InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ I'm Sorry ❯ Lies ( Chapter 4 )

Ok minna! Here is the next chappy; remember, think joint chapter…joooooooint chapter…^^;

Disclaimer: what if I came up with this really great song called Cold, formed a band that I was manager of and owned and called it Crossfade, and then one of the band members got married and had a child named Rumiko Takahashi, and then that child proceeded to make a great anime called Inuyasha. THEN I WOULD OWN THE CHARACTERS…IN A SENSE! …alas, I don't…=( so I must continue to write…^^;

*~*~*

"Kagome, stop. You're not happy, so stop trying to look happy. You're only lying to yourself." She whirled around to see him leaning against the doorframe with a troubled look on his face.

"Lying, huh? That's something you would know a lot about, wouldn't you, Inuyasha? Always sneaking off to see Kikyou…and here you are telling me not to lie?! At least I lie about good things!" she spat, slamming her fist into his chest. He tensed at the contact, but did nothing to stop her. Not getting the reaction she wanted, Kagome continued to beat her fists into his firm chest as hard as she could, but soon slowed, weakened by everything that was going on inside of her. She choked back sobs as she clutched at his shirt, burying her face into the soft fabric. Inuyasha held her tightly, feeling her bare skin against his arms. He looked down at the young girl in his arms and kissed her forehead affectionately. So many things running through her head, she was so strong, so different from anyone else he had met before…

"Kagome, I'm sorry, I-I never knew…" he whispered, pulling her closer to him. He squeezed his eyes shut, "it's ok to cry, Kagome."

She shook her head against his chest and he pulled away, grasping her shoulders and looking down at her as she wiped her eyes of any stray tears. "No, it's not ok. I have to be strong; yo-people don't like it when I cry. It makes me weak, and I can't afford that." she wrapped her arms around her chest protectively, finally realizing she was only wearing her bra, and feeling very exposed.

He hadn't even realized she didn't have a shirt on, and was now glad he hadn't. Her cleavage became quite visible with her arms pushing on her chest like they were, and he swallowed hard, looking back to her face. 'I really screwed her up…damn, if it weren't for me…'

"Inuyasha, it's ok, I'll get over it…I always do…" she said quietly, looking back into the mirror, studying her reflection.

"About the lies," he started and Kagome turned her head to look back at him, but he averted his gaze. "I… I'm sorry. It's just Kikyou…and I…ano…"

"Shhh, I know. You love her, it's ok."

"No!" he exclaimed grabbing her shoulders roughly and making her look up at him. "What I felt for Kikyou wasn't love as much as it was respect. She was a miko, while I was just a hanyou. I know I said I loved her, but I know that's not really how I felt about her; there was always a barrier between us, I would never let my guard down around her…"

"…But you…" he loosened his grip on her shoulders, "you're different. I can barely last a day without seeing your smiling face. You are the reason that I can live with murder that I am, not Kikyou." His voice was steady and the words came straight from his heart. He was really letting his guard down this time; it took almost all of his control to keep his hands from shaking. The thought of her rejection made his heart chill and he tried hard to concentrate on the 'now'.

She just stood there staring at him, trying to take in all of his words. Realization hit her and she reached up to wrap her arms around his neck, forcing her lips to crush against his in a passionate kiss. After getting over the initial shock of her boldness, Inuyasha returned the kiss, moving his hands from her shoulders to the back of her neck, deepening the kiss. He ran his tongue over her teeth, begging for entrance. She opened her mouth and his tongue shot into it, eagerly tasting her. The hanyou backed the girl against the counter, running his claws down her sides lightly. He passed over the slash in her side and she tensed up, recoiling from his touch and breaking the kiss. She gazed at him with heavy eyelids, smugly aware of his labor breathing. Kagome squealed in surprise as she felt her feet being lifted from the floor and carried back to her room.

Inuyasha set her gently on her bed for the second time today, before picking up the chair he had accidentally pushed over and sitting down in it, facing the beautiful girl spread out on the bed. He gulped, his eyes slowly traveling down her body, taking in every delicious curve. He shook his head in an effort to keep his mind clean. Or as clean as it could be with Kagome shirtless in front of him. On a bed. Alone with him. Wait…

"Kagome, shouldn't your little brother burst in sometime soon?" Inuyasha asked, searching the room for his small admirer. She smiled, a real smile, and shook her head.

"They all went to Okinawa for a holiday."

Inuyasha gulped again, "so we're here all alone?"

"Yep."

"Er, for how long?"

"Four more days."

"Oh…"

"Why do you ask?"

"No reason…" he said, looking nervously at the door. 'This could turn out very differently than he thought it would…'

And I'm sorry about all the lies

Maybe in a different light

You could see me stand on my own again

Cause now I can see

You were the antidote that got me by

Something strong like a drug that got me high
