Part Four

Chapter 4

Kagome resurfaced and shook the past memories out of her thoughts. 'What's done is done, and there's nothing I can do about that.' The young woman concentrated for a moment and morphed back into her humanoid form.

'I guess I better bathe.' She sighed reluctantly and removed her clothes. She lifted a handful of water and blew on it softly. It shifted, and then took the shape of a sphere. Kagome let go of it and the sphere stayed suspended in the air with a soft white glow.

Kagome busied herself with the making of nine more of the glowing little globes.

Sesshomaru had been monitoring Kagome for a few minutes when he felt her aura alter. He stood and began to follow her scent. He was suspicious as to what she was doing, and was going to look in on his little prisoner for a moment.

He was about to reach the edge of the trees around the lake, and he felt her aura change again. He quickly hid all traces of his presence and leaped high into a tree where he could see the woman.

She was alone and appeared normal. His suspicions ebbed a bit. He looked at her more closely and found himself glued to her image.

Small globes emitting a white light surrounded her, floating in the air. She was bare and her fingers glided across the surface of the glassy water that reached her lower hip. Her wet hair clung sensually to her back and chest. Kagome's eyes were filled with sorrow and she sighed contentedly. The bright moonlight shone down upon her and gave her an eerily attractive glow.

Sesshomaru found himself wanting her, and he slapped himself mentally. Yet in his distraction, he had forgotten to keep his scent and aura subdued. This is when Kagome froze in her watery dance and snapped her head in the demon's direction. Immediately, she screamed, ducking into the water. The small orbs of light came together to form a large ball of water that shot towards Sesshomaru. It knocked him out of his perch in the tree and soaked him to the bone. He landed on the ground with a loud thump.

Kagome returned her dress to her body, and marched up to Sesshomaru. "What did you see?" she demanded. Sesshomaru only stared at her in a daze. Kagome huffed and drew the water off of both her and Sesshomaru and splashed all of it onto the demon lord.

Now, he was awake.

"What!?" He growled out angrily. He stood quickly and began walking back to camp. Kagome grabbed onto his shoulder.

"What did you see?" She asked again. Sesshomaru shrugged her hand off and began walking again. He remained silent until he reached the tree he was in earlier. He turned and looked her over before answering.

"I saw you in the water bathing. Now will you shut up and sleep?" He replied and scowled down at her.

"Yes." She lifted the water off of him and let it fall to the ground. Walking over to a tree, she sat at its base and leaned her head back. "But you still can't watch me bathe Sesshomaru."

A few days of traveling with Sesshomaru turned into weeks and finally became a month. Kagome and Sesshomaru were becoming friendly rivals. Though neither would admit they were. By now, winter was upon the two.

Wind from the north came down from the mountains and a blizzard blew through the Western Lands, forcing the two into a cave.

"Sesshomaru, how long do you think this storm will last?" Kagome asked after a few hours. She still only had her silky dress with no long sleeves. Her arms were wrapped around her self and she tried her best to keep warm.

"Probably through the night." He replied. He disappeared into the snow for a few minutes and returned with firewood. He set it down on the cave floor, and went to the cave entrance. There he moved a large rock in front of the entrance to keep out the cold. Kagome had lit the fire, and though she was still cold, she didn't sit near the fire for warmth. Sesshomaru was puzzled and voiced his confusion. Kagome told him it would dehydrate her if she got too close.

Sesshomaru sat down against the wall near the fire and watched Kagome until she fell into a fitful sleep. She was shaking violently, and her lips were blue.

The demon debated over whether or not he should help her. A small voice in the back of his mind told him he couldn't let her die. So, he stood and walked over to her. Picking her up gently, Sesshomaru carried Kagome over to the spot he had been in earlier and sat down with her in his lap. He wrapped the pelt he kept over his shoulder around them both and drew the woman into his arms.

'I'm going to hate myself in the morning.' He thought silently and drifted into a deep slumber.

When Kagome became conscience she felt something warm and soft under her. She cracked her eyes open a little and saw white silky hair. Her brows came together in confusion and she sat up. A pair of hands on her waist tightened and Kagome realized she was sitting on top of Sesshomaru. She tried to get up slowly but his arms wrapped tight around her waist and pulled her down against him again. "Sesshomaru let go of me." Kagome commanded and tried wriggling free of his grasp. It was no use; he had enclosed her arms inside his grasp. Kagome rested her forehead on his chest and tried to think. She tried wriggling free again but to no avail. So Kagome did the only thing she could think of that would surprise him enough to make him let go of her arms.

She kissed him.

It was only meant to be a little peck to distract him long enough so she could get free. But as she tried to pull away, Sesshomaru, still in the deep sleep, tightened one arm around her waist and brought the other up to her head to keep her lips where they were. 'Oh shit! What am I going to do now! The idiot!'

Kagome struggled to get away, but found it was useless. 'Maybe I should dehydrate him.' She thought. But she was never given the chance, because at that moment, the demon decided to distract her.

His tongue slipped inside her mouth.

Sooooo, do ya like this one? It may seem a little ooc but it's not really Sesshomaru kissing Kagome. It's his inner demon. Anyway, you'll probably hear from me more over the holidays. Baibai!
