Chapter 18: Giving In
The door to the dorm room was thrown open by a giggling girl. She held onto the doorknob as she tried to control her laughter. Her dog-eared companion stomped past her with a scowl on her strikingly beautiful face and unintelligible grumblings on her tongue.

"I don't understand what the fuck was so amusing!" Inuyasha exclaimed politely. When another burst of laughter came from the dark-haired girl, he sighed tiredly. "Will you ever stop that shit, Kagome?"

"I'm sorry," gasped Kagome as she clutched her middle. "But, it was so funny, Shaya! You should have seen your face!"

Inuyasha's scowl intensified if that was even possible. "My face was not funny," he grumbled. Those bastards on the subway definitely deserved the bruises he had given them for ogling his girl's leather-clad ass. Inuyasha had been on edge all night at the Seventh Heaven, and he wasn't about to stand by and let one more asshole check out his girlfriend-not anymore. So, he had done what he did best; he had beaten the shit out of the idiots that dared to look at his girl. Without his mask on, he had caught a glimpse of his enraged face on the vehicle's window after he had landed a swift kick on one of the boys' back. The hanyou had thought he had looked menacing despite his feminine features.

The miko disagreed.

Of course, she would. All she had seen was a crazy hanyou girl with madly rounded eyes and a contorted mouth, shouting obscenities at a bunch of surprised teenagers. She didn't know him as the desperately in love, insanely jealous boyfriend he fancied himself to be. That remembrance brought a pout to his lips, and Inuyasha huffed some more, causing Kagome to sober a little.

Once her giggles finally died, the miko closed the two feet gap between their bodies. Biting her lip, she slid her hand up his arm to his shoulder and murmured, "It wasn't only funny, though."

The amusement in her eyes turned to the smoldering look she had given him all night, sending shivers of excitement down his spine. But beneath it all, there was a determined glimmer in her gaze that unnerved the hanyou. What is she up to now?

Fighting against the growing desire in his chest, he regarded her with apprehension as she rose on her tiptoes. But, his girl rendered him defenseless with her whispered words. "I thought you looked hot."

The warmth of her sweet breath on his chin followed by the softness of her lips on his mouth slowly melted every last drop of irritation he felt, leaving him with the unquenchable passion that had built up in him all night. Before his brain fully acknowledged his actions, his arms were around her, pulling her closer, and his hands were roaming down her back. He devoured her mouth hungrily, taking in her essence with aggressive intrusions of his tongue and eliciting a whimper from the girl. His fingers burned from the feel of the skin-tight leather covering her firm ass and the warmth seeping from the thin cotton that barely concealed her back.

It wasn't long before kissing her was not enough; he needed to possess her everywhere. Somewhere in the back of his mind, Inuyasha knew that this shouldn't go anywhere, that he should stop before he exploded out of sheer frustration. But for the life of him, he couldn't recall why that was the case. When the miko's soft fingers found the base of his mane and started tugging him closer, he stopped trying to think and gave in to the temptation that was his Kagome.

Groaning deeply at the feel of her tongue dancing with his, the hanyou quickly nudged the closest rolled up futon with his foot and sent it open on the ground. His one hand glided down the back of the miko's thigh while the other lingered on her back. In a swift move, he picked her up, earning a squeal from the girl that was swallowed by his mouth. He grinned against her lips as he sank to his knees and slowly laid her on the futon before crawling up her willing form.

Her hands were on his shirt then, pulling it out of his hakama. Never breaking the kiss, he helped her by shredding it off of his body and throwing the pieces away.

Needing to breathe, he severed his lips from hers and looked down at her flushed face. With her hair fanned around her head, her lips swollen from his kisses and her chocolate orbs dilated with passion, she was the most beautiful thing he had ever laid his eyes upon.

With every breath he took, his nostrils flared, filling all his senses with the fragrance of her desire for him. She was insane with lust, and frankly, he wasn't far behind. This was what he had been craving all night. Now that he had her pinned beneath him, everything and everyone else could go to hell.

Starting with her lips, he kissed his way down the soft expanse of her neck to the tops of her breasts that were dangerously close to escaping the bounds of her skimpy shirt. His hand followed the path of his lips before settling on one of her perky mounds while he played with the edge of her shirt with his free hand and found the smooth planes of her ribs. With an excited gasp, the miko arched her back at his touch, pushing her covered chest firmly into his awaiting mouth. Her fingers left his hair in favor of his ears, and Inuyasha's eyes rolled back at the wave of pleasure she sent down his spine directly to his groin.

"Oh, Kami," she breathed out as the hanyou's fingers finally reached her firm nipple under the flimsy material. "That feels so good."

Inuyasha grunted his agreement to the valley between her breasts while he hooked one hand under her knee. "You..." gasped Kagome when his lips closed around the nipple his hand had freed of its confines with a tug on her halter top. "You feel so good..."

He would have responded in kind if he were able to make any noise other than moans of pleasure and soft growls of impatience. But as it was, the hanyou was tightly wound up below his waist and all he could concentrate on was his goal. He was so close to feeling the warmth of her center against him. The friction that he knew would overshadow anything heaven could offer was a moment away from ending months of torture. It was, for all intents and purposes, a matter of life and death, for he would surely die if he didn't feel it now.

With a growl, he raised her leg and took in a sharp breath in preparation of grinding his covered erection against her leather-clad warmth.

"Oh," moaned Kagome before whispering the word that froze him with one hand on her breast, the other still under her knee and his mouth on her nipple. "Shaya."

Inuyasha gasped, releasing her nipple in the process. Feeling as if slapped, he looked up at the miko's half-lidded eyes with shock in his own. Damn, damn, damn! That single name was a cold shower over his lust-filled haze. That was why he had to be careful with her. Fucking Shaya! Fucking spell! Fucking damn! He couldn't go and dry-hump his miko since he wasn't supposed to have a raging hard-on in his pants. And this time, Kagome was lucid enough to realize that it wasn't his cell phone.

Inuyasha had never been so frustrated in his life.

With a blush-inducing curse, he pushed up on his elbows, trying to extract his ready-to-explode body from her too willing one in case an accident happened and ruined his cover.

It was the most difficult thing he had ever done.

Unfortunately for the hanyou, the miko was having none of it. She latched onto her hold on his neck and raised her hips up to meet his in wanton need, forcing Inuyasha to cower back. "Ka-Kagome," he gritted out between clenched teeth when she did it again. He was fighting to do the impossible and denying himself the contact he so desperately needed, especially after hours of sexual frustration due to constant stimulation. Why did she have to make it harder than it already was?

As if she knew his struggle and was dead set on pushing him over the edge, Kagome added fuel to the already raging fire with her breathy plea. "Please."

"Dammit," cursed the hanyou before he pinned her hips down with his hands.

But, the miko was relentless and before he could tell her to stop, she rose on her elbows and started kissing his neck, trying to coax him into giving in. "Please."

Inuyasha whimpered under the assault of her lips. "I can't take it anymore. I-I won't be able to stop, Kagome."

"Who wants you to stop?" murmured the miko as her leg sneaked between his to push up to his crotch.

Despite the distraction she caused, Inuyasha was faster, and he managed to put a halt on her attempts before it was too late. He gently tugged at her hair to make her look at him and growled in warning, "Don't push me anymore, Kagome."

He quickly discovered that meeting her eyes was a grave mistake, though. The raw need he found in them told him that she was asking for more than he initially thought; she was asking for everything that he could give her.

Unfortunately, she didn't know just how much he had to offer.

"Please," she whispered then, and it was his undoing.

Groaning in misery, he slid down her body to rest his head on her abdomen. "I can't do this anymore," he whimpered against her skin.

Her fingers returned to his ears, caressing the soft fur in comfort. "Why?" she implored.

"I can't because..." Inuyasha lifted his head and looked at her with remorse. This was it. He had to do it sooner or later anyway. He decided then and there that he would take the brunt of her fury rather than let her torture him to death. Death by being sexually teased was a good way to go, some would say.

Inuyasha begged to differ.

With his mind set, he took in a deep breath and locked his gaze with hers to see the dreaded reaction before he blurted out, "I'm not who you think I am."

Something flickered in her eyes, but her face was impassive when she asked, "You're not?"

Judging by her expression, the hanyou decided that she didn't comprehend his words. How could she? It wasn't something one would say in the middle of a make-out session-especially one as passionate as they had. Besides, she had no way of guessing what he was talking about. He had to elaborate. Sighing in resignation, he lifted himself off of her and stood awkwardly in front of the futon. "I'm not Shaya."

The miko sat up in the bed and pulled her shirt down as she asked, "You're not Shaya?"

Inuyasha could swear that he saw her mouth twitch for a second, but he couldn't tell if she was going to cry or laugh. He decided it was probably the former. Shaking his head, he replied, "I'm not. Shaya doesn't exist, Kagome." He looked down at his hands, unable to meet her gaze, afraid to see sadness in there. "She never did," he grumbled as he ripped the bracelet off of his wrist and threw it to the wall with the force of his frustrations. Finally standing bare of his secrets in front of his love, he scowled at the offending object as he waited for her response.

Kagome gasped but didn't say anything to alleviate his fears or prove them right. Poor girl's shocked into silence. He could feel her eyes on him, scrutinizing his male form partially covered by miko robes. He was about jump out of his skin with apprehension. After a few agonizingly silent seconds, Inuyasha was not able to take anymore. He chanced a glance at her beneath his eyelashes to see her eyes fixed on his chest. He shifted uncomfortably, bringing her gaze to his face.

Kagome chewed on her lip thoughtfully before she opened her mouth. "Why?" she asked, and the detached tone of her voice made the hanyou flinch.

He looked away from the intensity of her gaze and glared at the hated set of beads on the floor. "It's that damn bracelet. It makes me look..."

His hurried explanation was cut off by the miko. "I get that, Inuyasha," she said impatiently. "I want to know why."

He glanced at her hesitantly, and the expression on her lovely features was enough to let him know that if he would ever get a chance to make things right, this was it. Taking a deep breath, he plunged right in. "We, I mean my friend Kouga and I, got into some trouble. It wasn't the first time, but it was the last straw for our parents. And this time, we messed with a mob boss and we were in deep shit. He wanted to kill us, and for all I know, he still does. My prick of a brother promised to help us, so we went to see him. The next thing I know, we were wearing these damn bracelets, which we weren't able to take off, and looking like two girls! And then we were forced to enroll in this school." When he was finished, he looked up to the miko, waiting for her response.

Her brows were furrowed, and she chewed on her lip for a while, making the hanyou squirm in anxiety. Finally, she let go of her abused lip and a small grin tugged at the corner of her mouth. "I must admit that really is a brilliant plan," she commented lightly.

Inuyasha's eyes widened in surprise. Was she fucking with him, or could it be possible that she wasn't as angry as he had feared that she would be? He tugged at his bangs nervously. "You're not mad?"

Kagome's demeanor instantly changed at his question. "Am I mad?" she shot back with a raised eyebrow. "Let's see..." she murmured as she tapped her bottom lip with her index finger. "You practically lied to me by letting me believe that you were a girl. You kissed me and made out with me but never let me know who I was letting touch me in ways that I never let anyone else touch me before. You let me believe that I was a lesbian! You bet I'm mad, Inuyasha!"

Inuyasha flinched back with every one of her accusations as her voice rose gradually. By the time she was done, he was two steps away from the door and seriously considering bolting out of the room. She finally sighed tiredly. "But, I'll decide how much once you answer one more question." She pinned him with her narrowed gaze, then. "What are you doing with me?"

The hanyou gulped nervously. "I-I didn't expect things to get this far, I swear. It's all because of Sesshoumaru!" he cried out desperately as he started to pace back and forth in the middle of the room, flailing his arms in agitation. "When he forced us to come here, I had no idea that you would be here as well. But, that bastard knew I was in love with you long before I did, and I wouldn't put it past him to want to torture me with the sight of you every day, knowing that I wouldn't be able to touch you. But then, you kissed me..."

His babbling died in his throat when Kagome launched herself at him and did just that. Her arms wrapped around his neck while she rose on her tiptoes and forced her lips on his mouth that was partially open in surprise. Her kiss was warm and demanding, and even though his mind couldn't comprehend what was happening, his body did and responded to her in kind. His arms embraced her of their own accord and pulled her closer, causing her barely covered bosom to push up against his naked chest. He shivered at the contact he had been craving for so long while his lips took advantage of the eager caresses of hers.

Too soon for his tastes, Kagome pulled back slightly and looked up at him from beneath her eyelashes. Her cheeks were the color of her swollen lips, and her chocolate orbs were alight with unrestrained excitement. "You really love me?" she whispered as her eyes searched his with hope.

Inuyasha was frozen in his spot in confusion until he realized what he'd blurted out during his explanation. He had unconsciously poured his heart out to her and he wasn't sure if that was the perfect way to confess his love to the girl of his dreams. But, her actions proved to him that he'd done something good for once. Reassured by her kisses, he gave her a lopsided grin before capturing her lips again. Once the unavoidable need for oxygen won over his need for her, he pulled back by a mere inch and whispered against her lips, "I do... so much."

The smile that broke on the miko's face was mesmerizing, and all the hanyou could do was smile back as he drunk in the sight of her happiness. That only lasted for a few short moments until Kagome stole his breath away with yet another kiss. This time it was hungrier, more demanding and almost possessive.

Inuyasha wasn't complaining.

After what felt like mere seconds, they pulled apart. But if the way they were gasping for air meant anything, it could have as well been hours. Raising his hand to her face, the hanyou caressed her abused lips with his thumb as he rested his forehead against hers. "If I knew you'd react like this, I would've told you long ago," he whispered breathlessly.

Kagome nodded her agreement "You should have," she mumbled before giving his finger a small peck. "Why didn't you?"

"I was afraid," replied the hanyou with a sigh. Then, his gaze turned hesitant and he started playing with a lock of her hair as he added, "And, when you said you were in love with Shaya..."

"I never said that," shot back the miko instantly, interrupting his explanation.

Inuyasha's hand froze with her hair wrapped around his finger, and his eyes flew back to hers. "You did," he insisted. "Remember when we were kidnapped and in the greenhouse?"

Smiling softly, Kagome shook her head. "I never said I loved Shaya." His confusion earned a giggle from her before she turned serious. "I was confused for a long time. For a long while, I really thought I had feelings for my female roommate, and it was terrifying! But in the greenhouse, it was you I was seeing, not Shaya."

Inuyasha was too puzzled to put two and two together. What does she mean by that? She doesn't love Shaya? Did she not say that she did? What does it mean that she was seeing me? What is she talking about, dammit?! Exasperated with the jumble of questions that was his mind, he voiced his confusion eloquently, "What?"

The miko cupped his cheeks in her palms and looked deeply into his golden eyes. "I've been able to see through your charm since the hot springs, Inuyasha."

Inuyasha's eyes resembled two big apricots as they widened in surprise. "You-you knew?!"

Kagome nodded with a giggle and let go of his face in favor of tracing the lines of his collarbone.

The hanyou's mouth opened and closed several times while he searched for words. "You knew all this time and..." He shook his head as a new thought occurred to him. "Wait. When you said you loved me..."

Before he could finish, the miko completed his thought. "I meant you, you baka."

"You love me?" asked Inuyasha with raised eyebrows. He found it hard to believe that she had meant his male self, not his female persona with whom she had been making out for weeks. Her head bobbed up and down in affirmation, but it still wasn't enough to erase his disbelief. "Not Shaya," he said to clarify, and she nodded again. Then, he added for good measure, "And, not anyone else." When Kagome grinned in reply, his lips slowly pulled up at the corners until he was grinning back at her. "Only me."

This time, the girl giggled in response. He was finally able to see that the emotions that had swallowed his heart for years were reflected in her eyes. It was at that moment that Inuyasha finally comprehended the meaning of her words. "You love me?" he asked, astonished by the mere possibility that his love was not unrequited.

Kagome pushed his long bangs to the side of his forehead and trailed her fingers down the side of his face before cupping his cheek affectionately. Her eyes told him everything he needed to know, but she still whispered, "Yes."

Inuyasha's heart swelled to the point that he couldn't breathe for a moment. The biggest smile that had ever graced his features broke on his face then, and he picked up his miko with his arms around her waist. "Fuck, you love me!" he shouted with glee as he twirled her around the room. He was awarded with the joyous sound of her laughter.

When he finally put her down, he looked at her in wonder. His eyes searched hers for any signs of doubt or mischief. He found none. This enchanting creature, his beautiful Kagome was in love with him. I must have died and gone to heaven. His gaze fell on her lips, then. The smile that still lingered there was hypnotizing, and before he realized he was leaning down, his lips were on hers once more. At first, his caresses were slow and soft, worshipping her the way she deserved. But soon, they became more aggressive as he found it hard to express the extent of his love with such simple touches. To his delight, she responded with equal fervor until he had to break the kiss to let her breathe.

Panting in excitement, he looked at her with adoration before he grinned mischievously. "You're sneakier than I thought you were," he mumbled. "You knew all this time, and I never noticed."

Too breathless to talk, Kagome simply shrugged.

Inuyasha's grin widened when a new thought occurred to him. "I think that makes up for all those times that I had to keep my identity a secret."

"Oh, really?" asked Kagome with a quirked brow.

The hanyou's steady gaze fell upon his miko. "Yep. So, that makes us even." He supported his case with a single nod.

A gentle smile played upon Kagome's lips as her eyes focused on his golden ones. She moved forward to chastely press her mouth against his. Her kisses started to trail down his neck when her boyfriend drew up her hands and placed them on his chest.

"Please, touch me...here," he implored as her fingers pressed down on the smooth, silky skin of his upper body for the first time.

He watched as the very hands he had always desired to touch the masculine parts of his body were now there. Finally, he could look down and see Kagome touching the lean, angular planes of his very male anatomy. As titillating as it had been to watch two girls make out, his own body being one of the women in question, he decided then and there that he never wanted to watch their feminine forms locked in lust ever again. He was a man and needed her to openly accept and love him as a man, all of him and all of his body.

It was almost alien to finally have her touch him in that way. He drew a sharp intake of breath as his chest heaved. His heart pounded and the muscular form under her touch trembled, but it wasn't from fear. It was from intense desire, a desire that had long been denied.

Then, the sudden spark, the electrical charge that sometimes marked their passionate time together suffused his skin. He groaned against the onslaught. "Fuck!"

The next time her lips found his, it was with hunger and desperation. It was pure longing laced with unmitigated need and the magnetic pull that always drove him to her.

He pulled the rest of Kagome's thin tube top off her body, his hands lingering over her warm, sweaty skin. He felt the softness of her belly and the curves of her ribs as his hands moved upward. With every touch and caress, it felt like he was handling a live wire. Somehow, her miko's energy was rippling around her body and brushing against his demonic one. It felt like a surge of electricity had sparked from her body to his, feeding back and forth in an endless loop.

Inuyasha's eager lips found her breasts, suckling on her softness. There was a saltiness to her taste, the sweat of her body a heady concentration of her scent. He lapped at her, desiring more. His tongue lathed her nipple that beaded under his ministrations and the soft, firm skin that curved around each breast.

Her chest heaved under him as her hands pulled at his scalp, bringing his lips up to meet hers. Kagome's wet nipples brushed against his chest as she kissed him fully and deeply.

He had been waiting for too long; he needed to be closer to her. With bent knees, Inuyasha crouched forward, moving her body down under him and back on the very futon where all of this had started.

Steady hands lifted his body centimeters away from hers as he continued their kiss. Then, with a shuddering moan he pressed his bare chest against her softer one. Warm, moist skin pressed against skin. The dull ache of two opposing energies arched between them. He felt as if he was in a freefall; his heart somehow lifted out of his chest-weightless. While his heart thudded at the sensation, his body was far too aware of the girl he both desired and loved underneath him.

She sighed against his lips, and he felt the quivering mounds of her breasts pressing against his firmness. His breaths were quick and his head felt fuzzy, like he was on the verge of hyperventilating.

Once again, her proximity made his hardness pool and pulse between his thighs. It felt heavy with the need for a release that had long been denied him. A release that up until a few minutes ago, he thought he could never have.

He shifted himself even closer, his hardness nestling at her core. Without thought and only with need he ground himself against the place he had always desired, hearing her groan in return. A spark pulsed each time his body pushed against hers. It was a sweet torture to commit the act, but without true contact between their sexes, it was maddening. It wasn't close enough...

He pulled back to shove his red hakama and underwear off his body. Inuyasha tried to not look at the silly pink bowtie that was on the front of his panties. It was a strange sight when his reddened erection sprang free of the girly material. Fucking thing. I'm never wearing those again!

He had been so frantic with his actions that he hadn't had the chance to truly look at Kagome. He briefly caught her doe brown eyes and paused to enjoy the sight of her.

Her nude chest rose and fell under him with shudders. He watched the rose-brown centers quiver on her bosom. It was a fascinating sight. His eyes moved to hers and caught a look he had never seen on her before. It was the look of a girl somewhere between overwhelming desire and shock. As if her entire being was starting to short circuit and she could only ride the wave, rather than control it. Beyond her wide orbs, he saw her hair splayed out in an ebony halo against the snow-white futon.

His fingers traced down her neck, past her shivering breasts until his hand was stopped by the liquid black that encased her legs. With the reverence of opening an anticipated present, Inuyasha stripped the leather garment slowly off of her legs.

There she was lying before him, with only a black thong to keep ‘Little Tessaiga' at bay.

His eyes traced her body from the junction of her thighs up to her face. It was her eyes that made his desires and his love conflict in agony. Part of him just wanted to simply rip off the offending garment and plunge into her waiting form. He had waited long enough, hadn't he? He told her he loved her, didn't he?

As he looked down, her eyes held the unmistakable glimmer of lust, but there was something more there--something that unmasked him and humbled him all at once. Her eyes gazed at him in adoration, with tender longing. The windows to her soul only held trust, reverence and the sweetest love that he had ever witnessed in someone's eyes.

The act the hanyou had been frantically engaged in changed in tone. Now, it was an act of worship, and her body was his temple. He swore to give her everything he had tonight. Every ounce of love, and everything he could do to please her.

He cupped her chin with his hand, making sure that her eyes of liquid coffee could gaze into his honeyed ones. Inuyasha wanted her to see his soul; he wanted to be laid bare before her. He concentrated on the girl before him and how much she meant to him. He hoped that his thoughts were reflected within his eyes.

"Inuyasha," she murmured as a soft smile graced her lips and her eyes shone oddly bright. She blinked, and two tiny droplets glided down to her temples. He knew then that she could see the depth of his adoration.

Those were not tears of sadness.

Tenderly, he moved to kiss her forehead, before his lips traced down her face, down her neck and across her collarbones, pausing to pay homage to her breasts, then down to her slim waist to where her heat and desire pooled.

He slid his body down between her legs and pulled the lacey black thong off of Kagome, kissing her long legs as it traveled off of her body. Inuyasha's hands parted her thighs, and his mouth hovered above her moist core. ‘Little Tessaiga' angrily protested that it was being ignored and decided to twitch in complaint.

He tried to deny himself while he gave into the only girl he had ever loved. He breathed in deeply over her center. She smelled like the salty ocean tinged with an essence that was pure Kagome. Inuyasha pressed her legs further apart, and she gasped as his mouth found her lower lips.

"Kami!" she cried as her fingers dug into the futon at her sides.

He clearly remembered doing this before, even if she only had a foggy memory thanks to the alcohol she had consumed. The hanyou smirked against her warm, wet flesh as he recalled the utter state of bonelessness he had reduced her to last time. This time, he was sure that she would never forget the entire experience.

His canine-like tongue dived within her recesses, eliciting a moan. Her juices started to flow more thickly as he continued to lap. Clawed fingers found her nub, rubbing as delicately as possible against the crux of her desire.

Her head shook from side to side, her moans increased in volume and her hands grasped the mattress below her as if it was her only link to reality.

She was almost there. Kagome only needed the final push to send her cascading over the edge. He hummed while capturing her bud within his mouth. His lips pursed together, nearly whistling against her heated flesh.

Within seconds her body arched as she screamed her release. If Inuyasha wasn't already a cocky bastard, he might have felt even more arrogant than he had before.

He swiped his arm against his wet chin as he looked down upon the beauty laid out before him.

Post-coital Kagome had a rosy blush that started at her flushed cheeks and moved down to her breasts. Her chest was still heaving and her eyes were somewhere else, somewhere far away.

While his beautiful miko was coming down from her blissful high, Inuyasha moved to enter her. He felt her wet heat pressed up against his eager head. Instinct drove him with an unbearable need to feel himself deeply inside of her. He willed his traitorous body to be still, while he waited for Kagome's unfocused eyes to fall back into reality. He listened to his heartbeat and noticed that there was only a half second delay between that beat and the angry pulse that ran down his shaft. Exhaling, he closed his eyes.

A gentle hand cupped his cheek as his eyes opened to gaze at the woman stretched out below him. Her eyes were full with love and want as she whispered against his lips. "Take me, Inuyasha."

He felt the slickness of her heat rubbing against his eager tip. The hanyou needed no more encouragement. "I love you," he whispered before his lips devoured hers and his hips thrust into her with one firm stroke.

His eyes rolled back at the sensation, and the girl under him trembled. She would have cried out, but his mouth prevented it. So fucking tight! So damned amazing! He nearly joined her in a cry of commingled pleasure and pain.

"Kagome, are you OK?" he asked with a desperate shout as her face scrunched together and her eyes pulled shut.

He was about to move out of her when she timidly beamed a shy smile at him. Her wide eyes blinked in astonishment as her fingers touched his cheeks in reverence. Between shuddered breaths she spoke, "It...it's OK. You're just so big..."

Kagome nearly regretted her words when the arrogant smirk that was wholly Inuyasha grinned down at her. She was quite sure that he would never let her forget her declaration. So she slapped him on the ass.

"What was that for wench?" he asked in shocked surprise. Fuck, that felt good...

"Cocky bastard," she murmured as she pressed her hips up against him.

He supposed he could argue but he didn't feel the need. Especially when he was intimately joined with the miko he had always wanted and thought he could never have.

Moonlit hair cascaded on either side of the couple, curtaining them in their own private world as he kissed her deeply. With a groan, he pushed in again and pulled back, setting up a rhythm that rubbed their heated flesh with just the right amount of tension.

There was still a raw energy that crackled between their two bodies. Their forms pushing and pulling like two magnets caught up in a power struggle.

Kagome's hands moved to squeeze the firm buttocks that were pistoning into her. It didn't matter where her hands were; as long as they were on him, it felt good. Then, a hand drifted up to one of his fuzzy ears, and he nearly lost it.

Soft, small fingers rubbed the outside of his ear in time with his thrusts. He had been making out with his miko for weeks as a girl. He had always wanted her to touch ‘Little Tessaiga.' But since that had never been an option, he had always settled for her hands on his dog-like ears instead. Unfortunately, now he reacted like Pavlov's dogs every time his ears were rubbed. He couldn't help it; now, ear rubs equated to dick rubs in his mind.

As much as he enjoyed the sweet torment, he was about to ask her to stop when her hands fell to her side. Then, her head rocked from side to side as if she was shaking her head ‘No.' She was too far-gone to even touch his body at this point.

Inuyasha grinned wickedly. He knew the signs of Kagome's body when she was close to her release. He had brought Kagome to orgasm before, but it had been when she had thought he was a woman. At least being his girlfriend's lesbian partner had enabled him to learn what made her ache in pleasure. He knew her sweet spot and he was more than willing to rub it.

Careful to not scrape her with his claws, he moved his hand between their bodies and found the area that never ceased to take her over the edge. His rough fingers ran small circles around her wet, puffy bud.

She gasped and arched her back before her body contracted wildly around his hardened shaft. Oh, fuck!

He wasn't expecting it. He had seen Kagome come before, her body thrashing and a brilliant blush effusing her body. But he had never felt her body grip him before with such intimacy. Her internal muscles convulsed around him, pulling him with her. He was entirely unprepared for the mad rush that overcame his body as he pulsed within her tight heat.

His body lost every sense of space and time. There was only the pushing of his body into hers that guided the abrupt departure of his senses. He was moving within the woman he loved, feeling the exquisite pleasure of their joining, but he was also far away on a high that seemed heaven sent.

He pushed in again, pulsing and he heard her screams. His own rough voice joined with hers, grunting in spasmodic pleasure as he spilled within her. Slowly, he came down from his high and his head nuzzled against her shoulder blade.

Damn! That was fucking incredible! He looked down at his miko with the joy of an almost overwhelming gratification. "Kagome?" he asked.

She gazed up at him with a shy smile that touched her eyes. Then her lips widened into a grin full of love and adoration.

"I love you, Inuyasha," she whispered while carefully touching his lips with her fingers. Her face held awe and reverence as if she had just witnessed a holy miracle.

The hanyou couldn't help it; a smile beamed upon his face as well. Inuyasha couldn't ever remember being this happy or content. "I love you, too, Kagome," he admitted before slowly kissing her again.

With a contented sigh, Inuyasha settled down next to his miko, spooning her from behind. However, there was something nagging him. Something in the back of his mind that was pestering him. It was something about a promise, something about making sure that Kagome was pure and a virgin. And there was some disturbing threat that followed it. However, he simply dismissed the bothersome idea. Kagome was warm and in his arms, where she should be. She was finally his and she knew and accepted him as a man. He quietly drifted into dreamless slumber, a soft smile tugging at his lips.

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

Takeshi paced outside of the Seventh Heaven under the watchful guise of the bouncer and a mini-skirt clad girl. He knew that they were wondering what he was up to, but he didn't want to explain. He didn't think he could tell them that his daughter was inside, stripping off her clothes. Just the thought of it wrenched his heart. He waited until he was sure that he heard the ending chorus of applause for the ‘Lady of the West' before he walked in.

The last time he had seen Rin as the ‘Lady of the West' she was barely covered with white feather boas. He had felt both deep sadness and disgust to know that his own daughter had fallen so far as to become a stripper. Now, the feeling of guilt welled up within him as well. She had been doing this for him. Rin had single-handedly tried to infiltrate Naraku's mob and was trying to gather evidence to take him down.

If only I had found her sooner, if only I could tell her I was already collecting evidence, if she only knew that I am alive...

The blame ripped through him. He couldn't leave his baby in harms way. He had been trying to keep her safe, and instead of being protected from Naraku and his goons, she had willingly thrown herself into their clutches. Just knowing that she was in danger hurt, knowing that she had willingly destroyed her own innocence in order to avenge him made the pain stab even deeper. No father should ever have to see their daughter defiled in such a way.

He had always been upset at the relationship that Sesshoumaru and Rin had had. He knew that they were far from innocent in their amorous relations and he was furious that the dog demon had yet to marry his daughter. But now that all seemed to pale in comparison to the fact that Rin was in danger, a danger he had an unknowing hand in causing.

He walked into the smoke-clad room and found the taiyoukai pacing in front of a door that said, ‘Employees Only.'

His emotions diverged when he saw Sesshoumaru. Part of him was glad that the dog demon was there and could probably keep Rin out of danger. The other part of him was incensed that Sesshoumaru had never bothered to get her out of the Seventh Heaven when he had had the chance.

Takeshi stormed up to the silver-haired demon, his face full of fury. "I told you weeks ago that Rin was here. Why in the hell didn't you get her out of this shithole back then?"

The demon stepped back and lazily quirked a brow. "Who are you?" he murmured as he sniffed the air and tried to match the man's scent. Cologne and smoke wrapped around the man, making it difficult to discern the stranger's fundamental smell. However, the taiyoukai's nose was sharp.

"Higurashi-san?" said Sesshoumaru in muted astonishment. The dog demon actually had the alacrity to step back. He had already felt the burden and blame for letting Rin continue to strip. Unfortunately, there was simply no reasoning with the girl. The Higurashis were a stubborn lot.

He paused as he looked at the man he used to know, the man whose funeral he had attended, the very man Rin was determined to avenge.

"You!" accused the dog demon. "You were the one who called me! You wanted to meet me here."

The police detective didn't seem to be backing down; his face was still seething. "Yes, of course it was me! When I finally found my daughter in this hellhole, stripping... I had to do something. I figured that you'd take care of things immediately. Why in the hell is she still here?"

Takeshi was as angry as he was confused. He knew that dog demons were possessive. He had assumed that Sesshoumaru would have simply stormed into the club and ripped Rin off the stage. Then he was hoping that the dog demon would have not only forbid her from working there again, but would trail her everywhere that she went. Apparently, Sesshoumaru was not the man he thought he was.

The taiyoukai's icy exterior glared down at the shorter man. Both men were incensed and neither seemed to be backing down.

Sesshoumaru started to move toward the detective. He didn't even notice a ghostly figure of a girl wafting on by him.

Kanna's aura and scent were always masked; no demon could ever discern her. She glided on past the arguing men and silently opened the door to the staff room.

Anger surged within Sesshoumaru. However, his glacial facial expression didn't change; it only intensified. His visage was cold and menacing. It was only the knowledge that the man in front of him was Rin's father that kept him from making an example of the human.

Frosty words escaped his mouth. "Who are you to judge me? You left your family broken with your death! I lost Rin because of you! She believed that Naraku killed you! It was because of you that she left me and took this damnable job."

Sesshoumaru's lip twitched in an angry grimace. His eyes narrowed as the middle-aged man before him stepped back as if punched in the stomach.

Takeshi's eyes fell to the floor in guilty dejection. The fire that had raged within him blew out like a candle.

"I...I never knew. I was only trying to protect my family. If Naraku knew that I was alive, he would have used them as bait." Haunted, brown eyes looked up at the dog demon. "Everything I did, I did it for my family. All I ever wanted to do was to protect them."

"Hn," responded Sesshoumaru. An impassive façade crept onto his features again as his rage cooled. "We will talk more later. It is not safe to continue this talk here." The demon's eyes roamed over to where the mob boss in question was sitting. He was surprised to find that one of the cadre sitting next to the dark hanyou was winking at him and licking his lips. Sesshoumaru did not respond and pointedly ignored the effeminate man wearing lipstick who was blowing kisses in his direction. "I will get Rin. She's taking too long. We can meet up at my office. I know it is secure."

Takeshi nodded and rocked on his heels in an agitated manner. He seemed to be trying to keep himself from glaring at the demon before him.

Ignoring the astonished stares of the patrons of the club and the women who were undressing, Sesshoumaru walked into the dressing room of the Seventh Heaven.

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

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

Indolent beams of white-yellow light streamed into the dorm room, past the gossamer curtains. The luminosity fell upon the nude couple that was tangled together under the blankets. Inuyasha was starting to rouse, and his eyes flickered to adjust to the brightness of the morning. The hanyou looked down to see Kagome's head lying on his chest. He breathed a sigh of relief as he noticed that it was his masculine abdomen that she was resting upon and not a pair of boobs.

Knowing that just hours before he would have been looking at his feminine form had him looking angrily at the bracelet that he had thrown across the floor last night. Then, a devious thought crossed his mind. What would Sesshoumaru look like as a girl? He chuckled to himself. Unfortunately, his movements, as small as they were, roused Kagome from her sleeping spot.

"Hummm," she murmured sleepily.

Inuyasha gently caressed the ebony strands that were splayed across his chest. "Morning," he whispered while he continued to stroke her hair absentmindedly. He felt mysteriously content and lethargic, even lazy.

The girl in his arms turned to face him with a small smile of her own gracing her features.

He paused to look at her flushed face, sleep tousled hair and nude form pressed against his own. For perhaps the first time, they were lying together as man and woman, yin and yang, two halves to a whole-and he reveled in it.

Kagome looked at him curiously as she noticed the content smile that lingered on his lips. Her fingers traced his mouth while a glimmer of a smile played upon hers as well.

"I remember...I remember the first time I ever saw you," she whispered with reverence as her hand lingered against his mouth before finding a long strand of silver hair to twirl between her fingers.

"Ummm...hummm," he replied. It was so wonderfully soothing to lay here with her in his arms, knowing that his secret had been revealed and that she had inexplicably known nearly the entire time that he was really a guy. Part of him was still a little upset that she had kept that piece of information from him, but he found that he couldn't stay angry for long. He had managed to make the girl doubt her own sexual identity and had at one point made the poor miko think she was in love with another girl. He supposed that he could be a little forgiving due to the circumstances.

"You had arrived at our home on the shrine grounds for the first time. Your mother was meeting my mother for a formal tea at our home. You were...you were..." Kagome added as her voice trailed away.

Her unfinished sentence drew him out of his reverie and into the present. "I was what?" Inuyasha demanded.

Kagome twisted in his arms to get out of his grasp and looked him square in the eye. "You were a breathtaking jerk!" she accused as her finger pointed squarely at his chest.

Inuyasha huffed in mock indignation. "What do you mean I was a jerk?" he asked as he gathered her hand in his and playfully popped one of her fingers into his mouth.

"You wouldn't even talk to me. You ignored me like I was...like I was beneath you," the girl muttered as she watched his eyes glint with mischievousness. "And I was so entranced. The moment I saw you I was simply lost. You were the most gorgeous thing that I had ever seen."

Inuyasha sucked on her finger and drew it deeper into his mouth before popping it back out. The girl next to him shivered, but she didn't appear to be cold. He pulled her body flush against his, and she noticed the telltale evidence of his desire pressing hard against her thigh. The hanyou seemed to be trying to find his words. "I wasn't talking to you, because I couldn't," Inuyasha muttered as he pulled her tight within his arms. "Every single fucking time I was around you, I started to stutter. I was so damned angry."

Kagome flinched, and Inuyasha stopped to squeeze her again. "I wasn't angry at you, wench. I was angry at myself."

Kagome looked at him with a quirked brow and a disbelieving smirk.

"OK, yeah. Maybe I was a little angry at you. I wanted to talk to you. Hell, I wanted to do more than that. But I couldn't even get a word out without sounding like a complete moron. And then, you'd just sashay around me in your cute little school skirt, showing off your long legs, and I was smelling your scent, which still makes my head spin, and I couldn't fucking even think or speak. I was so damned frustrated."

Kagome blinked in astonishment. "You mean you didn't talk to me because you were stuttering?"

Inuyasha looked away and crossed his arms over his bare chest. "Feh..."

"You liked me?" Kagome asked incredulously.

The hanyou looked down at her with blazingly golden eyes. "Like isn't a strong enough word, Ka-go-me."

The girl in his arms shook her head. "I thought you hated me!"

"Hate?" asked Inuyasha as he continued to glare at her. "Fuck, I wanted you so bad. I couldn't even comprehend what was happening. I needed you and I couldn't even get a word out around you. It seemed that everything was hopeless. I couldn't get close to you, and some other guy was bound to nab you sooner or later. I was on the fucking edge almost every single day."

The miko's eyes widened. "Inuyasha...Are you still on the edge?" she asked as her mocha eyes peered into his golden ones.

Inuyasha sighed as if in defeat and drew Kagome even closer to him, snuggling her into his chest. "Wench...I...I've been living on the fucking edge since I met you...I...fuck...I never knew what to do...I wanted you badly and I was so frustrated that I..."

Kagome looked up at him in confusion. "That you did what Inuyasha?"

The hanyou looked a little sheepish as he avoided her eyes and mumbled into his chest. "That I might have gotten into lots of fights...that I might have been kicked out of a few schools..."

The miko looked astonished. "You really were kicked out of some schools. When you said as Shaya that you had..."

Inuyasha stopped her line of thought. "I was drawn so fucking tight that I thought I was going to break. I was forcing myself to stay away from you, ‘cause I couldn't even talk around you...I couldn't even be a man around you. So I..." His eyes drew up from his chest to look squarely at Kagome's surprised eyes again. "So I caused a lot of problems...so many in fact that even my parents decided to punish me."

She tilted her head to the side as if in question. "And that was why you were stuck looking like a girl?"

The hanyou laughed, but his voice held no humor. One of his hands raked through his hair. "Yeah, as you know now, my asshole brother was the one who cursed me. But, he couldn't have done that if my parents didn't approve. The bastard told us that he would leave it on us for an entire year. "

Kagome's eyes widened in horror. "An entire year...stuck looking like a girl?"

"Yeah, the prick thought it would teach us a lesson." Inuyasha paused as a smug grin crossed his features. "What the bastard forgot was that the bracelets were powered by demonic youki. So, on the night of the new moon, when I turn human..."

"That was when I saw you as you really were for the first time. That's why it happened? The bracelet stopped working with your demonic aura gone and you were able to take it off?"

Inuyasha smirked back at Kagome and chuckled. "Kouga is still stuck looking like a girl, though. He can't get his damned bracelet off."

Kagome almost sniggered as she moved closer to Inuyasha. Her fingers traced a pattern on his bare chest, and her lips curved into a subtle grin. "Little did you know when this all began that you and Kouga would be the hottest girls that Shikon High has ever seen."

Inuyasha pursed his lips. He seemed to find no humor in the situation. "How in the fuck would you feel if you were made to look and sound like the opposite sex and then you were forced to live in the same room as the very person you had a fucking crush on?"

The girl in his arms seemed properly chastised as she looked away. "I'm sorry Inuyasha. If I were stuck looking like a boy and had to share a room with you, I would probably go crazy."

The hanyou holding her in his arms snorted. "That's not even half of it. The first fucking night I spent the night in your room, you had to..."

Kagome's face twisted in confusion as she tried to recall the very night. "What did I do?"

Inuyasha raised a black eyebrow as he stared at her. "What did you do? You fucking teased me mercilessly from the very get go!"

The miko stared up with guileless eyes. "I did?"

"Every damned night, you'd take off your clothes and ask me stuff, like if your butt was too big. Then you'd shake your ass at me and squeeze it. You were such a tease."

Kagome blushed. She seemed to find the futon comforter to be very interesting as she picked at it. "I didn't mean to..."

Inuyasha took her chin in his hand and stared down at her startled face. "Didn't mean to, wench? What in the fuck do you call what you did last night?"

The miko huffed and bit her lips. "Fine. Now, I honestly was not trying to tease you at the beginning. But when I found out that you were really a guy and that you were staying in my room, I was really angry."

"Hey wench, it wasn't my fault. My brother set this all up. I didn't know."

Kagome quirked a brow at her erstwhile boyfriend. "Maybe you didn't know, but why didn't you change rooms when you found out I would be your roommate? You could have roomed with Kouga."

The hanyou looked astonished. "I um...I was afraid that if we changed rooms that Kouga would be able to sneak even more peeks at you."

Inuyasha chanced a glance at the girl he hoped would be his mate and found her fuming. He waved his hands in supplication. "What do you expect, wench? That wolf is a fucking letch. I had to protect you and... And, I finally had the girl I always wanted. Even if I couldn't talk to her, she was with me all the time. It was like..." He took Kagome's chin in his again and forced her widened eyes to look at him. "It was like we were boyfriend and girlfriend. You held my hand; you spent time with me. How could I give that up?"

The miko's eyes watered as the hanyou guided her lips to press against his. "I love you, Kagome," he whispered before his mouth found hers.

The second time they joined, it was slow and gentle. He pressed into her with deep, languid strokes before the girl fell apart underneath him. As her warmth quivered around him, he released and followed her into divine oblivion.

His breath was labored and his eyes tried to focus when they were done. Each time, it seemed like his body had died, gone to heaven and then was mysteriously brought back to earth.

With satisfied longing, both Inuyasha and Kagome lied side by side in their dorm room, ignoring the outside world. Unfortunately, it always had a way of bursting in unannounced.

Inuyasha had been twirling a segment of raven hair in his fingers when he heard knocking on his dorm room door.

It only took a single sniff for the hanyou to ascertain who was on the other side.

"Oi! What the fuck do you want, Kori?" asked Inuyasha as he continued to stroke Kagome's hair.

"I need some help from Kagome. Open up, dammit!" yelled Kori as she continued to pound on the door.

Inuyasha cursed as he grudgingly pulled himself off of his futon and then helped Kagome get up. He kissed her briefly on the lips before whispering to her. "Get some clothes on. I don't want wolf-shit sneaking another peek at you." Kagome blushed as she moved her unsteady body toward her closet.

"I heard that!" bellowed Kori.

Kagome managed to throw on her school uniform, while Inuyasha made his way to his dresser and pulled out his one and only pair of masculine underwear. Then he tugged on his favorite, baggy red sweatpants. He decided to forgo any shirt this morning. He wanted to remind Kagome how very male he really was and if he could taunt Kouga with his true form, then all the better.

"Yeah, what do you need?" asked Inuyasha as he opened the door and looked at the equally miffed Kori who seemed poised to bang on the door again.

Kori's delicate nose sniffed the air before rolling her eyes. She walked in wearing jeans and a plain white t-shirt that did nothing to hide the fact that she wasn't wearing a bra. The wolf demoness slammed the door behind her and sat down on Inuyasha's chair.

She looked at the two of them pointedly before she huffed and crossed her arms over her chest. Inuyasha took the time to pull Kagome protectively against him, her back against his bare chest and his arms encircling her waist.

Kori pursed her lips in agitation. "Why in the fuck do you get to end up looking like a guy and you get your girl? But me...?" Kori threw her arms wide as her voice rose in a girlish pitch. "I'm stuck looking like a girl and the woman I want more than anything thinks I'm just a female..." Kori pulled out her hands to make air quotes. "Friend." She concluded her speech with a tone of disgust.

Kagome's face was filled with empathy as she stared at her obviously agitated dormmate. "What can we do to help you...uh...Kouga?"

Kouga's lips chanced a subtle smile at the mention of his true name. Then a frown graced the beautiful demoness' features as she twisted the pearlescent bracelet around her delicate wrist. The girl sitting in the chair waved his arm at Kagome, motioning to the jewelry that was steadfastly secured to his arm. "Please!" he pleaded. "Kagome. You have got to get this piece of shit off of me before I go crazy! It's fucking torture to have a man's instincts and not ever be able to act on them. Use your miko powers. We figured out that it is powered by demonic youki. Maybe you can counteract it somehow and get this off of me!" Blue eyes laced with long black lashes beseeched Kagome.

The miko walked toward her dormmate and held the wrist that bore the cursed item. The shimmery pearls of the bracelet glittered in the sunlight as she gazed at it. Then her eyes shifted in concentration as her powers gently washed over them.

Then the wolf demoness shivered. "What...what the fuck did you do, Kagome?" Kori's eyes narrowed, and her leg started to twitch with nervousness.

Kagome was a little surprised to see Kouga's reaction to her miko's energy. Inuyasha found the energy to be stimulating, but perhaps that was because he was both human and demon. His interaction with her aura was probably unique.

Kouga looked uneasy, like the very miko he had asked for help was bathing him in kryptonite.

The miko chanced a smile at Kouga. She noticed that he was very handsome for a demon. His dark coloring, cerulean blue eyes, and lean, muscular form would normally be extremely enticing. She could see why he missed having women react to him. But despite the fact that he was gorgeous, she only had eyes for a certain silver-haired, golden-eyed hanyou. "I was using my reiki energy to see past the concealment charm and to also see how much power is contained within this bracelet."

The wolf demon masked his unease once he knew why he had felt so jumpy. "And?" prompted Kouga, his tenor voice now sounded clear of girlish quirks-at least to Kagome.

The miko's eyes furrowed in puzzlement. "Remember that I am only a high school student and not a fully trained miko. But your bracelet is pulling off its energy directly from your body. I can see it literally siphoning off your youki energy, centering on your bracelet. I'm sorry..."

"Sorry? What do you mean sorry?"

"I'm sorry that the means to power the bracelet is coming directly from you. And the only way to stop the flow, is to stop your own demonic power..."

"Which would...what?" asked Kouga perplexed.

"Um...that would probably kill you Kouga," answered Kagome with a concerned frown.

"No!" The demon next to her shuddered in panic. "No, please. Try anything! I'm willing to risk you frying my own skin if you can only make me a man again."

"But Kouga..." the miko reasoned.

"Zap me, please Kagome. I would prefer to be human to being less than a man. Dammit, please!"

"You don't know what you are asking, Kouga," exclaimed Kagome in exasperation.

Inuyasha rolled his eyes and scratched his toned abdomen. He smirked at Kori who was glaring at him with barely disguised jealously. He sauntered up to his girlfriend, put his arms around her waist again and nibbled on her ear. She shivered deliciously against his body as he whispered to her. Of course, even his soft voice could be heard by his fellow demon. "Just give him a little miko zap, not enough to hurt him, just enough to warn him of what it feels like." Inuyasha grinned.

Kagome didn't look convinced and Kouga continued to plead with his eyes. She sighed and looked the wolf demon squarely in the eye. "This is going to hurt Kouga, and I'm only going to give you a small dose of how much I can dish out."

The demon in question pulled out his arm and motioned for her to place both of her hands on the bracelet. "Just focus your powers on this damned thing," Kouga huffed in agitation.

The miko bit her lip as she concentrated on the object, focusing a fraction of her powers upon the cursed item. The hair all over Kouga's body rose as if he had been exposed to continuous static electricity. Even the hair contained in his ponytail wavered in the air, seeming to defy gravity.

The man in question only gritted his teeth, as he tried to not scream in agony. His arm twitched in pain, his chest shook in spasms and his eyes started to roll back.

Kagome looked horrified as she ripped her hands away from Kouga. No friend of hers should ever face such torture.

The boy's chest heaved violently and cold sweat beaded over his form. He tried to catch his breath, while a look of utter defeat seeped into his features, making his bright blue eyes turn hazy with despair.

Just as Kagome was about to try to comfort her friend, a shuddering banging was heard at the door of their apartment.

"Who?" muttered Kagome in astonishment.

"That bastard! What the hell is he doing here?" called out Inuyasha as his eyes narrowed in anger.

Kouga merely lifted an eyebrow in surprise. He was still hurting from having only a small portion of Kagome's purification abilities poured over his skin. All he could do was to sit limply in his chair.

"I don't understand," murmured the miko as she looked questioningly at her boyfriend. Inuyasha huffed in agitation.

She didn't have too long to wonder. Within seconds she heard the front door sizzle and then crack. Then their dorm room door heaved open.

On the other side was Sesshoumaru. Kagome gaped in astonishment. The ever-cool dog demon looked almost maniacal as his honeyed eyes flickered with strains of red and the claws of his hands dripped green poison onto the floor. Her eyes trailed behind the austere demon to see a path of destruction. Their front door was rent into a mass of burnt wood and splinters and the tatami mats were speckled with sizzling black spots. Under his dripping fingernails, a widening pool of black continued to hiss.

"Where is she?" asked the dog demon. "Where is Rin?"

"What? My sister? What do you mean?" Kagome's gaze wavered back and forth between the two brothers. She paused, but Inuyasha could tell that panic was starting to lace her voice. "The last I saw her was at the club. Is she all right? What has happened to Rin?"

Sesshoumaru was about to speak when they heard the squawks of Mrs. Tsubaki from down the hallway. "Don't you dare go into a girl's dorm room! I don't care if you are on a first name basis with Kaede-sama. It's just not done."

For the first time the older demon seem to realize that his younger brother was free of the bracelet's gender-changing curse. "You better put your bracelet back on or hide in the closet," ordered his older brother.

"No fucking way!" yelled Inuyasha as he moved right in front of his brother. Blocking his way into the room.

"If you do not, Shaya will be kicked out of the dorms Inuyasha."

Inuyasha was too angry to even consider that Sesshoumaru might actually have a valid point. Tsubaki's screaming voice was seconds away. But the hanyou wasn't about to budge.

"There's no fucking way I'll ever look and sound like a..."

Inuyasha felt a piece of jewelry being slipped onto his wrist and he uttered the rest of his sentence. But this time he said it with a high-pitched girlish squeak. "...girl again!"

The hanyou's eyes widened to look at his wrist as the cursed bracelet that he had tried for weeks to remove was back on his arm. Even more horrifying were the large, naked breasts that were hanging off his chest. "No!" he screamed. Inuyasha turned to try to find out who had placed the offending piece of jewelry on his wrist. He was expecting to blame his bastard brother for the prank, but instead it was his own girlfriend.

Kagome's fingers held his hand, and she look up at him beseechingly. "I just don't want them to expel you from another school, Inuyasha."

The hanyou tried to tug the bracelet off of his wrist, but it wouldn't budge. "Fuck!" he yelled and was startled to hear his own feminine voice. Kagome could only look on with confusion, wondering why he was having such a hard time with a bracelet that he tore off his wrist just the night before.

Kori only grinned in amusement and started to guffaw.

It was about the same time that the resident dorm mother, Mrs. Tsubaki, managed to storm into the room. Her eyes widened as she saw Sesshoumaru next to the nearly naked Shaya. "Girl, get a top on!" she yelled. Abruptly, she turned to scream at the dog demon that only looked at her passively. "And you...you pervert. How dare you go around breaking into a girl's dorm to blatantly ogle the young women here?!"

The angered stare that met Tsubaki made her retreat against the nearest wall. Sesshoumaru was soon centimeters away from the woman, his eyes cold and his claws still dripping poison onto the straw floor. Hissing drops continued to ooze from his fingers and small whiffs of acidic smoke drifted into the air.

Kagome quickly moved to grab a large sweatshirt that she pulled over her boyfriend's suddenly feminine torso. Luckily, she had seen it enough to not even be fazed by his quick transformation. Inuyasha on the other hand wore a look of utter horror.

The dog demon didn't need to yell. His icy voice and reddened stare threatened violence. "Shaya is my sister. So don't even accuse me of ogling her. My fiancé is missing, and I need to question Kagome and Shaya as to her whereabouts. You are more than welcome to chaperone my questioning. But, you are not to interfere again!" He let his words hang in the air as the sizzling tatami mats continued to hiss.

Tsubaki gulped as she slid down onto the floor, her back pressed against the wooden wall.

The dog demon turned swiftly to face his brother's girlfriend. "Now Kagome, when did you last see Rin?"

"Um...." The miko seemed to have trouble forming her words, her dorm room was a wreck and the resident dorm mother was also listening. "When I saw you and Rin together at the...uh...club. You were kissing." Then her voice rose in both volume and panic. "I haven't seen her since. She was with you. How could this happen?"

The dog demon only clenched his nails into his palms, as more poison started to drip onto the floor.

The entire conversation seemed to be at a standstill until Kori's puzzled voice interrupted. "Wait a second. Last night at the club, I saw a girl that smelled like Kagome. She was, uh...really petit, brown hair and was wearing a silver bikini. Nice body..."

Sesshoumaru growled, but the wolf demon seemed unfazed.

"The only reason why I am remember her is that her van nearly ran us over."

Sesshoumaru repeated the word in question. "Van?"

Kori kicked back in her seat, clearly enjoying the situation now that Sesshoumaru was puzzled, and Inuyasha was a girl again.

"Yeah. That chick. The one who smelled like Kagome. She was knocked out like she was drunk. One of the bouncers from the club was pulling her out of the joint and put her in a van. The same van then nearly ran over Ayame and me. Asshole driver."

"Unconscious?" questioned the dog demon. "Where did they take her?"

Kori merely shrugged. "Hell, if I know. I didn't stay to watch where they were going."

Suddenly a reverberating chime sounded from the cell phone in Sesshoumaru's pocket. The dog demon looked nearly astonished as he read the caller ID. "Rin!" he barked as he answered the phone.

A harsh sounding masculine laugh echoed. "No, Rin is not available to talk right now. But you, your brother and that wolf demon who trashed my property need to meet with me at the Western-most Takeshima island tonight at 8PM. Otherwise, I am afraid that Rin might not see another sunrise." The line suddenly hissed dead.

Sesshoumaru furiously tried to call back, but was only sent into voicemail.

"Where is Takeshima?" asked Kagome.

Sesshoumaru responded with an uncharacteristic waver to his voice. "It's a disputed isle between Japan and South Korea. If we leave right now, we will barely get there in time."

With that, the dog demon walked imperiously out the fractured door before Kagome followed him. "You can't possibly leave to get my sister and not expect me to come along!"

"Oi! Wench!" cried out Shaya. "You're not going anywhere without me!" The dazed hanyou quickly shuffled to his closet to pull out his Tessaiga and his father's old firerat robe. "And where the hell do you think you're going without your bow?"

The flustered girl returned to the room to grab her gym bag that contained her miko robes, bow and quiver of arrows.

Kori simply sat passively surveying the activity in the room with detachment.

"Get up," ordered Sesshoumaru as he glared at the wolf demoness.

The girl simply looked at her bright pink fingernails. "No, I was thinking about getting my nails done," added the demoness mutinously.

"You will arrive in a body bag or by foot. It's your choice," threatened the dog demon.

Kagome quickly ran to intercept the rapidly accelerating argument. "I think..." Sesshoumaru's eyes narrowed, but Kagome stood firmly in front of him and tried to diffuse the situation. "I think all Kori is saying is that it was Kouga that Naraku requested, as well as Inuyasha. Correct? So why would these two girls even need to be there?"

Domineering eyes looked down at her fiercely before Sesshoumaru turned to walk out the door. When he reached the doorframe he paused as if carefully considering his next words. "The miko is correct. Inuyasha and Kouga will need to be there. Shaya and Kori, come with me for now. We will make sure that your brothers arrive with me at the island."

"Oh, fuck yes!" hooted Kori as she sashayed forward.

Shaya only quirked a brow at Kagome. The miko's small hand reached out for the hanyou's clawed one as they followed Sesshoumaru and Kori out of the building.

In their wake was the still mortified Tsubaki who sat with absolute stillness against the dorm room wall. Surrounding her were hissing pools of black poison still burning the tatami mat floors.

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

Reviews are almost as good as finally getting to read a real Inuyasha and Kagome lemon in ‘He's My Girl.'

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

Next Chapter: We are rapidly moving toward the final arc of this story. Buckle down; it's going to be a rough ride from here on out...

Authors' Notes:

#1: No, we're not exactly sure how many chapters are left, but we are nearing the end...

#2: Ai and Karaumea would like to thank everyone who voted for ‘He's My Girl' in the Inuyasha Fan Guild, where it won First Place for ‘Best Inuyasha/Kagome Romance.' However, neither of us can fully understand how we won against such awesome authors. Ai and Karaumea humbly bow to Quillwing717 and KnittingKnots. We still do not comprehend how this happened when we were running against such greatness. So readers, go check out their fan ficts as well, you won't be disappointed!

#3: SplendentGoddess once asked us how Kagome was going to react when she found out the truth about Inuyasha. Was Kagome going to run away screaming, swearing that she would never talk to Inuyasha again? We laughed and told her that this is a comedy, not a piece of angsty fiction. And having Kagome run away screaming simply is not funny. However, having Kagome tease Inuyasha mercilessly with sex, while he tries to fend her off because he thinks Kagome is a lesbian is (in our opinion) very funny! So why do we do what we do in this fict? Well, we do what we think is funny and what we think will get the most laughs. Now we are entering a big fighting segment of the story, that part won't be very funny and we apologize, but every story needs its adrenaline pumping fight scenes (as well as a few lovely lemons). This story will be no exception.

#4: If you were wondering why birth control was not mentioned in this chapter (since Ai is a stickler for such details), it was because Kagome had told Shaya back in chapter 7 that she was already on the pill and our two participants were both virgins.

#5: The soundtrack to this chapter's lemon was: Sting: ‘Inside,' Scorpions: ‘Tease Me, Please Me,' Cascada: ‘Everytime We Touch,' Goo Goo Dolls: ‘Let Love In,' ‘Iris' and ‘Naked.'

#6: OK, a quick word on having sex the first time. This lemon was not realistic, in that having two virgins going at it would rarely have the girl experiencing an orgasm. But since this is fiction, we just categorically decided that Inuyasha had instincts (and had previous encounters with Kagome as her lesbian girlfriend) that enabled him to perform much better than the average male. And though some women have experienced a hellish first time with blood and pain, most women we have talked to only found it to be a little tight the first time. Both the authors would recommend holding off until you are old enough to understand the consequences of a sexual experience and to not expect your first time to be anything like what you read about in fan fiction. The best sex seems to come with age, genuine love and experience. Oh and the most important aspect of sex is always love-never underestimate it.
