I'm not looking for somebody with some superhuman gifts.
Kagome may have not wanted to choose, but it did not stop her suitors from coming. She wasn't impressed. Sesshomaru watched as she sat unmoved by her many suitors.
"This is pathetic," Inuyasha stated,
Sesshomaru glance at him,
"I must agree," Miroku added,
"They are totally blind," Sango added,
"To?" Sesshomaru asked which made them all look at him.
"God Sesshomaru you of all people should know this," Inuyasha pointed "She isn't impressed by this!"
"She is not impressed by much id say," Kouga pouted "Show of strength, sweet words, none of that stuff."
"Coming from you wolf boy," Inuyasha snapped with a side grin.
"She wasn't totally impressed with you either dog boy!" Kouga retorted first in the air.
An argument ensued, and Sesshomaru took that time to leave them. He could only handle them in small doses.
He walked clear across the dojo and up to Kagome "Portal?" He said.
"Yes please,"
Under the watchful eye of Miroku, the Demon Lord and Miko vanished, and no one even noticed but him. Kagome dropped her bow and sealed the room "That was exhausting."
"It is the male's job to show he can defend his woman, protect her and their young,"
Kagome blushed "You dont see Miroku doing all that,"
"He has already bedded his wife and impregnate her."
Kagome blushed more "Hey virgin ears here!"
"Indeed," He said slowly,
"They all know that dont they?"
"Yes,"
She groaned, "Can you make them stop?"
"You wish for me too?"
"Sesshomaru this may come to you as a shock but I dont care about demonic superpower, I don't need a show of unnatural ability." She just wanted something like this.
Conversation, understanding, closeness. Still and quiet, alone.
"You will if someone comes to kill you."
"Are you saying I can't hold my own?"
"When you are with child, you will not be able to hold your own, that is your mates job."
"I'm not looking for a mate."
"Yet, what if he finds you?"
It made her heart stop, and her lip parted "Then I would just know."
"And how would you know if he does not make himself known if he does not seek you?"
Kagome sat down and tossed a book at Sesshomaru "Sometimes you dont know, sometimes it just hits you, you just fall."
He looked at the book then back at her,
"I am not vain."
"I just know what I want, just like I think you know what you want,"
He did,
"You can explain your wants; I can't explain mine." She sighed heavy.
He set the book down "Then just dismiss them,"
"I have been, they keep coming."
He walked closer to her, "You need another break?"
"I'm not that weak,"
But she did feel her power draining "I'll be glad when this moon phase is over,"
Suddenly they felt someone near, and Kagome jumped up and without thinking his hand went around her waist and his finger went to his lips. They heard a sound, but Kagome knew better than to alter her power, they would feel it. The feeling went away after a moment "They can't hear us, you know," She looked up at him.
He slowly let her go,
"Do you think someone knows?"
He walked to the wall but didn't lower the shield. "She felt me; my power ended here."
"She?"
"It was female,"
"You can feel that?"
"My power," He teased,
"Oh I'm so impressed," She said fakely,
"You should be," He prompted,
"If I judge a man by his power, you would win."
He slowly looked at her, and she blinked at him, "What?"
He wondered if she knew what she was saying. It was flattering, not that he had ay doubts.
"We need another entrance," He told her.
"We do?"
"Hn, we both go cold in this room."
"Oh, right, we dont want to start a rumor."
"We want to keep our secret, do we not?"
She blushed "Right,"
He walked to the other wall and moved around a bit and then waved his hand and stepped out, she followed.
"Where are we?"
"My bedroom,"
Kagome quickly backed out and sealed the portal behind her. She spent the night hidden away, her power drained, but she knew nothing could get to her. First, they had to get past her barrier, then they would have to get past him, and no one was getting by him.
No one could get passed Sesshomaru.
