Change The World

Her eyes, red and puffy from crying looked at up. "I know I may not be the strongest in our group, or the fastest. But I am a part of the team. And because I'm not properly trained or that good at shooting arrows, you have to work harder just to keep me out of trouble. You most of all. You're always having to carry me everywhere or leave whatever you're doing to come to my rescue." She looked away from him to Buyo on the floor. "I'm sorry for having broken the jewel in the first place. If I hadn't, none of us would be in this situation to begin with.."
 
"Heh, stupid wench." He mumbled to her, smirking down at her with that air of cockiness he was known for. "Say what you will, while breaking the jewel may not have been the best idea, it still managed to make a lot of other good things." he said, smiling down at her, cupping a cheek with his claw like she did. "All of our new friends, and everything, nothing to be sorry about. It brought good things as well you know." Yes, while her breaking the jewel WAS a stupid move, he was also happy she did.
 
She scowled at him when he called her wench but her facial expressions loosened as she thought about what he was saying. He was right. If she didn't end up breaking it like she did, they would of never found Shippo, Miroku or Sango. And she'd never mention it, but they would of never met Koga either. And though he irritated Inuyasha to hell and back, he was a good addition to the group and also hated Naraku just as much as her hanyou companion. A small smile etched on her lips. "You're right." She said softly and her head moved into his touch, her hand forming over his own.
 
"Damn right." he said with another chuckle. And though he didn't throw that in, it also was a good idea he didn't get his wish immediately. Who knows the kind of repercussions of him becoming a full fledged demon may have been? Even he knew it would not have been pretty, based on his limited time against Goshinki and especially against Gatenmaru, slaughtering all those people without even batting an eye. As her hand encompassed his, his other hand lazily wrapped around her waist, simply enjoying the closeness the two shared.
 
She chuckled back at his ego. That was another thing, his ego never faltered. He might be bold and pig-headed. And he may run straight into battle without thinking the matter over. But she still loved him nonetheless. Shaking her head a little, she laced her fingers through his and brought his hand down to her mouth where she tenderly kissed his knuckled. She honestly didn't know what her life would be like without him. She didn't want to think it, either. Inuyasha had become a big part of her life since day one when she found him pinned to the tree. They were inseparable, even when she had her moments when she wanted to go home, or when she first realized that she was in love him. She chose to stay with him, she made a promise to be with him, no matter what. And though she realized she'd never be Kikyo or take Kikyo's place in his life, she was happy to at least be there for him as a friend.
 
And yet that was the thing. Perhaps his feelings for Kagome did expand beyond that of being a friend. That's why he was so conflicted with Kikyo and her, his emotions kept getting in the damn way. Kikyo, well that was self explanatory. But at this point, she was far from living. Still dead. He did love her, but in an entirely different way than he felt for Kagome. Kikyo wanted him to become a human, to change who he was on the inside and outside. Kagome...well, she liked him for who he was, a half breed and she didn't want him to change, that was made abundantly clear. Kikyo was at this point a memory, an echo of the time before that he couldn't allow himself to forget. But Kagome...Kagome was here, alive, a person who cared about him honestly and genuinely, a person he didn't know was possible since his own mother. Watching her lay atop him, kissing his knuckles softly without a care in the world made his heart leap a little bit. he squeezed her hand a little bit more, delicate fingers crossed with his more calloused hands, before he pressed his forehead against hers, closing his eyes.

"I'm really glad I met you, Kagome." He mumbled to himself. He hated being cheesy and emotional, but with Kagome, he felt he could be. Besides, if she ever told Miroku and Sango he had a...whatever that thing was,a conscious, he thought it was? He'd make her pay.
 
Kagome leaned her head against his. She was glad she met him too. He had become her best friend. And he taught her a lot, even though he might not know it yet. Her heart skipped a beat at what he said. She knew there was a tender side to the handsome hanyou, but she hadn't realized that he'd be able to show it as much as he had in the last five minutes. She didn't mind. It seemed like the world only existed for them. Here, he didn't have to worry about demons attacking them or danger lurking behind every corner.

"And I am so glad I met you too, Inuyasha..." Her whisper was light and soft, her nose touching his and her breath on his lips. Just then there was a light knock on the door. "Kagome, dinner's done dear." Kagome opened her eyes and looked at Inuyasha's face. "Okay, mama."
 
"Mmmm." Inuyasha grunted in annoyance. Damn these distractions! Sure he liked this family, and they treated him well, but it's like they KNEW they were being all innocent and what not, and then decided at the right, PERFECT moments to ruin it. He reluctantly unwrapped his arm around her waist, but held onto her hand just a little while longer. That much he at least wanted, he also didn't move from his current position, forehead pressed to forehead, nose to nose.

"You gonna go?" he asked softly. He almost wished she would say no but if she wanted to....
 
Kagome smiled softly. "Nah." She loved being here with him, just like this. She wanted to remember it. As if this were the first and last time this was goin to happen. So, like her mom's ramen, she might as we enjoy it while it lasted. That and she had eaten not an hour ago and was still full from eating that.

"I'd rather stay here with you." She whispered back, the pad of her thumb softly running over his scarred knuckles.
 
He was elated she was going to stay with him, but the most she got was a little smile across his lips. "Heh...' he chuckled and nodded. "Good." She was so gentle in her movements, almost inhumanely. This was really happening. Just a week ago they were in Lady Kaede's hut, loudly arguing over whether or not she should head home for a test, or whatever the hell they were. Now they were in her bed, holding hands, and for lack of a better word, 'cuddling'. Not to mention the rather intense kiss early.

It was such a different sensation, just...laying here, not a care in the world and not being on edge all the time. Relaxing, very relaxing. he actually liked it. His arm wrapped around her waist again.
 
Giving a small nod, she leaned her forehead against his and then moved forward so she could gently rub the tip of her nose against his in what the called an 'Eskimo kiss'. It was exciting and foreign to her but exciting at the same time. She was afraid that if she pinched herself, she'd wake up in the Feudal era, making ramen for lunch and this would all be a dream. Pulling the pink comforter down she pushed him down so they were both layin in bed and she pulled the thick blanket over them.

Her brown eyes looked over his face. "Inuyasha, will you stay with me tonight? Just like this?" If he didn't, she understood. There were always things he had to do through the well. Protecting the village and beating up poor Shippo. So, if he had to leave, she understood and she couldn't stop him.
 
"yeah." he said almost immediately, nodding his head. "Yeah, just like this." He was surprised by the answer himself. BUt he knew the village would be in safe hands right now, and right now he wanted Kagome. She was quelling the voices, and taking his mind off them as well. So right here, for the whole night was probably perfect. "I'll stay." he nodded.
 
She smiled at him. It was a kind smile and she was ginuinely happy. Just like this. She laid down next to him. Her body shly and hesitantly moved closer to his and her head slowly moved to his chest. It was late in the evening. But they didn't have to sleep. They could talk or just lay there, enjoying one another's company. After awhile, she started to think. "Do you think you'd be still pinned to the tree if I wasn't dragged through the well?"
 
"Yeah, probably." he said softly, nodding his head and looking up at the ceiling. "I don't really think people would see a half demon pinned to a tree and think of taking him down." he said, shuddering a little bit. An eternity on the tree, in a state of total unconciousness. Truly a fate worse than death. At the thought, he shook his head. "You coming along was the luckiest thing that ever happened to me."

In more ways than one, it seems. He thought to himself.
 
Kagome scoffed. Atleast he noticed it now. Even if he did mistake her as Kikyo at first. "Yeah," she stated softly, snuggling into the bed and moving her head to look up at him. It must of been fate that they had met. Maybe it was supposed to happen. It was destiny. Her cheek muzzled into the fabric of his kimono. "I guess you're right." She lightly snickered.
 
"What do you think you would be doing right now?" He brought up suddenly, the thought of Kagome never coming to the Feudal Era suddenly springing to mind, a regular little "What if" moment. "What would you be doing right now if you never came down yourself? I'd still be in the tree of course..." He suddenly thought her life would be very...boring.
 
Kagome thought about it for a moment. "I don't know." She stated honestly. "I would be in school. Thinking about what I'd be doin with college. Maybe dating Hojo..." There was a light shrug. "It's weird, I've been in the Feudal Era with you so long, I've come to think that this is my life everyday. I've become used to it." She never thought about what her life would of been like had she never went down the well. Maybe she didn't want to. She liked being with him.
 
Ah, right, Hojo. He didn't like Hojo. Well, he didn't like HIS Era's Hojo, he wasn't sure if he'd met HER Hojo. Shaking the thought of Kagome dating someone else, he looked down to her, a small pang of guilt going through his chest. Very small mind you. "Do you regret it?" he asked her. Perhaps it was all the talking Sango and Miroku did, when they forgot he couldn't hear, talking about how the Feudal Era cut into her personal life.
 
Kagome moved up a bit and looked at him. Did she regret too down the well? She never really regret it in the first place. "No." She stated. "I don't regret it. My life was boring before. School, homework, home. Eat and sleep. Bathe." There was a brief pause. "You seemed to come in and stir my life up. But I just wish it would be easier to get my school work done as much as I put effort in to finding the jewel shards." She laid her head back down on his chest, her left hand came up and spread out on his chest.
 
"Yeah, well...this school work kind of doesn't hold a candle to the jewel shards." he mumbled, his eyes closed. Was her bed always this comfy? Speaking of comfy, one eye opened, peering down at her as she lay on his chest, her hand a little bit over his head. Rather than say anything, one arm wrapped around her again, just under her arm before he closed it again. His breathing slow and content, a small smile sketched on his face. This was nice. This was really nice.
 
After a few minutes of silence, she laid there thinking about multiple things. Some good, some bad. And just then, she heard his heart beat under her ear. It was strong and pounded under her ear. Her eyes slowly closed and her arm moved down to wrap around his waist. "Jnuyasha, if you're hungry you can go downstairs and eat something. I'm not trying to keep you here."
 
""m not hungry." he mumbled to her, in an almost comatose, barely conscious state. "Wanna stay here with you." And he did! To emphasis his want, he pulled her a little bit closer. Her arm wrapped loosely around his waist, feeling as close as he could right now, under the pink comforter, his own kimono and her...he felt smothered. That safe kind of feeling that nothing could hurt him here. He leaned down and, lazily, pressed his lips to the top of her head, innocently pecking her.
 
Even though there was nothing too threatening in her era, she still felt safe. No matter what kind of danger they were in, she always felt safe with Inuyasha around. When he somehow ended up pullin her closer, she tightened her arm around him a little more. A part of her was somewhat suprised that he was still here like this. Normally he didn't like to stay in one place too long. Her cheek muzzled into his chest, hearing his heartbeat. When his kissed her head, she opened her eyes and looked up at him. Pushing up the bed a bit, she moved her head up shyly and pressed her lips against his in a chaste kiss.
 
Her kiss was met with a kiss of his own, sighing in a relaxed state as his lips met with hers. So what did this mean, he wondered? Considering the most he explained about this was that he wanted her, he was a little curious as to what she thought. Yes, he was that thick sometimes, completely oblivious to the obvious. Dare he try to do more tonight? Would she be willing? Earlier she seemed to be more than willing. he'd have to see how the night played out, as his arm that was wrapped around her gently tickled the back of her neck with his claw.
 
The feeling of his lethal claws tickling the back of her neck made her moan and squeak a bit. It did tickle, but because it was a sensitive area, it felt so good. She pressed more against him, her kiss a little more bolder than when she first kissed him a moment ago. Her mouth opened and her teeth gently nibbled on his bottom lip. She didn't have fangs, but she could try nonetheless.
