I've never been perfect, but neither have you.

"To what do I owe this displeasure half breed" Sesshomaru took his hands off Kagome, but he didn't move away from her.

"You know why I am her asshole, did you really think I was just going to leave her here with you."

"That Inuyasha is not up to you" He then looked around "Is my ward with you?"

"No, I ain't your babysitter Sesshomaru."

"Inuyasha" Kagome scolded him,

"Don't you Inuyasha me, what the hell Kagome, tsk with my brother really?"

"Wait, what?" She was confused,

"So I choose Kikyo, and you go throwing yourself at him?"

Kagome's jaw hit the floor she could not believe him.

"K and what's with you? Weren't you the one who said you didn't bare any weakness to her kind?"

Sesshomaru knew his brother was going to be a complete fool, but he was crossing the line. Sesshomaru opened his mouth, but Kagome spoke before him "My kind?" She asked,

"Yeah human, he hated them so imagine my shock when I walk in and find him all over you."

Kagome could not wrap her head around this, so she laughed and then laughed a little more.

"Miko"

She stopped laughing and glared daggers at Inuyasha "First off who do you think you are! Second, ever heard of knocking and-"

"What the hell is that" Inuyasha stopped her mid-rant.

"What?" She asked,

Inuyasha eyes glided to Sesshomaru "I'm going to fucking kill you."

Sesshomaru rose an elegant eyebrow,

"You fucking marked her!?"

"My doing so would not warrant anything form you halfbreed she does not belong to you."

Inuyasha sputtered "Kagome, say something!"

She honestly didn't know what to say. She was hurt, hurt that he left, hurt that he treated her like crap and hurt that he just came in and acted like she belonged to no one but him. She didn't belong to him; she didn't belong to anyone. She shook her head "I don't have to say anything" She said softly "You already made of your mind about all this." The fact was, he had not asked a damn thing he just assumed. At first, she was going to snap at Sesshomaru for not being clear, but now she understood. He was teaching Inuyasha and lesson and not indulging his young brother.

"Did you hit your head or something?"

"No!" She snapped,

"He is the fucking enemy!"

"Kikyo is my enemy!" Hell Kikyo had tried to kill her once too.

"That's different, and you know it!"

"How!?" She yelled,

Inuyasha crossed his arms and looked away "At least she didn't go to the enemy when I stood by your side and not hers."

That wasn't fair.

"Enough half breed."

"Fuck you; you twisted jerk!"

Sesshomaru moved, but Kagome grabbed his clothing, but her eyes were glued to Inuyasha "How can you say anything to either of us." She said calmly.

"What?" Inuyasha's eyes got wide,

"You have no right, NO RIGHT!" Tears gathered in her eyes "He isn't perfect."

Sesshomaru looked at her, and she met his eyes for a moment "You're not" Then she looked back at Inuyasha "I am not perfect."

"K I can see that," He said calmly and looked away,

"But neither are you."

He looked back at her "Just go Inuyasha."

He unfolded his arms "Kagome" She looked away from him and willed herself not to let tears fall.

"I came back to get you, just, just come on."

"I'm, I'm not coming back with you."

"Kagome look, I'm sorry-

Sesshomaru blocked him "You have said enough."

Inuyasha growled "Look; she may not be my mate-

"No, she isn't you chose the dead"

"That ain't fair!" He yelled,

"And she chooses to stay with me."

Inuyasha made a fist; he hated the way that sounded. Sesshomaru turned his back to his brother and looked down at Kagome; she had let go of him.

"Just tell me, did you really mark her."

Sesshomaru reached out and moved Kagome's hair back and ran his thumb back over her neck. She closed her eyes "Sesshomaru, stop" My her words held no real authority, she hardly whispered them. He looked back at his brother "You may send the slayer and monk."

He then dropped his hand from Kagome and waited. Neither of them moved until Inuyasha was gone. Kagome opened her eyes and lifted her hand to her neck; it really did hurt.

"Does it hurt?"

She looked at him "Does what hurt?" She asked numbly,

"Hn"

He moved her hand away "It will bruise, do not touch it."

"Hai"

He turned to the door "By the way Miko, I am perfect."

Kagome growled as he walked out the door then she smiled softly. Never in her wildest dreams.
