InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Risky business ❯ chapter one ( Chapter 2 )

Disclaimer: Again, unfortunately I do not own Inuyasha or any of its characters, now on with the story!

 

***********~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~*****************

 

Things hadn't always been this way. I was never any one else's mistress and I still find it hard to believe that even applies to what Inuyasha and I have.

 

We'd been the best of friends for most of our lives; we met when we were very young at my family shrine and were practically inseparable. It wasn't until a year ago when he met her. Kikyo. She transferred to Tokyo Law School where we finishing up our last year.

 

Things didn't really change at first between us; he still talked to me, more like a buddy thing than anything else. It wasn't until eight months into their relationship that things started to get serious. I knew what it was; being a priestess I knew much about demons, even half demons such as Inuyasha.

 

It appeared that apparently, they became a little too friendly with each other and it scared Kikyo off. She was a miko too, and apparently she fed Inuyasha some bull shit line that she didn't want to have those kinds of relations with him because she felt it would endanger her losing her “abilities”. So he of course ran to me and asked me if it was true.

 

I had never lied to him. Ever. I never liked lying to anyone because it always left me feeling negatively inside and miko's were never suppose to keep that karma. So I told him the truth. Of course I didn't say that it was all bull shit, I kind of let him know that maybe she was just misinformed that nothing would happen to her.

 

I felt stupid trying to cover up for her, but the last thing I wanted was to hurt Inuyasha. He came by my office the next day, but instead of seeing him happy- cause I'd expected him to get laid- he seemed even more distraught than ever. I left the office immediately taking him back to my place to find out what was wrong.

 

All the while I kept thinking about Kikyo's “real” miko abilities and training. Didn't she know what she did to Inuyasha was almost a crime? The youkai can typically live up to five hundred years, most of it depending on how resourceful you are and your power.

 

However most demons now didn't really try to live forever and most of their life spans ranged from two hundred to four hundred years. A hanyou however typically only lived to be a hundred fifty to two hundred. Because of this slow aging process their “puberty” hit much sooner than a normal demons, usually around twenty eight twenty nine.

 

But here was the kicker, if a hanyou or demon was involved sexually or close to it, it automatically woke up their inner demon demanding them to mate. Not necessarily marry but have lots of sex. Usually everyone knew this, well at least those trained and demons themselves, that's why Inuyasha had never been seriously involved with anyone before, because he was afraid of their reactions.

 

But surely Kikyo knew that if she went too far and not “satisfy” him it would only drive him into a bad lusting stage that only brought out more of his demon blood. So why did she do this? Why would she cause him so much pain?

 

I knew that day that he was incredibly depressed, especially when he refused Ramen. We didn't talk much, and I didn't force him too so we basically sat in my flat and watched action flicks till one in the morning.

 

As I left him to go get ready for bed, his hand snatched mine as I passed. “Kagome do you like me as a half demon?” his voice was heart breaking and lots of emotions hit me at once. Had she done this? Had she truly broken him?

 

I don't know what came over me but I threw myself at him hugging him tightly, “Of course I do Inuyasha! What's wrong with you! I demand to know why you're acting this way.”

 

It took a while, but eventually he did. Apparently Kikyo had gotten a hold of some black priestess books and found a spell that could turn a half demon into a human and she asked him to turn into one.

 

“Why would she do that Inuyasha? I mean she knew who you were all along why would she try to change you now?”

 

From my new position on the couch I saw his shoulders slump ever further. “We were talking about getting married.”

 

That sentence alone put a very large lump in my throat and sent a pain in my chest. At the time I didn't know why, I knew I couldn't be jealous. But I was stupid.

 

I urged him to tell me the whole story, and then I wished I hadn't because the looks on his face were heartbreaking. “I don't know why I felt this way Kagome, I felt like she cared about me too. So when she started talking about wanting a family, I don't know it just sort of worked itself out in my head you know? I mean I'm freaking thirty years old Kagome I'm not getting any younger and well she knew what I was and I thought she was okay with it. But then she started making these weird comments about not wanting her children to have demonic auras.”

 

“She said that!” I couldn't of helped the outburst, I couldn't believe that bitch, their was absolutely nothing wrong with having babies with demon blood in them. Especially if they had cute little doggy ears like Inuyasha's.

 

His head hung a bit lower and realized that maybe I should have just stayed quiet.

 

“Yeah. She did, but when I didn't seemed to enthused and I thought about ending the relationship, but when I told her that she seemed to really feel bad for what she said and tried to make it up to me…..by…..” his voice trailed off and I noticed his cheeks were tinged with a light pink.

 

“Oh come on Inuyasha! You've never been shy around me before, tell me what happened.” Of course I really didn't want him to tell me, but I had to be there for him, so I offered him a smile and unfortunately it worked.

 

“We actually went further than just kissing and cuddling. But when we actually started getting close to mating I felt my demon blood pulsing, and apparently she did too and she wasn't too thrilled with it. So we stopped. It was so weird afterwards because she seemed to shy away from my touch, she even asked me to clip my claws extra short. So then I totally backed off. I mean it was okay, but I felt like I just wasn't close to her anymore.”

 

“But then she got really drunk the other night and we almost mated again, only this time I felt myself transforming, and I don't know if it was the alcohol or what but she started screaming.”

 

His adorable ears hung drooped as if in memory of that night. “She told me that I scared her and she couldn't trust me unless I changed into a human. So of course I tried to break it off again, but the next morning she called and apologized blaming the alcohol.”

 

“But she finally confessed something to me yesterday; she told me that she made that stuff up about her powers because she felt I would back off. Can you believe it? She made it sound like I was trying to rape her or something. So then she said that if I changed that we could start a family and get married and not have to worry about me losing control and hurting her and I don't know but I'm actually considering it, I mean she was honest about it and maybe we can move forward now.”

 

I was torn, I couldn't believe that Inuyasha, my childhood best friend who always stood up for me and protected me, who had a really bad temper and took no one's shit was sitting on my couch on the verge of tears.

 

“Inuyasha, I need to ask you some things okay, before I can tell you what I think would be best.”

 

He nodded and inside I kept screaming `leave her'. “Has she told you that she loves you?”

 

His posture was immediately back and his eyes glazed with hurt, “She's said it before.”

 

“Do you love her?”

 

I felt like banging my head into a wall for asking a question I had no desire in knowing the answer too. “I think I do.” And even though his answer wasn't enthused it still hurt.

 

“Okay here's the last question and please don't get offended, I just need to know,” taking in a deep breath a blurted out the last part, “this isn't just about sex right?”

 

“What?! Kagome what the hell is wrong with you of course it's not okay! Damn I just want to be with her and make her happy! I want to settle down I want to be with someone that loves me and can see the real me you know? Someone that can actually see through my concealment spell, I want to be with someone that wants to be with me too.”

 

His anger faded as he argued with me, and he looked less like the man I knew and more like a small child who needed comforting.

 

“I gotta go.” He stood up reaching over to grab his coat and I was on my feet instantly stopping him with another hug. “Inuyasha, please don't go. I never got to tell you my answer.”

 

I felt his arms come around my waist and felt like crying for him, “Inuyasha I don't think that you should have to change for anyone. I love you for who you are as a half demon, human and fully demon. And even though it's fun to pick on you during your human night, I couldn't imagine living without your cute doggy ears.”

 

I reached up to stroke them, like I had done many times in the past. Only that it was my stupidity that led to one of the best things occuring. “Kagome.” I always loved how he said my name; it always made me feel special just to hear him say it.

 

I was too caught up rubbing his ears that I missed the warning tone in his voice. When I did finally manage to look into his eyes they were a bright crimson with two blue pupils staring right back at me. The two purple marks on his face were a clear indication that he was definitely completely transformed. His grip tightened considerably on my waist and I found it difficult to breathe, but being so close to him I didn't feel frightened, after all it was just Inuyasha.

 

“Mine.” He said, and I felt my knees go weak, if I thought I liked how he said my name before, his full demon voice calling me his just sent one right through me. He smirked, and didn't really know why he did, but it gave me nice peek at his very sharp canines. I didn't know what was wrong with me, I should have been pulling away, purifying him or anything else but want to give into my desire.

 

And of course I desired him, yeah I never really gave much thought to seducing my best friend, of course he was sexy, god anyone with eyes could have told you that much -thick gorgeous hair, piercing golden eyes, great build, nice ass- but what made him even sexier was his personality.

 

And now in his true demonic self the man was just radiating sex appeal. “Mine.” He said again and before I could even stop, or kiss him, he beat me too it and crushed his lips to mine. I don't fully remember how we ended up on my bed, or how he ripped off my favorite law school sweatshirt and boxers, or even how he ended up naked on top of me. It was all a blur until he thrusted himself inside me. There was no hesitation, or permission to be asked, because maybe his demon instinct knew that I was not resisting him, but instead welcoming it.

 

It was after his orgasm, and three of mine, later that he shifted gears and his demon blood went dormant again. He was shocked, scared, relieved, and still horny if the tent under the sheet was any indication. He couldn't believed he'd done it, at first he thought he'd raped me but after I assured him that he hadn't, he was only confused.

 

“Why in the hell didn't you purify my ass and snap me out of it Kagome?! I could have seriously hurt you. It was obvious that he was still more angry at himself for “risking” my safety and I held him too me to reassure him, “Inuyasha, I wasn't scared of you hurting me, I trust you completely. Besides if anything would have gotten too rough I would have stopped you.”

 

“Yeah right you couldn't……….wait I was rough with you? Oh my god Kagome are you sure you're okay?” He seemed to be inspecting me and when he peeked under the covers his face turned crimson. “Well, you look good, I mean you look okay.”

 

I laughed, there was nothing left to do, and we'd been through it all. After calming Inuyasha down, we laid in bed for hours trying to decide if this was going to change our relationship. We decided that it shouldn't seeing as how it was pure instinct that drove us to it.

 

“Kagome can I ask you a question?”

 

“Sure.”

 

“Did you like it?”

 

I felt my own face turn a deep tomato red, and once again I was unable to lie to him. “Yeah, I mean, I'd never been with anyone before but I don't think three orgasms is too bad for my first time.”

 

There was silence in the bed next to me. I didn't know if maybe that had been a bit too honest, even though it was the truth. I turned to him and he was already sitting up on my bed. “I'm sorry. I didn't mean to rob you of your first time……..even though I find it hard to believe that you were a 28 year old virgin.”

 

I swatted his arm, “You didn't rob me of anything, I always wanted my first time to be special and it was; besides at least now I won't die a virgin.”

 

He gave me a smile before swooping me into his arms and towards my bathroom, “We have to get you cleaned up, I smell some blood on you.”

 

Laughing I teased, “What's the matter little Inu can't stand the smell of a little blood?”

 

“Kagome! You know that I don't like it, especially when it's coming from you.” What had started out as an innocent shower quickly turned into something more when he was sponging off my inner thigh. Maybe I was ovulating or maybe it was just years of pent up frustration from only masturbating but something about the slow circles he was making with the occasional brush from his claws sent shivers down my spine.

 

He straightened himself and pushed me up against the wall of the shower. “Kagome, did you like what I was doing?” His claws brushing up against both of my legs and I found it difficult to speak so I only nodded my head. He kissed my neck, “I can smell the arousal on you.” For some reason that was like a shock treatment, I grabbed whatever will power I had left and grabbed him and pushed him up against the opposite wall.

 

“Inuyasha it isn't fair to tease.”

 

“Who said I was teasing?”

 

And another great orgasm later we stumbled out of the shower and both called into the office, seeing as how it was an hour till we were suppose to be there.

 

Six servings of ramen later and eggs for me, we decided that it would probably be best if we remained friends and just acted like nothing had changed. Disappointed as I was I knew that his human heart still belonged to Kikyo and he still loved her.

 

So when I walked him to the door that morning, we hugged, he kissed my temple and told me to call him before walking out the door.

 

When he came over the next time somehow things ended up in my bed again and I told him that it would be alright to just be friends with benefits. Yeah I was that stupid but I loved him and I knew what his demonic blood would do if he didn't get that frustration out of him.

 

At first he was totally against the idea, saying it was so unfair to me and that maybe we shouldn't see each other. But even that didn't last long, two days later he was back and things were back.

 

And that's how things had been for the last four months. I thanked the gods that I had been on birth control, I would have hated to end up pregnant and ruin his relationship with Kikyo. Speaking of which he told her he would have to think about changing into a human, which seemed to pacify her for the time being, even allow him to touch her again.

 

He only told me little bits of information about her now. Maybe it was because he could tell that I really didn't want to hear about her. It was tough at times not to get jealous and when it finally hit me that I really loved him, not just as a friend, I cried for two days straight, blaming myself for being such a fool to put myself in that situation.

 

My phone rang startling me out of my thoughts. I went to it and answered, “Hello?”

 

“Hey Kagome, it's me. Listen I left my jacket somewhere in you apartment can you find it for me so I can just stop by and pick it up?”

 

His voice seemed different somehow, but I knew that maybe he was just feeling guilty about cheating on Kikyo. He'd been this way for almost a week now. “Yeah sure thing, I'll see you in a bit then.”

 

We hung up and went on a wild goose chase trying to locate the missing jacket. We really had to be more careful about where we put our clothes. I finally spotted the jacket thrown behind one of the chairs in my dining area. Picking it up I noticed it was a bit heavier on one side.

 

Curiosity got the better of me and I reached in thinking it was only his wallet when my hand closed around a small velvet box. I pulled it out and my suspicions and fear was confirmed. I opened the box and inside was a large princess cut diamond on a platinum band framed on both sides by two red rubies. I felt my eyes water and the tears roll down my cheeks.

 

He was going to ask her to marry him.
