Kagome was pulling up well water when he came back. She didn't both to look at him.
"Miko,"
She untied the bucket, still not looking at him.
"You are not pleased to see me?"
She finally looked up at him. "You left,"
He came closer, "Did you miss my person that much, Miko?"
Her face grew angry. "You can't just say the things you said to me and, and-
He put his arm around her and pulled her in, and cut her jumbled words short with his hot mouth. At first, she melted, but then she remembered she was upset and pushed away. "Sesshomaru!" She blushed nonetheless. She had all the time in the month he had been gone to think about the last time they were together, and it still made her blush. She spent many nights in one-person arguments with herself about, them, this.
"I will not be leaving you again,"
She picked up the bucket of water, stuck her nose in the air, and walked past him.
He reached for the bucket,
"I've got it,"
"So you no longer need me?"
His tone was different, his calmness was gone, and it made her pause, he almost sounded, dejected. She sat it down and he picked it up and they began to walk.
"Where did you go?"
"Now you wish to know,"
"Im not sure, Do I want to know?"
He smirked, not looking at her. "Worried I left for you for another?"
"Im not yours to leave," She said matter of factly with her nose up and face turned away.
"Jealousy is beneath you and unneeded, but I quite enjoy it,"
She glared at him. "This is just a big joke to you, isn't it," She stopped, he stopped.
"You were teasing Kouga and now me, you left just to get under my skin just to come back and make it worse, what have I done to you,"
He was confused by her shift, but was it really surprising?
"Just give-" She went to grab the water, but he dropped it and grabbed her wrist, and then the other has she reached up to hit him "Miko,"
"Let me go,"
He yanks her closer to him, wrapping another arm around her, still holding one wrist, he looks down at her "It is ok to admit you missed my person Miko."
She turned her face away from him, angry "Who says I missed you,"
He pulled her wrist close, resting her hand on his chest, she could burn him if she wanted.
"I came right back to you,"
"You still left," Her voice became calm again,
"Forgive me, woman, I am used to roaming freely,"
"Then go roam freely, dont let me stop you," And right back to a snap.
"I am not my brother miko,"
She looked at him,
"I did not leave to seek another,"
"I didn't think you did, I just-
"Just what,"
"I just thought you were done with me, I thought the teasing was over, your fun at my expense,"
Of course, picking flowers saying he loves me, he loves me not didn't help.
"While I am cruel Miko, what benefit would I gain by hurting the woman I wish to mate, there was deceit in my words woman,"
She blushed and could not hold his gaze, in her terms, he basically was saying he wanted to marry her.
"Then, why did you leave so abruptly,"
"I wished to put your heart at ease,"
She looked at him again and drew her eyebrow in, confused,
"I sought out my brother,"
Her lips parted,
"Why,"
"To make my intentions known,"
"And did you?"
"Hn,"
Her heart drummed against her chest; he could feel it. She looked around.
"Do you wish it was he who returned and not I,"
She looked up again "That isn't fair, he is my best friend, and you are-
"What Miko, I am what?"
She couldn't say lover, but her cheeks burned with the thought and she wanted to look away again, but he was not about to let her; his finger lifted her chin, and his mouth came down; slowly and smoothly he kissed her, and she melted into his warm lips.
When he let her up for air she mumbled, "Your my, something,"
"Alpha," He said,
That made her blush in places she didn't know could feel blush. Heat rushed.
"Soon to be lover." He added feeling the heat build in her "If you will accept this one,"
He could smell her shy desire.
His mouth went to her "Mate, husband, Lord, whichever term pleases you,"
She shivered with need, and she grabbed his shirt to pull herself closer to him,
"The boy will not reject nor approve, but I want all of you, Miko, with no regret and what ifs, I am selfish in that,"
"Wait, you went to get his approval?"
"I do not seek anything from him, I merely wished to bring him back for you,"
"You, you were going to bring him back?"
"It was what your heaty wanted, what stalls you from letting yourself be with me,"
Kagome could not believe her ears. It was romantic, in a weird demon-possessive kind of way.
"Sesshomaru, this isn't about Inuyasha, it's complicated,"
"Tell me,"
"I, I thought I loved him in the way that a woman loves a man, but I was just a girl from another world who fell into his, and while I will always love him as a person, I know he isn't my soulmate," Really if she thought about it, she should have known that all along.
He listens, golden eyes never leaving her green ones.
"But I felt wrong, I didn't want to jump from one brother to another like some hopeless needy girl stuck here from the future, It isn't about Inuyasha per say,"
"You merely picked the wrong brother, Miko, it happens,"
Her jaw dropped. "It does not!"
"Besides, I came to you; you did not jump to anyone, and it has been years,"
That was true.
"I wanted to be sure my feelings for you were true and not some syndrome,"
"And have you come to a conclusion?"
"I dunno, you up at left, so I didn't get to test them out,"
He smirked, fang showing, and she knew she had messed up. "Sesshomaru,"
In a blink, she was in his arms, and they were in the sky, the bucket of water tipped over and forgotten.
"Sorry, Sango..." Kagome's voice trailed as Sesshomaru flew away with her.
Sango sheilded her eyes from the sun as she watched. "Lord Sesshoamru is back."
"Oh?"
"And he kidnapped Kagome,"
"Good, good,"
Sango looked back at her husband "You know at one time, that would be worrisome,"
"I give it 24 hours before she's his wife."
Sango rolled her eyes. "Not everyone is a pervert like you,"
"24 hours," He said in a sing-song voice,
"Three weeks!" Sango yelled back, and they went back and forth till Miroku had her widdled down to 3 three days.
They would both be wrong.
