A/N- Back again and with another chapter! Gots my own comp now, so it should be easier for me to update. Yay!
Disclaimer- If I owned the series, there'd be no viewers.
Chapter eight-
"Your turn," Sesshomaru remarked.
The two had been taking turns in asking each other questions while they sat in this ridiculously messy closet. The only rule was that you had to answer truthfully. Sesshomaru seemed to be fine with this rule up until now.
"Who was your first kiss?" Kagome asked with a grin.
"Pass," he answered.
The raven haired girl frowned. They each were aloud three passes and it was only now that Sesshomaru had chosen to use one. Shrugging, she tried to think of something else to ask him. "Okay then, why do you hate me so much?"
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow in response. "Hate you? I don't hate you."
"Oh," Kagome responded softly. "Your turn then."
Sesshomaru rested his head against the wall. They had been going back and fourth for quite a while now. Right when the raven haired girl had suggested the game, he had known instantly just what he wanted to ask her. But he waited. First he would allow her to trust him. Now he would ask.
"What happened to you?"
Kagome turned her head slightly to look at him. Her expression was of confusion. "What do you mean?"
He sighed. "Who hurt you Kagome?"
The girl turned away. "Pass."
Sesshomaru frowned. "You used up your last pass three questions ago and therefore am obligated to answer."
"I don't want to play this game anymore," Kagome replied.
"Thats fine because its not a game anymore. Now who hurt you Kagome?" He watched as she tried to scoocth away from him but the closet was too small. On closer inspection he saw that she was crying. In a way he felt respnsible. He put an arm around her.
She tried to shrug him off but he wouldn't let go. "He had pretended to care too." Kagome kept back a sob. "I trusted him...and then once we started dating he...changed." She fought back the urge to shed more tears. "Then one day he hit me."
Sesshomaru tightened his hold on Kagome. "I would never hit you," he whispered.
She started trembling in his hold. "After that he would always hurt me. Always leaving bruises. You're stupid and worthless, he would say. Nobody wants you."
Kagome suddenly went silent. She was trying not to cry again.
Sesshomaru ran a reassuring hand through her hair. "I would never do that." He whisperd. "Never." He felt bad for all the times he was ever mean to her. For all the times he had given her a hard time. "I'm so sorry Kagome."
For once the raven haired girl felt at ease and comforted. Her mind and heart both knew he was being sincere. Sesshomaru did care. He just always tried so hard not to show it. "Thankyou," she mumbled softly. With her head on his shoulder, she was comforable and ready for some sleep.
Sensing this, Sesshomaru allowed the girl to use him as a pillow. "Get some rest." With the way things looked, it would seem that the two were stuck here all night anyways.
"Good night, fluffy."
The silver haired boy smiled. "Good night, brat."
