"SESSHOMARU-SAMA! Your back" Rin yelled from steam

"Rin, Were you good?" Sesshomaru asked walking towards his adopted pup

"Yes, this Rin was very good!" She smiled "Where did you go?"

RIN, that is no concern of yours" Jaken yelled

After Sesshomaru sent Jaken the death stare for yelling at Rin he ordered "Taken Rin back to the Castle and wait for me there" With that he turned and walked away back into the wood, he could hear Jaken protesting but Sesshomaru was not in the mood to fool with the toad today, he had bigger problems on his hand.

~~~0~~~~0~~~~~~0~~~~~~~~0~~~~~~~~~0~~~~~~~~~~0~~~~~~~0~~~~~~~0~~~~0~~~~~~~~~0~~~~~~~~*

The sun was setting behind the mountain; Shippo had woken up just enough to eat some herb soup Jinenji taught Kagome how to make. but fell right back to sleep once he was done, in relief to Kagomes very tired arms, he now had his legs wrapped around her waist and arms around her neck, with his head laying on her shoulder Kagome could feel him drooling on her Kimono but she was past the point of caring, she just wanted to find a spring to take a shower and fall into a deep sleep.

"I think we should set up camp now" Miroku said looking at the tired Kagome, taking pity on her

"Why?" Inuyasha spat

"Because I'm tired and if I'm tired I know the girls are dead on their feet."

"I bet Kagome asked you to say that" Inuyasha stuck his nose in the air

"Actually Inuyasha I'm fine, we don't have to stop if you dont want to" Kagome didn't sound tired and even smiled at him

"Uh okay" Inuyahsa stopped at turned to the group "Sango you take Kirara and scout the East, I'll scout the West for a camping spot"

"Okay, Kirara!" The FireCat changed and she jumped on its back to take to the sky.

"Stay here don't move" Inuyasha ordered before he ran to the east, once Kagome was sure he was out of ear shot she turned to Miroku

"Thank you sooooo much Miroku, I owe you" Kagome closed her eyes and took a deep breath

"No problem" Miroku smiled "Would you like me to take Shippo while Inuyasha is a gone?"

"Thank you Miroku but it s only a little while longer, But could you watch him while I get a bath?"

"Of course"

Inuyasha came back in no time saying he found a camp site not too far from here with a hot spring nearby, Kagome jumped for joy

"Lets go!" Kagome cheered forgetting how tired she was

"Hey wait for me!" Sango laughed Want a ride Kagome?"

Inuyasha shot a death look at Kagome but she didn't see it "No thanks, Inuyasha said it wasn't far, and I'm not tired anymore" Kagome smiled, confusing the hell out of Inuyasha.

"Shall we then?" Miroku asked

The small group walked a short distance to the camp site; Kagome was half expecting for it to be a few miles away just to piss off Kagome and to admit she was dead on her feet. But thankfully he was telling them the truth and they arrived in no time. Miroku held his hands out for Shippo, but before Inuyahsa could protest Kagome sat him saying Shippo could breathe fine and didn't need the steam tonight. Kagome stomped off with her bag, felling like it weighted a ton, she made it to the hot spring and without missing a beat striped and jumped in, and she wasted no time washing her body and hair. She leaned against the shallow rock to help relax her body from the long day.

Sesshomaru followed the scent of the sick demon, the closer he got the more the scent disappeared 'He must be getting over his sickness' he thought as he walked, he could tell he was getting closer because Kagomes Packs scent was getting stronger, he already had his Aura covered so he was able to walk right into the groups camp.

"I'm proud of kagome-sama, she not only took care of Shippo she stayed awake all day" The Monk explained, Sesshomaru noticed the kit was now in his arms

"She could have done more with the demons we faced"

"I think she did a good job, granted she didn't help with the fight but she held back protecting Shippo" the slayer added

"She couldn't fight too much with Shippo asleep in her arms Inuyasha" the monk said again

"Keh" Inuyasha jumped into the trees "She is tired as hell, she is just keeping on a brave face"

'This Sesshomaru has had enough of this conversation' He thought to himself leaving the pitiful group to bitch at each other. He walked the short distance to the hot spring he could see through the thick fog around the steam her Raven hair sticking out behind a rock, oh how he wanted to take her right there, no one was around he could have his way, he walked around to see her face, as she sat unmoving, he could smell she already washed her body and hair, now was relaxing in the water. When he walked around her front, he raised a brow seeing her snoring softly, he couldn't stop the slight smile pulling at his lips, see his dark haired beauty fast asleep from a long hard day. He sat across from her watching her sleep softly he would wait until she was wake and ready before he took her, his heart jumped as she slid into the water.

Without thinking he jumped in and grabbed her before she could drown, he looked down to see her soft body in the shallow water, her perky breast, her soft but toned stomach, her long smooth legs. He growled at himself for having such thoughts about the human Miko, Yes she was beautiful but she was human. He pulled her out of the water, wrapping her in his arms, he bent down to her bag and pulled out a yellow Kimono, and quickly put it on her without so much as stirring her, but before he could tire her sash he could hear the hanyou walking this way. He laid her on the ground, and jumped into the trees. Just as Inuyasha was walking up

"Hey Kagome?" The hanyou stopped to see Kagome laying on the ground "You awake?" He pushed her arm with his foot but she was so deep in sleep she didn't feel it "I see" Inuyasha bent down next to her left shoulder and sniffed her neck, Sesshomaru watched as he shuddered at her scent, apparently it was just as appealing to the hanyou as it was to him. Inuyasha looked from left to right before leaning down and licking Kagome collar bone up to her jaw line. Sesshomaru bit his lip to stop from growling.

Inuyasha didn't stop there, he didn't fail to notice her Kimono was left untied, so he looked around again before pulling her Kimono open reveling her bare body, Sesshomaru noticed the Miko barley had hair around her woman hood, he felt his cock twitch for an odd reason he liked the look, most women including Female demons had a lot of hair around that area. But he was torn away from his thoughts at the sight of Inuyasha now licking up Kagomes breast, with his hand reaching down her stomach... That s when Sesshomaru snapped, he took down his barrier, causing Inuyasha to jump back.

"I do not think the Miko has consented to this" Sesshomaru said in a calm tone jumping down from the tree

"What the fuck do you want" Inuyasha snapped

"Just passing through" Sesshomaru lied

"Then keep it moving" Inuyasha snapped crawling back over to the sleeping Kagome

"Don't you think she should be back at your camp?"

"Don't you think your being nosy?"

"This Sesshomaru just points out the obvious"

"Whatever" Inuyasha bent back down to Kagome and picked her up bridle style closing her Kimono, then he leaned down and picked up her backpack Happy now?" Inuyasha spat walking back to the camp

Sesshomaru turned before Inuyasha could see the red bleeding into his eyes from the pure anger rising. He hid is Aura again so he could follow Inuyasha to make sure he took Kagome back without fail. Thanks to the camp begin so close to the hot spring, he had no choice but to take her back, once Inuyasha reached the camp, Sango pulled out her odd Sleeping Sack so Inuyasha could put her inside. Once Kagome was in Miroku put Shippo inside next to her, but not without a beautiful shot of Kagome's Brest hanging out of her open Kimono, He blushed beet red. But thankfully for him Sango didn't see him, she was already falling asleep with Kirara and Inyasha jumped into the trees, with a smile on his face Miroku went to sleep... but unknown to him Sesshomaru caught him looking at Kagome, Sesshomaru wanted to rip the monks eyes out but held back to watch Kagome wrap her left arm around the Kit and snuggle up to him.

~That could be out pup she snuggled up to, or even you~ His beast had to put his two cents in

'Do you ever shut up?' Seshsomaru spat 'You used to be so quiet and now I can't get you to shut the hell up'

~I'm trying to make us both happy here, since you re so dead set on begin alone~ His beast growled

Sesshomaru ignored him and watched over Kagome the rest of the night. When she started to stir in the morning, he retreated to the trees. Kagome awoke sitting up stretching her arms into the air, only to blush when she noticed her Kimono was wide open, she took a deep breath noticing no one saw her. Since it was still early she couldn't remember if she took a full bath or not, so she put up a barrier up and walked back to the hot spring for a quick bath, Sesshomaru followed to make sure she made it safely among other reasons... Once she was done she put the yellow Kimono back on and walked back to the group who was still asleep. She laid back down with Shippo who no long smelled of sickness, as she drifted back to sleep.

~MORNING~

"Oi Kagome, Shippo Wake up!" Inuyasha yelled

"Okay okay, we re up" Kagome yawned as she rubbed her eyes.

"Good morning Kagome-sama" Miroku greeted

"Good morning everyone" Kagome smiled, then reached down to pick up shippo "Hey sleepy head, feel better?" Kagome touched her nose to his

"Yes, Thank you" Shippo hugged Kagome his tiny arms wrapping around her neck

"Okay enough of this love crap" Inuyahsa spat

"Inuyasha" Miroku and sango sighed

"It s okay we need to get going anyway" Kagome stood letting go of the Kit, to begin picking put her things and putting them in her backpack. "Ready" Kagome called to her Pack once everything was clean

"Took you long enough" Inuyasha spat "Come on we need to make up for lost time" he knelt allowing Kagome to ride on his back, but after a seconded he looked back to see Miroku helping Kagome on to Kiara "What the hell Kagome?"

"Oh I didn't want to trouble you" Kagome sent him the death stare

"It s no trouble" Inuyasha whispered, to be honest he liked the feeling of Kagomes legs wrapped around him, he like the feeling of her hot core rubbing against his back. "So come on"

"It s okay Inuyasha" Kagome smiled but her eyes said drop dead

"Fine, I don t need your fat ass slowing me down anyway"

"SIT" and with that Kirara lifted into the air, leaving the Hanyou to eat dirt

"Are you okay Kagome?" Sango asked

"Yup just peachy" Kagome smiled

"Something about Kagome-sama smile is scary" Miroku whispered to Sango

"Well you'd be pissed to if Inuyasha was mean to you like he is to her"

"Why is that?"

"You got me" Sango shrugged, kagome could hear them but ignored them... To be honest she wanted nothing more than to leave inuyasha but she promised him that she would stay by his side until the jewel was restored. So even though Naraku destroyed it, the promise still holds.

"INUYASHA! Shard to the east" Kagome pointed in the direction they needed to go, they soon came upon a rat demon chewing on bones of his recent kill. Inuyasha charged in head first causing the rat demon to be thrown back against the base of a tree but thanks to the jewel shard he was able to jump right back up and claw down the hanyou's back, Kagome readied her bow and managed to shoot his left arm off.

"Curse you wench!" The rat demon cried as he tossed a sutra at Kagme causing hundreds of demons to appear at attack her, Sango jumped on Kirara to try to save Kagome, luckily Kagome had her right hand extended so Sango was able to grab it and pull Kagome out of the pile of rats "You think that will stop them! GET HER"

The rats disappeared from the ground and reappeared on Kagome and Kirara, Kagome tired to push them away but fell off the firecat the rats followed, Kagome screamed a high pitch scream as she fell to the earth with the rats biting her

"KAGOME!" Inuyasha yelled racing to her, but the Rat demon caught him off guard and threw inuyasha back against a tree.

"KAGOME-SAMA" Miroku yelled while fighting some of the rats, but there was a pile over top of her. Shippo Ran over trying to use his Fox fire but barely doing much

"You Bastard" Inuyasha yelled when he got off the ground

"HAHAHA you are just a week hanyou!" The rat demon laughed "Your poor little bitch is dead by now"

"SHUT UP" Inuyasha pulled out his sword "WIND SCAR" And whipped the Rat from the earth, Once the demons screams faded, they turned to were Kagome laid but they didn't see Kagome.

"SESSHOMARU!" The four gasped seeing Sesshomaru folded over top of Kagome, his Kimono ripped in places the rats were able to get through. Sesshomaru stood up his back to the group with Kagome locked in his arms looking up at him.

"What the hell Sesshomaru?"Inuyasha spat

"Are you okay Miko?" He asked ignoring the barking Hanyou.

"Y-Yes" Kagome whispered

"Good" He sat her down "Go back to your group" He turned to leave. Kagome watched after him but was soon snapped out of it when Inuyasha grabbed her arm pulling here away to pick up the shard.

"Let's go Kagome" Inuyasha forced her to get on his back as he jumped in to the air running far away from this baka half-brother.

It was nearly night fall when Inuyasha stopped, everyone was surprised because Inuyasha never stopped this early unless they were staying in a village. Kagome had not said a word since Sesshomaru saved her. Sango and Miroku exchanged whispers so low even Inuyasha couldn't catch it even if he was paying attention; Kagome ignored his constant growling and muttering under his breath. Kagome just sighed and thought about what happened between the Taiyoukai and herself

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*`~Lets back up a little bit~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~

She could feel rats piling on not only her but Kirara as well, the only thing she could do since they were so high in the air was for Inuyasha or Shippo to catch her, so she dove off the back, Kagome could feel the wind rush past her, and he name being called by her friends, she prayed that someone would catch her or at least have a soft landing, as she was nearing the ground she closed her eyes and excepted death... She knew she hit something hard, with her eyes still closed she drew in a hard breath to see what was about to hurt, but she opened her eyes in surprise when nothing hurt, well nothing that would cause a problem in hunting for the shards, she looked down first thinking her would see dirt/grass/a person but what she saw surprised her a white Kimono, she snapped her head up to see Sesshomaru wrapped around her body, his face cold and eyes shut.

"Sesshomaru?" she whimpered

"Are you okay?" He asked not opening his eyes

"I-I think so" Kagome didn't feel any pain

"Good" Kagome could feel him take a deep breath, she probably wouldn't have noticed if she wasn't pressed to his chest so tight

"Um- thank you for saving me" Kagome blushed

"hn" Was all he said but he opened his eyes to met her gaze, and what she see took her breath away, lust. At first she thought she was imagining it but the more she looked at him the more it was the truth. Kagome blushed a deep red. "What is it Miko?" he didn't sound aggravated but curious

"Nothing" Kagome looked away. she didn't know how he did it but one moment his right arm was under her legs but in the blink of an eye and not moving her an inch, his hand was pulling her face back towards his, Kagome could feel his breath on her cheek. As he spoke in to her ear

"Wait for me" and then he pulled away slightly but only to bush his lips against her's, Kagome breathing became ragged, she blushed again and Sesshomaru didn't need to ask what she was blushing smelling the spike in her arousal, a smirk pulled up at his lips. But before he could do anything else he heard the final blow to the rat demon, as the rats disappeared around them, he stood his face returned to its usual cold hard look and set the Miko down and left.

~*~*~*~*~*~~*~*~ Back to the group~*~*~*~~*~*~*~

"Hmmmm" Kagome leaned in to Inuyasha back, thinking of the soft bush of his lips, her panties became moist from the thought. Inuyasha tighten his grip on her legs thinking he was the one to make get wet.

'Damn right' He thought to himself. 'Wonder if she will be as good kikyo? Maybe she is better' A smirked pulled at his lips. Tonight he would find out.

Everyone was surprised when Inuyasha decided to make camp earlier than usual, he managed to find another hot spring nearby, which was perfect in his mind.

"Wow thee in one week" Kagome jumped for joy with Shippo bouncing into her arms

"That s really good luck" Miroku looked confused but didn't care they all needed a shower

"We will go first" Kagome and Sango ran off towards the spring with Shippo following behind, Inuyasha sat in the trees plotting his move. He knew that Sango would return first, the slayer never like to 'soak' like Kagome did. So that was one person out of the way, now the problem was Shippo, now that he considered Kagome to be his new mother, he never left her side. But he knew he could scare him away from Kagome. And boom they would be alone, he chuckled to himself 'No way she would defy me'

Just as Inuyasha thought Sango came back first but to his surprise Shippo was with her so that was one less thing he had to do. "Hey, guys stay here don t move, I smell a demon" Inuyasha lied to the group

"What about Kagome?" Sango asked

"I'll go warn her" Shippo started to run, but Inuyasha grabbed his tail

"Stay here! I've got this" Inuyasha ran towards the hot spring like her would if there was really a demon. He slid to a stop behind Kagome who was humming to herself completely unaware of the Hanyou

"Kagome?" He asked

"AHHHH SIT! Inuyasha I'm naked!" she yelled covering herself as best she could in the shallow water, and he expected to be sat nothing new to him.

"I know calm down, I'm not looking" He said in a sweet voice

Kagome didn't uncover herself but she decided to see that he had to say "Okay" she whispered back

"I was thinking, you know about today, I thought I lost you, I saw you falling and I couldn't get to you, then because of the rats I couldn't see if you were okay or not" He said in a low voice

"Well Then thank your brother, if not for him I would have been hurt" Kagome could hear the low growl coming from Inuyasha

"That was not the point I was making" inuyasha got right behind her and brought his mouth close to her ear "The point was I don't ever want to lose you"

"Inuyasha, what are you saying?" Kagome pulled away from him

"I don't want to lose you Kagome to anything or anyone." Inuyasha pulled her face to his and smashed his lips on to her. It wasn't even genital or sweet, it was dry and harsh.

"In.. Inuyasha" Kagome pushed the hanyou off "What are you doing?"

"Kissing you, isn't this what you wanted for years"

"Umm three years ago yes, but not anymore" Kagome moved away "I don't see you like that anymore"

"What you don t love me?" He closed his eyes

"Well yes I love you, but not in the way you want me to, I-I love you like a brother now" Kagome explained still backing away

"You are reject me" Inuyasha eyes snapped open "After all I have done for you" His eyes bleeding red as he stepped into the water

"Inuyasha please"

"Please what. You fucking tease" Inuyasha sloshed in the water towards her

"I never teased you" Kagome spat

"Do Not back talk me" He back handed Kagome "How dare you deny me!"

~o~o~o~o~o~~O~O~O~O~O~OO~ Backing it up :P~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~O~~~~

Sesshomaru followed the pack after their battle with the Rat demon, He could still smell Kagome's arousal on him, as he followed the group he could see Inuyasha mad expression which please the taiyoukai, he also could see Kagome, he watched as a smile pulled at her lips... His heart sank in confusion why was she smiling while on the half-breeds back? Could it be she was thinking of him or Inuyasha? His angry rose he needed to find out. He followed the group to the camp site, he watched as the two women and the child bathed, he had no interest in the slayer at all, his eyes stayed on Kagome, he felt his member twitch as she rubbed her breast, as she washed her long hair, she was so sexy as she rose from under the water, whether she meant to or not it was the single most sexiest thing he has seen.

He looked away as the slayer got out of the water along with the kit, finally he could make his move on her, she was humming to herself, he was about to step out of the tree ling when he heard his half-breed brother heading her way, he slipped behind a large tree to watch.

~So we went from lord of the west to a peeping tom?~ his beast laughed

'Not now, I'm trying to watch'

~She does not love the Hanyou, even you know this~ Sesshomaru watched as Kagome freaked and sat Inuyasha, felling a small smile pull at his lips.. He listed in to their whispers

"I was thinking about you today" yeah sure, he was thinking about losing his shard dector "Thank your brother for saving me" Ha that made him laugh as he hear the growl from Inuyasha " I don't ever want to lose you" Again don t want to lose the shard dector, that all she was to him.

Sesshomaru heart sank, he felt sick to his stomach as he watched Inuyasha kiss Kagome... Was he wrong about her, was she still the little girl in love with the Half-breed. He was about to turn and walk away forever until he heard Kagome protest the kiss and explains she didn't love him. Sesshomaru felt as well as watched Inuyasha anger rise, from her denial... He fought the urge to growl as Inuyasha entered the water... But he lost all self control when he slapped Kagome.

~HOW DARE HIM! SLAP OUR WOMAN, YOU BETTER DO SOMETHING OR I WILL~ Sesshomaru fought as he beast tired to take control

'This sesshomaru will handle the Hanyou'

"Inuyasha what's wrong with you" Kagome spat tear forming in her eyes

"There would be nothing wrong if you would just-" Kagome watched as Inuyasha gaze moved to the tree line "The fuck you want?" Sesshomaru said nothing as he walked towards the hot spring Earth to ice prick, the fuck you want?" Kagome blushed a deep red, knowing Sesshomaru could see her plain as day naked in the water.

"It is improper for the opposite sex to bath together unless they are mated or Intended to be mated"

"And why do you care? What I do with her is none of your business" Inuyasha spat

"It seems the Miko does not wish to be with you" Sesshomaru shot a quick glance at the Miko noticing the large red hand print on her face "Can you answer me why you decided to lay a hand on her"

"Can you answer me why you have been around us so much lately?"

"You have been on my land, just keeping the peace"

"She is my bitch and I will do whatever I want to her" Inuyasha grabbed Kagomes arm and pulled her up and out of the water "Leave"

"INUYASHA!" Kagome cried tiring to cover her breast and women hood with open arm but failing "STOP IT. SIT" Inuyasha didn't let go taking both him and Kagome into the water

~Well that was kind of dumb~ Sesshomaru's beast laughed

Kagome came up first, "SIT" she jumped up and out of the water not caring if Sesshomaru saw her in her birthday suit, she ran over and picked up her bags, then dashed over to where Sesshomaru was standing, she stood behind him.

"KAGOME you bitch I could have drowned" Inuyasha looked to where she should have been standing, as his eyes scanned the area he saw her bare feet standing behind Sesshomaru "Running to him for protection?" Inuyasha stood out of the water dripping wet, Kagome pulled the dirty yellow kimono out of her bag, and she just needed something to cover her naked body. "I am talking to you wench"

"Inuyasha leave me be, go to Kikyo if you want something" Kagome leaned out from behind Sesshomaru "You will not get anything from me. EVER."

"Keh no skin of my back, she does everything I ask her to do, without a complaint. Unlike you who has to bitch constantly" Inuyasha spat on the ground before turning to leave, but not towards the campsite.

"Thank you Sesshomaru-sama" Kagome felt she needed to be formal with him this time

"Are you hurt?"

Kagome touched her face "No I'm fine" truth be told it stung like a mother fucker but she put on a brave face

"Why must you lie?" Sesshomaru closed his eyes

"W-What" Kagome breathed

"You face is swollen, and you say it doesn't hurt."

"Fine it stings a little but no more than a bee sting" Kagome touched her face again 'LIRE it hurts so much'

Sesshomaru turned and moved Kagome's hand but replaced his own "Here"

Kagome couldn't help it, his cool hand felt amazing on her burning cheek 'feels like a cold compress, guess he really does have a cold heart' Kagome sighed

"Whats wrong Miko" Sesshomaru could sensed her sadness

"Hmm Nothing" Kagome reached her hand up and placed it over Sesshomarus leaning in closer, noticing his hand wasn't getting warmer like normal peoples should. "How are you keeping your hand so cold?" Kagome blurted out not thinking

"I am keeping it cold for your cheek" a smirk pulled up at his lips, but faded when she pulled his hand away

"Thank you so much" Kagome looked under her think lashes at him 'TAKE THE HINT' Kagome thought to her self

"It was nothing Miko" His tone was cold but thank Kami his pants were loss otherwise she might notice the slight hard on he was having

~Come on, on one is around... Tell he how you feel~ His beast nudged

"Oh... Umm... Is there any way I can repay you" Kagome winked at him 'HELLO, Practically throwing myself at you here' Kagome smiled

"Is something wrong with your eye?" Sesshomaru asked

'Really? Even Miroku knows what a wink means WHY DON'T YOU!' Kagome screamed in her head but said "Oh... No" Kagome sighed and walked away

~Kami you dumb, she was winking at you as in 'Take me now you stud' Now she thinks your an idiot!~ his beast slamed his head againt the wall of his cage, sesshomaru mentally slapped himself

"Would you like me to walk you back to your camp?"

"No" Kagome felt stupid "Its not far, thank you" Kagome walk under the tree branch

~ANNNNNDDD you blew it!~ his beast growled

'This Sesshomaru has plenty of other chances'

~I think I'm going to chop your balls off OH WAIT! You don't have any because if you did she be in your arms as we speak~

'Away with you, this Sesshomaru has a plan' he smiled to himself and walked back under the trees hiding his aura.
