Silent Wishes...
Chapter 10.
Kagome sighed and flopped back on to her cloud with her eyes closed. A few minutes later she opened her eyes, but shut them quickly due to the bright sun.
When she opened them again her eyes focused on the thing that was above her. There Sesshomaru stand right by the top of her head and was leaning down, three feet from her face.
Kagome screeched in surprise, and her cloud dissipated from lack of concentration and pure shock. She thought she was going to fall because she was trying desperately to call for her denomic cloud.
Her youkai surged forth, but the cloud didn't appear. Kagome cried out in helplessness, then when she felt something brush against her, she immediately clung tightly to the object.
She had her eyes shut tightly, then the wind from her falling had stopped. Kagome peeked from her left eye, then both of her eyes grew wide when she saw she was face to face with armor.
Shyly, she looked up to see his face, her ears drooped in slight shame. To her surprise he wasn't angry at all, no smiling, not even the smallest glint in his eye to signal even the slightest bit of irritation.
Her eyes went owlish, and just blinked at him. Sesshomaru held her bridal-style and her arms were flung around his neck. Kagome's puppy ears went straight up, as if on alert, and her tail swished once.
She snatched her arms from around his neck, as if they had gotten burned, and squirmed violently in his hold. Finally she gave up trying to get away from him, she crossed her arms and looked in the other direction and pouted like a small child when they didn't get their way.
Several emotions crackled in her eyes, her cheeks puffed out more, when she thought of the situation. Sesshomaru dead-panned at her childish behavior, 'How could someone be so childish?!'
She didn't look at him for several reasons: 1, totally embarrassed she had to be saved, 2, she was blushing like mad because he was holding her bridal-style and still hadn't put her down, 3, and is unnerved that he hasn't said anything to her about his new fashion statement.
The last part made her giggle a little, but still didn't look at him now because she could feel his piercing stare. Kagome tried to wiggle her way out his hold again, she almost got into a good spot to get away when he tightened his arms.
She squeaked at the sudden movement, she looked at him and hissed lowly, "Let me down, I can walk perfectly on my own."
Sesshomaru's eyes stared at her face, he was looking at her markings. Her cheeks had the same exact stripes as his father's, color and all, and her eye-lids were like his but the same blue as her stripes. And adorning her forehead was a blue star.
Slight pain came from his scalp. Sesshomaru saw that her hand had a fist full of his hair and was tugging really hard.
He growled slightly in warning, "Stop pulling this Sesshomaru's hair..." "Make me 'Maru-chan'!" Kagome shot back. He glared at her, she stuck her tounge out at him.
"One last time or else! Put. Me. Down!" Kagome growled. Sesshomaru scoffed, "What could you do to possibly harm this Sesshomaru demoness?"
She straightened up in his arms and cupped his face in her clawed hands gently. Her lips brushed his, and he froze in his spot. "Or this will be your punishment..."
Her breath tickled his lips. Sesshomaru didn't notice her lean back in time, she head-butted him really hard. He stumbled back caught off guard, and Kagome jumped away from him.
She fell on her bottom and wailed loudly, "OWWW! THAT HUUURRTT!" Sesshomaru growled and put his hand to his forehead, "You fool. What are you trying to accomplish by causing harm to yourself?"
"You wouldn't let me go you clingy dog! So I had to take precautionary actions!" She snapped back. Kagome whimpered and held her aching head.
Quiet foot steps walked towards her, she looked up to the owner of the black boots only to see a hand-held out for her.
She stared silently at his hand, he waited patiently for her to take his offer to help her up. Kagome looked at him with owlish eyes, then his hand seized hers.
She squeaked and tried to snatch her hand away, but couldn't. Once she was on her feet, he let go of her hand slowly. Kagome looked at him frowning, but her eyes sparkled in mischief.
The inu demoness walked closer to him and wrapped her arms around his neck. Kagome whispered into his ear, "We will play a little game now... You gotta find me... Oh, and Sesshomaru? You might wanna see your reflection, that's when the game starts..."
Kagome kissed him quickly on the cheek and took off running full sped, leaving Sesshomaru in the dust.
Sesshomaru stared at nothing and his hand touched where she just kissed him. He froze once again from just now getting what she meant.
The demon lord looked into the pond that was a few feet away, his eye brow quirked when he saw his reflection. 'H-have I looked like this all morning?!' Sesshomaru snarled mentally.
