Shadowcat1028 - When he says he can't catch and kill at the same time, he means that his father may be able to do that, but Sesshoumaru isn't perfect like him and can't…yet.

Actions Speak Louder Than Words

Chapter 6- Preparations

My idiot of a half-brother had just yelled and screamed demanding to see his girlfriend.

I corrected him before throwing back out of the house, telling him to come back when he was able to act his age, not the radius of his eyeball.

I had then gone back to my beauty, finding her fast asleep sprawled out in my bed. I smiled.

My beauty in my bed.

I eased myself underneath the covers, and then pulled Kagome to me. She curled up to me in her sleep, one hand tucked in between my side and her chest, the other hand on my chest. She smiled in her sleep and sighed contentedly.

I feel asleep and woke up like that.

I glanced at the clock. 9 a.m. Surprised, I wondered if the clock was wrong. I usually never slept past 6. I was an early riser and I often went to bed late, that is, when I actually slept. Demons don't need much sleep, and I wasn't an exception.

I slipped out bed, writing Kagome a note before dressing in the bathroom attached to my room. I slipped on black slacks and dress shirt, before heading out to run my errands.

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

I opened my eyes to a white ceiling. I frowned. Had we painted? I could have sworn my ceiling was blue yesterday…

I looked at the bed I was laying on, then at the room I was in. Either we had remodeled and knocked out a few walls to create this room or I wasn't at home. I guessed the latter.

Sitting up, I heard a crinkling noise beside me and looked down. A piece of paper was underneath my right hand. Lifting up the paper, I smiled as I read the note from Sesshoumaru.

Dear Kagome,

I wish I could have been the first thing your beautiful blue eyes saw upon opening. Unfortunately, a few things need to be done before we attend the All Hallows Eve party this evening. I will be back soon. Should you desire anything, seek out Harmien, and she will help you with everything.

Sincerely,

Sesshoumaru

P.S. - I took the liberty of acquiring you an outfit for today. We are not going to be attending school today, so do not worry about what you peers would think.

The last part made me swallow and cast my eyes about the room for said outfit. I found it hanging off of a hook by the bathroom door. Getting out of the comfortable bed, I padded softly over to it, my small feet making hardly any noise pollution.

I gasped when she saw what it was. A white silk dress, the material thin and almost see-through. Picking it up, I blushed when I saw the white lace bra and panty set underneath.

Slipping into both, I admired my reflection in a full-length mirror in the bathroom. I noticed a small kit of toiletries on the counter, clearly labeled `For Kagome'. I smiled.

He was thoughtful. I would have never guessed.

I made my way out of the room, and headed down the first staircase I came across. I did not recognize the room I was in, but soon enough a brash voice sounded behind me before I could attempt to go anywhere else.

“So, you're sleeping with my brother now, are you?”

I spun around quickly, and backed up as Inuyasha paced quickly towards me. “No!” I responded heatedly. “We-we're just-" I paused. What WERE we doing? We weren't dating, and we were obviously more then friends…

“Just what? Fucking?”

“Inuyasha! How could you say such a thing?” I reprimanded him. He glared.

“Because I can smell his scent all over you! Because you are suddenly in his room the same day we broke up! AND! BECAUSE YOU'VE ALWAYS HAD A CRUSH ON HIM!” he yelled.

“Little brother, you must learn to keep your voice down in the early hours of the morn. If you were to awake our father, you know the consequences that would befall you. Also, it is dishonorable to yell at a lady. Sullen child, get out of my sight.”

Inuyasha looked as though he was about to protest, but he fled when Sesshoumaru's hand glowed green. I swallowed.

“I am sorry you had to endure my brothers' presence, utsukushi. However, you shall not have to deal with him from now on, if I can help it. Are you hungry? You look slightly lost.”

I nodded, and smiled sheepishly. “This house is huge!”

He smirked for a moment and nodded. “Come. The kitchen is this way.”

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

I had just returned from running my errands when I had smelt Kagome's nervousness. Racing up several stairs, I came to the top of a staircase and arrived just in time to hear something that made my eyes widen and my heart rate speed up.

“Because I can smell his scent all over you! Because you are suddenly in his room the same day we broke up! AND! BECAUSE YOU'VE ALWAYS HAD A CRUSH ON HIM!” Inuyasha yelled.

I said after making my presence known. I glanced at Kagome, and upon realizing Inuyasha had no intent on leaving, called poisoned into my fingertips. He fled.

“I am sorry you had to endure my brothers' presence, utsukushi. However, you shall not have to deal with him from now on, if I can help it. Are you hungry? You look slightly lost.”

I told my princess. She nodded and smiled sheepishly. “This house is huge!” she exclaimed, and I smirked for a moment and nodded.

“Come. The kitchen is this way.” I instructed and led her to said room.

We had an excellent brunch prepared by Harmien, and then I excused myself for a moment while Harmien cleared the table. I prepared our dessert and headed back into the dining room.

“Am I to take it for granted that you enjoy strawberries and whipping cream?” I inquired.

She nodded with an eager smile on her face. I set the bowl on the table just out of her reach, and picked one up. I couldn't suppress the smile at her cute pouting expression as I took a bite.

She narrowed her lovely blue eyes at me. I smirked and offered her the strawberry. She looked mildly shocked before tentively taking a bite. She smiled at the flavor.

There was a little bit of whipped cream on her adorable button nose.

I leaned down…

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

My eyes flew open when I felt his hot tongue on the tip of my nose. He smirked seductively and explained in a voice like liquid velvet.

“You had whipping cream upon your nose.”

I nodded, still slightly entranced. He merely continued feeding me strawberries, but I hardly noticed. I only noticed when he would lick the whipped cream off of my nose, or, in one case, my lips.

He finally called me to the present with a few instructions about tonight.

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

“Your dress is already in my room. You may get ready whenever you wish, taking as long as you require. We leave at 7 o'clock. A few things you need to know about the ball, however.”

I waited for her to nod before continuing.

“There are going to be demons, unmasked, roaming around. I myself will be unmasked. It would make life easier for both of us if you refrain from making any physical contact with other males. My demon senses will be already in over-drive, and smelling other males upon the female I am courting will not please my feral instincts.”

I waited for her to absorb all of this with baited breath. I had said I was courting her because, in demon terms, that was what I was doing. In human terms, we were dating. We had technically only dated once, yesterday, though I was hoping that would change and I still wished her to be mine.

Forever.

Her eyes suddenly snapped up to mine. “S-so…I-I'm your, I mean, if y-you…”

I silenced her with a kiss. “You are mine, Kagome. Unless you have any disagreements?” I asked the last part almost anxiously. I was still worried she would not approve of my being full-demon.

My angel responded by kissing my concealed markings sweetly. I captured her lips in a breath-taking kiss.

“By the way.” I whispered softly. “You may want to call Sango. Let her know that I do not appreciate hate mail, voice or otherwise, when I am merely trying to help the female I am courting get better.”

Kagome giggled. “I will.”

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

“For Kami-Sama's sake Sango if it gets any more perfect people will start to wonder!” I snapped, exasperated. Sango had spent the better part of three hours trying to get make-up and hairstyles that matched the perfect costume.

The dark blue material was almost black, with little white sparkles all over it, making it look like the night sky. The material was in the shape of a kimono, with a silver obi to hold it closed, and a little belt-purse for my things.

My hair was pinned up near the crown of my head; a few loose strands curled and left floating around my face. I had on light make-up, and Sango had applied it perfectly.

“So, what did he call you again?” Sango asked slyly. I blushed.

“The female he is courting. I think in human terms that's `girlfriend'.”

“But he never dates anyone!” Sango protested. I rolled my eyes.

“Sango, we've have this discussion about six times already. Would you let me have a good time tonight instead of worrying if I'm dating him or not? He asked me to go, after all.”

“Oh fine. There, I'm done. Go and meet Sessy-baby and don't forget to tell me all the details tomorrow. And I mean everything.”

“Sango!” I chided, blushing. Sessy-baby was what she had nicknamed Sesshoumaru when she found out I liked him. I also did not appreciate her little insinuation. I told her as much with a deathly glare.

“Oh come on, Kagome! He's a kami-sama for Kami-Sama's sake!” she giggled at her own words. I retrieved my belt-purse and threw the giggling girl from the room.

“You almost forgot your shoes!” Sango exclaimed, and rushed back into the room. She grabbed the white socks and sandals I was to wear underneath the kimono.

Slipping them on, we made our way to the stairs by the front entrance. She went ahead to scout, and I almost collapsed in frustration when she came back up as though the hounds of hell were on her heels and made a whispered announcement.

“He's waiting for you at the bottom of the stairs.”

Ok, Kagome, you can do this. You just have to gracefully walk down a set of stairs and not make an entire ass out of yourself.

I gave Sango a parting hug and descended the stairs.

VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV

My beauty was coming down the stairs. I waited until she was half-way down before I turned around,

And got the breath knocked out of me.

She was stunning.

The blue material made her eyes stand out perfectly. The kimono hugged her just right, and made her look like a queen. She had an unsure look in her eyes, and was trying to refrain from chewing her lower lip, but still held an other-worldly beauty.

And she was mine.

I offered my white-silk clad arm to her, my costume mainly composed of white silk. My hakama's were white, and so was my haori, though it had splashes of red on it as well. My obi was yellow and navy and I had a pelt from my father draped over my right shoulder.

She smiled at me and took my arm without hesitation. My markings were showing, and I was careful not to harm her with my claws. My angel must have been able to sense my anxiety, for she slid her hand down my arm until she could grasp my hand with hers. She slid her fingers in between mine, and gave me a perfect smile.

My darling.
