'I can't go back, I can't go home, but most of all I cant see Inuyasha again'
Kagome had been running all night and was now somewhere in the west part of the Inuyasha forest.
"I can't go home" Kagome sobbed as reality hit her. "I'll never see Mum, Granpa or Souta again" Kagome cried into the night as she ran faster.
'Im so tired…no! I can't stop or they will find me….they can't find me' Kagome suddenly stopped as She saw a light from a fire up ahead through the trees.
'Ahh what if it's a demon… no it cant be, demons don't need fires to keep warm, they must be human' Kagome to a step towards the light 'no wait what if their bandits' Kagome took a step back.
Moments ago
Sesshomaru heard a noise in the forest and stood from his place just out of the fire light and walked into the forest.
"Wait here" Sesshomaru said simply to Jaken who He had woken to stoke the fire to stop Rin's nightmares.
"Yes lord Sesshomaru" Jaken said with a bow but Sesshomaru was already gone.
Sesshomaru circled downwind from the source if the noise and slowly crept closer to it in silent steps.
Sesshomaru could easily kill whoever it was but if it was a group, he didn't won't to put Rin in danger.
Sesshomaru could hear sobbing so he quickened his step. He stopped when he saw who it was, if not for his perfects self control he would have gasped. It was Inuyasha's wench, Sesshomaru watched as she took a step towards his camp and stop and a second later took a step back again and start crying harder.
"What am I doing?" Kagome asked herself
"I would like to know the same thing" Sesshomaru said as he stepped from behind his tree. Kagome would have screamed if she didn't put a hand hard over her mouth.
"Sesshomaru" Kagome said removing the hand "No, no, NO" Kagome yelled and ran towards his camp. Adrenalin now powered her flight so she was too scared to put two and two together to know it was his camp. Sesshomaru got worried for Rin and used his Demon speed to cut her off. Kagome ran start into his chest and fell backwards.
Kagome blinked and realized what she ran into was Sesshomaru. Kagome was laying on the ground and put her arms over her eyes
"Ok… go ahead….kill me" Kagome said in a voice that said she had given up.
"And why would I do that?" Sesshomaru asked
"You're not going to kill me" Kagome said peeking over her arms.
"You are yet to do anything wrong" Sesshomaru said "I suggest to tell my brother to stay away" Sesshomaru turned to walk back to the camp
"I'm afraid you'll have to tell him" Kagome said sitting up. Sesshomaru stopped but didn't turn around
"And why is that?" He said
"I'm no longer with him…he chose Kikyo" Kagome said as tears fell silently. Sesshomaru could smell the tears and turned to face her.
"Why is that?" Sesshomaru asked again
"Lets just say I ran away" Kagome sobbed "I don't won't to talk about it" Through this conversation the adrenalin ran from her blood and she was suddenly weak. Sesshomaru again turned to leave but turned back when he heard a soft thud as Kagome fainted from exaction. Sesshomaru sighed and walked over to her.
'Stupid human' Sesshomaru thought 'but I can't leave her to the cold' he sighed and picked her up bridal style and walked back to the camp.
Jaken stayed awake to wait for his Lord to return. When he did Jaken saw Kagome in his arms.
"Lord Sesshomaru is that not Inuyasha's Onna (woman)" Jaken asked and on receiving no answer he did not ask again. Sesshomaru laid Kagome down by the fire.
"A blanket" Sesshomaru said simply
"Yes Lord Sesshomaru" Jaken said and rushed to AH and UN to get a blanket for the girl. 'She does not appear to be hurt and I don't smell blood' Sesshomaru though as he crouched on one nee beside her 'I wonder why she is running from my brother… what will Rin say about her' he stood and returned to were he was sitting previously. Sesshomaru watched as Jaken placed the blanket over her.
"Is that to your liking milord" Jaken asked, Sesshomaru nodded once and Jaken bowed and went back to bed.
Sesshomaru watched Kagome for a while thinking what would make her run from Inuyasha. About three hours to dawn Kagome started to toss and turn, mumbling in her sleep court Sesshomaru's attention.
"No…please don't…..I... I can't… (Whimper)Naraku… I won't…hurt him" Kagome mumbled tossing her head. Rin woke three hours later and yawned.
"Good morning milord" Rin said happily and jumping from her blankets. At that point Rin noticed Kagome.
"A girl" Rin squealed with excitement. Sesshomaru smiled slightly, this was the reaction he had expected.
"May Rin wake her?" Rin asked and Sesshomaru nodded once. Rin ran to Kagome's side and rocked her shoulder. Kagome Groaned and moved. 'please let it be a dream, I don't wont Naraku to have taken over my body I don't wont to have nearly killed Inuyasha and ran right into his brothers company' Kagome thought as she cracked open one eye to see to sparkling Brown eyes right in front of her own. Kagome screamed, scaring the girl she ran to hide behind Jaken, Sesshomaru chuckled getting Kagome's Attention.
"You" Kagome said angrily as Sesshomaru stood and practically flouted to her.
"Why were you running from my brother?" Sesshomaru asked coolly
"Like I'd tell you" Kagome snapped getting up.
"Very well, then you will assist Rin in catching her Breakfast" Sesshomaru said and Rin ran up to Kagome completely over her fright.
"Yes, yes you come help Rin" Rin said tugging her arm.
"I'd love to Rin" Kagome said smiling at her "I'd rather help you then stay with the ice prince" Rin Squealed and pulled her towards the stream not far through the trees.
Sesshomaru knew how protective Kagome was of the people she loved.
'Rin was so innocent how you could not be protective of her' Sesshomaru was right and Rin and Kagome became Quick friends. The girls returned ten minutes later Kagome was soaked and both were laughing.
"I told you I was a bad fisher" Kagome Giggled
"Yes but Rin didn't know anyone could be that bad at fishing" Rin said also giggling (Btw Rin is 5 in this)
"Hey" Kagome said ruffling her hair
"Hey" Rin exclaimed and ran from Kagome so she started chasing her. They ran around the camp three times before Kagome stopped
"It's too early for this" Kagome said doubled over breathing fast. And Rin sat beside the fire to prepare the one fish she had court despite Kagome falling into the water.
Kagome was watching Rin smiling. Kagome could feel Sesshomaru's eyes on her as she moved to sit beside Rin to dry her clothes then went back to watching Rin prepare her breakfast. After a while Kagome started to dry off. Kagome found some natural spices around to put on their fish.
Sesshomaru almost smiled at this he knew Kagome would be Rin's friend.
So Kagome and Rin Cooked the fish. After a few minutes they were eating and chatting happily. Kagome had almost forgotten her worries and the ice prince only meters away. Suddenly Sesshomaru Stood up.
"Rin get on Ah and Un now" He said and Rin Pulled Kagome towards the two headed Dragon and grabbed her Bag and mounted it. The Dragon took flight with a wave of Sesshomaru's hand as a Snake Youkai busted from the forest. Sesshomaru slashed it in half and it died. Sesshomaru Scrunched up his nose at the smell of the creature's rotting flesh. A Cloud appeared under Sesshomaru's feet and flew Westward with the others in tow.
'Well I guess Im going with them… at least for now' Kagome though as she watched Sesshomaru Gliding on his cloud up ahead 'he really is beautiful' Kagome realized her thoughts 'No, no, no' Kagome shook her head 'I will no set myself up again' Sesshomaru could feel her Distress and glanced back at her shaking her head, Rin looked worried.
"Is Kagome Ok?" Rin asked and Kagome stopped
"Oh yes I'm fine its just fly's" Kagome lied and felt awful for it.
"Rin hates fly's too" Rin said and swatted at an imaginary fly and laughed and Kagome joined in. Sesshomaru felt her lie but assumed she had a good resign and desisted to ask her later.
Rin soon fell asleep on Kagome's lap and she held her close, Kagome didn't notice Sesshomaru was watching her at this point.
'She is very motherly, protective, smart, beautiful….'the list continued for a moment until Sesshomaru noticed he was complimenting a human. Sesshomaru growled and scared Kagome and she moved back from Rin a bit, she knew how protective he was of her.
Sesshomaru regretted growling now (yes he regretted something) and slowed his cloud to fly beside AH and UN.
"Yes My Lord" Kagome said respectfully. Sesshomaru noticed she used the Wording My Lord instead of milord but did not proceed to correct her, it sounded nice to be Her Lord. Sesshomaru was shocked by his thoughts and shook his head to rid himself of them.
"My Lord are you well" Kagome asked surprisingly concerned, Sesshomaru was also surprised by her concern and his mast slipped for a second but she was looking away while a light blush graced her cheeks.
"Yes I am well, human" Sesshomaru said politely, Kagome sighed
"Why is it so hard to say Kagome?" Kagome Whispered, Sesshomaru Decided to ignore this comment. "We will be stopping soon" Sesshomaru informed her coldly and flew back ahead.
Within the hour they had made up camp and had a roaring fire and had eaten dinner. Kagome offered Sesshomaru some fish but he declined, telling her 'This Sesshomaru does not eat human food' so she gave it to Rin instead for Jaken had declined too.
Kagome was lying under a blanket with Rin beside her, Rin was asleep but Kagome couldn't so she watched the stars. Kagome felt Sesshomaru watching her so she diverted her eyes from the half moon to look at him. They watched each other for a moment before Sesshomaru Moved his gaze to the sky and so did she.
After a while Kagome slipped into another uneasy sleep and she dreamed of the night she ran.
Kags Dream
Kagome had been sleeping in Kaede's hut when the jewels in the jar around her neck turned black and busted from the jar and entered her body. Kagome woke but had no hold over her body as it walked over to her bow and arrows.
"What are you doing Kagome?" Inuyasha asked at a whisper as she placed an Arrow in her bow.
"Inuyasha run" Kagome said
"What's wrong Kagome?" Inuyasha questioned worried
"I can't control my body" She whimpered as she let the arrow fly and he dodged waking the other residents of the in the Hut as she followed Inuyasha outside and shot again. This shot narrowly missed his left leg.
'Kill him Kagome, kill him, he betrayed you, he chose Kikyo' Naraku's voice sounded in her head
"NO!" Kagome screamed as the next arrow shot into Inuyasha's chest and all she could do to prevent his death was make sure it wasn't a purified arrow. Inuyasha was thrown to the grown from the force as the Shards flew from Kagome's chest. Naraku's poison Bugs arrived to retrieve the shards and left just as quickly to the south. Kagome fell to her knee's as her friends ran to see if Inuyasha was ok.
"Why did you do this?" Kikyo yelled with tears in her eyes (Btw Kikyo is human in this. God knows I am not Kikyo's biggest fan but a fellow reader made me realize I do respect her and hell I even thing Naraku is hot… But he got nothing compared to Sesshomaru Sigh SORRY back to the story) Kagome stared for a moment before jumping up leaving her bow on the ground and turning to flee west.
"Kagome wait" Sango yelled but Kagome just ran faster away from the people she hurt.
The she woke sweating and breathing hard, she drew her knees to her and rested her face on them and began to cry. Sesshomaru watched as she began to cry, of course he was woken as soon as she began to breathe harder. Sesshomaru felt a small tug at his soul and the need to comfort the girl but Sesshomaru simply ignored it.
After a while Kagome lay back down but didn't stop crying until she exhausted herself and fell into dreamless sleep. Sesshomaru decided to do a quick parole of his land on his cloud so they could travel to his castle in the morning and left AH and UN on protection.
Sesshomaru patrolled his land and returned before Rin woke at dawn.
"Good morning Milord" Rin said happily as she slipped from Kagome's hold and ran to hug Sesshomaru's knees.
"Good Morning Rin, will you wake Jaken and the girl, we are to return to the castle today" Sesshomaru informed her and she looked up at him and nodded then ran to jump on Jaken and woke him painfully.
"What are you doing Girl" Jaken asked angrily
"What Sesshomaru-sama told me to do" Rin said getting off him and running to jump on Kagome.
"OOF" Kagome said and opened her eyes to see Rin draped over her tummy on her belly and giggling loudly.
"I would have rathered my alarm clock woke me" Kagome said sleepily
"What's an alarm clock?" Rin asked as she got off of Kagome.
"Oh it's a small box like thing that tells you the time of day and you can set it to a time and it will go off when it strikes that time" Kagome Explained
"So it's like Jaken as small box" Rin giggled and Kagome joined her. Sesshomaru stifled a chuckle at Rin's bluntness
"I guess you could say that" Kagome Laughed out and Jaken Scaled
"Rin you should be more respectful" Jaken said angrily
"Chile out Jaken-sama it was only a joke" Kagome said as she stopped laughing. Kagome felt Sesshomaru's eyes on her and turned to look at him.
"Good morning My Lord" Kagome said as she stood, fixed her skirt and did a respectful bow. Jaken noticed her mistake to call him my lord but afraid of his masters wrath kept quiet.
"We travel back to my castle today, help to pack up camp" Sesshomaru commanded
"Yes my lord" Kagome said and bowed with her hands laced together and resting on her thighs, then span and crouched down to roll up her blanket and strapped it to AH and UN then ran to roll up Jaken's and through dirt over the fire. In less then two minuets they were ready to leave and the site didn't look like they were even there.
"Well done Miko" Sesshomaru said coolly.
"Thank you my lord" Kagome said lifting Rin to AH and UN's back before mounting up behind her. Rin took the rinse and they took flight with Sesshomaru in the lead on his demon cloud.
It was now midday and they showed no signs of stopping.
"My lord" Kagome said in a bubbly voice and Sesshomaru slowed to fly beside AH and UN. Kagome Watched his white fluffy tail flying out behind him, 'I wonder if its as soft as it looks' Kagome thought as she watched it.
"What did you wont Miko?" Sesshomaru asked irritated
"Hu, Oh um are we stopping for lunch, My Lord" Kagome asked him
"We will eat when we arrive" Sesshomaru continued emotionlessly
"As you wish my lord" Kagome said taking the rinse of the dragon and flicked them to make Ah and Un move faster. Sesshomaru speeded his cloud slightly to catch up to the unexpected bolting dragon.
"What are you doing?" Sesshomaru asked
"I'm Hungry" Kagome said as the castle came into view.
After a moment Kagome set Ah and Un down in the courtyard with Sesshomaru right beside her and slipped of the dragons back as a servant walked up to them.
"Good afternoon Milord" the servant greeted
"Prepaid the guest room beside my" Sesshomaru said coldly and Kagome sighed and took the sleeping Rin off of AH and UN and held her in her arms.
"May I take Rin to her room, my lord?" Kagome asked holding Rin close
"Show the Miko to Rin's room and then her own" Sesshomaru said and walked into the castle and to his study.
"My name is Kagome, he may not say it but you can" Kagome said smiling
"Yes lady Kagome" The servant said.
The servants showed Kagome to Rin's room were she put her into bed and kissed her forehead. He then showed her to her room over the hall and left her to look around.
Kagome's room was large with a balcony to the east to see the sun rise and a large bed.
There was a large well carved Blackwood cupboard which was surprisingly easy to open, inside were kimonos of all colors and style including mid thigh kimonos for the wormer whether to come (The bottoms are shorts).
There was a knock on the door. "Come in" Kagome chimed and a tiger Demoness stepped into her room. "Lord Sesshomaru has appointed me to see to your needs" the Demoness stated
"Cool, my name is Kagome, what's yours?" Kagome questioned
"Marita, My Lady" The Demoness stated calmly
"Nice to meet you and you can call me Kagome" Kagome said happily
"It is a pleaser to meet you too Kagome" Marita said "Milord also requests you be at dinner" She continued
"Thank you I will just get changed" Kagome said looking through the kimonos
"You may use the hot springs if you wish Kagome?" Marita said helpfully
"Thank you Marita that would be lovely" Kagome said picking up a black kimono with gold fringing and turned to the other woman "Lead the way Marita" Kagome said and followed her. They arrived at the hot spring.
"I will wait here to show you to the dining hall" Marita said with a bow
"Thank you and you don't have to bow either I'm not royalty" Kagome said smiling
"But Kagome you are a guest of Milord" Marita said
"Is that so?" Kagome said slyly
"Yes Kagome" Marita said
"Hu" Kagome said lightly and walked into the hot spring room "I won't be long" She said before she closed the door. After five minutes in the hot spring Kagome got out and put on her the shirt and trousers (If anybody knows what their called please tell)of her black and gold outfit, which was tight in all the right places to show her curvy figure. Kagome smiled and went to meet Marita outside the hot spring door.
"You look wonderful Kagome" Marita said exited
"Thanks Marita the clothes are fantastic and I think some are silk" Kagome said as she grinned
"Well that's telling you something isn't it" Marita said slyly
"Im afraid you'll have to explain yourself" Kagome said confused
"Well Lord Sesshomaru-sama only gets silk clothing for Rin-Sama and you know how he loves her" Marita gossiped
"So if I won't to know the haps of the castle I'll ask you?" Kagome asked giggling and Marita blushed
"Well the servants in this castle always gossip" Marita blushed deeper
"Its ok Marita, But I believe I am wanted at dinner" Kagome said as if she was talking to her new best friend.
"Oh yes lets go I'll show you the way" Marita said smiling.
Kagome was announced as she entered the dining room and sat beside Rin and Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru sat at the head of the table and Kagome was sitting to his left (The lady of the west sits on his right……right? Oh hell they do now) and Rin was to her right. Sesshomaru didn't look at Kagome as she entered the room for he knew he would not be able to prevent his eyes from moving over her curves 'Why did she have to pick that one?' Sesshomaru thought bitterly and kept his eyes trained on Rin as Kagome sat beside him.
"Good afternoon My Lord" Kagome said politely
"Good afternoon Miko" Sesshomaru said just as politely but not warmly. Kagome turned to Rin
"How was your nap Rin?" Kagome asked the small child on her right
"Very enjoyable thank you Kagome-Chan" Rin said smiling "It was nice of you to take me to my room and not wake me and make me walk"
"Why would I do that Rin" Kagome asked
"That's what Jaken does" Rin said innocently
"Well that's just mean to wake someone only to make them go back to sleep" Kagome said throwing a cold look at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru may not of shown it but he was amazed at this 'She has the courage to give this Sesshomaru a cold look?' Sesshomaru thought curiously
"Oh, I will tell Jaken that then" Rin said happily and continued to eat.
Through dinner Kagome and Rin spoke of all the flowers they knew and even had an argument of which flower was better Lillis or tulips and Lillis won because Kagome was on their side. They had just finished eating when Rin asked to go play in the garden with Kagome.
"You may" Was Sesshomaru reply so Kagome and Rin left to go play in the garden.
Sesshomaru then left to his study to do his paperwork. In the middle of his study was a large mahogany desk and all around the walls were shelve upon shelve of scrolls and parchments, behind the desk on the opposite wall as the door was a large window come door leading out onto a large balcony overlooking the garden in the center of the castle in a large courtyard thing.
Sesshomaru sighed and sat at his desk and pulled a scroll toward him and began to read. After no more than five minuets laughs and screams could be heard from the playing girls in the garden and Sesshomaru sighed again. After a moment Sesshomaru realized he had read the same line three times and moved the scroll aside and walked to the balcony and looked down on the playing pair. Kagome was chasing Rin around the garden and Rin would squeal with laughter when Kagome court her.
After running around a lot the pair laid on their back on the grass to rest. After a while Rin's breaths evened out and she started napping under the worm sun. Kagome started to get hot under the sun in her Black Kimono and Desired to roll up the legs a bit, so Kagome sat up and rolled the Pants legs up to mid thigh. Sure it was more then a bit but the cool breeze felt so good on her bare legs. Kagome then lay back on the grass and watched the sky but something court her attention. A flash of silver? Kagome looked over at the balcony directly west of them.
Kagome sat up and looked over to see Sesshomaru standing at the rail of his balcony that was joined to his study. Upon seeing him she waved.
Sesshomaru sighed when he saw the Miko waving 'Im getting nothing done here so I might as well go down there' Sesshomaru thought and jumped from the balcony and landed silently about twenty meters from the girl and sleeping Rin.
"Good afternoon my Lord" Kagome said bowing her head
"Good afternoon Miko" Sesshomaru said calmly but not coldly 'Why is it so difficult to be cold towards her' Sesshomaru thought angrily. Kagome Saw the anger flash in the inuyokai's eyes and sudden fear filled her aura and Sesshomaru realized she had read his eyes, his face was easy to keep lifeless but his eyes betrayed his emotions. But no other person had ever realized that.
"Is something wrong My Lord, did I do something wrong?" Kagome Questioned. Shock flashed in his golden eyes then compaction
"No Miko you have done nothing wrong" Sesshomaru said coolly and Kagome sighed
"Good" Kagome said clutching her chest lightly. Amusement lingered in the lords eyes but was soon replaced by concern as Rin woke from her nap and jumped on Kagome knocking them both over, both girls laughed
"You have three seconds Rin" Kagome said as Rin Squealed with giggles and ran.
"1, 2, 3" Kagome said quickly and jumped up and ran after Rin. Sesshomaru watched with amusement as the Miko chased Rin. After a moment the Miko court Rin and stated to tickle her. Sesshomaru accidentally let a chuckle slip and Kagome looked over at him. Rin used this distraction to get away and ran again; Kagome stared at Sesshomaru for a moment before she noticed the fleeing Rin and started to chase her again.
Sesshomaru stayed and watch the two girls chase each other until the sun begin to set and Sesshomaru sent Rin to bed.
"Would you like to watch the sunset with me?" A voice asked from behind Sesshomaru as he started to walk towards the castle, he stopped and turned to face Kagome and she smiled at him. Sesshomaru Nodded once.
"We can see it better from the balcony" Sesshomaru said and before she could respond he was right in front of her, picked her up bridal style (Using his tail because of his lack of his left arm) and jumped onto the balcony of his study and replaced her on the Flore. Kagome was slightly dizzy but nothing drastic so she leaned on her elbows on the rail of the balcony.
They watched the sunset in Silents, as the sun set it got colder and Kagome rolled down the legs of the pants. As the sun got lower Kagome started to shiver, Sesshomaru noticed this and felt a tug at his soul that couldn't be ignored, Sesshomaru was furious, not that she was a weak human that couldn't take the cold but that he cared she was cold. Sesshomaru unlooped his tail from over his shoulder and draped it over her's. Kagome gasped at the sudden warmth and softness of Sesshomaru's tail. Kagome giggled and started to stroke his tail; Sesshomaru wanted to remove his tail before he started purring but couldn't master the energy to do so. Sesshomaru just stood besides the Miko fighting down the purr building in his throat as she stroked his tail lovingly.
'It's so fluffy' Kagome thought while giggling.
'Why can't I move my tail?' Sesshomaru thought and accidentally let a small purr slip. Kagome stopped stroking his tail because she thought it was a growl, Kagome looked over at Sesshomaru standing beside her, she looked up into his eyes as he watched her and she saw confusion and something the at looked like he was at ease. Kagome smiled and continued to stroke his tail but didn't break the eye contact.
"Sesshomaru?" Kagome asked
"Yes Miko" Sesshomaru said at almost a purr, Kagome giggled 'I love the affect this has on him' Kagome thought. Irritation Flashed in Sesshomaru's eyes and she stopped giggling.
"Sorry…. I was just wondering if it's hard for you to live with just one arm." Kagome questioned
"I manage" Sesshomaru said not willing to reveal his weak point
"I think you disserve two arms" Kagome said as she saw the hurt in his eyes for the loss of his limb. 'Where is she going with this?' Sesshomaru thought. Kagome turned to stand face on, in front of Sesshomaru and placed her hand of what was left of Sesshomaru's left arm and her hand started to glow Pink with energy and her brow was frowned in concentration. Sesshomaru felt his arm start to tingle and began to return. After a moment Kagome remover her hand from his newly formed Left arm. Kagome smiled up at him.
"Good night my lord" Kagome said and walked into his study through the crystal doors and then though the Oke into the hall. She did not wait for a 'Thank you' for she saw it in his eyes and knew he would not voice it to a 'Human'.
Kagome returned to her room and went to sleep.
"Thank you" Sesshomaru whispered after Kagome left. 'Why did she do that? She knew she would get no thanks but yet she did it anyway' Sesshomaru thought
'She cares for you' a voice said in his head
'Why would she?'
'Why wouldn't she…you showed her compaction and did not force her to tell you why she ran from your brother or try to return her'
'Half brother' Sesshomaru growled
'Fine half brother now will you pay attention'
'Fine'
'She sat crying that second night but soon fell back to sleep because you were watching over her'
'She exhausted herself'
'You're such an ass'
'Is there a point to this?' Sesshomaru asked offhandedly
'Yes next time she needs comforting will you bloody well do it!'
'Fine' Sesshomaru agreed and the voice left.
Sesshomaru stayed watching the stars for an hour before deciding to go to sleep.
As Sesshomaru passed Kagome's room he heard whimpering and crying coming from inside and the smell of tears.
'Comfort her' the voice said
Sesshomaru opened the large Oke door and stepped inside. The smell of salt lingered in the air and distress. Kagome was lying asleep on her bed but kept thrashing around and whimpering. Sesshomaru crossed the room to the bed and sat down beside her, without thinking her picked her up and placed her on his lap with his tail wrapped around her small frame. Kagome Instantly stopped her distress and relaxed in his arms, after a moment she groaned and opened her eyes. Kagome smiled despite the tears running down her cheeks. Sesshomaru whipped away a tear from he cheek and smiled lightly. Kagome looked down at the tail wrapped around her chest and waist and smiled. Kagome started to stroke his tail lightly and he purred knowing it would make her feel better. It worked and she giggled, she then realized she was sitting on his lap and blushed. Sesshomaru ceased his purring when Kagome stopped patting his tail.
"Is something wrong Kagome" Sesshomaru asked using her name for the first time. Kagome shook her head but her blush deepened.
"Why were you crying? Did you have a nightmare?" Sesshomaru asked lightly and Kagome nodded feeling like a little kid in it fathers' arms. Kagome blushed at the thought and buried her face in Sesshomaru's rock hard chest. Sesshomaru could smell her arousal from how hard his chest was and how close they were. After a moment Sesshomaru realized she had fallen to sleep and lifted her back to her bed and pulled the blankets up to her chest and turned to leave.
"Don't go" Kagome whispered and he turned to face her and her eyes were slightly open. Sesshomaru nodded once and sat back down.
"Just till you fall asleep" Sesshomaru said and she closed her eyes again and he sat watching her until her heart beat slowed and she breathed evenly showing she was asleep. Sesshomaru gave a small smile and left her room to go to his. Sesshomaru changed his clothed and laid on his Futon staring at the roof.
'What came over me…why did I feel I had to comfort her?'
'Because you love her'
'I do not. I hate humans'
'Then what is Rin?'
'My daughter'
'Uh hu and human, and yet you love her'
'She is just a child' Sesshomaru growled
'Yes she is and Kagome isn't human either'
'What do you mean?'
'She is a Miko'
'A human Miko, baka'
'Yes but she is not a normal human, she is not a cold hearted killer and not a backstabber'
'…'
'She is Kind, loyal and loving, and you wish her to be that way with you and not to mention do other things much more physical'(Is it just me or is his Demon side perverted) Sesshomaru heard the smirking tone.
'I wont nothing of the sort, she is a mere child'
'No she is a young woman'
'…'
'Ha I win' the voice said happily
'No you do not I am simply tired and can not think'
'Kagome was right you are an ass'
'And how do you know what she thinks'
'You can listen to peoples thoughts duh. You should really give it a try its lots of fun…but I warn you do be careful listening to Kagome's thoughts, man their a headache waiting to happen, she can't think start that girl'
'Goodnight Youkai' Sesshomaru thought and rolled over and fell to sleep.
SESSHOMARUS DREAM (Lemony dream)
Sesshomaru was waiting in his room pacing back and forth waiting for something that he couldn't remember what. Sesshomaru stopped pacing as there was a knock on his door.
"Enter" Sesshomaru commanded and the door opened and Kagome stepped in and closed the door behind her. In the blink of an eye Kagome was pined between the door and Sesshomaru's chest
"My Lord" Kagome said shocked, Sesshomaru felt himself smile and lowered his lips and started to run butterfly kisses down her neck.
"Sesshomaru" Kagome gasped and that only proved to turn him on more. Sesshomaru ran his tough over the junction were her neck met her shoulder and were he would place his mark later. Sesshomaru pulled back earning a whimper from the girl only to be silenced by his lips crashing over hers, Kagome Moaned and Sesshomaru used this to his advantage to explore her mouth and earning a louder moan from Kagome. Sesshomaru could smell her arousal which only heightened his own. Sesshomaru pull back to let her breath and started to untie her sleeping kimono. Kagome blushed as it hit the ground and Sesshomaru studied her every curve with a delicate finger. Kagome then started to remove his shirt. His shirt soon hit the flour and Kagome ran her fingers over his muscles and they tensioned under her touch. Her hand trailed over his abs and to the top of his pants. Kagome smiled and continued until her hand was on his crutch and started to make small circles with her finger. Sesshomaru moaned.
(End dream)
The dream ended suddenly and Sesshomaru shot up in bed breathing hard. Suddenly there was a knock on the door.
"My lord?" came Kagome's voice from the other side of the door. Sesshomaru steadied his breathing.
"Enter" Sesshomaru said in a forced calm voice. The door opened and Kagome came in with Rin in her arms holding her close.
"Rin what's wrong?" Sesshomaru asked concerned
"Rin had a bad dream and wishes to have you comfort her but she was afraid of waking you" Kagome explained and walking up to Sesshomaru and placing her on his lap. Kagome turned and walked back to the door.
"No, Rin wants Kagome to stay" Rin exclaimed and Kagome turned back to them. Kagome glanced at Sesshomaru and he nodded once and she shrugged. She returned to the bed and sat beside Sesshomaru and leaned slyly on him with her legs sitting to her left and Sesshomaru with Rin on his lap to her right. Rin then snuggled close to the Inu youkai and soon fell into a peaceful sleep. Kagome soon fell to sleep leaning on Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru laid down with Rin on his right and Kagome on his left and soon fell back to sleep.
