Chapter 4: Lips

She could just gawk at him for hours. His voice was deep and rich. God, how could he be real? Why was he here again, oh yeah, he's Kikyo's fiancée.

Kikyo noticed her drooling state and nudged her with her elbow. Kagome got the message and was knocked out of her trance. Okay, she had to sound intelligent and graceful. "I would be honored to help you both. . . Um, what's your name again?" great so much for being smart and smooth.

"Sesshomaru Tashio, but you can call me Sesshomaru," he smirked seductively.

"Thanks," she blubbered out like a teenage girl. Gosh Kagome, get it together! She mentally slapped herself.

"So how did you two love birds meet?" Kagome changed the topic as they all sat at a table. Kikyo was holding onto Sesshomaru's arm, marking her territory. Lucky, lucky girl.

"We were at a coffee shop and when I saw her I knew she was the one. I was dumbstruck by her beauty at first sight," Kikyo squealed next to him.

"Isn't he just the sweetest? We had both ordered a double hot chocolate with black chocolate sprinkles and whip cream. We locked eyes and the rest is history. We've be honored if you would be our maid of honor Kagome, that's why I asked him to come over. I want you to help me plan everything."

"Yes, now that you have agreed to lend a hand I must take my leave. I have an important meeting with some clients," Sesshomaru said as he got up.

"Oh, come on Sesshomaru, can't you stay a little longer?" Kikyo pouted as she stood next to her fiancée.

"We shall meet later darling," he bent his head ever so slightly and pressed his lips onto hers in a tender manner. The kiss lasted seconds but that was just enough time to leave her cousin in a love trance.

"Well Miss Kagome," he addressed her as Kagome politely escorted him out of her café.

"No, just call me Kagome. Just Kagome," taking her by surprise he grabbed her left hand and kissed it. The kiss was tender and soft.

"Well Just Kagome, I look forward to seeing you again," releasing her hand he left the café.

Her face was bright red as she slowly pulled back the hand he just blessed with his lips and rubbed it across her cheek. Kikyo, was a lucky chick.

Maybe Sesshomaru had a brother. Oh, a girl could dream couldn't she?
