Puppy Love Side 6 Note

Lord Sesshomaru tucked his sweet little girl Sadi into her crib. The toddler cooed up at her father quietly, her eye lids already starting to slide down in sleep. She held onto his clawed index finger tightly. His amber eyes softened as Sadi drifted off to sleep letting her own tiny clawed hand fall onto the bed.

Sesshomaru made sure she was asleep before turning on her baby radio which was in his bedroom.

He closed the door silently only letting in the halls light with a crack and flipped the light switch off.

He made his way down his castles halls before stopping in front of his son's room.

The teenager had headphones on his neck as he read the newspaper. He looked up as his father entered the room and turned the music down.

It was already 11 pm and in the Tashio Castle all living bodies was to sleep except the few guards that stood watch.

Chris set aside his headphones and paper and got under his bed's covers.

Sesshomaru pulled the blanket over his sons shoulders and ruffled his hair lightly, his sign of affection toward the teen, "You did well in training today son. Sleep well."

"Thanks dad. See you in the morning" Chris said as he watched his father stop at his bedroom door. They nodded to the other and Sesshomaru's flipped the light switch off and closed the door.

As he head to bed himself, the great dog demon couldn't help but wonder how he got such a good life. He had a beautiful wife, two amazing children, and a home that was elegant. Not to mention he made friends with his half brother and the wolf prince.

All was good.

When he entered the master bedroom he noticed his wife standing outside on their balcony.

He crossed the room, kicking his shoes off, and untying his god awful tie a bit.

Lori turned at his approached and smiled at him "Good evening milord."

He wrapped his arms around her waist and put his head on her shoulder, "Good evening my lady."

Lori sighed "Kids in bed?"

"Of course. Sadi went down peacefully and Chris was ready from today's training."

"You did good. He pushed his own training a bit to far though didn't he?"

"He's a Tashio man, we always go to far."

The small chuckle was from Lori was she stared out into the darkened night.

"What is your wandering mind thinking about" Sesshomaru's voice said as it washed over Lori's form.

She sighed and leaned into his chest a bit "I miss dancing around like when we we're young."

Sesshomaru looked at his wife "You miss dancing with me?"

She raised an eyebrow in knowing "I know it's silly but I do. The freedom of our feet moving around gracefully. The feeling of everyone watching us. I miss it."

That made him think of a plan but he sighed "Come love, time for bed."

Lori sighed sadly and did what she was told, retreating back into the castle to rest for the next day.

Not a week later Sesshomaru surprised everyone by sending invitations to his extended family and friends to a ball.

The night of said gala, Sesshomaru stood in a suit smiling as his family came in, dressed to perfection.

Squeals were heard as the three best friends reunited.

"Omg Tara! That dress is sooo beautiful" Becca exclaimed.

"Not as gorgeous as yours" Tara smiled as she looked her friend up and down.

Lori grinned ear to ear as the two friends squealed at the dress she wore. They all complimented each other and soon the children were running around playing while the teens were trying to act mature. Guests of high breeding and power had assembled for a ball that seemed to delight everyone. The modern DJ played all the right songs and even took request. Most of the time people were dancing and if they weren't the host was urging them to.

Before long the DJ announced the last song and for everyone to clear the dance floor for the host.

Sesshomaru took a mic and smiled at the crowd "Thank you all for coming and making this the best ball yet!"

Applause and cheers were heard.

"Not every long ago a woman told me she missed dancing with everyone watching her. Tonight I invite her to dance with me out here. Where is my wife?"

Tara and Becca looked around for their old friend, but the blonde was sneaky. She had slipped away from them. A spotlight from the DJ found her by the punch bowl, standing there embarrassed.

Sesshomaru only smiled and held out his hand "Come Lori let's dance was if we we're 16 again."

The crowd clapped as Lori, blushing, made her way to her husband and took his hand.

The DJ played "Save the last dance for me" by Michael Buble.

Sesshomaru twirled his wife close to him and swayed with her to the music. The look in her dancing eyes said it all. She couldn't be happier.

Other couples walked into the dance floor and swayed with them.

The evening ended as the finally notes faded away. Lori leaned up and whispered into Sesshomaru's ear "Thank you so much Sesshomaru. You always amaze me."

He smiled down at her and kissed her as the whole assembly watched with smiles on their faces.
