(Man I’m feeling accomplished today! Again, I don’t own anything and blah, blah, blah.)
Kagome stepped from the stairs and gasped. Inuyasha was straining to break the chains around his ankles. His eyes were blood red and he had purple lightning bolts running down his cheeks. His fangs hung over his lip and his claws were horrifyingly long. His face was twisted with rage as he pulled.
The scent of roses tickled his nose instantly calming his bloodlust. He blinked the haze away and looked up as Kagome stepped closer. Salt water contaminated her scent and he collapsed to his knees. She’s okay. He couldn’t explain the relief he felt in that moment no more than he could explain the desperate urge to hold her until the tears were gone. “Inuyasha, are you okay?” She took a few steps closer. “Are you…” She seemed confused how to ask what was on her mind. “I’m okay, I’m back to myself.” She nodded and walked over to him, settling on her knees in front of him. “Why did you scream?” He asked quickly assessing her for injuries. Her face turned three shades of red and she glanced at the monk standing in the shadows. The monk had the decency to at least look innocent. “You touched her?” He growled, seeing red again. “Me, no never!” Miroku said waving his hands defensively. “Inuyasha?” Her voice drew him out of the bloodlust and he looked over at her. She giggled and the sound was better than music to his sensitive ears. “It’s okay. He’s a lecher. He didn’t hurt me.” Inuyasha nodded before glaring at the monk, “some man of the cloth.” Miroku looked offended as he laid his hand over his heart. “I’ll have you know I am…”
“Yeah, yeah, just do me a favor monk.”
“What is that my good man?”
“Keep your fucking hands to yourself.” Miroku swallowed and nodded. Kagome giggled again and patted his head. “Calm down Inuyasha.” He growled, “do I look like a dog to you?” She rubbed his ears and his whole body relaxed even as he growled. “Yeah, you kind of do!” She laughed outright and he sighed contently. Her laugh was infectious. He could hardly fight the smile that tried to claim his face. She kept rubbing his ears and he felt his eyes growing heavy. “Knock it off wench.” He muttered nowhere near as gruffly as he had hoped. His chest began to rumble with a purr and he fought the urge to kick his leg. “Why? It sounds like you like it.” She muttered quietly. He made a soft sound of disagreement before unconsciously settling his head into her lap. She stopped rubbing and looked shocked. He opened his eyes and was about to move when she smiled. The walls around his heart crumbled a little more and he felt himself melt. The smile was so sincere and beautiful it almost hurt to look at and he knew that smile would be his downfall. All he could think to do was grin back.
Sango watched the couple grin at each other like idiots and couldn’t fight her own from lighting her face. Miroku was watching with a serious expression which caught Sango’s attention. She touched his arm lightly to not startle him but she might as well have shouted his name. He jumped and looked over at her in a panic. She tilted her head towards the stairs and took his hand in hers before mounting the stairs and leaving the young couple alone.
