Blessings

"My little Souta is all grown up and fallen in love." Kagome giggled.

"Yes," Sesshoumaru all but growled, "but why did it have to be with my Hitomi."

"She is a teenager now dear," Rin spoke up in her soft voice radiating kindness, "you got to allow her to act like one."

He growled lowly again in acquiescence. "I just don't like how serious they seem."

"This is a good thing," Kagome urged, "this way she won't get her heart broken."

"It seems you shall get you wish," Rin smiled, "you won't have to leave your family behind."

Kagome froze, this was a thought, well a hope really, she'd been pushing away.

"Your brother is not the only member of your family in love. Touga has found himself a girl who loves him as deeply as he adores her, someone who does not seem to care about his strength or profession, they also met at your party, and her name is Aya Higurashi."

Kagome froze; the smile this time was forced. It was not that Touga looked too young, for her mother was actually only thirty two, she had had her very young so she actually only looked to be about four years older than the dog himself. That was really not the problem, the problem was that it was Touga, she would rather he continue to bother her than fall for her mother, even if they loved each other... that was a blessing she was unwilling to give.
