InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Little Moments ❯ Trouble in Paradise ( Chapter 34 )
[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]
So I decided to take a stab at a drabble series. I have been largely inspired by my favorite authoress, Forthright. I highly suggest you check out her stuff. Its amazing! This particular idea was given to me as I listened to "Little Moments" by Brad Paisley.
Explanation: This series will follow the first year of the newly mated couple of Kagome and Inuyasha. It will be small highlights throughout their relationship, moments when they remind each other why they love one another.
Disclaimer: I claim no ownership over these characters. They belong to the lovely Rumiko Takahashi! I just like to borrow them from time to time.
Warning! Inu potty mouth!
Updates will be short! You can expect to see a at least one update a week unless otherwise noted. Now on with the show!
Little Moments – Trouble in Paradise
Knock. Knock.
It was early evening, the sun just beginning to set, when Kagome opened the door to reveal a slightly chagrined Miroku. Her eyebrows raised in surprise. "Miroku?" she asked, glancing back towards the driveway, "This is a surprise. Is Sango with you?"
He rubbed the back of his head, giving her his best "aw shucks" smile. "Ah no. I apologize for showing up unannounced, but Sango needed some time alone."
Kagome narrowed her eyes as her arms crossed over her chest. "Do I need to go do some damage control?" she asked, already debating which flavors of ice cream to pick up and what movies to bring.
Miroku raised his hands in defense. "No, no," he responded, chuckling nervously. "I just found it in the best interest of our relationship and my own personal health to give her some time to cool off."
She studied him for a moment longer before allowing a warm smile to spread across her face. "Of course you can stay," she replied, opening the door further and stepping aside. "You know where the spare room is, I'll put some fresh linens in there for you. We had dinner already, but if you are hungry I could heat up some left overs?"
Miroku pulled her into a friendly embrace, mindful of his hands. "Your kindness never ceases to amaze me. Thank you, but all I require is a place to rest my weary head."
Kagome nodded after giving him a final squeeze. "Alright, Inuyasha is watching TV in the other room. I'm going to call Sango just to make sure everything is OK."
She disappeared into the kitchen as Miroku wandered down the hall. He found Inuyasha where she said he would, sitting on the couch, eyes glued to the television. Not even lifting his gaze, Inuyasha called out. "Yo Bouzo, what did you do this time?"
Miroku feigned innocence as he took a seat next to his friend. "Now Inuyasha, what makes you think I did something wrong?"
Inuyasha pointed a clawed finger towards a twitching ear. "I heard the whole thing, don't try to deny it. I don't know why Sango puts up with you. She's way too good to you."
Miroku frowned, nodding his head. "It's true, Sango does not agree with my healthy appreciation for the fairer sex. But there will never be another for me, she knows that. Ever since my hand caressed her tender flesh I have faithfully belonged to her."
"Keh. Well you don't see me treating my woman like that."
Miroku gave him a sly smile. "Oh really? You mean to tell me that you always tell Kagome what you are thinking? There is no room for improvement?"
Inuyasha snapped his mouth shut, turning away slightly. "She knows what she means to me," he mumbled.
"Ah yes, I'm sure she does. But you know my friend, they like to hear it from time to time. Our women are fickle creatures. Sometimes they like to be reassured."
Inuyasha feigned a laugh. "Ya, like I need advice from a lecher like you, especially when you are here now because you just fucked up at home."
Miroku chuckled. "Touche."
<Line Break>
The rest of the evening passed quietly and soon everyone was ready to retire for the night. Inuyasha crawled into bed with his already dozing mate. He pulled her into his chest, spooning her from behind like usual. However, tonight he held on a little tighter, intertwining his finger with her own.
"Hey Kagome?" he murmured quietly.
She stirred slightly in his arms. "Hmm?" she hummed out sleepily.
He placed a kiss to her neck before nuzzling into her hair. "I love you."
Kagome smiled as she snuggled back into him, feeling his heart beat against her skin. There was no place she'd rather be than in his arms. "Love you too Inu."
It wasn't long before she drifted off to sleep, feeling safe and warm in his solid embrace. Her smile never faltered.
A/N: Hello my lovelies! This chapter wouldn't exactly cooperate with me, so I apologize. It probably has something to do with how tired I am! I've gotten about 8 hours in the past two days. Working nights and school in the morning isn't the greatest! Haha SplendentGoddess, I am ashamed to admit that The Grudge scared the pants off of me. And nice to see you again sutlesarcasm! I'll be sure to watch out for your right hook hehe. Let me know what you guys think! ^_^
