The Sun and the Moon

by akinosora01

[Drabble Series] Like the sun and the moon, they were polar opposites; wasn't it natural for them to be together, then? A series of drabbles taking place at various points in Sesshomaru and Kagome's relationship.

Author's Note:

I really like the idea of Sesshomaru irritating/bothering Kagome on purpose, and showing it.

#3 – Smirk

"Kagome," Sango hisses at her one day, her eyes wide as saucers, "can't you do something?"

"I would if I could," she hisses back, biting back at curse while flinging a wild look behind her shoulder. Lounging against a tree sat the Western youkai lord, looking placid and perfectly bored while pinning citron eyes on her—she could feel the burning of his gaze on her—while Inuyasha sitting a few meters away, firmly on his haunches and growling non-too-quietly.

Kagome sighs as she pulls out cups of ramen for their lunch. This was going to be a long day.

Stupid youkai with their stupid courtship practices and their stupid possessiveness. Why he must insist on traveling with the group—accompanied by Rin, Jaken and Ah-Un—while declaring outright, in front of an enraged hanyou, that the latter was not fit enough to protect her, she doesn't know. While she had been able to avoid conflict by screaming a "SIT!" to subdue Inuyasha, she doesn't know how long the uneasy peace would last.

While she is busying herself preparing the ramen, she freezes when she sees a twitch of the youkai's lips—was that a smirk?—and stares.

This—this overbearing youkai was laughing at her!
