Chapter 4

After allowing Kagome to finish with "dessert," InuYasha was ready for the main course. "Kagome . . ." he slipped his hand beneath her chin and tilted her head up.

She smiled up at him.

Despite the cold atmosphere of the cave, they'd both warmed up considerably. Her face was flushed, and her skin was damp with perspiration.

He, too, was hot and sweaty, and thanks to the whipped cream, a little sticky. "Get up here," he reached out for her hand and helped her to her feet.

"Had enough?" she asked.

"No." He grabbed her hips and pulled her flush against him.

"Well, well," she said, "is that Tessaiga in your pocket or are you just happy to see me?"

He stared at her. "What?"

She shook her head. "Nothing. It was a bad joke."

He caressed the side of her face, wrapping his other arm around her waist. "You feel good," he said.

"So do you," she blushed. She was still wrapped in her blanket.

He ran his thumb along her lower lip, relishing in the feel of his skin against hers. She looked away from him.

"What is it? Do you wanna stop?"

She shook her head. "No, it's just . . . I keep waiting for my mom to come in and say, `Kagome, it's time to get up. You're gonna be late for school.'"

He laughed to himself. "No, it's not a dream," he said. "It's better than that."

She smiled at him. "I think so, too."

They regarded one another. Who was going to be the first to make the next move?

"I wish . . ."

"You wish what?" Kagome asked.

"I wish I knew something really smooth to say that would get you outta this blanket." He squeezed her a little tighter.

She giggled, then pushed herself away from him. "Ask and ye shall receive." She unwrapped herself and let the blanket drop to the ground.

A low growl rose from the back of his throat.

She was perfect. Flowing, dark hair, falling about her neck, shoulders and back; smoky brown eyes. Pale, smooth skin and perky, ample breasts; a flat plane of a stomach; a nicely rounded behind. And who could forget those long, long legs and that soft, secret place in between . . . He advanced on her.

"Now, hold on, InuYasha," she held her hand up in front of her, as if to stop him.

He growled again. "Come here," he waved his hand towards him.

"In a minute." She backed away from him.

"Not a minute. Now."

She continued to back around the cave in circles. "Patience is a virtue."

"I'm not feeling very `virtuous' right now."

"InuYasha . . ."

"Kagome . . ." he matched her whiny, teasing tone.

"Behave yourself," she said.

He wet his lips and reached for her, eager to relieve the ache in his loins.

"Sit!"

He crashed face-first onto the floor of the cave. "Kagome!"

She stood over him, her arms folded. "I warned you," she said.

He growled, pushing himself up from the floor.

She put her foot on his back. "Did I say you could get up?" she asked.

He swatted her foot away. "Tease," he spat out.

She took a step away from him. "Don't make me get the whip."

He sat up and crossed his arms. Just what was she playing at?

She crouched down in front of him, brushed the hair back from his face. "Are you mad at me?"

He scoffed. "You `SAT' me."

"You GROWLED at me."

"What'd you expect me to do?"

She withdrew her hand and sat down, pulling her knees up to her chest. "I dunno," she said.

"Feh." He looked away from her.

"I guess maybe . . ." She shook her head then sighed, and put her forehead down on her knees.

"If you weren't ready, you just should've said so."

"I'm READY," she said. "I mean, look at all this stuff." She gestured to all the "stuff" she'd pulled out of her backpack.

"That's just `stuff,'" he said. "Very WEIRD stuff."

She looked up at him, resting her chin on her knees. "That's what they use in all the videos. I thought you'd LIKE it."

"I'd like being manacled, masked, whipped and sodomized?"

"Well . . ." she shrugged.

"Kagome!"

"All right! Maybe not the dildos, but . . ."

"But what!"

She sighed again. "I just wanted this to be a memorable experience. Something we could tell our kids about."

He stared at her, an eyebrow raised.

She waved her hands. "Well, not right now," she said. "Kids right now would be very bad. I'm still in middle school. We live in different time periods. We've got that whole Naraku/jewel shard thing, battling hordes of evil demons and stuff . . .That's why I'm on the Pill."

"`Pill?'" he repeated.

"THE Pill," she said. "It's a form of contraceptive. It's so people can . . ." she caught his gaze then blushed.

"It's so `what?'" he asked.

"It's so people can . . . can m-"

"Mmm?" he said.

She laughed somewhat shyly to herself. "It's so people can make love without the girl getting pregnant."

"Oh," he said. "That's useful."

She nodded. "Yeah . . ."

"Kagome?"

"Mm-hmm."

"Do you EVER want kids . . . with me?"

"Well, I already told you I wanted to tell them about our first time together . . . excluding all the sex toys, of course. I don't think any child needs THAT much information about their parents."

He smiled to himself. "Even with me being the way I am?"

She gave him an odd look. "What're you talking about, InuYasha?"

"You know," he said, "a half-breed. Do you really want kids that . . . that aren't NORMAL? That won't . . . can't fit in?"

"InuYasha . . ."

"I mean, I'm sure there's gotta be some normal guys on the other side of the well. Ones that wanna be manacled, masked, whipped and sodomized . . . You know, humans."

She laughed out loud. "Not everybody likes that, InuYasha. I think it's mainly my grandpa. He's got this weird fetish thing. You should see some of the magazines in his room..."

"`Fetish?'"

"Never mind." She stood up, then sat down beside him.

He glanced down at her.

"I like you the way you are, InuYasha." She linked her arm in his, resting her head on his shoulder. "I may not always like the way you TREAT me. And you may piss me off to no end with `Bitch this' and `Bitch that' and `NO, you can't go home. I don't care if you are out of tampons.'"

He laughed to himself. She actually did a fairly good impression of him.

Her grip on his arm tightened. "But I love you, InuYasha."

His heart stopped.

"ALL of you," she said. "Half-demon, full demon, human . . . they're all part of you. And how can I hate something that's a part of you?"

"Kagome . . ."

"You're a little harder to live with in your other modes, but . . ."

Speaking of harder . . .

"But if you say YOU care about me, then they have to care about me, too, right?"

He nodded. "Except for the demon," he said. "He only cares about survival."

She scooted closer to him, her thigh touching his. "But mating's part of survival, right?"

He laughed to himself. "I guess you could say that."

She cupped the side of his face in her hand, looked him directly in the eye. "Then let's do something that'll make all three of you happy."

"Yeah?" he asked softly.

"Yeah." She leaned in and brushed her lips against his.

He growled at her.

"Don't make me get the whip."
