Akura-ou X Kagome

(7)

She walked alone from her friends down the dirt roads, her shoes scuffed the wet dirt and it graded on his ears. He walked besides her silently, her strange thing she called an umbrella hung loosely from his hand and rested on his shoulder, covering the both of them.

He was irritated, extremely so: Tomoe was planning on turning into a human; Tomoe vanished; and the War God (or whatever) was hunting him down and planning to throw him to Yomi-no-Kuni.

He snorted as a thought ran through his mind: "Like hell they would."

He had happened upon the miko by chance, and after a spar which left another hole in his hand a few scratches on her abdomen, they called a temporary truce and now there they walked in the rain.

It was rather close proximity, her shoulder touching his arm.

He didn't mind much though; the way the sun struggled to peak out from the gray clouds, the way the leaves bristled with the heavy rain drops hitting on them, even to the way a few drops clung to Kagome's bangs.

Akura-ou felt weightless in that one moment, and if it was the divine's power that did it, well he may just turn into a praying man.

He scoffed at this notion audibly, his cheeks caught heat when he saw her questioning stare and her bright blue eyes that blinked innocently yet knowingly at the same time.

He wanted to grab her cheek then, and add another scratch (just one) to her fine collection of scars that were added just hours before by his claws- his hands. Her flesh must've been soft because his claws tore right through it.

But a part of him just wanted to touch it, to see if it really was.
