My uncle passed away so I didn't care about updating, but now I do, so enjoy! AND REVIEW!


Chapter eleven: Reconcile, II


Kagome waited in front of Kouga's building patiently. She was anticipating this meeting with him but at the same time, she'd never been so scared in her life. After a while she caught sight of him stepping from a taxi. She approached him slowly, her bangs covering her eyes.

Sesshomaru watched her walk towards him and quickly reached out to embrace her tightly. He held the emotionally fragile girl in his arms and stroked her head softly.

"Come on, Kagome lets go."


Sitting on the large bed Kagome struggled to regain her thoughts. She had everything she wanted to say perfectly thought out in her mind and now nothing was coming to her.

"Sesshomaru." His name just seemed to spill from her lips. " I just want you to know that everything I said about not loving you is a lie. Truly I do, more than anything else in the world, I was just scared. Scared that if I ever tried to build something up with you it'd only come crashing down around me." She laughed. "And look what happened, exactly what I feared."

"Kagom-"

"That's not all. That night, it was very special to me, please know that. I've done nothing but think of that night, I even kinda based my story off of it. In fact, even before it happened this may sound silly but I fantasized about it non stop. From the time we were teenagers I could only think about how much I wanted you. I guess that's why I never really wanted to be with anyone else. "

Sesshomaru began to laugh, causing Kagome to look at him quizzically.

He approached her slowly, smiling faintly. "Do you want to know the truth, Kagome?"

She nodded meekly. "From the time my father and I moved next door I had a crush on you. But as I got older it turned into more than a crush. You had become one of my obsessions though I couldn't tell you. And when I moved away for college the only person I could think about was you and how much I wanted to be with you. No one else could amount to Kagome Higurashi and no one ever well. In fact, the only thing that could make me happier then having Kagome Higurashi as a friend would be if she allowed to become someone a little more special."

She lowered her head. "Im happy you feel that way, Sesshomaru but there is something else you should know."


After hearing Kagome tell the whole story he not only felt incredibly, but guilty as well. Soon after those feelings passed he felt angry, no that word wasn't strong enough. Pissed was perhaps a better word. And his hands itched. He felt as though if he didn't tear into something soon he'd lose his mind. This predatory feeling was new and inviting at that very moment. Shaking those thoughts away he began to pace around the room, his golden eyes hard with emotion.

"I wish you would have told me sooner, then I could have killed the bastard by now."

Kagome blinked. When was the last time she'd seen him this mad? Well, other than the time one of his acquaintances failed to mention she was three months pregnant and mysteriously lost the baby.

"Kagome!" Sesshomaru yelled, catching the girls attention. "How long has he been coming around?"

"For a few months now."

"...A few months?"

She nodded.

"Something has to be done about this, Kagome. What if he tries to kill you next time?"

"..."

Feeling regret for what he just said Sesshomaru walked to Kagome and wrapped his arms around her, placing his chin on the top of her head. "I'm sorry Kagome, its just that I'm really worried about you."

"I understand, it's just that after all this I just wanna rest. Everything was going well. My book had sold out, Kikyo finally stopped being a bitch and now everything has just gone crazy. I don't know how much more of this I can take."

Sesshomaru used his curled finger to lift her head. "If you ever feel like breaking down just know that I am here for you always. For now, you get some rest. We'll go to your friend's house later to pick up your things.

Kagome nodded meekly and lied down on the bed.


Kagome was once again forced to stop her writing as someone was yet again knocking on her door. Angrily she made her way to the door and swung it open with so much force it seemed as though it would fly from the hinges."

"Hello Ms. Higurashi."

"N-Naraku. What are you doing here?"

"Well I was passing by so I decided to pay you a visit. "

"Well that's sweet but I have company and it would be rude to leave them waiting." She said smiling politely.

"You're lying."

Kagome was so shocked by his response her mouth hung open slightly. "I assure you that I'm not lying. Now if you'll excuse me." Kagome attempted to close the door only to find that his hand was keeping her from closing the door. She looked up to him to see that his eyes were narrowed dangerously.

"I don't like liars, Ms. Higurashi," he said reaching in, grabbing her wrist.

"Ow. Please let me go."

He tightened his hold on her. "Don't ever lie to me."

"Naraku, please let me go." Kagome pleaded.

"Don't fight me, Kagome." Naraku said advancing on her, pinning her to a wall. Slowly he began inching his hand up her shirt, grasping her breast in his hand roughly.

Kagome began to whimper loudly before pushing him away. "Get the fuck off ME!"

"Kagome, wake up." Sesshomaru said shaking her roughly.

Kagome rose from the bed, tears falling from her eyes. Brushing them away she grabbed onto Sesshomaru only to squeeze him tightly.

"Kagome, today we're going to take care of this." His tone was dark and low.


Cliffie! Well, at lease it was kinda long. - -slinks behind bulletproof glass- Love you all.
