Hey all. I want to apologize to my readers who liked my story, and the ones who made me want to write more! I just got out of summer school for two weeks. I was doing nothing but algebra for 7 hours straight, plus a lot of other things came up, so I just haven't had the time to update, but now I do! So here is the third chapter!
Disclaimer: I don't own any of the Inuyasha characters.
Chapter 3- The Meeting
Sesshomaru was getting very annoyed. The man sitting next to him would not wake up. His snoring was very loud, and he had bad breath. He felt like doing what the woman did on the thin strips commercial, but he ate his last one before he got on the plane.
"Damn him" He mumbled and went back to his newspaper, but couldn't concentrate. He was starting to choke on that mans bad breath when he heard a loud thump in the middle of the isle.
The thump sounded a lot heavier than a suitcase or a book. It almost sounded like it was a human. Maybe it was that large man that ate way too much doughnuts; he seemed to have a never-ending supply of them. Sesshomaru kept on having these bad images in his head. Ones like, the large man in the middle of the isle with a doughnut lodged into his abnormally large mouth. He shuddered, it was gross, and just the thought of it was even grosser than gross, but he didn't move.
That was until he heard people screaming for a doctor. "Well there is my call." He got up, and was thankful to be away from the man with bad breath. He walked down the isle and was shocked. There, in the isle, was a woman. She looked pale, and fragile. The stewardess grabbed his arm and rushed him the woman's side.
Sesshomaru bent down and checked her pulse. Her skin was warm, and smooth to the touch, but by god was she pale. He picked her up and was surprised at how little she was. He took her to his seat and sat her down.
"Stay calm every one, she's fine, and she just fainted that's all" He told all the worried and confused people and to the people who had no idea what was going on. He bent back down to her level and shook her shoulder to wake her up. He wondered why she was so pale. Was she ill? Or was she just tired. He tried to find an answer to why she had fainted when he noticed a movement.
He shook her shoulder once more and was finally successful. Her eyes fluttered open, and he thought he seen a flash of hope in them, but if there was it was quickly erased away, and was filled with pain. He was fixing to say something but she broke in, her voice was cracked, and hoarse like she had been crying.
"W-what happened?" Kagome looked at the man who was next to her. She felt pain freshly wrap it self around her already broken heart. He looked so much like him, but there was something different about him. He was more angelic like than the ruggedness of Inuyasha, more graceful. This mystery man had golden eyes just like his, but his eyes where more dark, and his hair was a very light blond almost like silver. She shuddered and yelled at her self not to think of the one who hurt her the most, but then the man spoke interrupting her thoughts.
"Ma'am, what just happened was that you fainted for no reason" His voice was so soft in her ear, and suddenly the memory of her dream, and the final moment when she went into a pit of blackness came rushing back to her. Oh no, she was going to cry in front of this stranger, and she didn't want to but the tears came. They didn't want to stop; they were pouring all the pain and hurt out of her body.
Suddenly arms wrapped around her, and all she could smell was her tears and the smell of his cologne, but used his shoulder to cry everything out. He was smoothing her hair to comfort her, and saying thing to help her feel better. She new it was a gentle jester, but it felt so nice for someone to care about her in this moment in time. Finally when the tears stopped she looked up.
"T-thank you" She got up and returned to her seat, and not looking back afraid of the memory's that will haunt her.
Sesshomaru was very confused. The woman began crying, but he felt guilt suffocate and wrap around him, and pulled her in his arms to comfort her, and the guilt was suddenly erased away. Where these attractions? It couldn't be, because he would think she was sexy, but he did. He just wanted to help her, ease her pain, but when she stopped crying she suddenly got up and left. That, for some reason, hurt him. He hardly knew the woman let alone her name, and when she left it had hurt him.
He was getting pissed, and tired. He leaned back and stared up at the ceiling, and finally made a decision. He was going to talk to her. Falling fast asleep moments later, he didn't notice a pair of eyes watching him from behind.
In America-
Inuyasha paced around the room. He couldn't believe he got caught, and he had been so tricky for the past 3 months, but he also felt guilty for what had happened. He spotted Kikyo gathering her clothes together. He had dated Kikyo before he met Kagome. Kikyo cheated on him with his employer Naraku, who had quit and began to run his own doctor firm back in America. So when he started making the big buck, she ran to him and lived with him and that's when he met Kagome, her sister.
She had her own business. It was a toy making company and it had gotten really popular and grew to the biggest toy company through out the world. Well he was in a rut, because everybody had quit his firm and, it left in him debt, so he hooked up with Kagome just to use her money to get out of it. Yeah, he new it was selfish, but he needed the money. Plus, he started to have feelings for her.
She had moved out with her mother, and moved in with him, and they came to America and he joined Naraku's firm, and he started to make money, but not enough. After a couple of years he started stealing money behind her back. While he was stealing the money he went to strip clubs, and picked up hookers so he could be satisfied. The reason why he never tried to do it with Kagome was because she reminded him of Kikyo, and didn't want to make the mistake in calling her that. Then Kikyo came back, and he started to have an affair with her.
Inuyasha punched the wall. Guilt was wrapping around his throat and was choking him. Its darkness was beginning to poison his veins. He felt it all, and he deserved it. Kikyo wrapped her arms around his waist and began to kiss him. He fell deeply with in her embrace, but something inside him snapped and he knew he had to fix things between him and Kagome, and with that he left with Kikyo.
On the Plane-
Kagome felt as the plane was soon to land. Her ears began to pop. She had watched the man for a long time while he slept. She wanted to talk to him, but didn't know how in fear of remembering Inuyasha. Heck, he'll always haunt her, and she knew she'll never escape the death grip on her heart. It slowly began to taint her heart black, and anger was growing deep within her. How could she be such a fool, and idiot, thinking that he loved her?
She kicked the empty seat in front of her but only ended up kicking the metal hinge and catching the gap between it. She felt the metal scrape against her skin, tearing it open. It was stuck, she tried to pull on it but it wouldn't budge. So she got up but tripped on her purse and spun on her back, twisting her ankle. She felt something snap.
"OW!" She wailed in pain and tried to curl up. She heard foot step approach her, and looked up embarrassed. It was the man. She flushed as tears rolled down her face.
"It'll be okay miss" He leaned over and examine her foot. She winced as he gently began to pull it out of the metal gap. She heard something ripping and noticed that he was ripping the sleeve of his expensive shirt.
"Oh no, look at your shirt. You didn't have to do that sir," She told him as he wrapped it around her bleeding foot, which was turning purple and beginning to swell. Suddenly he placed her in her chair. "Be right back miss" He walked over to the pilot, and started to talk to him. The pilot nodded in understanding and bowed to him. The man bowed back and walked back to her.
"Come on, lets take you to the hospital" he picked her up bridal style and walked off the plane.
"Hey, what about our luggage?" She asked looked for her purse and her bag, which had a few cloths she bought on the way.
"They are being brought to the hospital" He said and walked up to a black Ferrari. He opened the door and placed her inside.
Once she was inside she looked around. The car was really expensive, and wondered what he did for a living. He got behind the wheel, and cranked it up, the engine roared to life, and he drove away from the airport, away from the dark past that she was leaving behind. In the silence she looked out the window, everything was going by in a flash, and the fresh pain in her ankle was making her a little queasy.
"What is you name?" She asked trying to make conversation, so she won't feel so alone again.
"It's Sesshomaru, and yours is?" He looked at her and smiled politely.
" My name is Kagome Higurashi" She smiled back but she couldn't stand to see his smile, she didn't deserve kindness, or anything like that for what she did, but she couldn't figure out what she did so wrong, and why she had to suffer the pain and anguish. She knew she would run into Inuyasha again, but she hoped it wouldn't be soon, because she knew that she wouldn't be able to live. Sesshomaru said something, but she didn't catch what he said.
"Are you okay?" He said interrupting her thought once more. She was glad he did because, her heart was starting to break whatever was left and crumble.
"I'm sorry, and yes I'm fine, but what did you say before that?" She looked at him as he smiled.
"I said, you're the one who owns that really big toy company right?" Sesshomaru looked at her face, and she nodded. She was still pale, and wondered why, but he wasn't going to get into that yet. Her eyes now where filled with anguish. He so desperately wanted to hold her, and tell her that everything was going to be all right, but he could do nothing about it. First he had to take her to the hospital, his hospital, and fix her leg, and to figure out why he was feeling this way towards a woman he hardly knows. As he drove on he watched her fall asleep peacefully, not knowing the dreams that would haunt her behind closed eyes.
