Shisui x Kagome
"Kagome!"
Turning half way on her heel, the young Higurashi released a squeak when she felt her feet leave the safety of the ground beneath them. Flailing for a moment, her hands trying to find something to hold onto, Kagome anchored herself to the arm wrapped tight around her waist. "Shisui!" As the Uchiha in question quickly spun her in a circle, making her dizzy in the process, she laughed and attempted to elbow him in the hopes of regaining her sense of balance once he relented. "Put me down, you idiot!"
His rich laughter caressed her ear, turning her face into a flaming mess, before he buried his nose in the wispy bangs near her temple. Secure within his clutches, never giving her the chance to realize her feet had steadied beneath her, Shisui lifted her chin and claimed the tiny noise that escaped her with his lips.
"Sh-Shisui!" Pulling away from the unexpected kiss with a gasp, Kagome could only shake her head in bewilderment at the breathy chuckle that the Uchiha gave her in response. "What's gotten into you?"
"We did it," he whispered in her ear. "Itachi and I… we did it."
Confused and somewhat thoroughly embarrassed by the sly glances they were getting from a few nearby civilians, Kagome had every intention of laying into him when she turned in his grasp. The thought quickly crumbled to ash when she truly caught sight of his disheveled uniform and scraped up appearance, though. "Oh my god!"
Shisui grinned when her hands lit up almost immediately to confirm that he was okay. He caught her wrist when she brushed her fingers along the edge of his eye, though, and pressed his cheek into the warm palm of her hand. Basking in the soothing healing energy that was targeting his retina for a moment, the Uchiha released a happy sigh and tugged her close enough by the waist that there was little separating them again.
"What happened to you?" Unconcerned with his sudden desire for affection as she fretted over him, the young Higurashi could only give him a slight scowl when he took the opportunity to give her another peck on the lips. She had half a mind to start tugging on his uniform to check for any other injuries in the hopes of embarrassing him in return, but quickly decided that he would probably only enjoy it and laugh at her afterward if she did. "Did the Hokage send you on another mission already? You just came back from the last one!"
The Uchiha shook his head at her, saying, "Something like that, yeah."
"And I guess you just expected me to heal you, since you obviously didn't go to the hospital like you should have," Kagome huffed at him. "I swear, Shisui, this is like an everyday thing now an—"
Cutting off the tirade before it ever began by placing his fingers across her lip, Shisui could only smile at the confused look in her sparkling blue eyes. Leaning in so that they were separated only by his hand, he whispered, "I love you," and watched as that lingering confusion was quickly replaced with surprise.
"S-Shisui?"
His fingers tugged on her bottom lip as he shifted his hand to cup her jaw, and a light laugh escaped him at how quickly her face darkened with the added attention. He hovered there for a moment, watching the way her eyes searched his own hooded gaze frantically, no doubt hoping he would repeat the declaration. His thumb brushing across the swell of her cheek instead, Shisui smirked a little at the quiet gasp that he felt against his lips once he finally swooped in to kiss her again.
The faint moan Kagome released was a well earned reward, in his opinion, as she tentatively followed his lead and wrapped her arms tight around his neck.
After all… it was not every day that he managed to successfully stop a coup alongside his best friend.
