Good morning, lovelies! Well, it's early, early morning here, lol. I hope an early drop helps bring your day joy!
There's an emptiness after Sesshoumaru leaves, but the sun is warm though the day is cold, and she walks with Inuyasha through the forest, collecting her thoughts.
"You alright?"
Kagome glances up at him, only then aware of how lost in mind she had been. "I'm fine."
"Fine?" He shakes his head, kicking at dried leaves. "Fine mean preoccupied?"
"What is that supposed to mean?"
Inuyasha gives her a flat look. "You told him yet?"
"Told him what?"
Beside her, Inuyasha stops and grabs her arm to stop her with him. "You fucking serious right now?"
She blinks.
"Gods, Kagome."
