Bound Endlessly

by FrenchFlutter

What do you do when you receive a birthday present you never thought in a million years would be possible? What if everything you fought so hard for, was all for nothing? What if you never really made a difference at all? Maybe, just maybe, it's all in how you look at it. Maybe, we are all just bound... bound endlessly to a thing called fate!

Chapter 44: In the end

---

Kagome was sitting at the table, waiting patiently, when Sesshoumaru entered dressed in jeans and a graphics t-shirt of Sota's. Kagome didn't like it. It was all wrong. This wasn't how Sesshoumaru was supposed to look. She would try to find clothes more suitable to how he was likely accustomed to dressing.

"I made breakfast. What would you like to drink?" she asked.

"I do not eat human food." he said, looking over the table.

"Oh." she frowned, feeling a little dejected. "Do you eat at all?"

"Yes. Lesser youkai, mainly boar and cow."

Kagome's eyebrows knitted together, "Sorry, fresh out of lesser youkai. Would you consider chicken or steak?"

"I do not require food right now."

"Okay." Kagome set about eating her breakfast, alone.

Whatever Sesshoumaru did or didn't do was his business, she didn't want to control him. All that mattered was she had gotten him out of Rolf's prison. Kagome was more than a little shocked when Sesshoumaru took the seat across from her. Even if he was silent and didn't touch the food, in the end, just the simple gesture was enough.
