Sesshomaru was just getting out of the shower and drying off when he suddenly heard a thud in Kagome's room, he wrapped the towel around his waist and tied it, he opened the adjacent door to the bathroom, finding Kagome sprawled out in the middle of the floor in a thin black piece of material, he also saw the guards coming in to check out the noise.
"Back to your station," Sesshomaru emerged in nothing but a towel in his humanoid form, they nodded and shut the door, he heard Kagome curse as she sat up, Sesshomaru gave her hand out to stop him.
"I know, all you demons think alike, useless, weak, pathetic human, cant even make it to the bathroom on her own," Kagome spat out, she carefully pulled herself to her own feet.
"Let me tell you something, I may be human but I sure as hell am not weak, pathetic and useless," Kagome huffed out on wobbling legs.
"I never said you were," Sesshomaru in a monotone voice, Kagome narrowed her eyes at him and carefully continued to the bathroom, successfully making it by herself.
~Strange miko.~ Sesshomaru raising a brow and leaving Kagome's room, Sango poked her head out of her and Miroku's room,
"Sesshomaru?" Sango smirking as she saw he was practically naked,
"Nothing happened Sango," Sesshomaru snorted,
"For your information I wasn't thinking anything like that, is Kagome alright?" Sango huffed.
"She fell going to the bathroom, go back to who you were doing," Sesshomaru smelling Miroku's scent drip off of her.
"Demons with their keen scent of smell, just check on her and make sure she's alright would ya?" Sango holding a sheet around her,
"Would you not like to, after all you consider her family," Sesshomaru smirked slightly, knowing she was naked in the sheet that she hugged tightly around her,
"You would like that wouldn't ya," Sango huffed, slamming the door back,
"Makes no difference to me, humans do not interest me demon slayer," Sesshomaru mumbled as he walked back to his room next door.
"I know of one that does!" Sango opening the door and shouted. Sesshomaru paused for a minute and then turned the doorknob and walked into his room and slammed it shut. Kagome fixed herself a nice hot bath, not bothering to lock any of the doors, she was dying for a bath of her own, Sango had been giving her sponge baths, saying she needed more rest.
"Ah, yes, this is perfect after a three year nap," Kagome leaning back in the tub, she soaked for a little while in her private bubble bath and started to wash her body. Sesshomaru couldn't sleep because of the miko mumbling something, he huffed and hoped she would quiet down in a few minutes, to his surprise she stopped talking five minutes later,
~Thank god, maybe I can get some…what the hell? I cant hear her heart beating.~ Sesshomaru threw the covers back and moved to the door of the bathroom, he tried the door, it was thankfully unlocked. He cracked the door not wanting for an outburst to take place but noticed that Kagome was nowhere to be seen, he felt in the water for a body and found her and grabbed her out, he placed her naked body on the cold tile floor, he checked for a pulse to make sure she wasn't breathing and started mouth to mouth on her.
"Come on Kagome, you cant do this to us again," Sesshomaru pumping her chest, he gave her mouth to mouth again and again and the last time he gave her mouth to mouth there was a spark of energy like an electric shock, and she started coughing up water. Sesshomaru held her head up in the crook of his arm and got her body alleviated so she could get the water out easily. She slowly opened her eyes and stared at him, he was almost naked, he wore nothing but his boxers.
"Sesshomaru?" Kagome gazing into his golden amber eyes,
"Lets get you dried off and back to bed," Sesshomaru's voice holding no emotions. Kagome looked down at herself, she was completely naked.
"What happened?" Kagome running her fingers through her tangled wet hair that still smelt of human from the wreck three years ago.
"You fell asleep in the bath, I suggest getting Sango to help you take a real shower in the morning," Sesshomaru sitting her on the toilet seat lid cover and giving her a towel to wrap up in, he grabbed another towel and dried her hair, it was still matted with blood and some of the blood was rubbing off into the towel fibers. Sesshomaru began to feel sorry for Kagome.
"You stopped breathing, I gave you mouth to mouth," Sesshomaru stated, Kagome stared at the tiled floor,
"I'm sorry," Kagome apologizing,
"Excuse me?" Sesshomaru raising an eyebrow,
"I'm sorry I don't remember who you are, you seem like a nice yokai," Kagome glancing up at his chest. He wore a silver chain with a vile on it with a pink jewel, he was quiet,
"Maybe its for the best you don't remember me, and its yours, I'm keeping it for you till you are well enough to wish it away," Sesshomaru seeing her stare at the vile.
"Oh, um, thank you for that and for saving my life, twice, I have a feeling that thing as small as it is takes a lot of responsibility to protect," Kagome stated as she yawned.
"How you would I was protecting it?" Sesshomaru confused,
"You hold it on a necklace and know where it is at all times," Kagome explained as she stood on wobbly legs. Sesshomaru held her still by the waist,
"Careful, you haven't used those legs in over three years," Sesshomaru gently picking her up and carrying her to her bed.
"Um, thanks, I'm…I'm sorry about earlier its just most demons I help, er…did help always thought I was weak because I was human," Kagome softly.
"I thought you were weak when you came into my life, you have proved one demon that some humans aren't as weak as I thought they were, you survived a wreck that all other humans died in," Sesshomaru sitting on the edge of her bed. Kagome frowned,
"Um, yeah, I guess, I didn't want to die just yet, there's still some good that I can do, my life itself hasn't been too good but I have my health, I have my daughter, and my good friends, so I guess I really cant complain, but I would like to have what Sango and Miroku have but I guess I wasn't meant to have that, anyways I guess I should stop having a pity party for myself and get some sleep," Kagome lying down, Sesshomaru pulled the covers over her naked body. She stared at him, he grabbed an extra blanket and pillow and made himself comfortable on the sofa couch which was a lot more comfortable than his bed.
"Sesshomaru, you found Amaya didn't you?" Kagome asked,
"Yes," Sesshomaru staring at her,
"Where was she?" Kagome laying her head on her pillow and staring at him,
"I found her in the graveyard, someone thought she was dead and buried her while she was still alive, she had dug out of her coffin by herself," Sesshomaru explained to her,
"Amaya, oh god," Kagome jerking up out of the bed, Sesshomaru came over and rubbed her arms,
"She is fine, you saw her," Sesshomaru explained.
"She has just been through a lot though, no one wanted her, she was living in an orphanage," Kagome softly,
"And now she is alive and she has a mother who cares deeply for her," Sesshomaru getting her to lay down again, he covered her up. "Thank you for finding her and bringing her here," Kagome seriously,
"I wasn't going to leave her there alone, miko, if you want a family, one like your friends have you will have to get over your fear of the males treating you as Inuyasha has in the past, not all males are unfaithful like the half breed," Sesshomaru getting comfortable on the couch again.
"So, what exactly are you doing?" Kagome asked him,
"It appears to be that I am laying on the sofa couch," Sesshomaru being a smartass, Kagome rolled her eyes,
"Yeah, in my room, why is that?" Kagome raising an eyebrow,
"Well, because you just woke up from a three year nap and it will take a while to get your bearings back, that and Sango wanted me to watch over you," Sesshomaru glancing over at her, Kagome snorted,
"I'm not a baby, I don't need a babysitter, and since when did a demon take orders from a demon slayer?" Kagome growled, Sesshomaru smirked up at the ceiling,
"Just go to sleep little miko," Sesshomaru placing his arms behind his head and laying there awake for a few minutes.
