Sesshomaru just stared.

He Rin and jaken had just come across InuYasha's human wench sitting by a strem in the western lands.

She was very much alone.

Damn half breed brother, probably fought with her causing her to run into my lands.

This i do not have to put up with.

Only just noticng the grand taiyoukai standing behind, Kagome quickly stood.

"S...Sesh...Sesshomaru..." she stuttered completely oblivious to the demons company.

With out warning Kagome ran hugged Sesshomaru around the waist and starting crying.

Tears running down her already tear stained face.

"Thank God your here!" she sobbed into his shirt.

Sesshomaru was starting to get really freaked out now. she was actually hugging him.

"What do you want wench?" he finally managed to get out.

"Do you remember a few weeks back, when we were all under that spell thing?"

He was starting to get really worried now.

He remembered that VERY clearly.

VERY VERY clearly.

"Well you remember what happened don't you?"

She was starting to sound desperate.

"i don't know how to tell you this but..."

"I... well you see... the thing is..."

"Just spit it out wench" cried sesshomaru starting to get a bit annoyed.

"Lord Sesshomaru? What is that lady doing to you?" Rin asked after seeing kagome grasping onto sesshomaru's kimono.

"Nothing Rin. Jaken," said sesshomaru now starting to struggle at keeping up his bland emotionless face mask.

"Y.. Yes my lord?"

"Take Rin home. I need to talk to InuYasha's wench and what we might end up saying is not entirerly appropriate for someone of her age."

"Yes my lord. Come on brat." Jaken said starting to get annoyed.

"Yes master jaken. Goodbye lord sesshomaru."

At hearing this sesshomaru let a small smile escape his lips.

"I knew you had a softer side. That's why i need to tell you that..."

"Well spit it out woman! don't just stand there all day! i have better things to do."

sesshomaru was starting to lose his cool now. she was really peeving him.

"well... i... i... i love you!"

he was startled. why would anyone love him? why would she love him?

inuyasha's wench of all people!

she had told him that when they were under that spell.

"i told you a few weeks ago, but i've only just relised that i really meant it." she tried to explain.

"i accidentally told inuyasha two days ago during one of our fights. i fled soon after."

sesshomaru was stunned. he was seriously lost for words. that had never happened before.

"well i need to tell you some thing too. i'm..."

"Yes?" asked Kagome sweetly as she smiled up at the demon lord who had stolen her heart.

"You were never under a spell!"

"WHAT!"

"You were just hallucinating. You had a very bad fever when you were staying at my castle while inuyasha and i were having a series of ... meetings."
"But then why... " Kagome was suddenly red and turned to run away only to be stopped by Sesshomaru.

He had used a burst of demon speed to get around to the other side of her.

"Please just let me go..." she said trying to get past the demon lord.

"No or at least not until you hear me out."
"very well."

"I have always loved you too."

Kagome was in shock when she heard this and didn't know what to do. Sesshomaru then suddenly went and sniffed her.

"Did you know that..."

"you need a shower."

"Well dah! of course i need a shower." Kagome couldn't help but laugh at sesshomaru's comment.

"Well then would you like to accompany me home where you can bath to your hearts content?"

"thank you. god your so much nicer then inuyasha. he would never have asked such a nice thing. he would have said something like, 'feh thats your problem. your the one that stinks.' i don't know why i ever hung around with him. he's such a loser."

"i'm glad you figured it out."

"hey don't be..."

she didn't get the chance to finish. Because sesshomaru just kissed her.

---watching from the shadows----

"what does he think he's doing? that bast..."

"shut up up mutt face. do you want to be caught?"

"no! but he'd better get his hands off her."

"for once i agree with you; that's my woman he's kissing."

"she's not your woman you mangy wolf."

----------

kagome looked at the shadows. she could sense some jewel shards.

"what is it?" asked sesshomaru, with a hint of worry in his voice.

"Nothing, it doesn't matter." With that said Kagome pulled sesshomaru into a deep, passionate kiss.

--------

"Who the hell does she think she is?"

"Shut up dog turd, i'm sure he is just holding her captive and this is part of her ingenuis plan to get free."

BONK

"God you dumb." said the hanyou in the shadows with a very evil smirk.

---------

Sesshomaru broke off the kiss. "Did you hear something."

"Um...no"

"Funny because that pathetic excuse for a half breed brother of mine and that overly possesive wolf are hiding in the trees."
"Shhhh. Don't let them know that we know that they are there."
"Well then why dont we just...
