Chapter 6 Sick

"Is this meaning that I must stop teasing you?" Sesshomaru asked Inu-yasha who laid still on his bed. The older one was sitting on the edge of the bed giving a fake expression about being worried. "Well. No ice-water showers on mornings then."

'Luckily' Inu-yasha thought when he looked at Sesshomaru to sigh. He wasn't so happy about the fact that his brother was here, but actually that was the only reason why he was here.

Sesshomaru stood up when Jaken came whining into the room. "Well" Sesshomaru stretched his back muttering. "I must take Jaken out so, don't go anywhere, brother." He pointed a finger up at Inu-yasha who sighed.

"Like I was going somewhere" Inu-yasha pointed out with his hoarse voice that became everyday worse. His fever hadn't risen at all, but it was already third day of sickness and he was feeling awful.

Sesshomaru walked out of the room and was just about to close the door when he then looked inside again. "When you get well again it will be two showers a day" he promised with a wicked smile and then left the fourth floor.

Inu-yasha stared the door after his brother left. 'Oh god' he pleaded in his mind. 'Don't let me get well!'

***boring hours later***

'How boring' Inu-yasha thought when rolling around in the bed. He felt terrible, but also very bored when you couldn't do anything. He didn't even have any real good book to read and if he would have he needed to get up and that felt awful. He wasn't lazy or anything, but just to lift your head made you feel terrible.

'I want to get well soon' he thought. 'I don't care if I get two or five ice-cold showers, but I want to get up and do something.' He sighed rolling on his back. His mother had brought him something to eat that he barely could get down. He also felt tired, but still it was boring.

Suddenly the lights of the room went on and Inu-yasha had to narrow his eyes. The bright light hurt his eyes cause he had been in a dark room already many days. His sickness took longer that it had meant to take.

He turned his head a bit to see who had come into the room. It was her mother who was so worried when he didn't get well like the nurse had promised. Someone was meant to come look at Inu-yasha tomorrow.

"Here is some lunch" his mother said silently walking beside the bed. She put the food on a table beside Inu-yasha's bed. She looked at him with worry.

Inu-yasha didn't want to meet her eyes so he looked elsewhere. He stared at the room's door. He was silent when her mother asked him needed he help. He actually wasn't listening when he saw how the transparent girl slowly walked in trough the wall beside the door. His eyes widened when they met the girls sad eyes.

"What's wrong?" his mother asked turning around. Inu-yasha's hand tried to stop her, but with no succeed. "There is nothing" the woman said and turned to look at her son again. He had a scared expression on his face. That worried his mother even more.

"Are you okay?" she asked placing her hand on his forehead. He didn't look at his mother again. The Transparent girl walked closer the bead having that sad expression that he didn't like of. "Your fever is still high. Try to sleep, son" he heard his mother to say.

He laid down on the bed giving a comforting smile to his mother. "I'll be okay" he said and made his mother to smile. He glanced at the transparent girl that now smiled a little. Smiling the mother left the room.

The smile on Inu-yasha's face disappeared and turned into a sad one. The transparent girl stood still in the middle of the room. 'So. mother can't see you.' Inu-yasha thought glancing at the girl.

He leaned up on his other elbow to get the soup from the table. He felt dizzy and fell on the bed again. Moaning with his hoarse voice he covered his eyes under his hand. He felt how some cold breeze came trough him and like something sat on the bed with him. He lifted his hand slightly and saw the girl sit on the edge of the bed.

She smiled to him a gentle smile. He gulped and covered his eyes again. 'What is this?' he asked in his mind. 'She was very sad and disappointed. even angry earlier, but now.' He looked from under his hand again at her sweet smile. '.She smiles.' Inu-yasha felt how his heart was beating harder.

His heart beated even harder when she leaned to reach his soup. She could come trough walls and everything, but she could lift the soup-bowl as well. He looked at her swallowing hard when she lifted the spoon from the soup and brought it near his lips. She smiled and he took the soup from the spoon.

Suddenly he realised how hot it was and he lifted his head and grabbed the drink from the table. When he was okay again he looked at her startled face that soon calmed down again. She took more of the soup in the spoon and blew a cold and ghost like blow on the soup.

She grinned and he had to smile a little. He felt dizzy but he didn't let it bother when their eyes were locked to each other. Inu-yasha's heart beated hard and the silence around them was uncomfortable.

Suddenly she looked away and blew on the soup again. Inu-yasha noticed something pink come on her cheeks and he realised that she was blushing. When he thought about it he felt a blush on his own cheeks as well.

He looked away and lifted his pillow so that he could have his head little upright. Then he laid down again feeling very terrible. She smiled and brought the spoon against his lips again. her cheeks were still pink, but he drank the soup from the spoon. She smiled and blushed again.

It was silent but it didn't matter. They didn't need any words when Inu- yasha finally found from his heart. 'She's really a ghost' he smiled a little behind the spoon that was brought on his lips again. 'She really is a ghost!'

***behind the door***

Sesshomaru was closing the door slowly. He had glanced in and with a smile he looked down at Jaken who finally was silent when needed. "So. he's coming crazy huh?!" he whispered to the dog. "Not to mention that there was a ghost like aura around here. Especially in his room."

Sesshomaru leaned on the door thoughtfully. "Especially when I think on that flying spoon." Sighing he walked down the stairs to his own floor. There he entered one of his room that was like a library.

In that room were all kind of freak books of aliens and ghosts or anything supernatural. That wasn't however the only things the books in the room told of. They were also of simple things like human history, the nature and usual novels.

He sat by a table he had himself built on the day when Inu-yasha got ill. There he had some old information of the family that lived in this mansion before all the ghost stuff. Also he had collected all the information he could of the former owners that had heard the cry of the ghost or even seen it and after it was taken into a madhouse.

He looked at the old newspapers he borrowed from the library and then the history of the family. He spent a long while before his eyes stuck on something interesting. "The youngest daughter never left the mansion alive" he read aloud.

He took a deep breath and put the book down. He slowly looked up at a picture he had found from one of the rooms. There was a young black haired girl standing with a bouquet of spring flowers. The girl was about seventeen or sixteen in the picture.

Slowly he walked up and walked toward the picture. "You are the girl" he whispered. "Aren't you?" He smiled sighing. He had heard the cry as well and he knew that somewhere in the mansion this ghost lived and. Inu-yasha had something to do with it.

Silently he left the room and headed for the stairs just when his mother called for dinner. He sighed yet again and walked down Jaken following right behind.

A/N: I'm so happy that I could finally get more chapters of this into the net. Happier I am. of course. for your reviews. I also hope you'll check on my other stories. For example Stuck in one time. It's a crazy story with no exact story-line, but I just like to write it.

I still ask about Koishi's name. Tell me is it bothering you. I don't want to make everyone hate me for it.

I try to write today the next chapter so it can come up also.

Thanks!!
