Disclaimer: I don't own many of the people in this fic. I own Hardy (Me)
and the story line. R/R. Arigato.
Forceofdarkness087: Thanks for the review Aaron. Yes, InuYasha OOC-ness, Sesshy OOC-ness. Inu warned me about Miroku.. Cuz I wanted him to. Plus he was the one who was closer to me in the fic. As for, Quoting: "WHERE ARE SANGO, SHIPPO, MYOGA, AND KILALA?!?!?!?" Shippo is in the next chapter, and I didn't feel like putting the others in here. I'm gonna make it BEFORE they meet Sango or and it's spelled Kirara, NOT Kilala, it just sounds like that. Myoga might, MIGHT pop up at random points in the story so don't worry.
Pom-Pom- Thank you again for your faithful reviews. I'm glad you like my story, this I think is my best one. Thank you for the suggestion of publishing this into a book, I might think of it. But this would have to be just for friends and close people cause it hold characters from different animes, And already published anime characters + A new published book with them in it = Sue me please! ^__________^
**************************************************************************** *********
Sunlight shimmered through the large bay window, slowly waking Hardy from the depths of sleep. Her mind fuzzy from slumber tried to gather the events from the night before. She vaguely remembered coming to Sesshoumaru's castle and putting on an over-sized kimono top. She used that to suffice for a nightshirt.
Hardy rolled over slowly taking in the lavender scent drifting through the air. 'It's so soft.' She thought pulling the fluffy down comforter to her chin. She didn't want to wake, but still she slowly opened her eyes. A smile danced across her face as she met the liquid golden orbs of Sesshoumaru. She yawned rubbing her eyes, still blurred from sleep. Sesshoumaru's hand lifted and he tangled his claws in Hardy's hair. Hardy smiled wider and closed her eyes. She laughed to herself as she thought of how his claws looked as though they were carved from the purest jade, and his body from the purest marble. Perfectly sculpted. She felt his claws exit her hair and slowly trace the outlines of her markings. They were mirror to his.
"Good morning Sesshoumaru." Hardy yawned slowly getting herself into a sitting position. Sesshoumaru sat up scooting next to her. "Ohayoo Hardy." Hardy put her gaze to the floor narrowing her eyes. His voice was tinged with a cold hatred. It seeped into her skin, making her shiver. 'So, he hasn't changed.' She thought sadly. Hardy swung her legs over the side of the bed, Sesshoumaru followed suit. He slowly stood up. Hardy looked up at him and smiled. He wore only his kimono bottoms. His body was the only thing that had changed since she was away. Sesshoumaru's muscles trembled under Hardy's gaze.
She smirked and stood up slowly bringing feeling back to her numb legs. She took a step and tripped. Sesshoumaru grabbed her with the speed of lightning and set her up straight. "Guess my legs aren't ready to walk yet." Hardy said laughing. Sesshoumaru looked down at Hardy his face softening. Only two people had ever warmed his inside like this.. Rin. and Hardy. Then again, no one ever got close enough to him to warm his insides.
He watched Hardy as she stretched her legs, and walked around the room looking at everything in the massive bedroom. Hardy walked up to the drapes on the window. She realized she was in his quarters when she grasped the viciously sliced drapes in her hand. Hardy frowned. 'He's very angry.. At what I don't know.' She thought. Hardy turned to Sesshoumaru. "Sesshoumaru? D o you have a bath I could use?" Sesshoumaru nodded and showed her out the door.
He led her down the hallway and opened an ornate stained glass door. Hardy was amazed at the intricate details shown. Sesshoumaru's father was portrayed, rearing on his hind legs. Next to him, 2 swords sat. Hardy knew the story of the swords well. The Tetsusaiga, forged from his fathers fang and a killing machine; and the Tensaiga, with the power to heal, and bring back to life. Hardy turned away from the door and looked at the baths before her.
It had 4 large hot springs, each connected by small wooden bridges decorated with any flower you could think of. There was a large island in the middle of the hot springs, which held large fluffy towels. Hardy smiled. This is what she had been waiting for, for so long, a bath in a hot spring. It had been a long time since she had been able to relax her muscles.
Hardy slowly slipped out of the nightshirt, and eased her aching muscles in the first spring. 'Why would Sesshoumaru have flowers in his hot springs?' Hardy questioned herself. She leaned her head back. She had forgotten Sesshoumaru was still in the room. Hardy giggled seeing a hint of blush gracing his pale cheeks. She figured he had seen her as she entered the springs. Hardy arched her eyebrow in question. "Well?" Sesshoumaru's face twisted in confusion. "Are you going to come in, or just stand there staring?"
Sesshoumaru nodded, his cheeks flushing a deep red. Slowly he removed his kimono bottoms. Hardy turned her head like she hadn't seen anything. She smiled blushing, she had seen more than Sesshoumaru knew. Sesshoumaru slid in next to her and closed his eyes. His tense muscles relaxed. Hardy laughed and looked at Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru slid one eye open and looked at Hardy. "What?" He questioned. Hardy giggled harder. "Why do you have flowers in YOUR hot springs?" Sesshoumaru closed his eye again. "Those are for Rin. She uses this spring to." Hardy kept giggling. "Ok.."
She slowly pushed off the side of the spring and practiced the swim stokes she had learned in swim team. She felt the eyes of Sesshoumaru on her back. Sesshoumaru was indeed watching the young Youkai as she swam. 'She developed rather nicely.' He thought to himself. Sesshoumaru let a small grin cross his face. He slowly stood and walked over to the little island, grabbing a fluffy yellow towel and wrapping it around his waist. He slowly walked over to his clothes and started to dress. He finished tying his sash and turned around realizing that Hardy had gotten out of the springs and was wrapped in a fluffy dark blue towel.
Sesshoumaru realized he had to provide a kimono for her. He walked over to a hidden cabinet in the wall, opening it. He searched around and picked a navy kimono. It was adorned with a sapphire sash and identical colored flowers. He handed it to her and Hardy gratefully accepted. She let the towel fall to the floor and slipped into the kimono. The silk seemed to flow with her pale skin as it melded to her every curve. She slowly tied the sash and looked at herself. She loved it! No kimono had ever fit her this well before. Sesshoumaru was mad; his cheeks were warm. Again he was blushing. The kimono was tight on her body and reached to the middle of her thighs.
Hardy knew she was under Sesshoumaru's gaze and looked up. She slowly walked over to Sesshoumaru, wrapping her arms around his waist. She sighed leaning her head into Sesshoumaru's chest. Sesshoumaru smiled laughing slightly. Hardy looked up her eyes sparkling. "What's so funny?" She questioned. Sesshoumaru looked down at her replying. "It's just that... You put your total trust in me while you haven't seen me for so long. I could kill you at anytime I wanted." Hardy smiled. "I know you wouldn't kill me, plus.. Well you trust the one you love don't you?" Sesshoumaru's eyes went wide.
'......love?'
A/N: Well that's it for now. This story isn't easy let me tell you. I have no clue where this is going, it's kind of writing itself right now. Well r/r thank you!
