When the Big Dogs away the puppies will play,' thought Kagome smilingly when Koga had given her an invitation to a beach party at his fathers house.

The invitation said 'BYOB.'

Everyone seemed to interpret that a different way.

Kikyou, walking on Kagome's right, was dressed in a tiny bikini that barely covered her. She took the invitation as, Bring Your Own Boobs. And no amount of reasoning on the part of Kagome convinced her otherwise.

"What more could boys want?" Kikyou had reasoned, primping and shifting her cleavage to best advantage.

On Kagome's left was Sango, sporting her wet suit and carrying her surf board. Her take on the invitation was, Bring Your Own Board.

"What's a beach party without surfing?" said Sango, all enthusiasm to hit the waves.

Kagome, bottle of tequila in hand, took the invite to mean Bring Your Own Booze. But considering how the three of them each took those acronyms to mean something entirely different, she was wondering if she would be drinking alone tonight.

The girls arrived at Koga's beach house at the same time as Hiten and Jakotsu, hand in hand and both sporting identical yellow shirt and capri pant ensembles.

"Perhaps Hiten thought 'B.Y.O.B.' meant Bring Your Own Bitch" the patronizing and disdainful comment was delivered by non other than Bankotsu, who was walking up directly behind the girls.

Kikyou and Sango both huddled around Kagome sniggering. It was just last week at Hiten's club 'Thunderlicious' that Jakotsu had broken up with his long time partner, Bankotsu in an outrageous display of drunken Bitch-slappery ever before witnessed.

As with most breakups, people choose sides, and most chose Bankotsu's.

"This party is looking better and better," said Sango.

The girls made their way into the house where Koga was greeting his guests and was in exceptionally high spirits. Everyone in fact did seem interpret his 'B.Y.O.B.' in different ways and he found it incredibly amusing.

"Nothing ever seems to get you down does it Koga?" laughed Sango.

"Why should it? I'm surrounded by beautiful women and smoking the best bud!"

"Where did you get that?" asked Kagome.

"Toutousai."

"Toutousai?" ask all three girls in unison.

"Let me guess, Bring Your Own Bud?" said Kikyou

"Ya,' laughed Koga. "Crazy old coot says he grows it for his glaucoma. I wonder if that's his cat or something?"

The girls exchanged looks, unsure how to respond and thankful when the arrival of additional guests distracted him.

Making their way outside they found the company they were looking to keep for the evening.

"Hey Sango!" bellowed Inuyasha Let's go, we gotta shoot the curl girl!

Sango ran off with Inuyasha while Kikyou occupied the place next to Miroku that Inuyasha just vacated, next to a growing pile of wood. Kagome found a vacant seat opposite just in time to see Sesshoumaru carrying an armful of wood.

The white linen shirt he wore exposed a teasing amount of his well chiseled pectorals and Kagome couldn't help but wonder how many drinks it would take before he would feel warm enough to take his shirt off. She began to calculate.

"What's all this about, Sesshoumaru?" asked Kagome, picking up a twig and tossing it onto his pile.

"A bonfire," said Sesshoumaru.

"Oh I see. So you must have read your invitation as Build Your Own Bonfire."

"Naturally." said Sesshoumaru. "What's a beach party without a bonfire? Hopefully it won't be the only fire this evening." he said with meaning, meeting her eyes momentarily before turning his attention back to his task.

Kagome had felt the power of that brief gaze begin it's own fire within her. That dull aching need that demanded and insisted and wanted. Its influence and power alone did more to loosen her tongue and free her from any and all restraint than any alcohol ever could.

"Planning on starting a lot of fires tonight , Sesshoumaru?" said Kagome teasingly. She wanted to see those deep brown eyes with their flecks of gold up close again. He had teased her once, almost kissed her, but did nothing more than look into her eyes.

Oh how she wanted more. She wanted those long fingers to explore her. Every inch of her, inside and out.

"That depends." said Sesshoumaru, lighting the kindling. The fire bathed him in a warm glow that made Kagome feel hot all over.

Depends on what? Oh tell me! I'll do anything for you to touch me! Taste me! Take me!

"Oh? Depends on what?" Kagome asked a little breathless. Would tonight be the night? Would she finally have him?

He turned his eyes on her and came to her. Her heart began to beat fast and hard in her chest. Could he hear it? It pounded so hard he must be able to see it beating.

He knelt down between her knees, she parted them slightly and the motion sent a wave of delicious warmth rushing through her. Her nipples hardened and she felt her sex become slick with anticipation and want.

Sesshoumaru placed his hands on either side of her, caging her with his arms, and leaned forward, gently pressing himself against the apex of her thighs, her breasts rubbing against his chest.

Kagome's breath hitched and she closed her eyes. She resisted the urge to grind her hips into his, to feel his hardness against her aching sex. She felt a deep desire to do just that and having him this close and not doing it was hard.

He leaned further into her, brushing his lips against her ear, letting his breath tickle and tease her before he asked her in his most seductive voice, "Did you bring limes?"

Kagome's eyes flew open.

HELL to the NO! I can't believe it! I forgot the damn limes! How can I entice him into doing body shots without LIMES!

Kagome giggled self consciously, "No, I didn't."

Sesshoumaru pulled away slowly and stood up. Looking down on her with a beguiling smile.

"Pity."
