InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Romance Novel ❯ It's On Now ( Chapter 7 )

Chapter 7: It's on now!

 

Inuyasha awoke to the smell of breakfast being cooked. He looked around his room and noticed that Kagome's clothes were folded on his desk. Was she parading around his apartment naked? He turned to face the other side of his bed and saw a body imprint in the sheets. He ran his hand over it and smiled. He dug is nose into the pillow and found that it smelled just like Kagome. He sat up and slowly started getting ready for the up coming day.

 

After he was dressed he walked out to the kitchen to see Kagome cooking breakfast. “I could wake up to this every morning,” he smiled and sat down at the kitchen table.

 

“Good morning, I hope you're hungry because I made a lot of food,” Kagome said setting a plate of food in front of Inuyasha. He nodded and dug in. Kagome went back to chopping the vegetables she needed for her food.

 

“This is delicious! I ought to make an honest woman out of you,” Inuyasha joked. Kagome paused in cutting and the knife sliced her index finger. She dropped the knife on the table and ran to the sink. She ran it under warm water and jumped when she felt Inuyasha come up behind her.

 

“You need to be more careful, Princess,” he sighed and walked over to the cabinet. He pulled out some bandages and walked back over to her. He wrapped his arms around her from behind and grabbed her hand. He put the bandage on her finger and then kissed her temple.

 

“I'm sorry, I guess I wasn't paying very good attention to what I was doing,” she whispered. She wished they could stay like this forever. She loved this safe and secure feeling running through her.

 

Inuyasha kept his arms around her, wanting nothing more than this moment. He knew that she got flustered over his comment on making her his wife and he smiled at the thought. “Sit down and I'll share my breakfast with you,” he suggested.

 

Kagome nodded and turned around in his arms. She looked down at the bandage and saw Bugs Bunny on it. She giggled and looked back up at Inuyasha. “I had no idea you liked the Looney Tones,” she smiled.

 

“Shippo picked those out. Besides they are a lot better than the plain boring ones,” he stated letting her go. He walked back to the kitchen table and sat down. “So was my bed comfy?” he asked.

 

Kagome blushed and sat down across from him. “I didn't mean to sleep there. I'm sorry. You just looked kinda cold and lonely so I climbed in beside you,” she said not looking at him.

 

“It's perfectly fine as long as you didn't violate me in my sleep,” he joked.

 

“It was the other way around! You held on to me as if you were going to die if you let go! I guess that means we are even then,” she smiled.

 

“Here take a bite,” he said holding the chopsticks up to her mouth. Kagome blushed at his forwardness, but took the food into her mouth anyway.

 

“Man, I am one damn good cook,” she laughed.

 

“Don't get too cocky, Princess,” he smiled, wiping some food off of her face. She let out a little hiccup and he chuckled at her.

 

“I have to leave soon. I don't have time to stop by my apartment to change or anything,” she sighed.

 

“Well, if you're comfortable with wearing your pants again today, you can borrow one of my dress shirts and just tuck it in or something,” he suggested.

 

“I guess that could work, but would you mind?” she asked.

 

“Of course not. I'd jump at the chance to have a pretty lady wearing my shirt,” he smirked and stood up. He disappeared for a couple of minutes and came back. “I got the smallest shirt I could find in there. I hope it'll be okay.”

 

“I'm sure it'll be fine,” she said and left to change.

Kagome and Inuyasha walked into the publishing building. “Thanks for doing this Inuyasha. You didn't have to walk all the way here with me,” Kagome said.

 

“Hey, what are pretend boyfriends for? Besides I want to see the look on Kouga's face when you tell him about his wife,” Inuyasha smirked.

 

“Let's do this then,” she said grabbing his hand. He laced his fingers through hers as they made it to the elevator. They got to Kagome's floor and headed to her office. Kouga was waiting outside the door. He saw Kagome and Inuyasha coming and grew angry.

 

“What are you doing here, mutt-face?” Kouga asked.

 

“Can't a man walk his girlfriend to work?” Inuyasha asked smugly.

 

“Girlfriend? What is he talking about Kagome?” Kouga questioned.

 

“Well Inuyasha asked me to be his girlfriend last night so I said yes,” Kagome smiled.

 

“But I asked you first. How can you choose him over me?” Kouga said slightly hurt.

 

“Why don't you ask your wife that question?” Kagome asked smiling sweetly. Kouga's face dropped and he looked confused.

 

“What wife? What are you talking about?” Kouga asked. As if on cue a red-haired woman knocked on the door.

 

“Sorry to interrupt. You forgot the lunch I made you,” the woman smiled.

 

“Hi there! You must be Ayame, Kouga's wife. I'm Kagome. We spoke last night on the phone,” Kagome smiled.

 

“Hi Kagome. It's nice to finally meet you,” Ayame said. Kouga grabbed his lunch bag and stomped out of the room. “What happened?” Ayame asked.

 

“Nothing really. Maybe you should ask him,” Inuyasha stated. Ayame followed after her husband and Kagome looked up at Inuyasha. They burst out laughing and fell on the couch.

 

“That look on his face was priceless. You know, I'm not even mad that he asked me out when he was married anymore. That was totally worth it,” Kagome laughed.

 

“Seriously. So does that mean I'm off the hook for being your boyfriend now?” Inuyasha asked.

 

“What? No way, dude! I'm not going to baby sit if you're going to quit on me now,” Kagome said turning on the couch to face him.

 

“I was just asking. I don't think he'll bother you anymore though,” he stated.

 

“I guess you're off the hook then. I'll baby sit Shippo one night too if you want,” she said.

 

“You're too kind of a person you know that?” he asked.

 

“Yeah well, Shippo is my new friend so I have to spend time with him,” she smiled.

 

“Fine, if you insist, I guess you could baby sit one night,” he sighed. Inuyasha put his arm around her and made her lean against his chest. She sighed contently and closed her eyes. She could live with this.

 

“Inuyasha?” Kagome asked.

 

“Yeah?” he answered.

 

“It's nothing, nevermind. I have to get to work now,” she sighed and sat up. Inuyasha nodded and leaned over and kissed her cheek. Then a knock was heard and Kagome turned to the doorway.

 

Kikyo stood there grinning at Kagome. “Am I interrupting something?” she asked.

 

“No, not at all. Kikyo this is Inuyasha. Inuyasha this is Kikyo,” Kagome introduced.

 

“Inuyasha? You mean the author?” Kikyo asked.

 

“Yup, that's me,” Inuyasha smirked. Kikyo and Kagome looked a lot alike. “Are you hungry Kikyo?” he asked.

 

“A little, why?” Kikyo answered.

 

“Would you like to have lunch with me? I don't really want to eat alone,” Inuyasha said. Kagome felt hurt by this for some reason. What did he think he was doing? He kisses her and then asks one of her friends for lunch? That just didn't make sense.

 

“But what about Kagome?” Kikyo asked.

 

“We're just friends,” Inuyasha stated. That did it for Kagome.

 

“We aren't even friends. He's one of my authors and that's it,” Kagome snapped. This was the last time she was nice to Inuyasha.

 

“If it's fine with Kagome then I'll go,” Kikyo smiled.

 

“Alright let's go then. There's a great place just down the street,” Inuyasha said leading Kikyo out of the office.

 

Kagome sat down at her desk and put her face in her hands. What the hell was wrong with Inuyasha? How cold he lead her on like that if he was just going to turn around and ask her friend out? It was on now.

 

Kagome grabbed her cell phone and called her friend Hojo. “Hi Hojo, I was wondering if your offer for dinner was still open,” she said.

 

“Of course it is Kagome!” Hojo exclaimed.

 

“Well I'd like to go with you tonight,” she said.

 

“Okay, I'll pick you up tonight at eight?” he suggested.

 

“Perfect! Let's go to a night club,” she said.

 

“Alright, I'll see you tonight then,” he smiled and hung up. Kagome hung up too and sighed. She really didn't want to go out with Hojo, but she had to play Inuyasha's game. This was going to be one long night.
