Chapter 9...er 10

Fluffy?!

Ever since the beach Reiko had been thinking about what Inuyasha said. Sesshomaru was always so confident but whenever Inuyasha calls him fluffy, he would lose his cool and chase him. Reiko smirked as mental images flooded into her mind about Sesshomaru chasing her. (Yikes! Reiko!) Right at this moment they were all just relaxing. They were back on the boat and headed for their next stop which would take them another 4 days. Of course they were skipping a couple islands. They were due back in Japan in 6 weeks. To tell the truth Reiko didn't want to go back, but seeing as it was only the 2nd week she wasn't going to be too concerned about it. She lay in the living room of the boys cabin, her legs bent at different angles and her hair splayed around her body. Rin was sitting next to her, coloring in a coloring book that Sesshomaru had bought for her when they were in Dominica. She half wished she could go have stayed a little longer, but then again, with Koga still out there it was probably best that they left when they did. She grinned at the memory of the ass whooping she gave that stupid wolf. I mean, he called Inuyasha a stupid half-breed! Kagome had told them all the conversation between them before. Partly because she wanted to and partly because Inuyasha wouldn't let her go to the beach until she told them. Did Koga know that if he had mated with Kagome his pups would have been half-breeds as well? Would he have called them worthless? Or shunned them because of it? God how stupid can one demon be? Then again, they were all dense.

"Reiko..." Rin's voice rang through Reiko's head, causing her to snap out of her thoughts. She leaned her head to the right to look up into Rin's face and she smiled at her.

"I'm sorry Rin, what were you saying?" Reiko asked kindly. Rin lifted up the picture of Lilo and Stitch she had been coloring and and smiled.

"What do you think Reiko? Did I get the colors right?" She asked anxiously. Reiko smiled and nodded. Then she heard a door open and shut, but she didn't get up, for she heard footsteps walking towards them. The next thing she knew Sesshomaru was standing over her with baggy blue jeans on and no shirt! If she wasn't laying down at the moment her mouth would have dropped and hit the floor. Her eyes grew wide and she rolled over, her long hair cascading over her shoulders in sheets as she sat up and looked up at the god before her. Rin glanced over at her and grinned. She had seen Sesshomaru like this a few times before, but she always liked seeing the reaction of the girls he brought home. Even though Sesshomaru wasn't a real playboy and he never slept with any of the women to her knowledge, he always seemed to have some woman hanging onto him. None of them were suitible for him or her in Rin's opinion. She had fun scaring them off or being unusually sweet to the ones who were almost too gothic to even question. Reiko was different though. To Rin, she would be the best person to be her mommy. So her game plans changed from today on, to get Sesshomaru to accept her as her new mommy. This was going to be fun. Sesshomaru cast his eyes towards Rin, but couldn't help but smirk at Reiko's reaction to his bare chest. Of course she had seen him like this before when they were at the pool, but my god, he looked down right sexy in those loose fitting jeans and no shirt. His beautifully sculpted chest was lightly tanned and toned to perfection. She felt the urge to just tackle him rise up in her but knowing Rin was there kept that feeling at bay.

"Rin. What did you do with all my clothes?" He asked in a monotonous voice. Rin hide her grin and quickly put on a straight face.

"Uncle Inuyasha was going to do the laundry with Kagome so I gave him your shirts and stuff to wash." Rin said innocently. Little to either of their knowledge, this was all part of Rin's devious plan to get them closer together.

Sesshomaru glared at her. What had gotten into her all of the sudden. He took a quick glance at Reiko, who was blushing now. Him not having a shirt on was almost too much for her to handle. He looked delicious to her. She turned her gaze away from him and didn't dare look back up at him. Rin looked between the two, catching their longing gazes and smirked.

"I'm going to go find Ms. Sango and play with her." Rin said and ran out the door before either of them could say a word. Reiko and Sesshomaru both looked after her. Reiko pleading her not to leave and Sesshomaru glaring at her, wondering what she was up to. Reiko sweat dropped as the door shut and she slumped down in defeat. She glanced up at Sesshomaru and her breath caught in her throat as his gaze was directed towards her and it was...a feeling she had never seen on his face before. He looked...kind. His eyes softened and were...different. She had to look away from him cause her heart was beating so fast right now that she almost couldn't breath. Slowly, two arms wrapped around her from behind. She jumped in surprise at this action and was curious why Sesshomaru was doing such a thing. (Yes, he has both arms in this fic.) His breath trailed up her neck, causing her to shiver and her heart to beat faster.

"S-Sesshomaru?" She questioned. He kissed the vulnerable spot on her neck where a demon marks its mate and she shivered again.

"Reiko...you're crazy." He spoke softly. Reiko's eyes narrowed, expecting him to say something sweet but he didn't.

"Excuse me?" She asked, her voice rising in anger. He smirked against her soft skin and placed a kiss on her shoulder just below the first one.

"You have a crazy temper, and your attitude is nothing short of spastic, and you can no doubt kick ass, as you demonstrated with Koga." He said softly. This calmed Reiko's temper and she listened more intently. There was a but in that sentence that he didn't say.

"And it might make anyone crazy. But...It only makes you more appealing to me. It makes me want you even more. Reiko...what if I told you that I loved you?" He breathed against her skin. This earned him a gasp. Reiko blinked a few times in surprise and confusion. She was speechless for a long while. Did he just say...that he loved her?

"Ha ha, oh I get, your teasing me again aren't you? Well ha ha the jokes on you." She said. At this he lifted his head and turned her around to face him. His eyes were serious, there was no trace of joking in his eyes and her eyes widened, her mouth parted slightly and became dry.

"You're not joking are you?" His eyes narrowed slightly to their usual look of no emotion and he shook his head. Her breath caught in her throat, not sure what to say, or sure if she could speak.

"I love you Reiko. There is no joke in the way I feel about you. And the fact that you thought I was joking concerns me." Reiko looked away from him. What has gotten into him? He kept his gaze locked onto her, expecting an answer.

"Will you quit giving me the evil eye already! God you are so serious sometimes it's scarry Fluffy." She said with a straight face. His eyes widened and then narrowed.

"What did you just call me?" He asked in a threatening voice. Reiko smirked, he had heard that one word and his whole demenior changed. She stood up and backed away from him. She wasn't sure what he was going to do but she was going to be ready for a chase. He stood up and took a step towards her.

"I called you fluffy. I think it's a cute nickname don't you? Of course I heard it from Inuyasha. I just wish I had come up with it sooner. It fits you know, cause your tail is so damn cute and fluffy."

"You'll regret calling me such a nickname." He said in a dangerous tone of voice. Reiko smirked and stepped to the other side of the couch.

"Oh, what's the puppy going to do now? Are you going to bite me?" She asked in a baby talk voice. His eyes narrowed and he lunged for her, but came up short as his stomach caught couch. Reiko jumped away, squealing in fear and laughter. He growled and jumped over the couch as she ran for the door. Just as she reached the knob to get out and opened in slightly Sesshomaru's hands slammed it shut and locked it. Reiko screeched and turned to face the fuming Sesshomaru.

"Uh...I better um..." Reiko slipped beneath his arms and broke into a full out run for his room. With uncanny speed he beat her to his door and stood between her and the room.

"You're not getting away from this one." He growled in anger.

"Oh really? You don't scare me Fluffy! And there is nothing you can do to change my mind!" She yelled at him in determination. He glided behind her and slammed his hands on either side of her head. She turned around, jumpping in shock. He pressed her against the back of the door and smirked at the flash of curious fear in her eyes.

"I don't scare you huh? How is it that everyone that works for me is frightened but yet I can not get you to look at me in fear?"

"Cause I know that you wouldn't hurt me. Cause I know that under that emotionless look in your face there is just a big puppy just waiting to come out and play." Reiko teased him, a wide grin on her face. Sesshomaru leaned closer to her, his lips just barely an inch away from hers.

"A big puppy am I?" He asked against her lips, causing her to shiver in anticipation.

"Yeah...Fluffy." She breathed seductively against his lips. Within seconds he crushed his lips to hers, capturing her breath in his mouth as his tongue did battle with hers. (Again, rated T everyone, so don't freak out on me.)

"I knew you couldn't resist me." She teased him. He wrapped his arms around her and crushed her body to his as he kissed her passionately again. She moaned into his kiss and he smirked. (Man this is getting hot)

"Say it. I know you feel it too so say it." He breathed against her lips.

"Never." She whispered and he kissed her again in slow torture.

"Say it." He whispered as he moved kisses down her neck.

"Why?"

"Cause I demand it." He breathed with a smirk.

"Well you'll just have to get used to not getting your way with me. Cause I won't comply like your other lackies." She breathed as he kissed that vulnerable spot on her neck.

"I need to hear you say it."

"Fine. I admit it." He stopped kissing her and looked into her glazed over eyes.

"Admit what?" He persisted with a grin.

"I'm in love with you Sesshomaru." She said. Then she fake pouted, sticking her lip out.

"Now that's better." He said and kissed her again. She leaned into him and he smiled against her lips.

"Rin should be back any minute I imagine." Sesshomaru said with a smirk.Reiko shrugged her shoulders.

"I don't think so. I think she planned this little alone time for us. Why not use it?" Reiko said with a grin.

"Not this time Reiko. But I'm sure there will be plenty of other times."

"Aww, you're no fun, Fluffy." She said and giggled at his scowl.

"Do not call me that." He warned.

"It pleases me to call you that right now, so I'm going to call you Fluffy."

"I bet I could think of other things that would please you just as much."

"SESSHOMARU!" She screamed and he chuckled, letting her go and walking towards the door.

"Where do you think you're going Fluffy? I'm not done with you yet!" She yelled at him.

He scowled at her again and pointed towards the laundry room.

"I'm going to go get a shirt before you go crazy again." He teased and she huffed in aggrivation.

"I go crazy?! You were the one who kissed me!" She screamed as he left her red faced and pretend angry.

Okay, I'm finished with this chapter. I'm not sure if I was too bad or not with the fluff. If I was I'm sorry, I'll tone it down. But I think it was funny, kind of. Anyway, the next chapter won't be posted for a little while longer, I'm going to my cousin's today and I'm going to be spending the night tonight. So I'll talk to you all later and hopefully post another chapter by Friday of next week. Though really I think I'm just jinxing myself when I do that, but I'll try. Till next time. Ja ne!
