A/N: Okay, I'm really sorry I'm late, but I was at my aunt's house coz my
dad don't trust me in the house by myself for long. And he said "You need
some frickin sunshine." I couldn't use the computer because she doesn't
know how to work one. Anyway, I decided that since I have a total of 3
reviews for my other story, I'll keep it up. Here's the chapter!
~ * ~ Chapter Fifteen: Reunion ~ * ~
Sesshoumaru and Kagome just arrived at the well after they had their alone time. They decided to wash each other's scents off. But one thing led to another and they finally agreed to wash at the other ends. Sesshoumaru told her that even though she had definitely gotten faster, it would be better if she got a ride from him.
She liked getting rides from him instead of Inuyasha. Because he would wrap his tail ::giggle:: around her. She didn't look at his tail as something very creepy; instead, she looked at it like the perfect substitute for Inuyasha's doggy ears. Kagome wasn't mad at Inuyasha anymore; in fact, she was glad he chose Kikyou. Because then, maybe she wouldn't have seen firsthand, of how nice a guy Sesshoumaru really was.
'After all, she was the first.' She still had feelings for him, of course, but they weren't as strong now like they were back then. Kagome doubted that her life with Inuyasha's insults would be as happy as hers with Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru noticed her behavior and became curious. "What are you thinking about?" Kagome sighed and snuggled closer to him. "Just thinking about Inuyasha and how I'm glad that he chose Kikyou." Sesshoumaru knew she was telling the truth.
'But I don't know if she loves me back. Doesn't matter, she's my mate, and I'll be damned if she goes back to that whelp.' They had landed by the river near the well, "Oh? And why is that?" He had an idea of what she was going to say, but he wanted to hear it, come out of her mouth.
"Because I wouldn't have met you and find out how much of a softy you really are. And because I couldn't be as happy as I am now." Sesshoumaru gave her a smile and set her down, unwrapping his tail. "Well, it wasn't what I wanted to hear, but it was close."
They walked in silence to the Bone Eater's well.
"I guess I'll wait outside for you."
Kagome thought about that. "No, why don't you see if you can go through the well with me?" Sesshoumaru nodded his head curtly. They jumped in the well holding hands.
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha and the gang came just in time to see Sesshoumaru's head go down the well. "What the hell?" Inuyasha followed them to Kagome time. (A/N: That rhymes!)
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Inuyasha was spying on Sesshoumaru and Kagome. They were holding hands.
'That goddamn girl. And that bastard is holding MY Kagome's hand.'
(A/N: typical of him)
(T/N: couldn't agree more.)
He was about to rush up to Kagome when her mother dashed out of the house crying out Kagome's name. Her mother's momentum almost knocked Sesshoumaru over .The woman, Kagome's mother, was wailing in his ears. She only noticed Sesshoumaru after 5 minutes of saying how worried she was.
"I apologize for my rudeness. I just haven't seen my baby in ::hick:: such a ::hick:: long time. I didn't get to see you grow up." Sesshoumaru figured that this was Kagome's mother, and she had reason for being upset, but come on!
"Mom, I'm ok. Where's Grandpa and Souta?"
Her mother looked up, "Oh my, they're at your cousins house. We needed someone here just in case you came back. Where's Inuyasha?" Sesshoumaru just shook his head, "Well, Kagome, mister, come inside and tell me all about it. I hope you can stay for a couple of days. I'm sure Souta would be happy to see you."
Kagome nodded her head and linked fingers with Sesshoumaru's then walked toward the house. Kagome's mother noticed it, but she didn't say anything. Yet, that's when Inuyasha decided to leave them alone, because he knew after Kagome finished telling the story, he wouldn't be welcomed anymore,
'Not that I care.'
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~
Kagome told her mother the whole story. The WHOLE story. "But please mom, don't hate him, I don't," she paused before continuing. "Is he still welcomed here?" Kagome's mom was silent for a moment before she answered, "If you were strong enough to forgive him, then I don't see any harm. Just don't tell Souta or Grandpa."
Sesshoumaru couldn't help but smile. "How long are we staying here. Because I don't trust Jakken with Rin and Shippo." Kagome's mother's head shot up at the name of 'Rin'. She recognized Shippo, but not this Rin.
"You already have children? Why didn't you bring her?" Kagome almost died of embarrassment. Luckily, Sesshoumaru saved her. "No, she is a human child I am taking care of."
Kagome's mom almost melted in the spot, "A demon taking care of a human! How kawaii and honorable. Kind of like a Tenshi from Tenchi!"
(A/N: I know tenchi means heaven and earth, but I couldn't remember the word for heaven.)
Sesshoumaru turned crimson red, almost the same color as the pants on Kagome's miko garb (yes, Kagome is a full, strong, beautiful miko now).
Kagome's mother left the dining room to go cook. They had been talking for hours. Mostly explaining things to Sesshoumaru about their time. Kagome leaped onto Sesshoumaru's lap, and in minutes, she fell asleep. 'This woman can sleep!' He got up, wrapping her legs around his back and supported her by holding his left arm under her bottom, and caressing her back with her head on his shoulder.
(A/N: I know in the manga, he lost his left arm, and in the anime he lost his right arm, but lets pretend he didn't get it hacked off!)
He was walking through the room, humming a lullaby, and looking at Kagome's family pictures. There was one he as really interested in:
Kagome was fifteen years old, and she had a sky blue kimono on. The kimono was obviously made of silk and it had sakura and butterfly patterns on it. She was standing under a sakura tree near a small wooden bridge. The bridge was over a small river. She was holding out a finger that had a white bird on it, and the other hand was holding onto a parasol. The picture was clearly a posed one, but Kagome made it look so natural.
Sesshoumaru couldn't take his eyes off that picture. It was like it had him under a spell. Even though the picture was taken back when cute and not fully developed, it had beauties of its own.
"It's a wonderful picture, isn't it?"
Sesshoumaru almost dropped Kagome, and berated himself for not sensing the mother before. "Hai."
An awkward silence fell between them. "You didn't trick Kagome into falling in love with you? No spells or anything?" She mother was very curious.
"No, but I did use Inuyasha's mistake to my advantage. Gomen nasai."
Kagome's mother nodded, "You don't have to say sorry. You won Kagome's love fair and square."
Sesshoumaru looked a bit uncertain at the mention of the word 'love', "Love me?"
Kagome's mother was staring at him intently now; she walked up to him and took his chin, "How could you think she doesn't love you? How could you think that? Look. Look at her sleeping in your arms like a baby. Look back at the way she took your hand and kept it there. She loves you, definitely. Now take her to her room, she slumping."
She rubbed Sesshoumaru's cheek and kissed Kagome on the forehead and left. He looked at he retreating form of the all-knowing mother.
'She loves me, huh? But I want to hear her say it.' Sesshoumaru sighed and went up the stairs, trying to stiff out Kagome's room.
The whole house smelled of her, but not much. 'Probably because of her absence.' He opened the room that smelled like her scent like her the most and walked in. When he reached the bed, his muscles were relaxed. 'It's because of her scent, it make me more at ease. Homey kind of.' After looking through her dressers, he finally found the 'pajamas' she wore to bed one time. 'She sure does like the color blue.'
He took her miko clothing off and placed it on a chair. Placing her on the bed, he went back to the drawers and took a bra out. They looked a bit too small for her, so he decided to not put it on. He quickly dressed her in the pajamas just in case her mother was spying. He also took off his armor and the outer skins of his kimono and climbed into the bed with her. Wrapping his arms around her protectively.
They were about to leave and Kagome was saying goodbye to her family. Her grandfather turned out to be quite a character around Sesshoumaru. Well, once you got past the whole 'demon alert' thing. All they did at breakfast was eat, just a little, and tell stories about legends and myths. It turned out that grandfather's stories weren't all lies, but most of them rang true in feudal Japan.
"See, you should take the advice from this young ma-err Lord. Nevermind. He knows his stuff." Everyone rolled his or her eyes at the comment.
Kagome promised she would visit them as much as possible. Earlier that morning she had decided that she would stay with Sesshoumaru in his time.
'I was gone for a long time. I don't think I can make up that much homework!'
Her family gathered around and gave her a big hug. Sesshoumaru was surprised when they gave him an extra hearty hug. Kagome looked back once before taking Sesshoumaru's in hers and jumping through the well. The two love birds were smug with each other until Sesshoumaru sniffed the air.
"I guess you are a whore after all."
T/N: Bwa ha ha ha bet you cant guess who it is =0 oooo scary I wonder who it can be. but you'll just have to wait until next times great chapter. Until then Sayonara ^_^ v.
A/N: You know what Roku-chan? I think you had way--- too many Air Heads. Just calm down, everything will be alright. Your doctor friends will come with your special jacket any minute now.
Nope, I'm just messing with ya!
