AN: was meant to be a short 200 word drabble, but grabbed me by the fangs and turned into a 656 word monster. I realize that Sesshomaru is slightly OOC, but this is FanFiction and he was just begging to be written the way he is (and don't tell me that the thought of Sesshomaru being a Trekie doesn't make you giggle too).
Kagome glared angrily at the incorrigible man. First, he acts all infuriated because she refused to to feel sorry about talking to to another man. It was not just any man that that she was talking to, she was talking to Kouga, who she calmly and patiently, thinking that this little fact would placate him, explained is gay (not the effervescent kind of gay, the other kind). But no, instead of him acting all sorry and both of them moving on, he had to go mope around and be oh so morose.
She threw her hands up in the air, if he was going to act like she was being all cunning and deceitful, when he should know from past experiences that she is completely without guile, then she was not going to let his toxic surliness infect her.
Sesshomaru peered under his eyebrows as she paced around the room in a snit, muttering under her breath, and had to think that it was as if someone had lit a conflagration underneath her metaphorical tail. He absolutely abhorred it when she talked to other men. It was not as if he was jealous or anything, no one as magnificent as him could be jealous. He just hated the fact that her exotic, almost ethereal, looks attracted so much attention. He had to be constant in his attention, as vigilant as a guard protecting a precious jewel, to keep her from being hit on or even, he shuddered, to think, groped.
He was startled from his train of thought when Kagome spontaneously whirled around. "Are you gay?" She asked in a whispered tone. Sesshomaru just stared at her was if what she was saying was so foreign that she might as well have been speaking French. "Well, you just were acting so weird when Kouga was talking to me and now that I'm asking you about it your acting even weirder and the only reason that I can think that you would be acting like this is if you really didn't love me and were just using me to get to Kouga because your gay," she blurted out so quickly that he had to take a moment to process it, and when he finished he had to snort.
"So you think that since I was acting like I was jealous," not that I was mind you he reiterated to himself, "I am secretly gay and am just using you to get into Kouga's good graces." He paused, as if to make sure what he was saying was completely ridiculous, "Miko, how much sugar have you had today?"
Kagome looked affronted for all of about two seconds, and subsequently looked to the side guiltily. "I might have had three triple-shot amoretto lattes this morning." She hedged, then looked up angrily at him, "But it's your fault for making me stay up till three o'clock last night to that we could see the midnight premier of Star Trek, and then getting me up so early this morning to talk about the movie with you."
Sesshomaru just shook his head as he gathered her into his arms and sat down on the couch. "How about I will try to be a little more lenient when you are talking to your gay friends and will let you get more sleep, if you will limit your coffee to a half shot of coffee in your lattes so you no longer do ridiculous things such as call me gay," he mumbled into her hair.
"Make it completely understanding when I giggle with gay friends and a full shot of coffee and you will have yourself a deal," she sighed as she snuggled up into him. Rather than argue the point he simply snuggled in to get comfortable and closed his eyes, pretending to be asleep until her breath evened out, and then accidently joining her in her rest, their argument settled until another day.
