As
Kagome walked into the kitchen she thought about Sesshomaru and how
she always thought that he was hiding something. Hiding from himself.
'He hides from
himself like you are doing. I
am not hiding from myself.
Are too.' What
could of happen to make Sesshomaru so cold and unforgiving, she had
asked herself that many days. But she could finaly understand now.
Words.
Maybe
you're just jaded from some nobody's unforgotten words
Maybe
you're just faded a little gray from every time that you've been
hurt
While
Sesshomaru walked he took in everything the house had to offer. He
stoped a picture of what seemed to be a younger Kagome. 'She
looks so much like Rin. Rin could be her daughter. '
In the picture, so unlike the drawing, Kagome's silver eyes were full
of joy and love. 'Kagome...'
The girls locks were a lot shorter and she was in a ballet tutu in
mid leap. 'The
girl in this picture is so innoccent, she wasn't means for this
hearbreak and killing. It was meant for love and safe gaurd.'
Fate had been truly cruel to the miko he loved.
So
you're looking for your skin
That you never did fit in
While
she sipped on her cocoa she couldn't hide her true form any longer.
She was home alone, well the Killing Perfection was here as well, but
she could take him. Kagome let her true form come out. She looked
just like the woman-child in her drawing, she was the woman-child in
her drawing.
You
can't hide when you're turned inside out
Love is looking for you
now
Sesshomaru walked down the isle of picture to stop beside another one. This one was of a man with the same silver eyes as Kagome, but these eyes held a look of regret and love, such a strange combination. The closer Sesshomaru looked the more familar the man looked. "General Hige." Golden eyes widen at the realization. Kagome truly was a demon. Hadn't General Hige died in a battle protcting his younger daughter. Hadn't Kagome told him her father died protecting her against an attack. Didn't she also say, that she always secretly thought if she had been stronger he'd be alive.
Maybe
you've been burning
But you can't blow out a flame that you can't
find
The tears hadn't all dried up, but she just felt so dehydrated and tired. Kagome walked over and fixed poured herself another cup of hot cocoa. She flopped back down and stared out the window. She'd been doing the same thing since she got back, put water on, work on drawing, pour a cup of cocoa, drink while working on her drawing. Now that she finished her drawing all she had left to do was drink the cocoa. She couldn't go back and face InuYasha.
Maybe
you've been thirsty
But the rain just ain't enough when you're
this dry
So you're running from the water
The taiyoukai walked the remainder of the hallway to find Kagome in the kitchen drinking some sort of sweet smelling beverage. "May I?" She gave a small nod in response. He walked over poured himself a cup of the brown liquid. After he did he sat down across from his love and silently looked her true form over. She had to be twice as beautiful as ever, but her eyes...he had to fix them. The more he thought about her the more the he loved everything about her. He loved her fragilness, her stuborness, the fire that burned in her eyes when she was angry, and especaily the way she treated her son and his Rin.
And
the fire's getting hotter
I think you better find some level
ground
Love is looking for you now
Love is looking for you
now
"Why are you staring at me?" She looked at him square in the eyes and he repressed a shudder, her eyes had lost the frozen edge and now hiden tears filled them to the brim, to stuborn to fall. "This Sesshomaru is simply looking at your true form." Kagome looked into his eyes to see a hidden spark, a spark she'd seen in Miroku's eyes when he looked at her sister. "I see." She crossed her arms "And was that Sesshomaru think of this Kagome's form?" Sesshomaru mentally sighed, her sarcasm was running up to par. "It is...acceptable." She saw a gleam in the taiyoukia's eyes. "I just do not understand why you hide your form."
Maybe
you been wearing
The shoes that someone else is wearing now
"It is my father's form not mine. My mother is ningen, I am not. My brother is ningen, I am not. I most fit in this time, I must fit in in the past. Simple as that." Sesshomaru was slightly puzzled. He could understand why she must hide herself here, but why in the past. He knew how she could be a demon, truly powerful demons can make there offspring full blooded humans or demons if they chose. Sesshomaru's father had chose to keep InuYasha a half-breed so he wouldn't have to be second to his brother in the demon and if he was human he would be weak. "Kagome, you can't run away from yourself. It will always be there."
Maybe
you've been swearing forever might have already run out
You can't
love yourself at the expense of someone else
You can't hide a liar
from the truth
He saw the anger burn in his love ones eyes at his comment, "Sesshomaru, you and my mother are the only two people who know what I really am. And I plan to keep it that way. Understand." Sesshomaru looked her sqaure in the eyes, his golden eyes cold from anger as well. "Your father, General Hige, would not want you to treat his gift as a curse. He would want you to treat it like the blessing it is. He gave it to you out of love."
Love
is looking for you
Love is looking for you
"Who could love me? The man I love hates me." Sesshomaru eyes flashed red for a moment, "My pitifull half brother hasn't moved from the well since you left. All he's been doing is moping. Your son and sister have been heartbroken and the monk as been upset as well. There are more human and demons then you think who love you Kagome."
I've been looking for you
He saw the tears start to fall again from his love's eyes, he walked over and pulled her in a hug, "Kagome..." he sighed "trust me. Who ever doesn't love you is stupid."
Baby
I've been lookin...
I've been looking for you
Kagome turned and looked the demon in the eyes, noticing that they were the same color of the sun shining in her picture, a soft white and gold mix. "Thank you." The miko-demon smiled for the first time in what seemed to be a long time.
