InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ The well house ❯ Chapter 3

Ok, so here comes part 3 of this odd little thing...

"He said he would come for me…."Ayumi looked out the window and saw the starlit sky above. It was Sunday night and tomorrow it was time for school again. She dreaded it and she longed to go back, wanting to see her knight in baggy red outfit. Her knight and lover with dog ears and long silvery white hair. "What kind of man is he? He can not be human, not with those ears… and he has fangs and claws to go with it. It almost like he was only half human." She sighed and moved back from the window and closed it. "Does it matter to me if he is not human?" The question was not very hard to answer - it did not matter at all, her heart told her that she loved him, more than anything in the world. She would not back down from him, no - she would not be ashamed of her feelings for him. She would tell Kagome about it, and she would not be ashamed of it, he had chosen her - he had chosen Ayumi, the little naïve and bubbling girl over the hard studying and perfect Kagome. Ayumi sighed again, she knew she should feel terrible about it, but after a weekend of hard thinking and soul searching she had decided not to feel any guilt, she would not let it take over her world. She was about to crawl into bed when she heard a tapping sound on her window. She looked and got a real shock.

Outside sat a figure with silver white hair…

She hurried and opened up to let him inside.

- At last, he whispered and jumped inside the room. He pulled the stunned girl into his arms and crushed her small form against him

- H-how did you k-know where I l-lived? she stuttered but returned the feverish hug.

- I have a very good sense of smell Ayumi-chan, whispered Inuyasha and to emphasize his point he took a deep breath, inhaling her scent, how he had missed it.

- …?

- I followed your scent from school, and tonight I could smell a breeze of honey in the air and I followed it. I needed to see you again.

Inuyasha lifted her up and carried her towards the bed and sat down with her in his lap. He caressed her face with his right hand, trying to gather some strength to tell her.

- Ayumi-chan, I also wanted to see you so I could tell you who I am, said Inuyasha.

- O-ok..

- You have probably already guessed that I am no ordinary human..

She nodded and wiggled to get a more comfortable position.

- Only half of me is human, the other half is that of a dog demon, he said with a low and shaky voice.

- D-demon?

- And I don't live around here at all…

- You live in another country?? Ayumi's heart sank to the bottom of her stomach.

- No, I live here in this country, just not yet…

- Huh?

"Fuck, this is going to make her freak out if she has not already."He cursed and took a deep breathe.

- Inside the well house where I took you the first time.. The well there is a portal to another time.

Ayumi's eyes widened and she shook her head lightly. She did not want to believe it but he had disappeared without a trace that time..

- A time portal, she choked.

- Yes, Kagome fell into the well two years ago, and she has helped me gather the shards of a certain jewel, a jewel with enormous powers. That is why she has not been able to be in school so often.

- So she has not been ill at all?

- No, she hasn't.

- Good, I was beginning to wonder if she was imagining all those diseases her grandfather called to school about, said Ayumi and let out a heavy sigh.

- I want you to come with me Ayumi.. I want you to come back with me, he said and looked into her dark eyes and drowned inside their depths.

- What about Kagome? she whispered and felt tears well up inside her eyes.

- What about her? Inuyasha was confused, what did Kagome have to do with this?

- Is she not your girlfriend?

- WHAT??!!

- Shh, keep it down or you wake my parents..

- What!! No, she is not my mate, you are.

- M-mate?

- Yes, you are my mate, and I have marked you as such, said Inuyasha and brushed the hair from her neck and revealed the bite mark. He felt her shudder a bit as his fingers stroked over it lightly.

- B-but I thought you and Kagome…

- No, she has a mate already, and it is not me. Her mate is a wolf demon named Kouga, she have been his mate for little over a year now. She is a good friend, that I admit, but she is nothing else.

Ayumi let out a small cry and she flung around his neck. "He is not her boyfriend, she is not his girlfriend.." Her body trembled as the relief washed over her and she buried her face into his neck.

- Ayumi-chan?

- I was so afraid, she whispered. So afraid that I was the one who made you the two timing bastard she have spoken of in the past, I was so afraid she would hate me for being intimate with you.

- O gods little one…

He pushed her gently into a heart warming hug. He could feel her emotions flow from her and he wanted to comfort her. But a knock on the door had him froze in place.

- Ayumi-chan, are you ok?

- M-mom? Yes, I just had a bad dream, I am ok now, said Ayumi in a hurry.

- Ok, go back to bed now, you have school in the morning…

- I will mom!

Inuyasha heard the figure disappear and he let out the breath he was holding, it had been close.

- So will you come with me Ayumi, my love?

She bit her lip. Could she abandon her life here, her family? School - no problem of leaving that hell hole. Her family - she was the middle daughter of three children, the other two being boys and she was always in their shadows.. Yes.. she could.

- Yes Inuyasha, I will come with you, she said with determination. But we will have to go now.

- That's my bitch, said Inuyasha and kissed her deeply.

"Bitch, so it is more of an endearment when it is coming from him?"she giggled and pulled her out of his arms and began packing.

- You don't need to do that, I will get you clothes when we get back to my time. I will provide for you.

- Ohh, o-ok..

He lifted her up and jumped out the window and he rushed through the city with a speed that made Ayumi dizzy. When he reached the Sunset shrine he sat her down and he opened up the door and they walked down to the well.

- Are you ready mate?

- Yes Inuyasha.

He took her in his arms again and he jumped down.

Ayumi found herself being surrounded with a purple light and then it was dark again. She looked around and saw they still were in the well. "Strange.." But then she looked up and she saw glittering stars.. There was no roof over this well. She took in a sharp breath as Inuyasha leaped out of the well.

- Welcome to the Inuyasha Forest my love, he whispered and pulled her in for a deep kiss.
