Sesshomaru's Red Eyes
Chapter 8:
Seeing Eye to Eye
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
"Well, Miroku, are you just gonna sit there?"
"What are you taking about, InuYasha?"
"Sesshomaru can't be trusted, why are you letting Sango talk to him alone?"
"InuYasha, Sango can take care of herself just fine, she's stronger than you think!" Kagome said.
"Oh yeah, how so?"
"Well," Kagome began, "Who else do you think brought Sesshomaru down after you passed out?"
"Huh?"
"That's right, Smarty Pants, so don't go assuming things that you don't know about!"
"May we please try to avoid anymore arguments? At least for today?" Miroku asked.
"And you!" Kagome said angrily, rounding on him, "Why'd you have to do that to Sango's shampoo! That wasn't very nice, Miroku!"
Miroku recoiled slightly, bracing himself for a physical attack, but it didn't come. "You know me, Kagome, I just can't help myself. Besides, I was just trying to get her to smell even better. I've achieved it well, if I do say so myself."
"Yeah, that's another thing you might want to worry about, Miroku." InuYasha said grimly.
"Why would I worry about that?"
"Use your brain, stupid!" InuYasha barked, "It's perfectly clear that Sesshomaru has some sort of odd interest in Sango!"
"I haven't the faintest idea what you're talking about. Sesshomaru seems to be acting just like he always does, except he isn't trying to kill you yet."
"Oh, so you didn't notice that he was paying an awful lot of attention to her!"
"You're imagining things."
InuYasha huffed, "I just thought you'd like to know, seeing as you kissed her last night!"
"Awww!" Kagome cooed, "That's so sweet!"
Miroku smiled, "Hai, it's true."
"Yeah well, I could smell her on you this morning and I could guess the rest for myself."
Kagome walked up behind Miroku. She felt like annoying him. "Miroku and Sango sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G!"
"Ugh, your singing leaves absolutely nothing to behold, Kagome, I'm getting out of here!"
"Miroku, wait, I'll stop," Kagome laughed.
"Yeah, before you give me a headache!" the hanyou barked.
"Ha, ha, very funny, InuYasha. Miroku, come SIT back down here."
InuYasha was smashed into the floor, "WILL YOU STOP DOING THAT! YOU SAID YOURSELF THAT MY INJURIES NEEDED TIME TO HEAL!"
"Oh really? I thought you said you didn't have any injuries and you were fine." Kagome answered slyly.
InuYasha just sat there fuming, giving Kagome a death glare that was very familiar...

Sesshomaru and Sango were in the garden. "Do you come out here very often?" Sango asked.
"No, this garden would never be here if Rin hadn't asked for it. I am not in this castle very often, I always have other important business to attend to."
"Then why are we here now? What is there to talk about that you can't discuss in front of the others?"
"I generally don't like to be in the company of others, I thought you would know that by now."
Sango nodded. She had no complaints. It was a beautiful day. Summer had just started, and the cherry trees in the garden were in full bloom. The scent from all the flowers was overwhelming. Sango closed her eyes and smelled the air.
'Strange human' Sesshomaru thought.
A light wind blew across the garden, sending cherry petals dancing through the air. "You are lucky to live in such a place," Sango said dreamily.
"I told you, I am not here very often, I haven't the time."
"You should make time"
Sesshomaru was tired of all this foolishness. He would delight in bringing her back to earth. Not to mention be entertained by the look on her face. "I prefer the scent of honey to flowers."
Sango's eyes shot open, "What!" she said sharply.
"You heard what I said."
Sango's face suddenly became angry. Sesshomaru didn't know why, he really enjoyed seeing her like that, patches of red on her cheeks, shaking in fury, hands balled in fists. "You baka youkai, why don't you just tell me what the hell you're trying to prove?"
Sesshomaru raised an eyebrow, and smirked. "Think of it however you want to."
Sango didn't like being toyed with. She responded in the action she would have taken if it were Miroku that said that. But, he grabbed her by the wrist, and lifted her off the ground by it, "I am not so easy to harm as your pathetic monk."
"MY pathetic monk!"
"That is correct."
Sango's eyes narrowed dangerously, "That isn't true, I hurt your shoulder to the point of bruising it just yesterday."
"How can a human possess so much energy as you? Don't you tire of it?"
"Hardly, now let me go, before I become cross."
"As you wish"
He set her down, and she rubbed her wrist, "What the hell are you trying to do, dislocate my other shoulder!"
"You told me I should try to have fun."
XOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXOXO
"I'll leave you two alone, I'm sure you'll have plenty to talk about! Or should I say do!"
"Miroku!" Kagome blushed.
"Yeah, yeah, monk, we get it," InuYasha said, "Spare us please." Then he looked at Kagome. 'She's blushing? But why?' he thought. Then he gulped.
"What's wrong, InuYasha? You look a little green." Miroku mocked.
"SHUT UP!" Miroku got the message, "Farewell then, you two." InuYasha growled.
"DAMN, WHAT IS EVERYONE'S PROBLEM TODAY?"
"InuYasha, don't be so harsh, everyone was really worried about you yesterday."
"Its not exactly like they're showing it!" he yelped.
Kagome giggled. "Huh?" InuYasha said.
She walked next to him and scratched his left ear, "When you get mad, your ears twitch."
"Hey! Stop that!" 'It does feel good, though,' he thought.
"You don't sound very convincing!" she teased.
"Oh yeah, then how about this!" He proceeding in giving her a tickle attack, sending waves of laughter running out of her mouth.
"Stop it, InuYasha!"
"Are we even?"
"Yes- alright- we're even-just stop it please!"
"I thought so." He stopped, and without warning, Kagome arms latched around InuYasha's neck. His face softened immensely, "Kagome?"
"Yes InuYasha?"
"You're squeezing the life out of me." he said, gagging for breath.
"Oh, sorry." She let go of him, "Guess I don't know my own strength."
"I never said you had to let go."
Kagome smiled. "Of course not." She wrapped her arms around his neck again, just not as tightly. She rested her chin on his shoulder. "InuYasha, you should go back to bed, you're injured."
InuYasha sighed. "You're right, especially since I won't be sleeping tonight. But Kagome, will you sit and talk with me for awhile?"
"Hai, InuYasha, I will." They walked out of the room hand in hand.

"Your idea of fun is completely barbaric!" Sango yelled.
"Fair enough, but there is something that I wish to know."
"Which is?"
Sesshomaru gave Sango the kind of look the gave her the night before, as if he were trying to see through her soul. "Was it my imagination, or were you rather forceful when you were speaking with me last night?" Sango inhaled deeply.
"The truth," Sesshomaru said softly.
"The truth," Sango repeated, "I see...the thing is."
"Never mind, by your demeanor and your incessant stumbling, I can tell that it is true."
"Well, I was mad at Miroku, perhaps it was wrong of me."
"So that's why you did it? To get back at your precious monk."
"No-I- stop putting words in my mouth! I want to be your friend, Sesshomaru, if only you would permit me to do such."
Sesshomaru closed his eyes. A look that was almost peaceful came about him, "Stop it," he said.
"Stop it- stop what?" Now he inhaled deeply. Sango had a creeping suspicion that he was smelling her again. "I'm a human," she said.
"Hai, Sango, I know that." Sango took a step back, "A human, Sesshomaru, you hate them."
"I know that as well."
"I think I should go now."
"Go? Why is that?"
"Because, you are acting very perculiar, and quite frankly, I don't wish to be in your presence at the moment."
"Be calm, Sango, I can control myself. Can you?" he added.
"What are you suggesting! I hunt down and kill your kind like the pathetic dogs they are."
Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed, he did not appriciate Sango's use of the word "dog." He was a dog demon afterall. "I do the same to your pathetic human race- that's why it is strange."
"What-that you suddenly have changed so much?"
"No, but that is also something that must be pondered carefully."
"What is wrong with you?"
"That is none of your concern," he shot back angrily.
"Why won't you look at me?" Sango yelled.
"Sango, leave me, and do not try to speak to me again."
"Are you going to be alright?"
"Sango, heed my demands and leave."
"As you wish...Lord of the Western Lands," she answed just as venemously. She took a few steps but turned back to him, "Oh and another thing, you look a wreck, take care of yourself."
"Forgive me if I somehow doubt that. Now leave." Sango nodded and took off in a half run.

Sesshomaru's POV
'This cannot be happening! A human! The very wretched beasts that I kill by the hundreds. And a slayer no doubt! Am I cursed? Is this my destiny? Am I to suffer the same fate of my father? Or are these mere trials and tribulations that I have to overcome? I hate humans.' he thought again, 'I despise them with every breath I take. Yet somehow, I am not able to bring myself to hate her. I knew there was something strange about her from the moment I saw her yesterday!'
"Curse this day," he said to himself softly. But in his mind he found himself praising it. Torn between two selfs, he opened his eyes to watch Sango enter the castle. The retinas in his eyes were blood red...
