Diiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssscccccccccclllllllllllaaaaaaaaaiiiiiiiiiimmmmmmeeeeeeerrrrrrrrr:: I no own..... just read da story.....

Sesshoumaru was on another of the many patrols of his land, but a certain sound caught his attention. It was approximately 1 mile away. The sound was very faint, and yet it still sparked his curiosity. He swiftly and silently moved towards the sound. Finally, he found that the source was Inuyasha's wench. It didn't surprise him that she was alone, or that she was singing. What surprised him was that she sounded and looked so... beautiful! Never had he found true beauty in anything. Yet, this girl was exactly that. How had he never noticed?

All the strange feelings and thoughts urged him to get away quickly, but his need to stay was stronger. Making himself comfortable with his back against a tree, he listened intently to he song, feeling fulfilled while every word touched his very soul.

As the song came to its end tears spilled from the wench's eyes. He found himself unable to leave her in her sorrow, but also unwilling to go to her. He listened to her cry for what seemed like years, but eventually she was up and moving again. She started a fire and got out her sleeping bag. It appeared that she was camping alone.

Days went by and despite himself he just couldn't leave her. Every night she would sing her beautiful ballad in the moonlight, then cry her eyes out, and every night she became more and more beautiful in his eyes. Soon though, he couldn't neglect his duties, as the Western Lord, any longer. Jaken came in search of him on the 9th day, begging him to return. He finally relented , telling Jaken to return ahead of him. He had unfinished business to attend to.

Sesshoumaru waited until after she finished her song and before she could release even one small tear, he approached her, his hand beckoning. "Come. You don't need to wallow in your sorrow forever. This Sesshoumaru will take care of you and make you happy." He watched in agony as she contemplated his offer. In 9 short days she had become a part of his life. Being with her, in turn, became natural. What would he do if she said no?

Kagome watched his amber eyes, waiting for any sign of malice or deceit, but all she could see in him was truth. Maybe she would trust once more. She'd already had her heart broken, there simply couldn't be more pain in the world. If there was, then perhaps this wasn't a world at all... but a living hell. Slowly she took Sesshoumaru's hand wondering what his next move would be.

As the delicate hand slid into his he could hardly believe it. He'd half expected her to refuse outright, after all they'd once been enemies. Slowly he pulled her forward into his embrace. Her breath hitched and he just had to stare at her for a second. They stayed that way, with barely an inch between them. Then a bird somewhere took flight, effectively pulling him out of the daze. He quickly summoned his cloud, then, because she wasn't moving, he fastened her arms around his waist, and smirked when she blushed. He flew at an unimaginable speed towards his home, bringing a new addition to his happy little "family" along with him.
