Chapter 9
Kagome woke up to the sound of someone moving about. After the sleepy fog had cleared from her mind, she opened her eyes to Kaede preparing breakfast and she jumped up, eager to help so she could be on her way. She couldn't wait for Bankotsu to meet her family, and her family to meet Bankotsu.
She had only been home one other time since she and Bankotsu started seeing each other, but it hadn't affected her nightly plans with him because she had left in the morning but was back that night. While she was there, she had filled her mother in on that fact that she was interested in someone else besides Inuyasha. Her mother had asked for details and Kagome had only got so far as telling her mother that he was much quieter and kinder than Inuyasha when said person had charged into the house shouting for her to come on and to quit being slow. She had hugged her mother and promised more details when she saw her next. Kagome was excited that she didn't have to describe anything now because her mother could see for herself.
When everyone was awake and breakfast was done, Kagome hurriedly served breakfast to her friends before giving only a small portion to herself, which she quickly ate. When she was finished, she prepared her bag for the trip home, promising to bring back gifts for everyone. Before Inuyasha could demand she wait for him to escort her to the well, she hurried out of the hut and ran towards the well.
Kagome couldn't describe the feelings of love and happiness that floated through her at the sight of Bankotsu sitting on the lip of the well with Banryuu slung casually over his shoulder. She smiled brightly as she ran towards him. When Bankotsu caught sight of her, a small smile curved his lips. He had only just set Banryuu down when Kagome launched herself at him. He deftly caught her and his chuckle was interrupted by Kagome placing her lips over his. He responded immediately and wrapped his arms around her more securely. He was pleasantly surprised when he felt Kagome's tongue run over his lip, seeking entrance to his mouth. Usually he was the one seeking entrance, not Kagome. He gave into her request for entry and tried to fight back for dominance in this kiss, and after the brief struggle Kagome put up, he was victorious.
Soon he pulled away, the need for air pressing him. He panted slightly and was satisfied to see the blush in Kagome's cheeks. His male ego couldn't help but be stroked at the evidence that his kiss had left her flustered. He smirked down at her.
"Hey, Kagome," he said in a seductive tone of voice.
Her blush deepened in color. "Hi," she said shyly in return.
"So are you ready to go?" he asked her.
"Yep," she told him confidently. "Are you?"
He smirked again. "Sure. Let's get going," he said lifting her to stand on the lip of the well.
He grabbed Banryuu before climbing up beside her and grabbing her hand. She smiled at him and he smiled back. Without any prompting from each other, they both jumped at the same time.
Bankotsu experienced the same floating feeling he had felt the night before when he had first jumped into the well. But soon it was gone and he and Kagome were standing on the well bottom in the future.
