She laid her hand on his chest. His breath came in rapid pants, his face sweaty, it looked as though he was having an inner battle with himself.

She was worried, that she couldn't deny. Not knowing why, but brushing it aside for now, Kagome moved a few strands of hair out of his face. They were in the ambulance riding at a fast pace to the hospital. A few medics were the only other people in the vehicle other than herself and Sesshomaru.

His amber eyes were no longer visible to her chocolate orbs. She sighed. They needed to get to the hospital soon. They had yet to tell her what was wrong with him and that pissed her off.

They knew and they weren't telling. She called Inuyasha when they were loading him into the ambulance. He was on his way to the hospital now, as was Naraku who chose not to ride in the ambulance.

She also called Sango, however no relation with Sesshomaru, Kagome needed someone to make sure she didn't do something she would regret later. One of the medics was staring at her.

She caught his gaze and she just was not in the mood. Her hand linked with Sesshomaru's, she glared at the medic. "What!" She snapped.

"Um, if I may ask ma'am, what is your relationship to Mr. Tashio?"

Kagome hesitated. "Fiancé." Was all she said before looking down at Sesshomaru's face. If he found out she said that, he would be so pissed. But she wanted to avoid questions at all costs.

The police wanted to question her as to what happened, but all honesty, she truly couldn't explain it. She was thrown into an elevator that went haywire and was saved by the person who threw her into it to begin with.

She gasped as she caught a glimpse of her finger. The medic caught her gasp and looked at her. "Is anything wrong?" He had a pen in his hand and she guessed he was writing a report on her being Sesshomaru's 'fiancé'.

She laughed nervously and held up her right hand. "Nothing." She had to remind herself to hide her left hand so that the medic didn't see that she was without an engagement ring.

As was Sesshomaru, but since he was in an accident, he had a reason not to be wearing one. For now at least.

They took a sharp turn and Kagome almost fell out of the chair that she was sitting in. Apparently they had arrived at the hospital, and the driver just wanted to make a grand entrance.

Surprisingly, Sesshomaru never once moved from his spot. The medics opened the door and started to pull Sesshomaru out, which meant she had to let go of his hand. She did so reluctantly.

He saved her, and now she had to, had to, help him recover from what ever was wrong with him.

She jumped out of the ambulance and followed the men inside, but when they took a left, she had to take a right to the waiting room. 'Great…more waiting.' Kagome rolled her eyes but continued to walk.

When she opened the door Inuyasha, who was sitting in a chair, looked up and immediately stood. He walked quickly over to her and enfolded her in an embrace.

"Are you alright?"

"Yes, I'm fine." Kagome wrapped her arms around his waist. Her head buried in his chest, she felt like crying. The incident from the elevator left her shaky and she felt like falling to the ground, she was so shaky. Finally Inuyasha let go of her and walked her over to one of the seats.

Then they waited.

OoO

During the time they waited, Sango joined them in the waiting room. About an hour after she got there, the doctor came out of the emergency room.

Kagome shot up. "Is he alright?"

He nodded. "Yes ma'am, he is, he only has a few bruises and a few burns from the fire, along with a fractured wrist, probably from landing on it wrong."

"That's all, can I go see him?"

"Yes, but first I need to explain a few things. He needs to stay bedded for a few days. And since you're his fiancé you should be with him." Kagome's eye twitched, but she quickly recovered as not to draw fake attention to herself.

Inuyasha looked shocked and Sango gasped. "What the hell…" Inuyasha was about to grab Kagome's shoulder and ask what the hell was going on, but decided against it and since the doctor spoke, maybe it wasn't such a good idea.

"Is there a problem?"

"Heh…no, not at all." She wanted to say, 'Yes there is something wrong! I'm not his goddamn fiancé!' But she decided against it, because that would make a scene.

"Good, then you need to watch over him and make sure his wrist is working properly throughout the week and hopefully there won't be any problems. He had no major injuries from the accident and is now conscious. You may see him."

"Thank you." Kagome said nothing to Sango and Inuyasha, and followed the doctor to Sesshomaru's room.

"What was that about?" Sango asked staring after Kagome.

Inuyasha scowled. "No idea." They were about to follow Kagome, when a nurse stopped them.

"Excuse me, but I think Sesshomaru would like some time alone with his fiancé." With that said she locked the door leading to the patient's rooms and resumed her post.

"Bitch…" Inuyasha muttered sitting back down with Sango beside him.

OoO

"Sesshomaru?" He acknowledged the nurse's presence. "You're fiancé will see you now."

Sesshomaru's eyebrow shot up. Fiancé? He had no fiancé. What the fuck was going on?

When Kagome walked in, things just got all the more confusing. "Fiancé?"

She laughed nervously again. "Uh…I had to avoid questions somehow…" She sighed and walked over to him and sat on the side of his bed next to his waist.

Sesshomaru was still confused and he hated being confused."Why are you here?"

She fiddled with her fingers nervously. "Well…I-I wanted to make sure you were alright."

"Why?"

"Because I care! Ok!" She was tired of questions, that's what she was trying to avoid. Sesshomaru stared at her, slightly shocked.

She cared for…him? That wasn't right. Then why was she always with Inuyasha and always staying with him, and always mocking Sesshomaru and always fighting with him? Why did she agree to go on the date with Koga?

She didn't even know the creep. "Then why…"

"I don't know Sesshomaru…I just don't know, alright?" He nodded. "Alright then, on to more important matters, I'm going to be watching over you for the next few days and we need to get a few things straight fluffy."

He raised his eyebrow at fluffy. She continued, ignoring his silent protest. "When I help around you're house, I don't want any lip, and I'm the one taking care of you, ya got that. You're going to continue with the show and you're going to like it." She stood and placed her hands on her hips.

"You can't tell me what to do." He sat up missing the warmth of her on the bed.

"Well excuse me for wanting to help the man that threw me into an elevator and-"

She didn't get to say more for she found herself pinned to the wall behind her. She struggled to get free.

"I saved you didn't I?" He seethed.

"Yes, after you realized that throwing an innocent woman into an elevator that's broke isn't such a good idea." He pressed down on hershoulders harder and she struggled to pull his hands away from her.

"You'll regret you're words."

"Really? Are you sure you want to hurt the woman you tried so hard to save?" A blow to the stomach. She had him and he let go of her, only a little bit. He wanted to rip her head off.

"Get out." Was all he said before Kagome slapped his hand away and started walking, no...stomping to the door. She opened it, and then turned back to him.

"Think next time before you almost end someone's life." With that said, she left, leaving him once again alone. And the bad thing was, he had to deal with her when he got home.
