Hello my darlings! It's been quite awhile, I know. However, here I am once again! I haven't abandoned my other stories, not by a long shot. But, this has been burning my skull for the longest so I had to get it out.
I lay no claims to InuYasha, nor do I profit from the anime, manga, etc...
I hope you enjoy it!
My Sunshine
NikkiS71
She stands looking out the floor to ceiling window of the luxurious bedroom over looking the sea. The coverlet that had long since fallen to the floor, hiding her nudity, as she watches as the waves crash gently upon the shore below. All the while singing a bit off key...
"You are my sunshine,
my only sunshine.
You make me happy,
when skies are gray.
You'll never know dear,
how much I love you.
Please don't take my sunshine away.
The other night dear,
while I lay sleeping.
I dreamed I held you in my arms.
But when I woke, dear.
I was mistaken,
and I hung my head and cried!"
As she ends her song, she realizes she is no longer alone. The corners of her bow-like mouth lifts in to a tiny smile. Two strong arms wrap around her, as she melts into a comforting embrace. He pulls her tightly against the hard wall of his chest. Closing her eyes, she signs in contentment listening to the might of the ocean below, and the rhythmic beat of the heart near her ears. "Did I wake you?" She asks, even though she knows full well that she didn't. She knew he was awake when she left his bed.
Tucking his nose into the crook of her neck, he breaths in her scent. His hands slowly tracing her slight frame over the thin silk cover. "No, my dear. I was merely listening to you singing that odd little song of yours. Wondering what is was that has dragged you from my side, in the middle of the night?" His lips ghosting a path up the side of her neck to the shell of her dainty elfin ear, to finally rest a soft kiss at her temple, "is something troubling you, little one?"
She smiles softly shaking her head. "No, nothing really. I was just thinking how perfect this has all been." She says, tilting her head to the side granting him full access. "And, how short it is," she sighed sadly. Watching the roll of the midnight surf, as it moved in and off the shore below. "In the morning our time will be done. You will go home to your life, and I to mine." Turning in his arms, she runs her small hands over his pale broad chest. Her cool fingers light brushing against the contours of his well muscled torso. "I will never, ever forget these past two weeks. Or you." Peeking up at him shyly through her dark bangs, she sighs fondly. "Thank you for spending these moments with me." She smiles, lifting her hand up to brush the silky silver bangs from his forehead.
Grabbing her hand in his, he brings her fingers to his lips kissing every digit, "nor will I, Sara. Nor will I." He allows her to pull her hand free, as she wraps her arms around his neck. Pulling him in for a long passionate kiss. Lifting her up in his arms, she wraps her legs around his waist as he carries her back to his bed. Both knowing that when the morning comes, they may never cross paths again. It would be simply impossible, for they knew that neither was the one they were destined for. Their encounter was just what it was. A moment in time. But, until the sun rose in the sky, the moment was theirs.
