"speaking"

thinking


I wonder which kimono would look better on me, The dark blue kimono or the pale yellow kimono. You've never really cared about how you looked before. It's because of Sesshomaru isn't it? Maybe. Well you didn't say no so you're making some progress. You know what I think the blue one will look better. It brings out the streaks in my hair. I bet Sesshomaru will like it. Oh man! I'm almost late for breakfast.

Lady Ami entered the dining hall and was about to take her normal seat next to Kizu when she heard Sesshomaru say, "Lady Ami from now on you will be sitting next to me." He said it in a commanding tone because he couldn't let Kizu or Rin think he had emotions. Lady Ami walked over to Sesshomaru and sat down. "I'm not sitting here because you told me to." Lady Ami tells him quietly."Then why are you sitting here Ami?" "Why did you tell me to?" "You can figure it out. On your own. Just remember that just because I don't show emotions does not mean that I don't feel them."What was that supposed to mean? Isn't obvious? With Sesshomaru nothing is obvious. He wanted you to sit next him. Really? I swear you are blind. Hey Rin and Kizu just left to go play. Why don't grab his hand? Are you nuts? He wants to hold your hand. Doubt it.

Lady Ami jumped slightly when she felt something warm in her hand. Realizing that it was Sesshomaru's hand she intertwined her fingers with his. Sesshomaru's eyes widened slightly. He did not expect her to lace her fingers in his. But Sesshomaru did not object. He was actually enjoying holding her hand.

Sesshomaru felt Ami's hand clench. "Ami what is it?" "It's your half breed half brother. He is approaching your lands again. He is bringing his dead wench, the miko by the name of Kagome, a demon slayer and a monk." Ami said. Sesshomaru was slightly surprised by the change in scent. It still held the scent of cherry blossoms but it now had been infested by anger and worry. "I am going to go and tell him to get off my lands." Sesshomaru said. "I am coming with you." "No." "Yes I am." "Ami, do not come with me." "I am coming you know what happened last time, I can't risk that happening again! You almost died. While you were unconscious I was so worried. I thought I would never see your amber eyes again. I am coming!" Ami says somewhat dramaticaly.(sp?) "You were really that worried?" "Yes. I was. I never left your side. You can ask Koharu or Maya if you don't believe me but the only times I left were when Rin or Kizu needed me." Ami says. I think he knows you love him now! Ami's inner demon said. Ami loves you! Said Sesshomaru's inner demon triumphantly. "If you are really that worried about me then you can come with me."

Inuyasha's Gang.

"Inuyasha. Get off of my lands before I kill you and your wench!" "You're not one to talk Sesshomaru. If your bitch hadn't come and saved you you'd be dead." Inuyasha said. "Oh boy. He's done it now." Sango said as Sesshomaru's eyes began to turn red. "You die now." Sesshomaru said. His stoic mask slipped for a minute and showed nothing but hatred and anger. Inuyasha knew he crossed the line when his brother's eyes turned red and his fangs got longer. He didn't stand a chance against his half-brother. Especially not when Seshomaru was totally pissed at him. Inuyasha being the bull heade hanyou he is decided to fight anyway. When Inuyasha's slipped into unconsciousness Ami decided that she could not allow his death. he went up to Sesshomaru to try and calm him down before he completely tranformed. "Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru. Stop please. I want you to stop." Ami said to him as she began to run her fingers through his long silver hair. "Sesshomaru. Please calm down. You have to calm down." Ami said softly as she continued to stroke his hair. Sesshomaru was becoming more and more calm as he inhaled her sweet scent of cherry blossoms. The red slowly drained from his eyes and his claws and fangs went back to normal size. "Sesshomaru, we should leave. Let them stay on your lands only for the night. Had not the live miko, i mean Kagome not stepped in you might have been dead." Ami said as they were walking away.Seeing as Inuyasha had regained consciousness she said, "Just to let you know Inuyasha, if it weren't for how did you put it? Oh yeah Sesshmaru's bitch you would have died." Inuyasha let out his famous "Feh" and turned around. Kagome was surprised that Lady Ami had remebered her name and that Ami had corrected herself when she reffered to Kagome as Miko. "Lady Ami?" "what is that you want Kagome?" Ami said in her usual stoic tone. "I was wondering after what Inuyasha had called you why did you save his life?" "Because he doesn't stand a chance against Sesshomaru especially not when Sesshomaru is about to transform." Lady Ami said and saying this next part so nonody but Kagome could hear, "and I know what it felt like when I was about to lose Sesshomaru and I hate for you to lose your loved one as I almost did." "you mean you love Sess..." Kagome was cut off by Ami saying "Yes I do love him but he does not know. Kagome promise me you won't say anything?" "I promise. and thank-you for understanding." "Don't mention it."

Congratulations Ami!! You finally admited that you love him. Oh yeah! I was so right. Don't rub it in. Okay. Okay. You admited it! Please just leave me alone for now. Okay fine. Lady Ami was happy that her inner demon did not press the subject. She didn't know that Sesshomaru had turned around to see why she was not walking with him. He heard everything beginning with the second reason she spared Inuyasha's life. So she really does love me. I told you I was right! Oh yea! The Inner demon was so right! IN YOUR FACE! You are nothiing like me at all. Don't rub it in. I know I'm not like you all stoic and not showing any emotions. This Sesshomaru's inner demon is the exaxt opposite of you. I wouldn't want to be so emotionless. I am going home.

Sesshomaru's Castle

"Lady Ami will you take a walk with me in the gardens?" "Sure." Sesshomaru and Ami walked along in a comfortable silence. They came upon a stone bench surrounded by daisies and was in the shade of a beautiful cherry blossom tree. "Ami. ILoveYouWillBeMyMate?" Sesshomaru blurted in one breath. "Sesshomaru I couldn't understand you. Please slow down and repeat yourself." Sesshomaru takes a deep breath and begins again. "I...love you and I wanted to know if you would be my mate?" Sesshomaru just sat there already beginning to feel sorry that he ever told her how he felt until he heard Ami's answer. "Yes! Of course. Yes! I love you too!" Ami exclaims. "You do?" "Yes. I do." Lady Ami was pleasantly surprised and very happy when she felt Seshomaru press his lips against hers. She ran her hands through his long hair and he wrapped his arm around her waist. Ami deepened the kiss when she felt a nip at her lower lip.

"MY EYES!" Kizu screams as he walks into the garden. "Rin thinks that you two are gross." Rin says. Sesshomaru and Ami pull apart both extremely embarrassed and their faces a little pink. A little bit of an awkward silence follows."Uh. Lady Ami does this mean that I can call you Okaasan?" "Kizu you can always call me okaasan." "Can Rin call Lady Ami okaasan and Lord Sesshomaru Outasan?(sp?)" Rin asks. "You can call me Okaasan if you want to Rin. It is up to Lord Sesshomaru wether you can call him Outasan or not." "You may call me Outasan Rin. Kizu may also call me Outasan if he wishes." "Really?" Kizu questions looking at him in disbelief. "Yes. Really." Rin squeeled in delight and Kizu looked happier than he had in years. Rin and Kizu wrapped Ami and Sesshomaru in a tight hug. After they had gone Ami said, "Sesshomaru. We should tell the other lords about our decision." "I agree. We should leave tomorrow."


(A.N) The story isn't over yet! Sorry Inutaisho fans but I can't fit him into the story I thought I could but I can't sorry! Please Review and tell me what you think. I know Sesshy was out of character but I couldn't find a way for him to admit his love for Ami if he stayed in character! Thanx for reading:-)
