Chapter Four
Angry Fluff
 
Sesshoumaru had never ever thought that he would have to say this, but circumstances left it up to him to have no choice. "My feet hurt."
 
Stella laughed. She actually laughed at him. "You're such a big baby, Fluffy. Mine do too, but sometimes you just have to put up with it, ya know?"
 
"No." He sighed and stared at his feet as they came one in front of the other. He started counting steps. At thirty seven, he was interrupted. "Hn?" He said.
 
"I said, whats the matter?" Stella was looking worriedly at him. "You look all....iffy."
 
"Iffy?" He sounded offended like always.
 
She rolled her eyes. "Why are you so damn quiet all the time? You could just talk to me."
 
"I...can't." He frowned. If he told her even one thing, it would be far too much. There wasn't much that he could tell her. "There's nothing to tell."
 
"Bah.(AN/I thought she should make a sheep noise?) Sure there is. Tell me...about your friends."
 
Um...there was Rin. Was she a friend? And Jaken-ah no. So were his allies?...nope. Inu- not even considerable. "I have none." He remarked after some thought.
 
"Really? Okay, that was an oops. So how about family? Everyone has that."
 
Oh. She sounded so uncaring about him not having any friends. Should he be angry? He didn't see where they were at all important. It didn't matter then? "Either deceased or unfavorable."
 
"They have names don't they?" She tilted her head to the side.
 
"Of course they do, but I see no reason to share their names with you."
 
She scowled. "How about the names of those unfavorable ones?"
 
"His name is Inuyasha."
 
He let that sink in with her. "Really?" She didn't sound surprised, just interested. "Would that be the one that is Kagome's boyfriend?"
 
Sesshoumaru frowned and wondered how this girl knew the miko. "Yes. I think."
 
Stella laughed. "He's a jerk! I can't blame you! What an idiot!"
 
He smirked and found himself warming up to the conversation. But he had to know, "How do you know that he's an idiot?"
 
"Kagome Higurashi is my cousin. She always comes home crying after having fights with Inuyasha because he's cheating on her. Besides, the way he does things sounds retarded to me."
 
So she hasn't even met him yet and already she dislikes him? "Yes. He is a foolish mutt."
 
"Half breed, right?" She threw him a skeptical glance. "Half idiot."
 
"Has to be more than half." Sesshoumaru retorted. "I wouldn't believe it was possible for him to become any less intelligent."
 
Stella burst into a fit of laughter. He found himself smirking. "I love you, Fluffy!" She exclaimed. He froze, but she apparently didn't notice. In fact, they had stopped walking and Stella was now leaning on his shoulder for support, because she was laughing so hard.
 
He began to worry and tried to forget why her words had made him shiver. "Get off." He snapped at her.
 
She flinched back and started wiping tears from her eyes. "Um, sorry, but that was great."
 
The words easily amused crossed the youkai's mind, but he let them slide. He was growing...er...fond of this girl.
 
Fond? He crossed his arms. "That cannot be good." Sesshoumaru muttered under his breath. Being human continued to make him have thoughts like that. There was no other explanation. Damn I'm going to kill that sorceress.
 
Stella sighed at his cold attitude. "It's nearly noon and we haven't gotten anywhere. You know, Fluffy, I think that I should learn to say your name."
 
That was a quick subject change. "Well, you can attempt to, but I doubt your success."
 
"Just you watch." Stella cleared her throat. "What was it again?" She said after an intake of breath.
 
He almost laughed. "Sesshoumaru." He thought, better yet, and added,
"-sama."
 
"You dummy. I wouldn't call you -sama if you paid me for it."
 
What if I killed you? His mind said, but he quickly kicked that thought out of the door. His inner demon decided to speak. Oooo, now it gets interesting. So you don't want to kill her now?
 
Sesshoumaru closed his eyes. Of course I do. He told that part of himself. Why, that's what I do. I am Sesshoumaru. I. Kill. Humans.
 
Really?
 
Yes.
 
This human.
 
He hesitated. Certainly.
 
Why?
 
She's...
 
Pretty?
 
NO!
 
Well, what?
 
Annoying. And too talkative and...
 
Hates your brother too?
 
Yes. Wait. Aren't you my inner demon? Emphasis on the 'demon' part.
 
Duh.
 
Then why are you trying to get me to...
 
What? His inner demon was taunting him now.
 
Nothing. No. It's nothing.
 
You liiiiiike her.
 
"Do not." Sesshoumaru immediately snapped his mouth shut. Did he really just say that out loud?
 
Stella glanced at him. They were walking again with her on his left. "Don't what?" She asked.
 
He sighed. It was very long and very much like a yawn. "Want to be like this anymore." He added, knowing it would confuse her.
 
"Okay then. Don't. Talk to me. Tell me all your dirty little secrets. That's not like you at all is it?"
 
He grimaced. "No. And that's not what I meant.
 
"Fluffy-no, you don't care for that do you? Sesshoumaru-" His eyes widened a fraction. "I know that you aren't normal. There is something particularly off with you."
 
Still amazed that she remembered his name, he allowed her to continue. "I can't help but notice that you're wearing battle armor. You carry two swords. You have really pretty hair and you ask weird questions when you do talk."
 
"You think it's pretty?" He interrupted. Did I really just say that? You did, you sly dog. His inner demon remarked.
 
Stella smiled. It was very sweet and soft. Very human. "Yes it is." Then, to his amazement, she reached out and grabbed a handful of his black hair. He frowned at the color, missing the shiney silvery whiteness of it. She would probably like it better. He tried not to think about why that pleased him.
 
"It's very nice." Stella added. "And so are you, Fluffy. You just don't know it yet."
 
He opened his mouth to protest, but she put her hand over it. "No." She hissed, smirking.
 
Why was it that he was getting to let this human boss him around. You haven't forgotten have you? Demon Sesshy came out of the dark again. Right now, you're human too.
 
It wasn't a joke this time. His anger was rising. He loathed being human, and thus he loathed all of humanity. He hated being weak and pathetic and just not invincible. With his normal features, he was practically immortal. No one, save his stupid brother and Naraku, would dare challenge him as a demon.
 
No one. Not even Stella. She was just holding him back. Without warning, he dug his teeth-not fangs-into her fingers. She screamed and yanked back. Blood was soaking her hand. She glared at him.
 
"Why the hell did you do that?" She yelled, glaring at him. Truthfully, she was heart broken. She had thought that she was really finally getting somewhere with him.
 
"Don't touch me again, girl." His voice was so anger ridden and so hateful that she jumped back.
 
"Godammit, Sesshoumaru!" His name on her lips almost made him take it all back. Almost.
 
She just knew that there was more to it than that. Perhaps, he just wasn't used to people getting so close. There was something odd that flickered in his eyes when he bit her that made her feel horrible for him.
 
"I know you've got problems, Fluffy, but that was entirely uneccessary. Talking works better than biting." I should just run away, but I like him. She'd been telling herself this all day. He was weird and mean, but she was definitely sweet on him. I'm not leaving until I at least get a hug.
 
And that would take some work.
 
"Leave. Your presence is not necessary." He told her that, and she huffed, making him raise a brow.
 
"I don't know what made you snap but," she lurched at him, throwing him on the ground. Sesshoumaru didn't want to relive the hair pulling moment in his life. He acted by twisting and somehow holding her down instead.
 
"You will leave me alone." He growled.
 
She grinned and squirmed. "I will not." Sesshoumaru had been rolled over and was now again at her mercy. Damn all of humanity....
 
"You don't get it, Sesshoumaru-sama. I ain't leaving any time soon."
 
"Why?" He spat.
 
"Cuz you're too much fun and now I am worried for your sanity and feel that I must make sure it isn't there."
 
"Huh?"
 
"Yep. You must stay insane for me."
 
How do we get rid of her?! Inner Sesshoumaru was screaming. She's infuriating!
 
Maybe...
 
What? Stella surprised both inner and outer Sesshoumaru by planting a quick kiss on his brow. She got off of him, blushing.
 
Let's keep her, both his sides agreed. She's interesting. Outer Sesshy said.
 
Oh yes. The other agreed. She's a keeper.
 
***end chapter.
 
*O.O* That was very long for me. I liked it tho. I know what ur thinking. Finally some fluff right? And I love Sesshy's inner demon. He's great. I know. I know. Things are running far too smoothly.
