Chapter 3 : Opening Day
“Hey Kagome! Come on time to wake up!” Kagome opened her eyes tiredly at the sound of her best friend or soon to be dead best friend for waking her up. She groggily sat up yawning, “hmm what time is it?”
Sango was sitting on the edge of the bed in a now in a black and blue outfit made out of the same material as her fighting gi only this outfit cut off just below the breast and with black pants that blue diamonds at the thighs. Her dark hair was tied up and she looked like she was awake.
Sango laughed, “6:00am.” Sango looked her over, “dang, what time did you get to sleep last night?”
Kagome flinched at the word ‘6:00am’ now she seriously was going to kill her best friend. She growled, “I don’t, sometime past 3 or something.” She rubbed her eyes yawning again, it was Sango’s fault too. After Sango’s comments about Sesshoumaru, Kagome had found that she couldn’t stop thinking about him. She kept seeing him in her mind and the feel of his arm with hers, her mind even going as to far as to wonder what it would feel like to be kissed by him.
Sango raised an eyebrow seeing Kagome’s face turn red as a dazed expression filled her eyes, she smirked, “looks like someone was visioning someone, maybe a certain silver haired male with gorgeous amber eyes.”
“hmm drop –dead gorgeous eyes,” Kagome lazily replied before her tired brain realized it had escaped her mouth. Her eyes widened and she gasped grabbing a pillow and hitting Sango with it, “Sango!!”
Sango laughed grabbing the pillow from her as Kagome’s hair fell to hid her face, “so you were thinking about him.” Kagome growled making Sango laugh even harder, but when the laughing stopped Kagome peeked through her hair at Sango. Sango’s face had turned serious and her eyes soft , “you know Kagome, during out last trips I know you kept asking Miroku and me if we noticed anything different about Inuyasha. Miroku and the others haven’t notice anything and truthfully I hadn’t either…not till you started confining in me. I believed you Kagome and after our last trop and now here, I too have noticed that Inuyasha’s been different”
Kagome listened to her, she had a feeling that Sango knew something that even she didn’t know, “Sango what are you saying?”
Sango sighed, she had indeed learned something, but she wanted to try save Kagome from the pain, and if Kagome ended up with Sesshoumaru to do that than she was all for it.
“I’m saying that Sesshoumaru would treat you a whole of a lot better than Inuyasha ever did or will, and I think he likes you too Kagome,” Sango pointed out, “I’ve seen the look in your eyes when you think no one’s watching and on rare occasions I’ve even swear on my life that I’ve seen him look at you the same way.”
Sango stood stretching, “just try thinking about, you might surprise yourself with what you discover.” She walked over to the side of the room and picked up a bag setting it on the bed, “Lady Kaede made this for you, it’s for our grand opening. I’ll see you later, I’ve got to go get the animals ready.”
*~*~* One Hour Later *~*~*
Kagome was walking through the paths of the tents, she was dressed in the outfit that Lady Kaede had made. She was surprised when she found it to be an emerald tube-top with a sheer purple see-through sleeves made out of what felt like lace but softer. The skirt was a beautiful shade of dark purple with silver coins that held blue crescent moons sewn in the edges. With it was a pair of special sandals with emerald, and purple beads weaved in and blue crescents made out of lapis lazil stone. The wraps went half way to her knees where they could be tied and held together with emerald stones.
She loved the outfit but seeing the crescents on the skirt made her wonder if even Lady Kaede knew something that even she hadn’t figured out yet. She looked up when she realized she had wondered to the far end of the site. She blinked what the heck had brought her here, the only thing back here was a couple of the storage trailers and Kikyo’s trailer. She turned to head back towards the main tents when she heard the door open and voices drift towards, one was Kikyo’s and the other…sounded lik… She jumped behind the closest storage trailer, peeking out she watched as Kikyo’s form came into view, arms were wrapped around.
“Hmmm are you going to see me again tonight?” Kikyo purred as the owner of the arms came into view. “To celebrate the opening.”
Kagome gasped in shock and horror, she felt her heart shatter at the site of Kikyo being held by none other than Inuyasha. Her hands gripped the trailer as her body began to shake, her eyes closing as her head lowering tears starting to form in her eyes.
Inuyasha kissed Kikyo’s neck nipping at the spot between her shoulder and neck, “if I don’t spend a little time with the wench she’ll start suspecting something.”
Kikyo pouted, the look making her look like a fish, “Inuyasha you need to dump that stupid little girl and stay with your real woman. After all,” Kikyo smirked cruelly as her hands slipped under Inuyasha’s clothes, “that’s the real reason you came to me. Unless…” Kikyo stepped back crossing her arms, “you still love the girl.”
Inuyasha quickly grabbed Kikyo again, “you know that’s know true Kikyo. I don’t love that freaking wench, I never did….I only dated her to that stupid-ass Sesshoumaru jealous, I knew he liked and I wanted to make him suffer.”
Kagome’s head snapped up swiftly the pain and sorrow that had filled her turning to full-blown rage as her an fire seethed through her veins. ‘HE ONLY USED ME?!?! HE NEVER LOVED ME EVEN AT THE BEGINNING?!?! HE’S LIED TO ME THIS ENTIRE TIME?!?!?!?!” She started to step out of her hiding place but then a snarl crossed her lips as she stepped back, ‘…no…a ‘sitting’ will be too kind….I want him to suffer just as much…no….MORE !’ She turned swiftly disappearing into the maze of tents.
Inuyasha looked up swiftly when the wind blew in his direction, he turned towards the storage trailers, Kikyo tilted her head, “what’s wrong?”
Inuyasha stood staring at the storage trailers, ears twitching, but he didn’t hear anything. After a few minutes he shook his head, “thought I heard something…must have been an animal or something.” He kissed Kikyo deeply one more time before turning and heading towards the tents.
~*~*~*~*~
Sesshoumaru entered the animal tent carrying a silver-tray, he spotted Sango feeding the other animals. Sango looked up, “oh Sesshoumaru-sama, I didn’t expect to see you here this early.” She walked over to him.
Sesshoumaru looked at the tray he was carrying, he wasn’t expecting anyone to be here yet, he quickly thought up something, “this arrived as a gift today, it seems our dear Kaze and Blaze have some fans from our recent trips.”
Sango blinked and took the tray opening, gasping she saw two extra-large pieces of rare steak, the pieces were think with meal, she smirked as she eyed him, “looks like their ‘fans’ have quite a bit of money for such juicy and think steaks.”
Sesshoumaru felt his eyebrow twitch but said nothing as he kept up his cool stoic face without revealing anything, after a moment Sango turned from him calling to the back, “Kaze! Blaze!” Sango blinked when there came no growls or screams from the crew. “Kaze! Blaze! Breakfast!”
A few minutes passed and still no tigers, Sango frowned, “that’s weird…I wonder where they wandered off too?”
Sesshoumaru turned heading towards the entrance, “I will look for them.”
Sango blinked turning to him, “Oh no I can go lo---“ She was cut off as Sesshoumaru was already gone by the time she turned around. “…that’s so creepy..” She sighed shaking her hand and turning back to her work.
~*~*~*~*~
Sesshoumaru followed the scents of the large felines, but instead of Kagome’s trailer he found himself in the training tent. And there sitting on a bale of hay was Kagome, Kaze and Blaze laying on either side of her there heads on her lap. She was petting the two but her eyes were closed, he looked her over. The outfit she was wearing showed off every curve and bend but in a way that made her look even more breathtaking then the outfit she normally wore. He caught sight of the many different blue crescents that decorate the outfit and had to repress a snarl that was threatening to escape. The crescents were the sign of the Taisho family and the fact that Kagome was wearing them for Inuyasha made his blood boil.
He turned to leave before he lost control when the scent of tears reached his nose, he turned swiftly, ‘she had been crying?’
Kaze and Blaze lifted their heads when Sesshoumaru approached, rumbling growls came from their chests as they nudged Kagome’s hands. She opened her eyes as her head lifted, only to meet the eyes of Sesshoumaru.
Sesshoumaru felt shock fill him as he looked back into Kagome’s eyes, the emerald depths that had once been cheerful and bright were now dark and burned with hate and anger. He stepped forward cautiously, “Kagome? What happened? What’s wrong?”
Kagome closed her eyes when she spoke, “I just discovered something that made me see how blind I’ve been all this time.” Sesshoumaru frowned but before he could speak she continued, “…Sesshoumaru…is it true that you’ve liked me all this time?”
Sesshoumaru stood stunned, he had always been careful not to reveal his emotions…the only one who knew was…”I’ll kill that damn wolf…” His fists clenched as he contemplated tearing Kouga’s mouth off so he could never speak again.
Kagome’s eyes opened and was suprised seeing the anger on Sesshoumaru’s face but something told her it was directed at her and when she heard Sesshoumaru mention ‘wolf’ her thoughts were confirmed, “Kouga didn’t tell me.” When he had calmed again, Kagome continued, “….I caught Inuyasha with that witch…he told her that he never loved me…that he was only using me to make you jealous because he knew you liked me…”
Sesshoumaru’s anger at the wolf had deflated but at Kagome’s next words he felt red seep into his eyes and a snarl escaped his lips, causing Kaze and Blaze to stand up defensively silently watching him.
Kagome gasped and backed up a little, “Sess..Sesshoumaru…”
Sesshoumaru was snarling, his nails digging into his palms, the hanyou had gone too far this time. Kagome was not just any girl who could be used and thrown away just to make someone jealous. All the hate and anger he had ever felt towards the hanyou increased a thousand fold. He was contemplating tearing Inuyasha to shreds when the scent of fear reached him, he looked down seeing Kagome looking up at him with wide eyes, Kaze and Blaze was defensively against her sides. Realizing that he was the one causing her to be scared he closed his eyes as breathed deeply to calm his anger. When his eyes opened again the red was gone and amber orbs looked down at her.
He stepped towards her lowering slightly to a knee so that his eyes were level with hers, his right claw lifting to brush against her cheek, “…it is true that this Sesshoumaru has indeed had feelings for you for quite some time…since not long after you joined us”
Kagome looked into his eyes as her own hand lifted to touch his her eyes widening, “5 years….you’ve cared about me for 5 years? Why didn’t you ever say anything?”
Sesshoumaru sighed as he removed his claw standing again, “you were in love with Inuyasha and your first impressions of me were not that great.:
Kagome remembered, when she had first met Sesshoumaru the fighting between him and Inuyasha had been severe, “you’re right…at first…I may not have felt the same…”
Sesshoumaru started to turn but paused, his head glanced back at her, “at first?”
Kagome closed her eyes, “when I saw Inuyasha with Kikyo, at first all I felt was pain, hurt, and betrayal. Then after hearing everything he said and the pain had sunk in…I realized something…it was a different pain..I realized I had loved Inuyasha but that the love I felt towards Inuyasha wasn’t that of a lover anymore…it was that of a close friend…but I see now that he never even thought of me as a friend..and that betrayal cannot be forgiven…”
Sesshoumaru watched as her emerald eyes filled with a dark fire, he turned fully facing her again, “and the one that you truly cared for?”
Kagome stood and looked him straight in the eyes, “…it’s been there all this time but I was too blind to see it…the one I really love….is you…”
Sesshoumaru’s eyes widened as the mask that he usually wore melted away, his arms wrapped around her as his lips crashed down on hers. Mixed emotions of love and pride filled him as he felt her own arms wrap around him and the feel of her returning the kiss.
When he broke the kiss he looked down at her, she looked unsure about something, “what’s wrong?”
Kagome fidgeted digging the toe of her sandal into the ground as she chewed on her lips, then she lifted her head and he saw determination in her eyes, “…I want him to hurt too….will you help me make him pay for his betrayal.”
A cruel smile curved across his lips that sent a shiver down Kagome’s back, part of her wondered if it was a good idea to ask him. Sesshoumaru brushed a claw over her arm, “this Sesshoumaru will help make him regret the pain he has caused you, he will spend sleepless nights paying for his decision.”
