Chapter 22 Back to Health

Inuyasha held Kagome close. He never wanted to let her go. It killed him to not be able to comfort her while he was severely injured. He promised himself he would never put here through that again.

Kagome was so relieved that Inuyasha was okay. She would never leave his side again. Never. She had to picture her life without Inuyasha, and she couldn't. She couldn't see herself recovering if she lost him. She would have nothing left.

"Never scare me like that again, okay?" Kagome said into his chest. Inuyasha became solemn.

"I'm so sorry I wasn't here for you Kagome. I'll be here from now on. I won't put you through this ever again. I hope you can forgive me." He told her as he tightened his grip on her.

"Oh Inuyasha." Kagome whispered. She looked up into his molten amber eyes. They looked so warm and soft. Kagome climbed on top of him. She leaned in and kissed him. He kissed her back and placed his hands on her hips. Their mouths moved with unison in a much missed dance of passion.

The two of them were completely rendered breathless. They were forced to separate for air. Their breaths were heavy and uneven. Kagome relaxed her body onto Inuyasha's. This calmed both of them immensely. Their breaths became slower once again.

"I was so worried about you Inuyasha. I was scared I would lose you." She said. Inuyasha hugged her tight. "This whole thing has made me realize how much I truly love you. And how I can't live without you in my life anymore." She pulled her head back to return her gaze into his eyes. "You are my everything."

"You're my everything too. That's why I would risk my life to save yours." He had to look away from her eyes. "I never want you to be hurt. Ever again! I almost lost you once and I would rather die than risk losing you again." Inuyasha told her. Kagome put her hand on his cheek and made him look at her. "I was born for you Kagome." He said. Her heart skipped a beat. She was over whelmed by the feeling of love.

She smiled at him. He had to smile back. Her smiles were contagious. "Thank you." She told him. He shook his head.

"No thank you. For letting me be with you." He replied. Kagome swooned at his words. She had it all. Her best friend was also her lover.

A knock at the door rang throughout the room. Kagome then noticed how she was sitting on top of Inuyasha and blushed before she squeaked and jump out of his lap. Inuyasha laughed at her. "Come in!" He called, still laughing at Kagome's red face. Miroku entered the room with two new plates of food. He looked very happy. The plates held bacon, biscuit and scrambled eggs. Kagome was confused. She thought she had only dosed off. She examined the room and saw the sun beaming in the window. Then, she saw the two crumb and sauce covered plates.

"What time is it?" She asked.

"It's about 11 o'clock." Miroku informed her. Kagome's mouth fell open.

"What?! I've been a sleep since like 8 last night?! Why did no one wake me up?!" She ranted. Miroku waved his hands in surrender to try and save his own hide.

"Master Inuyasha told us not to! He said we should let you rest! Please forgive us!" Miroku bowed and pleaded for forgiveness. Inuyasha place a hand on Kagome's and smiled at her. Her face softened. She knew it was best for her. She had been exhausted.

"It's okay Miroku." She told him with a sigh. "But who ate my dinner from last night?" She asked pointing out the empty plates beside the bed.

"Oh, I ate yours since you were sleeping. It helps my body recover faster with the more nutrition in my system." Inuyasha explained. "Plus, I was starving!" Kagome laughed and Miroku did as well. Miroku brought the tray of food over and placed it on the bed. The two thanked him and he left the room. Kagome ate her food kind of slowly to make sure Inuyasha had enough to eat before she finished. He scarfed down the plate and gulped down his orange juice.

"Did you have enough Inuyasha?" Kagome asked. He looked at her and blinked a few times.
"Yeah, you're not done yet? Do you not like it? I thought it was delicious." He replied. Kagome giggled.

"Oh no! It is very good! I just want your strength to be up for your recovery." She told him. He smiled.

"Don't worry about me okay? I'm already healing well. I'll be completely better in no time." He replied. "Now eat your food!" He ordered jokingly. She giggled and ate the remains off her plate.
"Did you get enough?" Inuyasha teased. Kagome squinted her eyes at him and elbowed his arm. He laughed and she pouted. He gave her a hug and she couldn't help but forgive him.

"So how much have you healed since last night?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha removed the bandages and Kagome gasped. The hole in his stomach was almost completely sealed up. And it looked like there wouldn't even be a scar.

"Wow! It's healing really well!" She mused.

"Yeah, but I wanted to be fully healed by noon. Looks like it will take at least a few more hours." Inuyasha said as he examined the wound.

"You've healed so much though! You shouldn't push your body to heal so quickly." Kagome told him as she placed a hand on his now exposed chest. He wrapped an arm around her and pulled her close to him. Kagome laid on his chest and snuggled into his warm skin. Inuyasha took in her scent and his muscles relaxed.

"You make it easy for me." He told her. "I heal faster when I’m relaxed and that’s what you do to me." Kagome smiled. "Hey." He said softly. Kagome looked up at him to indicate for him to continue. "You should go get Shippo. My mom has been watching him for us." He said. Kagome nodded as she started to sit up. She gave Inuyasha a loving kiss before she stood up and exited the room.

Kagome sighed and made her way to the child's room. She came to the door and knocked. Hearing her adopted son call that she could come in, she turned the doorknob and entered the room.

Shippo was on his belly on his bed coloring some pictures. Kagome walked over to sit next to him.

"What are you drawing Shippo?" She asked. Shippo looked up at her with a smile.

"I'm drawing a portrait of Satsuki." He told her. Kagome looked Round the room and saw tons of balled up pieces of paper. She picked one up and flattened it out to look at it. For Shippo's young age, she was surprised how well he had done on her portrait.

"These are all really good Shippo!" Kagome told him. He wrinkled his nose with his distaste.

"It's not good enough though." He stated. He continued to make his concentrated stokes on the paper. Kagome watched him and thought, 'Why does he want it completely perfect?' Then it hit her.

"Shippo, she will love the picture your drawing her even if it's not perfect." She told him warmly. He looked up at her with hope shining through his eyes.

"You think mommy?!" He exclaimed. Kagome smiled and nodded. His face lit up even more. He colored the picture more for a minute before he abruptly stopped. Kagome was surprised but smiled. He jumped to his feet with the portrait in hand.

"Look! Look mommy!" He said hopping into Kagome's lap. Kagome took the picture and wrapped an arm around her son.

"This is really good Shippo! Satsuki will love it!" Kagome told him with a hug. Shippo took back the picture and leaped to the floor.

"Thanks mommy! I'm going to go give it to her right now!" He said excitedly.

"Okay dear. Don't be too long. Inuyasha and I were planning on spending some time with you today." Kagome told him. Shippo smiled and jumped into her arms for a hug. Then he ran out the door faster than Kagome had ever seen him run before. Kagome giggled before she stood and returned to Inuyasha's side.

She was reaching for the doorknob when a petite hand was placed on her shoulder. Kagome turned and found Sango behind her. She almost greeted her but Sango put a finger over her lips and motioned for them to walk away from the door. Kagome nodded and the two walked down the hallway towards the stairs. Sango thought Inuyasha wouldn't hear them at that distance.

"Hey Kagome." Sango greeted her with a slight grin. Kagome smiled back.

"What's up Sango?" Kagome asked. Sango's face looked like she was covering up her sadness. Kagome could tell she still felt bad.

"How is Inuyasha feeling? I just wanted to check on him." Sango asked.

"He's doing so much better now! His wound is almost all closed up!" Kagome told her happily. Sango grinned slightly. She was happy he was okay. Sango then sighed with some relief. "Sango? Do you still feel bad for what happened?" Kagome asked her.

"Oh, well.. Umm.. No! Of course not!" She replied with a nervous laugh. Kagome hugged her friend. Sango became quiet and hugged back.

"Seriously Sango, this whole thing had nothing to do with you." Kagome said pulling back to look at her friend in the eye. "No one is holding a grudge against you, so you should let it go. We're all friends here and it was just an accident!" Kagome told her with a smile. "So how about you go spend some time with Miroku and think about it. Then maybe we can all hang out again as soon as Inuyasha is better!" Kagome offered, knowing that he would be completely healed soon. Sango smiled.

"Thanks Kagome." Sango said. They hugged again before parting ways. Kagome returned to her bedroom where her love was waiting for her.

She opened the door only to be greeted by a kiss from Inuyasha. He wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her passionately. Kagome giggled lightly as she stabilized herself by putting her arms around Inuyasha's neck. They parted and Kagome hugged her lover with all her might. He hugged her back but more gently.

"What are you doing out of bed?" Kagome asked. Inuyasha pulled back and grinned at her.

"I'm not a little kid you know. I can take care of myself." He said with a teasing pride in his voice. Kagome squinted her eyes but still smiled.

"Oh you think so huh?" She said pulling away from him. He frowned. He missed her warmth already. "Fine!" She continued, crossing her arms.

"Fine? Fine what?!" Inuyasha franticly asked, scared what his punishment might be. Kagome turned away from him with a huge grin on her face. She had plans for him. Now that he was better, she could 'torture' him all she wanted.

"Oh you'll see!" She replied cheerfully. Fear shot through Inuyasha's features. Kagome laughed out loud before she walked over to the closet, grabbed a change of clothes and headed into the bathroom. 'I'll make him wonder for a while. Then, later he's gonna get it!' She giggled as she turned on the bath water and took off the clothes she had on. She turned off the water when there was just the right amount.

She slowly waded into the bath and submerged herself up to her neck and relaxed her body on the back of the tub. She sighed in delight. The hot water felt refreshing and cleansing on her skin.

She was relieved that she could finally relax. All the tension did a number on her. She was just glad Inuyasha was better and they could continue their lives together.

She closed her eyes and sighed again with a smile. A light scratching at the door made her once again aware of where her lover was. She giggled because she knew how she had left him worried.

Inuyasha whimpered and scratched at the bathroom door. He know Kagome was taking a bath but he didn't want to be away from her.

"Come in Inuyasha!" Kagome called. She watched as the door cracked open and she saw Inuyasha step in with his ears drooped and Kagome's favorite grin he made missing. She lifted her arms out of the water and reached for him to come closer.

He walked forward and knelt down next to the tub. Kagome put a hand on either side of his face. Her touch was even warmer because of the bath and Inuyasha felt like floating. Kagome slip her hands down his neck to the collar of his shirt.

"How about you join me." Kagome said softly. She had a sly grin on her face and it made it's way onto Inuyasha's as well. He stood and began to undress himself. Kagome rested her arms on the rim of the tub and enjoyed the opportunity to watch him. She watched his bronzed skin become exposed to the steam of the bathroom and how his hair glistened in the moist air.

Inuyasha had a similar mind set as he examined his mate relaxing in the water. The droplets trickled down her neck onto her bare chest until it reunited with the rest of the water. He walked over and Kagome scooted so he could come in with her.

Inuyasha bent down and kissed Kagome gently as he descended into the water. He wrapped his arms around her waist and the kisses became more intense. Kagome pulled his closer to her. Inuyasha was over top of her, but Kagome wanted to try something different.

When his body was on top of hers, she turned him over so she was sitting on his lap. He was surprised but he liked it. Inuyasha let his hands wander up to her breasts. His lips released hers and made their way to where his hands were. He sucked on her breast and Kagome threw her head back, moaning in pleasure.

When Inuyasha's ears picked up her moans, a rumble emerged from his chest. He stopped what he was doing and placed his hands on Kagome's hips. He looked up into her eyes. She nodded to let him know it was okay. He lifted her by her hips and placed her entrance at his tip.

The seconds seemed like minutes to Kagome as she waited for the pleasure she knew was coming. She moaned in anticipation.

"Oh Inuyasha. Please!" She moaned out. Inuyasha loved it when she squirmed a little. But he couldn't wait either. He slowly releases her weight and she slid down his shaft until she reached the base. Kagome cried out in ecstasy. The rumbles continued to vibrate through Inuyasha's chest.

Kagome bounced up and down, the water splashing around. Inuyasha leaned forward and tenderly nibbled and kissed at Kagome's neck. Kagome tightened her grip on Inuyasha's neck and pressed her nose into his hair. She took in his scent and all her senses were in bliss.

Inuyasha gripped her hips and sped up the motions Kagome was already doing. Both of them squeezed their eyes shut as the pleasure completely washed over their bodies. They were close. Kagome tangled her fingers in his hair and pulled lightly. Inuyasha's growls got louder. The speed got faster as they got closer and closer to their peak.

"Inuyasha! Inuyasha! I'm cumming! I'm cumming!" Kagome cried out. His ears twitched and his eyes shot open, crimson red. The hair in Kagome's grasp turned more fur like and she knew Inuyasha was close too. Their speed became superhuman. Both of them moaning and Inuyasha growling as well. Both of them through their heads back and arched their bodies into one another as they reached their climax. Their bodies relaxed onto each others. Inuyasha's features went back to normal. Kagome lifted her head from his shoulder and smiled at him. He smiled back. She threw her arms around his neck and he laughed as he hugged her back.

"I missed you so much." He whispered. Kagome smiled even wider.

"I missed you too!" She told him.

They finished their embrace with a kiss then went back to getting washed up. When they finished, they dried off and got dressed for a fun afternoon of playing with Shippo.
