A New Day
Kagome slowly awoke from one of the most peaceful nights of sleep that she had ever had. Her mind began its process of waking up and as so she remembered last night’s events. Sesshomaru had saved her from Kagura and held her in his arms like a lover would. She smiled as she remembered the love swirling around in his liquid golden orbs. Stretching her arms up and over her head Kagome could now feel two hands wrapped around her waist and back, supporting her.
She brought her arms back down and rubbed her eyes until she was able to clearly see her savior. She looked up to see two golden eyes looking back into her blue gray ones. Kagome was fascinated at how Sesshomaru’s eyes watched her. The golden color was like liquid gold with glitter mixed in with it making it seemingly sparkle with life. Looking closer Kagome could see his emotions as clear a day. She now understood that even though Sesshomaru didn’t show his emotions on his features or in his voice he showed them in his wonderful eyes. Now the emotion was that of happiness, relief, and something that she wasn’t quite familiar with except on those rare occasions with Inuyasha when her life was put in danger. Love.
“Ohayo Sessho” Kagome yawned as she erased the last remaining sleep from her system.
“Ohayo Kagome” Sesshomaru spoke in his usually bored tone but with a hint of warmth in its depths. Kagome suddenly felt like she was high up from the ground, like the feeling she got when she used to ride on Inuyasha’s back, soaring through the air. Looking down she gasped and clung tightly to Sesshomaru’s hakama as she saw how high she was up from the ground.
“You are not fond of heights?” Sesshomaru asked jokingly and clearly amused.
“Iie!” Kagome closed her eyes as she tried to fight the uneasiness quelling in her stomach. Sesshomaru chuckled. Not finding what was so funny Kagome opened her eyes until they were mere slits and glared up at Sesshomaru who was still chuckling at her antics.
“Do you find this funny?” Kagome asked as anger seeped into her voice making her sound eerie though she was not really mad at him.
“Hai, you amuse me to no end Kagome” Sesshomaru tweaked her nose with his index finger and thumb. Kagome was sort of freaked out that he had did that as her anger was forgot for the moment.
“Why did you do that?” she opened her eyes all the way and stared at him with confused eyes as she was still a little shocked.
“I could not resist, besides it made you forget your fear of heights” Sesshomaru whispered in her ear making a shiver run up and back down Kagome’s spine.
“Thanks for reminding me” Kagome looked down and gulped. She clung tighter to his hakama and pressed herself up against his chest afraid that he would let her go.
“You rather enjoy clinging to me do you not Kagome?” Sesshomaru leaned down and whispered in her ear in a husky voice. Kagome felt the tingling sensation of a shiver run over her arms and down her body until she felt the feeling of butterflies in her stomach that turned into a tightening in her lower regions at his mere words.
“Don’t do that” Kagome choked out as she still felt the effects of his husky whispered words.
“You are aroused and you wish that I stop” Sesshomaru whispered huskily in her other ear. He was able to smell the sweet intoxicating scent of her arousal and feel goose bumps on her arms. Taking in a deep breath he was overwhelmed by her scent and pulled back enough to lock eyes with her. After studying her beautiful eyes he lowered his gaze until it was resting on her rosy pink lips that looked really tempting to him at this moment. Without really thinking what he was doing Sesshomaru closed the distance between them until his lips were firmly pressed against hers. His kiss became urgent with held back passion but as he continued kissing her he gently pressed against her lips in a light caressing way that he couldn’t get enough of.
Kagome was momentarily shocked when his lips connected with hers in a demanding kiss. After the shock had passed she gladly allowed him to explore her mouth with his insistent lips. The first time she had been kissed by him she thought his lips would be cold like he normally acted but she was a little surprised that they were actually warm. She gasped when his tongue invaded her mouth but moaned when he ran his tongue along the length of hers making her moan once again. Not wishing to end the kiss but needing to breathe she reluctantly had to pull back for if she didn’t then she would surely faint for lack of air.
After she had regained her breath, “Wow” was all she could manage to whisper at the moment for it still felt as if his lips were still molded against hers.
“Hai, wow” Sesshomaru said using the word she had though he was not familiar with this particular word.
Kagome giggled at how the word had rolled from his tongue like he was testing it out. She nearly jumped out of Sesshomaru’s arms when she heard, “Do you two plan on devouring each other like that all day,” came a slightly agitated voice with a hint of amusement mixed in. Looking towards where the voice was coming from Kagome’s breathe caught in her throat, as she looked upon Inuyasha who was lazily lounging in a nearby tree with a smirk on his face.
“When did you find us otouto?” Sesshomaru asked though he didn’t want to admit that he didn’t know that Inuyasha had been watching them.
“Geez Sesshomaru and I thought you would protect Kagome, some demon could have come right up and taken her from you without you even noticing. I’ve been watching over the two of you since you feel asleep last night” Inuyasha finished as he looked back and forth between his older brother and Kagome.
“You mean that you weren’t protecting me?” Kagome turned her eyes on Sesshomaru thinking of what could have possibly have gone wrong with both of them sleeping like infants.
“You have my apologizes Kagome but it seems you are too much of a distraction which in turn affects my sense of security” Sesshomaru said looking sincerely down at Kagome.
“Yeaaah right” Kagome crossed her arms under her breasts and glared up at Sesshomaru with her lips pursed.
“Angry again are we? Perhaps I should make you feel aroused again” he whispered seductively in her ear.
“Oh no, not this time” Kagome tried getting up from his lap since she had forgetten her obvious fear of heights.
“And where do you think you’re going koi?” Sesshomaru asked as he grasped Kagome around the waist and pulled her back down in his lap.
“Well if you must know…I need to get my bag and take a bath” Kagome tried once again to get away but Sesshomaru's grip on her waist stopped her from doing so instead he pressed her up against him further.
“Very well, you do reek” Sesshomaru teased knowing that would tick her off so maybe he could steal another kiss.
“What! I do NOT reek!” Kagome yelled not knowing that she would hurt their sensitive ears.
Sesshomaru and Inuyasha both winced from Kagome yelling but almost instantly their ears stopped ringing.
“Did you have to do that Kagome?” Inuyasha asked as he brought his hands down from his ears atop his head.“Sorry” Kagome said though she was still angry with Sesshomaru for saying that she stunk.
“Iie I am sorry Kagome, for you do not reek in a bad way” Sesshomaru said.
“Well…Okay” a light pink blush appeared on her cheeks.
“Well don’t just sit there all day, you’re wasting time” Inuyasha said as jumping onto the branch where they were both sitting.
“Hai, I need to return to my castle as soon as I am able” Sesshomaru stood up with Kagome in his arms and jumped down to the ground. He kept his hold on Kagome though.
“You can let me down now” Kagome said as she looked up at Sesshomaru with her most innocent eyes.
“Iie” Sesshomaru said swiftly before walking on into the forest where her bag would be.
“Sessho” Kagome whined then put on her most adorable puppy face. Looking down Sesshomaru couldn’t really ignore her puppy face that Rin always used on him when she wanted something that she knew he wouldn’t be too happy with, though it always worked. He wondered if both the females had come up with the idea of a puppy face since they knew he couldn’t resist it. Sighing in defeat Sesshomaru set Kagome down until her feet touched the ground though he kept his hands encircled around her waist.
“Uhh…are you gonna let me go?” Kagome asked innocently feeling his hands caressing her stomach as an identical blush appeared on both cheeks.
“Very well” he removed his hands from around Kagome and sighed once again in exasperation as he walked in front of Kagome to lead the way back to her camp site.“Hey Sessho are you mad at me?” Kagome asked as running up and walking beside the tall demon lord.
“Iie, I could never be mad at you utsukusii” Sesshomaru said as glancing down at Kagome. He chuckled when the blood rushed to her cheeks painting them a rosy red as she turned her head looking in the other direction. After a few moments of silence with Inuyasha trailing behind them Kagome dared to look up at Sesshomaru. She wasn’t too surprised that he was still watching her.
“Why did you call me beautiful?” Kagome asked though she had asked once before she needed to hear it again.
“Because you are utsukusii, the most beautiful being I have ever laid eyes upon” Sesshomaru said as he kept his gaze on Kagome though he was worried as Kagome’s expression turned from embarrassed to unsure.
“I don’t think so, you’re just trying to make me feel good” she said more to herself than anyone.
“Why do you think this?”
“Inuyasha had told me numerous times that I am ugly and weak,” Kagome said forgetting that Inuyasha was walking behind them and could hear her.
Inuyasha easily overheard their conservation and was shocked that Kagome would remember those times when he called her that. His ears drooped, plastered to his head in sadness and regret for saying those things when he didn’t really mean them.
“Inuyasha was a fool” Sesshomaru stated as looking back over his shoulder to Inuyasha who in turn lowered his head until it touched his chest.
“He was right” Kagome whispered where Sesshomaru had to strain to hear her clearly. Sesshomaru in a blink of an eye took Kagome into his arms bridal style and shooting a glance back at Inuyasha took Kagome to a secluded spot where they would be alone.
