This one's short too…
Kurama shifted forms when they got back to the shrine where Kagome lived, and let Youko go talk to his…mate. Kagome jumped up and hugged him when he came in.
"Love…I must leave for a while…"
"What, why?" She looked…really unhappy.
"Well, you know how I'm linked with Shuichi?"
"Yeah…"
"I want to get out of his control, so we're going to find a few things that Koenma needs for his ceremony."
"I want to come."
"No, love."
"Are you trying to tell me what to do?"
"In this case, yes." He watched her brows furrow together. "Kagome, you know I love having you around, but I don't want you getting hurt. Please stay here? For me?"
"…Fine. But please," she looked up with pleading eyes. "Don't get hurt. Please don't leave me again."
"I won't," he promised. He leaned down and kissed her, and he would have stayed there all day were it not for Shuichi's impatient "he-hem," in his head.
Letting her go regretfully, he exited the room. Kagome turned and cried on her pillow.
