The Witch- Tree Branches and MidNight Kisses

I don't own Inu Yasha or any of the characters but I do own the character I put in the story but I don't own her powers the people that invented Charmed do.

HEY! This is chappie nine for those of you who can't count( im just kidding! i luv you all i didnt mean it! lol ) The authors note was NOT chapter nine, I repeat the authors note was NOT chapter nine!

By the way, I am not a lemon writer. The farthest i go is making out. Got it? (Not trying to b mean, being firm! dont hate me! plzz)

Inu Yasha: WE GET IT!

Okay then fine! hmph.

Inu Yasha: Could ya hurry up and start the freakin' story!

Hold your horses!

Inu Yasha: Wha...?

Its an expression. --;

Inu Yasha: Feh, Whatever.

Anywho! On with the 'freakin' story' as he calls it

RECAP

"INU YASHA! Why were you listening to our conversation!" I screeched at him. He tried to get up but the rosary glowed brighter.

"DAMMIT I JUST CAME TO GET YOU BECAUSE KAGOME WAS WORRIED! I DIDN'T KNOW THAT YOU WOULD BE TALKING WITH MY BROTHER!" He yelled, trying to pick himself up from the ground.

"Well-I-wha-grr!" I stuttered. I didn't know how to respond. I put my shoes back on and turned to the taller of the two brothers," We could finish this later?" It was more of a plead then a request. He nodded curtly and I walked back to camp, dragging Inu Yasha behind me.

END RECAP

KAG POV

"I wonder what's taking them?" I said. I looked at Sango. The sun was setting and I was getting worried.

"What is Inu Yasha couldn't find her? Or if he got attacked or something. I hope they're alright." The little worry knot in my stomach was growing bigger and bigger by the minute.

"Calm down Kagome, I'm sure they're alright." Said Miroku, who was absent mindly munching on a peice of bread.

"Yes, I'm sure they're alright. Inu Yasha is too stubborn to give up. If he hasn't found her yet then he probably will find her soon."

"You're probably right, I shouldn't worry so much. I mean they can both defend themselves, right?"

"Yes, Inu Yasha has Tetsusaiga and Selena is a witch. They're probably on their way back now." Miroku said, finishing the bread and going for some ramen. Kagome slapped his hand and he looked up at her witha hurt expression playing on his face.

"Not, until they get back Miroku!"

"But-"

"NO BUTS!" Sango and Kagome said together and the lecher recoiled in fear for his life.

SEL POV

I walked quickly with Inu Yasha being pulled by his hand behind me.

"COULD YA HOLD ON FOR A SEC!" He bellowed. I stopped walking and dropped his hand. I turned to him adn crossed my arms over my chest and tapped my foot impatiently.

"Well?" I said expectantly. He was rubbing his wrist. Apparantly, I had left a bruise. He looked up at me and cocked an eyebrow.

"What?" He said sounding irritated.

"Explain." I said.

"I did!" His expression turning to irritation to anger.

"Saying that you went to get me because Kagome told you to is not enough. I want to know why you listned to the conversation instead of just grabbing me and going? I know you've done it before." I said, ctill tapping my foot.

"Would you cut that out? Its getting annoying!" He growled.

"Not until you tell me!" I said my voice just as fierce as his growl. He looked down and chuckled lightly.

"You remind me of Kagome when she first came here." He said, shaking his head, still chuckling. This caught me off-guard and I stopped tapping my foot and stared at him. He looked up at me.

"What are you staring at?" He said, rather rudely. I snapped back to reality.

"Nothing... lets go, the others are probably worried." I turned and walked towards the camp.

"Hey... HEY WAIT UP!" He shouted and walked behind me.

INU POV

"Ahhh... Ramen!" I said as I slurped the delicious noodles. The others were looking at me weirdly, but I didn't care. I had my ramen and I had Kagome. I was pretty content at the moment.

I looked up, having finish my bowl of ramen. Sango wans Miroku were sitting together and eating. Snago was eating gracefully and Miroku was... not.

Shippo had finished eating along time ago and was asleep next to Kirara.

Selena was eatting gracefully too but she seemed to be thinking to herself the whole time, keeping her eyes closed and her back straight.

"I wonder if thats how everyone in her family eats." I tilted my head as I thought and my ears went flat on my head.

I shook my head and looked Kagome. She was eatting like Selena, but if you ask me, she looked better doing so. Her black hair shimmered in the moonlight and the shadows the the flickering fire created moved across her ivory colored face. It amazed me how perfect her skin looked, it was flawless. I didn't care if she looked like Kikyo or not. She was beautiful in her own way. Not Kikyo's.

SEL POV

After dinner, we separatd from each other mostly. I sat under a tree, reading a book. Kagome sat in a tree, on a branch with Inu Yasha. Sango and Miroku sat near the fire, talking quietly. I could see his hand moving towards her and feared the worst but instead he put his arm around her shoulders. Which I could tell surprised her as a wave of astonishment came from her. They were still talking when she leaned her head on his shoulder.

"They look so cute together." I thought, creening my head to see if I could hear what they were talking about, but instead I picked up on Inu Yasha's conversation with Kagome.

"...looked like she wanted to jump up and smother him."

" Are you serious? How bad was she blushing?"

"Pretty bad. Her face looked like a tomato."

I stood up, the book dropping to the ground. My hands clenched at my sides and I looked up at the pair, a vein popping out on my forhead. My face however, had the expression of sugary sweetness written all over it.

"And what, may I ask, are you two love birds talking about?" I asked, my voice dripping with sugary sweet venom. They looked down at me.

"Uh... nothing!" Kagome said quickly.

"Don't lie Kagome, we were talking about how you were making goo-goo eyes at my brother." Inu Yasha said.

"WHAT?" I exploded, I took a deep breath and-

"SITSITSITSITTSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSITSIT!" I yelled at the top of my lungs. The tree branch broke and the two of them fell from it. I froze Kagome in mid air as Inu Yasha hit the ground and dug a hole atleast 4 feet in.I moved Kagome closer to the ground but away from the dig-site with my powers and un-froze her. She landed on her feet and hid behind Sango.

"Boy, shes angry." Kagome said.

" I swear I can see the smoke coming out of her ears." Miroku said. Sango, who was hiding behind Miroku, nodded.

Inu Yasha got up from the hole and stared at me.

" You listened to my conversation, then you tell everyone. Have you ever heard of a 'SHUT UP" Filter? Men do not have one obviously. Its when you're brain registers that you about to say something STUPID and stops you from saying it!" I screamed. He looked at me, puzzled at what I had just said, and angry that I had sat him so many times.

"Its not my fault you were talking to my brother , I just happened to come upon the conversation and stayed quiet!" He yelled.

"I can't believe you did that Inu Yasha! Even you know what privacy means!" I shouted.

"I TOLD YOU I WAS COMING TO GET YOU!" He bellowed at me. I crossed my arms and glared. He glared back. The others were looking on like they were watching a tennis match, waiting to see who would serve the ball.

"Sit" I said and turned my back to him with my nose in the air. I "hmph"ed and sat on teh log next to the campfire. By then it was sunset and the campfire was lit.

Inu Yasha hit the floor and groaned loudly, then he said, " you only sat me because you didn't have anything to say." He snickered and I turned to glare at him.

"Inu Yasha, maybe you should leave her alone." Kagome said, making herself the peacemaker. She sweat dropped when he glowered at me and I kept glaring at him.

He got up and was about to walk over when Kagome grabbed his arm.

"Lets go for a walk Inu Yasha." She said cheerfully. She pulled him into the forest and put his arm around her shoulder.

KAG POV

I put his arm around shoulder and noticed he was looking at me weird.

"What?" I said. He blushed and looked away.

He pulled me closer and we came upon a clearing with a rock in the middle and I sat down. Inu Yasha sat down next to me and I sighed and put my head on his shoulder. He placed his cheek on my hair.

"Your hair smells like strawberries." He said. ( I don't know what shampoo she uses so bite me lol jp)

I looked up at him and blushed.

It amazed me how he could go from insulting and rude to tender and sweet in the . I guess thats what I like about him.

He looked down at me and then put one of his hand on my cheek. A burst of warmth erupted under his touch. I put my hand on his kimono top and did something I knew he wouldn't expect. I pulled him towards me and before he could say anything, covered his mouth with mine. I could tell he was surprised because at first he didn't respond but when he did, he pulled me closer. I wrapped my arms around his neck and pushed myself into him, making sure to get as much body contact as possible. We fell off the rock and landed in teh grass with me ontop.

As we got farther into the make-out session ( I told you! NO LEMONADE TODAY) I felt his hand go up my shirt. I pulled away and heard him grunt in disappointment. I looked down at him.

"Inu Yash-" I started.

"Its okay, I get it, you don't want to go too far." He said quietly. I nodded and and smiled slightly.

"But..." I said, and a glimmer of hope shot to his eyes, " I didn't say we could stop what we were doing." I said with a devilish smile. He smiled back and turned me over so that I was on the ground.

"Hey!" I said playfully.

"Its easier this way." he said chuckling. Then he kissed me again and the world went hazy.

SEL POV

I sat near the fire reading my book. Miroku and Sango were still talking, but not too loud.

Then, "PERVERT!" Sango said and slapped him so hard that he fell off the log. I looked over and laughed. Sango was red in the face and had an agiatated look written all over her face. Miroku was rubbing his cheek, while on the floor with his leges still ont eh log with his feet in the air. He had a pout on his face and was looking at Sango. They both loved each other and I could feel it, big time. I turned away and concentrated on my book.

Suddenly, i had the feeling that I was being watched. I looked up and closed my book. Miroku and Sango were arguing softly because Shippo and Kirara were sleeping. I stood up and walked to where my watcher was. I stepped into the forest and stared upward.

"So soon?" I asked Sesshomaru( like you didn't know it was him?).

"I was bored." He said. I smiled and he looked forward.

"Not really forward with his feelings is he?" We walked for a bit then we came to the clearing we were at before. I sat on the rock. and he stood next to me.

"You know..." I started and he looked at me," Its a big rock." I scooted over and pat the rock next to me. He looked at it as if contimplating if it were safe. Then he sat down. His leg brushed against mine and i blushed, looking away towards the trees. he looks forward and i look back to the river when my cheeks cool down. I take my shoes off and put my feet in the cool water. He watches and I look at him.

"What, you never put your feet in the water before?" He shook his head. I gaped at him.

"Well why don't you give it a try, it feels good." I encouraged him. He looked at me.

"What? I won't bite... much" I said with a snicker.

He looked like he was about to smile, but turned away and started taking off his shoes. When he finished he put his feet in the river.

"You're right," he said while looking up at the moon," This does feel good."

"I told you."

"So you never answered my question." He said, looking down and back at me. I looked up at him.

"Would you repeat the question. I kinda forgot... being mad at Inu Yasha and all..."

He chuckled lightly," Why do you blush everytime I am near you?" He asked.

"Oh... That question... well... uh..."

"Is this what you consider talking?"

I blushed, shook my head, and looked down, "Its just that that question caught me off." I said looking up. His face was inches from mine. I was blushing redder than a tomato and thank god he couldn't see it because his shadow was covering my face.

" I don't know why..." I said quietly.

" I don't know why... but I'm drawn to you somehow." He said in a low voice, so low that I almost couldn't hear him.

"Really...?" I said. The word almost came out as a squeak. He was getting closer and I wasn't drawing away. I closed my eyes lightly. Soon I felt a slight warm on my lips. My eyes shot open to see Sesshomaru's face extremely close to mine.

"He's kissing me!" I pushed forward slightly and our lips came together more firmly. I felt a hand snake around my waist and pull me closer. I wrapped my arms around his neck.

" I barely know him... But it feels so natural..."

A rustle in the woods made him pull away. my arms fell from his neck and he stood up. He slipped his shoes back on. Shippo walked out of the woods, looking wide-eyed.

"Uh... Shippo what are you doing up?" I asked.

" Miroku and Sango were sleeping next to each other and I was alone and came to find you because I smelt you near..."

I stood up and put my shoes on.

" I have to go..." I said looking down, my mind still reeling from the kiss.

"Thats understandable," He said, looking at the moon again.

"Yeah... well... bye." I walked towards Shippo and I felt a hand grab my arm and I was pulled back to Sesshomaru. I turned and he kissed me again.
