Shikon Cruise

Study rooms are meant for studying!

Last time on Shikon Cruise

"See, I knew they'd get together!" InuYasha whispered to Kagome, Kagome shrugged.

"Yeah, oh well Sango has to deal with a loser slash pervert." Kagome smiled "Yup, I guess they can blame it on us for locking them in the washroom." Kagome smirked.

"Hey! They we're the ones who locked us in the closet before! Not to mention they made us see the sight of Kanna and her cousin! Oh god!" InuYasha cried out as he remembered the sight, Kagome smiled and hugged him.

"Don't worry, it'll be ok." Kagome patted him on the shoulder.

Present Time

"Well would you look at that?" Kagome and Ayame sighed.

"That is just so adorable!" Ayame squealed.

"Yup." Kilala smiled.

"Please, I think I'm gonna hurl!" Kagura thought bitterly.

They were all watching Miroku and Sango who were sitting on a couch, kissing and laughing.

"I see someone's in a grumpy mood." Kilala pointed out.

"Whatever." Kagura said as she stomped out of the room.

"Hey, what's up with her?" InuYasha asked as he came into the room, she had passed him and harshly bumped shoulders.

"I dunno." Ayame shrugged, Shippo looked up as well.

"Probably just in a bad mood." Sango said as she pulled her lips away from Miroku, Miroku shrugged.

"Or she's Pmsing!" He shouted, Sango slugged him in the arm.

"Shut it pervert." Kagome threatened, Kagome wanted to follow Kagura, but she knew Kagura.

She always liked to be alone after she was pissed and then after a while of cooling, she liked it when Kagome came to talk to her.

"Well I came in here for a reason… Oh yeah! You guys know where Sesshomaru is?" InuYasha snapped his fingers, Him and Sesshomaru were supposed to go and hang out today.

They didn't hang out to often, but Kagome convinced them that they should. Plus they did used to be tight, so they thought they should get it back.

"Um…I have no clue why?" Shippo asked.

"I'm supposed to hang with them today." InuYasha shrugged.

"WHAT?!" Koga, Miroku and Shippo turned to face him. Miroku came up and felt his head.

"He doesn't seem to hot, so it isn't a fever." Miroku said.

"Hey do you think he hit his head?" Shippo suggested.

"Well it wouldn't be the first time." Koga sighed, Miroku nodded his head.

"Hey!" InuYasha slapped Miroku's hands off of him "I'm right here!" InuYasha grumbled.

"What's so bad about him and Sesshomaru hanging out?" Kagome asked, it didn't seem to bad.

"InuYasha and Sesshomaru have never hung out, or at least not from what we've seen, and we've known him since he was 7. They HATE each other; they just don't 'hang' out at ALL!" Koga said, Shippo and Miroku were behind him nodded along.

"Really?" Ayame asked.

"Well they were ok with it when I said they should." Kagome said.

"Hmmm." They all wondered.

'That's because he already counts you as a little sister, or at least that's what he told me when I asked him after.' InuYasha shrugged, it wasn't worth telling, He had always looked up to Sesshomaru, and no it wasn't because Sesshomaru was about a foot taller then him, it was because he was his older brother.. Not like he was ever going to tell him that.

"Oh well, let's go and hang at the pool." Kilala suggested, they all nodded and went to the pool.

Kagura

'I hate him I hate him I HATE him!' Kagura chanted in her head, she was stomping down the hallway to the study room, the place where she first met Sesshomaru.

She walked in, and shut the door, she then sat down on the small couch and sighed.

"God I wish I could say I hate him and mean it!" Kagura sighed and covered her face with her hands.

"I just wish I knew why…"

Flash Back

Kagura and Sesshomaru were walking back from a long day of fun. Everyone was asleep but they had stayed up talking. Kagura was about to ask him…

"Sesshomaru?" Kagura asked, she was holding his hand and he, hers.

"Yes?" He asked her.

"W-would you go out with me?" Kagura asked, she was hiding her face from him, as she waited…After a while of silence she looked up. Sesshomaru's eyes were hidden in his bangs, he let go of her hand.

Kagura's fear was rising, she was getting filled with fear every millisecond he was silent.

"No…I'm sorry Kagura." Sesshomaru said as he walked away, heading to his dorm, after he had closed the door, Kagura fell down crying.

She hugged her knees as she felt her heart tear into nothingness, she watched Sesshomaru's door, holding onto the hope that he'd come out and hug her…only to cry harder when he didn't come out for her…

End of Flashback

Kagura sat there, lying on the couch…choking down her sobs. She held her chest as pain crushed her, once tough heart. Her sobs racked through her like a waved crashing on the shore. She shut her eyes tight; she held her chest as her throat closed over.

"I hate this! I can't deal with this!" She cried.

She heard a soft knock, and a rustle in the room, but didn't pay attention.

"It's Kagome…" Kagome's voice rang clear.

"Come in." Kagura said in a chocked voice, she hid her face.

Kagome came in and shut the door; she sat by Kagura and held her.

"You can cry you know." Kagome smiled, Kagura started crying immediately, she clutched onto Kagome's shirt and cried her eyes out.

After about a half hour of her cries Kagome pushed her off and held her shoulders tight.

"You know how this works, you have a good cry and then I get tough….Now what's wrong?" Kagome asked in a stern voice, she hated being so mean to Kagura when she was in this state but she had learned at a young age, this was the only way to get through to her.

"I-I…H-He." Kagura stuttered out.

"Talk!" Kagome yelled, Kagura breathed in and out and finally talked.

"He….I a-asked out Sesshomaru…and he just let me go…I-I thought we might have had something…I thought he'd be the one…Why am I so stupid!" Kagura yelled, Kagome looked her in the eye, and said clearly.

"You're not stupid, maybe he had a reason…maybe he was scared." Kagome said, Kagura looked up.

"Sesshomaru? Sacred…never." Kagura denied.

"I think he was, Sesshomaru may look like a person who you think is complex and all but if you can read him correctly, he's as transparent as you. Now get some rest Kagura, and I'll be back in a few hours…and remember…your love for him is strong, and his love for you is the same." Kagome winked and Kagura smiled, she lay down and Kagome put her sweater over her.

She then walked to the door, but stopped right in front of it.

"You know, you never were a good hider, you should look into that, I think they have some ninja courses on the ship…comfort her, tell her the truth, and if you hurt her emotionally I'll inflict the same pain…physically, big brother." Kagome whispered as she opened the door and walked out, a few seconds after Sesshomaru came out of the hidden corridor, he smiled.

'Damn Little sister, you're way too good at finding me.' Sesshomaru said 'and I highly doubt you wouldn't hurt me if I hurt Kagura…Kagura…' Sesshomaru thought as he glided over to her broken form.

Kagura was already asleep, her face stained with tears, her hair messed up and her lips slightly trembling. He moved her onto his lap and stroked her hair softly.

"S…Sessho…maru." Kagura slightly tossed and turned.

"Shh, I'm right here, I'm always…right here." Sesshomaru said as he kissed her cheek, Kagura instantly fell into a peaceful sleep. Sesshomaru held her tightly.

Back with the crew

"God dammit, I have the WORST brother of all time! 'We should spend time together' He says! But nooo is he here?! I don't think so!" InuYasha grumbled. He had been looking for Sesshomaru for a bit over 2 hours and he was unbelievably pissed.

"And I mean the WORST brother ever! He's stupid and stubborn! I bet he FORGOT that he had a little brother and decided to go and sleep somewhere!" InuYasha yelled harder.

Kagome took his hand in hers, and sat him down beside and put her feet up on the couch; she smiled at him as he tightened his fingers around hers.

"Now calm down, Yasha, he's probably busy, ok?" Kagome smiled at him, she leaned her head against his shoulder, and smiled.

"Yeah yeah, but for this he owes me big…hey where's Kagura anyway?" InuYasha asked, realizing that everyone but Kagura and Sesshomaru was there.

"She's sleeping." Kagome snuggled in; InuYasha took Kagome's hands into his other hand and wrapped the one that was holding her hands around her shoulders.

"I see." InuYasha said as he rested his head on hers.

Everyone was laughing a hanging out…trying to drown each other…what they usually did.

In the Study

Kagura moved and stretched a bit, but stopped when she realized that someone was holding her, she freaked out and fell to the floor in a big heap.

"Ow…never again…that really hurt…" Kagura groaned, she looked up to see Sesshomaru just waking up, he rubbed his eyes and then looked at her and smiled.

"Hey." Sesshomaru smiled, Kagura glared at him.

"Yeah, whatever." She got up to leave when his hand snapped out to grab hers.

"Please…just stay with me." Sesshomaru whispered, Kagura was shocked but her stubbornness was close behind.

"No! So what you can just leave me crying again? I don't think so Sesshomaru, I don't need this!" Kagura yelled her eyes were starting to water; she needed to get out fast.

"Stop!" Sesshomaru yelled, he held her by the shoulders.

"Let go of me!" Kagura struggled; he held her tight and then hugged her.

"No! I don't want to! And I won't!" Sesshomaru yelled, Kagura broke down, she cried on his shoulders and hugged him back tightly, he held her as well.

"Why…why Sesshomaru? I thought you felt something…I-I really cared about you!" Kagura screamed, her throat hurt but she wouldn't stop 'I can't tell him how much I care about him…it's too soon.'

"Cared? As in pastence?" Sesshomaru questioned, Kagura looked at him.

"I Care about you….and I thought you cared about me too." Kagura tried to turn away so that she could walk out but he stopped her.

"No, you're not walking out, not now." Sesshomaru kissed her, Kagura kissed him back, in an instance. She deepened the kiss and Sesshomaru followed, he hugged her tightly and so did Kagura.

"I-I'm sorry, I do care about you Kagura I was just scared…I…I was scared that we might get too close, and that I might get hurt…but I should have thought about how it may hurt you." Sesshomaru hugged her, Kagura cried harder, realizing her mistake.

"I-I'm so sorry Sesshomaru! I'm sorry! I lo-like you so much!" Kagura cried, Sesshomaru held her, realizing what she wanted to say.

"I love you." Sesshomaru smiled, Kagura went into a fit.

"I love you too" Kagura smiled up at him.

"How is it that Kagome is always right?" Sesshomaru asked, Kagura laughed.

"I don't know, she just is." Kagura smiled.

Sesshomaru smiled back and hugged her; they sat there in complete silence, so happy that they were finally close again.

"Well this is stupid but…Kagura will you go out with me?" Sesshomaru smiled.

"I'll think about it." Kagura laughed as Sesshomaru pouted, he hugged her and started to kiss her neck.

"Ok, ok I give I guess you can have the honor of dating me." Kagura smiled and hugged him back.

Kagome and the others

"Ok guys you ready, wait…their talking again….." Kagome whispered.

"Well hurry up, I have to kick his ass!" InuYasha whispered harshly.

"Shh!" Kilala shushed him.

"You Shh!" InuYasha stuck out his tongue.

"Both of you shut the hell up!" Sango glared.

"Well, I never!" Kilala laughed.

In the Study

Kagura and Sesshomaru were in the middle of a deep kiss when…

"STUDY ROOMS ARE MEANT FOR STUDING!" The others yelled as they barged in. Kagura hid her face in Sesshomaru's chest; Sesshomaru wrapped his arms around her waist and rolled his eyes.

"You just had to didn't you?" Sesshomaru asked them, InuYasha came up and slugged him in the arm, Sesshomaru looked at him.

"What was that for?" Sesshomaru raised his eyebrow.

"You! We were supposed to hang out today! But nooo you decided to ditch me!" InuYasha grumbled.

Sesshomaru chuckled, he roughed up his little brothers hair and smiled.

"We will, but right now, I want to be with her, ok?" Sesshomaru asked, InuYasha stood there.

"Uh…Sure…" InuYasha looked at him and then back at Kagome, then at Him and back at Kagome and then at his brother and then at Kagome, he kept doing this until Kagome came over and roughed his hair, she hugged him.

"Don't worry, this whole 'new' Sesshomaru won't last long, he'll be back in no time, and a girl can do things ya know?" InuYasha smiled as he wrapped an arm around Kagome.

"Yeah well, whatever." InuYasha shrugged 'Girls are just plain weird.'

"We are not weird InuYasha." Kagome smirked, InuYasha stood there.
