Chapter 8
Suzuki was losing her business because Kaori spread her secret around the whole village. However, the young girl didn't care about her business. She was mostly worried about Sesshoumaru's life. Every day, she can't focus on her work because of the huge burden that Kaori put on her.
'What am I going to do? The villagers are getting restless every day. I have to hide him. But how?' Every day, Suzuki would ponder on this very thought. One day, she came up with a solution. She immediately ran to the meadow. When she got there, however, her lover wasn't there.
'Where is he,' she wondered. Couple of minutes later, she sensed him. She turned to her right, and saw him.
"Sesshoumaru," she shouted. The demon looked towards her direction, and saw her. The young witch ran up to him with a smile on her face.
"Why are you so happy today," he asked her. Normally, after that incident with Kaori, she always wore an expression of sadness and worry on her face.
"I came up with a solution that could save our relationship."
"What is it?"
"I hope that you don't mind, but I want you to live in a cave that's just outside of the village."
"Are you crazy?! The villagers could find us right away."
"Nope. I'll go and put up a magical barrier around the entrance. That way, only you and I could get through. Whenever the villagers get within 5 ft. of the barrier, they would leave by remembering that they have something important to do. That way, our secret hiding place would never be found."
"What about Kaori?"
"This is a good plan to buy us some time. If Kaori comes to this meadow, and doesn't see you for days, then he'll be convinced that it's over between us."
"I suppose that this is a good plan. Alright, I'll go with it."

Suzuki arrived at the cave, and continued helping Sesshoumaru. There wasn't much to do. A place to sleep, food, water, and light was all that it required. When both were done, the young witch began putting up the barrier. With the barrier complete, both went on with their daily lives. When night fell upon the land, the young girl would sneak out, and live with her companion for the night. The only person who knew about all of this was Amarante.

The Wiccan was on her way home, when she spotted Kaori.
"So, how's your life been," he asked.
"It's been fine. Actually, I broke up with that disgusting demon for real."
"Really?"
"Yes. If you want proof, you know where the meadow is. Go there, and wait. He's never coming back."
"So, you're going to accepted my hand in marriage?"
"You've got to be crazy. I won't, and never will, accepted your hand in marriage. Now, if you don't mind, I've got to get back to my shop." Suzuki pushed him aside, and continued on walking.
A.N.:
Well, how was it? Come on people, this is pathetic. I only got one review from one reader. Come on. I can't believe it. I got so many reviews at the beginning. What happened here people? Remember, I don't accept flames. Suggestions, and criticism I accept. I don't want any of the complaints saying that this couple sucks. I WON'T HEAR ANY OF IT!!!
