Kagome was lying in bed trying to sleep, but she couldn't stop thinking of Sesshomaru. She had never been so happy in her life she couldn't believe how good it felt to love someone and actually have that love returned. She found herself thinking of her family and grew sad for she would never be able to her life there. She had grown use to living in the feudal era and enjoyed it very much but she missed her family terribly. She was deep in thought when a knock at the door snapped her from her thinking. She got out of bed and opened the door to find Sesshomaru standing there.
Sesshomaru couldn't sleep he wanted to be with Kagome. He lay in his bed for a few more minutes letting his mind wander. All he could think about was her. He decided to go to her and see if she was still awake, it had only been a short while since they returned from their walk so he thought she might still be awake. When she opened the door he looked at her and smiled. He gazed at her for what seemed like an eternity just taking in all of her beauty. "It seems we are both having trouble sleeping tonight" he said, his voice was light and airy almost a whisper to soft for her to hear. Kagome moved farther into the room to let him in and shut the door behind him. They sat together on the bed in silence for a long time neither of them knowing what to say or do next.
Kagome was wondering why he had come to her, he usually went to his study to work when he couldn't sleep at night. She didn't want to ask him for she feared he would leave, and she wanted him to stay. She finally broke her eyes away from his and realized that he was shirtless. She reached a hand out and touched his chest, then noticed the two red stripes on his sides. She reached for them and when she touched them she was surprised at how soft they were. She had never seen him shirtless and was too interested in his torso to notice his reaction to her touch until she started caressing one of the red stripes on his side and heard him purr.
She gasped and pulled her hand away finally realizing what she was doing but it was to late when she looked up into his eyes they were dark with passion. She was nervous she had never been intimate with a guy hell Inuyasha was the only person she had ever kissed and that was the extent of their intimacy. She froze and just continued to gaze into his eyes not sure of what to do.
Sesshomaru could tell she was nervous and knew she probably had never been with anyone before but he couldn't help himself, he leaned in and pressed his lips gently against hers, he ran his tongue over her bottom lip and when she gasped he thrust it into her mouth wanting to taste her. He ravaged her with his tongue and was surprised when she began searching for a taste of him. When they finally came up for air he knew he had to end it or he would do something they might regret later so he pulled away from her and stood up.
"Sesshomaru?" Kagome panted. He had left her breathless and she felt dizzy her senses where overwhelmed with what she had felt. Sesshomaru looked at her and she realized why he had stopped. "I think I should return to my room for the night Kagome." She nodded and watched as he left. She laid down and finally fell asleep.
