~Kagome's p.o.v~
You stopped dancing to see everyone was watching Neon and Sesshomaru dance so close. His eyes were closed and she had hers wide open, blushing furiously. You smiled as you moved to Sango, "Wow they look great together." You whispered to the awed Sango.
"We better dance too, so the setting isn't ruined." She suggested to you, taking Miroku's offered hand. Though before you could dance once again you saw Sesshomaru ever so gently twirl her holding her close once more.
"He Shippo I think I'm going to just watch. You can see if Rin will dance with you. I think Jaken passed out." You said still awed by the two demons performance.
"Ok Kagome." With that Shippo went to ask Rin to dance.
You started to think, 'Everyone has someone but me. *Sigh* I wonder if Sesshomaru and Inuyasha could stop their differences to hold a dance just like this. Maybe not in a field but still. I bet she loves dancing with him.' You sighed again as a small smile formed on your face. "They look perfect in the fire light."
~Sesshomaru's p.o.v~
'Her heart is racing and seems to pound faster the closer I hold her.' You thought. That make you tighten your hold, as you smelled honey, and roses. Her scent, you would never forget it. 'These feelings I am experiencing. They seem so new. And happen when I'm near her.' You slid your hand up her back as your hand met the back of her neck. With your other hand you placed her hand on your shoulder, parallel to her other one.
You now had a hand at the back of her neck and another wrapped at her waist, pushing her against you. You could feel her head resting on your chest. You stopped moving to look down at the cat demon in your arms, you never even seen her demon form, and you felt right about her. She truly was becoming your friend, and you feared more. But something seemed off about her. For her friends had cat demon names but hers was so odd. "Neon isn't your true name is it?" she shook her head. "Then what is?"
She looked up with her neon green eyes gazing into yours. "I-I can't say." She whispered, pulling out of your grasp. She looked sadden now and for an odd reason you regretted asking.
~Your p.o.v~
'No one ever asked me my real name. Only presumed that Neon was my name, but its my nickname. To hide my royal blood.' "I-I am tired I think I'll sit out for a bit." You lied sitting next to Kagome. You started fidgeting with your fingers as you.
You noted the shock in Kagome's eyes, "Sango guys I think it's time to leave. Inuyasha might be worried." Kagome said catching everyone's attention. The small group nodded and soon walked off, thanking you for the fun.
Sesshomaru walked in front of you kneeling down to your level as you sat on the grass, "Why hide your name?"
Nikyu walked over, "Because if anyone learns her true name the Lord of the Northern lands will try to kill her." She explained sitting next to you holding onto the violin. You looked even more sadden and fought back tears.
Then Amikyu joined you on the other side, "She hates being called Neon, for her mother, called her that. I guess you know why. But also her mother was cruel to and ashamed of her own daughter, locking her away during certain festivities, and treated her as a slave. Doing what ever bidding was asked. Even the biddings of Noble demons." She continued, Sesshomaru looked at you with cold eyes as you expected.
"If I tell you my name I would flee these lands. Go across the seas and never return." You said softly, standing up and walking away.
"And where are you going?" He asked you.
"Away your acting weird." You said honestly. You saw him as a friend like you do Nikyu and Amikyu, but he is acting strange. Making you blush, and your heart race. Nikyu and Amikyu started to follow you, but you glanced back coldly, "Alone."
With that you were gone, away from the group of five you scented and away from the group where Sesshomaru is. You broke into a sprint, running as fast as your legs could carry you. Only to stop as you met the ocean. When you were young you hated the water, but you learned to love it. As you walked into the waves, memories with your father raced into your head.
