Chapter 2 : Night Before Opening Part 2
It was late into night, it could have been past midnight or close to it Kagome was not sure. The clock that sat on her dresser blinked red zero indicating the power had gone out and then returned. Kagome sighed her right arm bent with her hand laying just above her head. She was on her bed after taking a long nap. She sat up sliding her legs off the bed her feet touching plush purple carpet. She let her toes run through the carpets thread as she stared at the wall.
Inuyasha had not shown up to bother her, by now the spell would have long ended allowing him to rise again. She figured he'd come bursting in like he usually did, yelling and cursing her for 'sitting' him. Him not showing left an uneasy feeling inside, things seemed to be changing. Or was it just her that was changing. At first things had berm great between them, she had felt that he really cared for her but...the last few destinations over the past year seemed to be different.
Kagome had noticed that Inuyasha seemed to be disappearing from his trailer in the middle of the night at random times. The others however, didn't notice anything weird other than his usual weirdness and erratic behavior. But there were times when Kouga their Wolf Master had flirted with her and Inuyasha didn't react other than a few threats that started sounding forced. Kagome shook her head, she was being ridiculous Inuyasha making her loose her temper that day was messing with her head.
She chuckled though when she remembered Kaze and Blaze's little antics earlier that night. Well Inuyasha had asked for it, Sesshoumaru was being a gentleman while Inuyasha came in acting like a jerk. She paused, when Inuyasha had placed his arm around her she had pulled away. She did it just to be respectful in front if Sesshoumaru right, because Inuyasha was being a jerk...she frowned again before falling back against the bed with a groan.
"What am I thinking?! I love Inuyasha and he loved me! I gotta get these doubts out of my head!" She rosé from the bed and headed to her closet. "I'll go see Sango, she's always up this late."
She kept her purple skirt with the gold coins on but changed to a white tank top. It was a warm night plus the spell grids also kept the temperature from dropping too much. She slipped on a pair of sandals and exited the trailer.
** Elsewhere **
Sesshoumaru was making his final rounds, he had abandoned his jacket, cane and top hat at his trailer leaving him dressed in just his vest, shirt, and the black pants. The wind blew past him through his hair as his hearing picked up sounds coming from the farthest trailer, he started to walk towards it but stopped when the scent of cherry blossoms and waterfalls caught his attention. He turned following the scent coming up Kagome who was walking alone. He was surprised she was out so late.
"Kagome?" Sesshoumaru called to her watching as she jumped. She turned a quizzical look on her face. "Why are you out so late and walking alone?"
"Oh, Sesshoumaru-sama?" She turned to him and smiled softly lifting one hand to keep her hair from blowing in her face, "I couldn't sleep after my long nap so I decided to go visit Sango, she's always awake at this hour."
Sesshoumaru nodded and offered an arm, "then allow me to escort you to her trailer, it's not safe to wander this late even with the spell grids."
Kagome paused thinking about Inuyasha before smiling and taking his arm, "thank you, I'd appreciate it."
Sesshoumaru felt warmth spread through him when her arm interwines with his but kept it from showing. She already belonged to Inuyasha though the half-breed was always leaving her alone. "Where is Inuyasha? I would think that he would not let you wander around alone?"
Kagome sighed and shrugged her shoulders, "he's probably off sulking somewhere after the 'sits' I gave him. It's always the same with him, he comes back when he wants."
Sesshoumaru felt anger rise, if it was him he would not leave her alone or let her suffer like this. He mentally growled before he spoke again, "you do not deserve to be treated that way."
Kagome blinked and looked at him her emerald eyes filled with confusion she was about to open her mouth to ask something when they reached their destination and Sango threw open the door surprised, "Kagome?! Sesshoumaru-sama?!"
Sesshoumaru took it as his cue to leave, he already said too much. He unhooked his arm from Kagome's arm before bowing, "this is where I take my leave. I will see you at our Opening."
Before Kagome could blink Sesshoumaru had disappeared into the shadows, Sango stepped down from the trailer, "Kagome? What's Up? Come inside and we will talk."
Twenty minutes later Kagome sat with her legs curled to the side on Sango's couch holding a cup of Sango's special Night Tea. She had just finished telling Sango everything that happened that day."
"Hahaha! I wish I could have seen that! Oh the look that must have been on Inuyasha's face!" Sango had fallen off the couch a couple times from laughing so hard. She had come close to spilling her own tea but caught it before it could tip.
Kagome laughed, "Kaze and Blaze looked so pleased with themselves! Like the cat that ate the canary!"
Sango laughed again setting her cup down, "I bet, you know those two don't like anyone but you too much to begin with but they've especially disliked Inuyasha. Maybe it's a cat vs dog thing."
Kagome frowned placing a finger to her lips, "hmm but they let Sesshoumaru-sama near and they barely so much as growl at him nowadays."
Sango blinked before sighing leaning her chin on her hand, "oh yeah, well there goes my theory. By the way---" she turned a hard stare on Kagome as a smirked crossed her lips, "what was that with Sesshoumaru-sama outside?"
Kagome sat up quickly her face turning red as she held up a hand shaking her head, "we ran into each other on my way here, he offered to escort me here out of safety. Nothing happened I swear! There's nothing between us!"
Sango's smirk disappeared as she grumbled, "it sure looked like you were happy and you look like a good couple." She sat back crossing her arms, there's was more then what her friend was telling. But she needed more time to see if her thoughts were true."
Kagome gasped, "Sango?! Inuyasha is my boyfriend and Sesshoumaru-sama is his brother." Kagome looked down at her now empty cup as her eyes lowered, "besides Sesshoumaru-sama would never date a human much less mate one."
Sango blinked surprised before smirking and leaning into her friend her face inches from Kagome's , "sooooo you doooo like him , even a little bit hmmm be honest!"
Kagome choked leaning back into the couch wanting it to swallow her up as her face turned red, "well...I...maybe...uh...a..little bit...what girl wouldn't..."
Sango smiled as she studied her friend closely, maybe her and Miroku did have a chance at helping her best friend end up with someone better than Inuyasha. Inuyasha was also screwing up and Sango was tired of seeing her get hurt. She sat back now happy at the thought before glancing at the clock, "oh no it's past 2:00 and we have to be up and get things ready by noon. It's too late to leave you can take my bed and I'll take Kohaku's he's out tonight."
Kagome nodded in agreement as both women got up to head to bed. Kagome slipped into Sango's room after changing into a pair if spare pjs she kept there and laid down curling up. Sango's question about Sesshoumaru got her thinking about him but...she was dating Inuyasha...it'd be cheating if she started thinking of another guy or at least close to it...right? She sighed Inuyasha did seem to be trying...once in a while...she groaned burying her face in the pillow.
