Chrysolite Heart
Superheroxnerd – You can be happy now, they're going to get they're alone time! LOL I had this planned all along though, I hope you like it and thank-you for continuing to support me in this story!
MadeNew – I've thanked you only about a gazillion times for your support but I can do it again. :P Thanks so much for your great reviews. I think most of us have all had best friend necklaces, I lost mine some time ago but that's ok. Yes, I do like to add my own personal touch to stories because it just makes me feel closer with the story and the characters somehow, thanks for your support!
Lisimi – You only read chapter 1! Or maybe you read the other chapters but just didn't review. Anyway, your review was a little bit confusing but I think I got your general idea. Thx for the review!
Stoopid Peeple – I'm glad you liked this story so much and I always update so there's no need to worry about that. Don't you just hate it when an author puts up this awesome story and then just leaves it hanging? I always did, so I won't be doing none of that. Thanks for your reviews so far and keep it up!
And of course thank-you to my other reviewers, the reviewers I listed were my latest ones, of course there's everyone else too. I'll make sure I list everyone who reviewed at the end of this story. So for now, enjoy the next chapter, it'll be a bit short but bear with me here!
Chapter 10
When they got home, Rin was once again asleep. Sesshomaru carried her inside and Kikyou held the door open for him. She let Sesshomaru take care of Rin while she roamed the house. She noticed a stack of albums neatly stacked in the living room. Out of curiosity she walked over. She opened the first one up and found pictures of Rin and her father together or just Rin. She smiled at the adorable little pictures. Kikyou was just about to turn to the last page when Sesshomaru came out of Rin's room.
"Kikyou?" he called. Kikyou turned her head.
"I'm over here," she answered. Sesshomaru walked over to her, Kikyou noticed his eyes widened when he saw she was looking through his albums. He quickly snatched it away from her.
"You really shouldn't be looking at these," Sesshomaru said briskly, placing it back with the rest of the stack.
"What?" Kikyou demanded. "The pictures are adorable," Sesshomaru blinked at her. Oh, she must have only seen the beginning…he thought to himself.
"Well, anyway, why don't I make us some coffee," Sesshomaru eventually suggested after a moment of awkward silence.
"Why don't you want to me to see those albums, what're you hiding?" Kikyou asked. Sesshomaru laughed nervously.
"Nothing," he replied.
"Then why can't I see them?" Kikyou questioned.
"Because…I don't know, I just don't want you to see them right now, alright?" Sesshomaru said in a pleading voice. Kikyou huffed. She didn't like people hiding things from her, it made her feel suspicious.
"Well, I guess I'll let you off this time," Kikyou eventually said. Sesshomaru flashed her a smile. He brought over the two cups and set them down. Kikyou picked hers up. She took a quiet sip. Sesshomaru took a seat comfortably beside Kikyou. He put an arm around Kikyou as he often did when they were alone.
"Kikyou, do you feel comfortable around me?" Sesshomaru asked. Kikyou glanced at him in surprise.
"Of course I do, why do you ask that?" Kikyou replied.
"It's just, I don't know…I feel comfortable around you," Sesshomaru whispered to her. Kikyou smiled in spite of herself. She leaned back into Sesshomaru and leaned her head against his shoulder.
"I'm glad, I don't want you to feel any other way around me," Kikyou responded. Sesshomaru leaned his head on top of Kikyou's.
"Kikyou?" Sesshomaru asked again.
"Yes?" Kikyou replied.
"I want to tell you something," Sesshomaru continued.
"Go ahead," Kikyou urged.
"I've only said this to one other woman," Sesshomaru said. Kikyou nodded. "Kikyou, I love you," Kikyou blinked and felt tears enter her eyes.
"Sesshomaru…" Kikyou trailed off. Sesshomaru looked her deeply in the eyes. He waited for her to continue. "I think…I think I love you too," Kikyou admitted. Sesshomaru leaned in towards her and Kikyou didn't resist. His lips met hers in a smooth and soft kiss. Kikyou felt her senses tingle as they met. Sesshomaru deepened the kiss, when he let go both of them were panting. Sesshomaru smiled a secret smile and then planted a kiss on Kikyou's forehead before Kikyou leaned back into him. Everything felt right, but little did they know that this perfection might not last very long.
A/N
Aww, first kiss! Sorry for the short chapter but I wanted to end it on the kiss. Did you guys like it? And what's going to get in between them, well, you'll find out? And what about Sesshomaru's strange attitude towards that album, what was on the last page? Wait and see. But while you're waiting, leave a review behind to encourage me to keep going. LOL
