Weekend Lovers
II.
So they began their cookie-making escapade. Kagome figured she would do most of the work, since every time she told Inuyasha to get something, he would give her something else. The flour turned into salt, the vegetable oil turned into non-stick spray (which she would need later anyway), and the chocolate chips turned into egg rolls. She was happy when he did give her the two eggs she needed, and then everything else was conveniently in the box.
Kagome was busy stirring the batter in the large bowl quickly, trying to mix everything together the best she could. They still needed to add the flour, she noticed, and glanced over at the large flour bag. She saw that it was unopened and tilted the bowl a bit.
"Inuyasha, can you open the flour and—slowly—pour it in here as I’m mixing?" Kagome asked, watching as Inuyasha stepped up beside her and the flour.
"This?" he questioned and, after seeing her nod, decided to do his duty. He pulled his hand back and with one quick swipe of his claws…one could say that he opened the bag.
Needless to say, the white powder went everywhere, turning everything in their vision to a snowy, winter white. Kagome stopped her mixing and made a short scream of surprise when some exploded in her eyes. Finally, the flour slowly sank to a surface and disappeared from the air. Kagome was able to open her eyes again, her lips coming un-pursed in a small cough that sent a little more flour out.
She wised sed a very confused looking Inuyasha, who was staring at the bag with amazement. The flour turned his clothes white and his skin paler, but it didn’t affect his hair too much.
His orbs wondered from the exploded bag to her, and Kagome saw that he looked a little mad, "What happened!"
Closing her eyes again, Kagome simply put the bowl back on the counter. She wiped away some of the flour that was on her cheeks, her skin feeling softer than usual. Taking a quick look at the bowl, then around the kitchen, she finally replied, "The flour got everywhere except where it should go, that’s what happened."
Inuyasha dropped the empty bag to the floor and shook himself, much like how a dog would, sending more flour into the air. Kagome winced her right eye and took a step back from him, trying not to get more on her than what there already was.
When she looked again, he was basically all clear of the mess. Then she looked down at herself. Her green turned lighter and she could feel the flour on her eyelashes. She was sure her hair was pretty white, also.
"Inuyasha…" she started, looking around at the mess in the kitchen she knew was bound to appear there sometime.
"Nani?" he questioned, admiring how she looked with white hair. Of course, her black still shown through the puffy ingredient, but the mix fit her well, he thought.
Her eyes quickly shifted to his, a playful glint in them. She allowed herself a smirk as she gathered much of the flour that fell onto the counter into the palms of her hands. Turning towards him, she splashed all of it in his face, also blowing the rest that didn’t follow.
Inuyasha shot back in surprise, being blinded once again. His hands slammed into his eyes as he tried desperately to get the flour out of his eyes and keep more from getting in there, "Kagome!" He yelled whe bee began hearing her giggle.
"Hai?" She questioned as though she did nothing, picking up some more flour and dumping it in the bowl to be mixed. She grabbed the spoon and finished the step that took more time and work than it ever should have.
Taking the dish to put the batter in, she sprayed the non-stick spray around the bottom and the sides before tilting the bowl again to let it slowly drop and spread out into the pan, "Inuyasha, will you make sure the oven is hot enough?"
He glared at her, just then getting all the flour off himself again, "Keh! Why should I?"
She shrugged and began using the spoon to spread the cookie dough to the corners of the pan, "If you don’t, then we can’t finish making the cookies."
He paused for a moment and Kagome tried her hardest not to smile.
He’ll do it now.
Inuyasha took a few steps over to the oven and pulled the door down, much like how he had seen it done before. He felt some heat explode in his face, but his finger went in to touch the surface anyway. Out of quick reaction, he retaliated, making a sharp yelp of pain. The sound made Kagome jump and drop the spoon to the floor, her body turning around to see what happened.
She saw Inuyasha holding his left hand and blowing roughly on his pointer finger to try and cool it down. Her body became less tense when she saw that he simply burnt himself a little. It would most likely be a big deal if a human did what he just did, but his wound would most likely heal in a day.
Either way, she picked up the pan and slid it into the oven and closed the door. She looked at the clock to time twenty-five minutes and then turned back to see Inuyasha still blowing on his finger.
"Come here," she grabbed him by his burnt hand, but making sure not to touch his finger. She pulled him over to the sink and turned the water on a high cold before sticking his finger under the faucet.
Right away, she saw his shoulders slump, "Feel better?" Kagome smiled when he didn’t seem like he wanted to take his hand away from the cool water…or her hand. Actually, she herself felt kind of soothed. She was, after all, holding his hand under the faucet.
After about a minute, Inuyasha twitched his hand as it slowly got more feeling back into it after becoming accustomed to the freezing water. He felt her hand wrapped around his and…it made him stare. Every time they held hands, rather it was for one reason or another, he had this great fascination with staring. Her hands were so tiny compared to his, and all he had to do when give her one rough squeeze and his claws could pierce her skin. Of course, he would never do that to her, but it gave him that reassurance that she also knew he wouldn’t.
He realized that the water had been running for awhile now. Without trying not to think too much of it, he drew his hand away from hers and the sink, shaking it a little to dry it. Kagome turned off the faucet and walked over to where the rest of the batter lay inside the bowl.
"Do you want a little taste test?" she asked him, scooping some of the brown mix onto her finger before sticking it in her mouth, "Mm…it’s good."
Inuyasha walked over to her again and stared down at the leftovers. Kagome swiped another round on her finger and held it towards him. She then smiled and decided to have a little more fun with him and headed towards his nose. Kagome watched as his golden eyes became crossed when the chocolate landed on his nose.
She laughed and it made Inuyasha look back to her and narrow his eyes. With the back of his hand, he wiped it across his nose to make it disappear. Kagome did the routine once more and held her finger out again, "Okay, this time I won’t put it on your nose."
He gave her a weary look, but must have trusted her, for he leaned forward and took the tip of her finger into houthouth. Kagome’s eyes widened as her heart sunk into her stomach then bounced back up into her throat. She was not expecting him to just take it like that…she figured he would just scoop it off with his own hand.
Her heart must have leaped back into her chest for she felt it beating rapidly. She watched with slightly blurred vision the way his lips surrounded the tip of her finger and the way his eyes lit up when he realized how good it tasted. The way his tongue would brush against the pad of her finger every now and then made her stomach twist and knot. Kagome bit her bottom lip to keep from gasping or letting out a small moan, waiting patiently for Inuyasha to lick her finger clean.
After he tasted no more of the chocolate, he began pulling away but happened to catch the look that was plastered on Kagome’s face. It looked…mesmerized. He paused in his actions. Was she enjoying this? She blinked twice, then blushed deeply. She just realized what she must’ve looked like. Kagome pulled her hand back to herself quickly, clenching her shirt between her fingers to try to make herself calm down.
Okay, Kagome…just keep your cool. You and Inuyasha are having too many close moments in a short amount of time…
"Kagome…?" Inuyasha questioned softly, his eyes a bit curious.
Trying to avoid whatever question he may come up with, she reacted quickly by spinning around and walking towards the oven, "Let’s see how the cookies are coming along."
Inuyasha watched her closely as she made her way to the oven and pulled down the door. She peered inside and saw that the cookies rose a little, but still had sometime to go.
"A little bit longer," she stated, closing the oven door again. She turned back around, feeling a little more like herself again. She glanced around the room, not sure if she ed ted to make eye contact again just yet. Instead, she walked to the counter and leaned against it before straightening her arms and pulled herself up to sit on the side of the counter.
Inuyasha looked at her, her body a little higher than his now from the height of the counter. His eyes traveled down her flour-covered body, then further down to her long legs, followed by her bare feet. His bright eyes blinked a couple times before they averted to the bowl that still had a lot of batter to be eaten.
"I want some more."
Kagome’s head shot towards him, seeing him look down at the bowl. She reached up and patted the top of her head a few times to get some of the flour out of her strands, "Then eat some more."
His eyes flashed to her, picking up the bowl blindly. He carried it to her after taking his position right in front of her and held the bowl towards her.
She blinked and looked down at it. She shook her head, "Iie. I don’t want anymore."
P>InP>Inuyasha continued to stare at her, however, before reaching for her right hand and bringing her index finger out. He made her scoop some more batter onto her finger, holding her hand in front of him when there was a good amount. Kagome could do nothing but watch."It tastes better when it’s on you," It was a simple, kind of blunt, statement, but it worked as he once again stuck her finger into his mouth, allowing the chocolate to melt on his tongue before he licked the rest.
It couldn’t have been helped this time around when Kagome gasped. She figured it was simply a misunderstanding when he did it the first time, but now…he knew very well what he was doing. Inuyasha closed his eyes for a moment when her gasp felt like it punched him right in his gut.
There are certain things that happen in life that seem so surreal, they become surreal. Because of the circumstances of the moment, both Kagome and Inuyasha felt like they were merely going through some sort of dream state where it was impossible to call any actions.
Kagome felt his tongue once again swirl around her finger, every now and then smoothing over her fingernail. Because he made her get the batter from the bottom of the bowl, some of the paste smeared to the base of her finger. Inuyasha noticed this and, upon taking her cleanly licked finger out of his mouth, moved down to where her fingers connected with her palm.
She shivered visibly, not being able to help when her fingers coiled a bit to touch the side of his face with her tips. When she felt that he got almost all the chocolate off of her hand, she almost wanted to just grab him and make him touch her forever. He slowed down in his motions when he began to taste more of her skin than the chocolate, only giving her hand a few kisses or licks now.
"Inuyasha…" Kagome began, but blushed immediately when she realized she was the first to speak after some sort of heated moment. She wanted to say more…she tried so hard to say something more that wouldn’t sound out of place. Alas, nothing came to mind…only his name would be allowed past her lips.
She watched as he opened his eyes and stared at her hand for a moment, giving it a gentle squeeze within his grasp. Then his eyes slowly traveled up to meet hers. The look in his eyes made her gasp once more.
They were…sad. There was no other way to put it except for downright dispirited. He didn’t speak a word, meanwhile, she was trying to form words…words of any sort. Did she do something that caused him to change like this?
The powerful scent of the cookies captivated Inuyasha’s nose. He shook his head, snapping out of whatever he fell into. He pulled away from his best friend and looked a little embarrassed at first, but quickly covered it up by putting on a fake scowl. This time, the fake scowl was obvious, even to Kagome.
"The cookies are done," he put the bowl he had been holding loosely back on the counter and crossed his arms before leaning against the refrigerator.
Kagome watched as he did so, wondering what could have possibly changed his mood like that. Sure, a lot of times he would act like he got pissed off for no reason at all; that part was normal. What she didn’t get was the sudden passion followed by the depression that came over him.
She didn’t want to urge it out of him, however, for she knew what that would lead to. He would stop talking to her for a period of time and maybe just act like she wasn’t even there. She didn’t want to ruin what she thought was almost there.
Jumping off the counter, she turned off the oven and grabbed an oven mitt to take the pan out and let the cookies cool on top of the stove. She looked over her shoulder at Inuyasha, seeing him glare down at the floor. Taking off the mitt, she walked over to him and put her hand on his upper arm, rubbing it lightly through his haori.
Inuyasha’s eyes wandered over to her, but that was the only resposhe she got out of him. She took a step closer and rested her head on his shoulder, giving his arm a squeeze every few seconds.
While her eyes were down, he took this moment to look at her more closely. It always amazed him how much she cared for him, even after everything he’s put her through. Like right then, he realized, he was being hostile and she didn’t even do anything. He slowly uncrossed his arms, his opposite hand cautiously making its way to Kagome’s hair. Just as he was mere centimeters away, however, she stepped away from him and went back over to the cookies. Silently, she got a knife and began cutting down the centers and the sides and make perfect squares.
She took one end piece for herself and turned her back towards Inuyasha, "I’m going to take a bath now," she tried to let out a small laugh, "I think I need it. Enjoy the cookies." With that, she walked out of the kitchen and up the stairs.
Inuyasha blinked and twitched his ears twice. He quietly swore to himself under his breath and looked towards the cookies. He looked in the direction Kagome went. He looked back to the cookies. Then Kagome’s direction again. He pushed himself away from the refrigerator.
"I need to talk to her."
