InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Two Lives Turned Upside Down ❯ Friends Again ( Chapter 31 )

Chapter 31: Friends Again

“Kagome...” Rin started.

 

Kagome's mouth opened slightly in preparation to defend herself.

 

Seeing this Rin spoke quickly, “Please, just let me say what I have to say.”

 

Kagome's mouth closed and she nodded her head. Rin took this as a cue to continue.

 

“I've thought a lot about you and my dad's relationship. At first I have to admit I was pretty disgusted. I mean it was like you were both betraying me, the two people I thought I could trust the most. But now that I've had the chance to cool down, and really think about it I realize that neither of you were intentionally trying to hurt me. I reacted really unfairly, and I just want to give you both a chance to explain yourselves without me jumping to conclusions.”

 

Upon seeing Kagome's face which looked quite dazed and confused she smiled and added, “In other words, Kagome, I forgive you.”

 

Kagome's face immediately lit up with a smile.

 

“Ohhh! Well that's great!!” Kagome exclaimed with a giggle and Rin couldn't help but join in too.

 

Simultaneously they got out of their seats to give each other a hug.

 

“I'm so glad you forgave me Rin. I was worried that I might have to find a new best friend” Kagome joked.

 

“Ha! Never!” Rin stated, “You can't get rid of me that easily.”

 

However their happy little reunion was interrupted as the teacher walked into the room.

 

Clearing his throat loudly enough for everyone to hear he then proceeded to say, “Kagome, Rin, as happy as I am to see the both of you getting along so well together it would be nice if you could take your seats so that I may start the lesson.”

 

Both faces crimson, they smiled apologetically before sitting down at their respective desks. The room immediately erupted into laughter as all other students laughed at Kagome and Rin being disciplined by the teacher.

 

Kagome moaned in embarrassment, placing her schoolbook in front of her face to hide her complete and utter humiliation. Rin simply slouched down in her seat with her face looking down trying to escape the laughing expressions of her peers. They both just couldn't wait to get out of that class.

 

As the class came to a close at the bell's ring Kagome and Rin agreed to meet up after school. The rest of the school day went by quickly enough and so Kagome made her way outside to find Rin.

 

“Kagome!” Rin's voice called out to her waving.

 

“Hi!” Kagome greeted Rin with a smile.

 

“Well,” Rin began “I guess that we should probably go back to my house and wait for my dad to get home. Then everything can be worked out.”

 

“Yea, I think that sounds like a good idea” Kagome agreed.

 

Taking the short walk to the house they made small talk about music, school, and other things.

 

“Ahh...we're here” Rin announced while walking through the front door.

 

Kagome followed and they made their way into the kitchen for a snack. Procuring some popcorn, chips, and drinks, Kagome and Rin decided to watch some tv while waiting for Sesshoumaru.

 

Kagome sighed happily as they watched a tv show, everything seemed to be back to normal. She was just thrilled that Rin was talking to her again and couldn't help but feel antsy about seeing Sesshoumaru.

 

*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*

 

Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes again as he tried to feign interest in whatever one of his employees were droning on about. It was extremely hard as all he could think about was his daughter Rin, and of course Kagome. The thought of Kagome's serene face brought him some joy but then Rin's expression of anger and betrayal transposed itself upon Kagome's and he felt immediate dread drop into the pit of his stomach. Rin, he inwardly sighed, if only there was a way he could explain everything to her, then she might be able to understand and forgive him. Shifting in his seat he fixed his gaze on the speaker again and realized that the presentation had taken a turn to discussing things pertaining to Sesshoumaru. Knowing that he definitely had to pay attention he pushed all thoughts other than pure business out of his mind for now.

 

Picking up his briefcase and shoving all of the paperwork inside it, his breath came out in a tired sigh. That meeting had taken way longer than he had thought it would. Looking out the window in his office he saw it was already dark. Sighing again he rolled his neck trying to rid himself of the migraine headache that had crept up on him halfway through the presentation. He just couldn't wait to get home, put his feet up, and wrap his arms around Kagome's warm and welcoming body.

 

But getting into his car and making his way to the beachhouse where Kagome was sure to be, he felt a pull in the back of his mind telling him that he should go to his home. And so making a u-turn he made his way there feeling butterflies in his stomach, he knew something awaited him there, but what?

 

Pulling up the driveway he did not notice anything unusual at first, everything looked dark, but upon closer inspection he noticed there was a faint light on in the family room. Someone must be in his house, Rin? His heart lifted at that thought and his feet seemed to move on their own accord through the house and into the aforementioned family room.

 

Sesshoumaru paused at the doorway and took a deep breath as well as saying a short prayer that Rin had in fact come home before actually peeking in the room. He saw her there. Letting out the breath that he hadn't even realized he was holding, he not only saw Rin but Kagome too. They must have been waiting for him because they had fallen asleep on the couch with the tv on, snacks and drinks carelessly left scattered on the table in front of them.

 

A rare smile graced his features as for the first time he really and truly felt happy. He had everything he needed under his roof, it was how life was supposed to be. The two people he loved the most were right in front of his eyes and he almost couldn't help going to them and waking them both up.

 

This wasn't necessary however as he noticed Kagome's eyes blink open slowly, glancing around the room before resting on Sesshoumaru's calm face. Smiling at him, yet not saying a word, she leaned over to Rin shaking her gently to wake her.

 

“What?” Rin whispered quietly as she was roused out of her sleep.

 

After her eyes had adjusted she looked for what had woken her up. Finding her father standing in the doorway all thoughts of sleep vanished as though someone had splashed cold water on her.

 

“Dad?” Rin asked while looking at him afraid of what he would say, not able to gauge exactly how he was feeling at the moment.

 

“Rin” Sesshoumaru simply answered but that was enough as Rin rushed to her him hugging him tightly.

 

Kagome watched the encounter with a big smile, happy that they were talking to each other again. She looked at Sesshoumaru's face and although his cold facade was still in place she could see the love and happiness emanating through his eyes.

 

A minute passed and they separated before the silence was broken.

 

“Well...” Kagome trailed off.

 

She felt bad for breaking up their happy little moment but it was late and Kagome knew they had a long night ahead of them but she hoped she could make it a little shorter.

 

Both Rin and Sesshoumaru looked at Kagome expectantly.

 

“Well” Kagome started again, “I guess this is as good a time as ever to explain everything from the beginning to Rin, don't you think Sesshoumaru?”

 

“Yes” Sesshoumaru agreed, “Let us all sit down and everything will be made clear before the night is over.”

 

And so they all sat down on the couch, Sesshoumaru inbetween Rin and Kagome, and enlightened Rin of everything that had happened between them. It was late at night or early in the morning before the story was done and everyone was feeling extremely tired.

 

“Wow. I never knew how serious you guys really were. I guess I reacted kind of rashly but now that I know you two truly are in love with each other I guess that's ok. I mean it'll just be kinda weird having my best friend as my stepmother but it could be kind of cool too” Rin stated.

 

Kagome blushed at the suggestion of her and Sesshoumaru getting married. They hadn't really talked about taking the relationship to that step yet. Looking to Sesshoumaru for help, she was shocked to find that he was chuckling quietly to himself.

 

“Well Rin, I wouldn't really worry about that for a while. I'm still too young to get married and we definitely haven't talked about taking that step yet.” Kagome reassured Rin, the blush still staining her cheeks.

 

Rin yawned before speaking, “Alright, I think I'm gonna go to bed, I'm beat. See you in the morning!”

 

Sesshoumaru and Kagome watched as she happily made her way up to her room before turning to each other.

 

“That worked out better than I thought it would” Kagome stated surprised.

 

“Yes I suppose it did but Rin has always been quite a forgiving person.”

 

Kagome smiled brightly before reaching for Sesshoumaru ending up in his lap before wrapping her arms around his neck and burying her face there as well. Sesshoumaru subsequently did the same, cuddling her to him tighter resting his head atop hers so that he could breathe in her calming scent.

 

This lasted for a few minutes until Kagome lifted her head up to meet his gaze finding herself lost in those golden eyes of his.

 

Those eyes left no room for escape as his lips made their way down before brushing softly and lovingly against her own pouted lips. Kagome sighed happily as they parted, her eyes dreamily half-closed.

 

“I love you” he whispered softly, so softly that Kagome barely heard it.

 

But she did and it caused her breath to hitch and she felt her heart beat faster. Even though he had said it many times before it never got old especially they way he said it so deeply and expressively.

 

“I love you too” Kagome answered, her voice just a whisper as well.

 

“You know” Sesshoumaru started as his eyes began to glaze over with desire “I do believe I promised this morning that we would finish what we had started last night” he finished, his voice changed by the lust that grew within him.

 

Kagome's eyes widened as she felt his arousal start to press against her. She was at the moment straddling him, and so her core was directly above him and she could feel it as it started to pulsate.

 

Sesshoumaru groaned while watching Kagome's expression, even though she was far from innocent it seemed she still held onto some of it nonetheless. Her innocence called to him like nothing ever had, it made her irresistable.

 

Her body, in tuned with his, immediately reacted and she felt herself grow wet, her core throbbing. Subconsciously she started to rock against him in order to lessen the intense feelings.

 

This only egged him on as he roughly grabbed her hips forcing her to sharply grind against his aching arousal while he thrusted upwards trying to increase the friction.

 

Both moaned as their desires increased and Kagome wrapped her hands into his hair pulling herself to him. She kissed him passionately all the while still rubbing against him, their sounds of pleasure increasing in volume.

 

“Oh...Sessh...!” Kagome whimpered as her need still wasn't being met.

 

“Let's take this upstairs” Sesshoumaru huskily suggested before picking her up with her legs wrapped around his waist, not wanting to be separated.

 

Kissing as they made their way up the stairs, Sesshoumaru felt an intense surge of arousal and shoved her up against the wall. He slashed his lips across hers, biting her bottom lip and forcing his tongue into her mouth hungrily trying to taste as much of her as he could.

 

Pulling apart at their lack of oxygen Kagome panted, “Sesshoumaru wait. I don't know if this is such a good idea, I mean Rin is in the house with us I don't want her to hear us...ya know.” Kagome finished shyly.

 

Setting Kagome down on the stairs as his arms were starting to get tired he smiled, “It is alright Kagome, she won't hear us. My bedroom is on the opposite side of the house from her room.”

 

“Yes but...” Kagome protested looking down at the floor so as not to be persuaded otherwise, although her body had other ideas.

 

Lifting her face up to meet his he stared into her eyes desperately, “Kagome I need you. Ever since I marked you I can't help but want you everytime I see you. It hurts” he finished pitifully his lips forming a pout he knew she couldn't resist.

 

“Oh fine!” Kagome consented, unable to say no to that sad face. Afterall she wanted it as much as he did.
