"Rin, how are you feeling?" questioned Kagome, concerned.
"I don't feel to well really." groaned Rin.
"You should go back to sleep then." whispered Kagome.
"Al-alright then." said Rin, stifling another yawn. And with that, she didn't say another word.
"Kagome, time for dinner!" Kagome's okaa's voice made all of them but Sesshomaru jump.
"All right, Mom! We're coming!!" yelled Kagome back.
As Sesshomaru carried Rin downstairs with Kagome behind him, Kagome couldn't help but think that dinner was going to be interesting.
Now-----
Oh no, you've got to be kidding me, Kagome thought, staring down at dinner. Curry. Anything else but curry, onegai!! Trembling, Kagome glanced over to see Sesshomaru reaction. Sesshomaru, as Kagome had expected, just looked blankly down at the unfamiliar food. At least he won't be eating. I don't think Sesshomaru's hungry right now.
"I will try some," said Sesshomaru, emotionlessly.
He's actually going to try some food!! In front of me!!
This is not good, thought Kagome, as they sat down. Inuyasha threw up the curry the first time he tried it, mostly due to his heightened senses. But Sesshomaru's senses are almost twice as powerful as Inuyasha's. Oh no, oh no...
Kagome held her breath as Sesshomaru took a bite of curry. Her face turned red, then she burst out laughing.
"Haa haa haaahaaaaa!!! Sesshomaru, you look so funny, haaaa haaaa haaaaaaaaa!!!" Kagome thought she could have died from laughing.
Sesshomaru's normally emotionless face had turned green, and his cheeks had swelled up. His mouth was bursting with the effort to keep the curry inside.
"Sumimasen," he mumbled somehow through all the food, and he dashed with youkai speed to the bathroom.
Kagome's okaa-san blinked at the afterimages Sesshomaru made.
"I must be having visions," she muttered, as she got up and went to bed early.
Kagome's mom's reation only made Kagome laugh harder.
"Whoo whooooo haaaa haaaaaa!!!!!"
>> Fast forward to after dinner
Sesshomaru was embarrassed. Very embarrassed. When Kagome came upstairs after dinner, he pinned her lightly to the wall and growled at her, "You will not tell anyone about tonight's events, least of all that hanyou Inuyasha."
Plastered on Kagome's face was a goofy grin, but after hearing the taiyoukai's demand, she sighed and said, "Fine, fine. I will. But then you have to promise to wear the clothes I give you when we go out tomorrow. I can't have a youkai standing out in the open with an almost non-existent kimono and two katanas!"
"This Sesshomaru has never changed clothes, nor will he do it now."
Kagome blinked with surprise.
"Uso yo? I thought you had several pairs of the same clothing. How do you keep it clean without taking it off?"
"With yoki, which ningens do not have." he said as he walked into Kagome's room.
"Oh, come on, do it for Rin!! All you have to do is change!!" Kagome whined.
"Iie," Sesshomaru growled, signaling finality.
Kagome sighed.
"Fine. Go ahead and attract a lot of stares." With that, Kagome turned to take a shower.
When she came back, she found Sesshomaru leaning against a wall inside her room, with Rin in his lap. His eyes stared into space, like usual.
Kagome was not very comfortable sleeping in a room with an enemy, but she guessed it was fine this time, since Rin was here.
"Oyasumi nasai, Sesshomaru."
"-Sama." he corrected her with obvious boredom.
"Right. I almost forgot." said Kagome with sarcasm.
Sesshomaru gave no response, as Kagome climbed into bed and turned off the light.
I hope Rin-chan will be alright, thought Kagome, her mind drifting off to sleep.
