Sesshoumaru found her family noisy, but he liked them.

He thought her cooking was better than her math grade, and Kagome was okay with that.

He stated that he found her especially beautiful tonight.

Wait.

What?

Kagome turned to gaze at him with cautious eyes and she saw the emotion in his, soften in almost an adoring manner before leaning down and kissing her lips chastely.

Pulling back he admired her shock.

"However, you still have a couple of weeks worth of detention that you have yet to serve with me."

She flushed, "I didn't do anything!"

He smiled cleverly, "Exactly."

"What about my detention with Inuyasha?"

Sesshoumaru made a face that Kagome couldn't read and pulled her to him with his hands still wet with the dish water. Kagome yelped at the feel of her flesh against the wet fabric of the shirt.

"His detentions are not as important as mine."

"In other words?

"Only I can give you detentions."
