Kagome:

The Inu Youkai Huntress

Kagome's Confesion

When they arrived at the entrance to Kagome's door, she opened it. She bagan to walk in, then with a sudden thought, she turned around to say something, when she didn't see Sesshoumaru behind her. Quickly she exited her room, and turned in the direction of his room. "Umm, Sesshoumaru?" though he stoped, he did not turn around.

'Am I starting to have feelings for this girl? it can't be true, can it? Icare for noone, but then why did I tell her I would acompany her to see her family? And futhermore why did I just stop? and why is it that everytime I look at her I wanna take away all the pain I see in her eye's everyday, and when I look at her lips I wish only to taste them...her...' he took himself away from his thoughts when he felt her left arm circle around my waist, and her right hand placed itself ever so gently that he almost flinched.

"Sesshou? Are you feeling alright?"

"I'm fine."

"Oh. umm, sesshou? will you join me for awhile? I have something to share with you."

Slowly he turned himself around, making sure that he did not leave the circle of her arms. Gently, he slid his arms around her slim waist. "Alright."

"Thank you." she said as she grabbed his hand gently pulling him into her room.

She slid her hand out from his grasp, and walked ever so fluidly to her bed. His senses going mad from her scent alone. Kagome walked over to her futon, and motioned for him to come sit down on it with her. He did as she will, and came closer to her, hesitating before he finally decided to sit down. Feeling a bit nervous, he decided to brake the overwhelming silence.

"Kagome? What's the matter?"

"Sesshou, would you please just hold me?"

Slowly, almost reluctant, he slid his arms around her, and pulled her into his lap. He started to rub her back, and he felt her head on his shoulder, her breath tickling his neck.

He found himself becoming quickly aroused, he did not feel this to be a good idea. Leaning back against the futon, he gently asked, "Kagome, what is wrong?" The moment he finished the question she started to cry.

"I'm so sorry Sesshou, I didn't mean to cry, but it's so hard."

"What is so hard for you, that it makes you cry?"

"Inuyasha!" And with that her crying became heavier.

"Kagome, look at me."

She found herself so overwhelmed in pain that she was afraid of looking into those beautiful golden eyes. Becoming upset himself, he put a clawed hand to her chin, and lifted her head, so that he could see her eyes. the pain he saw the was heart wrenching, even for himself.

Taking a few moments to just stare into her hurt filled eyes, he started to speak. "Kagome, I have a saying that I would like to share with you. My mother told it to me, more concerning woman for me. "No man is worth your tears, for the one who is won't make you cry." Now please calm down. My brother is undeserving of your love, Please stop crying."

Hearing those words come from Sesshoumaru, who was supposedly the ice prince. Inuyasha had told her so many times that he was a heartless bloodthirsty killer, who would kill her in an instant if givin the chance. But this was not the Sesshoumaru that she was becoming to know. This Sesshoumaru was caring in his own way. 'I wonder what brought out this side of Sesshou, but I think I am starting to like this Sesshou. But this feeling I get anytime I'm around him is so strong. And anytime those stupid heirs of the other lands start acting like he's just a peice of meat, oh how infuriated I become that I just wanna take him away from all of his troubles. I think this sounds more like love than anything else, but can I really love him? I gotta...' but before she could finish her last thought, she felt Sesshoumaru's breath upon her lips, and gasped. "Sess..." but before she could finish saying his name, she felt his lips gently brush against hers, and despite herself, she kissed him back.

When he began to deepen the kiss, she felt that she should tell him the truth first, then if he still wished to kiss her, then she would not stop him, or at least she would not b able to stop him. Gently, she put her hands firmly on his chest, and pushed him away.

"I'm sorry, this was not my reason for asking you to join me. I need to tell you a story." 'though I thoroughly enjoyed it.'

"No, Forgive me Kagome, I should not have kissed you." 'but I do not regret it, and so desire to taste her again

'does he regret kissing me? I suppose he would, afterall, I was once human.' Shaking her thoughts from her head, she began to speak again.

"First I would like to tell you what transpired between Inuyasha and I. We had just defeated Naraku, which by the way, thank you for your help on that. Well, after that, I thought that Inuyasha and I would be together, here you call it becoming mates, Well, I was sadly mistaken, you see, he went missing for 2 days, and we all became worried, and when he came back, he brought kikyo with him, and told all of us that he intened to become her mate. Heartbroken already, I still wished to stay in this era, and he tried to force me to go back to my time, but there is nothing for me to go back to. You see, I had gone back a few months before we defeated Naraku, and both my Okaa san, And my Ji chan were both brutally murdered. My brother sota was still around, but he was about to head off to college. By the time we defeated Naraku, my brother had already gone to college, and sold the house, because I had told him I had decided to stay in the fuedal era. Inuyasha still wished for me to go back even thogh he knew I had nothing left. And that was when I had run away from him, and then you found me. The only thing I wish I could change would be that I wish I had brought my cub with me. I miss my son so much. When I was running, I wished upon the shikon to become an Inu Youkai, but I didn't think it would actually work seeing as how it was a selfish wish, But it did work, and I'm glad it did. Tho the jewel is still here with me."

Sesshoumaru sat there silent, absorbing all that she had said, Tightening his grip on her, he felt suddenly furious with Inuyasha, how could he treat her like that. When he felt her start to move out of his grip, he stopped her. "I'm sorry that was done to you Kagome. I want you to know that no matter what happens, you are always welcome to stay here."

"Sesshou, can I ask you somethin?"

"Anything."

"Well, do you regret kissing me?"

"No, I would not have kissed you if I did not want to. Why do you ask?"

"Because you apologized for it, I...I just thought that maybe you hadn't meant to ki..." But before she could finish, he kissed her again. Before she could even comprehend what he was doing, she found herself kissing him back. Before long they were both out of breath, slowly she pulled away to catch her breath, when he started to ask her an unexpected question. But when he turned to her, she was fast asleep. So he was not able to ask her. 'I think I will wait till the mood is perfect.'
