InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Scandalous ❯ Sold ( Chapter 11 )

Chapter 11: Sold

 

Aine shot up in her futon and looked around in a panic. She had a horrible nightmare. First a man had tortured and killed all her friends right in front of her eyes then he was about to get to her, but she jerked awake. She felt tears come to her eyes and she looked around for someone in the room. She was alone.

 

She stood up and went down the hall to what she knew was Dustin's room. She opened the door and entered the room. “Aine…” She heard him mumble and she thought she was caught. He turned on his side and continued sleeping.

 

She closed the door behind her and knelt down next to him. “Dustin?” she called out softly. She shook him gently wanting him to wake up.

 

He rolled on to his back and opened his eyes. He looked up at Aine and sat up. “What's wrong Aine?” he asked still waking up.

 

“I had a nightmare. I'm sorry to wake you so late, but can I lay with you?” Aine asked. Dustin nodded and scooted over to give Aine room to lay down. Aine laid back and Dustin wrapped his arm around her.

 

“Thank you Dustin,” Aine whispered.

 

“No problem. Maybe we should make this a routine,” Dustin teased.

 

“Maybe we should,” she smiled and leaned up to kiss his cheek. Her lips touched his cheek and he wanted to pull her to him and kiss her senseless.

 

“Good night Dustin,” she said before falling to sleep.

 

“Good night, my love,” he smiled and fell asleep too.

Aine awoke and looked up to see Dustin smiling down at her. “How long have you been up?” she asked.

 

“Maybe an hour or so,” he stated.

 

“If you keep staring at me like that you'll get tired of looking at me,” she teased.

 

“I could never get tired of looking at you. It's impossible,” he smiled. Aine blushed and looked down. Did he really just say that? She was so embarrassed.

 

“What happened to you yesterday?” she asked not looking at him.

 

“I have no idea. I got really angry and I got really angry and felt this power run through me. I really don't know where it came from or anything,” Dustin stated.

 

“I'm pretty sure that isn't normal,” Aine joked looking up at him.

 

“You're one to talk, dog girl,” he smirked pulling at her right ear. She swiveled them back against her skull and pouted at him.

 

“Come on we better get up before the others figure out you weren't in your bed,” he said looking at anywhere but her face. She just looked so cute like that, he couldn't stand it. He didn't think he could look at her without doing something to her.

 

“But I'm still tired,” she whispered and rubbed her face against his chest.

 

Dustin chuckled and patted her head gently. Being so close to her was really starting to affect him in a way that he wasn't ready to share with her yet. He backed away from her and began to sit up. Aine rolled on to her back and stared up at Dustin's back. She pulled her sleeping yukata together and sat up too.

 

“Thanks for letting me stay here last night,” she smiled.

 

“It was no problem. I liked having a warm body next to me,” he said.

 

Aine pushed off the blanket and said, “I don't really like being here, but I'm really happy that you're here with me. I don't think I could've done it without you.”

 

Dustin smiled and leaned down. Her kissed her temple gently and said, “Wherever you go I will follow.”

 

Aine gave him a bright smiled and threw her arms around his neck. She felt his arms go around her waist and she felt her heart skip a beat. Her gold eyes met his blue-green ones. Aine blushed at how close they were, but all thoughts left her head as his lips pressed against hers. He just couldn't hold back anymore.

 

She smiled into the kiss and leaned forward. A knock was heard on the door and they jumped apart. “Breakfast is ready,” Rin's voice called out from the other side of the door.

 

“Thanks Rin,” Dustin called back staring at the door. Footsteps were heard as Rin walked away. Aine and Dustin looked at each other and looked away blushing. Why were they acting like five-year-olds?

 

“I'll go before they get suspicious,” Aine stated as she stood up.

 

Dustin grabbed her hand and asked, “Why are we doing this?”

 

“Doing what?” she asked.

 

“We act like old lovers, but I still don't know what you're feelings are toward me. Its really confusing,” he stated.

 

“I know, but it's the same with me. I guess we better start doing this the right way,” she said sitting down in front of him.

 

“What do you consider the right way?” he asked confused.

 

“I was hoping you'd know,” she sighed.

 

Dustin laughed and said, “Okay, how about you tell me what you think of me.”

 

“Why don't you?” she asked getting nervous.

 

“Because I came up with the idea,” he stated.

 

“Well that's not fair. What if we don't feel the same way about each other? I'll be humiliated,” she whispered.

 

“No you won't. I'm positive that if we'll feel the same way,” he smiled.

 

“Let's do it at the same time!” she suggested.

 

“That's the most ridiculous idea I've ever heard,” he laughed.

 

“Shut up! I'm trying to tell you that I love you and all you do is laugh!” she blurted out. Dustin stopped laughing and looked at her shocked. She felt the same way he did. She stood up and ran out of the room. She had never been so embarrassed in her life. He just stared at her, saying nothing, so she just left.

 

Aine walked down the hallway to the dinning area and sat down next to Rin. She picked up her plate and began eating not saying a word to anyone.

 

“Aine! Don't run out on me,” Dustin said running into the room. Everyone looked up at Dustin with questioning looks.

 

“What's going on Aine?” Jiro asked.

 

“Nothing at all! What could be going on?” Aine asked smiling sweetly. Dustin sat across from her and tried to get her attention by staring at her.

 

“Aine, we need to talk,” he stated.

 

Everyone looked form Dustin to Aine. This was so confusing. Aine just ignored him and sighed. She couldn't believe she blurted that out. She wasn't mad at Dustin, but she was mad at herself.

 

“Did something happen between you two?” Kohaku asked.

 

“She loves me,” Dustin smirked. Aine's head snapped up to glare at Dustin as everyone's eyes stared on her.

 

“Go ahead and make fun! I wish I had never told you!” Aine yelled and ran out of the hut. Jiro turned to Dustin and hit him in the head.

 

“Ow! What was that for?!” Dustin asked.

 

“For making Aine cry. Why didn't you stop her or something?!” Jiro growled.

 

“Why are you trying to help me?” Dustin asked.

 

“Because she loves you! I knew it from the beginning. Kohaku and Rin did too. I think you should go after her and try to talk to her. I know you love her back,” Jiro said.

 

Dustin just stood up and ran after Aine. How was he supposed to find her in this town? He heard a crashing noise and turned towards the sound. He saw Aine apologizing to a man with an evil smirk on his face.

 

“I'm so sorry sir! How much did that cost?” Aine asked.

 

“More than you could ever get,” the man smirked.

 

“Is there anything I can do to make it up to you?” Aine asked.

 

“Actually there is. I'm going to sell you to a brothel,” the man said grabbing Aine's arm.

 

“What? I can't go to a brothel! I'm still a virgin!” Aine yelled pulling on her arm.

 

“Then I'll get double the money,” the man laughed and began to drag her down the street.

 

Dustin was enraged. He ran forward with a newfound power and called out Aine's name. Aine's head snapped to Dustin's direction and struggled harder.

 

“Dustin! Help me!” Aine shouted as two men were dragging her now. Three men blocked Dustin's view of Aine, holding fighting poles.

 

“Get out of my way,” Dustin ordered.

 

“That girl is his now. So it's best if you forget about her unless you have the money,” one man spoke.

 

The two men dragging Aine stopped at a huge elegant building and pushed her to her knees in front of an old woman in an expensive kimono. “Another girl? You must have nothing better to do than to bring me women,” the woman spoke.

 

“Well this one is a virgin so I believe I get double for her,” the man who started this whole thing said. Aine looked up and saw about ten woman standing in a display room that was open for everyone to see. It was disgusting.

 

“This one is pretty. Those eyes are an unusual color,” the woman smiled holding Aine's chin up. Aine's ears popped up from her hair to reveal the fact that she was a demon.

 

“Here's your money. I'm not giving extra because she's a demon,” the woman said tossing the men a bag of money. The men left and Aine stood up. She was about to make a run for it when the brothel owner pushed her into the display room.

 

This wasn't happening. It couldn't be happening! Men crowded by the bars that locked the women in. “This is happening,” she whispered.

 

Dustin stood over the men's unconscious bodies and ran to where he saw Aine being taken. He pushed his way to the front of the crowd of men and saw Aine bowing her head in the center of the room. How was he going to get her out of this?

 

“Aine?” he called out and she looked up at him. She crawled over to the bars and gripped them.

 

“Help me Dustin. I don't want to be in here,” she begged.

 

“Tell me what I should do,” he stated.

 

“Buy me! Please buy me back! I don't want my first time to be with a perverted old man!” she yelled.

 

“Alright! I'll be right back. Don't worry I'll come back for you!” Dustin said and ran to the entrance of the brothel.

 

“Hello sir! Which woman would you like to have this morning?” the old woman smiled.

 

“How much for the demon girl?” he asked.

 

“500,” the woman stated. He didn't have that much. He would have to get it from the others. He only had around 300 coins.

 

“I'll pay you 800 if you don't sell her to anyone else! I want a virgin,” he said.

 

“You have yourself a deal. Hurry back soon,” the woman smirked as Dustin ran off. Aine watched Dustin run away from the brothel and sat back. She was never going to make it out here a virgin. Why was he leaving? Why didn't he buy her? If he had bought her they could've escaped or something, but instead he just left.

 

Aine crawled to the dark corner of the room as men continued to stare into the bars as they passed by.
