InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The One Who Heals My Heart ❯ Chapter 12 ( Chapter 12 )

[ Y - Young Adult: Not suitable for readers under 16 ]

I’ve recently decided to continue this story, and had to change the fact that Inu and Kag were getting married so fast. So there will be some changes in each chapter form here on out. I’m also planning on changing one or two of the later songs. So here’s the new chapter!

Chapter 12

When Kagome opened her eyes the next morning, she was looking right at Inuyasha’s face, with his arms wrapped securely around her. A smiled pulled on her lips. He looked so contented. Carefully, so she wouldn’t wake him, she reached up with one hand and started to rub an ear.
A low growl came from deep in his chest. “Don’t start that. You’ve got to be too sore from last night.”
Kagome blushed and brought her hand back down. He still hadn’t opened his eyes, but she knew he was awake since he talked to her.
“Sorry if I woke you.”
Inuyasha yawned and shrugged a shoulder, then opened his eyes to look at her. “I’ve been awake for hours. It’s 9:00 you know.”
Kagome squealed. “9:00! I got to have a shower and get dressed, then I have to get back to the dorm room so I can start studying.”
Inuyasha pulled her closer and started to nibble on her mateing mark.
“You don’t have to do anything. I already told you I’d help. And besides, we still have things that we need to talk about.”
Kagome sighed in pleasure. “Okay, but let me shower and get dressed at least.”
That was when she realized she didn’t have any clean clothing here. At her distressed face, Inu smiled. “I’m sure Kaiya will let you borrow some of her stuff.”
“Can you read my mind or something?”
“No,” Inu chuckled. “I just know you too well. After being around you for two years, it’s not hard to figure out you like to put on a fresh set of underwear and clothing after showering. Heck, I do too.”
Kagome smiled. It was nice to know he knew so much about her.
“You go have your shower, and I’ll go ask Kaiya for some clothing for you.”
Kagome agreed and was soon in Inu’s bathroom. She fell in love instantly. The whole place was done in black and gold. It was beautiful. There was a four person Jacuzzi right in front a large set of windows, that had long semi see through drapes over them. On the wall opposite that was a large mirror and a counter with two sinks. Even the toilet was a marvel to look at. But the thing that caught her attention and kept it was the shower in the back of the room. There were three small step to get up to the thing. Three of the walls were done with fogged glass on ¾ of them, and just normal see through glass for the last ¼, so you could see who the person that was in there was, but none of their parts. What really got Kagome was the shower heads…. Yes heads. There were five of the things. One in the normal spot, so you can wash your hair. Then two in the wall with the other shower head, but on each side, with one just below the other. She could tell that they would massage sore and aching muscles.
She turned the water on, and got it to the proper temperature, then stepped in. She was instantly in heaven. She loved the way the water pelted her, making her unwind and her sore muscles to relax.
She was so out of it, she didn’t notice Inu come into the room. The next thing she knew, he had his arms wrapped around her from behind and his body pressed against hers. At first she was hesitant to let him see her like this. But then she remembered the night before.
He didn’t do anything more then hold her and nip at her neck. She was grateful to him for being sensitive to the fact that she was still sore from the night before. When she finished with her hair, however, he leaned his chin onto her shoulder and asked, “Need help washing your back?”
Kagome grinned. “I’d love it.”
Inu grabbed the lightly scented body wash from the cubby hole in the wall. He pored some into his hand, and lathered it. Kagome moved her hair out of his way, and he started to wash her back with light and gentle strokes. Soon he was massaging her back, since the shower heads didn’t reach that area while she was facing them.
When Kagome let out a groan, Inu smiled and asked if she liked it. The only thing she could do was nod her head yes, so he continued to massage her back and shoulders.
Kagome sighed and told her mate, “This is really nice, but we should get out of here and talk.”
“I guess your right,” Inu said. “Just wash off and then go to our room and get dressed. I want to wash my hair quickly.”
Kagome quickly rinsed off and got out. She grabbed a towel and wrapped it around herself, then went back into the bedroom and looked to the bed. On it were a red set of underwear. Kagome frowned when she recognized the whole outfit. The underwear was some that Kaiya got her, and the outfit was a pair of her favorite hip hugger jeans, and the red shirt she had gotten at the show. How did Inuyasha get some of her own clothing? He was supposed to get some from Kaiya. She understood how he’d gotten the shirt, she had given it to Kaiya to put away for her while they were on their way to the club.
Kagome didn’t want to stand there all day in only a towel, and she was getting a little cold, so she shrugged and put the clothing on. She then quickly took the towel to her hair as she walked over to Inu’s dresser, where she saw a hair brush. She hoped he wouldn’t mind her borrowing it.
As she pulled the brush through her long black tresses, Inuyasha came out of the bathroom in only a pair of faded blue jeans. He was using a towel to dry his hair. Kagome’s mouth went dry when she saw his bare chest. Inu looked up at her with a smirk.
“I’m just gonna grab a shirt and then we can talk.”
Kagome nodded her head and went back to brushing her hair. Inu made his way to his closet and walked into it.
“I hope you don’t mind that I’m borrowing you’re brush,” she called out to him.
Inu came out just pulling a red wife beater over his head.
“Why would I mind? You’re my mate now. What’s mine is yours.”
Kagome smiled and finished what she was doing by stealing one of his hair ties and putting her hair up in a bun. She then turned to him and patted the computer chair by the desk that was near her.
“I’ve always wanted to brush your hair, would you mind?”
Inu smiled. “Why would I?”
He then sat down. Kagome started to pull the brush through his long silver locks. He still hadn’t put the necklace back on, so she had to be careful of his puppy ears. But if his low growling was any clue, she was doing a fine job.
“So, how did you get these cloths?” she asked as she pulled the brush through his hair.
“Kaiya gave them to me. She said that the shirt was one that you got at the show.”
“That’s true. I went to pay for it, and the guy just gave it to me.”
“Was Kaiya there with you?”
Kagome frowned. “Ya, why?”
Inu chuckled. “All of the people that were working there for us know her and Toki. If they saw you with one of them, they would have just given to you. All of them think that Miroku is their older brother. They tend to get everything with our name on it for free. The workers wouldn’t think twice about giving a friend one silly shirt for free.”
“Okay. But what about the rest of this outfit. This is all my clothing.”
Inu shrugged. “Ask Kaiya. I just brought back what she gave to me.”
Kagome had just finished with the brushing, and didn’t know if he wanted her to leave it down or not. She had wanted to see him with a braid for ever.
“Would you mind if I braided your hair?”
Inu shook his head no. “That’s fine. Feel free to do what you wish…. As long as it doesn’t make me look like a girl.”
Kagome laughed as she started the low braid. “I don’t think anything could do that.”
Inu just smiled. When Kagome finally finished and put an elastic around the bottom to tie it off, he stood up and turned to her.
“So, everything you thought it’d be?”
Kagome smiled and told him, “And more. Your hair looks so much better after being brushed. And I gotta say, that braid is kinda sexy.”
“Thanks, I think I like being sexy in your eyes.”
Kagome smiled and grabbed his hand, then pulled him over to the bed. The two of them sat down.
“Time to have that talk,” Kagome said.
“I guess I’ll start,” Inu said with a sigh. “I should start by letting you know that every twenty years, all of us would go back to school, and either get more training in our chosen field, or get schooling for a whole new job. Shippo was the only one that did it this time. Me and the other guys thought we didn’t really need it since we had a new job with the band. But last month I realized that I needed more then that. So on Monday, I’ll be going back to get my surgeon’s license again. I missed helping people. But since I’ve been retired from that for the last ten years, I have to start all over again.”
“Does that mean what I think it means?” Kagome asked.
Inu smiled. “I’ll be going to school with you. I may even be in some of your classes. The dean is a youkia, and has made up a past for me, saying that I’ve been in a different school these past two months, and was on the waiting list. Then when one of the students dropped out, he let me transfer. Luckily for me, I saved his life once while I was working as a surgeon a while back. And I was doubly lucky that the dean and teachers of a youkia university here in Tokyo all agreed to help out. They all are old friends of mine.”
Kagome smiled. “So you’ll be living in the dorms too?”
Inu shook his head. “Naw. I like this house. Why would I leave it?”
“But all freshmen have to stay in the dorms.”
“I got special permission from the dean. Kaiya and Toki did too, but they wanted to get away from their parents. Not that I blame them.”
Kagome pouted. “And here I was hoping to stay with you.”
Inu smiled. “You can. You’re my mate now. They aren’t about to separate us. And if the Dean says it‘s okay, then the humans won‘t argue.”
“That sounds great!”
“I was thinking it’d be nice. We could do it slowly. Like over a few weeks.”
Kagome gave Inu a big hug. “If we’re really good, we could even get everything done in two weeks. That’s won’t be too long to live separately… will it?”
Inu smiled. “As long as you promise to stay with me on the weekends, then I really don’t care. Oh! And you have to spend all of your spare time with me too. That way we can decided when the wedding will be.”
Kagome grinned. “I don’t think that’ll be a problem. But we should go let my family know. They’re going to be so happy.”
“Well, why don’t we go have some breakfast with the others, then we’ll go see your family. We can even introduce the others to them.”
“Don’t you think the other’s would have already eaten by now?”
“Naw. They tend to sleep in on the weekends. They’ve gotten lazy over the years.”
Kagome laughed as they left the bed room and walked down to the dining room.

When Inu and Kagome walked through the doors, there were only four people in there. Sess, Koga, Ayame, and Shippo.
“So where‘s everyone else?” Kagome asked.
Sess grinned. “Rin is getting ready. I let her sleep while I got dressed. Miroku and Sango are fighting over who gets the shower first. They do this every morning, then end up just sharing it. I think they like to fight.”
“Kaiya and Toki are still getting dressed themselves,” Shippo said. “And the other’s aren’t here. I think Kado and Sada stayed at their friend’s houses last night. Sada called my cell to let me know to tell you all in the morning. She knew I‘d probably be the only one up that late. Or at least the only one not occupied.” He smiled at Kagome and Inu as he said this last bit. Kagome blushed. He knew what they did last night.
“Don’t worry about it Kags,” Ayame said. “We’re youkia. We could smell it as soon as you walked into the room.”
“Smelt what as soon as she walked into the room?” Miroku asked as he came in and sat down on Inu’s other side.
“That she spent the night in my room,” Inu said nonchalantly.
“Oooo! So you guys finally mated did you?”
“Who finally mated?” Sango said as she came into the room with Toki, Kaiya and Rin.
“Take a whiff of what’s floating in the air, and you’ll figure it out,” Koga said.
All four of them took a big breath. Rin’s eyes glowed with an inner light as she made her way to Sess. Sango just smiled as she sat by Miroku. Toki laughed a little and made his way to his seat.
Kaiya on the other hand went over to Kagome and gave her the biggest hug she had ever received in her life.
“I’m so happy!” she said, then bounced over to her seat next to Shippo.
“Am I going to get all these benefits of the wish too?” Kagome whispered to Inu. He smiled and nodded his head yes.
“I’ll show you how to control it when we’re on our way to the shrine.”
“You’re going to the shrine?” Kaiya asked. “Can we come? I’ve always wanted to see that tree that Uncle Juro was pinned to for all those years.”
Kagome smiled. “That was the plan. We wanted you all to come meet my family and see the place.”
“Oh,” Inu said casually. “And Kags will be moving in her over the next two weeks.”
Everyone let out a gasp.
“Two weeks?” Sango asked.
“Why wait so long?” Rin shrieked.
“Hold it!” Inu yelled. “I can see where this is going, and I’m telling you right now that Kagome and I agreed to do this. I knew Kags would need some time, and we need to talk to the dean anyway.”
Ayame smiled. “That’s so sweet!”
“Now, since that’s settled,” Sess said. “Let’s eat and get out of here. We‘ll talk the details over with Kagome‘s family at the shrine.”
Everyone agreed to this, and started to eat the large breakfast that was before them.
