Sesshomaru had eventually gotten Kagome to sleep by promising her he'd be right next to her until she fell asleep. And as soon as she did, he'd promptly resigned himself to the couch downstairs. Sighing, he settled in for a hopefully restful sleep.

A scream woke him up the next morning. Grunting he wondered where it came from and then promptly sighed before trying to go back to sleep. It seemed Rin had tried to wake him up like she usually did on weekends but found a rather surprised Kagome instead. He debated going upstairs to help Kagome out with Rin's awkward questions but then shook his head. After all the crap she put him through last night, she deserved to tackle this by herself. Eyes closing once again he let sleep claim him.
