Chapter Six

When I woke up I was in Sesshomaru's room. Sesshomaru was asleep beside me. His arms were around my waist and he held me close to his chest. I smiled at the peaceful expression on his face. I heard someone running before they opened the door. It burst open to reveal stupid Jaken. I put my head down on Sesshomaru's chest and sighed. The expression on Jakens face was priceless. It looked like he just watched nonstop horror movies.

"Milord! What is going on? Why is this woman sharing a bed with you?" He yelled. I was about to tell Jaken that he was sleeping and to go away but then I heard, and felt, the growl coming from Sesshomaru's chest. His golden eyes held anger and I was hoping it was at Jaken, not me. I should trust him though, I mean he did say that if he had to choose seeming weak and losing me that he wanted to seem weak to others.

"It's called sleeping with the one you love, Jaken. What do you want?" He said, he sounded extremely annoyed.

"Surely she has put a spell on you Milord. Surely, such a powerful demon like you wouldn't elope with this stupid wench." Sesshomaru growled again. And when I looked at his face he looked extremely pissed at Jaken's accusations.

"One, it is Lady Flame to you. Two, if you ever call her a wench again then I'll kill you myself. And yes, I must be under her spell. It's called her beauty and her grace. I will elope with whoever I want, Jaken. I must be barking mad to have fallen in love with her." He said. I was the only one who realized that Rin was at the door. But before I was able to comment, Sesshomaru grabbed my arms and kissed me. It was eager or rough. It was soft and gentle. It wasn't hurried, needy, or desperate. It was kind, gentle and sweet. We pulled away when we heard a little giggle at the doorway.

"See Master Jaken. I told you that Shippo doesn't lie. Lord Sesshomaru really does love Lady Christina." Jaken just scoffed and walked away. As soon as he left, Rin ran up and jumped on the bed.

"Are you going to get married to Lady Christina Lord Sesshomaru?" I couldn't help but laugh at his expression. It was horrified.

"Rin I think it's a little early in our relationship for that. But if we do plan to get married you'll be one of the first to know." I said, giving her a hug. She grinned and ran off. Sesshomaru pulled me close to him.

"I love you Flame." He whispered. He kissed the top of my head and I leaned up to meet his lips. I gently kissed him and he wrapped his arms around me. I pulled away and smiled at him.

"I love you too, Sesshomaru." I said. I kissed him again, this time deepening the kiss.

"Do you guys ever stop making out?" Inuyasha asked from the door.

"Shut up Inuyasha." I said, continuing to kiss him. I didn't care that we had an audience, Inuyasha can get over himself.

"Well once you guys, um, finish up, we were asked to tell you that there are some people downstairs who wish to talk to you." He said, walking away. Sesshomaru pulled back and smiled at me.

"We should go see who it is." He said, getting up.

"Yeah. Besides, it's impolite to keep people waiting." I said, getting up too. I noticed that Sesshomaru had no shirt on and his chest was quite nice without a huge wound there. It was muscular and tanned and when he noticed me staring I blushed big time.

"Should I take that pretty blush as a compliment?" He asked, chuckling to himself. I just got up then stopped dead in my tracks. I didn't bring any clothes what so ever. Sesshomaru laughed again and pointed at the closet.

"I took the liberty of having some clothes made for you." I ran up and hugged him. Then I ran to the closet. I shifted through the kimonos until I found one I like. It was black with red flowers on it and had a slit going up the leg that went to about mid thigh. I ran into the bathroom and changed quickly. I was eager to find out who these visitors were. When I came out, Sesshomaru was leaning against the wall waiting for me. He offered me his hand and we left the room. We, carefully, walked down the long flights of stairs until we got to the point that I could actually see who it was. There were four girls standing there and when they saw me they smiled.

"Well, well. Dark Flame. Long time no see."
