~*~Chapter 18—The Way You Look Tonight~*~

The hanyou steps out of the well house and looks around him in surprise.

The whole ground of the shrine seem to be sparkling; lights and lanterns everywhere, especially at the Goshinboku, where a table covered in white cloth is set up under it. Two chairs reside beside it and candles lit atop it, completing the setting. He walks around in wonder as he looks for his mate.

‘Must be dinner. But why the fuss?’ Inuyasha thought, baffled.

“Inuyasha?”

He turns around at her call, and looking at her, had his blood rushing to his head and his heart beating overtime. Literally.

She’s stunning. There stood Kagome, wearing something blue that matches her eyes, with the spaghetti straps resting delicately on her shoulders. The long dress is not overly revealing; but when she moves like she does now, walking slowly towards him, the dress clings to all the right places. Her hair is piled high atop her head, some of the tendrils escaping its confinement and framing her face. A shawl is draped across her back and falling to her arms. She stops in front of him.

Looks like he’s not just the one surprised.

“Tonight’s the night of the new moon then,” she stated as she brushed her fingers to his black hair. He nods, still rendered speechless. Then he captures her hand in his and brings it to his lips to kiss it.

“You are beautiful,” he murmurs as he puts his arms around her. She leans onto him, her head finding its place under his chin as the music flowed all around them. She steps back, her hand grasping his to tug him towards the God-tree.

“So you like my surprise then?”

“Yeah. Now I know what’s with the shirt. Sorry, but I don’t know how to close them,” He points at the buttons.

“That’s okay. You look good that way,”

“Just this way?” Inuyasha teases Kagome as he sits down on the chair she indicated. She laughs a bit, saying:

“Fishing for compliments are we?”

Inuyasha just grins at her while she uncovers the dishes and reveals their dinner.

“Sorry, but that’s not ramen,” She apologizes to him, a definite sparkle in her eyes.

He retaliated by eyeing the food doubtfully and sniffing it.

“Are you sure this is safe enough to eat?” He asks his mate as he puts the plate down. She swats him with her shawl.

“Of course it is! I won’t poison you, you know,”

He lifts his eyebrows dramatically as though saying, “I highly doubt that,” and she ends up laughing again while continuously swatting him with her shawl.

“Ouch! Is that what it’s for?” Inuyasha points to the shawl.

“No, stop making me laugh and make yourself useful,” Kagome orders him with a smile before righting her shawl and handing him a bottle.

“What do I do with this?”

“You remove the cork on top. And don’t break the bottle,” she reminded him as he pulled at it.

In no time at all, the champagne is open. She pours them both some before raising her hand in a toast.

“To wonderful moments together,” she said, looking into his violet eyes.

He complies by raising his glass and she clinks it with hers.

“Kampai,” they both say before downing the contents of their glasses.

“This is not sake,”

“No, it’s not. It’s called champagne. Delicious, isn’t it?” she motioned for them to begin eating their dinner, telling each other about their day.

Halfthrothrough, a song begins. Kagome pushes her chair backward, stands up and walks over to him. She puts out her hand.

“Dance with me?”

Looking deep into her eyes, he nods and taking her hand in his, stands up and began to pull her close to him, one hand on her waist and the other hand holding hers in position. She gasps and looks at him in surprise.

“You know how to do this?”


~Someday when I’m awfully ‘lone
And the world is cold
I would feel aglow just thinking of you
And the way you look tonight~


He smiles at her, smirking now because he surprised her too. Inuyasha sweeps her into his arms, swaying in time to the music.

“Your mother taught me,” he confessed and she laughs softly.

“Let’s see if you learned a lot,”


~Oh but you’re lovely
With your eyes so warm
And your cheeks so soft
There is nothing for me
But to love you
Just the way you look tonight~


He twirls her around, making her giggle. He hasn’t stepped on her toes even once. So they danced in the moonlight, the stars shimmering across the skies to give them a romantic atmosphere.

“Why all the fuss to do this, Kagome?”

“Hmm? Well, since we can’t really go out on a date, I decided to improvise. I just want to have a romantic night with you, Inuyasha-kun. And I’ve been dying to teach you how to dance; only Mama beat me to it,” Kagome said with a smile.


~With each word, your tenderness grows
Tearing my fears apart
And that laugh that wrinkles your nose
Touches at my foolish heart~


He pulls her more tightly to him; their bodies flush against each other. His mind caught in the music and its words, thinking:

‘That’s exactly how she makes me feel,’

“Looks like Mama taught you well,” Kagome said smiling up at him.


~Lovely
Never ever change
Keep that breathless charm
Won’t you please arrange it?
‘Coz I, I love you
Just the way you look tonight~


He looks down at his woman; eyes closed, lips curved in a beautiful smile as she puts her head on his shoulder, their dancing now slowing to a gentle swaying. Impulsively, he frees one hand to release the pin holding her hair. Her luxurious raven locks tumble to her shoulders, and she leans back a bit to look at him questioningly.

“I like it better when it’s down,” he whispers while saying to his self,

‘I will never ever see such a lovely sight as this,’ and closing the distance between them, kissed her…


~Just the way you look tonight…~


As the final strains of the song remain, he bends her over his arms, not breaking their kiss. After a while, she leans back once again and tells him:

“Now this is romantic,” her eyes all dreamy.

And in that one moment, he just wanted to tell her again. Just once. That he loved her.

But as though reading his intent, Kagome put her fingers to his lips and shook her head. Instead she said in a soft voice,

“Make love to me, Inuyasha,”

So he picks her up, bridal style, pausing at the table to collect the bottle of wine. Then he walks inside the house and climbs the stairs, not even bothering to leap at it. He wanted this moment to last, for it’s memories to burn into their minds…

Finally, they reach her bedroom. He places her on her feet gently, allowing her to stand up. And touching her face with his fingers bends his head to her lips, brushing across it lightly at first before taking it captive under his own.

She sighed at his gentle teasing, her lips moving across his in urgency in her passion. He breaks the kiss, shaking his head at her.

“Not tonight, Kanai. Tonight… tonight is just for you,” he says, his voice full of promise.

Her confusion is evident in her gaze, but all that flew out of her mind as her mate’s lips came back to hers. He possessed her mouth, kissing her languidly as he pushes her gently to her bed. She falls back in a tangle of satin and skin.

Inuyasha looks at her, his desire darkening his violet eyes even more. And grasping the champagne bottle in his hand, he tilts it up to let her drink. She complies, but some of the liquid trickles down from the corner of her mouth, falling to her chin and her neck.

He follows the droplets with his eyes as though mesmerized by it. And without warning, crushes his mouth onto hers, tasting her unique flavor mixed with the wine. And he is intoxicated…

Releg heg her lips, he ran his tongue against it for good measure before following the drops of wine on her chin, down to her neck. He paused at his mark, laving it with his tongue before biting her gently. She moans and grasps fistful of his hair.

“You taste so good, Kanai,”

He slid the straps off of her shoulders, kissing the skin revealed. He tilts the bottle once again, allowing the wine to disappear at the valley between her breasts. Inuyasha slides the dress down her waist, bunching it up in her hips and revealing her lush, full breasts. The tips are already drawn into tight buds, awaiting the touch of his lips. And touch them he did, suckling her hard without the danger of his fangs wounding her. He laved one tips with his tongue before biting down gently and moving to the valley, lapping up the wine left there.

The sensation of the champagne pouring down her body followed by his lips and tongue increased Kagome’s passion, her hands locking his head to her breasts as she cried out from pleasure.

“Inuyashaaaa,”

He moves to her other breast, circling the nipple with his tongue and massaging it with one hand before pulling it deep into his mouth, his suckling growing more and more voracious; like a man starving and she was his feast…

Kagome puts her hand to his shirt, sliding it off his shoulders but not getting it off because of him. She growls in frustration and Inuyasha pauses in his task to chuckle softly.

“Patience, my love,” he said before shrugging himself free of the shirt. She gives a sound of approval, her hands clutching at him to tug him against her. He obeyed, rubbing his muscled chest to her breasts. She moans and moves below him, her breasts swaying with every movement.

She’s driving him crazy. He pushes himself off her breasts, now breathing raggedly. He fought to control his raging desire, determined to take it slowly. He buries his face at the valleyweenween her breasts to nuzzle at her, all the while vowing to his self that he’ll go slow or die trying.

He raises the bottle of champagne again, tipping it to dribble some at her, the droplets collecting at her navel. He pushes the dress down her hips, but to no avail. Not wanting to destroy the dress, he heaves back up to kiss her lips and whispers to her ears.

“How the hell do you remove this?”

She giggles, the tension breaking up slightly. And guiding his hand somewhere at her side, helped him to move the zipper down completely, the gown falling to a puddle at her feet. He grunts in approval, now holding her hips with his hands and nudging against her to part her thighs. She opens up, and he settles between her, unconsciously pressing his loins to her heat. She gasps at the contact, and moves her hips up to meet him.

He holds her hips firmly to the bed, gritting his teeth at the torture he’s putting himself through. And before she can move again, he went down on her, kissing and nipping at her smooth skin before dipping his tongue in her navel to sip at the fluid left there.

Kagome writhed beneath his ministrations, her hips surging upward despite of Inuyasha’s hands holding her down. She could not bear the torment any longer…

And still he didn’t stop. Inuyasha poured all of the contents of the bottle, starting at her breasts and allowing it to flow between her legs. He quickly slipped her panties off of her, lifting her hips slightly in the process, before flinging it e ane and turning his undivided attention on that moist, beating part of hers.

She began to undulate her hips, her head thrashing from side to side as she knew what’s coming next.

“Relax, sweetheart,” Inuyasha murmurs before licking his lips and spreading her thighs further for his quest. He knelt between her parted thighs down to the bed before hooking the back of her legs to his shoulders. Then he tasted the nectar hidden there…

She almost came off the bed at the sensations his tongue and magic fingers gave her. His fingers tested her wetness, his middle finger pushing inside her before inserting another one and pushing faster, deeper within her. He spread her moisture all over before allowing his tongue entrance.

She’s mindless to everything now but the pleasure he’s giving her, her nails scorching his shoulders before tangling in his black hair to hold him against her. Her hips coming up to meet his questing tongue, her whole body covered in sweat and wine. She thrashes her head from side to side, screaming incoherent pleas at him as she feels her orgasm building up.

Her muscles now contracts and vibrates against him, signaling her oncoming release. He stands up; whipping his pants off with the briefs she made him wore. He pulls her to the edge of the bed, wrapping her legs around his waist and getting to position.

Kagome opens her eyes to look at her mate, pleading and rapture within her gaze.

“Please, Inuyasha. Now!”

At her command, he pushed his hips against her, his hard erection driving inside in one smooth thrust. Kagome could not control herself anymore, and worked on his hardness to her release. She locked her legs tight at his waist, pulling him deeper into her. He groans as he feels her moisture surging up all around him, hot and wet.

“Faster,” she ordered him and he complied, his thrusts coming more and more frequent but shallow, as though teasing her.

“Oh God, Inuyassshaaa! Harder,”

He slows down, each thrust deeper than the last. Kagome cannot take it any longer, and growling pushed up into a sitting position, snaking her arms to his shoulders. He stood up, taking her with him, her legs still wrapped around his waist as she rubs against him. They moan together, and he sits down on the bed, letting her ride him to her release.

She writhed atop him, moving her hips faster and faster, trying to take all of him inside her at once. And then she came; that glorious hot surge of her orgasm blinding her.

She slumped against him, her body lax around him after her release. But he was far from finished…

Inuyasha is still hard, his throbbing member still inside her. And as he felt her body relax, he flips her to her stomach, raising her hips before plunging inside her. Kagome moans, feeling her inner muscles react and squeezing him once again. She leans on her forearms, lifting her hips and pushing against him, working together in a rhythm. He gripped her hips tightly in his hands as he slammed into her again and again, nearing to his climax. He’s in a frenzy now, his hips bucking wildly against her and as he feels that he’s near to completion, he leans over her and bites once again on his mark. Kagome screams, and she grips his hardness, milking him dry inside her.

Inuyasha is blown away by the force of his climax, his body slumping down on top of hers. After a few moments, he rolled over, taking her with him in order not to crush her. They were both breathing heavily, hearts still racing. Then Kagome raises her head to look at him.

“I love you, Inuyasha,” she seals her declaration with a kiss, not letting him say anything…
