Chapter Nine

As Sesshomaru dressed Kagome watched him waiting for an answer to her question Sesshomaru chose to stay quite not wanting to say something he wouldn't be able to fix later on or something to end up scaring Kagome away.

Kagome stood sadly and dressed Sesshomaru was leaning against a tree with his head down and eyes closed waiting for Kagome to speak.

"What are you going to tell them, Kagome?"

"What are we going to tell them?"

"It's your choice"

"That's it I've had enough you told them that we'd explain yet your not giving me any help next time you into heat go find a bitch and leave me out it!"

Kagome walked away from Sesshomaru and headed into the forest in the direction of the village.

Sesshomaru watched Kagome leave he was shocked he never would have thought that Kagome of all people would just let go like that. It was very arousing to him.

Kagome was angry and sad at the same time it was like she just told her best friend to get lost. Sesshomaru may not have been her best friend but, he knew things that Kagome couldn't tell Sango.

"What have I done?" Kagome asked herself

'Hey don't go running back to him it'll be just like Inuyasha all over again' Kagome's common sense told her.

"Right, he's the jerk!"

Kagome rejoined the group still angry with Sesshomaru.

"Wench tell me what's the fuck I going on!" Inuyasha demanded jumping down in front of Kagome.

"Sit boy! That was for the wench comment, if you wish to know what's going ask his majesty Lord I'm-so-great-everyone-bow-down-and-look-at-the-stick-up-my-ass Sesshomaru!"

Kagome started back to Keade's hut everyone else watched in shock each wondering what was going on.

The following weeks seemed to drag on to not only Kagome but, everyone else though for each person it was because of a different reason.

For Inuyasha it was because he didn't know what was going on between his shard detector and older half-brother. See that night Kagome came back angry as hell Sesshomaru didn't tell the group anything either and ever since had not spoken to anyone but Jaken and Rin.

For Sango it was because of worry she knew something was wrong with her little sister she could hear her whimpering when she woke in the morning. Sango didn't know what was going on with Kagome but, she could tell that what ever it was it was hurting her deeply.

Miroku was like Sango worried for Kagome as well as Sango too he could tell that Sango wasn't sleeping right and not eating enough he was beginning to worry that with all the walking and fighting they do that Sango wasn't going to last much longer if this kept up.

To anyone else it looked like Shippo and Rin were only copying the moods of the adults that however, was the case. Since Sesshomaru and Kagome are angry with each other Kagome stopped playing with them because Sesshomaru told Rin that she couldn't play with Kagome and Kagome isn't one to stop children from playing.

For Sesshomaru it was more then one reason why the weeks seemed long one was because Kagome is ignoring him every chance she got and would glare at him whatever she wished. The other was he was incredibly sexually frustrated and with Kagome walking around in those short skirts showing her long legs and when ever she bent over he could see just the slightness part of her panties Sesshomaru would have to hold himself back from going over to her and pulling her nice small round ass to his ever growing member.

"Alright everyone we'll make camp here" Inuyasha yelled

Everyone set out making camp, Kagome sent Shippo with Rin and Jaken per Sesshomaru's order to get some water for dinner.

Miroku wanted to talk to Sango to tell her to lay down and rest but, did not think he would be welcome.

Sango walked over to Kagome who was making a fire and knelt down to talk with her.

"Kagome why don't we go take a bath after we have dinner?"

"Yeah alright"

After everyone was finished wit eating Kagome and Sango headed off to the hot springs. Sesshomaru wished that it was he and Kagome going to the hot springs to do more then bathe.

Walking in the hot spring Sango watched Kagome closely. Stopping at the edge of the spring they stripped of their clothes they slipped into the water.

"Kagome what is wrong?"

"Huh, what are you talking about?"

"I've watched you the pasted weeks and what I've seen doesn't look good and Kagome I'm worried about you"

"I'm alright really"

"Ok Kagome but, when ever your ready to talk I'll listen"

Kagome sighed as she finished her bath; Sango finished before Kagome and went back to camp.

"Kami-sama. why must you send me these dreams?"

Kagome had the dream about the two children again and again ever since she yelled at Sesshomaru the dreams cam and with the dreams came her tears of want.

"Shussou, Anei my children"

The tears kept falling down Kagome's checks and into the water around her, she wanted nothing more then to go home and never come back to this place of dreams that will never be.

Sesshomaru was getting a little worried about Kagome after the exterminator returned to camp Sesshomaru thought that Kagome would be not to far behind. Now everyone was getting into there resting areas and she wasn't back yet.

Rising from his place under a tree Sesshomaru walked down the path the girls took to the spring to only find Kagome still in the spring crying.

"Kagome...?"

"S-Sesshomaru…?"

"Are you alright?"

"Leave me alone haven't you done enough!"

"Kagome please…"

"Please what please shut up and not be a human so you can at least show me respect!"

"No Kagome I never want you to change"

"Then why, why can't you love me?"

"Before I answer why don't you get out of the spring I'll turn if you wish"

"Why it's not like you haven't seen me nude"

Kagome got out of the spring dried off and dressed that is when she saw that Sesshomaru had turned his back to her, smiling a small sad smile Kagome sat by the spring.

"You may turn around now"

Sesshomaru sat beside Kagome and took a deep breath before he spoke.

"You ask me why I can't love you yet you don't feel love for me, do you?"

"I don't know, I'm so confused"

"For that I am sorry my actions to you maybe t blame for you confusion"

"So I guess I should have known my feelings before asking you to give me your undying love"

"it would have been a smart thing, but given the state of our undress one would not be so smart"

"Now I feel real bad because I've been in a bad mood since then and everyone else picked up on it and went into their own, I was in a bad mood because I was angry with you, but it should have been my-self"

"But that wasn't the reason for crying earlier was it?"

"No I had the dreams again"

"I see"

"Sesshomaru are we friends again?"

"There was something I wanted to ask you before all this"

"What's that?"

"Kagome may I court you?"

"Court, like date?"

"A little but, with youkai it's different"

"What, how um oh crap"

"Kagome feel free to ask anything" Sesshomaru said with a chuckle

"Hey no laughing at me, what is involved in courting youkai wise?"

"well for one thing you'll bare my mark with that one your person other youkai will be able to smell my scent, for another thing there's no riding on the hanyou's back there are a few others but, because of when you are from I won't be insistent upon however; I would like it if you would let me rest by you at night for two reasons one because I miss having you close at night and two to protect you before even if it's from dreams of pups you want"

"What kind of mark?"

"normally the mark would be made by my claw but, given that we've gone past that part of the courting the mark well be made by my fangs, it would be on your neck on the left more towards the front if it was centered it would be a mating mark in the back a slave mark"

"So it's a bite?"

"Yes"

"Alright Sesshomaru I'll let you court me"

Sesshomaru smiled at Kagome then pulled her into his lap so she was straddling him he began to slowly kiss down her neck he wanted nothing more then to make love to her once more but, he knew that he was only to mark her. Sesshomaru soothed the area he was going to bite with gentle kisses and licks enticing moans from Kagome as the sent of Kagome arousal hit Sesshomaru he growled low and bit deep into Kagome flesh just upon her caller bone.

Kagome felt Sesshomaru pierce her skin but, she couldn't get her mind off of being with Sesshomaru.

After soothing the area he bit Sesshomaru started to kiss back up to Kagome's lips were he took them into a heated kiss, Kagome moaned into the kiss and grounded on Sesshomaru's growing erection making him groan in pleasure.

"Kagome we must stop unless you wish to rut right now" Sesshomaru whispered huskily

"Your right we must stop, but you didn't tell me that after you gave me the courting mark I'd want you have sex with you after"

"I am sorry many demons do not make courting marks normally they get mates when in heat no matter what"

"Thank you for giving my the choice"

"Come I think we should return to camp"

"Wait Sesshomaru my scent Inuyasha well pick up on my arousal"

"Don't worry you scent has calmed down"

"Thank you, come let's go"

Sesshomaru stood then reached a hand out to help Kagome stood taking her hand into his they walked back to camp to only meet an angry Inuyasha.

"What the fuck is going to between you two?"

"Sit boy! You have no right to ask something that has nothing to do with you!"
"Kagome please calm your-self"

"Sorry"

"Now Inuyasha if you must know then I will tell you, I am courting Kagome"

At this moment Sango and Miroku made themselves known with a gasp.

Lady Ky: please Nominate any one of my fictions on single spark

Kagome: why?

Sesshomaru: human's they don't make any sense

Lady Ky: I'm not human Sesshomaru, Kagome I think it would be cool

Kagome: oh right any way review
