Chapter 10
"What's up with Sesshomaru?"
"Don't know. He looks so mad I wondered what happened." The girl's whispered to each other worriedly. Sesshomaru had stormed into the room 5 minutes ago and the only thing he did was sit at his desk all the way in the front, right next to the door. They stared at him bewildered but as he turned and those cold eyes glanced at them they could feel there shoulders tense.
Sesshomaru looked back at the door trying to figure out a way to kill the bastard before the bell rang. But first he had to wait until he entered the classroom. Physics was the only chance to get back at that bastard and he was going to make sure he paid big time. The picture that flashed in his mind made his fist tightened, if only he knew where he lived than he would have marched to the house and rescue Kagome, but unfortunately he didn't.
The people in the classroom waiting for class to start had their eyes on the angered student gazing at the door. His piercing golden eyes were ice cold and it seemed like no one wanted to leave the classroom afraid that the gaze would catch them. It was intimidating as he stared at the door without even blinking, his furrowed brow and his daggering gaze. It all took hold of every student in the room and they all were just relieved those glares weren't targeted at them.
"Yo, Bankotsu the headman of the university was surprised by the letter you sent him! He took the whole fundraising thing into consideration!" Sesshomaru's brows deepened as the name was shouted through the halls. He began to stand up from his seat and every eye followed his movements. As the sudden smile came into the room Sesshomaru took action and walked around the table and towards his target. Bankotsu was talking to a friend beside him and he didn't know what hit him until a hand curled around his shirt and slammed his back into the wall.
"Holy shit. What the fuck are you doing Sesshomaru?" The guy that was once talking to Bankotsu stared at the scene wide-eyed as everyone in the classroom did the same. It was unlike Sesshomaru to attack an upper-classmen and everyone just gawked at the unsuspected fight that was going to take hold.
"In front of everyone Sesshomaru. Can't we take this little argument outside?" That same confident smile, the glint of sarcasm in his eyes, it was actions that made his knuckles white from the trembling fist he was clenching tightly.
"Tell me where she is and I'll refrain myself from killing your ass." His venomous words spat out at him as the hand that curled his shirt grew tighter.
He smirked at him and shook his head. "Now why would I do that? My cousin has no need for you in her life and my father wouldn't want you to be around her. Just give it up Sesshomaru, just give up on her and go for someone your own age. She's 15 and your near your 20's, there's no chance you'll be happy. You may love Kagome but that love will never bloom as long as I'm around."
"Than I'll fix that." His clenched fist stiffened as it retracted and took a right hook to his face. Sesshomaru didn't let him go, he pinned the bastard to the wall once again and the blood traveling from his upturned lips angered Sesshomaru and that caused another blow to the face. He didn't hold back he wanted that smile to disappear but Bankotsu just took all the hits that were coming to him. No one dared to stop him as Sesshomaru sunk his fist into Bankotsu's stomach and finally let him fall to the floor. The only thing that made Sesshomaru's glare deepen even further was the malicious laughter that escaped Bankotsu's lips.
Bankotsu was down on all fours but he remained laughing as he lifted his head to reveal a smirk. "Shit. That was a hard blow Sesshomaru. You must really love her but from what you saw from the picture, you're at a lost. I'm her cousin Sesshomaru and I have to protect her and put her in place. So you can't change anything, just face it you can't get what you want but I sure can." Bankotsu's tongue traveled slowly across his lips and the blood from the corner of his mouth was swiped away. Intrigued by the sudden anger, Bankotsu was soaking this slowly as he got to his feet. Pain struck his stomach abruptly, he leaned his back up against the wall still with that same smirk placed upon his face. He wasn't going to let this pleasure of seeing his rival falling apart slowly to bring him down. If this little -hit the punching bag -masquerade kept up any further he would have let his anger took hold of him but luckily two students were holding Sesshomaru back. Sesshomaru wanted to crush this fucker so badly that it took another guy to hold him back but as the teacher entered he got back to his senses. Sesshomaru stopped with his sudden thrashing to get to his target and looked at the teacher. The arms that held him back quickly departed away from him as he walked pass the professor and out of the door.
"I'll find you Kagome no matter what."
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
"How could you? I promised to keep up with my studies, I promised to go to every practice exam Session but you send her away. You gave Kagome to those bastards while I was gone!"
"Wataru. Calm yourself down, this girl is taking a hold of you and you don't even know it. This is for the best son." They were in the back yard and while Wataru stood angrily with his hands planted on the table, his mother just sat calmly with her cup of tea in hand.
"Like hell am I going to calm down! You bring her back or I'm not doing these fucking test. I'm not busting my ass off at school just to find out that you sent Kagome away! If she doesn't come back by tomorrow I'm cutting myself from those practice exams you got it!" the authority her son held toward her made her tick, she threw the cup and shattered it into the rock that encircled the pond beside them. She stood up abruptly meeting her eyes with her son as the deepening anger sank in her face.
"You will take those test whether you like it or not! Your family left you and I took care of you so you are in no position to back talk me! I would have left you in those dirt clothes of yours but I took you in and now you should respect me. I'm your mother and you should respect me as your mother. Now this conversation is over."
"I don't care you can't-"
"I said this conversation is over!" She sharpness in her voice cut Wataru off and there was no point in arguing. Stubborn as they both were, this wasn't going to be an argument won. He just grabbed the teapot set in the center of the table and threw it in the shallow pond. It shattered and as it did Wataru turned on his heels and marched into the house, he bee lined toward the phone set in the kitchen. No way was he going to let Bankotsu toy with Kagome and as much as he regretted punching the numbers, he held his head up high and listened to the rings.
"What the hell do you want?" The seeping anger that trailed through his voice was understandable but he just ignored it and began.
"I'll tell you the address where Kagome's staying."
"Why are you telling me this?"
"You're the only one who can save her. I had all those years to help her but I did nothing so I want you to take care of her but promise me…promise me that I'll get the chance to say I'm sorry."
There was silence for a moment and finally with a composed tone Sesshomaru replied. "Fine just give me the address and leave it all to me." After telling him the location and some general information about the people that lived in the house he hung up. Wataru couldn't help her anymore and the only thing that could save her was Sesshomaru. As much as he wanted to be her savior the only thing that he could do was send her a real person who can actually succeed to make her happy. It was a hard decision but he made it without any hesitation.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
"Sesshomaru's not coming for me." She hugged her legs up against her chest and rested her chin on her knees. Tears just trailed along her cheek, dripping on to her legs. That was all she was doing all day, crying, complaining, sobbing and remembering, it was all she did. Emotions were the only thing that seeped into her veins, her arms were trembling in sadness and she couldn't move anymore. She didn't want to look out the window just to be met with happy faces and laughter from outside. It just made everything worst.
She covered her whole body with the blue blanket and plopped down to lie on the bed. She cuddled her pillow as if it was a doll and continue to cry even more. Accused of murder and deprived from happiness, the world around her was taken away and that included Sesshomaru. It was all unfair, first of all she didn't kill her parents and second, she couldn't prove who killed her parents 9 years ago. The thought just made her blood boil, who ever killed her parents and framed her for it was going to pay with there lives. It was unfair and she was going to make sure that the person paid for what they've done to her parents and herself.
"I wish I can get out of here. Where's my damn savior?" She covered her head with the blanket in anger. She depended so much on others that she didn't know how to help herself. The door was locked, the windows were locked and there was no escape from this hell she was in.
Though as her eyes were starting to close and her muscles relaxed, she literally jumped as the sound of an unlock door was heard. Through the thick blanket she could see a dark figure entering the room. No way…Bankotsu's back already. She thought with disappointment. She just couldn't believe the monster was back and as the figure came closer she held her breath and shut her eyes tight. As if Bankotsu was going to disappear if she closed her eyes, though she tightened her shuteyes just wishing he would leave. Her prayers weren't answered as the blanket that laid upon her was thrown off of her. She was rolled up in the bed with her eyes shut tightly, hugging the pillow in her arms with dear life.
"Idiot. You look pathetic." Her eyes shot open and she quickly sat up. The first thing she realized that the person was not Bankotsu and the second was gazing up on those beautiful golden eyes. It was glaring at her but she didn't care, she lunged toward him and wrapped her arms around his waist.
"Sesshomaru. You came you-"
"You stupid girl." His arms wrapped tightly around her. The heat that wrapped around her back was comforting. He was embracing her so tightly that she winced at the constricted hold around her. He wanted to protect her, he wanted her more than ever though as a groan was herd he loosened his grip and she exhaled heavily. "That's what you get for not calling me."
"You didn't need to hug me so tightly."
"I wasn't hugging you." Sesshomaru said with a scowl.
"Yes you were. You missed me didn't you?" She teased.
"You wish. It's always questions now lets go. We don't have time for this." Sesshomaru took a hold of her wrist and pulled her off of the bed. She stumbled off of the bed and on to the floor. She was pulled out of the room so fast that she fell on her knees, tripping on her own foot.
"You're pulling me so roughly. Jezz what's your pro-"
"Shut up." He snapped as he helped her up. "That old man's down stairs. He's in the kitchen so you have to shut up." For a savior he was pretty bossy but he was right. That mean butler of theirs was always here and now a battlefield was now going to be booming with anxiety. Kagome's heart was already racing as they descended quietly onto the stairs. If it weren't for Sesshomaru's hand that held hers so tightly, she would have gotten a heart attack of fright by now. She was thinking about the worst and no positive thing ran through her mind. We are so going to get caught.
They got to the kitchen and the only way to get to the door was to get pass the opening that revealed the old man sitting at the kitchen table. The old bum was reading and his back was turned at them but as old as he was, he still had senses sharper than a cats. There backs hugged the walls as Sesshomaru took a peek in the kitchen and he whipped his head away from the opening as the man suspiciously turned. He eyed the empty area and went back to his reading but Sesshomaru tightened his hold around Kagome's hand and quietly led her pass the wide opening. The doorframe to enter the kitchen was huge but as they crept pass the opening they successfully got through without being seen. He opened the door and light beamed into her eyes. Before her eyes could adjust to light she was already pulled out of the house and onto the sidewalk.
"Jezz you want to stay there or what. I had to pry you out of that house." Sesshomaru complained.
"I was just looking at the outside."
"So what you didn't need to look outside while you were still standing in the house. You are such an idiot." Kagome shrugged and clasped his hand. She was actually hugging his arm and a smile appeared on her face. Sesshomaru didn't fail to notice the gleaming smile but he ignored it as they walked down the street.
"Thank you… Sessho-Kun."
"Didn't I tell you to stop calling me that?" Sesshomaru glared down at her but she just reacted by sticking her tongue out. She was worst than any child he had encountered but she was different. She would be sad one second then be sarcastic the other. It was annoying and bothersome but he didn't mind at all because in the end he was going to have the last laugh. (Well not really a laugh but you know what I mean.)
"Why are you smiling?" She question as he turned his attention to where he was walking. Kagome cocked an eyebrow at his smile and from the whole mood he know showed, she couldn't ignore this smile. With his conspicuous good looks and the way that smile just crossed his face so smoothly, it was to mystifying.
"You're going to pay." That was all he said through the whole walk, she felt a burst of laughter trying to escape her but she caught herself. As if he was going to regret the things he said, she was to much in a happy mood to even care what the punishment was. So what if it was a kiss that was coming to her, she sure didn't care as she tightened her hold on his arm.
"How did you find me? Did you-"
"Wataru told me where you were." His reply almost numbed her to the point where she couldn't speak. How could her most evil cousin help her and tell Sesshomaru no less. It was awkward, what were his intentions? Was he just up to something or did he really want to help her? Though what ever his intentions were it wasn't going to affect Kagome at this point.
She was too happy as Kagome finally looked upon the oh so familiar apartment and went right in. The white welcoming couch and the roomy area, the first thing she did was dove in the couch. A sigh of relief escaped her and she rested her face onto the cushions.
"This is so comfortable." She glanced up and her head immediately searched the room, as there was no sign of Sesshomaru anywhere and she grew worried. She walked to the front door and popped her head out to see if he was outside but he wasn't there. So instinctively she closed the door and walked through the corridor. She got to the end of the corridor and went into the room. It was a plain room where everything was neatly organized, with the computer that perched on the desk neatly by the window and the bed that was arranged perfectly in the corner. It was really cozy and she shut the door as her eyes roamed the room. She was a nosey person as she opened the desk drawer and shuffled through some stuff.
"How interesting." She whispered to her self as she explored. With pencils to a picture, it was totally plain but the picture in his drawer did open her eyes. It was a picture of a girl hugging Sesshomaru ever so tightly and strangely she knew the girl. She looked just like Kagome but the cocky smile she had on her face did make her eyes roll. "Kikyo." She said with a growl.
Why would a picture of that whore be in his drawer, he didn't look happy in the picture but why even keep it. Her eyes burned through the picture as she tossed it back in the drawer.
"What are you doing?" She quickly slammed the drawer and the sound filtered the room. She was caught and she distinctively knew it. He had a towel draped on his head as his damped hair dripped on his bare chest. A blush crossed her cheeks as she stared at his muscular body that was thinner that she expected it to be. Her eyes just explored his bare chest but as she noticed that Sesshomaru was cocking a brow at her she quickly turned away.
"I was doing nothing. I was just looking for you and-"
"Should I take off my pants so you can get a better look. I was wondering when you would stop staring at me."
She was flustered but a glare recovered on her face. "I wasn't looking at you. St-stupid. Why would I be staring at you and you should have told me you were washing up instead of me worrying where the hell you were." She walked toward the door that he stood in front of. As she still had her eyes glued to the floor, she waited for him to move aside so she could leave. Seconds pass and heat radiated off of her cheeks as she stood there. Couldn't he move or something, she was standing there for quite a long time. Embarrassment was sinking into her but it was worst as her down cast chin was lifted to reveal a smile on his face.
"You were worried about me?" He said as if pleased.
"Well you left so suddenly and when I saw that you were gone I thought you had gone out or something and-"
"So say it?"
"Say what?"
Sesshomaru gently grabbed her arm and pulled her to place her back onto the door. His hand was placed comfortably under her raised chin. She felt the tinge of his breath brush upon her ear as he whispered:
"Say that you love me." His lips immediately pressed upon her neck. It seemed that was his favorite place to kiss her seeing that he always laid his lips there first. The nape of her neck was being enveloped with passionate kisses and a lightening of pain shot at her neck. It wasn't uncomfortable but since his bare chest pressed upon her body, causing her body to slump up against the door, it was nerve racking. She was embarrassed as well as baffled at the actions he was presenting to her and since she wasn't use to anyone placing their lips there, she tried to push him away.
"Sesshomaru…Stop I can't…" She winced and her heart took vacancy in her throat as his tongue trailed up her chin and on to her moist lips. The feverish feeling that ran rampage in her mind made things difficult as his lips pinned her head onto the door. The momentum of shifting his head and alternating between chaste kisses made the towel on his head fall to the floor.
At this point Kagome knew her words wasn't going to get through to him so she turned her head to the side to block her lips. Sesshomaru wasn't in a rush as he gentle pressed his lips on to her neck once again.
"Are you nervous?" He inquired between kisses.
"I-I can't breath. I can't breath right and it's unnerving." She could have sworn she heard a laugh escape his mouth but it was soon shrugged away. At this point the top buttons on Kagome's blouse was undone, Sesshomaru's fingers was felt on her chest as he continued to unbutton her blouse.
"You've been studying the vocabulary words I gave you… unnerving." He said in a mocking tone.
"As if. I knew that word way before you-" Shutting her annoying mouth up with his lips, her quick anger subsided and the deep kisses grew even deeper. There tongues entwined and pleasure took a hold as there breath mingled. Kagome clung to his body as her breathing constricted, though as her mind hazed she finally felt her back lift off of the door. She was literally being dragged across the room as her numbing knees were weakening with every step.
As there lips quickly departed, Kagome fell back on the bed, quickly followed by Sesshomaru pinning her arms and laying right on top of her. Before she could reply to his sudden actions, Kagome was overtaken by Sesshomaru's lips. The hot passion that spread throughout her body, the slight fever that was felt as the kisses grew deeper with pleasure. Her body tinged at the feeling of her shirt being taken off and her skirt following suit. It happened so quickly that she couldn't process what was happening. The only thing that registered in her mind was his tongue overtaken her mouth and the breaths that escaped out into small moans.
Her bare skin that touched his own was uneasy to feel but as particles of clothing was thrown off of him and herself she could feel the vast amount of warmth that poured in every inch of her body. Her body was traced with numerous marks where Sesshomaru had kissed her and she could hear her name being whispered in her ear. The bed creaked, her arms around his back tightened as the immense wave of pleasure took hold of her. She was consumed to the limit that she became delirious. She was repeating 'Sesshomaru' over and over again that he shoved his mouth on to hers to shut her up. It wasn't annoying, it didn't bother him but he wanted to have her more than anything in this world.
"I love you Kagome." He managed to say as his fingers trailed her shoulder blade and down her damped arm. She let out a sigh and smiled weakly.
"I love you to." These words were acknowledged as she was taken in by him. He had longed for her touch and to once again see the smile on her face. He was eloped with such madness of not seeing her that he lost control. Though she wanted him as much as he wanted her and that feeling was shown. As Sesshomaru got his way, Kagome's constant pant and moans pulled him in, her anxieties melted, dissipating in the friction between their bodies.
IIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIII
"Are you sure you saw her with Sesshomaru."
"I did see her." He repeated over and over again but everyone at the table cornered their eyes at the child. "Stop looking at me like I'm a child."
"Kohaku we believe you but it's just-"
"She's here in Tokyo." Inuyasha interrupted as heads turned toward him.
"Are you sure? You said she's been gone for 9 years after she killed her own parents. Can you be curtain that she was there?" Sango questioned, glaring at the man beside her that inched his way closer and closer towards her.
"I did. I saw her at Sesshomaru's apartment and-"
"Apartment huh? Sounds like your brother finally got layed." Miroku remarked but he quickly fell off of his chair as a shoe whisked through the air and hit him right in the head. Inuyasha growled and slammed his hands on the table.
Sango just cocked a brow at the action and smiled. "Inuyasha. You said you've been friends with this girl ever since you were young but I see what's going on. You have Kikyo all over you but now you love this Kagome girl right?"
"I don't love her. I'm just worried." Inuyasha sat back into his seat and Kohaku darted his eyes at all of them.
"Hello didn't you hear what I just said. I saw that girl." Kohaku waved the picture of Kagome in the air as if frustrated and everyone sighed.
"We know you did but that was the same day Inuyasha saw her so it doesn't help." Miroku stated after recovering from the furious blow to the head.
"Who said I saw her the same day that Inuyasha did. I saw her today." Kohaku's eyes shot up as the hand that gripped the front of his shirt pulled him. Inuyasha faced the boy straight on with sullen eyes and Kohaku felt the wave of fright flush through him.
"You saw her today?" Inuyasha spat out.
"Yeah. H-He was with th-this guy that looked just like you. He had silver hair and he was walking with that girl and-" Inuyasha immediately dropped the frightened boy and everyone got up and followed Inuyasha out the door. He was literally pissed that Kohaku didn't speak out sooner. Maybe he did but he wasn't listening correctly but the only thing he had to do was get some answers.
"Inuyasha!" Sango called out and simultaneously an arm pulled him back. "What are you doing?"
"What does it look like? I'm going over there and finally get some answer." Inuyasha continued to walk but the same arm just pulled him back. Sango held his sleeve as everyone behind her stared on at the infuriated Inuyasha. "You can't stop me I'll get there no matter what you do or say."
"I know that but let us come with you. Lets take my care and lets approach the situation rationally."
"Fine." Inuyasha whipped his arm away from her grasp and entered the car. They all entered the truck with Sango driving, Inuyasha in the passenger seat and the others in the back. He crossed his arms through the whole ride, thinking deeply to what he was going to say once he got there.
I hope you all liked it. Well now Inuyasha and the gang is getting involved. Shit as if Sesshomaru and Kagome can't have the time alone lol. Well drop a review and tell me how you liked it. or I won't submit any more chapter lol.. Kidding but I do want to know how you guys liked it.
