There's something about the look in your eyes
Something I noticed when the light was just right
It reminded me twice that I was alive
And it reminded me that you're so worth the fight

My biggest fear will be the rescue of me
Strange how it turns out that way,

 

Could you show me dear... Something I've not seen?
Something infinitely interesting
Could you show me dear... Something I've not seen?
Something infinitely interesting

Wind whipped passed her as she made her way passed the well. “It's chilly..” she said as she wrapped her arms around herself the warm herself up. The autumn leaves glowed bright red and orange as the setting sun peaked though the forest's trees. The wind played with her mahogany locks causing it to fan around her like a cloak and her blue eyes seemed so much clearer then they were earlier then they were previously that day

 

 

As she continued to walk though the forest, she closed her eyes and thought of what she has been though lately and how much fake optimism she can still get away with. She HAD to be happy, showing her true feelings would bring the rest of them down, and the feeling of unhappiness had to be shown to another, for the one that her heart belonged to couldn't begin to comprehend what was going though her mind.

 

Love. Hate. Jealousy. Betrayal. Loneliness. Despair. All those things has made it's way into her very soul, and made her almost bitter, and yet, she puts on her mask and continues to live for the sake of others, instead of living for herself too.

 

 

Like an actress. Yes, actress. This was her role, she played it flawlessly and it pleased the audience. If that's what they needed, then she was going to do it. No matter how unbearable it got, and no matter how hard it got, she pleased her audience.

 

She laughed; looking at the blend of warm colors she realized why she love autumn. Not just for the obvious beauty that is around her, but because of how it represents her fully now as a young woman of 17. A beautiful thing, so promising to look at, but so very diverse, the colors of her heart were like those of a bittersweet rainbow. So beautiful, yet so sad.

 

Her brown swede boots steeped on the leaf-infested grass. Her long tights-clad legs slowed down and took her time to walk to her destination. Her black pleaded skirt moved with her movements as her blue cardgain sweater held her heart in her skin. Opening her brown jacket, she let the rush of the wind invoke her and she let out a heavy sigh.

 

When she opened her eyes she found herself on the other side of the forest, staring straight at the end of the cliff over-looking the village below. Not to her surprise, her was already waiting for her sitting on the grass with his head facing the village.

 

“I see you took your time today,” he said, still not facing her. His white hair looking even more unreal in the sunset.

 

She took her place beside him and laid her head on his lap. Her fingers entwine within his as she played with his fingers. His had found it's place in a familiar spot and rested itself there. He hasn't done that in years, not since they discontinued their secret relationship 3 years ago. In fact, they were never this intimate, just….there. The closeness never really disappeared from their relationship, they just decided to keep there distance since the younger brother had inferiority issues, and really couldn't stand the thought of her ever remotely close to the elder. Only in recent months have they been talking again, and letting their “friendship” build, it was an unusual feeling, but warm nonetheless

 

“ I see that you were early,” she said with a small smile. She moved her head to rest herself on his stomach, feeling his abs on her cheek, only letting go of his hand to play with his clothes.

 

For a brief moment everything was silent, it was serene, almost like all others didn't exist anymore, her gaze when to the sky above her, it's overwhelming beauty cleared her mind and made things so much easier.

 

“I want to leave Tokyo, not just this side, but just all together, I'm ready to, there is nothing left for me to do.”

 

He place his hand on her hand, looking at it and remembering the time that it was nonexistent, but that was years ago, and it grew back.

 

“ I also am ready to go, just leave here, too many memories, but as u know, I have business and cannot leave.”

 

“Yes you can,” she said, holding his hand again, “just drop everything and go. It's not like anyone's gonna look for you.”

 

He laughed.

 

“ There would be so much I would leave behind, important things that cannot be replaced. So, I stay until it's done. And you more then anyone knows exactly what those important things are.”

 

“Hm.” That's all she could say and she looked at the scenery around her. Her mind thought to what she would leave behind if she left, some good, some bad, some….painful. But she just wanted to run, away from her problems, and just….be.

 

“Do not worry, you will find someone for you.”

 

She laughed at the Irony. She never thought that she would hear those words from him.

 

“I know I will, someday, but I'm just a little fed up with love altogether, this just hasn't been my year.”

 

“Hn. I know.” He said as her grasped her hand tighter. Her eyes almost shed tears and just that action. For he knows better then anyone exactly how she feels, and thus is why they confine in each other, his pain, her pain, his fears, her fears, his loss, her loss. It's all one in the same.

 

“Sesshomaru?”

“yes, Kagome?”

 

“Why did you let me kiss you?”

 

He went silent.

 

“Sesshomaru?”

 

“Because I knew you wanted to.”

 

She cringed for a moment, the reason wasn't exactly what she wanted to hear, but it didn't hurt her feelings one bit. She knew the relationship's basis, and didn't expect more from him then that, she just laughed.

 

“Yeah, that is true.”

 

“Yes”

 

She sat up, her eyes reverting themselves from the scene slowly to his boots, his legs, his long hair to his beautiful golden eyes. They held such…emotion. His eyes are so different from how she was used to them years ago, The warm golden pools looked into the deep blue of her own eyes, filled with understanding that had been gathered though the years. She got up and positioned herself on his lap straddling him.

 

“So if I wanted to kiss you again, would u let me?”

 

He looked at her, not sure what to make of her actions, this was somewhat out of character for her, and yet so in character. She has changed so much ever since he found her crying at this very spot 2 years ago, a broken child. Not anymore.

 

“Hai”

 

And their lips met. The kiss was so different from the one shared earlier that week, this one was so sure, full of passion and emotion, a different kind of communicating. His hands found their was up the small of her back and under her shirt as he pulled her close to him, almost like her was molding their bodies into one being.

 

Her eyes closed, her arms around his neck she could feel the heat radiating off his body mingling with hers and driving her crazy. The warm pool that had gathered in-between her legs caused her to grind herself on him. The feeling of his hardness against her womanhood drove her insane and she picked up her speed.

 

Pulling her forward, he found his hands going up her skirt and slipping his hands into her panties. His fingers finding her womanhood, he slipped a finger into her core and felt her gasp and moan in response.

 

Feeling his digit go in and out of her caused her to buck against his hand and moan uncontrollably. The feeling of ecstasy guided her own hand into his pants and she fondled his manhood feeling him buck and moan as her hand gave him pleasure. As the wind picked up, the cold air stopped neither of them, so they were so lost in the feelings of each other's caresses. All feelings of sadness and loneliness hidden between the moans of the pair as if the wind was carrying the lone memories with them.

 

“ Why are we doing this”?

 

“Because we both deserve it”

 

“Why?” she panted

 

“Because we both have waited too long.”

 

And with that she felt a ripple though her body as she climaxed screaming his name in the process. She was so high, her body felt so light she thought she would float away, her heart her mind, her soul, felt as if someone had just given her the greatest gift. As she made her way back to reality, she found her hand that was in his pants, now being held by him he helped her stand up and they stood there. The sun was almost completely down, and the reflection of his eyes was so calm, yet eerie.

 

“Wh- why? I want, I mean, we can-“

 

He stopped her mid sentence, and her hugged her.

 

“Sesshomaru?”

 

“Kagome, not now, I don't deserve it, wait for a ring.”

 

She laughed bitterly

 

“ How funny for you to say something like that to me, especially since you know my virginity is long gone.” She held on to him as tears started to form in her eyes. “ So saying something like that makes me feel almost pure again.”

 

He said nothing, all he did was hold her, feeling her warmth, her lithe form, her scent, just….her. Knowing this has to end, end very soon.

 

“Kagura, You love her don't you.'

 

“Hai”

 

“Heh, I know you do,” she said smiling with her eyes closed placing her forehead on his, “Just remember, be happy.”

 

“You too Kagome, You too.”

 

And then he left her.

 

Her eyes opened and found him nowhere, just herself on that cliff, and yet she didn't cry out to him. She actually smiled for she knows where his heart lies, and she knows where her's lies too.

 

She turned around and maid her way to the village, “It's Dinner Time, I better go before Inu Yasha has a heart attack.

 

“Just remember, be happy.”

 

“You too Kagome, you too.”

Theres something about the way you move
I see your mouth in slow motion when you sing
More subtle than something someone contrives
Your movements echo that I have seen the real thing

Your biggest fear will be the rescue of you
Strange how it turns out that way, yeah

Could you show me dear... Something I've not seen?
Something infinitely interesting
Could you show me dear... Something I've not seen?
Something infinitely interesting

A/N: Another one done, but this one holds a particular place in my heart, mostly because this is s situation I just went though, so in a way, I just let you into my life a bit. I decided to use Kagome and Sesshomaru because in a way, I can see that happening, in some far off alternate thing. Kagome's character in this felt so real to a lot off ppl when I showed them this, her pain with the whole kikyou/ Inu Yasha relationship, and how her love just isn't enough sometimes, and yes, kikyou is dead in this one, (following the Japanese Manga) and still her emotional issues with the events that have happened I think would put a metal strain on her, so instead of being all feisty she is in the anime, I put her vulnerability in there, she is, after all, the optimist in the Inu-tachi, and being the person that she is, she couldn't just go all out and be negative, so she is like an “actress”. Also giving the fact that Inu Yasha and co have other more “intense” issues to deal with and shippou being just a kid, I though, “hey, I think Sesshomaru would be able to help her!” yeah weird, but I mean, he has issues himself, and has no one to talk to, so…fate is funny in the ironic kind of way. Review if you like, tell me what u think.
