InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ I Need A Vacation ❯ What Was Left In The Closet ( Chapter 2 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

"Is this your honey moon then?" the man at the check-in desk inquired, filing his nails in an effeminate manner. It had been the fifth question he'd asked them in a row now.

"Um--yeah--whatever," Kagome returned quickly, feeling more and more uncomfortable under the judging gazes of the people around them in the hotel lobby. Though it was very westernized, there was no doubt to any of them, including Inuyasha, that the place was exceptionally lavish. Kagome fully appreciated the extent of how lucky they were to recieve such a great deal after looking over the normal prices of that Beverly Hills hotel. In America, however, a long haired teen in a bright red kimono is even more bizarre. Kagome eyed Inuyasha, wishing more than anything she'd bought him a more normal outfit.

"Interesting," he returned thoughtfully for the umpteenth time, it seemed he said this to every response Kagome and her mother had to his questions. He studied his offensively bright orange nails, fully engrossed in them. His hand fell with an irritating thud on the counter and everyone's eyes seemed to follow it, as if it were the most intruiging thing happening at the moment, which none of them could deny. A small girlie sigh escaped him and his eyes met the odd group and gazed at them through his brown hair streaked with hot pink bangs. His nails and hair clashed horribly with his sleek deep red uniform. "Sort of strange to bring your family with you on a honey moon--if it were me I would feel a bit uncomfortable knowing my mother was next door..." Suddenly it dawned on Kagome why her mother had made a swift hand motion and shot a warning glare at her after her response to the strange man's question.

"Well--um--" Kagome sputtered searching for some sort of excuse.

"It is unfortunate..." her mother sighed, "it turned out darling, dear Kagome--such a wonderful daughter suffers because of her kindness... Well my father paid for the trip shortly after the wedding--she didn't have the heart to tell him of his mistake. He had booked a trip for all four of us...so she let us come along--he insisted to send back pictures of the entire family having fun..." Her mother had sob in her voice and Kagome's eyes widened. "...such a nice man...but...he has ALZHEIMER'S!!" she gasped, pulling out a handkercheif and blowing her nose noisily. Kagome, Sota, and Inuyasha stared awestruck at her, while the man was surveying her with a pitying expression. "...I wanted Kagome and Inuyasha to be alone and everything--but of course Sota...such a young, beautiful boy--wouldn't understand that--and he kept NAGGING and--THERE'S SO MUCH PRESSURE FROM EVERYONE ON ME!"

"It's going to be alright..." the man said, nodding as if he understood, Kagome almost said something when her mother began to wail on the check-in desk. The man began to pat her back and Kagome was sure she heard Sota snicker but she was so thoroughly in shock, she couldn't be sure, "I wig out when things go wrong too, hun. You can't make everyone happy...but I'll help."

"You will?"

"Sure."

"How?" Kagome almost let out a huge sigh when she came to the realization of what her mother was doing.

"How about I give you and your son a room--it's against policy--that's as far as we can manage away from your daughter and son in law's room? ...the one I can think of that isn't booked is the presidential suite..."

"PRESIDENTIAL SUITE?!" every single one of them cried at once in exception of Inuyasha, who hadn't any idea as to what they were talking about. After everyone else in the lobby was staring at them, the Higurashi family all blushed visibly.

"So there you are " the man chimed in finalty, clasping his hands together in a feminine manner, "two suites for the price of basically one! Just don't say anything to anyone about this, though..."

"Mom! We get to stay in the PRESID--" Sota began excitedly.

"Shh!" the man hissed. "keep it down, please." There was a short silence and Kagome was beside herself, since when did her mother swindle people? "So now...Mr. and Mrs...um...Hig...oo...ray...shy?"

"Higurashi," Kagome and her mother said similtunaeously without much thought. But instantly afterward Kagome's face flushed a bright crimson.

"Mr...and..Mrs?" she croaked quietly, still not used to the idea.

"Yes, you two love birds--I can see how you two still long for each other--it's clear in your eyes! It's obvious you two are DEEPLY in love!" He sighed deeply, gazing out into space.

"WHAT DO YOU MEAN?" Inuyasha bellowed, Kagome and her mother motioned for him to be quiet.

"Hmm? Did you say something?" the man inquired, hands still clasped under his chin dreamily, as he snapped out of his daze. There was an awkward silence where Kagome and her mother were glaring intently at Inuyasha who was struggling to regain his composure. "Well, anyway, here are your room keys and there will be two men coming soon to carry your things to your rooms." He handed Kagome's mother and Kagome each a key when two bell boys then appeared as if from no where and gladly took the many things Kagome and her mother had brought, that Inuyasha was carrying. Inuyasha glared at the both of them, still in quite a bad mood, and one of the men cowered slightly when he snarled at him.

"Alright...so I'm bunking with you--right mom?" Kagome inquired as they briskly walked after the men toward the elivators.

"Na-ah!" Sota cried loudly, "I wanna be in the presidential suite with mom!"

"Whatever--you'll be with Inuyasha in the honey moon suite!" Kagome argued.

"No way--what would THAT look like?" Sota demanded, looking horrified at the idea. There was short silence as Kagome pondered over it, and she broke into laughter quickly.

"That WOULD be weird--hillarious!" she giggled, Sota gave her an extremely dirty look.

"Yes, what WOULD they think? Not at all good..." Kagome's mother agreed.

"WHAT?" Kagome exclaimed having an expression much like Sota's when she thought of the prospect of people's assumptions if she were in the suite with Inuyasha.

"Well, obviously I can't go with you--say the hotel employee has to contact us with something if its me and you at the honeymoon suite--or Sota and Inuyasha at the presidential or vice versa--either way it will seem very suspcious, I don't like lying that much, as it is." A scornful laugh escaped Kagome when she thought about her mother's preformance not too long ago at the check-in desk. Inuyasha seemed very lost and hadn't said much at all since they family began disussing hotel arrangments, but finally he grasped one thing.

"Well--damn Kagome, why are you so weird about it? I mean, we usual camp out together anyway, it's not like it matters--besides I have to protect you." Kagome snarled under her breath and clenched her fists tightly at her sides.

"Can you be quiet?" she inquried dangerously. "Do you have the slightest CLUE as to what people are supposed DO in that suite, and what they'll THINK if WE'RE in there?" Apparently he didn't.

"I have to protect you," he returned stone-like, as if it was a law chisled in granite.

"ERRAGH! There are no DEMONS in present day AMERICA!" Kagome shouted standing on her very tip-toes as if attempting to be taller than Inuyasha as she leaned in screaming at his face. Inuyasha opened his mouth to protest, but Kagome never knew what he was going to say.

"Are you ready, ma'am?" a voice inquired at Kagome's ear causing her to jump. Kagome turned looking a little crazed when she saw it was only the man carrying her things.

"Oh...um, yeah," she returned sounding somewhat relieved.

"Alright sir, ma'am, just follow me," the man instructed. Inuyasha followed looking somewhat mechanical and as if he didn't have anything better to do. Kagome grabbed the back of his shirt hastily.

"Wait we haven't decided--"

"Fuck it, I'm not staying with your mom OR your brother! If people are going to think I'm having sex with somebody, it damn well is not going to be your nine your old brother or your mom!" Inuyasha hissed, and Kagome was so surprised she let him go. So he DID understand. But that wasn't helping anything.

"WHAT?" she demanded, but he walked on as if he didn't even hear her. She stomped after him. "WHAT?"

"What, what?" Inuyasha asked, looking smug as he kept walking, the man was trying not to stare back at them, but he was failing dismally. The two stopped for a moment. Inuyasha was looking at Kagome boredly, as if he knew very well Kagome wouldn't say what she wanted, and Kagome was fuming badly. At that instant she realized usually Inuyasha was in the position she was, just growling and unable to say what he wanted, and she was uniformly on the other side, with the calm expression, watching him writhe like a worm on a hook. Now she was the worm. After a long silence Inuaysha finally turned and continued following after the man who had only slowed up slightly as the event of losing the very loud and strange couple looked very attractive at the moment.

Unfortunately for the bell boy, the two managed to catch up just before the elevator closed behind him and they were already involved in a yelling match. He sighed and rolled his eyes secretly, his face covered by the large-sized mauve colored suit case in his hands. "I doubt people would think that anyway!" Kagome bellowed, causing an old lady to gasp and look very offended as she and Inuyasha entered.

"Whatever, either way I have to protect you, and we're SUPPOSED to be married, you know!" Kagome's mouth opened and closed several times, but no sound came. She couldn't say they weren't married, the bell boy had probably heard to much already. Her face was reddening in rage and embarrassment combined and she was thoroughly threatening though she was silent. Finally she sighed, closing her eyes and trying to forget her extreme embarassment and frustration.

"You're right, I'm sorry," she returned, bitterness lining her tone somewhat subtly.

"Very cute that he feels the need to protect you," the old lady put in with a smile. Kagome said nothing and only sighed, pouting slightly.

"See, she thinks it's cute," Inuyasha gloated, leaning in slightly as he said it quietly to Kagome.

"Good, why don't you marry HER," Kagome grunted.

"Yeah, whatever."

"Whatever yourself, see if I'll wear that nightie NOW!" Kagome said, hardly able to contain herself, her face was somewhat screwy as she had the strong urge to burst into laughter. Inuyasha was beside himself with extreme vexation.

"Oh my," the lady said in surprise. Though Kagome was thoroughly enjoying how much blushing she'd caused Inuyasha, she felt her own face begin to heat up at the lady's reaction. "I remember when I wore a nightie for my husband!" she sighed. Inuyasha looked away from the aged woman, his face en-scripted with what looked like a persistant need to vomit. Kagome was sure he had inadvertantly visualized the woman in something somewhat more revealing than her current attire.

"WELL," Kagome returned very over conversationally, "it seems my husband won't be enjoying the same privilage." Inuyasha's mouth dropped and Kagome was almost taken aback by the extremity of his reaction.

"Well OBVIOUSLY!" he exclaimed as if he was thoroughly scandalized, "Dammit why the hell would I see HER in a nightie!?" he finished, pointing at the old woman who also looked taken aback.

"I didn't mean HER!" Kagome cried in reply. "I mean me," she said with a smirk on her face watching Inuyasha for the inevitable blushing that would line his face. There was a short pause when Kagome almost wished she could take back what she had said when Inuyasha looked as if he was on the very brink of exploding. Only a few seconds later, it came.

"WHAT? PRIVILAGE? Like I'd want to see YOU in it!" Inuyasha bellowed, looking rabid with anger. Kagome couldn't help shaking her head, did he have to be SO dense sometimes? A husband woudn't say that, did he know ANYTHING of incognito? She only crossed her arms, happy to feel she'd regained her usual cool in these sort of arguments that Inuyasha normally had the inability to achieve. She rolled her eyes very exaggeratedly as the elevator doors finally opened.

"Please," she said, to Inuyasha's horror unbuttoning the first buttons in her white blouse giving him a clear view of the top of her bra and her cleavage. Oddly enough, she felt as if she wasn't herself at the moment, and was some other person watching a girl just like her unbuttoning their pearl white shirt that was embroidered with a few pink roses stitched on, "you know that's the furthest thing from the truth, I mean, why did you marry me, anyway?" They eyes in Inuyasha's head appeared as if they were in danger of falling out. No one reminded the two that the elevator had come to a stop. The old woman seemed entirely frozen to the spot and stunned ever since Inuyasha had shouted and pointed her way and her little wrinkled mouth seemed to fall open more and more. The bell boy seemed almost as surprised and they weren't the only two.

Kagome found she also had gained no ablity to speak or move and her fingers that still clutched the fourth button on her blouse, which remained buttoned. She wasn't stunned just at herself, but also at the unusual mannerisms Inuyasha was sporting. He went as rigid as a board, and seemed as if he also had gained inmobility. His eyes couldn't grow bigger than they were and they didn't seem as if they'd tear away from Kagome's somewhat revealed chest. And was that...drool at the corner of his mouth? It was as if someone, somewhere had hit a pause button on all of them. Yet when the doors began closing, the old woman put out her walking stick causing them to open again, and somehow, that caused movement to return. Everyone's eyes were on Inuyasha. He looked nervously at each other them, and tried his hardest to avoid eye contact with Kagome.

"It's not as if I'm attracted or anything," Inuyasha declared casually, turning to the elevator exit. "Let's just get out of here." It seemed like a good plan, only he managed to walk right into the wall next to the doorway instead, still somewhat disoriented by what had just happened. Somehow, he was becoming extremely aware of how much a certain unmentionable area was acting up, without a doubt it was due to Kagome's breasts unable to leave his mind. He quickly turned to the three of them, who were still staring. "I--I'm NOT!" he insisted at their unencouraging stares, turning to walk again and only hitting the wall once more. He growled loudly and finally managed to walk out of the elevator.

Kagome finally managed to move, putting her foot out before the elevator closed all the way, and she cast a bashful look at the bell boy and old woman. "Um--sorry about that...you'll still show us to our room, won't you?" Kagome asked the man.

"...um...yeah, sure," the man returned, glancing first at her cleavage, then her face. Kagome laughed anxiously, missing the gawking that took place right under her nose, and leaving, the bell boy not far behind. When she got out, she remember her blouse and quickly set to buttoning it up, just at the unfortunate moment Inuyasha decided to re-tie his belt and a man walked by.

"In the elevator? Naughty, naughty," he chimed quickly as he strode by. Kagome buttoned more quickly looking mortified.

"Damn, is sex ALL anyone thinks about here, fuckers," Inuyasha grumbled, casting a glance at Kagome's chest. He almost failed to hide the great disapointment that they were now thoroughly covered by her blouse.


Inuyasha and Kagome's jaws dropped open in unison just when the door to the honey moon suite swung open. What was so awe-inspiring about it? For one thing, it was enormous, the sheer size was incredible; and another, it was so beautiful and luxurious Kagome held back the strong urge to squeal with excitement and run up to every pretty thing screaming with glee (though she was sure the moment the man left she would set about doing so); and the view--oh the view--was astounding! Though basically all that could be seen was the city, it glittered in its lights like a velvlet mass decorated in jewels. The faint appearence of the stars in all the light pollution was a nice touch, as Kagome was sure it was fairly rare, while in this city it was probably most common to be capable or seeing not one whatsoever.

"Enjoy your stay," the man chimed, his eyes falling to an area somewhat lower than Kagome's face again. Inuyasha growled under his breath and slammed the door in the man's face, apparently the only one who had noticed that he was leering. Kagome, however, skipped over to the other end of the room, blissfully unaware of any perversion or door slamming that had occured in the near past. "Oh my god look at this!" she ran over to another end of the room, "and look at THIS!" Inuyasha slowly walked over to a small table under a rather large mirror framed in gold on the wall, puzzling over that for a moment. He then noticed a small remote on the table and picked it up as he examined it, sniffing it and catching a myriad of scents.

"Huh...weird, this looks like the thing-y that controlled the box at Kagome's house..." he pushed a random button, jumping back in alarm when the mirror slid to the side and a small black refrigerator was revealed. "The FOOD thing-y!" Inuyasha exclaimed in awe.

"Inuyasha?" Kagome inquired in confusion, walking toward him, "Oh!" she brightened, "she you found the 'frige--and the remote to almost all the stuff...so cool! Everything's automated!" She snatched the remote from him, but Inuyasha seemed thoroughly unaware of anything except the food inside the "food thing-y".

"Don't eat any of that," Kagoem put in carelessly, as she skipped off with the controller.

"Why?" Inuyasha whined.

"Because it's all EXTREMELY expensive, don't have mom getting all these great deals in vain! One coke and that could spell doom!" Kagome called, pushing a blue button under the small text that read "faucet". "Cool! it turns the SINK on!" Inuyasha walked over in a huff, feeling his stomach clench with hunger. Her frowned at Kagome, who was laughing as she turned the faucet on and off, cold water and hot water, over and over with the remote. Inuyasha was intent on revenge. He quickly pulled the remote from her grasp and dashed off pressing other buttons. One of the first ones he pressed caused the large entertainment center to open and a wide screen television to reveal itself.

"Whoa...it's a BOX like yours at home..." Inuyasha whispered in pure awe. He slowly walked to the screen touching it as if to make sure it was real, "it's so...BIG..." Kagome walked up to him, now pouting as he was before.

"God, no matter WHAT time period, I swear, men and their big screened TVs..."

"Whoa...how to turn it on?" He pressed a whole bunch of random buttons causing the blimnds to open and close, random drawers in a dresser to open, the mattress of the nearby bed to recline and a window or two to open but finally the television turned on. Kagome was still a little panic striken by all the random things moving and opening and closing when she finally turned to see the television after Inuyasha screamed in surprise. A look of horror came to her face as well when she beheld what Inuyasha had. "What the fuck IS this?" Inuyasha demanded, stepping back from the television.

"I-I-It must be one of those movies you can order--the last people m-must have left it on!" Kagome exclaimed.

"Damn movies! UGH! Make it stop! It's--DISGUSTING!" Inuyasha cried, eyeing the pornographic scene unfolding before him with repulsion.

"What button did you push?" Kagome demanded, tearing her eyes away from the screen.

"I--I--don't fucking know!" Inuyasha returned in alarm, again pushing random buttons and fumbling the controller in his nervous hands, catching and tossing it again and causing many things in the room to turn on and move.

"TURN IT OFF!!" Kagome shouted, as both Inuyasha and she looked to see more than one exposed breast depicted before them.

"I--can't find the button!"

"ARRRRGH!!" Kagome dashed up to the television and searched for the power button, "God--no, it's broken! What IS this? Inuyasha have you found--" she looked up to see the hanyou perfectly still, gazing up at the screen, his mouth a-gape.

"Shh!" he said distractedly. Kagome eyed him menacingly.

"EW YOU PERVERT!! SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT SIT!!!" Inuyasha smashed into the ground and screamed in pain as each utterance of the words caused him to slam into the ground further. For a split second Kagome wondered what the people next door were thinking hearing the adult movie, Inuyasha and her screaming, and the sound of him slamming repetitvely into the ground, but drove the pondering away as she snatched the conrtoller from Inuyasha. She looked up at the screen intent to turn it off or change the channel no matter what when what looked like a tangled mass of naked flesh rolled over revealing a rather attractive man.

"H...he's hot..." Kagome murmured, begin to lose her head. Inuyasha forgoet his pain immediately and jumped to his feet, fire in his eyes.

"WHAT?!" Inuyasha exclaimed, now getting the remote back into his possession and pushing every button frantically. He soon succeeded in shutting the television off and he sighed, sitting on the bed not far behind him with relief. "Wow...this is so...comfortable..." he lay down on the bed closing his eyes, suddenly feeling very inclined to sleep.

"Hey! I'LL be sleeping on the bed! You can sleep on the wall like always!" Kagome cried, trying her best to pull Inuyasha off remembering how quickly he had fallen alseep in the air port.

"But it's so nice...sleep on the um...couch isn't it called? Over there..." Inuyasha argued, lazilly pointing to the red couch nearby. Kagome looked breifly at it, then her appearence became very vexed and continued her struggle to pull Inuyasha off the bed. "Can you cut it out, I'm trying to sleep..." Inuyasha mumbled, fighting Kagome drowsily.

"Why do you have to so difficult?" Kagome snarled, standing up and walking away in a huff. Inuyasha smiled peacefully and he sat up and pulled the covers up and got underneath them. Kagome came back within a few moments wearing pink pajamas that were embroidered with cats. "Off the bed now!" she shouted, waking Inuyasha from the short nap he had been having. He yawned and propped himself up on his elbows, looking at her with half-open eyes. "Why do you have to be so difficult?" she demanded again, thyis time through gritted teeth.,

"Well why do you have to be so pretty? You just do, so I just have to be so difficult..." Inuyasha murmured sleepily, plopping onto his face as he spoke making him hard for Kagome to hear, but she knew one thing. He said she was pretty.

"What?" she asked as if she was sure she heard wrong, but she knew what he had said. Maybe he wasn't sane at the moment. Yes, perhaps it was possible Inuyasha thought she was pretty, but would he ever say something like that? Never! She walked up to him cautiously, unsure if it was really him that had just crawled under the covers of that bed and not some imposter. She stopped directly to his left, the left of the bed and studyed his sleeping form carefully which was hidden by the blanket . "What did you say?"

"Hmm...don't know..." his voice came form under the blanket and Kagome almsot jumped when his hand and arm emerged from underneath. "Where are you?" he inquired, and Kagome jolted when he touched her arm and began touching her face, shoulder, and neck as if trying to figure if she was there. "There you are..." he murmured.

She sighed angrily. "Yeah, here I am, and what did you--" but she stopped, entirely unsure of any words at all, unsure of anything, for at that instant his fingers placed themselves where really shouldn't have. At first Kagome could have considered that it was a mistake, that he touched her breast, he couldn't see her after all, but he didn't move his hand. On the contrary, it didn't seem he had any intention of doing so, and instead he grasped it as if to make sure he could keep hold. Why didn't she beat him to a bloody pulp? Well, she wondered the very same as she stood there perefectly dumbfounded, as his fingers lingered on her bosom and began feeling up and down without and hesitance.

Finally Kagome snapped out of it, and without any doubt in her mind this act was without accident, she pulled away quickly and thrust her arm forward smacking Inuyasha's hand, rather cruelly. His arm fell away from her further and plopped down lazily over the side of the bed. "Wh-wh-wh-wh--" she sputtered, looking at Inuyasha with a mixture of surprise, offense, and anxiety. There was an unbeleivable silence where Kagome began to consider the options that maybe Inuyasha had fallen asleep, or maybe what had "happened" never had and it had all been her imagination.

"I wanted...wanted to know...sorry..." Inuyasha said quietly out of the bizarre silence.

"Know what?" Kagome demanded still looking offended and shocked. It didn't appear he was going to answer it was as if he was in another world, one of his own.

"...you'd never wear it would you?" Kagome was beginnign to get cross, why was he being so cryptic? His voice was hoarse and it almost sounded as if he spoke in his sleep, it lacked almost all energy. His words were somewhat slow as if he had to think a while before saying them, but they hardly made any sense anyway.

"Wear what?" she growled.

"...there was this...nightie in the closet over there...the people here before must have left it...you'd never wear it..."

"Then why are you mentioning it?"

"I don't know."

"What, you want me to, or something?!"

"Sure."

"What?"

"Sure...you're look...nice in it..."

"...what...what are you saying, anyway?"

"What do you mean?"

"What are you asking me to do?"

"Nothing."

"Nothing?" Kagome sure if she believed him, and she was a little creeped out, he wasn't acting like his usual self, not at all, "it seems to me like you want me to...to..."

"To what?"

"I don't know!"

"I don't know either." Kagome was silent fuming in her frustration, why, all of a sudden did he make absolutely no sense, right when she couldn't say anything right, either. And why was he acting as if he...

"...do you want me to wear the stupid thing?"

"We already went over this."

"YEAH BUT ARE YOU ASKING ME TO?"

"Why does it matter? You won't wear it anyway." Kagome just stood there staring unable to say or do anything for a few moments and anothing silence settled in around them.

"Why are you acting like this?"

"Like what?"

"Like...YOU KNOW WHAT I MEAN!"

"Don't think I do...why would I ask then?"

"Because you want me to say it."

"Say what?"

"Never mind."

"Ok, good night." There was another moment of perfect silence Kagome was standing their perfectly still like an enraged crazy about to entirely lose it.

"Is that ALL? You're just going to drop it?"

"Drop what?"

"STOP IT!"

"Stop what?"

"Why are you being--"

"Annoying?"

"Yes, but also you're being--"

"Punctual?"

"Punctual?" What the hell? Kagome thought.

"I don't know."

"You're being..."

"Lame?"

"Kind of."

"Maybe it's because I want something."

"You do?"

"Yeah."

"What?"

"You."

"Really?" Kagome asked breathlessly gazing down at the lump in the bed that was Inuyahsa. She slowly approached it and knelt down by him. "How bad?"

"Really bad." Kagome tediously pulled the covers down from over his head and as she did his dog ears being tugged down bythe covers being pulled over it, popped up irresistibly from underneath.

"More than...more than..."

"What?"

"Kikyo?" His face was thoughftul and unreadable, but Kagome was simply glad to be able to see it, and that he had to at least think and wasn't decided on Kikyo.

"...will you wear the nightie if I say yes?" Kagome glared at him.

"Not funny." Inuyasha chuckled.

"Guess not..." There was a short pause and Kagome felt her heart pounding at the speed of light, she wasn't sure about anything, but there was one action she for some reason found herself doing. One message she knew that had gone from her brain to her body and she hadn't the faintest idea why. Before she could fully reason her actions or why she felt the sudden impulse to do it, she was at her feet, her back was now turned to Inuyasha. And she was walking away. Inuaysha sat up, the covers dribbling off him and folding underneath his upper body which was leaned froward. There was an apparent fear residing in his fire-colored eyes. Feeling far more awake than before, he began to yearn that he had never spoke of those once deeply hidden emotions and desires. He had held them back for so long, some probably figured that it was without reason, something to do with his child hood, but really, it was because of a staggaring fear. A fear this would happen. That Kagome would leave him, all alone, either out of the belief he could never only love her and not Kikyo or because she was afraid, frightened of what would happen if she opened up and put herself in such a vulnerable state where she was entirely in Inuyasha's hands and it would be up to him not to break her heart.

His eyes closed tightly and he visualized all sorts of things, some painful and some wonderful to behold. Some of Kagome walking out that hotel door, some of her stopping short, running back to him, arms opened wide and taking him in. He shivered, he could almost feel her around him in reality, but when he flickered his eye lids a little he saw she was several feet away. He closed them again. He thought of more pleasent things, Kagome kissing his lips, and he recalled the smell of her hair. When she embraced him and kissed him he felt arousal that he couldn't ignore almost being able to imagine the smell of her attraction, and her body against his. He was trying his best to avoid the images that were a sharp blow to his heart, maybe these more positive pictures would lessen the pain if she truely was leaving him... Even if she wasn't leaving him for good...would that be more agonizing? Moments around her when both knew they couldn't be...his heart began to ache again...

He heard a strange sound and his ears pricked, he knew what she was doing suddenly, and any weight on his heart that had preiviously felt like lead had dimished, his heart was pounding his body was shaking. He felt many parts of his body numb one part was especially noticable, however, and he almost couldn't stand it. He thought he should keep his eyes closed, then, maybe he could contain himself a little better. Then, maybe it would be easier, then, if he was wrong, everything might still be alright, if he acted to suddenly and his assumption was incorrect...well, he couldn't think of anything worse. After the sound he only heard silence. It was torture. He couldn't tell any longer if she had changed her mind or if he had only been fooling himself. But he HAD to keep his eyes closed...

Suddenly after a rusltle, his eyes shot open unexpectedly before he could stop them. He realized then that out of his nervousness he didn't noticed that the light had been turned out, and he squinted through the darkness only to see a figure before him. He felt his body getting very hot, the anticpation running through his veins and the whole scene unfolding as if in slow motion which was entirely unbearable. He saw the figure before him standing very still, and that it was holding something. He of course knew who it was, who else could be, clutching the red lacy fabric in her hands... He knew that it would be best to stay put hold on for a few moments and those moments...could mean everything... But it was getting more and more difficult, the more he stared at her sillhoette and smelled the scent of sweat radiating off her that was a mixture of persperation from nervousness and arousal and felt all his desires bubbling up inside him so much he couldn't keep them down much longer.

Kagome eyed the clothing in her hands as if she had never seen it before and everything she had done had been done when she was in a trance and now she had snapped out of the trance. She looked over at Inuyasha whose bright, golden eyes illuminated through the dark and that was mainly all she could see of him. His body was fairly still, but she could hear him breathing heavily and could see the droplets of sweat hanging on his neck as they shimmered in the light from outside. Her legs felt as if they couldn't support her, as if they weren't even her own, she felt as if her body wasn't her own, yet her inner thoughts and feelings all rang true with the strong sexual passion her body felt. Her brown eyes flew to the little pile of lace and satin in her hands, lying there and extending off the edge of her hands swinging back and forth slightly in the breezless room as if taunting her. It was a little symbol of so many things it seemed that she must use it--that it had been provided out of sheer destiny. She grasped it with on hand and let go of the other, with her free hand she began to pull off her underwear, it was just at the brink of being pulled over her rear and she knew it would fall--drop all the way to the floor with only one slight prod of her fingers... She pushed it and it fell, such a light flimsy thing but it seemed to land in such a resounding manner as if it were so heavy. She moved the red clothing between her middle finger and ring finger using her index finger and thunb to assist her other hand in removing her bra when she realized Inuyasha had moved.

Her fingers which had set about unlatching her bra came to a quick halt and she stood very still her breaths weezing and deep. She kept her eyes to the floor unable to look up at him, she felt such extreme anxiety fainting might have been pausible. Everything was spinning around her, all the visible objects in that dark room, were now blotchy blurs. One form could be seen with startling focus. Him. His body was being pulled to her as if by her attraction that as intoxicating to him, Kagome felt...when she had removed her clothes he wasn't able to stop himself. But somehow she needed him to be patient just a little longer...

He approached her, his speed increasing the closer he got as if she was a cyclone sucking him in. Her fingers finally sprung to life nervously fumbling with the latch of her bra. Before she even realized his hands were on her waist. Tediously, she tilted her head up to look up into his auburn eyes that wer staring down at her, He was leaning in, she only placed out a finger which she put on his chest. "Stop a moment..." she whispered, looking into him with her eyes that seemed fathoms deep to him. He shut his eyes trying with all his will power to restrain himself, but his passion was exploding, it was unthinkable, he couldn't control the raging fire that would never burn out. His hands began to move up her body and Kagome shuddered, take in a staggering breath as she shut her own eyes. She wanted him to wait...but if he began she was unable to stop him. There was something wrong, a horrible pain at the base of Inuaysha's stomach, his hands stopped moving and he slowly took them off her sweaty skin.

"I'm sorry...I didn't think about it...please don't...do anything you don't want to..." he said pitifully, a deep sadness clear in his eyes even if he managed a smile on his face as he looked up from the floor at her. He couldn't put pressure on someone who mattered so much to him...he couldn't have her do this...if it was something she wasn't ready for--he'd never forgive himself. Kagome didn't reply. She only had managed to remove her bra and was now stretching her arms upward, now that she had placed the nightie on them. She struggled to get it on and began to squirm, she felt Inuyasha come nearer to her and his hands pulled down on it, causing it to finally come onto her as it was supposed to.

"I wanted you to see me in this...you seemed like you really wanted to..." Inuyasha hardly heard what she had said he was mesmerized by her appearence. It had been pulled over her head, so Kagome had to place her hands on the inside of her hair and push it outward in order for it flow freely outside the clothing but after she did so Inuyasha was bedazzled. Her hair was frizzy because of the differing weather and humidty, but he didn't care. The way it flowed onto the red lace and it happazardly streamed in different directions...the way the left strap of the night dress hung over her left arm awkwardly and exposed some of her left breast. Some of the lace buldged out as it hadn't been pulled down thoroughly and it failed to come down as far as it could have, revealing some of Kagome's private area and Inuyasha was almost stunned at himself for not promptly knocking Kagome on the floor and thoroughly exploring what he only partially saw, but perhaps it was only because he was still getting over how amazing she looked. Her hair also covered her right eye and was thrown over to the right oddly as the nightie had been pulled over her head making her self seeme even more dangerously sexy than ever to Inuyasha.

Kagome figeted, she saw clearly in the mirror how thoroughly messed up her hair was and that the nightie had not been put on right. "Oh...give me a second...it's not on right..."

"No, it's perfect," Inuyasha breathed wrapping his arms around just before she was about to pull the strap of the dress on entirely. He kissed her mouth lightly at first causing Kagome to latch onto him longingly for more and he gladly pressed against her tightly opening his mouth so it encompassed hers and grinding his hips into her as he pulled her in, sucking all the breath she had out of her and returning it with tongue. His hands slinked from her back to her waist and up all around in a circular motion running over her breasts and fingering them deliciously, but quickly and lightly so that Kagome broke away from this breathing desperately, her air caught up in a moan but more one as a plea for more. He had only run his hands over the lace. Now, he prepared to delve under it. He was going to run his fingers all over her body but they only stopped at the pelvis, and he got caught up with his newest obsession, exploring her as he had envisioned. Her moaning only encouraged him, but her body was quickly going limp and she felt she had no control making slight jerking movements the more he searched her in that area, kissing her lightly and reassuringly with only the tips of his lips. She couldn't find the strength to stand investing all herself in him, and when she began to fall he caught her in his arms and fell with her but he made sure to cradle her carefully so she wasn't harmed.

Kagome clawed her hands through his hair, struggling to bring herself up and clung on to him, as he sat up slightly, dragging his hands up her thighs so slowly it made her shiver, and her reached the edge of the nightie, which was now scrunched up against him, his hands dove under the light fabric and stuck slighty because of the sweat clinging to her soft skin. "You can do that other thing again...when you touched me..." she couldn't say it straight out, her face going scarlet. A chuckle escaped him, it was adorable how she blushed still. "And I can do this..." she trailed off, wrapping her arms around his back and pulling herself upright, and in, she leaned closer and closer to him, taking his upper robe off and his under one. She leaned in until her nose touched his warm, skin which made her cold nose wiggle as she touched her chin to his flesh and he began to lay back alowing her tongue to come in contact with his skin. As he lay back farther her tongue traveled more southward, and she gripped the sides of his crimson pants and began to pull on them. Her tongue continued its tantilizingly slow journey downward and Inuyasha was almost beside himself with anticipation and pleasure.

"Oh...Kagome..." She scooted closer to him, her breast nudging his skin and her shoulder tickling the side of his leg as she brought his pants down. When her tongue slid down and shifted quickly to the right Inuyasha let out a sharp gasp at the sudden switch and he could hardly breathe. When her lips and tongue skittered and halted and ran up and down the crease leg just before it found it's way to... "Kagome!" He screamed and his knees snapped in closing in on her shoulders tightly, his hands grasping her hair desperatly as he moaned and moaned the more she kissed and caressed with her tongue. He moved himself downward and her lips were removed from his skin, his legs slid against her sides and she was shivering again, yet drenched in sweat. His finger tips were a conforting reminder how she had softened the untamable beast that he had once been, and he kissed her lips once again with such vigor, but with enticing gentleness that she knew he's always hold her like she was as precious and fragile as glass. He traced almost ever inch of her under that red lace that never stood as a shield but perhaps a beckoning call for him to travel beneath.

She could feel the slithering irresistable stroke of his fingers moving upward, everything was so gradual and slothful...how his hands moved about her and when he leaned ever so slightly...every single thing, even his whispers were so incredibly slow, "You're so beautiful..." Overcome with anticipation and the strange foreign feeling of absolute safety in his arms she could have done almost anything at the moment, scream, grasp onto him with all her power, she was shaking so badly. When his hands fell onto her breasts and she felt a strange sense of relief but at the same time, her mind journeyed to the thought that this was simply the beginning... Her skin began to feel more and more heated, she felt her face flushing, she clutched onto Inuyasha. Like creeping vines, with the most careful and sensual caress, flowering over her, he discover the outlines...the centers...every part of her bosoms, and closed his eyes as she did shaking slightly when his fingers dove against her pearly skin which shown in the slight moonlight that drifted in from the window, the red lace creating a strange, net light shadow on it, his fingers nuzzling against the outlines and curving around them, but his palms tediously surrounded her.

Her mind suddenly stuck against the thought--it seemed like this should be happening--so profound, but now that the thought came it felt a little strange how this had began...when he spoke those words to her that were so cryptic and muddled in riddles...why had he? So suddenly he had confessed so many things...perhaps without meaning to--perhaps mostly with his eyes and his actions--he revealed his deepest desires and his strong attraction to and yearning for her. But her thoughts were interupted and it was almost like having a cold bucket of ice water poured on her when his lips blanketed her left nipple, and soon they began to kiss, slide, trace over her breasts and in-between. She couldn't restrain her moans when he pressed harder and harder and his mouth latched on with a powerful grip sucking her skin--creating a sentilating sensation as he sluggishly rippled his lips in open and closed, while she could feel the current of his fingers streaming down her body. This time she was sure she could spontaneously combust, when he was already moving his fingers mercilessly slow to the area between her legs and he stopped short. She could still feel his mouth on her chest, but what was to come...being postponed was entirely cruel.

Inuyasha knew making her wait...perhaps not so kind, would prove to make everything that much lovelier. When instead the course of the current, which had now halted for a few agonizing moments which felt to Kagome to be eternities, changed moving instead to her thigh and down her leg; Kagome let out a stangled gasp and considered begging him. Then he nibbled at the flesh of her breast and his tongue danced over her nipple and she almsot forgot entirely about the slight disapointment and suffering Inuyasha had been causing her earlier when she moaned again. At that very instant she felt his touch find its way to where she had yearned for it most. Any will to restrain noise in an attempt to prevent anyone from knowing the taboo that was taking place there was diminished now and her voice rung out throughout that room in an almost hystaric cry of ecstacy. And as he delved deeper within her and fluctuated unexpectedly with his fingers, using no restraint to how much he would explore, tickle, entice, rub, and encompass her...she couldn't help herself at all. She opened her legs, getting to her knees and dipping in as much as humans possible, feeling his mouth trace her chest in a sort of rythmic pattern with his fingers. She felt his other hand fall onto her back ungracefully when she stroked his nipple with her lips as if clinging on in surprise, and he rubbed down against her spine, all the sensations combined in erratic patterns resulted in her harsh bnreaths and moans to become unpredictable in themselves. "Oh...ah...ohhh....oh....In...In...uyasha !!"

She couldn't take it, she had to feel him inside her...the impulse was too harsh for her to ignore much longer and though she knew she would experience pain...she had to... Inuyasha was taken by surprise when she suddenly shifted over him, and flung the red nightie off of her, his hands were already on her bare skin, but now he felt her press her sweat-ridden body against him forcefully, but she slid gracefully onto him. He removed his hands from her and grasped her small shoulders, as she pressed her hips into him, and felt one of the strangest sensations she'd ever expreienced in her life.

He had entered her, and Inuyasha felt the shaking of his entire body begin to subside, but the feeling he was experiencing was unimaginable. "Ka...Kagome..." He felt the sensation coursing through his body...pulsing, the pleasure was unfathomable when she brought herself even more nearer to him, grasping his arms tightly. The pain she was going through was something Inuyasha was aware of...he delicately ran his fingers through her hair. His lips lightly brushing her nose, fore-head, cheeks, and eyes, and he embraced her. He loved this woman--every inch of her--and he knew this for certain, tracing her breasts, arms, neck, and hair and he kissed each lightly. The pleasure coursing through him was less than what he felt when she moaned his name and felt wonderful herself...he felt he owed this expression of love to her after closing himself to her so long...and hurting her with his cruel words...why couldn't it be he that was the one in pain? Now she traced his muscles and chest, and indulged her fingers in his silvery hair. She took hold of one of his ears and she squeezed it irresistibly, causing him to dip in and take in her sweet scent, he felt this moment was the most powerful and wonderful...through her pain she still loved him so much she couldn't feel any better than now, and at that moment she thrust her hips into him again, causing him to be enrapped further into her. He knew this caused her more pain.

"Ka...Kagome...you don't have to...."

"Aah--oh...it's okay..." she whispered, lipping his chest lightly, her fingers slid, curving along his stomach, ribs, and chest.

"...ah...I...I--love you..."

Kagome felt her body burning up with the invigorating sensation of extreme joy. She supposed she knew all along, or else she wouldn't have ever done this...but...now she was sure. She dove down rapidly and kissed him with the utmost passion and strength though she felt her energy failing the less harsh her breaths became.

And he knew...that was her saying she loved him too.
