*I OWN NOTHING*
Please enjoy and reveiw.
Kagome could almost hear her jaw hit the floor. For a moment she thought her eyes were going to pop out of her head. DID HE SAY HE'S IN LOVE WITH ME? This has got to be a joke it has to be Kagome thought. None of this makes any since, if Sesshomaru loves me than Why did he pretend to hate me all this time? As the uncomfortable silence dragged on the agonizinig pain grew in his heart.
Sesshomaru turned away "You may leave if you want."
"Why me...? Why do you love me?" Kagome asked still reeling.
Sesshomaru was taken aback without thinking he took a step toward Kagome. Then before he knew it Sesshomaru was holding her in his arms "Kagome" he whispered. "Are you afraid?" She shook her head starring into his golden eyes. Sesshomaru smiled, "Kagome you are smart, beautiful, strong, and kind only a fool wouldn't love you." Before Kagome could respond he leand in to kiss her as soon as their lips touched Kagome felt like she'd been hit by a bolt lightning. His lips and hands were so soft and warm that Kagome almost cried. She'd never felt anything so intense.
For a few blissful seconds Kagome felt at peace ... safe a step away from happy. Then Kagome reluctantly put an end to it and broke free from his arms. Shame was in her eyes Kagome wasn't strong enough to meet his gaze. "Forgive me...I'm not the person you think I am ... I'm sorry" lump was forming in Kagome's throat so huge she could hardly breathe she needed some air. She was dizzy with confusion. Run she thought I'll find somwhere I can be alone. Maybe I will be able sort everything thing out then.
So Kagome ran. "WAIT KAGOME WAI-" Sesshomaru cried out sadly she was gone.
The world passed by her in a blurr Kagome was running faster than she ever thought possible, until she fell to her knees gasping. It was at that moment she relized where she was. In the middle of the forest with sun shining and birds singing without warning tears began falling from her eyes. "Lies... she sobbed. "Everyone says they care, that they'll never let you down. Before you know it they've forgotten you..." her voice broke.
Sesshomaru found Kagome by following her scent he what other choice did he have? Why did Kagome runaway? What had he done wrong? He found her knees, Kagome was tuned out to the world around her that she had no idea Sesshomaru was there until he put his hand on her shoulder. " Kagome ?" he asked with a great deal of sadness. She looked at him, her face stained red from tears, her eyes blood shot. Then her gaze met the ground Sesshomaru's heart was breaking he no idea how to console Kagome. He got down on his knees in front of Kagome he stayed there not moving an inch waiting for her to speak. Or meet his eyes but she never did, even after Kagome ceased balling she began shaking like a leaf not making a sound.
Sesshomaru had no clue what to do or say, he was about to walk away so she could have some time to herself however before could he heard her say something under her breath something he would not have heard if he were human "If you knew the truth... you would not love me."
Sesshomaru froze when this reached him "Kagome how could you- why- why would you think that? That's not possible."
"Oh, no" she laughed bitterly. "What if I told you I slept with your brother."
