Alright I read your reviews and their really encouraging so I'm working on this chapter for you guys. Someone told me that Sesshoumaru is too ooc and they would like me to show more of his regular personality. Well I will in the next chapter. Or at least I'll try. For right now I want to bring them a little closer. And I can't have his cold façade ruining the moment. So if you can just sit tight I'll comply with your wish. I want to thank all of you guys for reviewing it means a lot to me. Again if you ever want a story that you can't seem to find give me a summery and I'll to my best to bring your idea to justice. Now enough rambling on to the story. Bet you all can't wait to see wat happens to Inu huh?
It was way past noon when Kagome came out of her office. The place was still a mess as she directed. She walked over to the room that held Inuyasha. Moro and Shang stood at the door to act as guards. "Is he in there?" Kagome asked. At there sleepy nod Kagome ruffled there hair. "Go to sleep guys I'll take it from here." Kagome said. Shang nodded suppressing a yawn and followed his sister to his futon.
Kagome watched as they left and got an evil look on her face. "Oh Inuyasha come out to play." Kagome sung. She made a puppet that looked like she did when she was little and told it to go in the room. When she heard a scream she knew Inuyasha was terrified. "What the matter Inuyasha? Are you afraid of a little girl? I'm shocked what happened to the great and powerful Inuyasha I heard about." Her smaller version taunted.
Kagome stifled her laughter and made a small spider and told it to go in the room. As soon as it was in she made her younger self disappear and made the spider grow. After a few minutes of scaring Inuyasha shitless Kagome walked in. "So Inuyasha can you tell me why my stuff was all over the floor and some paint on my walls?" Kagome asked. "Well uh you see um." Inuyasha stuttered.
"Inuyasha I'm waiting." Kagome said. "I was bored and decided to rummage through some of your things?" Inuyasha offered as a pitiful excuse. "Strike one try again Inu." Kagome taunted. "Um I uh was looking for something that I left here a while ago." Inuyasha provided. "Try again." Kagome said. "Alright I was still mad so I decided to mess up your palace a little." Inuyasha said.
"A little! Inuyasha do you know how stressful it is to be a ruler of a land. It's very stressful. I have to deal with my lands and the little tiny problems that occur! I just got back from a long and boring ceremony then I had to deal with more paperwork concerning my lands and alliances with other lords! Then I come home to see my house a wreak! Oh no you have pissed me off royally! You are going to clean every article of clothing on the floor by yourself then fold them. You then gonna take this tiny brush and you are gonna clean my walls and floors. You are not to stop unless it's for food or you need to use the restroom.
"Sakura will be watching over you to make sure you do it right." Kagome finished. Inuyasha's ears were plastered to his head by now. Kagome stormed out of the room and ran to the lake. She sat there looking at the water playing with the koi fish that came to see her. She heard the bushes rustle and looked behind her. Sesshoumaru walked into the clearing and stared at her.
When Sesshoumaru saw Kagome he felt bad she had all this pressure on her shoulders and it showed. Her shoulders were slumped her eyes were tired and her hair was a little dull. Sesshoumaru walked up to her and sat down behind her. "You seem tired?" Sesshoumaru asked. "Just a little bit. Sesshoumaru how am I going to deal with finding a mate so soon? On top of that I have a rowdy hanyou that is bitter because I killed his favorite pot. I also have my lands to deal with." Kagome said.
Sesshoumaru didn't respond he just turned her around and moved her hair aside and began to massage her shoulders. "My god Kagome you are stressed." Sesshoumaru said at her tense shoulders. Kagome rolled her head to the side as her shoulders relaxed under Sesshoumaru ministrations. Once her back was free of knots Kagome leaded back into his chest. Sesshoumaru brought her up to sit in his lap so Kagome's head rested in the crook of his neck.
"I'm so tired." Kagome said yawning. Her eyes were closed and her nose was buried in his neck as she breathed in his scent. "Go to sleep then. I'll wake you when it's time to go to dinner." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome nodded and soon drifted off to sleep.
Kagome woke up to a familiar scent of pine and sandalwood. She also heard a soft voice calling for her. Kagome smiled 'Sesshoumaru.' She thought. She opened her eyes to see two amber orbs staring down at her. "Wake up Kagome its time for dinner." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome wrapped her arms around his neck and buried her face in his neck once more. "I don't want to I'm rather comfortable where I am thanks." Kagome said softly still waking up from her little nap.
Sesshoumaru chuckled and picked her up bridle style. "Well you might not be hungry but I am." Sesshoumaru said. He walked with her in his arms to the palace. Once they got to the door of the dinning room he set her down. Kagome yawned and walked with him into the dinning room. Taking her place at the head of the table with Sesshoumaru to her right Kagome began to eat as did everyone else. "Inuyasha I trust that you have made at least some progress in the cleaning today." Kagome said.
"Yea my fingers are still wrinkly from washing all your clothes." Inuyasha grumbled from the very end of the table. "Well you shouldn't have made a mess." Kagome said. "Mommy where were you today?" Shippo asked. "I was at the lake taking a little rest." Kagome said. "Why?" She asked. "Well Rin and I missed you. It wasn't fun teasing Inuyasha since he had soap." Shippo said.
"Oh what did he do with the soap?" Kagome asked glairing at Inuyasha who was right now trying to sink as low in his chair as humanly possible. "Whenever I teased him he stuffed some soap in my mouth. Something about washing my mouth out so I wouldn't say stuff." Shippo said. "Oh really?" Kagome asked. Shippo and Rin nodded. "Well I'll have a little talk with Inuyasha later. Now eat your food." Kagome said. The children obediently obeyed there mother and continued to eat.
Kagome sighed as she lay in the lake clearing. She had punished Inuyasha to manual labor around the house and to take over a job a servant didn't feel like doing. She looked up at the stars and listened to the sounds of the night and the waterfall to her right. She was almost asleep when she heard footsteps near her. "If anyone wanted to find you I guess I should tell them to search here first." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome smiled, "Do that and I'll never get peace and quiet." She said.
Sesshoumaru lay down next to her and looked up at the stars as well. Kagome rolled over and rested her hands on his chest and her chin on her hands. Her upper body rested on his chest while the rest of her body lay next to his. "Sesshoumaru I'm worried." Kagome said. "About what Kagome?" Sesshoumaru asked. "About the future. I have to find a mate soon. Sesshoumaru I can't find someone I love in five months. I never would be able to even if I tried." Kagome said.
"Why is that Kagome?" Sesshoumaru asked staring at the stars. "I want only one man to be my mate but I know he would never want to." Kagome said. "A man would have to be an idiot like the one I call my half-brother to not love you." Sesshoumaru said. "He's not an idiot his quite the opposite. He's strong all youkai fear him. He is also kind but not many people know it. I'm afraid to tell him how I feel for fear of rejection. I would never want to be on the receiving end of his cold glare again. I don't think I would be able to rule my lands properly if I were rejected by him." Kagome said.
Sesshoumaru looked down at her and sat up moving her into his lap so he could see her properly. "As I said before any man would be a fool to not love someone like you." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome looked up at him and smiled. The moon illuminated his hair and eyes making him look like a heavenly being. He tilted her chin up and bent his head down. Kagome closed her eyes and met him half way.
Their lips met in a sweet kiss just barely touching as if asking if it were ok. Sesshoumaru then applied more pressure and crushed her lips to his. Kagome wrapped her arms around his neck and pushed herself closer to him as she felt him wrap his arms around her waist bringing her even closer.
A soft wind blew through the clearing as the moon illuminated the lake beside them making the clearing look heavenly and out of this world and into the next. The two pulled apart for lack of oxygen. Kagome smiled at him her fingers buried in his silver hair. Twirling the strands around her fingers.
"Tell me more about the man you want as your mate." Sesshoumaru said. "He hides behind a cold mask and is the envision of power. He rules the Western Lands with and iron fist never bowing to anyone. He is also loyal and trustworthy. He is also my best friend." Kagome whispered. For the first time in years Kagome saw a true smile show on Sesshoumaru's face.
He bent down once more to capture her lips. Kagome smiled and met him halfway. This time she felt his tongue licking her lips asking for entrance into her warm cavern. Kagome complied with his wish and without hesitation opened her mouth. He went slow searching every nook and cranny of her sweet cavern.
He ran his tongue over hers coxing it into his mouth. She shyly complied and explored his mouth as he had hers. The two broke apart once again for air. "Kagome would you consent to being this Sesshoumaru's mate?" Sesshoumaru asked. "Of course. I love you Sesshoumaru." Kagome whispered. "I love you as well Kagome." Sesshoumaru said. With that he kissed her softly on the lips and jumped up into a tree with her and fell asleep with her in his arms listening to the sound her breathing and heartbeat as well as the sound of the night.
Kagome woke up and smiled when she saw a sleeping Sesshoumaru. Of course she knew he wasn't really asleep he was just trying to trick her. She took advantage of this and traced his markings. "You know Sesshoumaru I just thought of something." Kagome said. Sesshoumaru didn't say anything but she knew he was listening. "We need to adopt Shippo and Rin formally. Rin is just a human and will die. And Shippo is just a child. Even if I say that he is under our protection he still will be harmed.
We need to adopt them formally so that we can protect them." Kagome said. By now Sesshoumaru's eyes opened. "Yes but that can wait until we mate so then we can rightfully say they have a mother and father. Now let's go. The children must be really bored without you. You know you have neglected them since the coronation." Sesshoumaru said. Kagome nodded and the two left.
Sorry it's so short but my muse sadly ran away. I can't remember who requested a kiss and a formal adoption of the kids but there you are. I'll add more once my inspiration comes back. I'm really sorry about the wait and I hope this can hold you until I come back. For those waiting on my other stories since I got writers block I don't know how to continue those but I will in time. Again I'm really sorry I can't update more. Thanks for reviewing tho I think because of all the reviews I got last time I wrote I gota burst of inspiration for this. I really apreciate it thx guys and gals.
