InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Inuyasha - love story - rewritten ❯ Blood ( Chapter 2 )

Inuyasha sat down on the ground dumbly, a little surprised that he could get this red without people noticing. He sighed, as Becky sat down on the ground as well, a couple of metres away from him. He felt his cheeks begin to redden once more, and he buried his head in his hands. Kagome kneeled next to him, placing a hand on his shoulder.

 

“Inuyasha, are you OK?” she asked, a little afraid of his answer.

 

Inuyasha was silent for a moment, as he milled over what to say. He couldn't very well tell her `I'm just hiding my blushing cheeks because I have a crush on a girl I met just moments ago' No, he could not say that, for sure.

 

“I'm fine,” he replied grimly, burrowing his head in his hands deeply, before looking up at her. He didn't return any affection though. Kagome squeezed his shoulder, almost begging for him to give her a hug, or at least touch her hand. Inuyasha acted dumb, wriggling away from her touch.

 

Kagome felt tears prick her eyes, jealousy beginning to form. What's so special about this hanyou?

 

Becky looked at Kagome sullenly, noticing the anguish in the girl's eyes after Inuyasha had wriggled away from her touch. Becky knew the feeling, so she could relate to the girl. Inuyasha looked to Becky sullenly, his eyes glistening as she returned his gaze. Becky felt her cheeks reach poker-hot, and her whole body starting to sweat. When she couldn't take it any more, she averted her gaze, looking at her dull claws.

 

Inuyasha stood up and walked over to the girl. He bent down in front of her, grabbing her hands. He tried with all of his might to keep from sweating when he suddenly noticed that Becky's hands were moist. He looked at her and she returned his gaze, with half-closed eyes and rose-red cheeks. He continued to hold onto her hands as he looked at her. His own razor-sharp claws grazed against her skin. If she had been human, he would have left a mark, but Becky's hanyou skin was tougher than that.

 

Kagome stood up, watching the two hanyous. From her point of view, it looked like they were kissing again. “SIT!” she cried desperately, tears falling down her cheeks.

 

Inuyasha cried out in surprise, falling right into Becky's lap. Becky remained stock-still, and so did Inuyasha. His head was right at the end of her mid-thigh skirt, and since she was cross-legged, all he had to do was look up for a glance of glory.

 

But he decided against it.

 

Becky grimaced at the way Inuyasha's hair began to tickle the inside of her thighs. She still remained still, waiting for something to happen. Inuyasha began to lift his head slowly, his gaze averted from Becky's dress. He rose up until he was once again on his knees. He grasped Becky's shivering hands and opened his mouth to say something:

 

“Sorry.”

 

Becky laughed, feeling her insides ache. She keeled over, her body vibrating with the violence of her laughter. Once she was done, she looked back up to Inuyasha, smiling.

 

“Why do you laugh so much?” Inuyasha asked suddenly, cocking his head to one side.

 

Becky looked back at him, milling it over. “Well… in the village I grew up in, I didn't have much stuff to laugh at, because nobody would talk to me, much less hang out with me. I guess I'm catching up on it.”

 

Inuyasha looked down at his toes, remembering that feeling. He was so lucky now to have such good and close friends. His eyes glazed over and he was surprised by how close he was to tears. He remained in that position, but his hand wandered to Becky's shoulder, pulling her into as hug.

 

Becky, startled by this sudden hug, gasped softly. Inuyasha held her tightly, his nails gripping her skin. They pierced Becky's skin, causing her to jump back, in surprise. Inuyasha's eyes widened at the sight of her blood on his nails. He looked at her apologetically.

 

“It's fine,” Becky said softly, just as Inuyasha opened his mouth. On one side of her back, there was a long gash, from her pulling away, and the other side of her back held only a prick.

 

“No, it isn't, I'll take you to the house I share with my three friends,” Inuyasha ordered.

 

“Y-you don't have to do that,” Becky shot back, as the blood began to make its way down her back.

 

Without another word, Inuyasha scooped the girl up and began to walk to the house. She kicked her legs, trying to get down, but he held her tightly. Inuyasha began to speed up, running past a sullen Kagome.

 

“Inuyasha?” She called, as he sped past her. She began to run after him, but she couldn't run his speed. She was soon left behind.

 

“Almost there!” Inuyasha assured Becky, beginning to slow his pace considerably. They halted in front of a rustic one-floored house, quite big and spacious. Becky stifled a gasp at the place; it was at least ten times bigger than her own house, which was a one-roomed shed at the outskirts of the town.

 

Inuyasha, still carrying her, traipsed into the house, sliding the door open.

 

They were welcomed by a skeptical Kirara, in her kitten form. She sniffed Inuyasha, suddenly aware of the smell of blood. She growled at Becky, transforming into her demon form. She bared her teeth at the startled girl, growling.

 

“Kirara, no!” came the voice of a young woman.

 

Sango sauntered into the room, her weapon brandished. Kirara slunk over to her reluctantly, her teeth still bared at the stranger.

 

“Who is this?” Sango said, smiling sweetly at Becky.

 

“Oh, this is…” Inuyasha began, suddenly realizing that he didn't even know the hanyou's name.

 

“…Becky,” Becky said softly, her cheeks flushing red. She looked at her tattered shoes, as if they would talk for her. Sango's gaze on her made her feel very uncomfortable.

 

Sango smiled knowingly at the two of them, the faint blushes across their faces only making their crushes even more evident. She winked at Inuyasha and mouthed `offer her your room, tonight.'

 

Inuyasha looked at her dumbly, thinking, but there are no extra rooms in this house… Sango and Miroku each have their own room, and Kagome does, too… does she mean the both of us…? Inuyasha felt his cheeks flush even more. W-we c-can't share a room…

 

Becky looked at him quizzically, her blue eyes shining.

 

Did she tell him to offer me his room?
