Yay! A SessKag! Thank you to those who got past my sucky summary to be reading this! MyTwiliLove does not own Inuyasha, you all know who does...
You readers, enjoy!!
"I'll be right back you guys, I just want to go take a bath, okay?"
"Do you want me to come with you?"
"No, don't worry Sango, I'll be fine." Kagome rushed out of the hut with as much grace and nonchalance she could muster-meaning she bolted out of there with barely concealed tears.
The day was going from bad to worse. First she had gone home to find out that she had only barely managed to pass her classes, with the threat of needing remedial Math if she failed once more. Then she came to the feudal era to find Inuyasha and Kikyou sucking face in the forest, oh yes and then right as she had almost successfully slipped away from the two lovers she tripped and almost blew her cover, but instead had bit her arm to hide the horrid scream which was now stuck in her throat. Not only that, but her arm bled and her shin ached by landing on the sharp-edged boulder.
'Ah, this water is just so perfect, if only my life was, if only my life was as simple as bathing in this pool.' Yes, her life couldn't get any worse…or so she thought as she stripped and lowered herself into the relaxing pool of spring water. But as fate was cruel, Kagome was just about to get another knot to tie into her complicated mess of a life.
'Hmm, looks like there is water nearby, maybe I should wash off.' The tall, lean demon thought as he was standing under the raining blood of the idiot who had dared challenge him. As the dark, red liquid layered the demon, he figured that it would offend his companions if he came back from his 'walk' drenched in blood. As the demon ran towards the water, he smelt a presence, a familiar, interesting one at that, no make that a disgusting one and a human one at that. 'Great now I have to deal with her… first that idiot and now this one' thought the demon as he neared the water source only to be slightly surprised to be facing the bare back of the woman singing. Singing! As if she didn't realize his presence! However the words of the song did not escape his ears…
I tried so hard and got so far
But in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all
But in the end it doesn't even matter
Kagome abruptly stopped in her song as she noticed a dark pair of eyes following her movements as she soaped her upper forearm. The person's aura was incredible, to say the least, though it was confusing on whether it was menacing or not. Kagome was tired of playing it safe, with Inuyasha being the reasonable one, with her life being the dependable one, so she decided to confront this aura.
'If it was a demon, what would be the worst it could do? Kill me? Feh, like I care anymore.'
Kagome lowered her arm into the water, flipped her hair back and looked over her left shoulder only to find a pair of sharp, yellow-golden eyes staring back and met white hair framing the face with the mouth set in a bored line, even though the eyes had an underlying flame make them shine. This was the one demon that could make Kagome care about dying, the one who already had her quaking where she stood with only a smoldering look.
"You…What are you doing here?"
'Did she just question me?'
"I'm here for the same reason you are, to wash the filth off of my body." Kagome was left speechless as the demon suddenly came out from behind the trees and started to strip, obviously to go in to the spring. As the weaponry followed by the armor then piece by piece of clothing was taken off, Kagome watched as the demon turned around with the muscles of his back flexing as he continued the removal of his clothing. Then as the last pieces were taken off, Kagome abruptly looked away; she was ready to face a demon, but one that was there to kill not one that was stripping to join her for a bath.
Splash, splash
Kagome spun around and opened her eyes only to be dismayed at the site of the empty section of land that the demon was at, had she dreamt it all after the episode with Inuyasha, maybe she had stayed in the water too long, the steam was getting to her head. As Kagome decided to finish her bath more quickly in the fear that her hallucinations would become worse, she became engrossed with her bath therefore not hearing the subtle, yet distinct steps ad water noise that was coming her way from behind.
That is until the words, "What is that white substance that you are washing yourself with?" were whispered directly in her ear from behind. As expected, Kagome jumped and turned around suddenly ad started taking small, wide-eyed steps back until she tripped backwards going under the water's surface. Luckily before she saw any part of him underwater she was hoisted back onto her feet by said demon only to be shaken and demanded "I want to know the answer to my question, and what about me is so revolting that you cannot stand the idea of me touching you?" in response not answering his question and about the half cringe and half slinking away from his touch that she was doing while he was speaking to her.
"No it's just that I have never seen or been near a naked man before." Kagome stated as she stopped flinching, squared her shoulders and looked the demon in the eye.
"Don't make me laugh, you, being Inuyasha's mate have never seen or been near a naked man before?"
As much as it stung, Kagome refuted with "Sesshomaru, please, I am not Inuyasha's mate."
"Do you expect me to believe that?" He questioned as he menacingly stepped toward Kagome as she stepped back. This motion continued until Kagome hit the edge of the spring and he came to stand only a centimeter's breadth away from her.
"Yes."
"Really…?" He came closer be leaning over so that his eyes were leveled with hers since her voice was losing volume every time she spoke.
"Yes."
He again whispered in her ear, in this case asking "So if I decided you were my mate, Inuyasha would have no problem since you mean nothing to him, as a mate that is."
As she winced at the blunt words she still persistently answered, "Yes."
"So would you?"
"Would I…?"
"Would you?"
"Would I what?"
"Be my mate."
"WHAT?" After which Kagome promptly fainted.
Wee! That was fun! (SONG EXERPT: In the End by Linkin Park) This is my first Inuyasha fanfic, so tell what you honestly think! see you next time. toodles
