Chapter 8: Stop Crying
Kagome sat at the edge of her futon, eyes downcast, her posture showing weariness.
The great taiyoukai was standing before the ningen, staring down at the sad figure.
"Kagome." He said quietly. Sesshoumaru finally kneeled until his own eyes were level with Kagome's.
"What are you going to do now?"
Kagome returned the gaze, her usual cheerful eyes were filmed.
"I dunno." She answered honestly. "I wish Inuyasha hadn't arrived. I wish Inuyasha wasn't here. I wish that Kikyou was never a influence on Inuyasha! I wish --"
Sesshoumaru placed a claw on her lips. Though his face was stoic, his eyes showed more.
"Kagome, we all wish for things, but they rarely come true."
Kagome turned away, her shoulders sagged dramatically and her voice was barely heard.
"I know..."
Sesshoumaru sighed silently, his own feelings stirred as Kagome's.
'Damn Inuyasha. Why did he have to hurt Kagome so?'
Sesshoumaru flinched as he smelled tears mingled with Kagome's loving scent. He reached out and placed a hooked finger on her chin, forcing her gently to look at him in the face.
"You're welcome to stay as long as you wish. I know Inuyasha's been a jerk to you. You deserve better."
Kagome shook her head sadly, a wan smile at her lips.
"Arigoto Sesshoumaru-sama." She replied. The miko sniffed, leaned forward, buried her face on the fluffy boa thing on his shoulder.
The usual hard-cored youkai wrapped a comforting arm around her, patting her back soothingly.
"You don't need to thank me. But.." Sesshoumaru paused. "Please stop crying."
Kagome lifted her head in surprise.
"Why?"
Sesshoumaru shook his head and pushed her head softly back on his shoulder.
"Because the tears ruin your sweet scent." He answered quietly. The miko stiffened slightly, but relaxed instantly.
Though unseen, the youkai could sense a small smile grace Kagome's lips. The scent of new tears stopped, and Kagome's alluring scent gradually returned.
"Arigoto Sesshou-kun..."
