He was mad at her. Ever since she had laughed about her hiccups, he had refused to look at her.
Refused to the point that he sat at the other side of the clearing they had stopped at, and had refused to turn his head her way.
She repressed the urge to roll her eyes. Sensitive dog demons.
She stood from her place, and made the walk over to him and knelt next to his outstretched leg. His eyes still not turning towards her.
"Sesshoumaru, I apologize for laughing earlier. It was rude given your obvious concern, and I apologize for the offense."
He huffed, obviously annoyed, but she saw his eyes cut towards her.
"Hn."
Suddenly she was pulled forward with a hand on her arm, and hand around her waist. She was knelt over the top of him, nearly nose to nose. If he released his hold, she would be sprawled on top of him!
She felt the familiar pulling sensation she had felt last night when his heavy lidded eyes met her wide ones.
"I require compensation."
"Compensation?"
"Indeed."
His head leaned forward and brushed along her cheek.
"You will think of a way to make up your earlier folly."
"And what could a little human miko offer the Western Lord."
He pulled back, and she felt her heart jump at the sight of his mouth pulled back in a smirk.
"Many things, little miko. Many, many things."
