She jumped when Rin entered the room. Rin noticed the pen and paper on the ground next to the huddled figure and the broken remains of what looked like a burnt cell phone.
"Kagome?!" Rin asked panicked. She went over to the shaking figure and bent down. Sesshoumaru walked into the room and cringed his eyes with worry at the scene that laid before him. They should have been there sooner.
"I'm sorry, what an awful guest I must be." Kagome stood not very steady on her feet, but Sesshoumaru leaped forward as Kagome's body sagged back towards the ground in a dead faint.
¤ Chapter Six ¤
Inuyasah had taken off the paint's tack and then placed her in a temporary stall while he went up to the house to follow Rin and his half brother. Sango stayed behind to wait for Miroku who had finally caught the rogue cattle and was now trying to scold it on the way back to the barn, the cattle who was munching on his sort lived freedom grass.
"Sango I'm gonna go see what's up at the house." She nodded when he started to walk off in that direction.
He walked through the kitchen door where Houjo was putting away dishes and toperwere. Kaede was mopping the floor. He walked through the dinning room door and into the living room where Sesshoumaru was seen walking down the stairs with an unconscious Kagome in his arms and a worried Rin following.
"Holy shit what happened?!" Inuyasha hurried over to the couch where Sesshoumaru was depositing her body slowly onto the cushions. Rin stood behind her head and fluffed a pillow.
"We found her cornered in her room, trying to stay awake, but she could barely keep her own eyes open." Rin said and Sesshoumaru pulled a phone out of his pocket while Rin grabbed a paper and pen out of her own pocket.
"What do you mean cornered in her room? By who? And what are those for?" Inuyasha walked closer peering down at the pieces of the phone.
"Not by whom. She was huddled in the corner of the room I mean, and her cell phone was across the way shattered as if she destroyed it, and these were next to her when we found her," holding the pen and paper, "I don't know what it means or what it's for but I'm sure it must be important."
"Okay but you sill haven't explained why she isn't awake now." He drawled.
"Fainted." Sesshoumaru said then, "Better keep her down here to keep an eye on her." He handed the pen and paper to Inuyasha.
Inuyasha looked down on the paper with a puzzled look at what was on it, 1-790-55... "What do these numbers mean?" Sesshoumaru left the room and went towards the bathroom nearby.
"Dunno, but obviously something had her spoked if she wasn't going to sleep the whole night." Rin said and plopped down nearby Kagome on the other end of the sofa.
"No shit sherlock, it probably had something to do with that stupid ex boyfriend of hers." Inuyasha stated and Rin nodded dully.
"Inuyasha, do not swear when you are in the presence of my fiancé." Sesshoumaru walked out of the bathroom holding up a cool washcloth to place on Kagome's head.
"Fuck fuck fuck a duck screw a kangaroo, sixty-nine a porcupine, orgy at the zooooo!!!!!!!!!" Inuyasha singing off and Rin giggling at Sesshoumaru's growl, "Alright, alright Fluffy I won't swear." Which only earned him another growl and the washcloth thrown in his face.
Sesshoumaru grabbed Rin's hand and pulled her out of the room with him. Rin said as she was being pulled through the door frame, "We'll be back later to check on Kagome, and I'll send Sango in soon." She grinned at Inuyasha's look of triumph over is half brother and with a final jerk she was gone through the doors of the house.
He sighed at looked down at Kagome who had dark circles under her eyes. Sesshoumaru had taken the damaged phone with him when they left, and he still held the paper and pen. He dropped the pen on the table and then folded the paper into his pocket for safekeeping and then preceded to sit on the sofa in the arch of Kagome's sleeping form.
She was moving slightly in her sleep whispering scared words at some unseen demon in her dreams. Inuyasha's brows drew together as he watched her sleep. He brought his hand to her forehead and brushed aside a strand of hair which seemingly relaxed her movements in sleep. He smiled and whispered down to her, "Hey I know you're sleeping and all but I wanted to apologize for last night, I didn't mean to be such a dick. I was just teasing though. Gotta admit you're fun to tease." He chuckled and then stopped suddenly when she moved slightly.
"But it's not fun to tease a poor helpless female." She whispered back, and stupid Inuyasha not realizing at first that she had heard him and had woken up was responding as if in a conversation.
"Yeah but that's what men do when they like..." And then realized she was indeed awake and he was just about to admit something veryyyyy personal. He blushed a little and looked away.
Kagome smiled from under the washcloth, "Apology accepted, dog-boy."
"Hey! Dog-boy!?" He took the washcloth off her head and held it in his hands.
"That's what you get for calling me wench." She grinned and looked around, "How did I get in here?"
"Sesshoumaru carried you down here after he and Rin found you. Oh! And I have your paper, but Sesshoumaru still has your phone." He handed her the piece of paper from his pocket and then rested his arms across the back of the sofa which of course had him leaning partially against her, "Wana tell me what's going on?"
"This would be the sixth time and no one has believed me yet, so why would you?" She signed and looked away.
"Keh, that's a tad unfair. Why don't you try me? You are with people who barely know you but care about you, especially Sango, so, how bout starting with those numbers there. And then maybe we can help you." Kagome glanced down at the paper thanking whatever unknown spirit let her still have the memory to remember what portion of the number that he had called from.
She sighed and turned towards him, "I'm sure Sango said something of why I came here to the ranch." He nodded at her words, "Well my ex is a bit of a..."
"Bastard?"
"Well psycho actually. I have a restraining order but... it doesn't seem to do anything at all. When I moved out at last it was because I had ended in the hospital from his latest attempt to beat me into a better girlfriend," Kagome paused when she heard Inuyasha growl lowly, "And I decided after that to go to the police and get a restraining order, but a lot of good that did. It was like he liked the challenge of the law. So he came after me at my new apartment, and then when I moved from there and changed my number and my location, even got a new phone, but this time I moved in with a co-worker. A really nice friend of mine named Ayame, and he found me there too. Luckily Sango contacted me inviting me out to her ranch for a vacation sometime, and it couldn't have come at a better time. So, I left Ayame's place, and we both moved this time. I couldn't risk endangering my parents, so I came to Sango's ranch, my last resort."
Inuyasha whistled in shock, "I was right."
"About what?"
"The bastard part."
"Yeah well..." he nodded for her to continue, "I don't know how but he found out my number again. I've been so careful, god, so careful. He didn't get my location this time. It takes 24 seconds for him to pinpoint where I am, but that's just pinpointing, he could find out what state or country within a lesser amount of time. He's gotten smarter too, each time he buys a phone from a different area, hence this." She held out the paper with the number, "I wasn't fast enough this time to remember the whole number but at least I remembered the area code. I need to keep these to remember what to answer and what not to answer." She looked then down at her hands which she didn't realize were white with her grip while telling this story, and the paper which was being strained between the two hands.
"Kagome," She looked up at his voice with was a little softer, "Don't worry too much about it k? You're in good hands here. We won't let anything happen to you." He smiled a small smirk at her, "But I heard you stayed up the whole night so why don't you try and get some sleep." Kagome tried to smile but in being reminded of how tired she was all she could do was manage a heavy nod before snuggling back down on the cushions. Inuyasha took a blanket throw that was on the back of the sofa and spread it over her.
"We're all nearby, and Kaede and Hobo are in the kitchen if you need anything else. I'll be down at the barn with everyone else." Kagome grinned at Inuyasha's nickname for Houjo and nodded slowly closing her eyes and drifting off to sleep.

So she was in the West somewhere. It helped to have connections. He chucked to himself at the phone he had recently hung up after receiving the dial tone. It had been mere seconds, but seconds he would continuously orgasm to later on. His jewel's voice gave him something to thing about while fucking the mistress he paid to keep him satisfied.
"My jewel, I'm coming for you soon." He laughed again into the dark shadows from the glow of the computer screen dimly lit in front of him.
.A¤¤A..A¤¤A. .A¤¤A..A¤¤A. .A¤¤A..A¤¤A.
Kagome had slept through the entire day and night. She didn't realize it of course until she had woken up and found Sango sitting there reading some paperwork in a chair nearby while Kagome had been sleeping.
There were a few flowers in a nearby vase which were a cheerful greeting and the sun shining through the window across from the television which was on but muted. It was the local news.
"What time is it?" She asked Sango who smiled at Kagome.
"About freaking time Kags, you were starting to worry me there for a while. But you slept through the night, and Jakotsu's night of watching romantic television, how you slept through that I'll never know. It's the morning, I'm just catching up on the daily cattle count." Kagome's face broke into a grin at the thought.
"But it's a new day, and you must be refreshed."
"No kidding. I think I'll go take a shower and then if possible I would like to ask someone for a ride into a nearby town so I can replace that cell." She looked at the pieces of the damaged cell which had been put on the coffee table in front of her, but they were a nasty reminder.
"Well if you can wait until later on today I'll send you with one of the boys to pick up some things from town anyway. Oh and last night your gallery manager called from New York. Said something about a show coming up and needing prints." Kagome rolled her eyes, deadlines, deadlines, deadlines.
"Yeah. I think he'll like the new idea of the Western photographs. I will call him back later." She sat up on the sofa.
"Isn't it bad to give your manager the number here if you're here?" Sango asked.
"Well no. I show my work under an alias so no one even knows my work is my own. Except my parents that is. Naraku thought I was a wedding photographer, so no worries there." Kagome started to fold the blanket and gather up her things.
"Kaede should have breakfast ready soon." She unmuted the local news show. Kagome then heard Sango snort at the television screen as she took it off mute. Kagome turned around and sat back down on the couch wondering what had her friend make such an unspoken comment.
The screen had a young woman with black long hair in a ponytail holding a beautiful chestnut
colored horse as she smiled seductively at the camera. She was being interviewed by the reporter,
"So after three years on the circuit, and three years ago your defeat against the Takahashi brothers, word has it you're finally returning home to your local circuit to compete against cowboys you defeated long ago?" The reported held the microphone under her chin.
"Why yes sugar, I sure am going to be looking forward to homecoming. I've been on the circuit now for a good earned three years and I can't wait to see my family, and of course get back to mah boys." She winked haughtily at the camera.
"Well there you have it! Kikyo Daisuki, rodeo Queen of the South Western circuit returning from her rodeo travels and recent fame, reporting for your local 7 o'clock news. Back to you Judy."
"Do you know her?" Kagome looked at the screen with disgust at the woman's actions.
"Unfortunately. She used to work here." Kagome looked over at Sango with wide eyes.
"Here?! But she's so..."
"Fake?"
"Yeah."
"Well Kikyo was once apart of our happy little family, and my father was even going to make her a partner in the ranch," Sango scoffed at the idea, "But she showed her true colors soon enough."
"What happened Sango?"
"She sabotaged Inuyasha's victory in the finals of the rodeo in town. The best of the best, and whoever won would get to show in the Western circuit for the next year, pretty much letting you climb to the top of the circuit, and there was no way to prove how she did it." Kagome couldn't believe it, why would someone stoop so low? "And that's not the worst of it." Sango looked down sadly.
"She was once engaged to one of the Takahashi brothers, Inuyasha Takahasi."
Kagome gasped, "No! Inuyasha was engaged to that bitch?"
They both turned when they heard the door open and in walked Miroku who sighed and sat down next to Sango who scooted a few inches in the opposite direction. "Inuyasha is not going to be in a good mood."
Sango and Kagome looked at him with a duh expressions on their faces, "Gee Miroku how long have you been eavesdropping." Sango leaned on her hands hoping Miroku wouldn't spill the beans to Inuyasha.
"I already knew, but to answer your inspiring question my lovely Sango, I was listening to the sweet sound that was coming from that delicious mouth of yours." Sango blushed a bright red and rolled up her papers and then preceded to smack him over the head with it, which earned a laugh from Kagome.
The heard the triangle being rung for breakfast.
.A¤¤A..A¤¤A. .A¤¤A..A¤¤A. .A¤¤A..A¤¤A.
Of course Miroku was right, Inuyasha was in a sour mood that whole day, and so Kagome nor Sango wanted to ask him for a ride into town, and Sango was too busy so they decided to wait until he cooled off.
"There's always Kouga to take you, or Jak. Sadly Houjo and Kaede don't drive and neither does Bankotsu, and I haven't seen Sesshoumaru since this morning.
"No thanks, Kouga is a bit too much to handle for the long drive into town. It's alright I'll wait for Inuyasha to cool off, meanwhile I'll prepare to get photos of the west!" She pumped her fist in the air with mighty dedication and then sweat dropped when Kouga and Inuyasha walked through the door.
Inuyasha had been the one to walk down to the mailbox the day before and had intercepted the mail lady who was bragging on her cell phone how she got to deliver the mail to the rodeo queen bitch herself. Inuyasha was...not...happy.
He from then went into his apartment and turned on the news where of course they were honoring their local returning home hero, the bitch herself, Kikyo. He growling and slammed his fist on the set turning it off and then stomping off to work. The others just kind of scurried off away from him.
.A¤¤A..A¤¤A. .A¤¤A..A¤¤A. .A¤¤A..A¤¤A.
Later on that week one night Rin stepped into the hot steamed shower in Sesshoumaru's little house on the side of the property. She sighed into the hot stream of water wondering when Sesshoumaru would get back from fixing the bulls pen fence, the alpha male had kicked out at Jakotsu earlier that day breaking one of the boards.
She jumped when she heard the door slam in the bedroom and then the bathroom door open. Rin grinned when Sesshoumaru walked into the small room and stripped his clothes off. He preceded to step into the hot water and the sight before him cooled his temper a little bit.
"Hmm, how was work honey?" Rin slid her hands up his chest and linked her hands around his neck teasing him with the phrase.
Sesshoumaru instead of responding dipped his head and passionately kissed his fiancé in hoping to rid the problems of the day into sexual release which she was expecting.
Rin almost lost her footing on the tile as Sesshoumaru dipped his head to nibble along her collarbone and then molded one of her breasts with his hands, being careful with his clawed fingertips. He rubbed the pad of his thumb over her right nipple as he moved his lips over the opposite one. Eliciting an approval from her as her head was thrown back.
Rin leaned against the wall of the shower letting loose a moan and fitting her fingers through his white hair. She loved his white silky hair, and hoped when they had children they would inherit that feature of his. She played with the silky strands as he moved his tongue expertly over her other nipple and then moved his hand down to her bare thighs doubling from the sensations from the water and his trailing hands.
He grinned when she trembled under his touch and pressed on her a bit harder against the wall of the steamed shower and slipped his finger inside her, to which her back arched against his chest.
They broke their lip contact and Rin gently bit his neck where she knew his mating instincts got a thrill from her teeth. "Oh Sessh." And she felt her muscles clenching around his finger as he twirled it around her most sensitive spot and then preceded to sink it into her depths and his growling when she would moan her approval and then reached around his back to squeeze his buttocks in response.
When he withdrew his finger Rin cried out in withdraw and begged him to hurry up, "Sessh please, take me now." He didn't need any further encouragement and with one hand she took his length in her hand, "Are you ready big boy?" He growled as she stroked him once, and twice, and then directed his tip towards her entrance.
He sank his length into her warmth and felt her nails dig into his shoulder blades and her legs wrap around his waist as he leaned their full weight against the wall of the shower tiles. He grunted into her neck licking and nipping their mate mark. A mark he would only give once, and to only her. She saw stars when his tongue would graze that spot, their spot which would send spikes of pleasure down to her groin area.
"Yes! Sessh faster." And him the silent type would only say her name once, usually and that he loved her before they would collapse against the wall completely satisfied, and then have to start the cleaning process all over again, which would need to be started again later even if they got out of the shower at all or even out of the bedroom.
When they were laying in bed later on that night Rin turned towards him. Implying about the question she had asked earlier when he first came home. She trailed her hand down his chest heading south, he was quickly losing his concentration., "It was that bad huh?"
