In this chapter you find out about the title and I am using the song Blonde Over Blue by Billy Joel. I do not own it.

Sesshomaru closed his eyes and felt the tears roll down his face. After a moment or so he put back on the mask of indifference and once more shoved his emotions to the back of his mind. He growled as he heard footsteps outside his door. He flexed his claws and was ready to rip the throat out of anyone who entered. But the footsteps got fainter and he relaxed once more. Slowly the next song came on and the melody filled his ears.

Some days when I'm far away / In a lonely room in a cold seclusion

A slow smile spread across his face. It described this night so well.


Some nights when I'm wound so tight / There is no release, there is no solution

If tonight isn't like that, then no night ever will be.


In hell there's a big hotel / Where the bar just closed and the windows never opened / No phone so you can't call home / And the T.V. works, but the clicker is broken /

It described his life so well since she left. There was nothing left to live for.


But in the darkness I see your light turned on

Her light was always on. He could always go there for help or comfort.

You know my weakness, you know how I respond to /

"Her" He finished the sentence out loud.


Blonde over blue...your hands are cold, your eyes are fire /

A frown pulled Sesshomaru's eyebrows together. Naraku's final words before she purified him to ashes were a cures upon her forever. He had leaped upon her and grabbed her half of the sacred jewel and wished that she should be cursed forever in whatever way the jewel chose. The curse that had been chosen was her transformation into an inu demon. Golden, almost white hair and ice blue eyes.

Blonde over blue...they shine as though you're burning inside

The song described her perfectly.


One word from you is all I need to be inspired / Blonde over blue...I need your inspiration tonight

One word from his love was all he needed. He had comforted her after her change and after Inuyasha abandoned her for his dead woman. He had no need for someone that reminded him of his mixed blood. Sesshomaru had taken her to his castle and fell in love.


These days there's a million ways / To be pulled and torn, to be misdirected

Nothing was clear anymore, nothing was straight forward except his love for her.


These times there are sins and crimes / On the morning shows for the disconnected

Nothing to do in this world infested by human scum. Nothing to do but sit and dwell upon the one mistake in his life. That is how he wanted it.


I look and I write my book / And I walk away with the wrong impressions

He wrote down everything that had happened, it was etched in blood on the pages of his heart. And nothing was clear.


I don't care 'cause I've done my share / And I need some time for my own obsessions

He had thought he was all done that he had nothing more to do, but he was wrong. She had shown him that. After she had left he thought he needed to be alone. In anger he had killed anyone that had come near him. He ran through the city, through the limited countryside, and it only made it worse. For so long he had never been alone, and he was frightened.


It doesn't matter, I've let that life go by / It's been forgotten 'cause all I wanted was you

Nothing mattered anymore.

Blonde over blue...your hands are cold, your eyes are fire / Blonde over blue...they shine as though you're burning inside

The fire in her eyes told of her suffering and her injured soul. Her cold hands told of the black blood that flowed through her veins and how it had caused her betrayal.

One word from you is all I need to be inspired / Blonde over blue...I need your inspiration tonight

Nothing could bring her back now. And he needed her so much.

These days not a damn soul prays / And there is no faith 'cause there's nothing to believe in

Nobody would believe, even if there was something to believe in


These days only good luck pays

And he had awful luck


If we don't get paid then we try to get even

But he couldn't get even now, not with her, and everyone else left him alone.


I look and I write my book / And I have my say and I draw conclusions

The book in his heart. The conclusions he drew did nothing to help.


Some nights when I'm wound so tight / There is no release there is no solution

Tonight, and every night since she left.


But in the darkness I see your light turned on / You know my weakness, you know how I respond to

He needed her so badly.

Blonde over blue...your hands are cold, your eyes are fire / Blonde over blue...they shine as though you're burning inside /

Her face flashed before his eyes

One word from you is all I need to be inspired / Blonde over blue...I need your inspiration tonight

"Come back to me" Sesshomaru whispered to the air around him, his soul reached out to find hers.

There it is! Okay, well I got a few reviews asking for an explanation. Well, it isn't supposed to be clear yet, the whole thing is pointing to when you find out what he did to drive "her" away. Although I bet everyone can guess who "she" is. In this chapter you find out about the title and
