Chapter 54: Apologize


Kagome stayed staring you her window for a long time. When she finally did turn her gaze from the window Sesshoumaru was gone, she hadn't even heard him leave. She settled herself into her chaise longe chair and tried to read, but she couldn't focus on the book. Giving up after reading the same line for the 10th time, she went to find Sesshoumaru, his wounds needed tending to.

He was seated on the floor in her living room, the only light came from the moon through the open window. She could hear the crickets chirping their song and feel the slight breeze on her heated skin as she approached Sesshoumaru.

"Sorry about being angry. It's not your fault." Kagome said, kneeling next to him. "I shouldn't have taken my frustrations out on you. I apologize for that. In all honesty, I am not even sure why I was so mad to begin with. If you plan to stay here for an extended period of time, I will try to do better."

Sesshoumaru turned and looked at her, moonlight shadowed his face, but Kagome could clearly see his piercing amber eyes watching her.
