Chapter 2 Jealousy
I awoke again a few hours later to the sounds of voices raised in argument, two guesses to the culprits, i groaned burrowing my self into the soft fluffy tail that was keeping me comfortable and warm. I decided to ignore the brothers and enjoy the fluffy tail that was still wrapped around me protectively keeping me safe, almost loving and tender like the young demon did last night as he carried me to bed. I smiled into the plush fluffy remembering how the ice cold killing perfection acted playing like a little boy testing his new arm with wonder and amazement. The yelling got louder as my best friend yell at his brother i couldn't take it any i sat up still wrapped up in Seshoumaru's tail I shot a warning glance at the now back to his normal self hanyou, seeing my expression knowing that if he didn't stop I would make him kiss the ground. He held my eyes for a few moments before looking away in defeat.
"Feh you have no humor Kagome me and Sesshoumaru were just messing around, it wasn't gonna come to blows just friendly brotherly argument" he said disappointment clear as a bell.
"I do not care Inuyasha you woke me up, and I'm not in the best mood when my sleep is disturbed, I was having the best dream!" i yelled irritated at him i stood up in a huff not thinking about the fact that I still had Sesshoumaru's tail wrapped around me clinging like a leach. Everyone stared at me then at the demon lord who was still leaning into his tree ice mask not showing anything on his face other then his indifference to the situation. Inuyasha growled angery seeing the fluff wrapped around my body rubbing itself on my cheek reassuringly making me giggle and run my hand over the silky fur. " Oh hush you! Your just jealous Inu quit being such a baby need i remind you of a few things" I said threatening him, he hated that Sesshomaru and me had a good friendship which became a lot stronger over last nights events. I did kinda enjoy tormenting Inuyasha with mine and Sessohomaru's strange friendship he diserved it after dealing with him rubbing kikyo in my face i found it well within my rites to do it. Ignoring him I turned around to my best girl-friend detaching the fluffy appendage from my body knowing that if i didn't remove it now it cling to me the rest of the day.
"Hey Sango-Chan you want to go take a bath with me?"I asked her beaming "Sure Kagome-chan lets go weve been traveling for so long I'm in need of a bath."She giggled and stood up gathering her things i nodded turning to do the same when two voices asked.
"Can we come to?" Rin and Shippou said harmoniously i laughed and nodded they cheered excitedly I got a change of clothes my towels, shampoo, conditioner and soap, Rin danced excitedly to Jaken who held out her clean clothes grabbing them from the kappa demon, she rushed back to me grabbed my hand laughing as she did.
"Kagome-sama would you wash my hair for me i love when you do it?" The girl asked "Of course I will Rin I'll tell you what when were done I'll brush and put your hair up as well I know how much you like that to." I smiled at the small girl squeezing her hand lightly falling in step with Sango, Shippou following behind us as eager to wash as we were. We got to the river laid our clothes and towels on the rock i sat on the previous night and sat my bathing supplies on the bank of the river stepped out of my clothes and joined the others already in the river sighing and relaxing in the cool water.
"So you did it didn't you Kagome?" Sango asked knowingly small smile on her face.
"Did what Sango?"i asked innocently "Don't play you know very well what I'm talking about Kagome. Sesshomaru's arm you healed it didn't you i saw it, Miroku saw it Inuyasha saw it, everyone did for god sake, That's what pissed Inuyasha off so early he noticed it and demanded Shessomaru tell him how he got it back and you know Sesshomaru he sat there with his shut the idiot half-demon glare on and ignored him."Sango chuckled.
"Hahaha I can imagine. Yes i healed his arm, you should have seen his face Sango god he looked so gorgeous even more so then normal he looked so much younger testing his arm laughing like a little boy. I know its hard to believe but hes not evil quite the opposite in fact. Shessomaru has honor hes kind and trustworthy and takes care of what he deems important. He even bowed to me and offerd me his protection whenever were ever i need as well as the hospitality of his home!" I replyed to my friend and watched her face take on a thoughtful expression on her face. I was rubbing shampoo into Rin's hair when she spoke.
"Do you love him?" i looked at her confused thought for a moment.
" I don't know he's a friend thou what i feel for him greatly differs from what i feel for the rest of you including Inu, its a lot stronger i think, I've never thought i could feel this strongly about someone i think it has to do with the fact we have great chemistry. It's the thing you and Miroku have you cant help but be attracted to one i trust him he will do everything in his power to keep his word that is who he is. Trust my judgment Sango he'd never hurt anyone of us he'd risk himself for anyone of us. Especially Inuyasha a but that is between us, he loves him just has a hard time showing it he never had it shown to him so he teases him in his own way give him time you'll see." I vowed rinsing Rin's hair helping her out of the water to sit on the rock wraped up in a towel to warm up from the cool water, doing the same to Shippou then sat next to my best friend for a moment.
"I love you Sango you are a sister to me and nothing will change that, nothing will change the fact that you, Miroku, Inu, Shippou, Kirara, Rin, Ah-un, and Sesshomaru are my family and even Jaken on occasion you all are home now. I've made up my mind im going to live my life here with you all. But lets get back to camp so we can leve we have jewel shards to collect and a evil ass hole to beat the crap out of." I said walking out of the water and wrapping the towel Rin handed me around my body.
Drying Rin off with the towel and helping her into her kimono and sent her back to camp with Shippou and Sango who had fenished dressing already she took Rin by the hand with a look to me smiled and walked back with the kids leaveing me to dress. I dressed quickly knowing if i didn't follow Sango soon the brothers mite come get me and i didn't want to get caught without clothes on. I gatherd my things after changeing and walked back to camp. It was quiet when i returned i ignored it and started to pack up pausing only to brush and style Rins hair like I promised. The others fenished packing up camp while i brushed Rin's hair so that all i had to do was pack my brush and sleeping bag. I started rolling it up when the bag moved i jumped back with a startled "eep" . A burst of laughter from my friends made me look at them. A rustleing from my bag made turn back toward my things and a streak of white came at me losseing my balance I fell back on my butt only to find a fluffy leach stuck to me once more. My friends burst out laughing entertaind with the fact that the most fearsome youkais tail was teasing me. "Some friends you guys are i was scared there was a bug in my sleeping bag!" I yelled in mock out rage petting the silky fur it fell a way from me and streaked towards its master who looked innocent for a demon had not moved at all. I mutterd about bad friends and un funny jokes packed my sleeping bag up and hoisting my bag with that we walked away from camp. Surounded by love and laughter we set off once more to find the rest of the jewel shards...
