turning from Kouga, Sango gave InuYasha's disheveled and clearly pissed person a once over, she then smiled as she glanced over his shoulder expecting to see Kagome there but what greeted her eyes had her diving for her Hiraikotsu.

 

Miroku had turned as well and he was now holding his staff at the ready, his expression hard and serious. Kouga meanwhile, had started snarling as he glared at InuYasha but once he looked behind InuYasha he stopped snarling, freezing to the spot in shock.

 

Shippou was quivering where he stood while Kaede was giving InuYasha a quizzical look, Kirara was at Sango's side and was hissing angrily as well.

 

Confused by his comrades behavior, InuYasha was about to ask what had gotten into them when he caught a scent that made his blood boil and his body ache, feeling breathless already InuYasha turned to find that Sesshoumaru was standing right behind him with an eyebrow raised in mock surprise.

 

“Sesshoumaru…what are you doing here?” InuYasha had wanted to sound angry and defensive but after what he had done back by the well, he found that he couldn't be angry with his brother, no matter how hard he tried. So his voice ended up coming out confused and embarrassed, which from the looks on his friends faces, it must have also held some tenderness to it as well.

 

Looking down at InuYasha, Sesshoumaru strode forwards and stopped mere inches from his brother, glancing at the others once before he lashed out and gripped InuYasha by the throat.

 

Sesshoumaru had expected many things from his brother but when InuYasha just remained still and kept his eyes focused on his own, Sesshoumaru knew that what InuYasha had done back in that clearing was how he seriously felt, but what happened next was definitely something that Sesshoumaru never expected.

 

InuYasha's hands had lashed out and taken a hold of Sesshoumaru's hair, with one solid tug, InuYasha had brought Sesshoumaru's head within touching distance to his own.

 

Keeping his voice low, InuYasha decided to handle this the best he could, “please Sesshoumaru, don't tell anyone about before…you can kill me if you wish, but I tell you now,” letting his voice raise, InuYasha closed his eyes, “I will not fight you Sesshoumaru, you are not my enemy…brother.”

 

`I can't believe that I am saying this…but I'm sick of all this, I just want to have someone hold me and never let me go…wait…what the hell am I thinking? Oh god, something bad is happening to me…' before InuYasha had a chance to finish that thought he felt a pair of soft lips touch his own.

 

Letting out a gasp of surprise, InuYasha felt his toes curl when a tongue slithered its way past his parted lips and into his mouth, the taste of jasmine and thyme coated the tongue and as InuYasha sank into the kiss he felt Sesshoumaru's hand slip free from his neck. Only to feel it curl about his waist as his body was secured to the hard one of his elder brother, as that thought struck him, InuYasha's mind turned to mush and all he could think about was how wonderful this felt.

 

For what seemed to be forever they kissed until a sudden shout of “SIT!” split the air and a second later a cry of pain followed as InuYasha was dragged from his brother, only to be slammed into the hard ground below his feet.

 

InuYasha groaned as his vision swam and pain began lancing throughout his system, feeling himself drifting into the darkness of unconsciousness, InuYasha could only think of one thing.

 

“Sesshoumaru…” with that said, InuYasha succumbed to the darkness.
