Disclaimer: I do NOT own Yuyu Hakusho or Inuyasha. If I did, I'd have Hiei playing twister with me right now! **winks**

Calming down took a lot of effort. Kouga always ticked her off whenever he came near her, spoke to her from a distance even. He was that infuriating. She simply wanted to strangle him. After she had made something for the crew, she returned to Hiei's room. About an hour later, Kuronue popped up. "Youko told me to take ya to your new room."

 

"Why do I get a room?" She asked confusedly as she cocked her head to the side.

 

"Youko likes that you can calm Shippo, this way it'll be easier for you. You'll share a room with him."

 

"Oh, ok." Kagome gathered the two other outfits she managed to get, and grabbed one of Hiei's shirts. She tucked it into her other clothes, and she followed Kuronue to the room that was dubbed hers. When the bat demon pushed open the demon, Kagome walked in and looked around. "This is larger than the room I had on the ship to Kamikaze."

 

"Yes, but you'll be sharing this one."

 

"I shared the other one. Souta slept with me."

 

"Ah, he have nightmares?"

 

"Quite often. When mom died, he had nightmares that I had died with her, so he stayed with me every night."

 

"He seems like he was quite attached to you."

 

She smiled sadly at him. "I was practically all he had."

"Time to get up momma!" Shippo said as he poked the older girl's shoulder.

 

"Did you call me momma?"

 

"I'm sorry!" He apologized quickly. "I didn't mean... It just slipped out!"

 

"It's fine Shippo." Kagome said as she hugged the little boy to herself. "I'm happy you think of me as a mother, you can call me mom if you want to."

 

"Thank-you!" The little boy squealed as he latched onto her. "It's time to get up!"

 

"I'm up." She protested as she fell back onto the bed.

 

"Hiei-sama said you needed to go to his room."

 

"Well Hiei-sama can kiss my ass." Kagome groaned as she covered her head with the sheet.

 

"I wouldn't tell him that momma, he might take it as an offer."

 

Groaning again, she got up. "Fine." With a defeated sigh, she dressed and left the room. Shippo trailed after her. "Get to your duties, I'll help you after I'm done with Hiei."

 

"Ok momma." He hugged her and took off on deck.

 

Shaking her head, Kagome continued on her way to Hiei's room. Without knocking she simply walked in. Her eyes widened as she caught him with his shirt off. She could easily see his well defined chest and his chiseled abs. Trying not to stare, she looked to his face to find him smirking cockily. "You wanted me?"

 

"Actually, yes." He said in a husky voice that sent shivers down her spine. Walking over to her, Hiei put a hand on either side of her frame and leaned toward her with a smirk. "First I have a question."

 

"H-hai?" She was still trying not to stare at his upper body. It wasn't working very well, and she was starting to get slightly aroused. She was an adult woman after all. And she had been putting up with his blasted teasing for a while now. It'd been a month and a half since she'd gotten her 'own' room, and they had gotten quite closer in that time. In fact, she'd now admit to falling for him.

 

"See something you like?" Her eyes widened when she realized that he could smell her arousal. Before she could curse her own body, he kissed her. Reaching her hands up, she placed them on his chest. Hiei deepened the kiss and pulled her up against him, and she reached her hands up into his hair. It felt really soft, considering it stuck straight up in peaks.

 

Kagome could feel his hands rubbing up and down her back. For a moment, she wondered if he'd take it further, but he released her now swollen lips. He walked over, grabbed his shirt, pulled it on, and started to leave. Without thinking, she grabbed him and kissed him again. This time with more passion. When she broke the kiss, she was panting and she looked at his surprised face. "Why do you never do more than kiss me?"

 

"You are to young for anymore than that."

 

"I'm considered an adult though!"

 

He rolled his eyes at her. "You're still to young." And he walked out the door.

 

"But I'm not... I'm not to young." She argued to the empty room. Sighing to herself, she got up and went down to the kitchen. Making something quick, she gave it to the crew and went to help Shippo scrub the deck. On the way up, she bumped into Touya. "Hey."

 

"Hello Kag."

 

Grabbing his arm, she glared at him. "You know, I hate that name."

 

He smiled at her. "That's precisely why I use it."

 

Growling, she tackled him. "I hate you Ice Boy."

 

Laughing, he rolled on top of her and pinned her. "And you lose Kag."

 

"Now I really hate you."

 

"Touya, wha chu doin' to the lass?"

 

"I ain't doin' anythin'."

 

"Loo's like ya are."

 

"Just let me up Ice Boy." Kagome growled. Shaking his head, Touya stood and helped her up. "Thanks."

 

"Ya wanna come to the crow's nest lass?"

 

"Sure, after I help Shippo scrub the deck though."

 

"All right lass."

 

Shaking her head at the two, she headed up to the deck. Finding Shippo already started, she walked over to him to find out what he wanted her to do. "Where do I start?"

 

"The helm. We'll meet in the middle."

 

"Good idea." Kagome nodded as she gathered what she needed and headed for the helm. Climbing up, she saw that only Youko was up there. "Hello Youko."

 

Getting down on her hands and knees, she started scrubbing. "Why're you scrubbing the deck? Last time I checked you were the cook, not the cabin boy."

 

"I promised Shippo I'd help. Not like I'm needed anywhere else at the moment."

 

"Is Hiei still refusing to use you to warm his bed?"

 

"Hai, he says I'm to young." With a sigh, she continued her scrubbing.

 

"You sound sad that he won't use you." Turning red, she refused to look up and meet the kitsune's eyes. "You don't actually like him, do you?" When she refused to answer, he started laughing. "Oh my god, you do!"

 

"So what if I do!? What's wrong if I like him?"

 

"He's not exactly the lovable type." Youko said with a chuckle.

 

"Maybe he just doesn't wanna be around you." With a glare, she finished scrubbing the deck at the helm. "Where is he anyway? And Kuronue for that matter?"

 

"They're figuring out if we're near a fort to plunder, or if we should return to the island."

 

"Which one is your first mate anyway?"

 

"Both."

 

"Is that even allowed?"

 

"Hai." Taking his hands off the wheel, he pulled Kagome against him. "You know if you want fucked, I'll give you a great time."

 

Kagome laughed at his seductive purr. Neither noticed the fire demon was now there. "Sorry Youko, but I'm in love with someone else."

 

Youko's expression showed that he was stunned. "You love Hiei? I thought you just liked him."

 

"What can I say? He's just to irresistible." With a laugh she turned to leave, but she saw a stunned Hiei and blanched. "Wh-what did you hear?"

 

His face suddenly turned cold. "Nothing."

 

Nodding, she took off down the steps and started scrubbing down there. An hour later, she and Shippo finally finished scrubbing. "Thanks momma."

 

Some of the crew looked at them at that, but Kagome just smiled. "To the rest of your chores, I'm going up to the crows nest with Jin."

 

"Hai momma." With a smile, the little boy took off to finish his duties.

 

Smiling, Kagome moved to climb up to the lookout. "Where're you going?"

 

Turning, she saw Kuronue looking at her. "Up with Jin. He invited me."

 

"I wanted to talk to ya. Youko said that you proclaimed love for our evil little fire demon."

 

"He's not evil."

 

"Ah, so you admit you love him."

 

"Can we talk about this later?"

 

"How about we talk about it with Jin."

 

"Huh.. Ah!" Kuronue grabbed her, unfurled his wings, and flew up to the lookout. Once he set her down, she slapped his shoulder. All he could do was laugh, and Jin joined him. "Not funny! Warn me next time."

 

"What makes ya think there'll be a next time."

 

"I was telling you just in case there is."

 

"Right, well back to the you being in love with Hiei thing."

 

"The lass loves Hiei?"

 

"She admitted to it."

 

"So what?" Kagome asked with a sigh.

 

"Nothing, just you love someone who probably doesn't know what love is."

 

"Even if he didn't, which I think he does, why won't he go farther than kissing me? He claims I'm to young, but I'm not dammit!"

 

"How do you get your not to young?"

 

"My age never stopped that monster!" A hand immediately slapped over her mouth as she looked at the surprised expressions on her two friend's faces. "Gods... I didn't mean to say that." Without thinking, she took hold of the rope that was up there and jumped. Both men quickly looked over the edge, and watched as she descended toward the deck.

 

Hiei and Youko were talking about what they were going to do when they noticed her jump. Hiei's eyes widened, and shock clearly shown on Youko's features. The girl had just jumped from the crows nest, and was descending toward the deck at a rapid pace. Before anyone could do anything, she tightened her grip on the rope and pushed off the side of the mast, managing to land on her feet. She then raced off below deck.

 

Seconds later, Kuronue flew over to them with shock written on his features. Youko was curious and shocked about her actions. "It was a shock seeing her jump like that for us too, but why did she?"

 

"That's not why I'm shocked." Kuronue muttered.

 

"What happened?"

 

"Jin and I were askin about her liking Hiei, and she asked why he wouldn't take her..."

 

"And...?" Youko questioned, wanting to hear the rest.

 

"I agreed that she was quite young, and what she said... It shocked the hell outta Jin and me."

 

"What'd she say?"

 

"My age never stopped that monster..." He looked up into their startled faces as he said that. "She then flipped saying she didn't mean to say that, and jumped. I never before noticed that she didn't carry the scent of her innocence."
