Chapter 50: Cool
Kagome paid little attention to the car ride home. Lili had hopped into the backseat so she could sit next to Sesshoumaru before Kagome had even reached the car, so Kagome sat up front with Kati.
"Are you okay Kagome?" Kati asked quietly while Lili was in the back chatting away to Sesshoumaru who wasn't answering her.
"Yup, I'm cool. " Kagome faked a smile. Truth be told, she was still in a foul mood, she just wasn't sure why. She chalked it up to being called a criminal, though she wasn't sure that was it.
In the backseat, Lili wasn't deterred at all by Sesshoumaru's lack of communication. She kept talking and asking questions that remained unanswered. Kagome could feel Sesshoumaru's aura, tinged with annoyance, prickling against her skin, but she refused to turn around. It was something he would have to learn to deal with. If he wanted to be a part of this world he needed to know how to interact with humans. Decapitation was no longer an option.
Kagome was thankful when she was finally indside her apartment, unfortunately there was Sesshoumaru, who was anything but cool.
