Heart of Tensaiga

Giving a Lift


Sesshomaru secretly sniffed the air around her the second she walked through the door. Her scent was normal but a horrible stench almost drowned it out completely. Whatever this hospital place was must smell terrible if it left such a strong stench clinging to the girl.

Almost as if reading his mind, he heard Kagome announce, "I'm going to take a shower. I'll be down shortly." With that, she had bolted up the stairs still a little unsteady from her illness. Hn, she is still weak. She made it about halfway up when she started to pant for breath and so he did the only thing a good alpha to his pack could do.

"Eep!" was all she managed to get out when a strong arm lifted her and started taking her up the stairs. Once at the top she looked at him and smiled nervously, "Really, there was no need to carry me."

He took in the air around him and walked to the room that carried her scent stronger than any other. Sesshomaru walked over to the bed and gently placed her down upon the higher than average contraption. He noticed many objects within the room and noticed that she had stood up and opened a side door within the room.

"Thank you Sesshomaru, for bringing me home," she smiled at him while picking up clothes. "I'm also sorry for being a nuisance and getting sick like that."

Before walking out, he stated, "You were not a nuisance."
