Chapter 5:
Confessions and Dreams:
“Are you sure you're comfortable with this. It's not too late to change your mind.” Inuyasha wasn't one to look a gift horse in the mouth but he was beginning to wonder if he had made a mistake.
Kagome was flying around the room adjusting this and that. It was something she always did when she was nervous. It was a trait she vaguely remembered her mother having. She almost didn't hear Inuyasha's question over her own bustling.
“What? Oh, I'm perfectly fine!” Kagome was hoping he didn't hear her voice crack under the horrible lie. As luck would have it, he didn't buy it. She really needed to get better at this lying thing.
“No you're not. Granted I've only known you for less than a day, but something's wrong. You can tell me if you're not comfortable. I'll figure something else out.” Inuyasha's voice trailed off with the disappointment he hadn't meant to put at the end of his declaration. He winced when he realized how desperate he sounded.
Kagome wondered why he sounded so hurt. `I probably hurt his male pride. He thinks I think he can't protect me. I don't want to hurt him.' Kagome sighed.
“Inuyasha, if you think that this is for the best then that's what I want to do. I wanted Miroku to come along but I don't want him to be in danger. If I sleep in the same room as him, he could be killed too. I admit that I am a tad fidgety but it will pass. It's not you, it's this whole situation. It's hard to believe that this sword is so important that someone would resort to these measures.”
Inuyasha hadn't thought about that. She really didn't know anything about the sword. Maybe he could use this to his advantage. Maybe if she was curious enough about the sword, he could get something from her in return.
“Do you wanna know why the sword is so important?” He could almost see the lights turn on in her beautiful grey-blue eyes.
“Yes; very much so.”
“If I tell you about the sword then I get to ask you one question that you have to answer afterwards. Is it a deal?”
Kagome thought about this. What could he possibly want to know about her? She wasn't very interesting. She was a lonely lawyer that didn't have any friends or hobbies. That was it. He wanted free legal advice. That had to be it. Smiling, she nodded. “Agreed.”
Inuyasha was praising whatever deity was up there that she agreed. He cleared his throat and begun to weave his tale…
“About five hundred years ago there was a mighty Lord that ruled over the Western lands of Japan. His wife bore him a son and he was very happy. The three of them could always be seen together. He taught his son how to be a leader and how to fight. He also taught him how to hunt and about love. His wife taught his son how to paint and sing and play the flute. She taught him about the finer things in life.
“One day his wife fell ill and the doctor told him that there was nothing they could do and that she would die soon. He sped to her room to talk to her while she was still able. When he got there, he could see that she was barely holding on. He went to her bedside and began to stroke her face.”
Inuyasha kept talking as Kagome came to sit next to him on his bed. She was wide eyed and had a sad crinkle in her forehead. Inuyasha knew he had the gift of storytelling. All his students had told him so and he loved to see the reactions on their faces as he told the stories of history. It was one of his favorite things in the whole world. Now, he was sharing his enjoyment with his new favorite person in the world. Kagome grabbed his hand and encouraged him with a nod.
“She whispered to him to take a new wife when she was gone. She wanted him to find another mother figure for her son and she wanted her beloved husband to be happy. She told him it was her dying wish and then she pass on to the underworld.
“The next few months were hard for the widow and his son. They didn't know what to do with themselves without their wonderful wife and mother.
“One day while hunting, they found an injured maiden in the forest. She was covered in dirt and couldn't remember her name let alone anything else. The Lord and his heir took her back to the castle and told her she was welcome to stay.
“Many more months passed and the Lord fell in love with the maiden who was now named Takara; for she really was their treasure. The Lord married Takara and after a year she bore him another son.
“They taught him all the things the first son was taught. Hunting, music, fighting, poetry and so on. The first and second sons would play together and got along very well.
“Many years later, it was time for the first son to fulfill his duty to the land. Before he was named the new lord, the father commissioned two swords to be made. The Lord found the most well known and sought after sword maker in all the land. He asked the swords to be made with the finest steal and best materials the sword maker could work with.
“The day before the first son was named Lord, their father presented them with the two swords. He told his sons that they were brother swords and they must always stay together, much like them. It was a symbol of the brothers' bond.
“Legend has it that the two brothers decided to rule together and equally. Their first sons did so after them and so on and so forth. The swords followed on with each generation until about two hundred years ago. The new generations didn't get along well and refused to rule together. They started a war and eventually one side won over the other. Because of their actions, the Gods decided to take their swords and hide them.
“Eventually, everyone forgot about the swords and they vanished into history until about ten years ago. Some archeologists were digging in Japan and found a diary of the sword maker. He had several months worth of journal entries about forging the swords and what their purpose was. The journal itself went for ten million dollars US just because it mentioned the brother swords. The swords would be worth ten times as much. About five years ago, the Tenseiga was found. Sesshoumaru bought it at auction for ninety million dollars.”
Kagome gasped at the price. Inuyasha smiled at her and proceeded with his explanation.
“That's why this Naraku wants the sword. It's worth a very large amount. He wants it so bad he can taste it.”
Kagome had a thoughtful look on her face. Inuyasha was wondering what her mind was concocting. He didn't have to wait long.
“So, that's the reason why they would want it. What makes you so different? Don't you want it for the same reason?”
Inuyasha didn't expect the hurt he felt at her accusation. She didn't know anything!
“I'll admit I want to find the Tetsusaiga, but not for the same reasons as that asshole. I would never hurt someone to get what I wanted like him.”
Kagome could see that she had upset him unintentionally. Inuyasha had his fists on his thighs; clenched. He was staring at the wall across the room like he wanted to punch it. Kagome had to do something before he lost his cool and got angry with her.
“I'm sorry. I know that you're different from him. I didn't mean to offend you. I would have never put my safety in your hands if I thought you were capable of the same things as him. I just wanted to know why you wanted to find it so badly I guess.”
Inuyasha was startled out of his `mood change' by Kagome's soft words. He looked over at her to see that she had turned away from him and had her head down. Inuyasha sighed and took her hand again which in turn made her head pop up and a startled look come over her face. When Kagome saw that Inuyasha was smiling, she smiled back.
“I sorry too. I know you don't put me in the same category as that filth. It's just that, my whole treasure hunting career, a lot of people have called me a grave robber and lots of other unsavory names. I just get a little defensive is all.”
“That's okay.” Kagome still wondered why he wanted it. Her questioning gaze reminded Inuyasha as much.
“The reason Sesshoumaru and I want the swords so much is because the similarities in us and the first brothers the swords were given to. Other than the fact that we're half brothers, we're named after them. The eldest brother was named Sesshoumaru and the youngest was named Inuyasha. There's one more reason we want the swords found. Now that I think about it, I don't even think I told Sango and Myoga. I wonder why I never told them.”
Kagome knew Inuyasha was going to tell her something very crucial and the fact that he was talking to himself instead of spiting it out was pissing her off. She wanted to know damn it! “Um, Inuyasha, what was the other reason?”
“Oh yeah,” Inuyasha faced her with a sheepish look. “The other reason is because our dad told us the story of the brothers when we were little. When we were older, he told us that we were supposedly descendants of the brothers. That's why we want those swords so bad. We want that part of our family's history back. It means a great deal to us. Do you understand now why we need to find them?”
Kagome smiled up at him and told him that she understood.
“Now that I've told you the history about the sword, I get my question.”
Kagome went back to her bed that was right beside Inuyasha's so she could give him her undivided attention. “What was the question?”
“Well, don't get mad but, I was talking to Miroku about something in the car that just came up. I asked him a question but he told me that it was a question for you to answer; that he had no place to answer.”
Kagome had steeled herself for a law related question. Her eyes widened when she saw what he was getting at. There could only be a few questions that Miroku could have said that to. She swallowed hard and nodded for him to continue.
Inuyasha saw the horror in her eyes and almost told her never mind, that he wouldn't ask. At the same time, her reaction pushed him to ask the question. Now he just had to know. He would try to make her more comfortable though.
“Kagome, if it's too painful for you to answer, then I won't make you. I'm just curious and sometimes it helps to get things off your chest. I know it sounds really cliché but you'll never know until you try.”
Those words rang true with Kagome. Miroku had spoken those same words time and time again to her. She had always told him that it was a stupid suggestion because she could never trust anyone enough to tell them. She had even tried telling a shrink once but ran out of the room blubbering and terrified into Miroku's arms. But here was her knight in shining armor giving her the same advice and, strangely enough, she didn't feel nervous or scared anymore. She trusted him with her secret. `When did I start to trust him' she asked herself. Was it when she opened her eyes on the street after the attack to find him gazing back at her? Or was it when he promised her with his life that he would keep her safe? She didn't know. All she knew was that she wanted to tell him. “Ask your question,” she said in a determined voice.
Inuyasha watched the emotions run across her eyes. First there was fear, then puzzlement and now she was nothing but calm and resolute. He wondered what she was thinking but thought better than to waste his one question on that. He blinked and sucked in a breath.
“Well, at first I was warning your perverted cousin about messing with Sango. If he does something stupid, she'll shoot him through a window and think nothing about it.”
Kagome giggled and let him continue.
“Then, he said that he should warn me about you.”
Kagome gulped but didn't interrupt.
“He said that I shouldn't be surprised if you don't warm up to me and the others; if you remain distant. I asked him why you would be like that, but he told me that it wasn't for him to answer. I guess what I'm asking is, why you never get close to anyone?”
Kagome dropped her eyes and then sighed. “I don't like to talk about those things and Miroku knows it. I guess he was right in not telling you because if anyone one told you, it would probably be better if it were me. I've told Miroku a lot but he still doesn't know some things. If I tell you though, you have to promise not to look at me with pity. That's the one thing I can't stand.”
“Trust me Kagome; if anyone hates pity more than you, it's me. I swear that I won't look at you any differently than I do right now.”
And she did trust him so she continued.
“And you won't tell anyone else; not even Miroku?”
“Cross my heart and hope to die.”
“Okay, I guess I'll start with the part Miroku knows. When I was ten, I moved to Japan with my grandfather. We got along great until the day before my graduation. He always wanted me to be a doctor like my mother. I guess I can understand why.”
Inuyasha wanted to ask why but he just let himself listen. He didn't want her to stop now.
“I wanted to be a lawyer. I mean really, really wanted to be a lawyer. At the time I was prepared to do as my grandfather wished but Miroku convinced me that I should follow my heart; that if it was something that would make me happy, my parents would want me to follow through with it.
“So, the night before I graduated, I told my grandfather that I was going to become a lawyer. He got so angry.”
Kagome voice was so small that Inuyasha had to strain to hear. She had her head down again. He very slowly, so she would know he was coming, got up and moved over to her bed like she had done before. She looked up at him with tears in her eyes and smiled a painful smile. He wanted to kiss her at that very moment. Inuyasha wanted to make her forget all the pain and damage of her soul but contained himself. She was still keeping him at a distance and he didn't want to betray her trust.
Kagome took a deep breath threw the tears and kept talking before she lost her nerve.
“He almost threw me out on the street. Before he could I called Miroku and told him what happened. He came over and took me to his house. He comforted me the best way he could but the damage had already been done. I don't trust anyone to be close to me for two reasons and that one is the biggest one. He was my grandfather and in those moments he hated me. I could see it in his eyes. He wanted to hate me forever but he most likely couldn't because I look exactly like my mom. He could never hate someone that looked like his daughter.”
Kagome was full blown bawling now. Her whole body was racked with sobs. Inuyasha took his chances and pulled them both to the head of the bed. He set her in his lap with his arms wrapped protectively around her. She was soaking the front of his shirt but he could care less. He tried to sooth her with his voice. It had worked before and Inuyasha was an avid member of the `don't fix it if it ain't broken' club.
“Kagome,” he said softly, “you have to calm down or you might have another panic attack. Just listen to my breathing and imitate it.”
Inuyasha breathed slowly in and out. Soon Kagome had stopped cry and was breathing in time with him. They lay there for a long while, listening to each others hearts and breaths. Kagome felt so contented that she almost fell asleep before Inuyasha's velvet voice broke through.
“Kagome, if you want to stop now, we can. I don't want you to keep going if this is what it does to you. We can wait until another day. Are you sleepy?”
Kagome's yawn answered his question. Inuyasha chuckled and moved to get up and into his own bed. Before he could she was gripping the front of his shirt with a fierceness that he had never seen in her before. He looked at her with concern.
“Kagome? What's wrong? Are you okay?”
Kagome looked up at him. There was that wonderful, breathtaking concern again. She wondered quickly to herself if she would ever get used to looking into his beautiful, amber eyes.
“I'm fine. I was just wondering if you would, maybe…”
Her voice trailed off. Could she really ask him to do that and still keep him from jumping to conclusions? Would he take advantage of her?
Inuyasha saw her inner turmoil and wondered what she could possibly want him to do. All she had to do was ask and he would swallow fire.
Kagome sighed. “I was wondering if you would lie here with me until I fell asleep.” Kagome looked guiltily at the bed like she had done something wrong. Inuyasha wanted to smooth the lines on her face with his hands and kiss her eyes. If just lying here with her was what she wanted, then that's what he would do. If that's all she would ever give him, he would take it. He put his hand under her chin and lifted it up so she was looking at him. He nodded at her and a smiled graced her face. Oh what he wouldn't do to see her smile all day everyday. He would do anything to see her face light up like that for the rest of his life. It was official. In only twenty four hours, he was in love. He had never been in love before. He made a mental note to talk to Sango.
Inuyasha, still in a sitting position, let Kagome lie on his chest half sitting up herself. Before Kagome fell asleep, all she could think of was how right it felt. When Inuyasha noticed that she had drifted to sleep, he gently moved her to the pillow and slunk off the bed. When he got into his bed, he only noticed how empty and cold it was. He shivered and prepared himself for a night of tossing and turning.
---------------------------------
Miroku and Myoga sat on two bar stools across from Sango who was acting as bar tender. It was a small wet bar in one of the hotel rooms that they were sharing.
“So boys, what'll it be?”
Myoga scratched his chin and replied. “I think I'll have an Apple Brandy Sour*.”
“Sure thing; and what about you Miroku?”
“I just have some straight up whiskey; whatever's back there.”
Soon Sango had the guys drinks made and was making herself a Cosmopolitan Martini**.
Miroku slugged back the shot of whiskey and began to pour himself another one.
“So, is it really okay that Kagome's in a room all alone with Inuyasha? I don't mean to doubt but I had to ask.”
Sango shrugged. “If anyone can keep her safe, it's Inuyasha. She'll be fine. He won't let anyone hurt her.”
Miroku shook his head and sighed. “That's not really what I meant.” Another shot slide down his throat and another was poured. “I mean, he's a guy alone with a woman. Will he keep his hands to himself so to speak?”
Myoga was taking a swallow of his drink when Miroku got the sentence out. He almost choked threw a snort after hearing what he was getting at. Sango was making no effort to hold her laughter in. She threw her head back and cackled. Her reaction was probably more from the drink that she was almost done with than the question.
Miroku just looked at the two and wondered what inside joke he was missing. He was about to ask what was so damn funny when Sango started explaining before he could.
“Miroku, if she's safe with any male, it's Inuyasha. He's such a prude. I don't think he's been with a woman in two years. About six months ago we were worried it might fall off from not being used.” The three of them snickered and felt like they were breaking a law by talking about him in such a way. “Anyway,” Sango said after they got a little more serious. “Inuyasha and business friend of Myoga's named Kikyo went out on a couple dates and it started getting serious. He told me that they were at her apartment one night fooling around and she said that she wanted to fuck.”
Sango was getting annoyed at the perverted smile on Miroku's face but kept going all the same. She hadn't thought about the consequences of telling her friend's story but she would let the letcher know later to keep his mouth shut. Keeping an evil grin off her face at the possibilities, she continued.
“So, basically Inuyasha let her get to almost the point of no return and then he freaked out. The left her horny as hell sitting on a cold bed. Inuyasha told me later that he didn't really know what happened. He said that he felt his fight or flight instinct kick in and since he couldn't fight her, guess which one he picked.”
Miroku had a thoughtful look on his face. He wondered what was wrong with Inuyasha that he would prefer a night at home alone to a begging woman. There was only one thing it could be.
“Well, I guess the obvious question would be is he gay?”
It was Sango's turn to almost spit out her drink. She got a horrid look on her face like she had swallowed a bug. After she was sure that she wasn't going to gag on coughs, she found her voice and answered the question.
“He most certainly is not! I can see how you would think that but if you heard the things he said about Kagome last night, you would never ask that question.” Sango turned to make herself another drink when she realized what she had done. She stiffened and turned around to Miroku who was sporting a rather large grin. Sango's eyes got as big as saucers.
“Oh my god, you can't tell her. Inuyasha will kill me if you do!”
“Don't worry Sango my sweet. I won't tell Kagome that Inuyasha has the hots for her if you don't tell Inuyasha that Kagome is confused as to whether or not she has loving feelings for him.” Myoga cleared his throat and cocked an eyebrow.
“Well, this is an interesting development.”
Miroku turned to him with a grin. “Quite,” was all he said before downing a shot.
“So, what do we do?” Sango liked Kagome and from what she could see, Kagome was someone who would do Inuyasha some good. She may kill his fear of commitment.
“I don't think we need to interfere now. They seem to be moving quite fast on their own. I mean, if Inuyasha was truthful about the things he said to you Sango, and Kagome was truthful about the way she feels about him then we need to let them try to figure it out on their own. If they don't get it after a while, then we'll intervene.” Myoga was a man that liked the principal to let people live their own lives. He was a live and let live kind of man. But where Inuyasha was concerned, sometimes pushes in the right direction were needed.
With that said Myoga said good night and set off to find his bed. Sango and Miroku still sat at the bar sipping on their drinks.
“So Miroku, I have a question.”
“Fire away,” he said while swiveling his stool to face her.
Sango got a mischievous smile on her face and Miroku could feel the sweat start to bead on his forehead. “I was just wondering why a person with a sixth degree black belt in Taekwondo and a master of the bo staff would let someone else protect his cousin.”
Miroku suddenly went pale. He really started sweating and looked like a fish on the table with a knife at his throat. “How did you know that?”
“The internet is a wonderful tool. For that matter, so are private investigators.” Sango was wondering what the big deal was. Someone with that degree of knowledge should be proud. Miroku just looked angry.
“You had a private investigator dig up stuff on me? Why the hell would you do such a thing?!” Miroku was livid. That was a major violation of privacy. He could be caught if Sango decided to open her mouth. He was going to have to play it smooth.
“Okay, so you caught me.” Miroku took a deep breath and locked eyes with a confused Sango. “I am those things but I don't want Kagome to find out. She hates violence and would throw the biggest fit any of you have ever seen. If it really came to it I would protect her with what I know, but I would rather not.”
“Just because Kagome wouldn't like it, you refuse to protect her?” It was Sango's turn to get angry now. That was the stupidest thing she had ever heard. “Are you sure there's no other reason.”
“Well I thought, given the way Kagome felt about Inuyasha, I would let him protect her and maybe she would trust him enough to open up to him and give him a chance. There's a lot about Kagome that you don't know. It would seriously screw things up with me and her if she found out. It would be a reason she could use to push me away. She's tried so many times and I don't want to give her any ammunition. Please try to understand why I don't want her to know about this part of my life.”
Sango studied his face for a moment. Miroku seemed like he was sincere enough and she wanted Kagome and Inuyasha to get close too. She still didn't understand the whole `don't tell Kagome about the amazing skill level' but she would hold her tongue. He said that he would protect her if he had to but seemed content to let Inuyasha play the hero and get the girl. That was fine with her. Now, to snag her own hero. Sango smiled slyly and batted her eyes.
“I promise I won't tell. But I have to say, I'm very impressed.” Nothing worked better than stroking an ego when it came to guys. Who ever said `the way to a man's heart was through his stomach' obviously didn't know how to flatter a guy by talking about how strong he was.
“What are you referring to Sango my dear?”
“Your remarkable abilities of course. I've never met anyone with your kind of expertise before. May I ask why you don't teach?”
“Well, I only started martial arts as a way to stay in shape. I never meant to go this far. I like learning but I never had any desire to teach. I help the younger students every now and again but that's all. I love being a massage therapist. I love the human body and love to hear someone say that their day to day life is easier because I relax them. Would you like one?”
Minutes later a horribly loud skin to skin sound is heard followed by, “PERVERT!!!”
--------------------------------
“Kagura, the plans have changed. I need you to take one of them out.”
“Which one would that be?” Kagura hated to be ordered around but it was the life her shitty parents had given her. What the hell kind of parent sold their teenage daughter to a psycho just to have a condo in the Bahamas? Oh well, maybe one day she would be free, but today was not that day.
“Take the old one out. If you capture him he won't be able to put up much of a fight but will refuse to tell you anything. Don't kill him or Inuyasha will want revenge. Just injury him enough to get him out of the way.”
“Yes, sir.” Kagura hung up the phone and flopped down on the bed. So, how was she supposed to get him alone to do some damage. She was already risking being caught by staying at the same hotel as them.
Kagura lie on her bed formulating a plan. She needed a diversion. They were all so worried about the girl that it shouldn't be too hard.
She picked up the phone again and called in a favor. After a few rings, a gruff voice answered the other end.
“Hello?”
“Hello Kouga, I need a favor.”
-------------------------------------
Inuyasha was dreaming and he knew it. He was in a field with a wonderfully naked Kagome underneath him. She was looking up at him with a smile that lit up his whole make believe world. Inuyasha smiled back and while using his left elbow to hold himself up, he stroked her soft skin with his right hand. Inuyasha's hand smoothed her hair and moved to her face. Kagome closed her eyes and leaned into to his touch. Her reactions were already making blood flow from one head to another.
He felt himself get braver as he used the same hand to flow down her neck. He heard a giggle from Kagome and took it as a sign that she didn't mind letting him touch her. Inuyasha leaned down a pressed his lips softly to Kagome's. She was so soft and the kiss was as light as the wind. He moved his mouth to her chin and on down to her creamy neck. Inuyasha heard a very feminine sigh escape her rosy lips.
Inuyasha felt his body quivering as Kagome's hands started to roam to his body. She was lightly running her hands up and down his chest and every so often a delicate finger would brush against a nipple giving him the most delicious chills.
He moved his mouth down further and kissed his way down the middle of her breasts. He licked the underside of them and finally, giving her want she so desperately wanted, he lightly ran his tongue across a rock hard bud.
Kagome's back arched and she hissed with the contact. Inuyasha loved the sounds she was making and wanted to know if she would make other sounds. He slowly sucked a nipple into his mouth and swirled his pink muscle around it at the same time. Kagome's mew got louder when he nipped the rosy little nipple between his front teeth. He kissed his way to the other breast and latched on to it with a little more gusto than its twin.
When he sensed that she was getting inpatient for the next step, he leisurely kissed down her belly and leg until he was nibbling on her right ankle. He had deliberately passed the place that wanted the most attention and she gave him a ferocious growl to show her displeasure.
Inuyasha just chuckled and slid a hand down the inside of her thigh until he was teasing her with an inch of space. Finally, and much to Kagome's liking, he placed the pad of his thumb to her clit and applied a slight amount of pressure. Kagome panted and allowed Inuyasha to spread her legs apart. She was moaning with pleasure when he allowed his middle finger to become coated with her juices and slid it into place. Making a `come here' motion with his digit, he was able to hit a spot that made her cry out.
Inuyasha looked to her face and saw her staring at him with ecstasy in her eyes. Just then her neck snapped back and she let loose the most piercing sound Inuyasha had ever heard. I hurt his ears so bad he had to stop what he was doing to cover them.
“Inuyasha, it's not that loud.”
--------------------------------
Inuyasha woke to find that the noise he thought was Kagome having and orgasm was really an alarm clock. My but he was disappointed. The dream hadn't really gotten to the good stuff yet. Well, none of the good stuff for him anyway.
The voice was familiar but it had yet to dawn on him who it actually was. Inuyasha rolled on his side and slowly opened his squinted eyes. Sango had obvious not trusted him to get up on his own so she had taken it upon herself to be his personal wake up call.
Inuyasha groaned, rolled back over and covered his head with the white sheet he was using. He so wanted to go back to the wonderful dream. It seemed Sango had other plans for him. He heard her walk up to the side of the bed and the next thing he knew, he was flying through the air and hit the floor with a thud.
He struggled with the sheet that was now wrapped around his body in a strange way and swiftly turned to glare at Sango. She was standing near the door ready to run if need be.
“What the fuck bitch?!!! Who the hell do you think you are tossing my mattress like that with me on it?!”
“I think I'm the one who was sent to wake your sorry ass up. Now come on, we're all ready and waiting on you.”
Inuyasha scrunched up his face and ran his hands through his hair. Then he noticed who was missing. “Where's Kagome?”
“She's down stairs with Miroku and Myoga.”
“What the hell! Those two clowns can't keep her safe.”
Sango got a smug look on her face. “Oh yes they can. It seems our new friend Miroku was hiding something from us.”
Inuyasha was interested now. “What the hell are you talking about? What do you know that I should know?”
“I'll tell you on the plane if you'll get up and get dressed. We're all waiting on you. If you don't hurry, you'll miss breakfast.”
Inuyasha grumbled and picked himself up off the floor. “That's fine. I need to talk to you about something to. I'll be down soon.”
Sango chuckled and right before she closed the door she said, “And you may want to take care of little Inu before you come down.”
Inuyasha turned the prettiest shade of scarlet anyone could ever hope for.

InuGoddess715: He has won her trust and she is finally letting someone see the messed up side of her. She has her baggage but Inuyasha is going to help her with that. Eventually he'll get to see the extent of the damage and help her heal. The only problem he has is getting her to stop thinking so much and just go for it. Thanks for the great review and feed back.
