Okay, here is the next chapter for Junsuina Ai.

Oh, and just to let you know, the kiss from the last chapter is something I would normally never EVER do, that happens when I'm annoyed because I am stuck on a chapter part and my friend, who is a yaoi-fan, gives me 'help', that won't happen again, I hope no one hates me, even though it was purposely supposed to be gross because I hate yaoi and I agreed to do it because I hate Naraku so much, it's like how we all hate spoiled brats, and Kikyo-bashers hate Kikyo, so they make Kikyo a spoiled brat. That's all I'm going to say for now...

I have another riddle.

What word becomes shorter when you add two letters?

Answer at the chapter's end.

It was a simple flower trick. The picture was already done anyway. No need to do any imagining.

Now Sesshomaru held a real white carnation and placed the now blank piece of paper under a pillow, it would probably freak Kagome when she came in here and noticed the picture Rin drew was blank.

He knew she was coming, he caught her scent drawing closer to this room, along with the scent of food. Speaking of scents, the smell of the white carnation smelt like...the same as Kagome's natural scent. Pure, autumn and spring air...

A knock was heard on the door, though he didn't really get up to open it.

The door opened just a few seconds later and in walked Kagome.

"Ummm...Sesshomaru?"

Sesshomaru looked up when Kagome placed a tray of chicken broth on the night table by his bed.

There was a few moments of silence.

"Hey, where did you get that?"

'Get what?'

"I mean, it's winter!" She exclaimed "How did you get a flower in the middle of winter?"

Right, he had forgotten about winter and flowers. It seemed like such a small thing in comparison to what had been happening recently. Though, he wouldn't be able to answer, and he'd prefer it if Kagome just didn't ask these questions. So without further thought, Sesshomaru handed the flower to Kagome. He knew girls liked flowers, Kagome was so obviously a girl, so...

Kagome looked at Sesshomaru, then at the flower, and then she repeated this action, before she finally, slowly and gently, took the flower out of Sesshomaru's hand.

"Ummm...Thanks, I guess..." She brought the carnation up to her nose and inhaled the scent. A smile graced her lips, and as he watched her, Sesshomaru couldn't help but smile as well as a warmth was filled inside him.

Kagome looked up from her flower and gazed at Sesshomaru for a few seconds while her cheeks turned red, then she stared at the floor.

"I think I'll go put this flower in water" She turned around and quickly left the room.

Sesshomaru watched her leave before eyeing the soup that she had brought for him. He tasted it, then made a face that he would never normally allow someone to see, it tasted terrible! Or maybe it was just him. Human food just wasn't that great tasting in his opinion. He placed the spoon back in the bowl and leaned back, closing his eyes. He was still a little tired, and just wanted to rest a little more.

A little later, he heard a loud gasp and his eyes shout open, but when he did, all he saw was Kagome blushing and then there was some other person who had silver hair with dog ears and was dressed in red.

"Where did you come from?" Kagome asked. Sesshomaru closed his eyes again, pretending to be sleeping.

"The window" Came the reply from the person who Sesshomaru had yet to learn their name "I caught your scent coming from this room, and someone else's too. I wonder why you're here-Oh, who the hell is this guy supposed to be...?"

"Oh, just someone I found wounded in the forest this morning"

Sesshomaru mentally frowned at the way she said that. Just someone, huh?

"He's mute though."

"Ah, so he's dumb."

He felt like glaring at the way those words sounded, but kept his eyes closed.

"Is he deaf too?"

"No, just mute...So how are you doing?"

"Just fine."

"Oh, I see..."

Sesshomaru detected a lot of disappointment in Kagome's voice and cracked his eyes open a little to see her glance at the ground, some embarrassment still on her face, but it was quickly disappearing.

"Oh, don't be so disappointed" The male in red said, placing his hand on Kagome's cheek. This was beginning to really irritate Sesshomaru more than he thought it would.

Kagome gasped softly as the red guy started leaning his face closer to hers. Sesshomaru widened his eyes, they were going to kiss, in front of him? It was disrespectful, he decided, though it was mainly the fact that this person was about to kiss Kagome that made him more annoyed than just some couple kissing in front of him.

Sesshomaru reached over to the soup, grabbed the spoon and threw it with perfect aim at the back of the man dressed in red's head. He then closed his eyes quickly.

"OW!"

Sesshomaru's lips twitched, but he managed to keep a straight face for now.

"Huh?" Kagome sounded confused.

The sound of the spoon hitting the ground was heard, and Sesshomaru began to feel Kagome's eyes on him, as well as Inuyasha's. His lips twitched again, but it soon developed into a tiny smile that he was unable to hold back.

"That bastard..." The male growled.

Sesshomaru opened his eyes, purposely feigning innocence, he heard Kagome giggling and glanced at her, then her happy expression turned into shock.

"Wait Inuyasha!" Kagome yelled. So Inuyasha is this person's name... "This is Sesshomaru's room for now, don't you think it was kind of rude to ummm...do what we almost did right in front of him? Maybe he was offended!"

"Sesshomaru, huh? That's the bastard's name? Keh, I don't give a damn if this is his room! I'll kill him!"

Sesshomaru was already prepared to move out of the way. He was expecting this, strangely, and when Inuyasha lunged, he jumped off the futon and zipped out of the way to the other side of the room. Inuyasha growled and went after him, clawing at him, though Sesshomaru leaned back through different angels, dodging each attack, and smirked. Inuyasha wasn't that hard to fight, quite easily actually, though it looked humorous at how serious Inuyasha seemed to be taking this. But Inuyasha was easy to fight and predictable, seeing as he let all his emotions on his face, so it didn't feel more than a little game to Sesshomaru.

"IRON REAVER SOUL STEALER!" Inuyasha's shout was sounded, though Sesshomaru saw three golden flashes and moved out of the way just in time as it hit the futon bed again, slicing the bed in half and making the feathers from the pillows fly up.

Sesshomaru noticed sparks suddenly fly from Kagome's direction and attach themselves around Inuyasha's neck. Inuyasha paused to look at them, but then kept fighting. All was loud, until...

"SIT BOY!" Kagome screamed.

Inuyasha crashed to the ground and Sesshomaru looked at Kagome curiously.

There was a few moments of silence, and Inuyasha pulled his head from the ground, his eyes flashing with anger.

"WHAT THE HELL, KAGOME?"

"I'm really sorry, Inuyasha, but I don't think a good hostess lets her guests kill each other, I had to stop you in some way"

Inuyasha stood up, glaring, but he seemed sad, as Sesshomaru observed.

"I get it..." he muttered with his ears flattening on his head "You don't need me here, you've got your mute boy!"

"No, wait, Inuyasha! It's not like that!" Kagome cried "Why don't you stay for dinner?"

Sesshomaru held back from smiling or laughing at how random that sounded. First, she sounded frantic, and suddenly, her voice sound all calm and casual.

"Whatever" And he left, letting the door slam behind him.

Kagome plopped to the floor and rubbed her temples "Sesshomaru, WHYYY?"

Sesshomaru only felt a little guilty, but of all the places to kiss, why kiss in front of him? Like he wasn't even there? So that ended up taking away the guilty feeling.

"This room is a disaster" She moaned, looking over all the destroyed furniture. The nice furniture...And then she randomly started playing with the feathers on the floor, Sesshomaru stared at her as she did this. Picked the feathers up, then dropped them, repeating it over and over again.

Then, she just stopped and stood up again.

"Dinner is going to be done soon. I think you should start getting ready"

She left after that so Sesshomaru begun to get ready.

Different foods were set around the table, though Sesshomaru had no appetite for them, but he needed to force himself to eat it, otherwise they'd all think something was wrong. After Kikyo said "Itadakimasu", he gave himself a tiny portion of rice without the curry, he didn't need to eat that much anyway.

So he ended up glancing up everyone once in a while to see if anyone was watching, and if they weren't, he would eat the stuff too quickly, and swallow it so he wouldn't be able to taste it. Though when someone was watching every now and then, he'd force himself to eat slowly and use all his self-control to not make faces.

Finally, Inuyasha said "Gochisousama deshita" and apparently dinner was over at last.

Sesshomaru didn't miss the bright smile Kagome gave Inuyasha, and felt a spark of annoyance, which was odd to feel for something simple like a smile.

And then the cooks came to clear the dishes.

Sesshomaru was again back in his room, leaning against the wall as he examined the mess. Everything was all destroyed...everything! Except the ground and all. His eyes closed for just a few seconds.

He caught Kagome's scent and when he heard her walk in, he opened his eyes and slid them towards her.

"Come on, Sesshomaru. We'll have to move you to another room tonight, alright?"

'She's not angry about this?' He was surprised. Her tone said: oh, it's messy, big deal!

He nodded his head slowly and walked towards her. She smiled at him, it was a small smile, but it gave him a very warm feeling. She led him through the halls until the finally stopped at another room. It was much like the last one.

"Well. There you go. Hopefully, if you and Inuyasha ever get into another fight, it won't destroy this room too. I'll tell a servant to fix up the last room before father comes home tomorrow."

Kagome was acting as if a child spilled water, and she was being all nice so the child wouldn't feel bad. The same tone...

Sesshomaru silently sat down on the futon bed, then Kagome turned to leave, but he didn't want her to. He somehow already knew that she was the one who brought him here, and it was because of her hand holding his that the nightmares lessened earlier. Before Sesshomaru could think much about it, his hand reached out and grabbed hers.

"Huh?"

He was just realizing what he did, and almost wanted to take it back, but not really. No, he wanted her to stay and let it express in his eyes.

"Do you...do you want me to stay?"

"Mm-hm..." He moved to the side of the bed to make room for her. Kagome's cheeks colored, and it made her look even prettier than before.

"Okay..." Her blush deepened as she came in beside him.

As Sesshomaru began to drift off, he felt her hand hold his and he also held hers, before his eyes closed and he fell into a peacefully dreamless sleep.

SO that is the end of chapter 3 in Sesshomaru's POV.

Later, and Merry Christmas!
