The Feelings' Mutual
Kagome’s heartbeat stopped and her breath caught in her throat by the mere word that had been spoken by the demon lord sitting next to her. ‘He…he l-loves me, I can’t believe it, what do I say to him, I don’t know what to do’ Kagome thought as she frantically searched for something to say. She realized she had been holding her breathe and let it out in a whoosh as her cheeks tinted pink because she knew that she must look comical. Gaining the courage to look to the demon lord she turned her head to find that he was still staring at her with a serious impassive expression on his face.
Gulping she thought it best if she just tell him and get it over with. “L-lord S-Sess-homaru?”
“Hai Lady Kagome?”
“I…I love y-you too” Kagome clasped her hands in her lap until her knuckles turned white as her gaze rested on them.
Sesshomaru too had been holding his breathe until Kagome said that she loved him. His heart practically leaped in his chest that this amazing tennyo loved him. He was afraid that she would love Inuyasha and stay with him, yet he wasn’t sure if she loved him enough to spend the rest of her life with him. Being a demon he would be looked down on by the other lords for mating a ningen miko but he didn’t care.
A down side to mating Kagome would be that she would perish in a few short years. Since demons lived for centuries he would more than likely take his own life so he could follow her into the afterlife or spend the rest of his days in misery. There had to be some way that she could acquire the life span of a demon like himself, if only he could find how. Pushing those thoughts aside he looked to Kagome who was still gazing at him with waves of nervousness and anxiety radiating off of her.
He turned around until he was facing Kagome and clasped her small hands in his large ones. Bringing them up to his lips he placed small kisses along her knuckles until he had kissed each one, he let go of one of her hands and brought his hand under her chin raising her face up to meet his. Seeing love shining in her almost black eyes Sesshomaru closed the distance between their lips, feeling a shock run through his veins at the contact.
His lips lightly pressed against hers in a sweet passionate kiss that left both lovers wishing for more. Deepening the kiss Sesshomaru thrust his tongue into her sweet mouth exploring her caverns that tasted as if he had died and gone to heaven. Making a deep-contented growl deep in his throat, almost like a purr which helped calm Kagome’s nerves as she pushed herself closer to his body needing more. He could feel her small hands tangling in his hair and rubbing his scalp making him moan against her lips at the sensations he never knew existed in his being. Like wise he brought one of his hands up to her raven hair that had an ethereal blue glow outlining it in the morning rays of light penetrating the forest canopy. He applied gentle pressure on her head careful not to hurt her, pressing their lips closer together and with his other hand pulled her waist closer to himself if it were possible. Both lovers didn’t even notice that they were now both knelling on their knees and didn’t even hear the jealous growl on the edge of the forest watching their passionate moment.
Sesshomaru’s youkai blood yelled for him to claim her now, as his mate but he would do no such thing. He wanted to make sure Kagome really wanted him and no other and if she did he didn’t want to make her uncomfortable or frighten her away. His hand that had rested on her waist slowly slid up her abdomen and under her sailor top shirt until his hands felt the smooth silkiness of her creamy skin.
‘So soft yet muscular’ he thought to himself as he felt the light protruding of her muscles. From all the traveling she had been doing for over three years now she must have gotten in good shape from traveling over all of Japan. Still being wary, not wanting her to flee he just caressed her skin with his fingers being careful not to scrape his deadly claws across her flawless skin.
Kagome could not believe what was happening, she felt as if time had stopped and everything froze. When his lips first touched hers a fire ignited in her veins and traveled lower until it reached her stomach as it intertwined making a tingling sensation of pleasure. When his hands touched her skin she was glad at the contact but also wanted to touch his skin, which she knew must be flawless since he was a demon and didn’t scar. Hesitantly she brought her other hand resting on his shoulder and traveled down until she could feel the tie that held his hakama together. With her slightly shaking hand she was able to undo the loose knot, as it went unnoticed to the ground she traced the opening to his hakama with her index finger. Slowly she slid her hand inside his hakama and moaned against Sesshomaru’s mouth when she felt his muscles and skin pressing against her hand.
‘No wonder he’s so strong’ she thought to herself as she ran her hands over his chest with light touches. The blood rushed to her cheeks at the thought of what he would look like on the rest of his body, if he would look just as sexy.
‘Of course he would girl what are you thinking, mind out of the gutter,’ suddenly realizing that she was out of breathe she pushed on his chest until she was able to exhale the much needed air. As regaining her breathe she looked to Sesshomaru who she was surprised to find was panting like a dog would when he got too hot. An image popped into her head of Sesshomaru in his dog form panting because he saw a hot female dog. She tried restraining the giggle that issued forth from her mouth but couldn’t as she burst out in fits of giggles. Sesshomaru looked at her quizzically wondering what was so funny.
“You find this Sesshomaru amusing?” Sesshomaru playfully growled with amusement shining in his eyes as he brought his face closer to hers until their noses were an inch apart.
“I-iie” Kagome managed to choke out as she was still giggling too much to say anything else.
“Then you thought when I said that I loved you was unintentional?” he asked the amusement gone from his eyes.
Kagome’s giggles died instantly on her tongue as his words sunk in. Looking into his eyes it did not seem that he was joking with her for all she could see in the depths was sadness and pain. “Iie Sesshomaru I believe you with all my heart that you love me” she brought his hand into her lap tracing light patterns on it in a soothing gesture hoping that he wasn’t mad at her.
After thinking that she suffered long enough Sesshomaru let his mask drop showing that he was highly amused as his lips turned up into a sinister grin. Clearing his throat he got Kagome’s attention as she looked up at him. He watched as first uncertainty then confusion, worriedness, sadness, and finally anger crossed her face.
“Why you arrogant, annoying dog, that wasn’t funny!” she yelled as her eyes narrowed to thin slits.
“At least you stopped your annoying amusement of me” he laughed as he felt her aura grow more menacing.
“Why you, I ought to…I ought to purify you to the end of the earth” she held up her hands as if she really would do it.
“Then at least you will be by my side utsukusii.”
Kagome’s slightly angry red face turned to an embarrassing blush that spread across her chest and down her neck at being called beautiful. Sure the first two times he called her that she didn’t pay much attention to it but after being called ugly by Inuyasha all the time it was flattering. Regaining her composure she looked up at Sesshomaru who had gotten up while she was blushing and now held out his hand to help her up.
Sighing in playful annoyance she let Sesshomaru take her hand and pull her up. But what she didn’t count on was how fast he would pull her up, she slammed into his chest and was instantly kissed by Sesshomaru once again though it did not last as long as the last one.
“Okay, okay you win” she playfully pushed against his chest as he broke the kiss.
“I always do” he smirked.
“Not always mister Fluffiness” she plastered her own smirk on her face.
“Fluffiness?” he asked oddly confused.
“Yeah, when I first saw you in your dog form I thought you looked like a big fluffy dog…well you are a dog” Kagome grasped Sesshomaru’s hand in her own. “You don’t mind if I call you Fluffy.”
“I would rather prefer that you do not but if it pleases you then you may as long as we are not around others” he reluctantly agreed seeing the beginnings of a puppy face.
“Okay…umm we should be getting back to the castle.”
“Were you not leaving for my castle?” he asked as starting back towards where they left Inuyasha with Kagome’s hand still grasped in his own.
“I was…but you rescued me from Kagura and you said that you love me so I don’t want to leave you all alone” she playfully teased but with a seriousness in her voice.
“I would of come after you.”
“I know.”
“Then why did you want to leave in the first place?”
“I didn’t want anyone to get hurt because of me.”
“Who did you not want getting hurt?” he asked not quite understanding what she was talking about.
“You and Inuyasha, I know that you both loved me but I couldn’t chose between the two of you knowing it would hurt one or the other.”
“It does not matter what Inuyasha or I want, it is you who should decide who you want to love.”
“…”
“Whom do you love more?” he asked quietly not sure if he wanted to hear her response.
“Inuyasha has broke my heart numerous times…I love him still…but only as a friend or brother. I know that if I did stay with Inuyasha then the same thing would happen again, my heart would be shattered and I would have to pick up all the pieces and make it whole again.”
“You would be willing to spend your life with me?” Sesshomaru’s heart had slowly sped up its pace hoping that she would say yes but if she didn’t then he would honor her choice.
“I don’t know yet Sessho-kun, I might not live too long…I still have to collect the Jewel shards but Naraku holds the other half…when we battle him then I might not make it out alive.”
“You can and you will, for I will be by your side the entire time you leave my estate” he said leaving no room for argument.
“Arigatou Sesshomaru, that really means a lot to me” Kagome squeezed his hand in affection.
“Douitashimashite Kagome” Sesshomaru lifted Kagome up into his arms bridal style and formed his youkai cloud that sparkled with a pink dust that carried them up into the night like ethereal beings. Unknown to the two, two others were watching them. The silver haired half demon watched them with a deepening sadness and regret while the black haired demon watched them with disgust from a white mirror.
Well another chapter finished though I would of liked to of made it longer but I was getting so many requests that I just got this much done. If you guys would allow it then I would write much longer chapters but it would take me longer to get them up on the web.
Also I am willing to help anyone else with his or her story(s) or I would read them if you wish.
Thanks for the reviews I can’t believe that I have gotten so many.
One person that I would especially like to thank is ivecriedbecauseofyou.
