Chapter 15
"Well I sh *yawn* d get going"
"Why, why don't you sleep here tonight, it can be like a sleep over"
"Nah I wouldn't want to get in the way when Sesshomaru comes over" Hana said with a wink
"D..d..don't be silly! He may not even come…"
"Don't worry, he will come see you"
"How do you know?"
"I just know these things"
"But Hana…"
Before Takara had a chance to finish her sentence Hana was already out of the room with the door closing behind her, Takara stared blankly at the closed door for a while before she went back to pacing around her room. Sesshomaru was on the other side of the house looking out of one of the windows in the hall.
"So your not going to talk to her" came a tired voice
Sesshomaru turned around and saw Hana standing behind him yawning.
"I don't know what happened.. *yawn* but you cant just mess with peoples feelings like that, demon lord or not, you have no right to.. to *yawn* no right to act like an idiot" Hana said yawning and rubbing her eyes
Hana walk down the hall and away from Sesshomaru leaving him very annoyed and sightly confused, he didn't know wether to be annoyed at her speaking to him like or annoyed at himself for allowing her to speak to him like that.
"Foolish human has no idea what she is talking about"
Sesshomaru walked off towards his room when he could hear the faint sound of crying, he followed the sound against his better judgment. He followed the sound until he came to Takara's door, he stood there not really sure what to do now, Sesshomaru thought about going into her room and comforting her,
"Idiot" Came her muffled voice
He left to door and walked into his own room.
"I'm the last person she would want to see"
Sesshomaru closed the door behind him and walked over to his window, as he was nearing his window he noticed something different about his room, he spent the next few minutes trying to figure out what it could be.
"Its gone.."
He walked to the empty space that was once taken by a table and two chairs, he couldn't figure out where they had possible gone to when he noticed a small folded piece of paper on the floor.
"Find us if you can!"
"This smells like that servant girl.. she couldn't of gone far with them... Takara maybe? I have no choice but to see her now... only to get what was rightfully mine"
Despite his thoughts Sesshomaru knew the only reason he was once again standing in front of Takara's room was because he wanted to be in there with her, just like she wanted him to be there. He knocked at the door and stood penitently for Takara to open the door, Takara was shocked when she heard the knock at her door, she stood up and answered the door expecting to only see Hana there but was surprised by the sight of Sesshomaru before her.
"Lord Sesshomaru… what are you doing here?"
"You invited me here" he answered remembering the message Kyo told him
"That's right.. I did, I never thought he would show though"
"Right of course… umm well, come in then"
Takara stood aside allowing Sesshomaru to pass by and walk into her room; he noticed straight away the table and chairs that were now placed in her room.
"What is it you wanted to talk to me about?" Takara asked before Sesshomaru had a chance to say anything
"Nothing.. There was nothing I wanted to talk about, I just wanted to see her... but I cannot tell her that"
"Look! The moon, it's so pretty tonight" Takara burst out running to the window
"And she said she was not human" he smiled slightly
There was a full moon outside shinning its light down over the forest creating what looked like clouds below them.
"You can see the moon better outside"
"Yes I know that, but as you know I can't leave" Takara said slightly annoyed
"Is he here only to taunt me? First he invites me to the garden and now this! Why must He be so cruel"
"What do you mean you can't leave?"
Takara gave him a 'as if you don't know' look then walked over to a chair and sat down with her arms crossed.
"What?"
"Are you telling me you really don't know?" she asked amazed
"Don't know what!" he growled
"As punishment for running away I am confined to my room… I don't know why no one has told you"
"Probably to scared to say anything to him... but why wouldn't lady Rikana?"
"My mother did this"
"No it's was the other lady of the castle" Takara said rolling her eyes "you know for someone who is soooo great, you sure say some silly things"
"Perhaps I have been around you to much"
"Every time! Every damn time, you would think I could just once say something right"
"No that can't be it… must be them…"
"Who?" he asked after a while of silence
"Never mind…"
"Tell me what you were going to say"
"I can not"
"You were going to say it's from the demons"
She looked at him with worry and shock printed clearly on her face.
"Well you may be right; they are not good enough for this lord"
"Is anyone good enough for you?"
"Yes"
"Who? I mean what would she be like?"
"Someone that has great power of course"
"In other words not me"
"Oh I see… is there really a person like that?"
"Yes"
"She is standing in front of me"
"Well if you want power then I would suggest marrying either Lady Shikah or Mistress Hitori"
"How could you even suggest such a thing!"
"Well then who are you going to choose?"
"Who would you choose?"
"None of them…"
"None"
"I wouldn't marry someone just to keep some land; I would wait for my perfect match"
"And who would that be"
"I can't believe he is asking me this!"
"Well… someone that I can be open and honest with about my past… someone that loves me for who I am someone who wouldn't want me to change"
"Someone like me?"
