Chapter 3: The confessions

The soft pink glow of the morning sun lazily began to rise up over the hill tops in the distance. When the first calm rays danced across Inuyasha’s face his eyes popped open. He sat up quickly, sniffing the air. In a fraction of a second he was on the ground, bounding towards the woods. His woods. “Time to hunt,” he grumbled to himself. Kagome really wasn’t much of a cook, but never-the-less they needed to eat and fresh meat would be desired for lunch. Besides, he didn’t want to see his koibito going without. Not that she ever would. She only needed to go back to her time and would have her fill of whatever food she wanted. But still, he was the provider and he had never been known for shirking in his duties.

*******

Kagome woke up, and yawned and stretched. She glanced down at the ball of fluff next to her. Shippou was still fast asleep, and snoring softly with a small drop of drool in the corner of his mouth. She smiled to herself. Although Shippou had his own futon and loved their new hut, he was still too skittish about it all. The battles with Naraku had a rather profound effect on the little boy. He seemed rather content to continue to enjoy his adoptive mother’s closeness. Although, Kagome thought that at some point he would need to start sleeping in his own futon. He was growing up some, and it was becoming a matter of room and appropriateness.

She gently reached down and softly scratched the soft red-brown hair that adorned the top of the little head. “Shippou, it’s time to get up,” she cooed.

Shippou let out a yawn that would have caused him to swallow his own head had he opened his mouth any further. He rubbed his green eyes and looked up at Kagome. “Kagome-okaasan, good morning.” He had adopted the title for her because it just seemed to fit the situation and Kagome found it adorable.

“I need to make the bed and get breakfast started. Why don’t you go out and get the fire wood?” Kagome asked, lovingly patting him on his head.

The little youkai’s eyes lit up, “Yeah, okay!” Instantly awake, he skipped out the door. He always loved it when he felt like he was being useful.

A small amount of time had passed, and the meal was almost complete, when Inuyasha burst through the door, carrying a rabbit that had been cleaned and dressed.

“I got this for lunch,” he said with a shy smile.

“Thanks, Inuyasha, I can use it to make a yummy stew,” she said as she took the rabbit and handed him a bowl of egg drop soup. He took the bowl and plopped down in front of the fire.

“Say, Kagome, when are ya gonna go back to your time and get more ramen? I’m tired of this crap,” Inuyasha scoffed.

Kagome’s eyes narrowed and darted in his direction, “I-N-U-Y-A-S-H-A!!!” She paused to take a deep breath.

InuYasha gave her a look like a deer caught in head lights as she continued to yell, “If you don’t like my cooking, than you can go find food somewhere else!” She balled her fist at her sides as her body stiffened.

“What!? I didn’t say that, stubborn. I just like a little variety, geezzz!”

Shippou closed his eyes and shook his head as the two continued to argue.

Those two are always at it, he thought as he stood up and then yelled as loud as he could, “OKAAAAAAAA!”

Finally snapped back to reality, they both looked over to the little fox.

“Yes, Shippou?” she asked.

“I’m going to go play with the village boys,” he informed then as he stuck his nose in the air and slowly began to stride out the door.

“Ok! Don’t get into trouble,” she told him but there was no answer. When the two where alone they gave each other a quick glance and went back to what they were doing in silence.

When InuYasha finished with his meal and Kagome got the stew started, the young girl spoke up, “Inuyasha, why don’t you go see if any of the village men need help with anything.”

“Ahhhhhh, come on, Kagome. I don’t want to…”

She glared at him in response.

“Oh-kay,” he grumbled. “Fine, I’ll go.” He rolled his eyes as he got up and headed out the door.

She waited a moment to make sure he was good and gone. She reached over and grabbed the basket containing her soaps, and walked out the door as she headed for a hot spring that she knew the villagers didn’t use.

************

I nuYasha did as Kagome had asked, although he wasn’t able to find any villagers who needed help. Not that he had looked that hard anyway. Instead, he decided on a run, as it always calmed his soul. Feeling the wind rushing through his hair gave him a sense of freedom. As he ran, an intriguing scent caught his nose, causing him to stop dead in his tracks. The sweet smell called to him and slowly he began to follow, where it lead him to a hot spring. He hid behind a bush just out of sight. He felt his self control starting to waver, as he watched the young girl bathe. A wild burning ran through his body and he grabbed his chest, trying to calm it. It felt like needles were stinging him from the top of his head to the tips of his toes.

Kagome sighed and leaned her back against a rock, enjoying the soothing bubbling water. InuYasha, why couldn’t I have found you before Kikyou? Why can’t you love ME? I may be a weak human, but I’m not the weakest…She had lost herself in her thoughts, when she suddenly felt a clawed hand softly touch her shoulder. She froze as the hand ran across her collar bone and up the side of her face, turning her head to the direction of the hand’s owner.

“InuYa-” She was cut off when his lips softly pressed hers in a kiss. There was nothing fancy or sexual in the kiss. It was just sweet and filled with so much love. Kagome felt close to fainting, as InuYasha scolded himself.

You fuck-tard! Now she’ll hate you for sure. That’s it, InuYasha, scare her off so she’ll never come back. You don’t deserve her. I just know I’m gonna get sat for this, but her lips are so soft… He slowly pulled away and gazed for a moment into her soft brown eyes. Overwhelmed and mad at himself, he stood and quickly was gone, leaving her alone again. Kagome tightly closed her eyes as a tear escaped, falling into the water. She just knew he was remembering Kikyou, and lost himself to her memory. And he was probably disgusted when he realized it was just her, Kagome.

**********

When lunch time came, Kagome stood on the hut’s small porch and called out to her charge, “Shippou! Lunch!” She saw Kaede stepped out of her own hut. “Oh, Kaede. Please join us for lunch, I need to talk to you.”

The old miko smiled and nodded in response as she came over to her.

Shippou, with a rather large smile, blushed as he bounced up to the hut.

Kagome smiled at the boy and together the three of them went into the hut.

After everyone was settled, with a bowl of stew, Kagome began, “Kaede, would you mind watching Shippou for a few days?”

Shippou argued, “NO, KAGOME! Don’t go…”

Kagome gave him a look that brooked no argument and the boy sat quietly as she finished what she had wanted to say to the old woman. “I want to get some supplies and get a wedding gift for Miroku and Sango.” It was customary to leave a newlywed couple alone for one week, but all the same she wanted to have enough time to get the right gift for her friends. “Anyway, I would really like to go see my mother.”

“Well, of course I wouldn’t mind watching such a fine young man,” the old miko answered, giving Shippou a smile and a pat on the head. She looked questioningly at her young miko friend and asked, “This wouldn’t have anything to do with a certain hanyou, would it?”

Kagome gave her a confused look. Did she happen to see InuYasha kiss me? Oh, Kami, I hope not.

The old miko didn’t say anything; she just gave Kagome a knowing smile.

“Kagome-okaasan, when are you going?” Shippou asked, hoping this time he wouldn’t anger his mother.

“After lunch,” Kagome answered.

“OOOOHHHHH!!” Shippou whined as Kagome gave him the same ’be quiet’ look. Shippou shut his mouth and looked down. Suddenly perking up, he said, “HEY!! Will you bring me back some of that chocolate stuff? Please?”

Kagome giggled and smiled at the boy, “Have I ever forgotten?”

“No, never!” he responded and with that he knew all was forgiven.

**********

InuYasha returned to Kagome’s hut later that night to find it empty. “What…where the hell?’’ he said. Running over to Kaede’s hut, he burst through the door, startling the old miko and the little kitsune.

“Babaa!!” he roared. “Where the hell is she?!” the hanyou demanded as Shippou rubbed his eyes.

“Damn it, InuYasha! I was having a good dream for once!”

“Shuddup, twerp!” InuYasha yelled.

“Inuyasha, What brings you here?” Kaede said calmly, although she was very irritated by his behavior. She had no idea why she even asked him that because she already knew.

“WHERE…THE…FUCK…IS…KAGOME?!&rdqu o; He was working himself up into a rage as they ignored his question.

Fiannlly having enough, Kaede answered, “She went home to see her mother, but InuYasha…..” She stopped because he was already gone. I really wish those two would hurry up and marry already!! she thought irritably. “Go back to sleep, Shippou,’’ she said as she rolled over and tried to sleep.

**********

InuYasha burst through the door and sniffted. All the scents of her family were old which puzzled him, but the fresh sent of Kagome told him that she was here and alone. He followed her scent and the very soft sound of music to the bathroom. Stopping at the door, he stood there, and listened for a moment. He figured she had those small music making things on, that were attached to a small object, over her ears. He heard her voice and was so stunned by what he heard. He had never heard her sing before and the beauty of her voice astounded him. Then the words of the song hit him, like a knife wound in his heart.

“I’ve been waiting all day here for you babe,

So why don’t you come sit and talk to me?

And tell me how we’re gonna be together always…

“Hope you know that when it’s late at night,

I hold on to my pillow tight

And think of how you promised me forever…

“I never thought that anyone

Could make me feel this way,

“Now that you’re here, boy, all I want

Is just the chance to say.

“Get out, right now!

It’s the end of you and me!

It’s too late and I can’t wait,

For you to be gone…

‘Cause I know about her and I wonder

How I bought all the lies…

You said that you would treat me right

But you were just a waste of time…”

He heard her pause and begin to sob, and he could smell her tears. He slunk back out of the door, and making sure that nothing seemed to be disturbed, he jumped into the tree just outside her window.

Kagome got out of the tub and wrapped a towel around her body. She walked into her room, absentmindedly closed her curtains, and turned around. She stopped and looked back at the window behind her ’Did I just see what I thought I saw? She stepped towards the window, and peeked out. Seeing nothing but the tree branches swaying in the breeze, she shrugged as she turned and prepared for bed.

**********

InuYasha slowly opened the window to Kagome’s room. He made sure she had been deeply asleep, before making his way into her room. He watched her in repose for a moment, taking in her beauty. He gracefully leapt from the open window to crouch next to her bed. She was lying on her belly with her face turned in Inuyasha’s direction, a piece of hair covering her face. He leaned in and took a deep breath. Her scent was heavenly, and he shuddered when he caught a trace of something. She’s fertile… he thought, shaking his head as if that would cause the scent and his overwhelming feelings to go away. The arousal he felt, was becoming undeniable, but it was too late to turn back now.

He swept the loose hair back, totally revealing her soft features. His claws lightly tickled her face, causing her to furrow her brows. He leaned in again and kissed the angry brow as if it would calm it. When it did, he whispered softly, “Kagome, my love. Please wake up.”

She slowly opened her eyes to see him, sitting there next to her bed.

“InuYasha? What are you doing here?” she whispered as she stretched her arms over her head, covering the small smile that graced her lips with her arm.

“Kagome, we have to talk,’’ he began. “I can’t do this anymore… This going back and forth.”

Suddenly she was mad. “Is THAT what you came to talk to me about? I should have known. Shit, Inuyasha, I only came to see my family and…”

“Damn it, Bitch! That’s not what I meant!”

“Don’t talk to me like that!” Kagome narrowed her eyes at him.

“Well, maybe if you would listen to me for one fucking minuet.” InuYasha glared at her.

“Don’t make me say it…” she warned.

“NO! NO! NO! Wait let me expl…” InuYasha cried.

“Ssssiiii…” She never got the chance to finish as he quickly grabbed her face with both hands, pulling her face close, and passionately kissing her on the lips. Slowly, he pulled away as they looked into each others eyes.

Finally Kagome spoke, “InuYasha, you said YOU can’t do this any more?” She tried to rein in her hurt and anger. Failing miserably, she spat, “The only reason you even keep me around is because I look like Kikyou! I’m your living picture, plus I have her soul!” Kagome reached up and touched her left cheek. “That and this damned mark she left on me!!” She began to frantically scratch at it.

InuYasha grabbed her hand to stop her.

“Geezzze! Calm down already, Wench! Is that what you think?” he said as he let go of her hand to rub his thumb on the tiny blue lighting bolt shaped mark. “It’s beautiful. But, Kagome…“ He paused, as he looked gently in her eyes, hoping she would understand what he had to say. “Yes, I loved Kikyou and… I always will. But…”

“I knew it!!” she cried. “Why are you doing this to me?! I don’t like knowing that your love belonged to her and never would belong to me, but I was happy just being with you in any way I could. What are you going to tell me, I can’t come back and you only want the jewel?!” she ranted as tears poured their way out of her eyes.

She loves me? The hanyou blinked as it hit him. Oh, sweet kami, what did I ever do to deserve this beautiful creature? Inuyasha thought.

“Whoa!! Just hold on a fucking minuet!” Classic InuYasha fashion, he grabbed her head with his hands to hold it still so he could look her in the eye. “Yes, I love and loved her,” Kagome winced at that comment but he continued, “She was the first person that ever showed me that it was okay to care for someone other than myself. And for that I’ll always thank her. But she’s gone and you’re here. I told you before, Kagome is Kagome. And I’ve fallen in love with YOU!!”

Kagome turned her head away as much as she could with it still in InuYasha’s grasp. “But that still make’s me your second choice,” she said softly.

“NO!” he almost shouted at her. “I never loved Kikyou like I love you. I would never wish to change a thing that has happened with you, or Kikyou. She got me ready for you. Do you understand? I LOVE YOU AND ONLY YOU!!”

Tears were once again streaming down her cheek, as she said, “I love you too, InuYasha.”

He gently pulled her head towards him as he leaned in, softly placing his lips on hers in a tender kiss. Both their hearts began to race as he teased her lips with the tip of his tongue, silently pleading with her to allow him to taste her. Slowly she obeyed and let his tongue in to caress hers. She sighed and buried her hands into his thick silver hair, Pulling him deeper into the kiss, she lightly ran the tip of her tongue across his fangs. A deep rumbling growl escaped his throat as the crippling feelings washed over him.

Kagome broke the kiss, her breathing just as ragged as his. She felt like she was watching someone else as she untied the knot that held his fire rat haori closed. He let it drop to the floor as he watched in amazement as she pulled his inner kimono free from his hakama, opening it, and letting it fall to the floor. She looked in awe at his slender, yet, muscular build, running her hand over his blessed torso. She sighed with desire as she leaned forward, kissing it. InuYasha threw his head back, moaning softly as he placed his hand on her hip. She felt so soft and warm like her lips had been.

Leaning back, and holding the covers up, she invited him into bed with her. He climbed in, nestling himself on top of her as she opened her legs for him. He kissed her and she moaned into his mouth when she felt his member press up against her. His kiss was as deep and demanding as his desire for her.

Sitting up and back on his hunches, he reached out and slowly began to lift the lavender tank top off, exposing her firm breasts. Leaning forward, and supporting himself with one hand, he cupped her breast with the other. InuYasha looked at her, admiring her beauty, and Kagome had the feeling he was studying her as if to commit every inch of her body to memory. Rubbing a calloused thumb lightly against her nipple, he growled with pleasure at the way both her nipples hardened almost immediately in response to his touch. He leaned in and trailed a line of soft butterfly kisses down her breast, and taking it into his mouth, he gently sucked and nipped the hard nub. Kagome grabbed his head, and arching her back, she let out a blissful cry. He looked up and blanketed her. Face to face, he kissed her long and hard, giving their tongues a chance to dance together. Breaking the kiss, they looked deep into each others eye’s.

“Kagome?” he’s raspy voice finally came.

“Hmmm?’’ It was all she could get out.

“If we do this it will be forever. Inu youkai mate for life. Will you be my mate? Will you marry me?” he whispered softly, although he knew she could hear him by the look on her face. He had thrown in the human meaning of being mated because he had overheard Sango and Kagome talk dreamingly about being proposed to.

“Yes, Inuyasha, I will be your mate. I’m yours, forever…” she said softly as a tear trickled down her cheek.

His kiss was hot and demanding, and their skin felt as if it were burning where they touched. As he continued to kiss her, Kagome untied the knot to his hakama and began the push it down around his hips. Sitting up, he grabbed her hands, pulling them away. Smiling, he got up and let his hakama pool at his feet before stepping out of them.. Kagome stared in shock at his lower regions, her eyes widening at the size of him. He kicked his hakama towards the other forgotten pieces or clothing and climbed back into bed with her.

He began to kiss her neck below her ear, trailing little kisses down her neck to the white gold chain that held the shikon jewel. He gently pulled on it and she tensed fearing the worst. He then let it go and nibbled her collar bone as she mentally slapped herself for thinking what happened with Kikyou would happen with her. She soon forgot that thought when she felt him suckle her breast.

He drew little circles around her nipple with his tongue and groaned. He wanted to taste her so bad, he almost couldn’t see. Leaving her breast, he continued his way down her stomach, licking and kissing her sweet tender flesh. When he reached her pajama bottoms, he gently removed them and tossed them on the floor. He went lower, biting and sucking her hip bone, before pausing.

“This might hurt a little, but not for long. Ok? It’s part of becoming mates.” InuYasha was glad the old flea had taught him all of the Inu Youkai traditions, rituals, and laws. He was told, a mark needed to be placed to signify his claim on her. The blood he would clean from the wound would incorporate her scent into his. This was called “male scenting“.

“Okay…” she said breathlessly, although she was a little worried.

He growled in a way she never heard as she suddenly felt an intense stinging pain on her right side. She screamed in shock and pain, and looking at the hanyou, she noticed that he was biting her directly on her hip bone.

Kagome frowned as he gently licked her hip. “Arrrr. What is that for?”

He continued to lick and suck the wound until it was no longer bleeding, before finally answering, “I’m marking you, so other youkai know your taken. I’m sorry if it hurt.” He kissed the spot he bit as if to show his words were true.

She laid her head down and sighed. “It’s okay... Oooohhhhh!” She could hardly think of, or care about the pain in her side as she felt the Inu prince begin to lick between the lips of her virgin area. He nibbled and gently flicked his tongue across the area that seemed to get the most reaction out of her. Her scent was driving him wild with desire, and it caused his youkai to ebb its way to the surface, but he kept it down. He heard her breathing become irregular and her moans came less and less. Her legs slightly tensed. As he sensed all this, it threw his body and mind into overdrive. He wanted to do whatever it took to bring her pleasure. And he did, by giving her sensitive spot all the attention he felt it deserved.

She felt as though she was spiraling into darkness as the tightness increased in her lower body. She was breathless with desire. Desperately she grabbed at his ears as she felt his lips devour her. A sudden explosion of pulsating pleasure coursed throughout her body. She could feel her inner walls contract as she was freed from the tension. Kagome let out a soul shattering cry as the waves of pleasure overwhelmed her. Inuyasha could feel her tense and contract beneath his lips, and he drank the nectar of her body. It was unlike anything he had ever tasted. It was sweet and bitter all at the same time.

When he felt her relax, and let go of his ears, he moved back up slowly. Kissing every part of her body, he stopped at her breasts to indulge himself in the feel and taste of her beautiful nipples. He moved up her chest to her neck, her face, her lips.

She could smell and taste herself on his lips, and somehow it made her feel possessive of him. She wrapped her hands around to his back and sighed as his hard phallus found her opening. He looked into her eyes, as if waiting for her to object. He knew that it would hurt, and that she would bleed, and he wondered if she knew.

“Kagome?” he whispered like a frightened boy

“Just go slow…” was all she said as she looked in his eyes.

They kept their eyes locked on each other as he very slowly, gently, and most of all lovingly began to slide himself in her. When the pain got to be too much, Kagome tightly closed her eyes. As he finally was able to submerge his entire self, he stopped and shuddered. It was more incredible than anything he could have imagined. He leaned in to whisper into her ear. “I’m sorry it hurts, Kagome. I love you.”

“Just move slowly.” she whispered, as a tear fell from her eyes. Inuyasha wiped the tear away and slowly pulled up to repeat the slow trusting process.

She felt him slide his member into her again, qicker than the last time but still slow. He moved steadily as she dug her nails into his back. When the pain had subsided a bit as her pleasure mounted again, she was able to move a little more, pushing her hips up in time with his thrusts. She never imagined this would be happening as it was at this very moment.

InuYasha was too close to spending his lust. He knew the “female scenting” was coming, and that it will be strongest orgasm he will ever have in his life. The intensity of the first mating release, will imprint his smell on her telling other males, she was his. Plus this powerful feeling burns itself into the youkai’s mind and is a small part of what kept the male true to his mate.

He felt the orgasm building as Kagome began to scream his name. When her legs tightened around his waist, he knew it was close. His tempo sped up and his thrusts became deeper as his eye’s bled red when his youkai-self forced its way to the forefront. Somehow, he remained clear headed despite that. Suddenly, the muscles around his manhood tightened. He gritted his teeth as he looked into her face, his breathing quickening in time with her own, when she screamed out his name as she orgasmed. It was enough to release the hold he had had on himself . InuYasha thrust one more time; very hard and he held himself inside her.

Kagome opened her eyes and saw an intense look of pain on his face as he forcefully pushed himself into her again. She noticed the purple stripes on his cheeks, but she wasn’t afraid.

InuYasha let out an animalistic howl as the tension eased from his expression. The traces of youkai fading, he thrust deeply inside her as he was coming down from his high. Kagome was shocked as she could feel her body being filled with warmth.

InuYasha collapsed on top of her. He laid his head on her chest, listening as her heartbeats slowed, when she wrapped her arms around his shoulders with her hands on his head. They lay that way quietly for several minuets with their eyes closed. Finally InuYasha spoke, “Aishiteru, Kagome-chan.”

“I love you too, InuYasha.” Kagome replied. Inuyasha suddenly smiled.

“Kagome?”

“Hmmm?”

“What are your thoughts on pups?”

“I don’t know. Why do you ask?”

“No reason.” and they splipped off to sleep.

A/N: Ok folks my first lemon!! Let me know how I did. The song Kagome sang was “Leave(get out)” by Jojo. Also thanks bunches to my beta, Kira.

(You’re welcome! ^_^)
