CHAPTER THREE: Didn't Miss My Heart
(AN: There might actually be a love scene in here. I'm not planning on
going into full detail, as I'm a wuss and I don't feel comfortable writing
things like that in a place where adults read stuff.you know? Probably
not.)
"Kagome, Kami, why won't you wake up?" Sesshoumaru sat in a chair next to the bed in Kagome's room. His gold eyes were staring at the sleeping woman's face, and his hands were holding hers. Sesshoumaru's chest was tense with worry, and his forehead was scrunched up in fear for this woman, this Kagome he was so terribly worried about.
A few hours later, Sesshoumaru's head was lying on the bed, he seemed to be sleeping, but he woke up every time he felt movement.
"Ash-colored daily life is like a doll that has been manipulated and stepped upon."
Sesshoumaru lifted his head quickly as he heard Kagome's tired voice, and looked at her in shock. But Kagome paid no mind to his shock.
"I have been shot by an invisible arrow, Sesshoumaru, but still, I live. I think I'm a cat. So many injuries, yet look where I am now? Sitting in a room and holding the hand of a Great Demon Lord who normally seems to be emotionless. Now what, you acting demon lord, are you gawking at?" Kagome said very calmly.
Sesshoumaru reached up with his hand to her face, and traced two gold stripes on the side of her face. Two other stripes mirrored those on the other side. His thumb brushed across the silver half moon that graced the middle of her forehead. He then felt through her messed-up hair the tips of her ears, pointed much like his. Her blue eyes had changed too. Not the color, but they looked more like a cat's eyes.
"Welcome to the demon world my dear Kagome." Sesshoumaru said, smiling.
"Eh? My, Sesshoumaru, have you gone mad, or are you sick? I already know I'm a demon." Kagome said, as she placed at hand on his forehead. "You feel cool, hmm."
Sesshoumaru took her head off of his forehead and made her feel her ears. Her cat-like eyes widened as she felt the tips.
Suddenly, Kagome started laughing like mad. Her eyes glittered with tears because she was laughing so hard. Sesshoumaru just sat there, staring blankly at this insane woman.
"Kagome, are you alright?"
"Yes!" Laughter. "Of course I am!" More laughter. "This is awesome!" More and more laughter. She sat up and threw her hands up in victory. "I wonder if I can fly? Do you think I can fly?" Kagome flung her arms around the still demon lord's neck. Her body became slack as she stopped laughing.
"Alright, that took too much energy Sesshoumaru." Kagome mumbled. Sesshoumaru patted her lightly on the back, trying to conceal the fact that he was about to burst at the seams for trying to not laugh.
"Pfft. Ah, you broke-pfft.such a serious mom-mmph-ent with your-ahem-odd outburst. Do you feel better now that you got that out of your system? You look terrible by the way."
"Oh, but I feel awful." Kagome said sarcastically, as she broke off their comical embrace
"I guess that means looks can be deceiving right?"
Kagome smiled lightly.
"Do you have any injury? You said you were hit in the chest by an arrow." Sesshoumaru asked, concern showing in his brilliant gold eyes.
"There is no blood. But I do feel a twinge of pain." Kagome said, lightly touching her chest to feel where it hurt the most.
The demon lord looked relieved. "It missed your heart then?" Kagome looked into his eyes; hers were twinkling still from her laughter.
"No, I think it hit me right in the center, if you get my drift." Kagome said, quite seriously.
Sesshoumaru's face turned pinkish. "That's not a matter to joke about Kagome."
"You think I was kidding? I'm completely serious. Note serious face."
"Oh. Well."
"Well what?" Kagome asked.
"We were meant for each other.and uh.I think I'm falling for you." Sesshoumaru said, looking away from her eyes. Kagome reached up with her hand and turned his face to look into her eyes by his chin. She leaned forward and brushed his lips with hers. His eyes opened wider in shock, and he looked cross-eyed at Kagome's closed eyes. Kagome backed away a few inches and opened her eyes at the cross-eyed Sesshoumaru.
"I do hope you realize you're a hopeless romantic Sesshoumaru." Kagome said, smirking.
Sesshoumaru uncrossed his eyes and sighed gracefully. "I know, I'm terribly hopeless."
Kagome laughed quietly. And closed her eyes as he leaned in to return the kiss she had given him just moments before. Sesshoumaru continued his ministrations by kissing her on the side of her mouth and onto her right cheek and down to her neck. Kagome wrapped her arms around the demon lord's neck and combed her fingers through his silky white hair. She moaned softly and Sesshoumaru smiled against her smooth skin.
(AN: By the way, Kagome is NOT naked. She still happens to be wearing the same kimono she had on before she collapsed. Haha.)
"I love you Kagome." Sesshoumaru mumbled as he kissed the hollowed area where the neck meets the beginning of the shoulder. "Do you love me as well?"
Kagome body tensed. Never had anyone told her such words, and she enjoyed them thoroughly. "Kami, I love you too Sesshou. You have no idea." Kagome answered, as she pulled his face up to hers so she could kiss him.
(AN: As I said before, I don't feel comfortable writing major detail. Plus, my mother might accidentally come across this.So, who wants to learn something about pressure points and how to attack them? Ha.
On the neck:
Location: Behind the jaw in the depression under the jaw Attack: Strike diagonally back to front. (This would be used best if you're behind someone.) Result: A tough hit can cause unconsciousness or dislocate the jaw. Grinding with your thumb or knuckle can cause tons of pain also.
On the leg:
Location: Inside of leg, halfway between the ankle and the lower edge of the calf muscle. Attack: Kick from inside the leg with a rising motion. Result: Causes leg to go numb. (Can be funny sometimes.) | ) Calf area | | Attack right here Feet Anyway.I hope that helps if you need it anytime! Look at that! I just taught some people stuff! Right on! Continuing on with my story.hehe)
LATER:
Sesshoumaru and Kagome were lying on Kagome's bed. Kagome was sound asleep, but Sesshoumaru was awake, not being able to ignore the thoughts going through his head.
Flashback:
"I can't do this right now. I do love you, but I'm not ready for this."
End Flashback
Sesshoumaru knew that though her mind had been rinsed of all her duties of her life just two days ago, her soul could not. She had broken the Shikon Jewel, and it was her duty to rid the world of the evils it caused by collected each shard.
"Kagome, Kami, why won't you wake up?" Sesshoumaru sat in a chair next to the bed in Kagome's room. His gold eyes were staring at the sleeping woman's face, and his hands were holding hers.
