A lone man stood on the roof of the shiro looking at the horizon. The moonlight illuminated his silvery hair making them stood out in the darkness as the wind played with them. Suddenly his eyes narrowed and he spoke, never turning his eyes from the sight.

"Miko, what are you doing here?"

Kagome who had just pushed herself on the roof took a deep breath before answering.

"I couldn't sleep because someone's youki is terribly unstable and it makes my reiki react in strange ways," she said sitting next to him. "You wouldn't know about who am I speaking Sesshoumaru-sama?"

"Hn."

"That's what I thought." They sat in silence for a while before the Lord spoke again.

"This Sesshouamru founds himself angered at the thought of being challenged by a man who hides himself in the shadows." The woman sighed softly.

"I know it means nothing, but I believe in you- it will take more than a coward to defeat you." She stood up turning to go back to her room, when a voice stopped her.

"Your opinion is.. appreciated, little miko." The woman smiled, shy blush rising on her cheeks.

Caught up in the moment, she gave a step forward, her foot slipping up as she began to glide down the roof. She was about to scream when something caught her waist and in the next moment she stood on the solid ground looking with wide eyes at the daiyoukai who just saved her life.

He leaned closer without releasing her from his hold.

"Next time be more careful, Kagome," he said quietly.

"S-sure," she whispered, before turning around and running inside the shiro. Once she was in her room, she leaned on the door, putting hand on her wildly beating heart.

'What have I gotten myself into?'

AN: A bit of romance for my personal enjoyment and hopefully yours as well :)
