Hey hey hey!! Another one from me! Whee hoo! It's a continuation of Within Dreams... So Disclaimer time! I don't own Inuyasha... although Gennii is mine...

She felt his hand upon her face, running clawed fingers down her cheek. She could smell him, nearly taste him. She opened her cornflower blue eyes to gaze into his golden ones. A smile creased her face, and she reached up to clasp him around the neck.

"You came back... Sesshomaru, you have returned to me... At last."

The silver haired demon smiled gently, then touched her head with his, clasping her body with his arm.

"I cannot believe you have stayed here all this time. Perhaps you do care about me." He knew that she did, he just wanted to play with her a bit.

"Of course I do. I... Sesshomaru, I.."

With a start, she woke up. Brushing her cheeks free from tears, she sighed gently. She was dreaming again of him. She had to quit torturing herself. Pulling her knees to her chest, she rested her chin upon them, her eyes gazing at the picture over her mantle.

He was holding his hair back from his face, wind blowing in the picture. She had done her best to capture his gaze in her canvas, but nothing compared to his golden eyes. She was proud of the painting, but she wanted him here. Shaking her head, she looked to the painting down a bit on her wall. She smiled lightly at the painting she had completed just a few days ago. They were her most recent visitors, and ones that she wouldn't ever forget. Looking out the window, she wondered how they were doing.

Inuyasha stopped on the road, his golden eyes shimmering angrily.

"Why is it that he always shows up when I don't want him, but when I want to smack him around, he is nowhere to be found?"

"Inuyasha, you aren't gonna find him. I don't even know why you are even looking for him." Kagome, who was walking behind him, cowered when he glared at her. Miroku was walking behind Kagome, pushing her bike, Shippo in the basket. Shippo piped up with,

"But Kagome, she was so nice to us, why shouldn't we try to make her happy?"

"I completely agree with you, Shippo. It does seem that she isn't happy very often. I myself would like to see a true smile upon her face," Miroku looked at the little kitsune as he said this.

Kagome nodded.

"It did seem that even though she smiled, she never looked happy. You're right, Miroku. I would love to see her really smile."

Inuyasha clenched his fist, lost in thought. Gennii had done more for her than even Kagome had known. He remembered when he made the mistake of grabbing the gilded box that she kept her Shikon Jewel shards in, and was thrown into a bright light. The others didn't know, nor did they ask, about what he saw there.

It was a field of white flowers. At first, he was confused, but not afraid. A breeze ruffled his silver hair, and he turned around, only to look into the blue eyes of Gennii.

"Gennii, what are you doing here? I thought we were in your castle."

She smiled, then reached out and touched his face.

"You tried to open what I told you not to. This is the punishment for it. If I didn't want you back, you would forever be stuck here."

"This would be so boring though."

"That's the point, silly. I brought you here for a different reason, Inuyasha. You have something to say to someone, but know not how. You love her, and are too scared to tell her."

Inuyasha started to stammer, but Gennii held up her hand.

"Just know that she feels the same way. When you return, don't let on that I spoke to you. Just play it cool, alright?"

He nodded, then another flash of light, and he was back in her castle.

Shaking his head, he glared up the road a bit, then looked back to the people following him.

"You guys want to take a break?" The others nodded, and they left the road.

Walking to a clearing, they settled into the grass, and Kagome pulled a picnic basket from the basket on her bike. Handing sandwiches to everyone, they began to eat.

Inuyasha nibbled on his sandwich, his mind elsewhere. Suddenly a rustle in the bushes, and a young girl with brown hair stumbled into the clearing.

"Can I have a sandwich?"

Part two soon!!
