Calm
"Inuyasha, I think maybe we should go with Sesshoumaru to his place."
Kagome braced herself for more yelling, clutching the Tetsuseiga in her arms like a lifeline. He'd been so adamant about them not going to the fortress that she knew her acquiescence would not be welcomed at all.
Yet when the hanyou turned to look at her, he said nothing, only looked at her pensively.
She flushed bright red, speaking quickly before he shot her down completely. "I-I mean, I'm way out of my depth here. I have been since I got to this era. And now there's a demon in my head talking to me who claims to be your father. I don't know what to do, and Sesshoumaru seems like he might have some idea." Inuyasha sighed and open his mouth, but she pressed on, wanting him to understand. "If you know something, anything, then I'm all for hearing it. Really. I just want this guy out of my head."
She fell silent, knowing if she spoke anymore she'd start crying.
'Be calm, pup. Nothing bad will happen.'
'So says the one causing the harm.'
Inuyasha stared at her a little bit longer before he again turned away. "Yeah, we'll go."
She gave him a watery smile and reigned in the urge to hug him. "Thank you."
-FI-
A.N. Kind of a filler. I had them just arriving at the castle and that didn't feel right after Inuyasha fought it so vehemently. This works to get him/them there!
I do not own Inu-Yasha and Co. Nor do I profit from writing this drabble story, it's purely for enjoyment. This is meant to be a set of interconnected 'oneshots' or 'drabbles.' The installments are going to be short. I'm not going to lengthen them unless the story calls for it.
Please Regard Me Kindly,
I Agree
