Last Time:

"I'm glad it's up to your standards," Sesshomaru chuckled slightly, "Now let us go to bed."

Kagome nodded and ran over to the bed, jumping onto the soft mattress. She giggled in pure bliss and snuggled under the warm down comforter. Sesshomaru let a small smile grace his lips and he removed his shirt and jeans, climbing into bed with Kagome. She snuggled against his chest and Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around her, resting his chin on the top of her head.

Kagome yawned, "Night Sesshou. Sweet Dreams."

"As to you, Kagome."

Will You Be Mine?
Chapter Three

It had been five days since Kagome and Sesshomaru had arrived at the Western Castle. The funeral for Izayoi was a sad one and Sesshomaru kept Kagome well hidden from Inuyasha. The sight of the hanyou's tears almost compelled her to go and comfort him, but then Sesshomaru reminded her of what he did and her resolve was hardened. Tomorrow was the Ceremony for Sesshomaru to become the Lord of the Western Lands. He was calm and collected on the outside, his hard mask firmly in place, but Kagome could see the nervousness and worry in his eyes whenever it was mentioned. She only hoped that her dear friend wouldn't forget about her while assuming his position as Lord. Missing classes was not something she was accustomed to, but Sesshomaru refused to let her leave his sight until he felt she was over the whole ordeal. He was so sweet to her. She would really miss him if he didn't see her again. She was brought out of her thoughts when strong arms wrapped themselves around her waist.

"Daijoubou, Kagome?" the deep voice asked.

"Ano… just thinking, Sesshou-kun," Kagome replied sadly.

Sesshomaru pulled away from her and she turned in his arms, looking up at him.

"About what?" Sesshomaru asked, curious.

"About what will happen when you become Lord," Kagome said quietly.

"What do you think will happen?" Sesshomaru stared into her eyes.

"That you won't have enough time for me," Kagome whispered, "Demo… you'll still keep in touch."

Sesshomaru chuckled, "Kagome, I will always have enough time for you."

"Arigatou, Sesshomaru-sama," Kagome said softly, "That makes me very happy."

Sesshomaru nodded, "I'm glad. Now come, we will train in the dojo for a little while before we retire to bed."

Kagome smiled and followed Sesshomaru down to the dojo. To pass their time, Sesshomaru had begun training Kagome, why, she didn't know. She was in a short kimono that was above her knees and was sleeveless; it was easy to move around in. When they got to the dojo Kagome jogged to the weapon rack and pulled down the sword that she had been using to fight Sesshomaru with. Sesshomaru had told her that she was a very fast learner and she was very proud of herself. She grinned and jumped into defense when Sesshomaru attacked her. She shrieked and blocked the attack quickly. The rest of the afternoon went on with Sesshomaru attacking and Kagome defending. After a few hours, Sesshomaru pinned Kagome against the ground with his sword to her neck.

"You're dead," he grinned.

Kagome whined, "No fair! How come I always die?"

"Because you don't have the skills and speed to make me die," Sesshomaru stated, helping Kagome to her feet.

"Well, when will that be?" Kagome asked.

Sesshomaru chuckled slightly, "Not for awhile longer."

Kagome glared at Sesshomaru and crossed her arms over her chest. What was the point in training her if she wasn't getting anywhere?! Sesshomaru only shook his head and walked away. Kagome sighed and followed him. They walked back through the gardens and into the castle. Sesshomaru had been trying to get Kagome to sleep in her own room because her scent and the feeling of her body pressed against his was driving him crazy. He was having a hard time controlling his inner youkai. It was ready to mate with her, but Sesshomaru knew that once she found out who she was, she would need her space. Sesshomaru also knew that she had to go back to school. He didn't want her to, though. His stupid half-brother was in every single one of her classes and he didn't know how Kagome would handle it. Plus, he didn't want Kagome away from his side.

"You should go back to school tomorrow, Kagome," Sesshomaru said.

"But Sesshou!" Kagome protested, "Inuyasha…"

"I know Kagome," Sesshomaru sighed, "But you're going to have to face him one day."

"I'll miss the ceremony!" Kagome argued.

"No, you won't," Sesshomaru stated, "It's tomorrow night."

Kagome pouted, "Fine. But if I can't handle it, I'm coming back."

Sesshomaru nodded and opened the door to his room. He held back a groan. Another sleepless night with Kagome's small body pressed against his, whimpering. Of course, he didn't mind it, but it was getting to the point where he would have to get up and go for a run to get his beast back under control. He would not let himself do the same thing Inuyasha did. She would never forgive him if he tried that. She would go into a downward spiral even worse then the one she was already in. He watched as Kagome grabbed her PJs and walked into the bathroom to get ready for bed. Sesshomaru sighed and began to take off his clothes, leaving on only his boxers which he always slept in. He sat on his bed until Kagome came out of the bathroom. Her hair was in a high pony tail and she was wearing a pair of his boxers and a wife beater… with no bra. He suppressed another groan and got into bed. Kagome grinned and jumped onto his bed and snuggled under the covers. Sesshomaru growled in a very protective manner and wrapped his arms around her waist, pulling her closer to him. Which didn't help, at all.

--------------------------------

Kagome awoke to the annoying alarm going off right next to her head. She groaned and pulled the covers over her head, hoping to get a few more minutes of blissful sleep before she had to go and face Inuyasha at school. She flinched when she felt a growl in her ear and arms tighten around her waist. Slowly she opened her eyes and saw the sleeping face of Sesshomaru. She relaxed and gently slipped out of Sesshomaru's comforting embrace. She knew that he wasn't getting a lot of sleep; she felt it every time he left her in the middle of the night. Kagome watched him for a moment. She could tell that he was in a very deep sleep because of the way his lips were slightly parted and the way his fingers twitched ever so slightly. It would take a lot to wake him up now. She wouldn't be surprised if he slept well into the afternoon. Kagome smiled softly and slowly began to get ready for school. When she was showered and dressed, she walked down to the kitchen to get a small breakfast.

"Kagome?"

She spun around when she heard her name, "Kyo! You scared me!"

"Gomen Kagome," Kyo smiled, "Do you need help with anything?"

"I just wanted some breakfast before school," she said quietly.

"You don't sound very excited to go to school," Kyo said.

"No," Kagome shook her head, "Not really."

Kyo smiled sadly at her and snapped his fingers, "Yori. Get Kagome-sama some breakfast."

"Hai!" Yori, the cook, nodded and scrambled away.

"Arigatou, Kyo," Kagome smiled softly.

Kyo nodded, "Do you know where Sesshomaru-sama is?"

"He's sleeping still," Kagome said, "And I wouldn't try to wake him if I were you. He's in that deep sleep where if you wake him up, he'll hurt you pretty bad."

"Oh?" Kyo raised an eyebrow, "How do you know?"

"I've seen Inuyasha and Miroku try to wake him up," Kagome giggled, "It wasn't pretty."

"Ah. I'll take your advice then," Kyo winked, "Do you need a ride to school?"

"Oh! That would be wonderful Kyo-kun! Arigatou!" Kagome said happily.

Kyo nodded and led Kagome out to the dining room. Kagome sat down at the table, with Kyo across from her. After a few moments of silence, Yori came out of the kitchen with a plate of food for breakfast. Kagome's mouth practically watered. There were eggs, bacon, hash browns and waffles on her plate. She grinned happily and began to eat her food. When she was finished, she gathered her things and walked with Kyo to his truck. He drove her to school and parked his car in the parking lot. Kagome grabbed her bag and got out of the truck.

"Arigatou Kyo-kun!" Kagome said.

"Don't worry about it," Kyo grinned, "Do you have a ride home?"

"Hai!" Kagome waved and ran off to her first class.

When she got in front of the door, she stopped. Inuyasha was in this class. How was she supposed to react? Gathering her courage, she opened the door and walked quickly into class. She stopped to have a word with her professor, apologizing for missing class and that it wouldn't happen again. She turned to look at the seats, there was still fifteen minutes before class started and Inuyasha wasn't here yet. Sighing with relief, she walked through the stands until she reached her best friend, Sango.

"KAGOME!" Sango squealed, jumping up and hugging her best friend, "I've been so worried about you! What happened? Inuyasha said you were with Sesshomaru!"

"Sango, I don't really want to talk about it right now," Kagome pleaded, "Just keep Inuyasha away from me, please."

"Um, sure Kagome," Sango said, confused, "But you're going to tell me."

"I know," Kagome sighed.

Class was just about to start when Inuyasha rushed in. His eyes scanned the room until he found Kagome sitting with Sango. The only seat left was the seat behind her. Kagome always saved a seat for him. What happened? Growling, he moved through the stands to the seat and sat down. He tapped Kagome on the shoulder and gaped when she recoiled from his touch. He watched as she scooted her chair closer to the desk in front of her. Why was she avoiding him? Sango looked back at Inuyasha and only shrugged. She took out her cell phone and sent Kagome a text message.

"Alright Kagome. What's going on? Why're you avoiding Inuyasha?"

"He came home late that night when you called and he raped me, Sango."

Sango stared at the text message she just received. He did what?! Sango couldn't believe what she was reading. She looked towards Kagome who was starring straight ahead. Her shaking fingers played with the necklace around her neck and her eyes darted around fearfully. She wasn't kidding. Sango reached out and took Kagome's hand and she flinched slightly. She looked at Sango who squeezed her hand. The simple action comforted Kagome. With Sango by her side, she was able to get through the three classes she had that day. Sango drove her back to The Western Castle. She didn't mention Inuyasha and for that, Kagome was grateful. She promised Sango that they would have a girl's night out with Ayame and Rin before the week was up. Nodding, Sango pulled into the driveway and parked the car.

"Do you want to stay, Sango?" Kagome asked, "The ceremony for Sesshomaru is tonight."

"Sure! I'd love to!" Sango said.

"Good because I'll need you around when Sesshou isn't," Kagome said softly.

Sango only nodded and the two girls got out of the car. When they walked into the castle, they were greeted by Soubi and another man that Kagome didn't recognize.

"Ah, Kagome," Soubi said softly, "We've been waiting for you."

"Konnichii'wa Soubi-sama," Sango and Kagome said, bowing.

"Come, Come now you two," Soubi smiled, "We've known each other much too long for formalities. I would like to introduce to you my long time friend, Tanaka, Lord of the East."

Kagome took in Tanaka. He was handsome with dark skin, bright green eyes and short brown hair. He was an Inu Youkai also, Kagome could tell. Kagome and Sango bowed, saying how nice it was to meet him.

"We have much to talk about, Kagome," Tanaka smiled, "But, perhaps it would be better at another time, Soubi and I have much to discuss."

Kagome could only nod and watched as the two older youkai walked off. Sango and Kagome looked at each other and shrugged. A servant came to collect their things and they were escorted to the dining room where they could have something to eat. Classes had started at 7:00 in the morning and it was now 3:30 in the afternoon. Kagome wondered if Sesshomaru was awake yet, he probably wasn't. He needed to get up because the ceremony started in three hours. Kyo soon came down to join them and Kagome introduced the Neko Youkai to Sango. While the two were talking, Kagome slipped out of the dining room and walked to the room she had been sharing with Sesshomaru. Kagome opened the door quietly and looked in the room. Sesshomaru was still sleeping. The covers were thrown off of him and he was lying on his back. His left arm was over his head and his right arm was lying on his stomach. His silver hair was covering his face and his arm. His right leg was propped up on his bed, his knee bent while his left leg was left straight. Kagome smiled, he looked rather cute. The fingers on his stomach were twitching slightly and Kagome giggled. She quietly walked towards the bed and climbed on top of it. Very gently, she moved Sesshomaru's right arm so it was around her waist. Sesshomaru moaned slightly and turned on his side, so both of his arms were around Kagome. His moved his leg so it was over Kagome's and unconsciously pulled her against his chest.

"Mmmm… Kagome…"

She giggled, he was dreaming about her. What could he be dreaming about?

"Sesshou," Kagome said softly, "It's time to wake up."

Sesshomaru didn't respond.

"Sesshou," Kagome tried again, "Get your butt up!"

Again, no response.

"Sesshomaru," She was beginning to get frustrated, "You have to get up and get ready and go over things with your father!"

Sesshomaru still didn't respond. Huffing slightly, Kagome did the only thing she could think of, it always worked on him when they were kids. She closed her eyes and pressed her lips against his. He didn't respond, so she pulled back and tried again. This time, a growl escaped his throat and he responded. His lips moved against hers and Kagome became suddenly very weak. It stopped suddenly, though. His lips were still pressed gently against hers. Kagome's eyes narrowed, he was still asleep. She moved up to where her face was even with his and bit his ear. This of course had no effect other then the fact that Sesshomaru let out a low moan. Kagome growled.

"Ugh! Sesshomaru!" She whined, "You're hopeless! GET UP!"

She crushed her lips against his once more and watched as his eyes fluttered open in surprise. She pulled away from him and a bright blush covered her face.

"You uhm… You need to get up!" Kagome said weakly.

Sesshomaru only stared at her and Kagome became very nervous. She began to wiggle in his embrace and stared straight at his chest, which was very well developed, she noticed. One of Sesshomaru's arms moved from her waist and his finger hooked under her chin, making Kagome squeak in surprise. He lifted her face to look at his. In his eyes she saw confusion, fear and… love? No, it couldn't be. She was just his best friend, right? Why was he looking at her like that? No one had ever looked at her like that. Sure, she had always been in love with Sesshomaru, but she figured she had never had a chance with him. She loved Inuyasha almost as much and she knew that he loved her, so that was a more sure decision… until he cheated on her.

"Why did you kiss me?" Sesshomaru finally asked.

"You… you weren't waking up," Kagome said softly, "You have to go over the ceremony with your father and get ready."

"Is that the only reason?" Sesshomaru's eyes searched her.

"Well um…" Kagome stuttered and looked away from Sesshomaru, "No."

Sesshomaru could barely hear her whispered answer, but he heard it well enough. He grinned to himself. Maybe it wouldn't be so hard to make Kagome his. Silently, he wrapped his arms around Kagome and held her tightly, his chin resting on the top of her head. He heard Kagome sigh and they stayed like that for a few moments before Kagome said he needed to get up and find his father. Sesshomaru reluctantly let Kagome go and got out of bed. He went to get ready and Kagome just sat on the bed, dumbfounded. Why did she see those emotions in his eyes? Why did he want to know why she kissed him? Shaking her head, she walked back downstairs and saw Tanaka and her mother standing at the bottom of the stairs, holding hands.

"Uh, Mama?" Kagome asked.

"Come my love," Kagome's mother said, smiling, "We need to talk."
