You wake up and your alarm hasn't gone off yet. Shessomaru is sprawled over the bed, sleeping on his back. You get up and quietly change the alarm clock setting to off, and rip the covers off of the bed! Shessomaru doesn't even notice, he just keeps on sleeping. You tiptoe over to your side of the bed and pick up your pillow.
Very quietly you creep back around to the other side of the bed and smack him with your pillow! You laugh as you do so, but the next thing you know the room is full of white feathers. As the feathers settle you see Shessomaru sitting up; his arm is through the pillow and a green glow is fading from his fingers.
You can't help it but to start laughing again. You drop down on your knees and hold your side with one hand while you grip the bed side table with the other. "Oh my god, that's too funny… I mean… tee hee… we have to get this cleaned up. Ha ha ha ha!" and at that you go into another laughing fit.
He doesn't laugh. "It's not funny. This is a huge mess you know." Shessomaru lectures you. You climb up onto the bed and say, still laughing, "I know, but it's still hilarious! I'll just buy another pillow today, I'll get it on my way home from school, so I'll be home a little bit later than usual."
He stands up and pulls feathers out of his hair, saying, "I'll meet you at the school then." You throw more feathers in the air and giggle, answering, "Ok! Oh, if you do that, I have to warn you; I want to tell Kagome today." Shessomaru must have gasped, for he started to choke on something. He coughed till his throat was clear and said, "I inhaled a feather. You want to tell Kagome! She's always with that half breed though, he'll find out for sure. Are you certain you want to do this?" You nod and stand up, "I waited till now because I wanted you to be with me." he nods, staring off into space, "Uh huh…"
You walk up to him and take his hand, "It'll be ok. Kagome wouldn't let Inu-Yasha do anything to me, and you already know how to battle your brother." he turns to you and says, "Don't ever call that disgusting thing my brother!" You're a little frightened and let go of his hand. You stutter, "o…ok...Shessomaru."
His eyes are steely and you swear his hair is a little on end, and that his claws are out. You look at him and he's obviously angry, then his mouth closes and his eyes get wide. He opens his mouth and shakes his head. Reaching out he grabs your hand, closing his eyes he drops his head. At but a moment he raises his head and blurts out, "Tabitha I'm so sorry, I should never have gotten angry at you like that. I'm sorry for scaring you... I'm sorry."
Even his abrupt, panicked apology kind of scares you, he seems so desperate to keep you. You know yourself that you'd never leave him, but he still seems to be worried about driving you away. You smile at him and step closer to him. You run your fingertips down his jaw, "It's ok Shessomaru. I'm not angry, and I'm not going to run away from you. Let's just forget about it, ok?" He sort of smiles and you kiss him lightly then walk out of the room. He sits down on the bed and puts his head in his hands.
You make a lunch and switch the loads of laundry, folding and putting away the clean stuff, which happens to be all Shessomarus. You gather up your books and stuff them in your bag with your lunch. You're going back to your room to get a clean uniform to change into after you shower and you see Shessomaru sitting on the bed, grasping his hair and mouthing what you think is cusses. You kneel down next to the bed and put your hand on his knee.
He tilts his head up and looks at you. He seems sad, his countenance is weak, and his eyes are shifting over your face. "Shessomaru, are you ok?" He shakes his head and closes his eyes.
He looks at the ground then closes his eyes and explains, "I could have hurt you Tabitha! First the pillow I destroyed, I could have put my hand through your chest. Then I was so enraged at being associated with that half breed that I might have… I don't want to think about it, but I can't stop thinking of it! I know that I can protect you from every one else, even if it costs me my life I'll protect you, but what if you need to be protected from me! I'm not like the guys you've grown up with in this era. I'm a killer, and I don't mind seeing blood fly for no reason. What if something happens and I can't do anything!"
What has caused this loss of confidence? Did something happen? You take his hand and kiss it, then look up at him. He opens his eyes and you gaze into them. You're not sure what to do, but you want to show him with all your heart that you trust him. With every fibre of your soul you try to portray your great confidence in him.
You ask slowly, "Why are you talking like this, Shessomaru? Is something wrong?" He looks at you and you think that he's not going to say anything, but then he drops onto his knees in front of you, holding your hands together against his chest.
He looks into your eyes and says, "I had a dream the other night, when I was at the old house without you. I dreamt that something was taking over me that I couldn't control myself. You kept holding onto me, crying and telling me you still wanted to be with me. Then I grasped your neck and held you above me against the wall. I brought my arm back, and my claws glowed green. You just stared at me with the tears flowing down your face saying, "I love you Shessomaru. I still love you!" And I could feel my heart breaking but I couldn't stop and I thrust my arm through your chest. I couldn't stop! I woke up in a cold sweat. It's because of that dream that I came late last night instead of this morning."
You're shocked. That wasn't quite what you had expected, but you are still glad that he told you the truth. Your mouth is open and you don't know what to say. You close your eyes and lean forward, so your resting with your head on his shoulder. He lets go of your hands and puts his arms around you, holding you close to him.
His arms feel like fortress walks around you, his heart beat is soothing and just the feeling of another persons flesh against you is comforting. You slip your arms around his neck and pull him towards you. You can feel his breath on your neck as you sit there in his embrace. Your eyes are still closed as you say, "Shessomaru, I trust you with all of my heart; I know that you would never hurt me, no matter what happens."
His chest rises as he takes a deep breath and lays his head on top of yours. You continue, "It was just a dream, it doesn't mean anything." He doesn't say anything, but you hadn't expected him to. You're not sure how long you stayed there in his arms, but you don't care how long it was. Eventually you let go and sit back. He opens his eyes and looks at you, "Are you sure?" You smile and say, "Of course I'm sure."
You glance at the clock then add, "I'm also sure I don't have time for a shower now." He smirks, "You feel pretty clean and you smell divine, so I think you can get away with it." You blush, "Oh… thanks…" He lifts a hand full of your hair and lets it slip through his fingers. "Anyways, you should probably get going."
You put your hands on his face and pull him into a kiss. His lips are so soft against yours and he's so warm. You let him go and say, "I really missed you." He smiles and lets his hand drift down your cheek to your neck, down your arm till he holds your hand, "I missed you as well." You stand up with him and then push him out of the room saying, "Well I can't go to school in my pyjamas."
You walk to school and don't happen to run into any one on the way, cause you left late, which is very rare for you. You get to your locker and Kagome says to you, "I thought you weren't coming! Oh well at least you're here now." You shrug, "It's just gym class." You find that Celina and Wakako are waiting for you two in the gymnasium.
Upon seeing you Wakako flings herself on you, arms around your neck, "Tabitha! I'm glad you're here, I thought maybe you caught something Kagome had!" Kagome gives her and look and says, "I'm not sick that often!" Celina looks over your shoulder and raises one of her eyes brows while Wakako retorts, "Right, that's like saying you don't have a birthday, Kagome." You can't help but nod and say, "You are sick quite a lot Kagome." Before you can continue the teacher gets the class organized and started.
It's floor hockey this time. You and Seyuki and Mark are all on the same team. Seyuki comes up to you and says, "Hey, you're here! I thought you were sick, like you'd been around kagome to much or something." You roll your eyes, "Why is everyone saying that?" Mark laughs, "Cause it's likely to happen!" You punch his arm, which he rubs and says, "You hit like a man."
Of course it's a difficult game. Your team is down by maybe three players because your team had more girls, which basically means less people, since girls don't play. You manage to pass Seyuki the sponge ball right before the end of the game and he scores the winning point, making the score 2 to 1.
"Yeah!" He yells and thrusts his arms up in the air. He runs up behind you and puts you in a head lock. Then he gives you a nuggy. You hate that above like everything, not only is it annoying but it screws up your hair. You bring your free hand up to his back and find rim of his shorts. You grasp it and yank them up as hard as you can.
Seyuki lets go and squeaks, "Ungh!" He walks kind of funny for a second then turns to you, "Tabitha, this is just cruel!" Mark is rolling on the floor laughing and pointing, "Tabitha that was awesome!" Seyuki manages to discreetly correct his underwear arrangement and kicks Mark on the floor, "Shut up or I'll pull yours over your head." Mark wipes and tear from his eye and stand up, still laughing a little. He puts up his hand and you give him five, laughing.
Seyuki glare at the pair of you as you lean on each other, still erupting with laughter. You manage to stand on your own and stumble over to him, saying, "Come on Seyuki, it was funny. We're even now, ok?" He gives you a questioning look then rolls his eyes and says, "Yeah, what ever. I'll see you in jazz band." Seyuki then walks to the guys change room, with his legs spread a little bit still. This of course sets you and mark off again and you can here him groan and you both erupt in laughter. Eventually you toddle off to the change room and shower.
In jazz band you don't really get to talk because you have a solo in a number, and the teacher decided to practice that song all class. The teacher keeps telling you to sing louder, because the orchestra is over powering your voice. You don't like to get to loud, because people will hear you screw up.
Eventually you get so fed up that you abandon all restraint and belt out your notes. A shining smile fills the teachers face as he conducts, but you don't see because your eyes are closed.
When the number finishes he starts to clap wildly and the rest of the class join in. Seyuki stands up and cheers, you blush and sit down, saying, "It wasn't that good." The teacher come up to you, that was perfect, I knew you could do it, that's why I selected you for that solo. Just remember to sing out and you'll be great. You nod and stand up, ready to go over it again.
By the time lunch comes around your day has been pretty wicked, and you're pumped. You're sure that you can tackle anything today, even telling Kagome about Shessomaru. The girls, who aren't in Jazz band with you and Seyuki are a little puzzled at your absurd happiness and ask, "What's got you so happy."
You briefly highlight your day as Mark and Seyuki come up and sit down together beside you. "She's being modest, Celina." Mark interrupts, "She assisted the winning shot in phys ed. after that we had Jazz band class and she blew us away when she sang. You know Mr. Eichit? He actually applauded her!" Wakako almost chokes on the milk she was drinking and says, "Mr. Eichit applauded you! I can't even get him to say hello or smile at me!"
You look at your plate and says, "Ya, well… I dunno." Kagome smiles broadly and says, "Tabitha, you never told me you could sing so well." You shrug as you scoop a spoon full of curry rice into your mouth. You speak while you eat, "I didn't think I was very good." Seyuki buts in, saying, "Did you know when she was young she used to compete? She even got a record offer, but her Grandmother said that she couldn't take it."
You whip your head and around and say, "Seyuki, shut up!" You decide it's high time to change the subject, you hate having that much of the spot light. "Celina! How did the Art Gallery like your pottery?" The attention is now turned to Celina and you sigh. She stutters and answers, "They, they said they liked it, and they're actually going to display some of it. The rest of lunch is pent talking about how great it is that Celina's art is being displayed.
Double Bio is pretty good. You had a test that you didn't remember was coming up, but you think that you aced it anyways. Most of the class takes about 2 and ½ hours to get it done, so you go get your other homework and work on that. By the time the class is over you're done all your homework, even the bio assignment that had been written on the board.
Mark leaves the class room with you saying, "That test was more like an exam, that was so long!" You are carrying a large stack of books and you say, "It wasn't that long and hard if you knew what you were doing. I finished so early that I managed to get all my homework done, I don't have to take anything home tonight." He glances at you and says, "Well aren't we little miss perfect pants!" You come to a hall where you have to separate and you say over you're shoulder, "No! I just wanted to get it done!"
You heave your books into your locker and grab your bag, and your wallet. Kagome comes over to your locker with her bag. She smiles and says, "It's a beautiful day outside, are you ready to go?" You nod, and say, "Yeah, but I'm not going right home. I have to buy a new pillow." She doesn't ask why but nods and smiles.
She links her arm in yours and starts to walk towards the door. "Where's Celina and Wakako?" You ask. "They got in trouble for eating in class, and talking to much so now they have to clean up the class room, and write lines. You laugh, "Of course! I should have known!" You exit the building and start looking around for Shessomaru. He's wearing one of the white dress shirts and a pair of black slacks. You notice that girls are starting to crowd around him and take pictures.
They giggle and compare them, but Shessomaru doesn't even glance at them. Once he sees you he doesn't look at anyone else. Kagome starts to drift away and says, "Ok, Tabitha, I'll see you later." You pull her back to your side and say, "Actually I'd like you to meet someone… and uh… remember we're in public, so don't freak out ok?" Kagome gives you the weirdest look and says, "Huh? What are you talking about Tabitha?" Because she's looking at you as you approach she doesn't see Shessomaru standing there. You keep walking and she looks forwards and gasps.
Shessomaru is about 3 meters in away from you now, but he doesn't move. You grasp Kagomes hand on your arm tightly, "We're in public kagome." You remind her under your breath. Her eyes are wide and you can feel all the muscles in her body are tense and her pulse is racing, "Tabitha, we have to get every one out of here before he massacres them." You stop but 2 feet in front of Shessomaru and Kagome is absolutely stiff.
You turn to her, still holding her there and say, "Kagome, this is Shessomaru, my boyfriend." She gasps and her eyes look like they're going to pop out of her head. She starts breathing faster and then she closes her eyes and goes limp in your arms. You slap her face and shout, "Kagome! Wake up! Wake up!"
Shessomaru crouches down to where you're sitting down on the ground with Kagome in your lap. He doesn't say anything but stares at you two. People are beginning to gather around more and you try to think of something. You pinch her with your claws and she flinches and wakes up. She opens her eyes to find herself staring at Shessomaru.
Her arms fly around your neck and you cover her mouth before she can scream. You whisper in her ear, "He's not going to hurt you, Kagome, I promise. Trust me Kagome, I never would have brought him here if I thought that he would even try." She thinks and then nods and you remove your hand from her face. She says, "Tabitha… you… Shessomaru… WHAT!" Kagome starts to spaz out and people realize she's ok and begin to disperse.
"Tabitha are you crazy! You can't be with him!" You cover her mouth again and say, "He's not like that Kagome, ok? Please don't yell anymore, you're going to attract people's attention." She calms down and after a bit she rolls her eyes and nods. You let her go and help her stand up with you. Shessomaru is already standing; he stood up as soon as she had woken up earlier. She's shaking and she looks at Shessomaru. He still hasn't said anything yet.
Seyuki, Celina, Wakako and Mark come running up behind you. Wakako gets there first and asks, "What's going on? We heard yelling." You laugh and say, "What are you talking about Wakako." Celina and the others arrive. Wakako notices Shessomaru and smiles, saying, "Hello! I don't think I've seen you around here before."
She then leans over and says, "Tabitha, who's this hottie? Do you know him Tabitha?" Celina whispers in Wakako's ear and they giggle together. Kagome seems to be able to stand on her own now so you walk over to Shessomaru. As you turn around to face the others you say, "Kagome, Wakako, Celina and Mark, I'd like you to meet my boyfriend, Shessomaru."
Wakako and Celina start to freak out (in a good way) and they start to chatter together, with kagome, although kagome just smiles and nods between the two of them. Wakako steps out of their little giggling circle to elbow you and says while looking Shessomaru up and down, "So, Where'd you get him, Tabitha. That's some pretty fine merchandise you have there."
You blush, saying, "Wakako! Shut up!" Mark is polite, as always, "Hi, I'm mark, it's nice to meet you." You look at Seyuki and he notices right away. He smiles and says, "Hey Shessomaru, long time no see." You glance up at Shessomaru and you nudge him. He heaves a sigh and smiles. Mark says to Seyuki, "You know him?" Seyuki nods, "Yeah I met him last Friday." Shessomaru then says, "How are you Seyuki? It's a pleasure to make your acquaintance as well Mark."
He looks down at you and says, "We should go now Tabitha." Mark looks at his watch and says, "Yeah, I have homework to do." Wakako, thrilled at being around so many hot guys, laughs and says, "We have lots of time! Stay a little while longer!" You know Shessomaru is running out of patience, he's really tence and he's not talking a lot. He doesn't like being around that many humans, they smell bad and he considers them stupid and inferior. "No, we have some shopping to do, but I'll see you tomorrow, ok?"
Mark waves and says, "Ok, see ya later, Tabitha. It was nice o make your acquaintance Shessomaru." Then he and Seyuki start walking. Wakako's boy instincts kick in as she sees to of the boys leaving and says, "Ok, whatever. Come on Celina lets go!" Then she links her arm in Celina's and they run after the boys.
You are now left with the silent Kagome, you can actually smell some fear in her still. She watches the others walk away until they are out of ear shot then turns to you and exclaims, "Tabitha, how could you bring Shessomaru here? He's a demon!" You interrupt, "So am I, Kagome!" She raises her voice and continues where you cut her off, "But that's different! Tabitha he's going to massacre this place! He loathes humans!"
Shessomaru speaks up and says coldly, "I am present, address me Ona!" She stops talking and stares at him, a frightened countenance about her. After a minute she turns her attention back to you. She swallows and says, "I trust you Tabitha, but are you srue you know what you're doing?" You smile and look up at Shessomaru.
He looks down at you and though he does not smile you can see that he is happy beside you. He reaches out and takes your hand, pulling you towards his side. You tare your gaze from his and answer, "I've never been more sure of anything in my life." While you say this Shessomaru continues to stare down at you, not in a creepy way, in case that's what your thinking, but in an entranced, "You're so wonderful." Kind of way.
As you smile at kagome she looks from Shessomaru to you and back again. Her eyes soften and she sighs, a smile forming on her face. "Alright, I think I understand. I'm happy for you, or I'll to be. This is still very difficult for me to get, but as long as your happy. See you tomorrow, Tabitha." She waves and walks away.
"That wasn't so bad, eh?" You say as you and Shessomaru walk down the side walk towards the Sears outlet store. He pauses for thought before he answers, "You have very interesting friends." You giggle and say, "You get used to them after a while." He takes your hand and squeezes it affectionately. You look up and him with a big stupid smile on your face. He has a small smile on his face and he looks at you lovingly. It was perfectly wonderful, like you knew he was. Kagome might be worried but you have no other thoughts but of how much you love him.
You get a big fluffy feather pillow and spot a beautiful duvet cover that would match your room perfectly, so you buy that to. He carries the bag for you and he remember, "Oh ya, I picked up all the feathers and threw them outside." You look at him and giggle, "Tee hee. I should have shown you how to use the vacuum before I left."
You smile up at him and say, "Thank you for cleaning that up Shessomaru, I appreciate that." He puts his arm around you and looks at the sky as you walk, "Well I am the one who made the mess." You lean on him while you walk and put your arm around his waist, running your hand up and down his side.
You soon reach your house, you obviously wouldn't have walked if it had been to far away. You tell him, "You have to get a new pillow case out of the closet in the hall, and put it on the pillow. I'll change the duvet cover while you do that." You point down the hall to the closet. He nods and walks way with the pillow. You quickly whip off the old duvet cover and take the new one out of the package. It's a plain hunter green one, your favourite colour.
You quickly stuff your duvet inside it and close it up. As you spread it out on your bed again Shessomaru come in and lays the pillow in it's white pillow case on the bed. All your pillow cases are the same, they are white with hand done embroidered flowers on the end that is open. You hug him, "Thanks!" then kiss his cheek and walk into the hall. There's sheets on the floor and pillow cases spread out in the hall. You laugh and say, "What happened?"
He shrugs and closes his eyes, with his head pointed up a bit, "I just didn't know where the pillow cases where, or well, WHAT they were. I just took a bit to find it and figure out what to do that's all." Most of them are still folded so you pick them up and put them back in the closet. You fold the rest of them and put them in there spots.
After that you toss the old duvet cover in the wash and switch the other loads. Carrying the basket of wet laundry you go out to the back yard. Shessomaru follows you and sits down on the deck as you begin to hang the clothing out to dry. "You seem to wash everything a lot. You bath almost every second day and you wash your clothing all the time. You're dishes are always washed dried and put away, and your floors are clean stone."
You smile and nod as you reach down to grab another article of clothing from the basket, "Yeah, now a days we've discovered what makes people sick. They're called germs and to get rid of them, or rather kill them, you have to clean everything. If things are sanitary you don't get sick or get infections nearly as often as people do in your time. People really like to be clean in my time." He nods. You finish the last piece of clothing and sit next to him on the board walk.
He leans back on his arm and looks at you, "Doesn't that take a lot of time?" You shake your head, "Nah, because we do it a lot we've come up with very efficient ways to clean everything. There is a huge market for cleaning supplies and such." You finish explaining. He sits up straight and puts his arm around you, pulling you to him. You shuffle over so you're sitting right next to him and kiss his shoulder before laying your head on it.
You close your eyes and he looks tenderly upon you. "You seem kind of tired." He says sympathetically. You nod and say, "I had a long day, but I enjoyed it so I don't mind." He kisses your head and smiles at you while you sit there. You fall asleep on his sword for a while, only like 15 minutes. You open your eyes and look at him, grinning.
He has been watching you the whole time. He's holding your hand with the arm that isn't around you. He smiles back at you and rubs his thumb across your hand affectionately. A slight breeze blows in your face, so your hair flutters lightly away from your face. You can't tell where his hair ends and yours begins, not that you mind or anything.
He lets go of your hand and places his on your waist. He pulls you towards him and you close your eyes. You feel his lips press against your as he slips his tongue into your mouth. You pull away a little, just to get your balance and he leans in towards you. His hands drift over your back, holding you tight against him. You unbutton his shirt and slip it off of him, with his cooperation. You lean backwards and he follows you. His hand slides down to your thy and he moves you over, so both of your can lie down on the board walk. He slips his other hand up the back of your shirt.
He stops kissing you and lifts himself off of you a bit so he can look down at you. "Is something wrong?" You ask and brush his hair away from his face. He smiles and shakes his head, breathing a little hard. He stares at you and says, "I just wanted to make sure that you were comfortable with this. Last time you stopped me when we were outside." You smile and giggle, "You're so sweet. Well, we're in my back yard so unless people can see through walls I think we're fine."
He blinks and looks at you, "Huh?" You roll your eyes and say, "It's ok, Shessomaru, you don't have to stop." He smiles and says, "Good." He leans down and kisses you quickly then moves his lips along your cheek and down to your neck. Each time he kisses you he presses harder, stronger. You can feel his muscles flex and his blood rush in his veins. Even though the sun is setting it's getting hot and your breath quickens.
You hear some footsteps before the gasp, but obviously Shessomaru didn't. He stops and looks up... You crane your head about only to see Kagome, her books on the ground and her face a flaring red. You sit up, pushing him off of you, and fix your hair. "Oh, uh, Kagome! What can I do for you? Did you need anything?"
Her mouth flaps open and closed then she blurts out, "Uhh… Homework! Biology! Help! I uh, I needed help with my biology home work and since your only a couple houses away I just walked over." She bends down and picks up her books and you look at Shessomaru. His hand is on his face, which is quite red. You place your hand on his other hand, not knowing if he's angry or embarrassed or upset.
You turn back to Kagome and answer happily, "Of course I can, I'll be right inside, make yourself comfortable!" She smiles and nods and scampers off. You turn back to Shessomaru and squeeze his hand, "Shessomaru?" You sing at him, not knowing what else to say. He looks up at you and removes his hand from his face. "Yes?" He asks and clasps your hand. "You alright?" You ask, trying not to sound concerned, as that would just insult him.
He shrugs and answers, "I just don't know what to do. I've never had an encounter like that." You laugh and answer, "I had guess that as I am the only woman you've ever been with." He smiles, "Yes, But I am very glad of it." He kisses you and then you stand up. he rises with you and you place one of your hands on his chest as you say, "I'm going to go inside and give Kagome a hand. Come inside when you've got your shirt on, ok?" At that you turned and walked through the patio doors. (that's right glass doors that go out to the deck)
You spend about 2 hours helping Kagome, but before you start, and before Shessomaru comes in she says, "I'm really sorry Tabitha." You shake your head and say, "No, no. It's ok. I mean we were outside." She smiles an awkward little smile and says, "Yeah I guess so, it was really weird, seeing Shessomaru there. Like he's sort of unfeeling, isn't he?" You shrug and say, "It depends on who the person is." She nods and sits down taking out a pencil.
You sit down next to her And she blurts out, "I'm going to the feudal era for the next 4 or 5 days, and, uh… Inu-Yasha will know something's up, he can always tell, even if I don't act weird or say anything. So, uh… should I tell him?" You look at her, not knowing just how to answer her. She stays quiet and stares at her papers. You stutter, "Uh… I dunno… I guess so, I mean there's really no way to keep him from knowing. Umm... we just have to make sure they don't hurt each other."
She giggles, "I don't think it'll be that hard for me, I'll just say sit. Tabitha how will you stop Shessomaru? He wants that sword more then the jewel!" You think for a minute, and say, "I'll think of something, but if he does attack you first then by all means let Inu-Yasha have at him, until we can get them both under control. They seem to be pretty well matched so I'm not worried about either of them killing the other before we can get a hold on them." She nods and agrees, saying, "That's actually really smart, Tabitha." You smile and thank her then start in on the work at hand.
Shessomaru come in but 5 minutes or so after that conversation. You leave Kagome for a minute to go and talk to him. "Hey, sweet heart, Kagome will probably be here for an hour or so. You can do w/e you want till she's gone. If you want anything don't hesitate to ask ok?" He nods and walks off to his bedroom.
You finally finish with all that homework, you did like 60 biology questions with her, it's a review for you but it's still a lot of work. She thanks you for your help repeatedly and walks away into the dark night. You've been in the kitchen the whole night and you've heard Shessomaru moving around, but do not know where he is.
You go into your room and turn on the light. Shessomaru is sleeping there, but awakens at the alighting of the room. "You're done?" he asks and sits up, leaning on the head board. You smile and crawl across your bed to sit beside him. "Yes we are. Kagome left and now I am going to bed." He nods and begins to take off his shirt. You look at him incredulously, "What are you doing." he smiles, "Well there isn't anything really wrong with me sleeping here is there? I've already done that a few time, you even asked me to stay last night."
You nod and answer, "Well as long as you only ever plan to sleep. You know that's all that's gonna happen here right?" He smiles and says, "Yes I do realize that, and that's fine. I'm perfectly content just being next to you." You blush a little and think And kagome says he's unfeeling. Oh, he's so sweet.
You smile and find some pyjamas, even though you don't usually wear them, you obviously have to wear them with him there. You slip under the covers and cuddle up next to him. He puts his arms around you and kisses your forehead. "I'll see you in the morning." He whispers and you both close your eyes. I didn't tell him that Kagomes going to tell Inu-Yasha… I really hope that we can stop them from killing each other. This could be bad, but I'll hope for the best.
