Summary: A wonderful surprise and a crying miko?

Carefully Kagome set one foot before the other. Her small hand rested in a much larger, clawed one. She slipped a bit but the hand steadied her. She took a few more steps and felt how the ground beneath her feet changed.

They came to a halt and the hand let go of hers. The silk band that covered her eyes was carefully removed and the miko blinked a few times. When her gaze cleared, her eyes grew round with surprise. There, in front of her, was a large clearing and in the middle of it stood the most beautiful Christmas tree she had ever seen.

She did not notice that tears were rolling down her cheeks until a claw caught one of them and lifted it in front of golden eyes. A slight frown marred his normally emotionless features.

"Why are you crying, miko?" the Western Lord asked. "This one assumed you would be happy with his little surprise?"

"Oh, but I am," Kagome looked up at him, a blinding smile on her tear-streaked face.

"You cry because you are happy?" the inu clarified and she nodded. "I admit, you confuse me, but also you make me more and more...curious...Kagome." The male reached up and brushed an ebony lock behind those round ears and the young woman could not stop the deep blush that appeared on her cheeks.

"What do you mean?" she asked carefully.

"It seems, my little miko," he said, playing with her locks and then carefully taking her left hand, "that I have a weak spot for yet another human. Merry Christmas, Kagome!" Something was slipped over her middle finger. Mesmerised with the sudden warmth in his eyes, the miko could not look away.

"Merry Christmas, Sesshōmaru," she whispered, allowing him to keep her hand in his.

The moon appeared behind some clouds and its light played over a slender, silver ring made of hair, the symbol of an inu-yōkai's choice.
