Chapter 14Kagome shifted in her sleep, cold… she felt cold. Rolling over, she tumbled off Kouga and
onto the mattress beneath them. She woke up, disoriented, still cold.
“Mmmm?”, Kouga mumbled in his sleep and turned toward her, sliding his naked warm body against hers and pulling her close. With her toes, she grabbed at the rumpled blanket laying at the
bottom of the bed and pulled it up toward them.
“Kagome?” Kouga groaned, thinking her leaving. Stay… sleep… me”, he sighed.
“Not going anywhere Kouga, I’m just cold.”, she whispered.
“Mhmm”, he agreed and sighed happily when she pulled the blanket over the two of them.
“Good, sweetheart.”, he said and pressed his lips to her temple as he drifted off to sleep once
more. She followed him step for step, wrapped securely in his arms.
InuYasha woke with a groan and rubbed at his eyes. They felt full of sand, tired and he wanted
to sleep longer. He glanced over at his clock and realized it was after 11am. There was really
no need to get up any earlier, he had nothing scheduled for the day but sleeping in all day
wouldn’t get his laundry done, his term paper completed or his stomach filled.
“Shit.”, he mumbled as he sat up on the edge of the bed. He ran his fingers thru his messy hair and yawned hugely. Getting up, he grabbed fresh clothes from an ever dwindling supply and went into the bathroom to shower and shave.
Returning more fully awake than before his shower, he walked into the kitchen and spooned coffee into the machine, poured water and flipped it on. His mind never functioned very well until he’d had coffee, so any deep thoughts that might’ve tried to surface were quickly banished until he
could think clearly. He was only aware that he was hungry and that he felt some sense of failure.
Taking his coffee cup, he grabbed a poptart, one of Kagome’s passions- the kind with the
disgusting blue and purple frosting- and made his way to the table. He sat down, sipping on
coffee and biting into the cold pastry as he slowly came alive. Reaching for a magazine on the
table, he flipped thru it, realizing it was a Cosmo of Kagome’s… and started to read thru the
surveys and articles.
“WHO writes this crap?”, he mumbled around a mouthful of food and shook his head. Some article on getting and keeping your man? Dear God! Romance, sex and more sex! He shook his head, drained his coffee cup and got up for more.
“Been a month and a half since you got any InuYasha, what are you waiting on?”, he mumbled to himself as he stirred the coffee.
“Waiting on the SUN to shine, waiting on a friend of mine…”, he sang, opening the dishwasher to find it full of dirty dishes. He leaned down to grab the dishwashing soap and filled the cups,
closing it and turning it on.
He left the kitchen, intent of watching a bit of TV whilst it was peaceful and quiet and noticed
Kagome’s bedroom door ajar. He frowned, sat his coffee cup down and walked down the hallway. No
shower was running, no bathroom door was closed and he knew Kagome NEVER slept with the door
open. Had she maybe LEFT? He walked into her room, checking the closets for missing things. What? He had no idea but he felt like if she’d left, he would be able to spot the signs.
A thought occurred to him from out of nowhere and he stood stock still as he let it take shape
in his brain. Could she have bedded with Kouga? Was it possible she’d went straight to Kouga
once she’d come inside? Was it really any of his business? His stomach felt queasy, the thought
of his meager breakfast making him gag.
His eyes went to Kouga’s closed door and he swallowed. Hot anger, shame, pride, frustration,
everything and more boiled up in him. He wasn’t going to open the door, he wasn’t going to look
in… see HIS Kagome sleeping in Kouga’s bed. He wouldn’t lower himself that much but GOD how he
wanted to punish himself by looking, even if he felt as if it would rip him to shreds.
He walked back into the living room and sat down, his coffee now forgotten, the TV silent. His
mind elsewhere.
“Wake up, Kouga.”, Kagome whispered, her fingers pushing mussed hair away from his face.
“No… NO!”, he complained and pulled the blanket over his head.
“Ok, I’ll leave you alone, I’m going for a shower and I’ve got laundry to do. I’m just gonna
scoop up whatever is yours that I think is dirty and wash it along with mine.”, she said as she
slid away from him and sat up on the edge of the bed. Strong hands grabbed her about the waist
and she giggled as she was pulled back into bed with him.
“Don’t even THINK of leaving my bed, not yet…”, he said, his waking voice even deeper and more husky than usual. She shivered pleasantly and lay against him, looking into his eyes.
“Kouga, it’s after 11. I’ve got some laundry to do, I’ve got class this afternoon and I have to
do some fill-ins on those sketches I’ve worked up PLUS I have to let Mr. Jensen know that I’ve
got plans for my final grade. He’ll be relieved to know that. Should I say you’re responsible?”,
she smiled and kissed his nose.
“You can say what you damned well please as long as you promise to shag me every single fucking NIGHT like you did last night, baby. Damn!”, he groaned, pulling her atop him and situating her between his spread legs.
“Kouga, don’t…”, she said softly and lay her cheek against his smooth chest.
“Don’t? Don’t what? Ask you to fuck again?”, he asked as he held firmly to her bottom.
“Don’t TALK about it in the daytime!! Don’t just… argh!”, she laughed and he cupped her cheeks
and made her look into his eyes.
“It was good, Kagome. Better than good, it was damned near… FUCK… It was just brilliant! No two ways about it! I knew you had it in you!”, he smiled, watching as her face turned pinker and
pinker.
“Oh, Kouga, stop!”, she laughed and wiggled, trying to get off him.
“You keep moving on me like that and you KNOW we aren’t going anywhere, Kagome. What you’re doing is damn near making me wild!”, he growled playfully.
“Kouga, you are incorrigible!”, she laughed as he rolled with her and placed her on her back.
She wrapped her arms around his neck and smiled up into his eyes.
“I know and quite proud of it.”, he grinned.
“We have to plan on the main part of my project for next weekend. I was thinking, would you like to GO somewhere for the weekend?”, she asked.
“You don’t want to do it here?”, he asked, frowning.
“No, not here. I can’t work on it here.”, she said.
“Since when? Kagome, what’s wrong? Has this got anything at all to do with why you were so
upset last night?”, he asked.
She was silent, biting her lower lip, avoiding his eyes and his questions.
“Is it InuYasha, Kagome? Did you two have words again? After I left?”, he asked and stroked down her cheek with one finger.
“It’s complicated, Kouga. But a weekend away would be nice and I can put all my energies into
getting that sketch done. That would relieve me immensely! Just to get it done and out of the
way!”, she said.
She’d sidestepped his question but that gave him as much answer as he needed. It WAS InuYasha and he intended to have it out with him once and for all while she was gone with her laundry.
“Well, I’ve got to pick up my car in Sendai, have you been there before?”, he asked.
“To Sendai? Only once a very long time ago. But Kouga! I can’t sketch you THERE!”, she said.
“Why the hell not? I can get naked for you there just as well as anywhere!”, he said.
“I know that but not at your HOME!”, she argued.
“God, NO. I didn’t mean at my home! My mom would be raving and my dad would as well. No, I meant there’s a place just outside town, I know the perfect spot. Actually, it’s a very old lodging
but it’s… well, it’s special. You’ll see.”, he grinned.
“That sounds just perfect! So it would be OK with you then?”, she asked.
“It would be ok with me, Kagome!”, he affirmed.
“Great! Do I get to meet the parents of this excellent lover I’ve found for myself?”, she teased
and he faked a shocked look, hiding his face.
“Don’t TALK about fucking ME in the DAYTIME, Kagome. Please! I’m just too shy!”, he teased her.
She batted him about the head with her hands and squealed with laughter when he started to tickle her mercilessly.
“…so MEAN… so… Kouga! Stop… can’t breathe!”, she laughed as she wriggled out from underneath him and shoved herself off the bed.
“You look so sexy, Kagome. I’ve…” he started before she gasped and covered herself as best she could whilst diving for the cover of the blanket.
“Kagome? Did you NOT realize you were naked? You know, this would be the first time I’ve seen you that way and I’m wondering why you’re hiding it from me now when you’re so lovely… so nice…”, he soothed, his hand rubbing over her blanket covered bottom.
“Gimesomtime”, she muttered into the blanket. He took the blanket in his fingers, grasped it and pulled it from her face. She looked at him and smiled shyly.
“What did you say?”, he asked.
“I said Give Me Some Time!”, she smiled. “I don’t normally go around naked in front of strange
men!”, she laughed.
“But you want ME to!”, Kouga chuckled. “STRANGE MEN?”, he choked and she giggled.
“You said you would pose for me Kouga and you cannot back out on me now, it’s too late!”, she
said firmly, frowning.
“Ah, I was only JOKING wit you!”, he said and pressed his finger against the little line that
ran between her beautifully shaped brows.
“You BETTER be! Now I really gotta get going, Kouga. If you have anything else that needs to go into this mess of stuff to wash, throw it into a bag. I’ll pick it up on my way out the door.”,
she said and got up from the bed, dragging the blanket along with her.
“I still say lose the blanket, sweetheart. It does NOTHING for you!”, he winked.
She tossed her head and held tighter to the blanket, trailing it behind her as she left the room.
Kouga lay back, his hands behind his head and smiled. He had never thought she’d have come to him so completely and so soon. He had fully expected to wake up alone in his bed this morning but she HAD come and she had wanted him. His thoughts ran to InuYasha and he frowned. Sitting up in bed, he reached for his boxers and pulled them up, raking a hand thru his hair.
He noticed the pile of clothes on the floor; some of them his, some hers. Her shoes were still
there, her panties, her bra… her jeans and her blouse. He smiled, picking up the bra and pulling
it to his nose to sniff. It was so HER! The color, pale lemon yellow… her scent, complex with
swirling undertones, hard to detect just WHAT it was. He lay it on his bed and looked for a pair
of clean jeans. Not finding any, he grabbed a pair of denim shorts and slid into them. Once
Kagome was gone for the day, he’d speak to InuYasha.
Some things needed to be gotten out of the way and one of those things was InuYasha’s supposed claiming of Kagome as his own to watch over. He hated seeing her upset, hated feeling she was torn between the two of them. His own male ego that threatened to overshadow all of it told him that he wanted her for his own, no matter what the consequences but he had come to care deeply for her feelings as well, a small part of him had come to want her in his life… scary but true.
Was he ready to trust again? Was he ready to give somebody his heart? Was it too soon? Was it
now or never?
