Recap of Last Chapter:
“I promise I’ll take care of it Inu-kun.” She smiled down at him as he shifted them on the ground so that he was laying flat on his back and Kagome was straddling his hips.
“You’d better after that stunt you just pulled.” He smirked at her before pulling her face down towards his for a kiss.

Chapter Thirteen: The Worst That Could Happen, Happens
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX xXxXx
The couple continued their kiss for many moments. Hands had been wandering, lips crashing, voices muffled and all of this brought one thing to Inuyasha’s mind. He had never wanted Kagome as much as he did at this moment. She was going to be his wife, he had asked and she had agreed. But would she allow him to... well, there was only one way to find out. Inuyasha broke the kiss and rested his forehead against hers. The two of them took a moment to catch their breath before he spoke.
“Kagome, do you want to...” He trailed off, his cheeks flushed, his mind began to reel. As many times as he’d had sex, now he was embarrassed about it. It was only because of Kagome, he knew that was the reason why. He was mildly shocked when Kagome nodded her head at him, and gave him a lustful gaze.
He looked around, they were in the middle of the shrine grounds, no place to have sex. He stood swiftly and threw Kagome across his shoulder before reaching down and picking up the blanket that they had been sitting on and walking in the direction of the forest behind the shrine.
“Where are you taking me Inu-kun?” Kagome asked as she got a very good view of her lovers butt.
“I don’t figure we should be having sex in the shrine courtyard.” He said like it was the most obvious thing in the world. Kagome blushed when he mentioned them having sex, but she knew that she wanted to, and she knew that he was right, shrine grounds were no place to be having sex.
As he walked the two of them into the forest, Kagome began to become even more aroused as Inuyasha put his hand up to where her waist was bent over his shoulder, he began to softly rub his thumb in circles on her inner thigh. Kagome had pulled his shirt up and was kissing his back softly as they walked on into the forest.
After Inuyasha had reached his destination he spread the blanket out on the ground and then laid Kagome (heh) out on it’s fuzzy surface. Kagome lied back on the blanket and waited for him to join her. Inuyasha reached over his shoulder and behind his back and pulled his shirt off, over his head before tossing it to the side. He then laid down next to Kagome on the blanket. She was laying on her back, and he on his side, he reached across her body with the arm that he wasn’t resting his weight on and began to patternly rub her cheek softly.
“Do you really wanna do this Kagome?” He asked her, he wanted to make sure, he’d die if she hated him for taking her into the woods to have his way with her.
“Of course Inu-kun. I’ve wanted this for a while.” She smiled, then blushed as she realized the words that had came out of her mouth. He chuckled softly at her blush before leaning down to her face and kissing her again.
Their kiss started out gently, but as his hand drifted down the front of her and rested on a breast that he cupped and then started to rub a thumb over her clothed nipple, the kiss became much more forceful, hungry. He shifted his weight so that his body was resting over hers, her hand began to roam over his exposed flesh, hot to the touch. It wasn’t long before Kagome’s shirt had joined his in a small heap at the side of the blanket.
Inuyasha’s lips traveled from where they were on her neck, down towards her chest. As he came closer to her covered breasts, he reached behind her while she lifted her back a little off the ground so that he could unhook her bra. It joined their shirts. Inuyasha’s head quickly dipped so that he could catch a nipple in his mouth. Kagome began to moan loudly with the pleasures that her body had never known. As he kissed one breast, his hand massaged and fondled the other, making sure that it would not feel left out.
After spending a while lavishing both breasts with his hot mouth and eager hands, he returned to her mouth to capture it in another passion filled lock. Kagome’s hands traveled down to the button and zipper in his pants and she undid the fastenings before she started to slide the jeans off of his lean body.
The next ten minutes was a blur of heated kisses and abandoned clothing. Before they knew it, the two of them lied before one another in nothing but the skin that the Kami’s had given them. Kagome blushed deeply and Inuyasha chuckled again before placing himself back overtop of her small frame.
“I love you Kagome.” He stated softly before he went about proving to her just how much he really did love her.
The two of them spent their evening affirming, reaffirming and then reaffirming again the love that the two of them had for each other. It was the most pleasurable day of Kagome’s life, and the most fulfilling of Inuyasha’s. He had found the woman who would love him like no other would, she agreed to be his wife, and she gave herself to him fully.
After confirming their love once more, Inuyasha cradled his love in his arms as the two of them lied in the dark, nothing but their love and body heat to keep them warm. The two of them began to drift off to sleep, their exhaustion from the days events, finally catching up to them.

The Next Day
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxX x
Kagome had awoken that morning in the arms of Inuyasha. The two of them had spent their morning together lounging around the shrine house, things a little more loving between the couple than before. Both were at a state of true bliss. Inuyasha had left in the early afternoon, going to his job since how he needed to generate some kind of income and Kagome had called Sango and Kagura to tell them what had happened, and that she hadn’t forgotten that they had owed her $200.
Kagura and Sango were now in Sango’s work room talking about the situation while Kagura was giving Sango some advice on her fashion show collection.
“I can’t believe that she actually did it!” Kagura stated while pulling a the hem of a garment.
“I know, it’s kinda hard to believe that our little Kagome is all grown up now. Getting married and everything!” Sango smiled.
“Yes, it seems as though you are the only one not getting married eh?” Kagura laughed gently as Sango’s smiled faded.
“I know. It seems as though we don’t really have time for one another right now with me working on this project. And now he’s spending all of his time with Jingi (the cat remember?), he won’t even come in and pester me anymore!” Sango said as if it really hurt her feelings.
“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of a cute little kitten.” Kagura laughed.
“I’m not jealous! I wish he’d just once come in here to bother me, for five minutes even!” Sango exclaimed which made Kagura laugh even more.
“I’m sure he will eventually.” Kagura stated. The truth of the matter was that Miroku was outside the door, listening to their conversation. He hadn’t meant to be spying on them or anything, it was just that he had came to see Sango but then he overheard them talking and he didn’t want to interrupt but he hadn’t had a chance to move from the door yet.
“I don’t know where I’m going to magic up $100 for Kagome and I certainly don’t have the time to be doing her housework right now!” Sango stated as an afterthought about the situation from before. When Miroku heard this he stayed where he was. “Why would Sango have to do all that for Kagome?”
“Yes well I really don’t have the time either, but it was a bet and therefor we must honor it.” Kagura said as Sango nodded her head in agreement. “A bet huh? I wonder what kind of bet?”
“I’m glad that we did it though, her and Inuyasha would never had gotten around to last night if we didn’t bet her that she had to.” Sango added. “Last night? Inuyasha said that he proposed and that they had sex last night, does that mean that the girls bet her to have sex with him? I need to find out more information before jumping to conclusions.”
“Yes, and she was cutting it short too! It’s only two months before her deadline. It’s a good thing it’s not hard to talk guys into having sex.” Kagura laughed. “Betting her that she couldn’t have sex with him in a year was the best bet we’ve ever made with someone. And now they’re getting married because of it!”
Miroku stood astonished. How could his sister and love of his live, make sure a horrible bet. Didn’t they know that if Inuyasha found out that Kagome had sex with him because of a bet that he would be heartbroken? “No, not if Miroku, when. It’s your job as his best friend to tell him the truth.” He told himself. It was with that notion that Miroku left from his spot on the other side of the door and he headed to meet up with Inuyasha at the office. He couldn’t let his friend get married to Kagome without knowing the truth. No matter how much it would hurt him.

At Inuyasha’s office
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx< br>
“Send him in.” Inuyasha huffed over the intercom to his incompetent secretary. He wondered for a moment why Miroku was visiting him in the middle of his work day, but he gladly excepted the distraction from his paper filing. He swore he must have a worse job than Sesshoumaru and his father put together.
The door opened slowly and in stepped Miroku. Miroku looked a little apprehensive while walking in the room but came in and sat down at the chair across from Inuyasha’s desk regardless.
“To what do I owe this pleasure, Miroku?” Inuyasha asked in his best business voice, trying to lighten the heaviness that Miroku had seemed to have brought into the room with him. Miroku didn’t laugh, his frown didn’t even falter the slightest bit.
“Inuyasha, I assure you, this meeting will not be pleasurable.” Miroku sighed. Inuyasha’s eyebrow all but disappeared into his hairline. He then began to panic, what if something was wrong with Kagome?
“Is it Kagome? Is she okay?” Inuyasha asked his friend, in a panicked tone.
“Yes it’s Kagome, but yes she’s okay.” Miroku answered with a straight face.
“Come on Miro, what’s going on.” Inuyasha questioned, leaning forward so that his arms were rested on his desk, his upper body towards Miroku in anticipation.
“I, I’m not really sure how to say this Inuyasha, I can’t put it delicately, so I’ll just say it.” Miroku stated, then gave his friend a sad look, which Inuyasha caught, before continuing. “After you told me of last nights events between you and Kagome I thought that this was of the upmost importance.”
“Just say it Miroku.” Inuyasha whispered, fearing the worst.
“It was brought to my attention today, that the girls did not think that Kagome and you would sleep together before your one year anniversary, and Kagome thought otherwise, so they made a bet. A bet with a large sum of money and six months worth of chores involved. And last night, when you and Kagome, well, needless to say, Kagome won the bet.” Inuyasha’s eyes showed the confusion that he was going through.
“This isn’t a joke is it Miroku?” Inuyasha stated more than questioned.
“No, I’m afraid that it’s not. I’m not saying that it’s her only reason for her relationship with you, as I don’t know when this bet was made, but it’s something that I think you should really talk to Kagome about.” Miroku added.
“Okay, I will. Thank you very much Miro.” Inuyasha sighed. He reached across his desk and hit the call button on his intercom system.
“Yes Mr. Satou.” The voice of the secretary rang in the room.
“I’m leaving for the day Aneko.” Inuyasha stated.
“Okay Mr. Satou.” The voice replied. Inuyasha rose from his seat, and Miroku followed suit.
“Thank you again, Miroku.” He stated with a sad smile.
“Anything for a friend Inuyasha.” Miroku replied, the same sad smile a mirror image on his own lips.
“I think I’ll go have that talk with her now. Just don’t tell the girls that we know anything okay?”
“Okay, I won’t.” Miroku stated as Inuyasha began to the leave room before Miroku even got two steps away from his chair. “Oh and Inuyasha, good luck.”
“Yeah, I’ll be needing it.” Inuyasha huffed before walking out the door, to find his fiancé, who had a lot of explaining to do.

At Higurashi Shrine
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx XxXx
Inuyasha walked into the shrine house without even knocking on the door, his manners had left him momentarily. When he walked into the house he found Kagome sitting on the couch watching t.v. with Buyo. She looked happy, too bad he was going to be ruining that very soon. When the door closed behind him, she was pulled out of the trance the t.v. had put her in and she turned toward him.
“Inu-kun, what are you doing here? You’re supposed to be at work.” She stated while starting to stand up from the couch to greet him. He raised up his hand to stop her.
“Sit back down Kagome, we have a lot to talk about.” He sighed softly. She gave him a strange look, but she did as he asked. Inuyasha walked over to the couch, Buyo hopping off and scampering away as he approached, and he took the seat the cat had previously occupied.
“What’s wrong Inuyasha?” She questioned him, he looked sad, hurt even. She couldn’t figure out what was going on.
“Just tell me the truth Kagome. Did you make a bet with Sango and Kagura about the two of us having sex?” He asked, just saying what he came to say. As the words left his mouth, a look of shock came on her face. What was she to do now? She couldn’t lie to him, he’d obviously been told about the bet.
“I... yes.” She said softly, so soft that he almost didn’t hear her. She looked down at the tattered fabric of the couch. She couldn’t bring herself to look in his eyes, now that she knew why they held hurt before, she knew that a few more painful emotions would be mixed in with them.
“Why?” He choked out. The great Inuyasha was almost in tears, it was true, it was a bet.
“I... I...I’m not sure.” She said with tears of her own threatening to fall, how could she have so carelessly hurt him. “They know that I always take bets, and they didn’t think that we would ever have sex so they bet me on it.”
“You’ve lied to me Kagome. I don’t know if I can believe you now.” He stated softly, she finally looked up at him, she could see the unshed tears hiding silently in his eyes. One of her own fell.
“You can Inuyasha, I promise.” Kagome said with her now sad eyes almost pleading with him.
“Yes well your word doesn’t mean very much to me right now!” He said to her, now he was becoming angry. He stood as he continued to speak. “As a matter of fact, how am I supposed to know that this wasn’t all a bet from the beginning. How do I know that you haven’t just been fucking with me this whole time?”
“I haven’t!” She said loudly, standing up and walking over to him. He turned his back to her and she reached out her hand and placed it on his shoulder. He shrugged her hand off.
“I can’t believe you anymore Kagome. You obviously don’t love me as much as I love you. We’re over.” He said as he walked out the door, never offering her a glance. Kagome sunk to the floor, tears streaming down her face. She loved him! Didn’t he understand?
Now she knew what the worst that could happen was.

“Send him in.” Inuyasha huffed over the intercom to his incompetent secretary. He wondered for a moment why Miroku was visiting him in the middle of his work day, but he gladly excepted the distraction from his paper filing. He swore he must have a worse job than Sesshoumaru and his father put together.

“Yes it’s Kagome, but yes she’s okay.” Miroku answered with a straight face.
“Come on Miro, what’s going on.” Inuyasha questioned, leaning forward so that his arms were rested on his desk, his upper body towards Miroku in anticipation.
“I, I’m not really sure how to say this Inuyasha, I can’t put it delicately, so I’ll just say it.” Miroku stated, then gave his friend a sad look, which Inuyasha caught, before continuing. “After you told me of last nights events between you and Kagome I thought that this was of the upmost importance.”

“This isn’t a joke is it Miroku?” Inuyasha stated more than questioned.
“No, I’m afraid that it’s not. I’m not saying that it’s her only reason for her relationship with you, as I don’t know when this bet was made, but it’s something that I think you should really talk to Kagome about.” Miroku added.
“Okay, I will. Thank you very much Miro.” Inuyasha sighed. He reached across his desk and hit the call button on his intercom system.
“Yes Mr. Satou.” The voice of the secretary rang in the room.
“I’m leaving for the day Aneko.” Inuyasha stated.
“Okay Mr. Satou.” The voice replied. Inuyasha rose from his seat, and Miroku followed suit.
“Thank you again, Miroku.” He stated with a sad smile.
“Anything for a friend Inuyasha.” Miroku replied, the same sad smile a mirror image on his own lips.
“I think I’ll go have that talk with her now. Just don’t tell the girls that we know anything okay?”
“Okay, I won’t.” Miroku stated as Inuyasha began to the leave room before Miroku even got two steps away from his chair. “Oh and Inuyasha, good luck.”
“Yeah, I’ll be needing it.” Inuyasha huffed before walking out the door, to find his fiancé, who had a lot of explaining to do.

At Higurashi Shrine
xXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXxXx XxXx
Inuyasha walked into the shrine house without even knocking on the door, his manners had left him momentarily. When he walked into the house he found Kagome sitting on the couch watching t.v. with Buyo. She looked happy, too bad he was going to be ruining that very soon. When the door closed behind him, she was pulled out of the trance the t.v. had put her in and she turned toward him.
“Inu-kun, what are you doing here? You’re supposed to be at work.” She stated while starting to stand up from the couch to greet him. He raised up his hand to stop her.
“Sit back down Kagome, we have a lot to talk about.” He sighed softly. She gave him a strange look, but she did as he asked. Inuyasha walked over to the couch, Buyo hopping off and scampering away as he approached, and he took the seat the cat had previously occupied.
“What’s wrong Inuyasha?” She questioned him, he looked sad, hurt even. She couldn’t figure out what was going on.
“Just tell me the truth Kagome. Did you make a bet with Sango and Kagura about the two of us having sex?” He asked, just saying what he came to say. As the words left his mouth, a look of shock came on her face. What was she to do now? She couldn’t lie to him, he’d obviously been told about the bet.
“I... yes.” She said softly, so soft that he almost didn’t hear her. She looked down at the tattered fabric of the couch. She couldn’t bring herself to look in his eyes, now that she knew why they held hurt before, she knew that a few more painful emotions would be mixed in with them.
“Why?” He choked out. The great Inuyasha was almost in tears, it was true, it was a bet.
“I... I...I’m not sure.” She said with tears of her own threatening to fall, how could she have so carelessly hurt him. “They know that I always take bets, and they didn’t think that we would ever have sex so they bet me on it.”
“You’ve lied to me Kagome. I don’t know if I can believe you now.” He stated softly, she finally looked up at him, she could see the unshed tears hiding silently in his eyes. One of her own fell.
“You can Inuyasha, I promise.” Kagome said with her now sad eyes almost pleading with him.
“Yes well your word doesn’t mean very much to me right now!” He said to her, now he was becoming angry. He stood as he continued to speak. “As a matter of fact, how am I supposed to know that this wasn’t all a bet from the beginning. How do I know that you haven’t just been fucking with me this whole time?”
“I haven’t!” She said loudly, standing up and walking over to him. He turned his back to her and she reached out her hand and placed it on his shoulder. He shrugged her hand off.
“I can’t believe you anymore Kagome. You obviously don’t love me as much as I love you. We’re over.” He said as he walked out the door, never offering her a glance. Kagome sunk to the floor, tears streaming down her face. She loved him! Didn’t he understand?
Now she knew what the worst that could happen was.

Authors Note: Not to fear, it’s not the end yet :D Drama, drama, drama! So I bet I’mma get a lot of flames for this chapter. Deal with it. You’d be hurt too if you were in his situation..

“Don’t tell me you’re jealous of a cute little kitten.” Kagura laughed----- But kittens are cute!
Kagura laughed. “Betting her that she couldn’t have sex with him in a year was the best bet we’ve ever made with someone. And now they’re getting married because of it!” ----- Don’t be so sure
“Sit back down Kagome, we have a lot to talk about.” He sighed softly----- Understatement of the year right there...
“I can’t believe you anymore Kagome. You obviously don’t love me as much as I love you. We’re over.” He said as he walked out the door, never offering her a glance. ----- Aren’t you supposed to take the ring back? Hrm... I guess he’s just worried about his broken heart. The ring can be gotten later!
