Scents, Dreams & Reality

Disclaimer: I only dream about owning Inuyasha and Sesshoumaru. Maybe Mrs. Takahashi will give them to me for my 22 birthday. Wouldn’t that just kick ass. ^_^. Then they would be mine and I don’t share well with others.

A:N/ This is a repost of a story I posted on Fanfiction.Net. I took it off because my later chapters are going to be just a tad bit more racy then this one. Also I revised it just a little bit, and hopefully corrected most of the spelling and grammar errors.

**** PLEASE DO NOT review to tell me of any spelling or grammar mistakes that I’ve made. I am not turning this in to my English teacher for a grade and don’t feel the need to be perfect. THIS IS FOR FUN ONLY. If you don’t like that then don’t read it. I do want to hear from you, I just don’t take criticism well and I was never a very attentive English student to begin with. Despite my love of reading, I flunked.

If you have an idea for later chapters, or just want to say hi, or you suck, then by all means, REVIEW!!!

^_^ Nhyemia

DREAMS & THE DAY AFTER


Inuyasha sighed as he rested high above in the large oak tree that shielded the camp from the stars and sky. Leaning against its main trunk, he stared moodily into the coals of the fire Miroku had kindled a few hours earlier. The quiet breathing of his friends whispered reassuringly into his sensitive hanyou ears as he listened for any kind of threat, Demon or human, that might try to sneak up on the sleeping group. More often then not, he was the one that would keep watch as he rarely sleeps some nights and didn’t see a reason for another to stand guard when he was already awake.

Groaning, Inuyasha sat up, lifting his arms high above his head to strech, the red Fire-rat robe bunching up around his shoulders as he yawned. He was so tired. ‘Why me?’ he thought more then a little annoyed. He hadn’t had good nights sleep in days. Maneuvering so he lay on his stomach, he crossed both his arms under his head and rested his chin on them as he peered down at the current object of his annoyance through narrowed eyes. He watched as she moved restlessly in her ’sleeping bag’, another of those things she brought from that weird world of hers. She was having another nightmare, something she had been doing a lot the last few nights, her brows were drawn together, her lips pursed and he could hear her moan every once in a while in her sleep. ‘Or maybe it’s not a nightmare, not with That Scent anyway.’ He thought, then whispered aloud, but softly so no one would hear “Stupid bitch. Damn.”

Always before he had managed to ignore it, to ignore her, but with each passing month it became more and more difficult for him to do that. Inuyasha’s eyes narrowed even more. Her unique scent would tease his senses every day, and he just knew with his luck that it would get steadily sharper as she slept tonight. The young man had the uncomfortable feeling that the next week would be unbearable; even more so then it had been before when she was in heat. 'At least she doesn’t know.’ He thought, ‘At least I’m the only one who knows how much I want to take you.’

With a moan, he shifted on his back, his arms and legs hanging over the edges of the tree branch. Settling down, he prepared himself for a long torturous night.

~~~Another Long Day~~~

“What’s wrong with Inuyasha, Kagome?” asked Shippo.

Kagome frowned as she glanced at the Kitsune that rested in her arms, and then glared at the Hanyou in question that traveled ahead of the group. He was going at his customary sedate walk with his arms resting inside his robes, and though his left ear was twitching to hear every sound going on around them, his right ear was focused toward their conversation.

“Tomorrow is a full moon, so it must be his time of the month.” Kagome nearly laughed aloud when Inuyasha’s head jerked around and his remarkable amber eyes focused on them with shock.

“But what’s the full moon got to do with anything, huh?” the little fox demon asked. He didn’t understand Kagome’s answer at all. Inuyasha was always a jerk, but for some reason beyond Shippo’s understanding, he had been more so the last few days.

Kagome shrugged, still looking at Inuyasha, who, still looking at them, wasn’t watching where he was going and tripped on a root. With a mighty huff the half dog yokai once again looked forward, but Kagome noticed his right ear was still on their conversation. Looking down at Shippo with an amused smile she said, “I don’t know why but every time a full moon comes around, Inuyasha gets tense.” She looked back up and was about to say something when Sango cut in.

“I think he may be responding to our monthly, Kagome. Yours starts at the same time as mine, does it not? After the full moon?” The Demon exterminator asked, and then replied when Kagome nodded, “He always gets really nasty to us the week before. Then spends the whole week after sleeping.”

Miroku started to chuckle when he heard what Sango was saying and yelled up around, but couldn’t see Inuyasha anywhere. “Where did he go?”

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

Had anyone seen the Hanyou at this particular time; they would have first heard the vast array of impressive curses that were spilling from his lips, and then would have belatedly taken notice the dark red flush that coated his checks showing his embarrassment. Swiftly and silently, ((almost anyways)) he leapt from tree to tree till finally jumping down to the forest floor.

Angrily, Inuyasha stomped through the forest, still keeping the group within hearing range. He had been shocked when Kagome had made her statement about the full moon, but it got worse when Sango had guessed the reason for his tense nervous behavior. He couldn’t believe they had actually taken notice to his moods AND KEEP TRACK. At least they cared; he’d be flattered if he weren’t so pissed off.

Inuyasha growled and flattened his ears against his silver hair. ‘Bitch, Bitch, Bitch!’ He mentally screamed, his mind fully focused on Kagome and the scent that saturated the air around her. It wasn't as if it was his fault or anything. He was a male demon after all. They acted on instinct a great deal of the time, and his senses tended to go haywire when Kagome went into heat the week before her blood. He just couldn’t understand why that wench affected him so much. Sango’s scent didn’t bother him, and she was a hell of a lot prettier then Her! Not even Kikyo had affected him like this.

Inuyasha sighed, confused as the anger abruptly drained out of him. His feelings were such a mess. He only knew he wanted to be with Kagome he wanted to be with Kagome, and he missed her every time she went through the well back to her world. He couldn’t eat, couldn’t sleep, and Damn, he couldn’t even relax unless she was where he could see her, protect her. The young man stopped and leaned against the tree, closing his eyes and for just a moment, he let himself imagine what it would be like to be with His Kagome.



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

The rest of the day was pretty uneventful after that, the group doing what they normally did all the days they traveled; they walked. Inuyasha joined them again after an hour or so and nothing was mentioned of the conversation had between Kagome and Shippo. The occasional slap could be heard as well as a scream of “PERVERT!!!” from Sango. But, Kagome knew very well her friend/sister enjoyed the caress (^_^) she received from the lecherous Houshi. Shippo altern fro from Kagome’s arms, to walking and then back again. And as for Kagome, she talked and listened to her CD player.


((A/N: ever wonder about all that stuff she has in her bag? Well what would you take with you? Well, I say she has batteries, and lots of ‘em.))

And as for Inuyasha, His Pain has only just started.

Later that day as the group started to cook for dinner, Kagome glanced at Inuyasha again as he settled himself Indian style, preparing to wait for his food. She couldn’t help but be a little concerned and confused.

‘Man, did we really embarrass him that much?!? We were only kidding. He doesn’t have to ignore us all day.’ She sighed and started to cook the Ramen ((chicken flavor)) that she got from her time. 'Why is he so tense? He must be worried about Naraku or Kikyo. That’s the only thing I can think of that would make him so quiet.’ Stirring the Ramen gently, she let her thoughts wander around her present situation, mainly Kikyo and Inuyasha, until an irritated voice shoved her out of her thoughts.

“Hey, wench. You’re gonna burn the Ramen. Give it here and let me finish it." Kagome just arched a dark brow, and silently handed Inuyasha her spoon. This was the first time she could remember him cooking, not counting the times when she had been sick; otherwise it was Miroku or Sango that did the cooking. Leaning back on her arms she relaxed and waited for him to feed her.


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

As everyone settled down for the night, Inuyasha walked over to the dual tailed cat demon and crouched down to speak with her.

“Kirara, could you keep watch tonight? I’m kinda tired.” He asked to the surprise of everyone. Turning toward the group he growled, “What!? Aren’t I allowed to sleep every once in a while? Don’t you think demons get a little tired? Keh! Leave me alone!” Stomping over to a spot near the fire, Inuyasha fell so he lie on his side facing the forest and closed his eyes, falling asleep almost immediately.

For just a moment, no one said anything. The only sounds heard were the quiet breathing of the group and the night sounds from the forest. Warily, Kagome crawled over to Inuyasha’s side and leaned over to peer into the boys face for a few seconds. Turning to look at the others with wide eyes, she said shocked “He’s asleep.” Looking back at the sleepianyoanyou, she gently brushed his dragon tails away from his face and thought to herself, ‘Just like that. Man he must be exhausted.’ Sighing, Kagome went back over to her bag and slipped inside, trying to fall asleep. The others did the same. It had been a long boring day.


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


~~~DREAM~~~


“Kagome, where are you? Kagome-eeee!!!”

Inuyasha’s frantic scream cut through the misty forest as he ran, pushing back the foliage that sprung up in his way. ‘I have to find her’he thought wildly. “Kagome, Kagome-ee.”

He slammed to a stop as he ran into a small clearing. Looking around, he whispered “Kagome, Where are you? I need you."


~~~END DREAM~~~<


Kagome woke up and for a moment she was totally confused.

‘What woke me up?’ she wonderedhersherself.

Hearing a sound, she sat up and looked to her right and saw the shadow of Inuyasha lying on his back still facing the forests edge. Shifting out of her bedding she slowly crawled over toward sleeping man when she saw him move restlessly and moan. Leaning over him she ran her hands over his cheek tenderly, enjoying the feel of his skin at her fingertips.

'Kagome girl, what are you doing? You're going to wake him up.'With that thought in mind she drew back nervously when he whimper incoherently in his sleep. She sat still watching him, hoping he wouldn't wake up and find her watching him. After a few moments with no movements from Inuyasha she again hesitantly caressed his smooth tanned skin, drawing a moan from his lips as he unconsciously nuzzled the palm of her hand. Gently Kagome brushed her fingers up the side of Inuyasha’s face to his temple, not wanting to let go of the opportunity, then slid her hand into his thick silky hair to lightly scratch behind his ears.

‘Inuyasha. What are you dreaming about? Is it her?’ She just lifted her fingers and had began to rub the soft, furry tips of her dog-boy’s ear when he groaned again, “Kagom And And this time it was a word she understood. Shocked, she whispered aloud “ME?!!?” She leaned over to stare in disbelief into the young mans face, as if his sleeping profile would answer all her unspoken questions.

~~DREAMING AGIAN~~~


“Inuyasha.” A voice whispered from behind. Jerking around, Inuyasha looked in that direction and saw the focus of his dream leaning against a tree. He whispered in relief at the sight of the familiar girl.

“Kagome.” Running to her side he wrapped her in his arms. “I thought I lost
you.” He whispered softly into her hair.

“Never, Inuyasha. I’ll always come back to you. Don’t you know that by now, Nakama?” The woman asked quietly to the man holding her.

Inuyasha lowered his head and pressed it against the spot where her neck and shoulder meet. Taking a deep breath, he inhaled the intoxicating scent that was ONLY Kagome, as he responded to her words. “I know. But, you always leave, maybe one day you might not want to come back. I always drag you into this mess. I know you miss your family and sometimes I think it might be better for you to just stay there in your own time.” He mumbled into her neck.

“Baka.” Kagome said. “Inuyasha. Look at me. What do you see?”

Inuyasha raised his head and stared into Kagome’s soft brown eyes. He searched her face before his reply, “You, Kagome.” He was rewarded when she smiled and slid her hand up his chest around his shoulders, only to wrap them around his neck.

“Kagome, I….”

“Shh, Inuyasha. Kiss me. Please.”

He stared at her and licked his lips nervously, longingly. “Kagome?”

“Please? Inuyasha.” she whispered softly.

She lifted her lips at the same time he lowered his. And he groaned as he lightly brushed her mouth with his lips. “Inuyasha.” Kagome whispered, then gasped when he tightened his arms around her, the movement pressing her body more fully against his. Moaning he angled his head, kissing her again and again until they were both gasping for breath. Taking advantage of her barely parted mouth, Inuyasha lightly flicked his tongue against her lips, tasting her, wanting her. Deepening their kiss, he slid his tongue inside the moist recesses of her mouth, not waiting for her consent.

The kiss changed with that simple act. What had started as a soft kiss between two who loved, now changed into a kiss between lovers. Growling softly, he thrust his tongue against her own, coaxing it to slid and play against his. He couldn’t make himself stop kissing her, long frantic kisses. Her taste, her scent, he felt like he was drowning in her.

Finally he drew away, only to have her hands drawing him back, clutching at his red robes. “Inuyasha, Love me please.” Her voiced words, spoken so seductively, caused him to rethink his actions. With a deep growl in his throat, Inuyasha pulled off his outer robes and inner kimono, clad in only his pants. Pulling Kagome against his chest, he shivered feeling the heat of her body through the soft cotton of her uniform. Placing the palms of his hands against the softness of her belly and wrapping his left arm around her waist while the palm of his right hand slid under her shirt to cradle her small round breast, anchoring her soft body firmly against him.

Feeling her head fall back to his chest, Inuyasha looked down into her face, wanting see what he was doing to her. Her eyes were clenched tightly closed with brows drawn together, and her teeth were biting her bottom lips. The sight of Kagome so aroused had Inuyasha mesmerized. Again he growled as one of her arms came up to wrap around his neck, the movement causing her back to arch and her breast to press more firmly in his hand. He let go of her and reached down to pull the shirt over her head leaving her completely exposed to his hungry gaze.

“Kagome.”

“Inuyasha. Please.”


~~~END DREAM~~~

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

Kagome gasped in shock as a sleeping Inuyasha reached up to yank her down on top of him; his arms roughly holding her on top of his chest, pinning her to his body. It was all she could do to hold herself up with her hands and keep her from falling on him. Wiggling as much as she could in his tight hold, she dragged her legs up to position herself on her hands and knees, ready to jerk out of his hold.

Darting glances to her other friends who slept peacefully; she gave a tug with her body trying unsuccessfully to move away. It didn't work and she hissed in surprise when he rolled over, pinning her under him.

“Inuyasha, knock it off! Let me up now. Hey, stop.!. Eeep!! What are you doing?” She struggled as one of his hands slid under her shirt and gasped as his lips found her neck. At the same moment as his teeth found her neck, biting, the palm of his hand pressed upward and his fingers spread, gently cupping her breast.

‘Oh my!’Kagome arched her neck and slid her fingers into Inuyasha’s hair, unconsciously pressing her bare breasts harder into his hands and bringing his head tighter against her neck. ‘This must be why momma always said to wear a bra.’ she thought dazed. She gasped again when his hands began to knead her brs, ps, pressing the flesh and sliding his thumb over the hardening nipple. She felt one of his legs shift to slid in position between hers and lifted her free foot to rub her heal up the back of his leg. In response to her movements, his mouth bit harder, earning a whimper of slight pain from Kagome, then soothed the sting by swirling his tongue over the bite.

’Oh god his hands, his mouth!’ She thought dazed, as his mouth slid down, making his way over her collarbone. He nipped gently, sucking on the skin, licking the pulse that throbbed in her neck. She had never thought something like this could feel so good. He lifted his head and Kagome looked up to see that his eyes were closed. It was very clear to her that he was still dreaming. Kagome clenched her eyes tightly shut and bit her bottom lip in embarrassed desire ‘Inuyasha.’ Her eyes snapped opened when she felt cold air blow over her chest as he pulled her shirt up. Her eyes caught a glint of gold reflecting the soft light of coals from the dying fire and she gasped. His eyes were opened into small slits, watching her as he exposed her breasts to his, albeit dreaming, gaze. ‘Inuyasha, I’m gonna sit you till you die once I get out from under you.’ She watched as he licked his lips and whispered, “Kagome.”

“Inuyasha. Please.” she whispered embarrassed, then moaned as he kissed her. ‘Oh god. He’s kissing me!’ His kiss was everything she had ever dreamed of. His mouth was hot, hard and as she gasped a breath, his tongue slid inside her mouth taking quick possession. He kissed her like he couldn’t get enough of her taste and Kagome could only wrap her arms around his neck and kiss him back. She wanted this and like a true demon, he was devouring her.

His hands closed over her breast again and she willingly arched her back up as they kissed. “No, Inuyasha.” she moaned as his mouth left hers to slid again to her neck, then pant as his mouth found the curve of her breast. His mouth gently bit and licked its way over her small round breasts, moving lower until his mouth replaced his thumb. She wrapped her fingers tightly in his soft, silvery hair and pulled him closer. He growled low in his throat as he suckled strongly, his left hand cupping the breast he had to keep in his mouth and his right sliding around her back to cup her derrière to bring her more against his body.

Kagome hardly registered the fact that Inuyasha had firmly placed both his legs between her own, only noticing that his hand soon left her backside to slide down her leg lifting and bringing it around his hips. She shuddered when he began to rock his pelvis against her own, whimpering in her throat. Even through her pajama’s and Inuyasha’s pants she could feel him hot and hard against her. It was something she had never before experienced, and she didn’t want it to stop.

Inuyasha shifted to his knees and placing both hands on her butt, lifted her hard against him. Kagome moaned again, and dropped her head to the ground. All she could do was hold on as his mouth suckled almost to hard, as his hips grinded into her own. ‘Oh.’ Kagome panted as she arched into him, wanting more, needing more. Franticly she rocked her core to his, clutching hiad tad to her chest, while trembling wildly, so full of sensation, of desire, that she felt ready to die, explode.

“Inuyasha-aa!!” Kagome cried out softly right next to his cute doggy-ears, causing him to jerk back. Kagome felt his body go still and closed her eyes tightly. She refused to open them even when she felt Inuyasha pull his face from her chest. Swallowing huge gulps of air she concentrated on not pulling him back as he slowly pulled her shirt down and untangled their arms and legs. He sat up and she knew he was staring.

“Damn!.. Kagome. I..?” Inuyasha sounded dazed a he spoke. Looking down at the girl underneath him, he couldn't get the images of her naked body out of his mind. Remembering his dream, he cringed. Her eyes were clentched tight and she wouldn't even look at him. ' She can't even look at me. What the hell just happened?!? Did I..??, or Did we...??? Gods, her scent is amazing. I have to get away from her!' Panicking, Inuyasha sprange up and quickly made for the cover of the forest.

Kagome wrapped her body in a tight ball, trying to keep herself from chasing after him and finishing what they started. She had never in her life felt so incredible frustrated. Her body felt like it was on fire and it throbbing in her most sensitive areas. Taking a few moments to catch her breath, she slowly got up and crawled to her sleeping bag. Then she began to cry.

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


The next morning everyone was up and ready to go. They had been waiting for an hour when Inuyasha finally showed back up.

“Inuyasha, where have you been? We’ve been worried.” asked Sango. When he didn’t answer her, she turned to Miroku and they both shrugged and watched as Inuyasha scooped up Kagome’s pack and proceeded to leave without waiting for them.

“Inuyasha?” Kagome called to out to him.

“Yes?” he turned back and for a minute they simply stared at each other. When Kagome gave him an evil smile, Inuyasha sighed and threw the pack a few feet away and stood waiting. It didn’t take long.

“SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT,SIT.”


“Kagome?”


“Yes, Sango?”


“Care to tell us why you did that?”


“Nope.”


“Okay.”
