Melodic Memory
Chapter 23
Kagome wasn't certain how long they had been driving for but she woke to the
sound of the engine being turned off and a rustling of keys. She quickly
removed herself from Sesshoumaru and stretched. She looked over at him.
"How long have I been asleep?"
"About 4 hours." She hadn't realized it had been that long.
"Where are we?"
"Not too far away from our destination, I merely needed some gas and I thought I
would grab myself some coffee, theres a coffee shop just down the road."
"Coffee eh?" She smiled.
"Yes, it seems this Sesshoumaru has become quite addicted to them ever
since."
Kagome nodded, "I would like one too, I'll go with you."
"Alright then."
Kagome watched Sesshoumaru casually place a credit card into the machine
from the passenger door, she had opened it as if a way to keep him company or
herself, she watched as he handled the pump and placed it into his cars tank.
She was mystified for some reason why it didn't seem right, it seemed down right
queer to see Sesshoumaru pumping gas into his car. But he did it so eloquently
she wasn't about to refuse the view. Everything he did seemed, to her, to be
erotic, sensual, and overly casual, as if he had been doing this all his life. And in
realistic terms he probably had been, but for her it was so very pleasing to the
eye, she wondered if he did it on purpose, she wondered if he had perfected this
way of being just to seduce women. She laughed. No, that couldn't be it. She
was obviously insane. Or hopelessly attracted to him. The latter seemed to hit
the mark.
Sesshoumaru looked over at her with a raised brow, it seemed to be his way of a
non-vocal communication of a question. He did it often and she considered it as
this. She was still thinking this over and so Sesshoumaru felt he should add
vocals for surprise.

"And what are you laughing at?"
"Hmm?!"
"I asked what you were laughing at?"
"Oh, nothing, nothing."
He grunted but did not press the issue. Kagome sunk into her seat and blew her
careless bangs out of her eyes. She was lucky he didn't press the issue, she
was sure she'd have no answer, she felt embarrassed always thinking of him, in
more ways then she could count. Just thinking about it now caused her heated
flesh to turn a dark shade of red. Suddenly she felt soft lips against her neck
and warm breath against her skin.
"I have an idea though.." He smirked.
Kagome gasped, she hadn't even heard him finish pumping the gas, nor had she
heard him replace the gas cap. She had obviously been thinking far too much.
She smiled up at him even more red then before. He came closer towards her
ear.
"You know, you have to stop doing that, its very sexy." He whispered.
Kagome shivered. "What your doing is incredibly sexy!!!" She screamed in her
head. She couldn't believe the feelings he invoked.
He parked the car at the front of the cafe and walked inside. The wonderful
blend of rich coffees and milk assaulted their senses. Kagome inhaled deeply,
she loved the scent of coffee shops and her nose was her critic to whether it was
a good one or a bad one. This one smelled to be good. She smiled and walked
up to the counter. Two young ladies walked up to the counter to assist them.
They seemed to be staring at Sesshoumaru with severe blushes. She wondered
if he received this type of attention al the time.
"What can I get for you today Miss?"
"I would like a tal House blend with a shot of Vanilla and Hazelnut please."
"Coming right up."
"And for you Sir?" She asked in a syrupy voice, much more cheerful, her eyes
gleamed in the face of Sesshoumaru. Kagome didn't know why but she was
annoyed by this girl, but she guarded these feelings well. No one around her
noticed a thing.
"I will take a Vente Vanilla latte, 2 percent." He instructed with a voice of pure

boredom at the girls obvious attitude. The girl seemed to shrug and then placed
the cup over at the counter for the other girl to make.
Sesshoumaru looked around the cafe and then to Kagome. He quickly drew her
closer to him, his hands laced in her own.
"Does this mean you will be keeping me company for the rest of the drive
home?" His eyes flashed a smile, if that were possible. Kagome thought it was,
for the short time she'd spent with him she was beginning to pick up on all his
non-verbal communication skills. She felt she was getting quite good at it too.
"Yes Sess, I will."
"Good." He smiled.
The girls cal ed out the drinks, smiling at Kagome yet she noticed the pang of
jealousy within their eyes. She cursed herself at such thoughts. She could
never be sure thats what it was, maybe she was overreacting? They walked
outside into the warm yet breezy evening air. The humidity was bearable and
summer was straining to hold on a little longer. Kagome normally didn't enjoy
summer so much, she didn't care for the endless days of humid, hot, sweaty
weather. She loved fall and winter. Fall was a wonderful time to be in Japan,
many festivals were held, her own family celebrated many within the shrine
during the harvest festivals. This would be her first one in a long time attending.
"Sesshoumaru?"
He was about to take a sip of his coffee but stopped with the rim of the white cup
holding his gentle lips at bay. His eyes looked over at her. He looked delicious
in that moment.
"I was wondering, its not until next month but I was wondering if you would like to
attend my families shrine for the Harvest festival?"
"Where did this come from?"
Kagome laughed, "Well I was suddenly thinking of Fall, it will be here soon and it
will be the first time in a couple years that I will actually be attending the festival,
and I thought perhaps you might enjoy coming along with me?"
Sesshoumaru paused. Kagome became, suddenly, very aware of her question
and wanted to smack herself for asking it. 'It's not like we are dating or anything
Kagome? Whats wrong with you, maybe he can't?' She battled within. Kagome
quickly sought refuge in her next offer.
"...But if you can't it's not a big deal."
"I would love to attend Kagome, I will need the date as to clear it of all other

responsibilities, but I see no problem in attending."
Kagome blushed. She was doing that a lot with him.
"Thank you Sess."
He bowed his head and opened her car door. As he started up the car he
looked over at Kagome.
"Does this mean you'll be wearing a traditional kimono?" He smiled.
"It does." She laughed.
"And what makes you think I would miss an opportunity such as that?"
She laughed again.
"You want to see me in a Kimono?"
"Of course, Kimono's look flattering and very beautiful on many women, I think
you will look quite stunning in one."
"You do realize you will have to wear one too?"
"I am aware."
"Do you have one?"
"Yes, at my father's home, perhaps one of these weekends you would like to go
with me and retrieve it?"
"Sure."
They headed back unto the highway and communication ceased with the
beautiful views of Mountains and hills and rural ryokans (Japanese Inns) spread
around and near the road. Kagome sipped her coffee generously and looked out
the window towards the beaming lights here and there marking the inns and
smal homes littering the countryside. Kagome turned to look at Sesshoumaru,
he too was sipping his coffee. She wanted to hear his silky voice again. She
couldn't help herself.
"So what happened to Rin the other night after you left my apartment?"
"She had gotten a flat near my fathers residence, she told me she was picking
something up and on the way out her tire blew and so I called road side service
out and took her home."
"Oh."

"I was worried for her, but I was more annoyed with leaving your presence."
Kagome's heart stopped. Everytime he paid her a gentle suave comment the
world stopped. This never happened with Inuyasha, she never got the giggles
with each thought of him, she never had shivers run down her spine at the
thought of his touch. Sesshoumaru did things to her that should have been
illegal. She couldn't help but think about the last weekend, the lovemaking in his
bed across from the fire, the sexual encounter in the kitchen. She'd never look
at Strawberry shortcake the same way again. She smirked.
Sesshoumaru pulled her from her musings with the hold on her chin, he
motioned her face towards his.
"We will be close to our homes soon, perhaps you would spend the night
Kagome?"
She sighed. She wanted to, she wanted to so badly. She was putty at his
fingertips. She knew she couldn't, instead fate had her tied to the inevitable
meeting with Kouga tomorrow. He would be there in the morning so they could
work on this new project together.
"I really want to Sess, but I can't."
His eyes revealed his disappointment, he slowly let go of her chin. The loss of
his touch was agonizing. She wanted so desperately to feel him again.
"Perhaps some other time." He replied.
Kagome was seething inside, 'This is all your fault Kouga, stupid Kouga!'
"Perhaps...not." She smiled devilishly.
He looked at her, eyes wide in surprise.
She continued smiling at him.
"What do you mean?" He attempted to seem bored with the conversation but
the overlying hurt was there. Kagome felt bad for teasing him this way.
"I mean, perhaps you'd like to stay at my place, you see, Kouga has to come
over tomorrow morning to meet with me regarding this new project and I really
don't want to be alone with him?"
He chuckled lightly. Obviously thrown off.
"Clever girl you are."
That revealed more then he was willing to admit.

"I will stay with you Kagome, on one condition."
"Whats that?"
"You wear that Hello Kitty outfit again." He smiled.
Kagome couldn't help herself and laughed. She thought it was cute that he liked
that outfit on her. She would wear it, she couldn't guarantee how long, but she
would wear it for him.
When they arrived back to her apartment, after briefly stopping at his own to
grab a few things they made it to her apartment. As they walked through the
door Kagome walked over to the air conditioner and turned it on.
"Ugh this house is hot and stuffy."
Sesshoumaru placed his items in the bedroom and before Kagome could do
another thing his hands were around her waist. With a yelp Kagome was
suddenly picked up and straddling Sesshoumaru's hips. He looked down at her
and quickly locked his lips upon her own. The kiss was feverish and exciting.
He opened her mouth with hungered dominance swirling his tongue against her
own, his breathing grew louder with each thrust of his tongue into her open
mouth. From lack of air Kagome quickly removed her face from his. Their lips
caused a smacking sound to resound within the apartment with an echo that left
much to her imagination. Sesshoumaru laid his forehead against her own. He
licked his lips slowly.
"I want you Kagome, I must have you right now." He proclaimed in a husky
whisper.
Kagome said nothing, she merely planted her swollen lips upon his own. The
feverish kissing began anew. He had said what she had been thinking ever
since she had awoken in the car earlier. He really was that irresistible.
Legs tightening against his waist His clothing strewn about the room and hallway
during the way to the bedroom were al but forgotten as he softly laid her against
her freshly made bed. She thanked Kami for having it made. She loved laying
against her soft velvet throw. He slowly crawled over her body stopping at her
chest, the only thing left was her skirt that was now riding above her hips, her
light blouse and undergarments. He made quick work of the blouse and had
already undone her bra clasp. 'How does he do that?' She thought. She was
attempting to rid the skirt but he stopped her hands and looked up at her.
"uh uh, that stays on." He said smirking.
Kagome laughed, moving up to meet him for a delicious kiss. His hands slid
under her skirt and slowly removed the last of her undergarments. As he did so
his fingertips gently brushed against her innermost thighs, Kagome moaned in

delight. He took this as invitation for more. His hands moved back up her silky
legs and between them. He spread her thighs apart and moved his lips above
and around her most sensitive of areas. Kagome cried in anticipation of his
touch. He was teasing her, she loved it, his lips burned her sides and caused
ripples of ecstasy to run through her body. His long tendrils caressed her
exposed skin along her legs. The whole feeling of his warm body, his soft skin
against hers was enough to drive her into multiple shivers. And just when she
thought she couldn't take the teasing any longer she felt his wet tongue lap
against her bundle of nerves in the tenderest of actions. She screamed silently.
Well she had attempted to scream but all that came out was a silent squeak or
sorts. Her breathing became ragged.
"Oh Sesshoumaru!" She moaned.
He dove deeper into her, lapping at her nub in repetitive motions that drove her
closer and closer. Slowly Sesshoumaru slid his hands up over her skirt and up
her stomach to her pert breasts. Pinching and caressing them with each lap of
his tongue. Kagome caught fire. Her moans grew louder as her orgasm
reached its zenith. Her legs tightened around his head gently, she whispered his
name as she came. The waves of pleasure rushing by caused somewhat of a
short-lived headache from the intensity. Her eyes were closed in concentration.
She then released a breath she didn't realize she had been withholding.
Sesshoumaru looked up from her spread legs and smirked at her.
"Are you alright?"
"Yes, just a small headache."
"I, caused a headache, that real y wasn't my intention." He chuckled.
"No, it was so great Sesshoumaru, my head couldn't handle it."
He laughed this time.
"I know other ways to relieve that type of pressure." He rose a sexy eyebrow,
and dare she think it, in a very flirtatious glare.
"Yah know what?"
"Hmm?"
"You look good between my legs?" She was drunk off the pleasure. Yes that
was the reasoning behind such a comment, she mused.
"Do I?"
She nodded slightly giggling. She watched as his hands ran back down to her

inner thighs. One drew lazy circles against her leg. The other swirled
dangerously around her already overly sensitive area. He watched her face the
entire time. He smirked and ran his index finger along her opening and then into
it, pumping his finger slowly in and out. Her body relaxed on contact. Her soft
mews and wet passage called to him on a very primal level. He crawled over her
body to devour her lips once again. Holding his finger in place as he slowly
continued to pump her, her core flooding at the sensation. As he kissed her lips
and neck in ravenous hunger he removed his finger and quickly flipped her over.
Kagome yelped again in surprise. She wasn't expecting that. But all too quickly
he had slid his hard rock member into her hot tunnel causing a grown from
Kagome. At first he gently ran his hands across her hips, moving the skirt up
slightly.
He enjoyed seeing her in just her black skirt above her waist. It looked naughty.
And he loved it. He thought seeing her from this position was quite erotic, her
back arched in a beautiful curve with every thrust. He watched as her hands
curled and tightened against the unsuspecting pillows, revealing the pleasure of
him inside her. He began to push faster into her. Her moans grew louder as did
his own. He moved his hands around her stomach up to her supple breasts,
teasing and pinching them during his quick and filling thrusts. She felt so tight
and wet. He wanted more. He had desperately wanted this the day before. Sex
with Kagome was amazing, he loved it. Her back arched more and he pulled her
flush against his chest kissing the junction between her neck and shoulder.
Kagome expressed her pleasure with this in her deep breaths and whispers of
his name. The room was saturated with a sticky humidity that clung to both of
them, breathing and moans dominated each others auditories. They stayed in
this position for awhile as Sesshoumaru slowly and agonizingly pumped into her
while making love to her mouth. Things changed quite suddenly though when he
could no longer take it, he gently pushed her back down. She followed his lead
easily. His hands grasped her hips tightly as he thrust in and out with powerful
inertia. Finally when Kagome thought she could take no more she felt the rush
of another orgasm swallow her whole, at that very moment Sesshoumaru himself
came. They both moaned each others names aloud. The sound was deafening,
but the feeling was unbelievable! Tears sprung to Kagomes eyes after the rush
left her. Sesshoumaru fell to the side scooping her up into his arms in the
process. She curled and twisted in his embrace to properly lay against his chest.
His heart was beating at an extremely high rate. She enjoyed listening to it beat.
She listened until it slowed to a steady rhythm. His eyes were closed and his
lips were slightly parted. Sweat glistened above his top lip. He looked so
beautiful to her, his hair, his skin, his tender breaths of life. She couldn't fathom
a man being an fairer then him, yet so masculine at the same time. He moved
his head against hers and kissed her lips.
"Did we...?"
"Yes, we did." Kagome interrupted smiling. She was still in shock over it, but
she knew they had. They had come at the same time. Was that even possible?
Not that it mattered, it had happened and it was wonderful.

Sesshoumaru pulled her closer to him.
"Sess?"
"Yes?"
"What about Hello Kitty?"
He smirked and laughed that silent laughter he often did.
"I like Naked Kagome better."
Kagome laughed and snuggled closer to him. She liked Naked Sesshoumaru
better too.
They soon fell asleep in her modest little queen sized bed, wrapped in each
others arms. As Kagome let sleep take her, a melody played within her mind, a
melody Sesshoumaru had played on the piano the very first time they had ever
been together. She smiled and moved closer to him. She loved sleeping with
him. It was scary and exciting how comfortable she truly was with him. She
didn't think she could sleep without him anymore. Hopefully he felt the same
way.

About damn time I know. So here it is, it took me forever to write this chapter at
first I wasn't going to add a lemon, but then I thought, why have rotten fruit
thrown at me by all those lemon addicted people? So there it is. This actually
stretches my original intent for this chapter. And so the next chapter (which Im
writing RIGHT NOW haha) will be the meeting with Kouga and Kagome, and of
course Sesshoumaru. The next chapter some interesting things arise in the
relationship between Kagome and Sess, and we shall see how forthcoming they
will be with communication with each other. Ugh, just get on with it yah know,
you liker her, she likes you DUH! HAH. But when have Kagome or
Sesshoumaru been easily forthcoming with their feelings? Yeah.
Also, I wil NOT be placing this chapter on FF.net, due to their strict rules, so
from hence forth the chapters will be one less on FF.net. :)
So once again, thank you soo much for all the reviews!!! I will be listing names
and such on the next chapter that way I can get to work on it right now. ^.^
Now you know what to do, go ahead, press that button
Down there, right there ^.-
