She gathered the cloths and took them into her bathroom and filled a large bucket full of water and placed all the cloths in it. As she let them sit and let the dirt and mud wash out, she sat and thought of a plan for her revenge on Inuyasha. But just then there came a knock on her door.
.....................................................................................................................
Kagome stood up and walked over to the door. She opened it to come face to face with Sesshoumaru. "Yes?" she asked stepping back so he could enter the room. "Shippo and Rin requested that you join them for dinner. I tried to tell them you had a lot on your mind but they refuse to eat until your down there." Sesshoumaru spoke as he stepped into the room a ways. He looked around the room; it smelled of flowers and springtime.
Kagome nodded as she stepped past him and to the side of her bed picking up a pair of chopstick like things. She twisted her hair up into a tight bun and placed the chopstick into the bun, holding it together. She turned around with a smile upon her face and 2 small pieces of hair hanging on each side of her face. "Well, I guess I'll have to join you three for dinner, now wont I. We can't have Shippo and Rin going to bed with growling stomachs can we?" she said as she walked over to Sesshoumaru and standing beside him as they faced different directions.
Sesshoumaru nodded as he spun around on his heels and started to walk toward the door. He held the door open as Kagome passed. She nodded a thank you and went to the stairs and waited for him.
As they walked down the stairs, Kagome could feel him staring at her. 'Why is he being so nice? Is it because I'm a demon like him...' Kagome thought to herself as she and Sesshoumaru glided silently down the long staircase. She finally turned to him staring back. He stopped. "What?" he asked a bit confused. Kagome stopped on the stair just below the one he stopped on. "Nothing, I was wondering..." "Yes?" "Why are you so nice and why do you respect me so much?" "That is my own business." And that was all he said as he started to walk down the stairs again. "Well, I think I have a right to know as it has to do with me does it not?" she asked as she ran forward to catch up with him. "Yes, but I don't think your ready to know."
They had reached the bottom of the stairs. He stopped. "I know you're not ready to know and I'm not readying to tell you. Now please, don't ask me again." He was now staring in to her dark midnight blue eyes. She was staring right back. She bit her bottom lip but nodded. It drove her crazy because she wanted to know so badly but he had asked nicely for her to not ask and she wouldn't.
They entered the dinning room, Kagome smiling like always and Sesshoumaru with his expressionless mask on again. He sat down in his set as Kagome sat in hers. "I have gotten Lady Kagome, now please eat Rin and Shippo." Shippo nodded and so did Rin before they dug into the food on their plates. Kagome eat a little, she wasn't hungry lately, she didn't know if it was natural now that she was a demon or if she was to depressed.
Sesshoumaru ate his dinner, it was more then he had ate the other night but still not as much as Shippo and Rin ate. He noticed Kagome hadn't really ate anything since she had arrived to his palace and he, for some odd reason, began to worry for her health.
"Lady Kagome, may I speak with you after dinner in the library?" He asked, breaking the silence between the four of them. Kagome nodded, "Yes."
Dinner seemed to go and come. Kagome took Shippo and Rin up to their rooms for bed. A servant took Rin so Kagome could put Shippo to sleep. She put Shippo to bed, he had fallen a sleep while on the way to room. She smiled and kissed him lightly on the forehead. "Night son." She said before closing the door to his bedroom.
As she walked down the hall toward the long staircase, on her way to the library, she heard a faint whimper from a near by room. It was Rin's room. She opened to door to room to find Rin a sleep but kicking and crying out loud in her sleep as if something was attacking her. Kagome ran in and picked up Rin holding her tightly in her arms to keep her from kicking and crying. Tears fell down her face, hers and Rin's. She could tell Rin was dreaming but it hurt her to see the child cry so much. Rin finally woke up and wrapped her arms around Kagome's neck and whispered. "Mommy." Kagome was shocked at first but let is slide by. "Its me Rin. Kagome. Its ok. Don't worry it was only a dream."
She placed Rin back on the bed as she sat on the edge of it. She placed the covers over Rin and tucked her in. "Kagome, can I call you mommy. Please?" Rin asked as she laid her head down on the pillow. "Yes, if you promise to dream happy things and forget the bad things." Rin nodded and her eyes shut slowly as she whispered. "Night Mommy. Thank you." Kagome couldn't help but be happy for Rin calling her Mom. "Your Welcome Sweetheart." Kagome said as she leaned forward and kissed Rin on the forehead.
She made her way down the stairs toward the library. She was at the end of the stairs when Sesshoumaru sped over and stood in front of her. "Where have you been?" He asked as he and Kagome started to walk toward the doors that lead out to the garden. "I was putting Shippo to bed and when I was on my way down here Rin had a bad dream so I went to check on her. I'm sorry." Sesshoumaru shook his head. "No need to be sorry. You were merely being a good mother is all." He said, a bit shocked at his own words, he let silence take over for a while.
He pulled open the doors to the garden and walked out, Kagome right behind him. They walked for what seemed 30 or 40 minutes, enjoying the night sky. Finally Sesshoumaru stopped and sat on the top of a hill were you could see the night sky for miles and miles. Kagome sat down as she looked up at the sky. "So, What did you want to talk about Sesshoumaru-sama?" She asked as she leaned back on her hands staring at the sky.
Sesshoumaru sat with one leg laid out and the other one with its knee bent and his arm resting on it. He sighed as he looked up at the night sky as well. "Why don't you eat? Why did you say you had things to do and not come to dinner at first?" Kagome sighed. She looked at Sesshoumaru, "I just have lost my want to eat something. I don't know why but I have. And I just wanted sometime to myself so I could think things over, try to forget that stupid hanyou. I also miss my friends, Sango... Miroku, they were my best friends and I miss them a bit."
Sesshoumaru tilted his head down a bit closing his eyes with a light sigh escaping from behind his lips. "Well if you don't eat your health will be in great danger and I can't have that happen now can I? No. Forget Inuyasha, and I will make sure you see you friends once this is all over. Don't worry. Just please eat, your staring to look a bit paler." Sesshoumaru said as he lifted his head and looked at her with his golden eyes. He was actually showing emotions. He was .... Worried of her?!
Kagome leaned her head down as she shook it. Memories of her friends, Inuyasha, her family, they wall came flooding into her mind making her eyes water. Tears fell down her cheeks. She felt a soft tender finger wipe the tears from her cheeks and arms embrace her. She buried her face into his shoulder as the tears ran freely. "Forget it all Kagome. It's no use living and remembering a past that is wished to be forgotten. No more tears remember? Not for Inuyasha, or anyone. Ok?" Sesshoumaru said as he gently hugged her. He hated to see her cry and his heart weakened whenever she did.
Kagome nodded as she wrapped her arms around his waist. Sesshoumaru pulled away from the hug but placed his hands on her shoulders and smiled at her, he actually showed a real, true smile to her. A smile mint to cheer her up and make her happy. She smiled back as she wiped the tears from her cheeks and eyes. "I'm sorry Sesshoumaru. I just couldn't help it, remembering my family and friends. For being a fool for thinking that "he" could love me instead of "her"". Sesshoumaru shook his head. "No need to be sorry. It happens, just remember I'm here, you can talk to me." He smiled and brushed a hand over her forehead moving her bangs a bit. 'So its just as I thought. I knew I saw it there the other day.' Right in the middle of her forehead there was a blue star.
Kagome nodded and smiled as he pulled his hands from her shoulder and cupped her chin in one of his hands. The stars' shinning down on them was the only light that would let any demon see this amazing moment. Her dark midnight blue eyes had melted the cold-hearted demon and made him give in to his heart for the first true time. He leaned forward and pressed his lips against hers. His golden eyes shut, her dark blue ones were open for a moment as shock went and came fast, she placed a hand on his cheek and gave into her heart as well. She felt happy for once, ever since she left Inuyasha and the others.
(Don't think this is the end of this moment, o no. It's just starting. Hehe. I just felt like leaving it here and see what you all think. Is it good, is it kewl.. is it just down right stupid. Lol I hope you all like it. In the next chapter, there well be more of the hill and night moment(s) so please review and keep reading! Thanks! ~brittany~)
