I Keep Crying, I Keep Trying For You
 
 
Slowly, Kagome woke up, stretched and yawned. The bed was so comfortable she did not want to move any further. Opening her eyes, she was surprised and pleased to see that InuYasha was still sleeping. Yesterday had been hard on him, and she felt he deserved a good rest. He lay on his back next to her, his mouth slightly open, breathing deeply and calmly. She reflected that there had been few times in all the time they had been together that she saw him like this. The time he came and stayed with her in her own time when she was trying to study for her exams came to mind. Gently she rested her hand on his chest and smiled. He looked so boyish and sweet right now. The light touch was enough to stir him awake, and she regretted losing this moment, but it could not be helped now.
 
InuYasha closed his mouth and swallowed, turning his head in her direction, and opened his eyes.
 
“Good morning sleepy head,” she said brightly.
 
He scratched his head and yawned, then smirked at her.
 
“Morning to you too,” he said
 
“Sleep well?” she said. “See, I told you this bed was comfortable.”
 
“Hmph,” he replied. “Come here."
 
Gently, he reached over and pulled her on top of him, so she was resting on his chest. She nestled into him and he kissed the top of her head.
 
There was a knock on the door.
 
“If you are awake,” said Masahiro from the other side of the door, “breakfast is ready.”
 
Kagome looked up at InuYasha, and he looked back at her. They both felt a little sad to have to end this comfortable time together and face what the day had to bring them. In fact, InuYasha's morning erection was poking her in the leg, and before the knock at the door, he had had half a mind to use it.
 
With a sigh, Kagome rolled off him and went looking for her clothes. Finding InuYasha's first, she threw them at him and he got dressed. When they were both dressed, they left the room and walked into the main room of the house. Masahiro had set their breakfast out on a low table, and the three sat down to eat.
 
“So,” said Masahiro, “now that I have seen the blue light energy you two emit during sex, I will explain to you what is happening.”
 
“What?!” InuYasha sputtered, nearly choking on his food. “Don't tell me you saw us last night?”
 
“Well,” said Kagome, blushing, “we are not exactly quiet when we make love. Masahiro must have taken a peek in when we were busy, right?”
 
Masahiro inclined his head in a graceful affirmative.
 
InuYasha scowled and crossed his arms.
 
“Come on,” Kagome said in a placating voice. “At least it's over and you don't have to worry about performing anymore.”
 
Rubbing his back, she tilted her head at him and smiled one of her brightest smiles.
 
“Yeah, guess so,” InuYasha muttered.
 
“Please, monk Masahiro, tell us what you know,” said Kagome, turning back to look at the monk.
 
“When the two of you have sex, you are awakening the kundalini, a spiritual energy that resides at the base of the spine,” he said. “There exists a strong, karmic bond between you and InuYasha, so that when you have sex with him, it ignites this energy and sets it free.”
 
“Why can't she control it?” asked InuYasha, “and how come it makes her fall unconscious?”
 
“Most likely her chakras are blocked.” Masahiro replied.
 
“Chakras?” asked Kagome.
 
“Yes, your power flows up through the six chakras, from the base of your spine where the kundalini resides,” he said. “If they are blocked, there is a backflow and this is what is ailing you.”
 
Kagome looked thoughtful.
 
“So, what do you suggest we do?” she finally asked.
 
“By mastering Tantric sex, you will learn how to tap in to the full potential of your power,” Masahiro said. “We will clear your chakras and you will learn to channel your power up through them and be able to control it.”
 
“This better not harm her in anyway,” said InuYasha, “because I won't do it if it does.”
 
“On the contrary, if you two can master Tantric sex and her chakras are clear, Kagome will be most powerful,” Masahiro replied. “No harm will befall her.”
 
Kagome smiled and looked at InuYasha.
 
“But if you had not come to me when you did, and if you two can't master Tantric sex and clear Kagome's chakras, the backflow of power will eventually kill her.”
 
Kagome blanched and swallowed. Up until he had said that, it all seemed pretty straightforward and positive. Now she was a little worried.
 
InuYasha snarled and clenched his fist.
 
“If doing this Tantric sex thing will save Kagome, I'll do it,” he said. “Nothing will stop me from protecting her, even from herself.”
 
Masahiro sighed deeply and slowly, lacing his fingers together in front of him.
 
“I am glad that you are so eager to do this, InuYasha,” he said evenly. “But I will tell you now, I don't expect this to be easy for you.”
 
“What do you mean, monk?” InuYasha snapped back.
 
“In order to perform Tantric sex, one must find the peaceful center within ones self,” the monk said. “You must give up your anger, give up your pain, and face all of your inner turmoil and expel it.”
 
InuYasha gaped. Then he paled and growled unhappily.
 
“Kagome, now look what you got me into,” he said morosely, and put his head in his hands.
