Chapter: 2

Once, Kagome was done explaining to Sesshomaru about her time. He stayed quiet for some time, contemplating all she had told him.

'This girl is really strange, but at least everything makes sense now. Her clothes, speech, and actions are no longer a mystery.' He thought while gazing at her from across the table, and sipping some tea. 'Still there is just something more to her that she is not telling me, or she doesn't know yet. Hmm, interesting indeed.'

Suddenly Sesshomaru spoke startling, Kagome.

"Miko what is it that you are not telling me. I sense something off in your aura." He asked, studding her to see if her actions indicated she was lying or not.

"What? I've told you everything I can think of. So I don't know what you are speaking of, but if you figure it please do let me know." Kagome said a little irritated that he would assume her to be dishonest to him. 'I mean, how could he think that? I just told him my most precious secret, and he assumes me to withhold information from him. Of all the nerve.' She ranted to herself.

Sesshomaru just studied her reaction a little more than amused. It seemed she was yelling at herself, and about to explode form the inside.

"Miko, calm yourself least your head explode. I was merely asking a simple question, no reason to get all worked up." He tried to reassure her, while smirking on the inside. 'I like it when she gets angry. She is so damn hot like that…. what the hell? Where did that come from? I should not look at her like that, for she is human.' He thought to himself with a slight frown.

"Sesshomaru? Are you ok? Did I say something that upset you?" Kagome inquired. 'He almost looked sad.' She thought.

"I am fine. No need to concern yourself with me." He stated in an almost harsh tone that made Kagome step back a few steps. 'Good be scared. It will be for your own good, in the long run at least.'

"Ok, but you don't have to be mean about it. I was just concerned, that's all!" She yelled at him. 'The nerve. Arrg.'

"Don't." He replied sternly.

"Fine. I'm going to my room to study for the tests I came back here to take. Don't leave this house please. You don't fit in and people will ask questions. You don't want that, do you?" Kagome almost pleaded with him.

"I will stay inside till you get done with those tests, but we leave right after they are done. Am I clear?" He asked.

"Yes, Sesshomaru. I promise they won't take long. After I come home tomorrow we will get my supply's and then leave. Ok?" She said, already tired just from arguing with him. 'Now I have to study tired. I hope he really doesn't leave tomorrow, I will be a headache I don't need.' Kagome thought as she went up to her room.

Four hours later Kagome started to get hungry and went down stairs to make dinner, and to check and make sure Sesshomaru didn't leave like he promised. Sure enough he was right where she left him looking bored as could be.

"Umm…Sesshomaru?" She asked

"Yes Miko?" He replied. He was sure she was going to ask what he ate, considering the late hour it had reached.

"Umm... Are you hungry? If so. What do you eat being a full demon and all?" She inquired. To say she was embarrassed was an understatement. 'I traveled with a half-demon I should know this.' She thought.

"Has Inuyasha taught you nothing of our kind? What an incompetent fool. I eat mostly raw meat. Deer, bear, and rabbits mostly." He said, but seeing she looked as if she were about to get sick he added quickly. "Cooked meat will be just fine. Thank you."

"Ok. That will work. Cause I don't how to prepare raw meat. I almost got sick thinking I would mess it up and you would hate it." She said and then blushed when she realized just what she had said.

"Really, that's what made you look green? Not the fact it was raw?" He inquired, a bit surprised.

"Well yeah, I guess." She said almost to quiet. That he almost missed it. Then she turned around and proceeded to make dinner.

The rest of the night went by in silence till bed time came around.

"Sesshomaru, you can sleep in the guest room, if you like." Kagome told him then turned to leave. What he said in return made her stop cold.

"I'll sleep in your room." He said

"Why?" She asked

"I don't know this place would rather be close so if you need me I can be there." Sesshomaru replied. Narrowing his eye in a challenging way. "Don't argue with me. I will win."

She just gulped and nodded her head and went to bed with Sesshomaru right behind her.

That's all for now hope you all like. Please review.
