Author's Note: Whaaat? Another update? So soon? Yes, it's true.

Summary: Sesshoumaru and Kagome before consummation.

Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha.

How Long Can You Wait?

"I've had many females before you." He tells her nonchalantly, like it's nothing to worry about.

His bold statement surprised her. One does not simply tell their 'significant' other tales concerning past ladies of the night. Especially, before the 'completion' of marriage. But of course, this is Sesshoumaru. He likes to intimidate.

His bed, or rather, their bed, creaked under his weight as he joined his awaiting bride.

"Many?" Kagome gulped. He's experienced.

"Are you surprised?"

Kagome let out a nervous laugh. "Of course not." She waved away his suggestion. "Like I expected you to be a virgin."

"Unlike yourself." Sesshoumaru smirked. Right on the money. Kagome pulled the blankets around her tighter.

"Excuse me?! Well, par-don me for keeping myself a virgin until…marriage," her voice wavered. A faint blush appeared on her cheeks.

"Um, Sesshoumaru --?"

"Don't worry," he pulled Kagome closer to him. "I can wait."


Author's Note: Really? Really, Sesshoumaru. You can wait. ¬.¬ Somehow, I find that very hard to believe, Sex God.
