"Ask me to stay with you." said she to he

he scoffed and said, "You shall stay with me."

she sighed and hit her head with her palm

she counted to ten just to remain calm

then she frowned at the offending hand

there just some things that he did not understand

"I don't have to do as you say Sesshoumaru."

He thought for a brief moment, "This is true."

'Would she really leave me?' he thought with dismay

"What is it that you wish of me Kagome?"

"What do you want?" said he to she

"I want your love." She replied quickly

his eyes widened 'What woman wants this?

Most women want a title, a portion of greatness.'

But Kagome was different, very different indeed

His love was everything and anything she would ever need

But sadly he thought, 'I have no love to give.

I haven't for as long as I've lived.'

"This Sesshoumaru does not know what love is." Said in such an arrogant air

that she turned and ran, and left him standing there.

He caught up with her, her scent filled with dread

He took a deep breath, "You misunderstood what I said."

"Not much room for misunderstanding." Said she to he.

"What is love?" he asked "Surely you can tell me."

"Love is an emotion, the best one, I've heard."

"To me, at present, love is but a monosylabic word.

Tell me what this emotion is, then perhaps I shall know."

She thought, 'its every emotion that you're afraid to show.'

"They are the emotions that you claim you 'do not posess'"

'It's for this reason you live your life in lonliness.'

"Love is an emotion you've never learned." She sighed

"Then you shall have to teach me." he replied
