Thank you for staying with me for my prolonged absence.
I do not own Inuyasha characters.
Chapter 6 – Back at Home
~Sesshomaru~
It's been about a couple of weeks, Kagome has been acting really withdrawn around him. She wouldn't talk to him unless he asked her a direct question. Although he has noticed that her and his brother has been getting closer. That's the only time he hears her laugh - when she's with Inuyasha, or Rin, even that weird healer Sean. Maybe it's just him. Maybe she's still mad at him.
Sesshomaru decides to make it up to her.
~ Kagome ~
Every time she looks at him, it's a reminder of how he let her down. He let his mate attack her.
He let me get hurt.
She wanted to get out. She hates Sesshomaru. She hates this place. She wants to go home. She has been feeling so alone ever since the incident with Shania. Okay, maybe she has Inuyasha and Rin and Sean, but she really thought because of the way he kissed her that she had a connection with Sesshomaru.
Obviously not.
She NEEDED to get out. Her youkai was screaming to emerge itself in water, it wanted to free itself. But there is no where big enough within the castle grounds, to hold all the pent up energy she felt.
Fuck it.
She jumps in the water. But it's different. Before, when she jumped in the water she would panic a little, feeling that she would run out of air and drown. Now, she doesn't feel the need to breathe, nor does she feel the need to panic. Instead, she felt comforted, at home. She felt like she was still in Tokyo, underneath her warm covers, waiting for her mom to wake her up to a nice warm breakfast.
Kagome.
Kagome.
KAGOME!
~Sesshomaru~
He had been thinking about what to do so that Kagome would forgive him. Some days he would go try to find her and talk, but she was always busy, or with Inuyasha. But today is the day. He finally found something worthy for her. And tonight he will show her how much she truly means to him.
He went to go find her. But as he was looking for her, he noticed her scent was toward the water. He looked, and there she was. As an inuyoukai, Sesshomaru's base form is a dog. Since Kagome is a mizuyoukai, her base form is water. And although he couldn't see her, he knew she was there, one with the water.
He calls out to her.
No response.
Louder, this time.
Still, no response.
KAGOME!
~Kagome~
She felt like she was piecing back together, like opening your eyes after a really deep sleep. When she opened her eyes she expected to see her mother, warm and welcoming. But all she saw was Sesshomaru.
That's it? Where's mom? Where's my breakfast? Oh yeah. I'm not at home anymore, I'm living in a castle, with a man that cares so little for me that he would let another woman harm me.
She broke down, rushing to Sesshomaru, not caring that he had a mate, or that she was mad at him. She missed home, she missed her mom. She needed someone to hold her, and love her, tell her that everything's going to be okay.
~Sesshomaru~
As he held her in his arms, he looked at her.
Helpless, lonely.
How could he hurt her?
Why was he so awful to someone such as her. Her beautiful blue eyes, her dark hair, and round face that was home to the reddest lips that he's ever kissed.
He kissed her.
She threw all her pain, and loneliness, and wacked out emotions into that kiss, and he took it.

Mizu - water
The next chapter shouldn't take too long to get up. It's just a little emotional for me to write, and I want to get it perfect.
I also want to say, that although I love the comments, I get very inspired to write when one gives me criticism, or tells me SPECIFICALLY what they like about my story. So I can add more of it. Okay. That's my rant for today.
