Rainy Day Songs: Chapter 2: Say What?
"So Mr.Taisho-" Sesshomaru quickly cut her in. "Just Sesshomaru. I don't like to know that my father has the same last name as I." Kagome raised her perfect charcoal eyebrow in his direction, but he decided to go against recognizing it. 'Ok…So this might be a little tougher than I expected.' Kagome thought to herself giving an inward sigh.
"Ok Sesshomaru," Kagome said making sure to put a strain on his name just to see if he was easily irritable. No such luck, he just sat there pretending to be unaffected by it. "What's your favorite color?" She smiled wide and asked him. Now it was his turn to raise a perfectly constructed eyebrow at her.
He blinked.
She blinked.
They stared.
Bam, crash, and a lightning flash!
"Sounds like we're having a storm soon, doesn't it?" She asked trying to make lighter conversation before hitting the big question. Maybe, just maybe it would break through to him…
"So…What's your favorite color, Sesshomaru?" She smiled wide and asked him. Now it was his turn to raise a perfectly constructed eyebrow at her. "What makes you think this Sesshomaru has a favorite color?" He asked her obviously trying to get on her nerves. Maybe she'd leave him alone if he pestered her enough. "Everyone has a color that they find appealing to the eye. It may be one, it may be many, it may even be all of them, but they have one!" Kagome replied. She didn't give up that easily.
"This Sesshomaru does not have a favorite color, wench." The mighty lord of corporations retorted. "So instead of figuring out which color is your favorite, you prefer to spend you days speaking in third person?" Kagome just smiled slightly and kept calm through out of all the 'conversation' they held. He had evidently not noticed that while they sat here arguing, it was still a conversation. Oh yes, she gave herself credit for being so incredibly smart.
"Yellow." He answered her simply. She looked suspicious for a second before it dawned on her what he was answering. "Did you know that yellow means you're a conservative-type of guy and a work-a-holic?" She laughed at herself and at the thought that his looney person was conservative and loved to work…He had more issues than a box of tissues.
"What's your favorite color?" She snapped out of her thoughts quite quickly at the question. That was the last thing she was expecting. "It'd have to be blue. Definitely. Kagome replied unable to think of another suitable answer. "What does blue mean?" He asked trying to not sound too curious. "Unless of course this complete session was a mix up and you have no idea what you speak of. I say I'd have to learn towards that." He was noticeably trying to get on her nerves, but she sat there silently.
She wouldn't let him ruin her damn good mood. "Well, since I'm having a dandy day. I won't pay attention to your desperate attempts at trying to raise my temper. You might want to try on a different day, though." Kagome beamed towards him.
"And what, may I say, has you in such a…good mood." He seemed disgusted that her mood was good while he suffered miserably in the solitary room. "Ah, don't be a party pooper! It only gets better here…wait until we decide to have a holiday party. Jeez, the twins Jakotsu and Bankotsu both got really drunk. Don't even get me started on Kouga. He just went all out. Haha, and then this one ti-" She was hastily cut off by the silver-haired stranger.
"What are you? Four years old? You speak way too much, girl." He replied calmly. His façade slipping rather nicely back into place. Not that it was every truly gone in the first place.
They spent most of the time in the room just asking each other stupid questions. Sesshomaru thought that the 'Question Game', as she liked to call it, was quite childish. He played along anyway. It wasn't like he had anywhere important to be.
Scratch that.
It wasn't like he had anywhere to be period since he was stuck in the awful place until they thought him all better. It wasn't his fault he was in here! He couldn't help being a work-a-holic…
Anyway, as they continued through the game he seemed to find that the woman wasn't necessarily as stupid as he had pinned her to be. Still a worthless, common worker, but not as stupid. Step up the ladder, right?
Kagome took a quick glance at her watch. Wow. It was already a little past eight o'clock. "Sorry Sesshomaru, but I do believe you've won this round. I have to be getting home at some point." She stood out of her white, small chair as he followed her with his eyes.
"Do you still want to refuse my visits?" She asked him before leaving. "As far as I know I do not run this nut house. I do not order my visitors." Hey, that was as good as any invitation she was going to get from the cold bastard. Oh she'd get him to open up if she had to pry his mouth open with a spatula and take all the information out by pure, brutal force.
Sesshomaru also stood to make his way over the bedroom section of his little bird house, as he liked to call it. She stood to leave but only served to drop her folder.
"Chikuso!" (Shit). "It's not polite for little ladies to curse, you know?" Sesshomaru said earning him a glare from the young woman. She didn't notice that she hadn't finished picking up her papers as she purposely made noise as she stormed out of the mighty one's room.
He shook his head at her antics. It was a funny sight to see as his face was still unmoving. He was about to close the door when he looked down and saw a couple of papers that were left and scattered. There were a couple of doodles that he figured she had drawn while she was either in session with a patient or in a meeting earlier.
He was sorting them into an order. Yes, he was a work-a-holic conservative freak, but at least he was a neat bachelor, right? He saw beautiful writing that looked like a letter. A love letter to her lover, maybe? Did she even have a boyfriend?
He began to read and was surprised at what he say. She knew his brother? Who in their right mind would speak to that insolent imbecile?
Wait. Hadn't he been put in here as well? That's right, several months ago his parents Inutaisho and Izayoi had locked the poor hanyo in here for being too obsessed with his girlfriend Kikyo. Ugh, the most repulsive part about it was that they were still together.
Dear Lost Heart,
You've left me here alone tonight to think of all the things I've done to cause this end to fall into place and the beginning to fall apart. And when I fall asleep tonight, Inuyasha…You're all that I see. I wish that you could see all that you mean to me, but you can't. I thought you'd come back, but I'll close my eyes, just for tonight. Somewhere far away, maybe there's a place where my dreams still remain…Someday, I'll find a way to keep myself from holding on any longer. I have to let you go, Inuyasha. I'll stay awake with only the sound of my voice to follow in the darkness you left me in…
Couldn't you see how restless my heart became from the silence you've cause in the air? I want to be in that place so far away. That place where every time you blink through glorious eyes you find that another of your wishes has come true. I've tried to reach that place to no avail…for that I give myself a peace. That small push in one direction was the push that tore my heart away from itself. It was the hardest tear that I've ever had to repair…I'm still working on it as you can see. I can only think of our sweet autumn torture. I just wanted to be where love is real, and where the memories of our distant life can leave me once and for all. Can't you see that all I want is to forget? I could never regret, but all I want is to forget…
I'm just hoping that the room I finally decide to stay in time stands still. Time stood still for us once, when I wasn't aware of change…The world I once had left me behind all alone to fend for myself. This is the last letter that I will write to you about my heart. This is the last letter that I will waste to cry my tears for. This is the last letter that will make its way into my hands. I've learned that there's no mercy for those poor souls that hold on. I can't hold on anymore. I can't break apart anymore. I can't say I blame you for leaving, though I wish that I could. I'm sick of writing every letter for you.
You thought I couldn't life without you, but I guess I proved you completely wrong. Good bye…
Kagome…♥
There was more to her than the youkai had seen on her surface. How much more? Why was he even interested? She was a human. Worthless in ever aspect. He'd soon forget about her. She didn't know him. She didn't intend to.
Dun dun dun. The end. I hope you guys like it. Sorry that it's kind of short but I have to get packing. I'm going on a fishing trip tomorrow. Hehe.
