Sesshy:……just get on with it
Star: hehe ok here's chapter 10
Chapter 10 Good Mornings & Visitors
Soft. Warm. And Comfortable. That's what Kagome felt when she woke up. 'what is this' she thought as she looked up to see what it was. 'it's Sesshomaru, but how.' then she remembered last night.
"he stayed with me last night" she said just above a whisper.
"yes I did" replied the thought to be asleep demon lord. Kagome jumped slightly. He was awake and he heard her. Kagome blushed. Then she noticed that she was still in the demon lords arms. She tried to wiggle out but he just tightened his grip on her.
"uh um I-I-" Kagome stuttered blushing furiously. of course not noticing his face coming closer to hers. Kagome finally realized when warm flesh touched her forehead. When looked up she stared straight into golden orbs. Sesshomaru's forehead was connected with hers and his warm breath caressed her lips.
'oh my god is he going to' but like always she was snapped out of her thought by her door practically slamming open.
"Lord Sesshomaru I've found you" Jaken's voice screeched. But Sesshomaru did not remove his forehead from hers.
"what is it jaken" he asked keeping his gaze with Kagome. "uh well there are some humans at the front gate and you were scheduled to survey your lands milord" jaken said a tad nervous. He had just interrupted his lord. 'oh I hope he doesn't take another 100 years off me life span'
"who is at the front gate jaken do you know"
"uh yes, they look like the filthy companions that lady Kagome used to travel with" jaken answered. Wrong answer. Kagome broke the loving gaze, jumped of the bed and stomped over to jaken.
"don't you ever call them filthy you stupid toad" Kagome yelled. How dare he call them filthy. Well she'd show him filthy. Just as she was about to kick jaken into another corner of Japan Sesshomaru stopped her.
"Kagome I believe you should get ready to greet your companions. You wouldn't want to be seen in your night gown would you"
Kagome looked down at her gown. It was all wrinkly and a few buttons had opened. Kagome again for the millionth time blushed and nodded her head.
"yes you're right I will" Kagome said turning to get dressed. But before she could get even two steps away Sesshomaru pulled her back. He leaned down quickly and placed a sweet tender kiss on her lips and left for his own room to get ready.
Kagome sighed loudly. That was her first kiss. And she liked it. Kagome happily hopped over to her hot spring. She would take a quick dip in and get ready.
"jaken"
"uh y-yes milord" he stuttered. Oh great he was going to get it now.
"jaken, you will never insult Kagome's friends again. And if you then there will be consequences, dire consequences" Sesshomaru spoke as he got ready to survey his lands.
(Outside)
"hey let us in, we're here to see Kagome" sango said trying to push pass the two gate guards.
"sorry we can't do that and it Lady Kagome to you humans" one guards replied. Sango growled. They were going to let her in. She raised her boomerang ready to let it rip.
"sango you don't have to tear down the guards to see me" Kagome replied from behind the gate
"Kagome! Is that you! Could you please tell this stubborn guard to let us in" sango said eying the guards. Kagome just laughed and told them to let them in. "Kagome!" sango yipped and clutched onto her. Her sister was a demon. (not real sister)
"oh my I can't believe that this is you. You look amazing!" sango said getting a better look at her friend.
"yes Kagome I have to agree with sango, you look amazing" miroku said trying to grope Kagome.
"miroku I wouldn't do that if I were you" Kagome warned. "why not" sango asked curiously.
"because one my parents are watching us and secondly Sesshomaru and I arearrangedtobemates" Kagome spoke rushing the last parts together. But sango heard. "what you and Sesshomaru" sango practically yelled.
"yep and you know what he's not that bad. Actually he's very sweet" Kagome whispered. "well whatever makes you happy, but if he hurts you I'll have his head" sango said getting serious. Kagome just giggled.
"come on I bet Shippo will be glad to see you guys and Kirara" Kagome said bringing her friends into the castle. And just like predicted Shippo came bouncing out of the castle.
"Sango! Miroku! Kirara! Yay!" he chirped happily. He hugged each one of them and began to play with Kirara. Kagome just watched as Shippo introduced the two-tail cat demon to Rin.
"come on you guys I want you to meet my family" Kagome said directing them over to the group of demons that stood near the entrance of the palace.
After all the introductions had been made Sesshomaru came out of the castle. He was wearing the usual with his armor intact and swords at his side.
"Sesshomaru I hear you are going to survey your lands, would you mind if I come along" Kanzuo asked stepping forward.
"no I don't mind at all in fact I could use some help" Sesshomaru replied. "ok well then lets go, I see you later dear" Kanzuo said giving his wife as quick kiss. Sesshomaru turned to Kagome and gave her a sly grin and said 'later' telepathically. Kagome was completely taken back. What did he mean by later. Was he going to see her later or was something going to happen later. So she did the only thing she could do, blush.
Which of course got the attention of all the females. 'why can't I stop blushing she asked herself. This was ridiculous.
"hey Kagome why's your face so red" Violet teased.
"oh its nothing really" Kagome said trying to cover up the ever growing blush. The girls just giggled at her shyness.
"oh Kagome since you are to be the Lady of the West, I thought you should get a little training in for the part" Mia said happily.
"what who's going to train me" Kagome asked.
"well she was my teacher before I became your fathers mate, just try to seem interested or she'll make it even harder than it really is" her mom warned.
"so your going to stick me with some cranky old woman who takes life way to serious"
"don't worry Souta will be taking Prince lessons as well" Mia smiled. Kagome just hung her head. Great now she's gotta deal this old hag. 'old hag, only Inuyasha said old hag'. then she remembered Inuyasha. Kagome sighed, she missed him. Even if she could never have him she still missed him.
"hey Kagome you ok" sango asked. Kagome just smiled "yeah I'm fine"
(sorry but I'm to lazy to describe everything that went on so I'm gonna fast-forward)
Over the course of the first week of courting, Kagome and Sesshomaru had gotten very close. They rarely slept in separate rooms. But they never mated. Since they had a week left why rush it. It was mid-afternoon and the sound of metal clashing with metal could be heard.
CLING! CLANG! CLUNK!
"you're getting better Kagome" Sesshomaru said dodging her sword.
"why thank you, but I'm not through yet" Kagome said twirling her sword in her hand. As it picked up speed it started to glow a light pink. Soon after she let it go, throwing it at Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru blocked the sword with his own sending it right back to her.
"hm, it seems that your attach failed" he said with a smirk.
"we'll see" she said.
"since you want to use attacks like that so will I"
Sesshomaru held up his sword and brought it down but nothing happened. He tried again and nothing happened.
"what did you do" he asked. Kagome just giggled.
"my arrows aren't the only thing that can temporarily disable demonic powers" Kagome smiled triumphantly. Sesshomaru just smirked. So she thought she had fully disabled him.
"hm very smart Kagome" he said with an evil grinned. Kagome's eyes widened. Then she just started running and he took of after her. Attacking from behind her. And all she did was run around yelling things like "AH! Sesshomaru's attacking, Sesshomaru's attacking" and "wild dog". Everyone else just laughed at the couple.
Until a haggard old voice said "stop playing around Princesses don't play around". Everyone stopped what they were doing to look at the old demon-ness that stood before them.
"quit playing around child and lets get to work" she said in a more demanding voice. Kagome walked over to the older woman (much older) and asked "are you the woman who is-"
"suppose to train you in Princess and Lady etiquette yes. And where is the young Prince you told me about Mia" she asked.
"oh he's right here" Mia said pushing Souta to the front. The old woman looked him over and then turned to leave to the castle.
"well come along you two, we don't have all day" she commanded. Both Kagome and Souta kicked it into high gear and ran to the old woman's side.
"tsk tsk tsk, lesson number one never run, always pace yourself" she scolded.
'grr pace myself I'll show her pacing'
'Kagome just relax' Sesshomaru coaxed.
'hn your right, how bad could this be' Kagome cheered.
"hurry up you two, is there something wrong with your legs. Come on lets go!"
Souta clutched onto Kagome's hand. He didn't like this lady one bit. Kagome who was equally scared of her squeezed his hand and walked close him. If they were going down at least they'd go down together.
About 4 hours later
Both Kagome and Souta collapsed on the soft green grass outside once their Sensei left. Mia and Kanzuo just looked at their children. It was a miracle that they both survived the old woman teachings.
"you guys ok" Mia asked sweetly.
"oh yeah I'm just great, I really don't want to do that again" Kagome said exhausted. Souta agreed that woman was crazy.
"well since you two already ate dinner with your sensei I think you should head off to bed" Kanzuo proposed.
"yeah that sounds like a great idea dad. I'm going to clean myself up and then I'll head of to bed. Maybe the hot water can loosen my sore muscles, come on Souta" Kagome said lifting her brother up off the ground"
(in the bushes near the castle)
"hehe, great everything is in place she will be unprepared and unfocused" a sinister voice said from the bushes
"what do you want me to do Naraku" a wind sorceress said from her spot behind Naraku.
"send in the hanyou and miko and we'll go from there"
