Title: how could you

Chapter: growing closer

Kagome stood there shocked. What has hurt Sesshoumaru? She thought.

Kagome ran into the castle with Rin. Rin was now crying. This was the first time Kagome saw Rin cry. This was the first time Rin cried knowing that Sesshoumaru was hurt badly. Kagome didn't know what to do. It was one tragedy after another. Kagome ran into the castle.

When Kagome finally got there she slid open the door and saw Sesshoumaru hurt and badly injured.

Sesshoumaru was lying in his bed sleeping but with pain.

Kagome ran her fingers along the scar. It seemed that his armor was almost destroyed. It was badly damaged and so was his body. Kagome looked at him with sorrow and pain. She looked at him because she cared for him. He was the one that stayed by her side when she wanted to go back to her family. He was the one that looked at her when she was reading and when she was playing. Tears were beginning to form in her eyes. Tears of sorrow. Tears of pain. Kagome tried to hide her tears but couldn't they were to strong.

"Will Sesshoumaru-sama be ok?" Rin sobbed.

Kagome forced a smile on her face. "Yes he will, Why don't Rin-chan go out in the gardens with Jaken and pick some flowers for Sesshoumaru-sama?"

"Hai" Rin said as she walked out of the room and ran into the gardens.

Kagome took another glance at Sesshoumaru. He looks so peaceful when he's asleep. She thought.

Kagome dug into her bag and found the thermometer. She put it in Sesshoumaru's mouth and went back into her bag. She took out her first aid kit and herbs that her grandpa gave her. She went into the castles kitchen and started brewing the medicine.

Sesshoumaru opened his eyes and smiled. He was awaken when Kagome slid the door open. He never knew that the miko that had always been with his brother had care for him. He had slightly opened his eyes when Kagome was in the room. He liked Kagome's scent. He liked how Kagome looked so calm when he was injured. He liked her.

"Crap how do you work this thing!" Kagome exclaimed as she tried to start up the stove.

"Need help Kagome-chan?" One of the servants said.

"Yes thank you!" Kagome said in relief.

Kagome knew she had to work quickly.

After she was done she took off her apron and took the medicine into Sesshoumaru's room. Phew I guess the brewing lessons that grandpa taught me paid off. She thought right before entering.

Kagome slid open the door and found Sesshoumaru fully awake.

"You aren't supposed to be up." Kagome sighed.

"So and your point is?" Sesshoumaru snapped.

"You're still injured."

"We yokai don't complain about our injuries we go on with it unlike you worthless humans."

"Hey! I was just looking out for you!"

"Well thanks but no thanks I don't want pity from a human."

Kagome ignored it and turned around to take to medicine from the table that she had placed it.

Suddenly Kagome heard a groan from Sesshoumaru. She ran over to him.

"You ok?" She asked concernedly

"Yea."

"What happen to you anyway?"

"Maybe if you would remove this thing from my mouth I can talk"

Kagome took the thermometer out of Sesshoumaru's mouth. She checked it. His temperature was above normal. Even for a yokai.

"Now you can tell me."

"I was fighting Naraku because he was about to make Inuyasha hunt you down. And kill you" Sesshoumaru continued as he drank the medicine that Kagome gave him.

"What the hell is this thing?" Sesshoumaru thought as told the story.

Kagome sat on a chair

"Are we here yet?" Shippo asked in dismay.

"Nope where not th- HENTAI!" Sango shrieked.

Sango was full with fury now. She took her hirikotsu and banged it on Miroku's head.

"Sango you misunderstood me." Said Miroku

"Save it houshi. I don't want to hear it." Sango said in anger.

"Baka stop fooling around. We need to find Kagome fast." Inuyasha said with annoyance.

"I'm not fooling around." Said Miroku

"He will never learn." Shippo sighed.

Kirara meowed at Shippo at the comment.

"I hope Sesshoumaru-sama will like these flowers I picked." Rin said as she sniffed the flowers.

Rin lit up a smile. She treats Sesshoumaru as her adopted father. She's always loyal to him.

"Better give these to Sesshoumaru-sama." Thought Rin

With that Rin ran off inside the castle to find Sesshoumaru.

"WAIT FOR ME!" a familiar voice called out to her.

"Hurry up Jaken-sama!" Rin shouted as she entered the castle.

"Oh so that's what happened" Kagome said in relief that thanks to Sesshoumaru Naraku was now dead.

"If it wasn't for that dam bastard my armor wouldn't have been broken." Sesshoumaru said in anger.

"Don't worry bout it toutosai will fix it."

Sesshoumaru smiled. He had never been loved by another person or yokai. Sure he was a demon lord but he was always coldhearted. No one understood him.

Kagome was shocked that he smiled. She never saw him smile nor laugh. He was always the one that smirked when trouble is coming and is always expressionless. All Kagome could do was smile back.

"Hold on let me check your temperature again." Kagome said as she took out another thermometer.

Sesshoumaru frowned but Kagome didn't see. Kagome took out the thermometer and stuck it in his mouth.

"You still need rest." Kagome said.

"Fine."

"But I need to clean these wounds with alcohol."

"What?"

"Don't worry this will sting a little but you'll live" Kagome said sarcastically.

Kagome took out some cotton and a bottle of rubbing alcohol. She put some on the cotton and gently dabbed it on Sesshoumaru's wounds.

Sesshoumaru smiled and drifted off to sleep.

Kagome couldn't resist but while she was cleaning his wounds and bandaging them she would take a quick glance at him and smile.

"Sesshoumaru-sama!" Rin said as she opened the door.

"Shh…" Kagome said as she cleaned up everything.

"Woops gomen nasai Kagome-chan" Rin said.

Kagome giggled "That's ok" she smiled.

"Kagome-chan did you bring candy?" Rin asked happily.

"Yea of course." Kagome said as she put the flowers in a vase near Sesshoumaru's bed.

Kagome and Rin left quietly as they both to went to get dinner.

"Wow a whole day past that fast." Kagome said as she was eating her ramen.

"Yup" Rin said as she was pressing a button that would spin the lollipop that she was eating.

"Ooo look at the pretty stars!" Rin exclaimed as she pointed at one.

"Yea that looks like a shape of a heart" Kagome said as she stared at the starry sky.

"Yea! It's so pretty!" Rin exclaimed.

The both of them sat on the balcony and watching and counting the stars all night. They may not have noticed but there behind the curtains there stood Sesshoumaru smiling.

So how was it? Please r&r I thought that there wasn't enough fluff in this chappiee :sniff:
