Summary: The idiosyncrasies we love in our mates.

Kagome tossed and turned. Her interview was tomorrow and she needed a good night's sleep. Sesshoumaru read quietly in bed next to her. Her edginess was wearing on him. He really didn't see why she was so nervous. She was perfect for the job, and she would nail the interview.

He watched as she got out of bed, again, and checked the clock, again. Push the buttons, check the sound level, and then check the time. She had done this five times at least, since coming to bed thirty minutes ago. Satisfied, she came back to bed and tried to settle herself.

He watched her out of the corner of his eye.

Toss.

Turn.

Sigh.

Fluff the pillow.

She threw back the covers, got up and checked the clock once more. Then back to bed. She lay there for a few minutes. He heard her say into the pillow, "I'm NOT checking the clock again. I set it right. It will go off at six tomorrow morning."

He watched, and waited.

Toss.

Turn.

Sigh.

Nonchalantly he said, "Kagome, are you sure you set the clock?"

He felt her stiffen.

"Yes! It's set!" she bit out tersely.

He waited.

She fought the urge, but it was too much. As she got out of bed to check the clock, again, he heard her mumble, "I can't believe you! You are making me crazy!"

He let a smile cross his lips.

'As long as I am giving as good as I am getting.'
