Chapter 4
Sesshomaru awoke to a cool breeze brushing gently against his face. He opened his eyes. He could tell by the light casting shadows on the wall that it was late in the afternoon. He felt the stir of two soft supple bare legs entangled within his own. He stiffened slightly then relaxed as he played back lastnight's events in his head. He mentally smiled when he thought of the moments when he kissed Kagome. "Kagome!" He thought. Here he was, laying next to this vision, this beautiful creature that had shown him a new and fantastic experience! He never once thought of her as Inuyasha's ex. Only Kagome, for that was really who she was. He pulled her closer to him and breathed in her fresh scent. She suddenly stirred in his arms and her eyes fluttered open. Kagome yawned and stretched like a cat within Sesshomaru's embrace.
morning Kagome." Sesshomaru announced.
Good morning Sess." Kagome replied half yawning and smiling at the same time. It was a cute sight to behold.
all honesty it is closer to the evening then the morning." Sesshomaru informed her.
"Wow, I've never slept that long before." She yawned again.
puffed his pillow and placed his hands beneath it and looked at her, she mimicked the movement. They now smiled facing eachother.
you have anywhere you need to be today Kagome?" Sesshomaru asked with sleepy eyes.
I never plan anything two days after I roll." "I call it my 'recovery' time." She explained.
that's smart." Sesshomaru replied.
when would you like to take me home?" Kagome asked quite suddenly.
raised an eyebrow and asked, " Are you in a hurry to leave?"
really, I would love to stay here all night long", she responded, smiling lazily.
by all means do.""The pleasure would be all mine". " Perhaps you might be as hungry as I?" Sesshomaru offered. " Maybe we could go out to eat?"
would love to, but promise we will come back here and lay in this bed some more?" Kagome asked seductively.
I promise." "You like my home?" Sesshomaru asked excitedly.
I love it, you have a very comfortable place, and I just love this bed" Kagome said moving around the bed. She enveloped her body in the covers and squeezed the pillow caressing her head, all the while smiling with closed eyes pinched with satisfaction.
look so adorable wrapped up in my sheets Kagome." Sesshomaru professed.
need a bed like this Sess" Kagome cooed.
until you get one, you can sleep in mine whenever you like". He said flirtaciously.
laughed, " Be careful, I may just do that!"
laughed slightly embaressed. Her cheeks flushed red. Sesshomaru sat up beside her and and brushed the stray strands of ebony hair away from her face.
are so beautiful Kagome." Sesshomaru confessed. His low calm, voice echoed softly through the dimly lit room like birds wings flapping in motion through some deep forest.
smiled. It was really all she could do. Saying anything that breathed acceptance could not be tolerated in this soothing moment. Kagome was mesmerized by his voice and entranced by his eyes. She soon sat up to break the peaceful bond they birthed from their desires for one another. Kagome gulped silently as she moved the blankets back uncautiously to reveal her bare legs up to the innermost part of her thighs. She had forgotten she was wearing his robe and nothing underneath. She gasped quite suddenly, but before more embaressment could sieze her, Sesshomaru casually lifted the robe over her legs to cover her modestly. Kagome was awestruck by his actions. Never before had a man been so generous and sweet. If she had done something similar in front of Inuyasha he would have been all over her in seconds! But this wasn't Inuyasha. This was the respectable, kind, thoughtful, gentlemanly, irresistible Sesshomaru.
I believe your clothes are ready, let me get them for you." Sesshomaru said breaking the silence. He entered the hallway and opened the doors to the laundry room. Kagome could hear him moving things around and closing the dryer door. She watched as he re-entered the room with the clothes nicely folded in hand. He laid them on the bed beside her.
Sess. Umm..."
Sesshomaru guided her on.
Would it be too much to ask you to take me by my place so I can freshen up a bit more and maybe put on some diffrent clothes?" Kagome finished her question with reluctance.
chuckled, " You act as if you are my prisoner, of course you can, I would love to see your place." "But your not going to ditch me once we reach your home are we?" Sesshomaru asked playfully.
why would I pass up dinner with a handsome gentleman such as yourself?" Kagome playfully retorted.
shrugged and smiled.
Kagome dressed they headed down the stairs together to the parking garage where his BMW was parked. Sesshomaru made his way to the passenger door and held it open for Kagome and waited until she was properly seated in the vehicle before gently closing the door. Kagome remarked on what excellent manners he had achieved. She was dissapointed with that fact that Inuyasha could have come from the same family and not learned such desirable qualities for himself. Sesshomaru slipped into the drivers seat and buckled himself in. Kagome followed suit and he started the car. His car was very new and it was the scent of 'new car smell' and that edible cologne he wore. She wasn't sure what it was but it was intoxicating. As they exited the parking garage the city expanded beyond the horizon with the sky kissed by the last rays of the sun, leaving purple and red streaks across the sky. Kagome noted that she could just make out the first stars in the night sky. It was a breathtaking view. Sesshomaru opened the moon roof so Kagome could get a better view of the nights show that was about to begin. She smiled, her mouth parted in awe over the incredible view. Sesshomaru watched also, but not the sky. He watched her.
gave him directions to her place. It only took them about 20 minutes to reach her apartment. She directed him to park near a deep blue Honda Accord. "That's my car and this is my additonal parking space." "You can park here." She said. She reached into her purse and pulled out her keys and her cell phone.
here please." Sesshomaru suddenly said.
watched as Sesshomaru walked around the car to open her door for her. She slipped out neatly. She stayed in front of him so that when he shut the door his arm automatically came around her and held her in his embrace. He lifted his eyebrows in slight mischevious confusion and made that irriesistible smirk she was begining to love. He opened his arms to release her and allow her to lead the way to her apartment. On the way to her door she turned her cell phone on.
my gosh, I have 15 missed calls!" Kagome said suddenly in surprise.
must be worried about you." Sesshomaru offered.
They are all from Sango, I am sure she has been worried sick about me, since I was supposed to call her today." Kagome added.
opened the door to her place and flicked on the lights. Sesshomaru scanned the apartment. He liked the style of her home. She had a few famous art pictures on the wall that caught his attention. The walls were painted a mocha color with white borders, there was a small tan suede sofa against the wall, a flat screen television hanging against the opposite wall. Two candle sconces hung on each side of the television. A small coffee table had a coffee mug on it with a book of Kaun Yin poems laying next to it. Her kitchen was simple and tidy except for a few dishes drying on the rack. She dropped her keys in a wicker basket that lay upon an ornate japanese cabinet that stood next to the hallway entrance. Rugs adorned the wood paneled floors. All asian in style. She had a desk in the dining room with a laptop open on top of it. Old world style globes and pictures of old world maps were placed neatly all around the office area. He liked her place. It reminded him of his own.
make yourself at home." " I will be right back, I am going to go put something else on and freshen up, okay." Kagome said, shocking Sesshomaru out of his daze.
he confirmed.
could hear Kagome speaking in the other room. He knew she was talking to Sango. Kagome was reassuring Sango she was alright. Sesshomaru decided to occupy himself for the time being, he looked around at the paintings on the wall. One of them was of a strange picture of what looked like a person walking, but the picture was distorted somehow. He liked the painting and walked closer to see who it was by; "Nude descending a staircase/ Marcel Duchamp." He liked this painting. Finally after a few moments of looking it over he sat down on the comfy sofa and waited patiently. He pondered what this night may hold for him, what his future may hold, and if Kagome would be any part of it. He wanted her to be part of it. He had never been so excited to take someone out before. He had been on dates before, but not like this. He felt a close connection with Kagome. A comfortable connection, almost like they had already been dating for awhile, but with the excitement and lust still intact.
revealed herself not too long after he had sat down. He was still staring up at the painting when she walked into the living room. She wore kahki cargo pants and tight little powder blue button down top that revealed a small hint of skin at the bottom.
you like that picture?" Kagome asked.
as it may be, I find it intriguing." Sesshomaru said suddenly gazing up at the picture.
one of my favorites. It makes me think of someone's movements frozen in diffrent sets of time with every set of footsteps made. I find myself staring at that picture alot." She explained gazing at it too. "Well shall we go?" She implied.
your bag of stuff?" Sesshomaru asked smiling.
stared at him in confusion. " What do you mean bag of stuff?"
thought we were going back to my house after this?" He said amused at her baffled look.
laughed. " Well, I didn't think we would be going back, but if you insist, let me bring a few things along." Kagome walked into her room and started to rummage through drawers. She heard low footsteps coming from the hallway towards her room.
A small voice echoed through her room. Sesshomaru was leaning against the doorway. "Bring something comfortable to sleep in." He mused.
lifted her eyebrow at him and smirked. She pulled out pink pajamas with Hello Kitty all over them. " Will these do?" Kagome asked.
will do fine." " Tonight I'm having a sleepover, and your invited." He said cutely. His smile curved at one edge of his mouth and Kagome couldn't resist giving him a little peck where the crease started as she flicked the light off and brushed by him out of her bedroom. Sesshomaru's eye's widened and his smile straightened out to reveal his pleasure with her response. He breathed in her scent of cherry blossoms and freesia shampoo.
was also excited. She wanted to stay with Sesshomaru, she wondered if he had been reading her mind the entire time. She wasn't really up for going out and being around people. She felt drained still from the night before. What Sesshomaru offered was exactly what she needed.
shall we go Sess." Kagome asked.
let's get something to eat." He answered.
and Kagome turned the lights out in the house. Kagome locked the door and Sesshomaru held tightly unto the duffle bag she brought with her. He opened the trunk of his car and placed the contents inside. They drove off into the night to the nearest chinese take-out and movie rental place. They were both tired from the night before so they decided to get take-out and eat inside Sesshomaru's apartment.
thought to herself how daring this all was. She couldn't believe she was doing this. They were both adults, enjoying eachothers company, he wasn't only a desirable lover to Kagome, he was her friend. But at the same time it felt so right, as if Sesshomaru and she were already dating, yet the lust and mystery had yet to be revealed. She shivered with anticipation for the nights beginings. Sesshomaru looked at her beside him and smiled.
are going to have fun tonight, just you and me." Sesshomaru said reassuringly. It was obvious he felt the same way she did.
It took me a long time to finish this chapter, I think I spent the entire weekend going over it. It's hard to go from party scene to chill scene. I hope this does well!
