Sesshomaru's Red Eyes
Chapter 6:
Mixed Emotions of Mine
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
"You're actually going to tell me? Well that was easy."
"If you're suggesting that I'm giving in, then you are sadly mistaken.I just don't want to put up with your incessant arguing."
"So," Sango urged him on, "Why do you hate him, after all, he has done nothing to you."
Sesshomaru walked back to the willow tree's trunk, when he had gotten there he said 3 words-"Because I can."
Sango shook her head sadly, "That was completely transparent, Sesshomaru."
"Lord Sesshomaru, Sango, and how so?"
"Oh please, I couldn't be any easier to tell that you were lying! For one thing, you had to walk over there to say it- and for another, I can tell from your eyes!"
"My eyes? What difference do they make?"
"Eyes, SESSHOMARU, are the windows to the soul! Despite the fact that you keep your emotions hidden well, they do show up sometimes you know!"
"I have no need for emotions, they are shallow, and rather unnecessary"
"Why do you feel that way?" Sango thought she understood now, but was she giving Sesshomaru too much credit? "Is it, that is to say, is it because of-"
"Spit it out, Sango, I nor you for that matter have all day!" he cut her off sharply. He turned his back to her. Sango shook her head slowly, she must be right. She walked directly behind him, "Is it because of your mother?" she asked quietly.
"I do not appreciate discussing such matters with a human wench that I have just met."
"You don't have to be bitter about it."
"I shall do as I please, I am Lord of the Western Lands."
"I only thought you should talk about it, for your own sake."
"No, the only reason you are talking to me right now is to assist InuYasha in some way. Do not lie to me, Sango, just as you can do for me, I can tell when you are lying." He turned to face her again.
"It may have started out like that, but now, I just realized that you may NOT be the cold, heartless youkai I thought you were." Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow, more out of surprise than anything else. "Now do you believe that I am lying?" Sesshomaru gave Sango a powerful stare, as though he were trying to see directly through her. The look in his eyes was far from emotionless now. (Author's note: ooohh- shocker!)
"No, you do not lie," he said simply.
"There, you see, not everyone is untrustworthy."
"I never said that I trust you."
Sango bit her bottom lip a bit, "But about your mother..."
Sesshomaru sighed heavily, "Fine then, only since I see that you are not about to give up."
"Thank you."
"You should sit," Sesshomaru began.
"Very well then." Sango sat with her back against the tree, her arms wrapped around her knees.
"What about you?"
Sesshomaru nodded, and sat down across from her. "InuYasha's foolish mortal mother stole my father's affections away from my own mother."
"But that doesn't make it InuYasha's fault!"
"He is a product of Father's betrayal."
"Yes, but is that any legitimate reason to-"
"-Sango, let me finish."
Sango looked down apologetically, "Yes, forgive me, go on."
"My mother died of grief. And it was I who watched her waste away to nothing." Sango must have looked so sympathetic, because it caused Sesshomaru to say, "Spare your pity."
Sango worked up some courage, "I lost my family before my very eyes as well, Naraku had laid a trap to kill us all, but only I survived in the end. Sometimes I wish I hadn't, so I can understand why you would feel that way now."
"How regrettable," Sesshomaru said. He didn't want to make it seem like he might have cared, even a little bit.
"Yes, everyone has something about their past that haunts them. Even you aren't an exception,"
Sango reminded him, "You aren't invincible, no one is, remember that next time you try to seek vengeance."
"I will think of what I want."
Sango shook he head, 'You can tell Sesshomaru and InuYasha are brothers, they both put down the same tough act.' she thought. "But you have always spoken so highly of your father before when I saw you."
"That is out of respect, nothing more."
"Really, Lord of the Western Lands is respectful! Did I imagine it!"
Sesshomaru smirked, "Yes, Sango, I still have my honor." He stood up, and to Sango's surprise, offered her his hand.(Author's note: What the crap? He isn't being a gentleman, is he!Fluffy'sbabe- yeah, I think he is-both hmm)
She hesitantly took it, and he helped her up. She felt awkward about that, but she tried to cover it up, "So, how is your shoulder anyways? Did I hurt you?"
Sesshomaru shook his head exasperatedly, "No human can hurt me. Don't be so foolish, I was beginning to think that you were intelligent."
"Really, I want to know."
"I'm fine."
"I don't believe you...show me your shoulder!" Sesshomaru's eyes widened. "Oh yeah right, get your mind out of the gutter!"
"Well, it was you that said that." Sesshomaru said, in a tone that actually sounded shocked.
"Come on, I want to see how strong I am, and if your shoulder is bruised, then I'll not feel weak."
"I already told you that you were strong for a human."
"Yes, but after today, I have my doubts, because I allowed you to kidnap Kagome and I."
"You had no choice"
"JUST LET ME SEE IT ALREADY!"
"Fine, there, look!" he almost yelled, exposing his shoulder. It WAS black and blue, as well as having a tinge of yellow to it. "Satisfied?"
"Quite, thank you, Lord Sesshomaru, or may I call you Sesshomaru now?"
"Do as you wish."
"Well, I suppose, I'd better be leaving now," Sango said, trying to hide a face that was slightly red from blushing.
"I shall accompany you then."
"O-kay"
"I have to say goodnight to Rin."
"So is she like your adopted daughter?"
"I suppose one could say that"
"That's really NICE of you." Sesshomaru said nothing, just smirked. "One more question, I promise it's the last one."
"Very well, then"
"What exactly IS that...FLUFFY thing?"
Sesshomaru smiled slyly, "Wouldn't you like to know." Sango shook her head and laughed. Sesshomaru was looking at her in a strange way, but she didn't exactly notice it.
"I know what I can call you now- FLUFFY!"
"Don't even consider calling me by that name"
"As you wish," Sango said, with a grin on her face as they stepped inside the castle.
