Once she had finished filling up the bottles, she turned to see if Sesshomaru was still there. And, for whatever reason, he was. Leaning against one of the nearby trees, he seemed to be sleeping. But even Kagome knew better, he had simply decided to close his eyes for a moment. It was still raining and she wondered why he hadn't gone to where he had come from... wherever that was. So being curious, she asked.
"This Sesshomaru is simply making sure that the shards aren't stolen" was his ever so calm reply. He looked bored out of his mind.
"So you're sitting out in the cold, wet rain to... protect the shards?" she looked at him dubiously, not quite believing him.
"Hn"
"Whatever helps you sleep at night."
And, smirking, she grabbed her things. Since he was here she might as well make use of him, right?
"Sesshomaru-sama?" she said, ever so hesitant. Looking at him as she passed by, she stopped in front of him. He simply looked at her, waiting. And she took that as a go-ahead.
