Authors Note: I do not in any way own Inu-Yasha nor will I ever.

Ok, I am going INSANE! I NEED INTERNET! Gah! OK… I've wanted to do this chapter FOREVER but yesterday I was at my friend's sleepover (which sucked as I was picked on so I left to go walk home at 2:00am in the morn, I live down the street.) And then this morning I went to her house again to pick up my stuff and we got in a fight and she nearly killed me… I was making fun of her cause she lost half her eyebrow using that nair stuff on her face. But now I'm back and ready to write…XD she doesn't have an eyebrow…

I don't know how to spell Reiokoutsai TT

Chapter 22: Don't Play With Me

0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0o0

Inu-Yasha growled, punching the ground, upset with what he had just seen.

"DAMN HIM!" Inu-Yasha growled.

"Damn who?" A voice questioned from behind. Inu-Yasha turned around to see Sango staring at him. "What's wrong Inu-Yasha?"

Inu-Yasha sighed. "It's none of your business. Ok?"

"Well whatever."

Inu-Yasha watched as Sango left. He had to tell someone. But the only person he could tell… was… Kagome! He had to see Kagome. Inu-Yasha picked himself up and started to leave to go see Kagome, he couldn't tell anyone. If what he heard was right Kikyou wanted to kill him. And now that Kikyou was alive, she could very well do that, especially if Naraku gave her a jewel shard. And so, in three days of walking, he would finally talk to Kagome. He didn't want to run, because he didn't want to go too fast because just two days ago was the party. Inu-Yasha would have no reason to talk to Kagome.

Once they all got in Kagome and Sesshomaru had noticed that they had stayed out quite longer then he thought. It was already the afternoon and he had some work to do. After the two of them went upstairs to clean up they went back to their jobs, at least, Kagome did. Sesshomaru on the other hand couldn't concentrate. His thoughts were clouded with the events from before. Emotions did kill. And emotions did hurt.

When Sesshomaru was 4 years old in human years, his mother died of a broken heart. His father had found another tramp. A human out of all the things. Sesshomaru's mother, at that point, got very sick. Sesshomaru's mother had loved his father, but alas his father did not feel the same way. Sesshomaru's grandparents betrothed his parents. His mother came to fall in a deep love with her mate but her mate did not do the same. Soon he started to leave the castle more often. Then he'd come home later. That's when one day he came home with another mate. A human who bore the same mark as Sesshomaru's mother. Sesshomaru despised the woman because he knew she had killed his mother. One day Sesshomaru had even seen his mother crying about his father not letting her mark him. Of course this was before his father was leaving, and before Sesshomaru even knew about marking.

And his father, he too died for love. He died because of his stupid emotions. Sesshomaru's father was in love with the stupid human. He died getting revenge for his newest mate after she was killed by the demon Reiokoutsai. Dieing shows weakness and because of dieing for love Sesshomaru saw his father as the weakest because love was even weaker then dieing.

Love could make you do stupid things. Love made you weak. Love makes you put the people you love before yourself, which is stupid according to Sesshomaru. And Sesshomaru kept thinking about this until he heard a knock at the door revealing Etsu who had come to tell him it was dinnertime.

Sesshomaru swiftly walked the halls until he reached the dinning room where for the first time Kagome, Rin, and Jaken were at the table before him. As he walked by Kagome who smiled at him gleefully. He actually kind of… liked her smile. He gradually sat down at his chair and ate. Looking up sometimes to see Kagome talking to Rin and laughing. Rin seemed to really enjoy her.

Once the meal was done he slowly excused himself and left without saying a word. Kagome watched him leave frowning a bit. She wanted to know what she had done to make him so upset. He hadn't said a word to her since he told her to 'come on' and get back to the castle. She got up and took Rin with her.

Kagome got Rin ready and tucked her in before going to her own room and getting her nightgown on. She sighed and finally took up the resolve to go and see why Sesshomaru seemed so upset. It was eating her from inside.

Kagome walked the castle halls, chilled a bit by the cooler summer air. She cursed to herself that she was still wearing her stupid nightgown but couldn't go back in case Sesshomaru went to bed before she could get to him. She finally reached the his bedroom door and knocked on it, gulping. She was surprised when Sesshomaru himself opened the door instead of just saying 'come in'. Kagome gaped a bit because Sesshomaru was just wearing the bottom to his kimono. Luckily for her he was still getting ready.

"Uh, I'm sorry to disturb you my Lord but I wish to talk to you about something." Kagome said setting her eyes to the floor embarrassed at her own gaping. Sesshomaru just raised an eyebrow and gestured her to enter.

The room was warmer then the halls, a fire going in the fireplace. Kagome stepped in while Sesshomaru slowly closed the door, examining Kagome and liking what he saw. Her nightgown went to the middle of her upper thigh. It was black with lace frill at the bottom. There were two thin straps at the top holding the nightgown up.

"So why is it that you're here Ms. Kagome?" Sesshomaru said calmly.

Kagome looked up from the floor and turned around to look at Sesshomaru. She slowly walked over to him.

"Um, Sesshomaru-Sama? How come you havn't spoken to me after this afternoon? Did I do something wrong?"

Sesshomaru looked at her. How could she have sensed such a thing? He didn't always talk to her so why would now be different. How did she know?

"Well, I just have been busy."

"Oh…" Kagome said looking at the ground. She could tell he was lying but couldn't figure out why he'd lie to her. "Oh, and I'm sorry about getting us caught in the rain this morning. I didn't know it was going to rain."

Sesshomaru watched her as he walked up to her, cautiously to see how'd she react. Noticing she didn't care he easily moved right up to her.

"It's alright. Though that is not why I havn't been talking to you though."

Kagome nodded. Suddenly she smelt something she had smelt before, the smell before the party. She looked up at Sesshomaru grinning slyly. He was aroused. She might have noticed when she felt his eyes gliding over her body when she entered the room. Was he pleased? She decided to change the mood, not liking how she was making Sesshomaru upset. He obviously didn't want to talk about why he wasn't talking. Sesshomaru watched as Kagome pulled her hand up to his cheek and brushed it on his cheek. Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow, not getting where Kagome was going.

"Sesshomaru-Sama? I have always wondered why you have lines on your face. Not that I don't I like them… I find them… attractive… but why?"

Sesshomaru chocked when he felt her hand on his cheek. What was she up to?

"Well the lines are supposed to signify a demons class. There are four classes. A demon can have either no lines, one line, two lines or three lines." He glanced at her to see if she were board but she stared, nodding and smiling in content. So Sesshomaru continued. "No lines would be a demon hunted down by Demon Slayers like your friend. One line would be a demon that is just a commoner. A lot of the demons at the occasion were just 1rst class. Now I…" He said lifting his hand to put it on Kagome's whose hand was still at his cheek. "…I am a second class demon. The Lords are all second-class. And finally, for the rarest of them all, there are third class demons. Third class demons are only bred. They are the strongest and are formed only by a couple of second-class demons. It's very rare though."

"Ok," Kagome started still smiling but liking the change of mood. "I have a question… how come we couldn't see the 1rst class demons lines at the party? "

"That is because, the lines can appear anywhere on the body. Mine just happened to be on the face."

Kagome smiled covertly once again. Kagome lowered her hand and raise the side of her nightgown just to the top of her thigh. Near the middle of her thigh there were two lines. Sesshomaru watched and choked again. Kagome let her nightgown fall back down loosely.

"So I'm a second class demon. Pretty good for someone who used to be a human huh?" Kagome purred softly, rubbing her thigh near Sesshomaru's. Finally realizing what she was doing Sesshomaru grabbed her wrists and in a second had her on her back on the bed.

"I'd ask you not to play with my desire." He growled softly.

"So you do have desire now don't you… that's an emotion." Kagome boldly whispered.

Sesshomaru growled. "Don't play with me."

Kagome grinned playfully and pulled Sesshomaru's head down and kissed him. Sesshomaru allowed her to do so but tried to pull away when he thought of himself pushing Kagome to do something she didn't want to do. But before he could remove his tongue Kagome caught it mischievously with her teeth. Finally she let him go and whispered into his ear. "Then don't play with me."

Sorry but the one before this one was a lot longer and so I can hope it'll make up for the shortness and uneventful ness of this one. And besides. We did need this chapter for information. We got to figure out about Sesshy's mommy and now we know that Kagome and Sesshy had sex! Lmao…

"I'd ask you not to play with my desire." He growled softly. (Aw he does have desire! Cute! Sorry, but I only found one quote and it's not that good…in a way it's a crappy chapter and a good chapter.)
