Chapter 8: Recovering

Sesshoumaru remained asleep for a few days and Akeena was beside him most of the time. *~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*
Sesshoumaru slowly came to. He opened his eyes and looked around. He saw Akeena next to him fast asleep in a chair, with Bree at her feet. He then noticed that his arms and chest (including his back) where bandaged and his kimono has clean and hanging up. He took in a deep breath and caught a unique scent, it was the one he smelled earlier. What is that rather nice scent? he thought as he sniffed the air. He smelled it over his bandages and all over in the room. He slowly sat up fully and noticed something in Akeena's lap. It was Rin and she too was fast asleep nestled into Akeena's stomach/chest.
Akeena sensing something moving in the room, opened her still gold eyes. She looked up to see Sesshoumaru getting out of bed.
"Sesshoumaru, you need to lie down and let your wounds heal," Akeena whispered as she painfully stood up and laid Rin down in the chair.
"I'm fine you stupid wench. You were foolish to risk your life like that," he said coldly.
"Well sorry for caring. I'm leaving, I've over stayed my welcome," she said angrily, anger flashing in her gold eyes. Bree carefully got up and walked over to Akeena.
"Tell Rin I said good-bye. Come on Bre-" she began but gasped, clutching her ribs. Bree took a step towards her as did Sesshoumaru.
"Akeena, your ribs, why are they still broken?" he asked watching her gasp for air. She answered angrily,
"I was busy caring for you. But like I said, sorry for caring about you and not myself. Hey there's another thing to add to the list saying I'm weak and careless. One more thing you can say is wrong with me. I guess I'm just a careless weakli-" she fell to her knees holding her ribs and slightly gasping.
"Akeena please stop. I'm sorry," Sesshoumaru said taking a couple of steps towards her. Did he just say please and that he was sorry? Akeena thought shocked.
"What are you sorry for? It wasn't your fault that my ribs are broken. It was my own stupid fault," she quickly, painfully gasping for air as she tried to stand up. She got to her feet but fell over because of the pain. Sesshoumaru dove and caught her.
"Careful. Here let me help you," he said picking her up all the way into his arms. Just then he caught a whiff of her scent, it was the one that had been bothering him all morning. He carried her over to his bed and laid her down.
"Sesshoumaru you don't have to do this. I'll be fine," Akeena gasped as she tried to get off the bed, but Sesshoumaru gently, but forcefully, pushed her back down.
"Lie down. Now it's my turn to care for you," he said quietly. Akeena did as she was told and the servant girl that always helped her out walked into the room.
"Maya take care of Akeena's ribs while I take Rin to her room," Sesshoumaru said and went to go pick Rin up, but Bree growled, standing in front of Rin. Akeena gave a small laugh and winced.
"Bree let Sesshoumaru take Rin. It's okay, he's not going to do anything," Akeena said and Bree walked over to her. Sesshoumaru picked Rin up and left the room. Maya walked over to Akeena and started to fix her ribs, but Akeena passed out cold because of the pain.
A few hours later Sesshoumaru returned. Akeena's chest and torso were completely wrapped in bandages. She was still out as he sat down in a chair. What are these damn feelings? It's like she hypnotized me when I first saw her, and her scent, it's so... lovely he thought looking over at Akeena's sleeping form. She looks so beautiful in the moonlight, Whoa! I think I'm actually attracted to this human or youkai or whatever. Nah, I can't be? can I? Sesshoumaru just confused himself more thinking about it as he dozed off.
The next morning Akeena woke up and noticed Sesshoumaru sleeping in a chair next to her. She smiled. He looks so cute when he's asleep. Whoa...where'd that come from? Me actually attracted to Sesshoumaru? No way! or can I be? Akeena's mind argued with her heart.
Sesshoumaru woke up and saw that Akeena was awake.
"How do you feel?" he asked. Akeena stared at him. He's being nice. Okay, something's wrong she thought.
"I'm fine. You?" she asked back and he nodded.
"Tell me something Akeena, are you human, youkai, or hanyou?" he asked bluntly. Akeena blinked.
