I do not own Inuyasha.
Kagome watched Sesshomaru walk out of the hut. She sat there with a confused look on her face until Inuyasha burst through the door and sat down beside her.
"Feh, I thought he'd never leave. I'm starving, Kagome, fix me some ramen would ya."
Kagome looked at him with happiness first and then anger. He was always trying to eat all her ramen that she brought for the WHOLE group, and then expected her to fix it for him. It wasn't that she didn't like cooking for him, but god, he could do it for himself every one in a while.
"No Inuyasha, the ramen is for everyone and you already ate 5 cups of it today. I have to think of the others. You can go catch some fish or something. If you do I'll cook that for you, but if you want ramen, you're sadly out of luck."
Inuyasha went to reach for her bag while she was talking, but then stopped when she smacked him on the hand.
"AAHHH! KAGOME! WHY YOU GOTTA BE SUCH A PAIN IN THE BUTT! I JUST WANT ONE MORE CUP!! YOU'RE ALWAYS SO MEAN TO ME!!! SANGO AND MIROKU DON'T NEED AS MUCH FOOD AS ME!"
Kagome pulled her pack behind her.
"INUYASHA!! STOP WHINING! YOU'RE THE PAIN IN THE NECK AROUND HERE!! AND IF I'M SO MEAN, THEN DON'T HANG AROUND HERE ANYMORE! YOUR SO SELFISH SOMETIMES, I DON'T KNOW WHY I PUT UP WITH IT! YOU NEED TO GO, NOW, I CANT HAVE THIS RIGHT NOW, I HAVE TO THINK!"
Inuyasha stood up and then walked out the door shouting.
"HA! ME SELFISH! I PROTECT YOUR WEAK BUTT ALL THE TIME AND I'M SELFISH. GO AHEAD AND THINK KAGOME, TRY AS YOU MIGHT YOU'RE GONNA BLOW YOUR HEAD UP CUZ YOU AINT GOT NO BRAIN!"
Kagome sat down and crossed her arms closing her eyes.
"Sit jerk!"
There was a loud thump outside and followed by a GAAHHH!! Kagome smiled to herself hearing the thud and nodded her head.
"That's what you get for being such a jerk!"
Shippou and Rin were watching the whole time and laughed hearing Inuyasha get the dreaded Sit command. When everything was quiet, and the only thing that could be heard was the scribbling of crayons and the fire flickering Kagome sat back, relaxed and began to think about what she would ask of Sesshomaru.
----------Kagome's Thoughts-----------
Mhm, I wonder what I should ask Sesshomaru for. Maybe a kimono? No that would mean that he liked me. Oh, I know a new bow? No I just got a new one from Kaede. Should I just say nothing? Well, he said that he was a demon of his honor, or something like that, so that means that he isn't going to not just give me nothing. Ugh, if I knew this was going to be so hard I would have declined his offer. Oh I don't know what I'm gonna ask for. Maybe if I get some sleep it will come to me in my dreams.
---------------Normal POV----------------
Kagome laid her head down on her pack and closed her eyes.
"Go to sleep, sleep, sleep!………UGH! This isn't working!"
Kagome opened her eyes and sat up. After 5 minutes of trying to sleep, Kagome gave up. She stood up and stretched her muscles.
"Maybe a walk will help me think."
Kagome grabbed her coat and told the children to stay inside. She walked out of the hut and zipped her jacket. She started her walk passing the sleeping Inuyasha high in a tree, and then started into the forest next to the village. She made sure she looked at her surroundings every once in a while so she could find her way back easily.
After a while Kagome came to a clearing. In the middle was the Bone Eaters Well that she used to travel through time to come to this era.
"Hmm, I didn't know that I was headed here, how strange."
Kagome continued to the well and ran her hand along one of the beams.
"My old friend, I wonder how many times you will allow e to pass through you before you close up for good."
Kagome sat down on the edge of the well then.
"Well I guess when that time comes, it will be the right decision that you make."
Kagome leaned back a bit and then looked intently up at the moon and the stars as if she were in deep thought.
Little did Kagome know, Sesshomaru was in the forest next to the well, watching her actions.
"So that is how she travels through time. That well is her passage. Interesting."
Sesshomaru watched further, as the girl kept her gaze on the stars. She looked as though she were almost a statue. Her breathing slowed and her head drooped just the slightest bit. Sesshomaru waited for her to move, but it never came. She just stayed there. Sesshomaru, who had been resting in the forest before her arrival, got impatient, so he stood and walked over to the well. All the while Kagome, did not move, she didn't even turn her head to see who was coming towards her. Sesshomaru couldn't believe that a priestess of her level couldn't sense him coming up behind her like that. If she couldn't sense him then she should have heard him, he wasn't trying to be quiet in his approach.
"Kagome, could you not sense me? If I were an unfriendly demon I could have slaughtered you by now. And-"
Sesshomaru looked at the sight before him with surprised eyes.
"She's asleep, interesting."
Sesshomaru watched her sleeping body and then saw her beauty. She truly was the most beautiful person he'd ever seen, human or demon. Her coal black locks fluttered in the light, fall breeze, her cheeks rosy pink from the cold nipping at them. Her face oval and smooth, lips perfectly shaped, and her nose not to big, not to small. All around she was perfect. Sesshomaru had to take a step back to make sure that he wasn't seeing things, or it wasn't a trick of the moonlight. But even when he looked again, she was stunning. Sesshomaru gasped, when she began to awake. Her eyes fluttered open and then Sesshomaru saw that her eyes were the most beautiful shade of murky brown he had ever seen.
"Oh.. Sesshomaru? I must have nodded off. Is something wrong?"
Sesshomaru stared at her and then realized that she was talking to him.
"Uh, no, Kagome, I was just resting in that forest there when I saw you walk to this well. You fell asleep and I came to make sure everything was alright. You weren't out long."
Sesshomaru nodded to the forest where he was laying and then turned to walk off.
Kagome looked to the forest and then got up walking in the direction of the village. When she began walking though her foot, unfortunately, got caught in between two roots of the Sacred Tree. She tripped in the process twisting her ankle. She shrieked out in pain and the bit her lip trying to hold her sobs back, realizing that if any demons were near by she was a goner.
Sesshomaru easily heard her scream and ran back to her immediately.
"Kagome, what happened?"
His voice was as cold as ever, but his words had a certain gentleness to them that matched the masked emotion in his eyes.
"Oh, Sesshomaru, I tripped and my ankle got stuck between two of the roots. I think its just a sprain, but I still wont be able to put any pressure on it, at least not right now."
Sesshomaru nodded and lifted her from her current spot with his one arm.
"Fine then, I shall carry you to the village. Will you be able to bandage yourself Pries- I mean Kagome?"
Kagome nodded and leaned her head on his fluff. (I'm not sure if it's a tail or what, so I'm calling it his fluff.) she put her hands around his neck so it would be a bit easier for him to carry her. Then everything went yellow, ad before she knew it, Kagome was soaring through the air, towards the village.
"AAAAHHH! SESSHOMARU! WHAT'S HAPPENING??"
Sesshomaru almost dropped her, he actually was surprised from her scream, but more frankly his ears were hurting.
"You will not scream anymore! We are in my traveling state. I use it to travel far distances. And if you do not wish to fall, then you will refrain from making anymore noise."
Kagome stopped her screams and nodded her head. She didn't want to fall she would die! And even if she did live, she wouldn't be able to walk to the village. Plus she couldn't hop there, she had horrible balance. Soon they were at the village and Sesshomaru hovered just above the ground beside the tree Inuyasha was sleeping in. he returned to his normal form and sat Kagome down on her left foot. She used his right arm for support as she hobbled to the hut. By now Inuyasha had woken up from the very little noise they were making and he hopped down from his perch in the tree.
"Kagome, what happened? And why are you hanging all over him?"
Kagome looked at him and then grasped onto the hut for support seeing that Sesshomaru was losing his patience.
"I was taking a walk and I fell asleep by the well. Sesshomaru was resting in the forest next to the well and saw me. When I woke up, he told me what happened and then I went to go walk away, but when I did my foot got caught between two of the Sacred Tree's roots and I sprained my ankle. Sesshomaru was just being kind and helping me back to village since I couldn't walk. There's no need for you to get so angry."
Inuyasha turned his head as if disgusted.
"Ha, Sesshomaru bein nice! Heck would freeze over before that happened! He was just tryin to get to me that's all!!"
Sesshomaru smirked and took this opportunity to tease his brother a bit.
"Are my senses failing me, or do I detect a little bit of jealousy in your voice Inuyasha?"
Inuyasha's face went red, with embarrassment or anger know one knew, and he took a step forward resting his hand on Tetsusaiga.
"Feh, no way! Age finally must be getting to ya, huh big brother?"
Sesshomaru smirked and help Kagome into the hut leaving Inuyasha with the cold shoulder.
"Hey!! Come back here and fight, Sesshomaru, ya big chicken!!"
Sesshomaru laid Kagome down on her sleeping bag that Shippou set up and then walked out of the hut. He didn't want to stare at her when she was asleep again,, it would make things a little more interesting.
