Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha, Sesshomarou would have been the one to hold Kagura's heart.
“Speaking”
`Thinking'
The dog demon suddenly inched forward to lightly press his lips against hers. The two of them were shocked at his action, and jolted in slight surprise, but none of them moved to break away from the contact of their lips.
In any case, the two demons knew it would be pointless to try to deny how good it made them feel. With every second of tasting Kagura's cherry lips, Sesshomarou felt his earlier resolve completely crumble to pieces. How could he have ever thought he would be able to stay away from her?
He gently ran his tongue over her bottom lip and Kagura eagerly opened her mouth to greet his demanding tongue. As their tongue entwined, Kagura moaned in lust and clenched her fists in the material of Sesshomarou's shirt, pressing him even closer to her. She had missed Sesshomarou and decided to simply enjoy his kiss, instead of thinking about how it could complicate things between them more than they already were.
Letting his emotions come out, the dog demon gently pushed Kagura backwards, ever careful of her abdomen where his child was growing. He let go of Kagura's lips, but only long enough to gently hover over her and nibble her sensitive ear. Hearing Kagura moan in pure pleasure, only spurred Sesshomarou on. Now that the wind sorceress was in his bed, under him, Sesshomarou realized that he was not willing to let her go just yet.
Trailing his warm hands down the sides of the woman beneath him, the dog demon felt her skin shiver in pleasure. While lowering his kisses to the crook of Kagura's neck, Sesshomarou's fingers expertly and carefully unbuttoned her sky blue pajama top. After successfully divesting het top of two constricting buttons, the dog demon through the soft cotton fabric happily weighed Kagura's heavier breasts in his warm palms.
With a lustful groan, the silver haired demon trailed open mouth kisses from Kagura's milky neck to her collarbone, but he did not get to taste her bosom as a deep moan from Kagura once more attracted Sesshomarou to her slightly swollen red lips.
Feeling the dog demon laying over her, playing with her breasts with his sinfully skilled fingers, his mouth firmly locked with hers, made Kagura fight through the haze the pleasure she was experiencing had thrust her in. As she slowly regained her senses, she started thinking about what they were doing.
The wind sorceress was aware that even if her body was ready and more than willing to spend the night with Sesshomarou, she was sure that her heart was not. There was still too much uncertainty in Sesshomarou's feelings towards her. And also Kagura feared that Sesshomarou's reaction to their kiss was due to either the fact that finding a dog demon alone in his bedroom at night was not the best idea, or simply to the wine she had tasted on his tongue. Just thinking about it made her sober up from her pleasure haze.
“Stop” she suddenly said pushing Sesshomarou away.
Surprised by the sudden interruption, Sesshomarou quickly stepped aside and stood up from the inviting heat of his bed and the even more tempting woman lying in it.
His golden eyes were shining in concern as he asked “Did I hurt you or the baby?”
Sesshomarou was so angry that he could have smacked himself. The simple idea that the burning desire he had for the woman now sitting up in his bed, could have led to him hurting his child to be, angered him.
“No, not at all” Kagura assured him, a gentle smile etching on her face at seeing Sesshomarou's concern. She tugged at her shirt, frantically trying to close the buttons of her pajama top as quickly as possible. She blushed as she realized how swiftly the dog demon had managed to disrobe her.
“I'm sorry to lead you on like that… but I just... I can't. It's just that… we can't do this. It's not right… We can't get carried away like that…” Kagura then suddenly leaped up from the bed, swiftly slipped her feet in her flip flops, picked up her coat and her purse and quickly headed for the door.
`This kiss didn't mean anything. I better forget it all and go home as fast as possible. If I don't I'll get my hopes up and get hurt. He's a man he only wanted sex anyway. Not that I see why he'd want me now' Kagura thought looking down with a frown at her bulging belly.
Confusing mixed feelings of fear, anxiety, but to her dismay happiness about what had just happened between her and Sesshomarou, spread through the wind sorceress.
“At what time tomorrow?” Sesshomarou asked in a steady voice, masking the inner turmoil he felt triggered by Kagura's kisses and caresses.
His golden eyes were resting on Kagura's retreating form, willing her to turn around and look at him. He wanted to start a conversation, on any topic, if only to allow Kagura to stay close to him longer. He feared that if she was to leave his side tonight without the two of them talking and making some sort of progress in their relationship, Kagura would walk out and things would only go downhill.
“What are you talking about?” Kagura asked, not keen on discussing with Sesshomarou. After all the faster she would leave his house, the less she would want to climb back in bed with Sesshomarou to finish what they had started.
“The doctor's appointment. At what time is it? You said we should meet there.” Sesshomarou said.
“Oh that's right. The baby's check up, it's at three” Kagura said slowly backing towards the door of the bedroom. “I'll see you later”.
“Where are you going?” Sesshomarou asked her. He had finally come down from the haze his encounter with Kagura had pushed him in, and was now able to think completely rationally.
“Home, where I should be” Kagura said trying but failing to school her features to appear cold.
“You are not driving. I already sent my driver home, and I am not willing to move from here” Sesshomarou said giving her a grave look meaning he was not open to discussion.
“And why wouldn't I be driving home myself?” Kagura asked outraged that once more Sesshomarou tried to make decisions for her.
“I can easily tell that you are tired. It's late. It's raining. It wouldn't be safe. End of discussion.” Sesshomarou explained.
Kagura could see the logic in his reasoning. Sesshomarou was right in his assumption that she indeed was tired, not to mention the fact that she too could easily make out the sounds of the raindrops falling outside with force. What had started as a light rain was quickly turning into a downpour.
“You can sleep here, nothing will happen” Sesshomarou said gesturing towards the unoccupied side of his bed.
“Your place is freaking huge, you must have guest rooms or whatever” Kagura said her eyes uncomfortably shifting to Sesshomarou's bed.
“I do, but since you came unannounced they have not been prepared. And as you can guess the members of my staff are asleep” Sesshomarou said. “What are you waiting for wind witch?” He asked, noticing Kagura's reluctance.
Kagura nervously bit her lower lip. Could she really believe nothing would happen if they were to share the same bed? Another and more important question was `did she really not want something to happen?'
`Why are you afraid? You two are just friendsare you not? Although that earlier kiss was nothing friend like…' her inner demon asked on a mocking tone.
`I am not afraid' Kagura said as she took off her shoes, before throwing her coat and purse in an armchair resting in a corner of Sesshomarou's room. The wind sorceress took a big calming breath, and wishing that she would not regret her decision later on, slid in between Sesshomarou's sheets.
Seeing that she had settled in quite nicely, Sesshomarou let out a small relieved sigh, before joining Kagura in bed a victorious grin on his lips. The dog demon did not even bother changing into his sleeping garments, knowing Kagura, he would not put it past her to run away from his house the second he stepped away to go change.
“You better not be getting any funny ideas.” The wind sorceress said as she felt Sesshomarou's warm skin brush against hers, which sent a pleasing tingling sensation throughout her body. The kaze youkai knew that the warning was issued to Sesshomarou, as much as it was issued to herself.
“I assure you, nothing will happen” The dog demon promised her, feeling Kagura tense slightly.
“Says the one who kissed me” Kagura remarked with a snort.
“You did not seem to mind,. Or is this Sesshomarou wrong? You did kiss me back after all….” The dog demon remarked, as he scooted closer to Kagura. His chest was pressed firmly against her back, as the two of them laid on their sides facing the same direction, Sesshomarou's form spooning Kagura's smaller one.
Knowing that she would immediately try to protests his earlier words, Sesshomarou wrapped his arm over Kagura's hip and rested his hand against her swollen stomach before murmuring in her ear “Silence, go to sleep”.
Not able to resist the temptation of her smooth skin displayed in front of him, Sesshomarou pressed a small tender kiss to the back of Kagura's neck before burying his nose in her hair, taking in her scent with great pleasure.
Kagura shivered in pleasure at the feel of his warm lips on her skin. She quickly swallowed the infuriated words she had felt rising just a few seconds before. Even if she did not want to admit it aloud, being held by Sesshomarou this way felt nice, and she was in truth really sleepy. Only a few minutes later, the wind witch was soundly asleep. Sesshomarou was intently listening to the comforting and even sound of her breathing, when his inner demon said:
`Looks like someone lost of his legendary self control' Sesshomarou's inner demon commented with glee.
`I did no such thing' Sesshomarou retorted.
`Of course jumping on Kagura after saying you wanted to be “just friends” absolutely does not fall in this category. Neither of course does forcing her to sleep in the same bed as you. I told you it would be too hard to keep away from her…'
`Actually, you were right. This Sesshomarou always gets what I want. And I want the witch.' The dog demon thought smugly with a small sigh.
`You mean you desire hermore than you have ever covetedanythingbefore…' His inner demon corrected.
`Technicalities…' Sesshomarou interrupted. `In any case, maybe I should reconsider my decision of staying away from her…' The silver haired demon conceded as he took in a deep intake of breath, in which he could easily make out Kagura's natural scent entwined with her earlier arousal.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
As he opened his eyes, Sesshomarou noticed with a smug smile, some time during the night the wind sorceress had moved from their original sleeping position. As if she had tried to steal as much from his warmth as possible, Kagura was now pressed flush against him. Her head was resting on his chest, and their legs were tangled under the covers.
The dog demon observed her delicate features for a long time. He wondered sadly when was the last time the two of them had a conversation without Kagura's beautiful face contorting into a grimace of either anger or sadness. With a heavy sigh Sesshomarou ran his claws through Kagura's dark hair, which had come loose from her ponytail.
“Can we really forget everything and go back to the way it used to be?” He wondered in a whisper. As if Kagura had heard his words she started moaning as she awakened.
“Good morning” Sesshomarou said as Kagura opened her crimson eyes.
Noticing that she was not in her bed, and that she had not slept alone, the wind witch gasped in shock. But as the events of the previous night slowly came back to her, notably her make out session with the golden eyed demon looking down at her with a smug grin, Kagura bolted out of the bed a red tinge on her cheeks.
“Where are you running away to now?” Sesshomarou asked in a sigh as he sat up in his bed to look at Kagura.
“I am not running away. I simply have to go… because I have to see Kagome.” Kagura said as she quickly put on her flip flops a smile on her lips, proud that she had so easily found a quick excuse.
“Rubbish. This Sesshomarou can once more see right through you. You are being dishonest just like yesterday” The dog demon said.
“What the fuck are you talking about now?!” Kagura asked sending him a glare.
“Wind witch you knew very well that this Sesshomarou is neither dishonest nor seeing anyone. Why don't you be honest with yourself and admit that you merely wished to see me?” Sesshomarou asked softly with a seductive smile
`I wanted to see him?!' Kagura wondered.
She bit her lower lip in frustration when she realized how true the words sounded. It was an acceptable thing for her to come to such a realization by herself, but for Sesshomarou to so easily see through her and point it out enraged the wind sorceress.
“My aren't you feeling smug this morning” Kagura tried to joke away Sesshomarou's insightful remark. “Sorry to burst your bubble and all, but unfortunately I have places to be right now.”
Trying to appear as composed as possible, and not as the clingy desperate ex she felt she had been behaving like, Kagura walked towards the armchair where she had unceremoniously tossed her things the previous night. .
Quickly getting to his feet and rounding the bed, Sesshomarou beat her to it and picked up her purse and jacket. Noticing the troubled expression in Kagura's crimson eyes and deciding to leave her alone to her confusing thoughts for the moment without trying to influence her decision, Sesshomarou helped her put on her jacket before stepping away from the wind sorceress without saying a word.
“I'll see you later” Kagura said as she hurried out of the door without looking back.
`Strange. Did my stating such an obvious truth make her react this way?' The inu youkai wondered.
Sesshomarou's reflection on Kagura's sudden hasty retreat was cut short when Rin came running into his bedroom. The little girl threw open the wooden door using all her strength.
“Where is she?” his daughter asked out of breath panting heavily due to the fast pace at which she had come running to her father's bedroom.
Quite disappointed to find her father alone in his room the little girl said with a sad pout “Jaken said she slept here.”
“Kagura left already” Sesshomarou informed, noticing with a heavy heart Rin's saddened expression and teary eyes.
“Will she come back?” the little girl asked on the verge of tears. Rin had missed her beloved wind sorceress dearly. This coupled with the fact that her father had told her about Kagura's pregnancy only made the little girl want to see the wind sorceress even more.
“Oh I am sure she will” Sesshomarou said with a smirk, as he looked down at his bed where his and Kagura's mingled scents still lingered.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
“I don't care where you are. We need to meet right fucking now!” Kagura said at her two best friends. The three of them were having a call conference. The wind sorceress had so much to tell them, and it was to her dismay that she came home to an empty apartment.
“No can do. Kaori just fell asleep. Byakuya and I were up all night. I'm so exhausted, and I intend to take a good long nap” Yura said with a yawn.
“Inuyasha is cooking me breakfast. Actual food not instant ramen! I can't pass up this opportunity” Kagome said apologetically. “Just tell us what's wrong” she added.
“What's wrong is that I kissed Sessh. Well he is the one who kissed me...anyway you know what I mean” Kagura said collapsing on her couch. She had not even bothered changing from her pajamas. “Oh and by the way Kags, I'm going to kill both you and Inuyasha for sure!”
“Well it's not my fault! How could I know Inuyasha was just mocking Sesshomarou? Turns out he meant that since he fired Touran, without a secretary Sesshomarou has been having more work to do. He just can't seem to find her a proper replacement…” Kagome said trying to appease her friend.
“And when Inuyasha asked his brother to help with the wedding, Sesshomarou answered that he had enough on his plate with taking care of Shiori and all, so that he really didn't want to be bothered with frivolous things. As if my wedding wasn't important!” The miko added pouting in indignation. “He may be insensitive, but I've got to admit that the idea of Sesshomarou seeing someone would have surprised me too much. I'm sure you agree too.” Kagome said.
“Don't you even go there too! I already had Sessh trying to analyze my real emotions and motives this morning! Why is everyone hell bent on trying to dissect my actions and feelings? I know what I'm doing” Kagura exclaimed in exasperation.
“Oh yeah? Sure as hell doesn't look like it. Please don't try to make excuses. It's not Inuyasha's nor anyone else's fault you couldn't resist to Sesshomarou. Now be honest what else happened?” Yura asked now completely alert. She was too enthralled by Kagura's love life to think about her nap.
“Before you start know that nothing happened.. Well…there was some kissing…maybe a little touching, but nothing serious… then again, we did sleep in the same bed.” Kagura said not able to keep a small satisfied smile and a faint flush from appearing on her face.
“And nothing more will happen!” Yura exclaimed. “You have got to put an end to this Kagura! You've always been a strong girl except when it comes to your heart. I swear it's your weakness. I know that you've been hurt before thanks to Naraku and are not keen on being again but that's exactly what's going to happen. You have to stop pretending that things are going to be okay. Instead of trying to push the whole `proposal' problem away and sweep it under a rug, face it head on. I told you before, I won't let you take this any further with Sesshomarou unless the two of you talk, but seriously talk. I know you're seeing Sesshomarou today, and you're going to get answers, otherwise I will for you.” The hair demoness let a small pause to let her threat sink in.
“I understand” Kagura said with a sigh. Her sister in law's words had struck a little too close to Kagura's previous own thoughts.
“Good. I am sure you don't want me and Byakuya to barge into Sesshomarou's office and demand what his intentions really are for you.” The hair demoness joked.
“Fine fine! Just don't do anything to embarrass me please! I swear to talk to Sesshomarou” Kagura pleaded. “Now I'm going to have to say bye and get ready!” Without another word, she hung up.
`What's wrong with me? How could a simple remark of Inuyasha, of all people, make me react like such a love struck puppy? I literally ran to Sesshomarou…!' The wind sorceress said to herself with a long suffering sigh as she fell back into the couch.
`It is understandable; love can make you do stupid things…' Her inner demon remarked.
`I wouldn't say stupid... I'm way beyond that. It's as if the second Sesshomarou is concerned my whole thinking abilities go out the freaking door.' Kagura lamented.
`I just hate how crazy I get the instant Sesshomarou is concerned! And the worse part of it all is that the bastard knows the power he has over me… should have seen that insufferable smug smirk of his!' Kagura thought in anger smashing her fist on the cushion at her side.
`Thankfully I had enough sense not to jump in bed with him that only would have made things worse. The wind sorceress thought proud of herself.
`But you wanted to “jump in bed with him”, didn't you?' Her inner demon remarked on a mocking tone.
`Are you kidding? Of course I wanted to. But I won't sleep with Sesshomarou, at least not until I get the answers I want. Answers to the questions I am going to ask today!' Kagura thought firmly.
Glad to have slightly settled her mind, Kagura stood up from her living room couch, and went to get ready for her doctor's appointment.
To be continued…
