Upon their arrival back to the group Kagome had received a tongue lashing from Sango. Miroku had refused to look at her. Shippo informed her that he wouldn't be speaking to her after this. Jaken had asked Sesshomaru if he could use the staff of two heads to char her a just a little. Sesshomaru had refused saying that it was not necessary and even Rin had some choice words to call her before kicking her in the shin and stalking off. Hanging her head Kagome took a page from Inuyasha's book and walked off to brood underneath a tree.

 

It wasn't to long till a familiar figure in white came walking toward her holding a plate of food. Taking a seat beside her he offered her the plate of food.

 

“I'm not hungry.” Kagome said looking away from him.

 

“You should eat.” He said trying to push the plate towards her.

 

“I said that I'm not hungry. Don't go thinking that you can tell me what to do, because we are mated.” Kagome said narrowing her eyes at him and waggling her finger. She was ready for him to get haughty or maybe smack her, but when he frowned and his eyes brimmed with tears she didn't know to do.

 

“Why would you think that I would want to change you? Did you forget how many times I saved you since I joined the group? I had even been training you.” Sesshomaru said transforming into an energy and shot off into the air.

 

“What the hell was that?” Kagome whispered into the air.

 

“That is the shit I have had to deal with since you pulled your disappearing act.” Inuyasha said hopping down from a near by tree and walking over to her.

 

“Afraid I would run off again?” Kagome grumbled leaning her head on her hand.

 

“No, you it isn't safe for a human to be alone in the woods and your family now. No matter how fuck up it came about, it still happened.” Inuyasha said taking a seat beside her.

 

“Great now you two decide to care about family. A couple of months ago you two couldn't stand to even look at each other.” Kagome scoffed rolling her eyes.

 

“He showed up a day after you left and sat waiting by the well for you to return. After a week of waiting for you he came to me crying and crap, telling me this whole crazy story. Like I said I can deal with assholes, but I cant deal with people crying. You know that.” Inuyasha sighed leaning his head against the tree

 

“Then Kaede told us what had happened in the hut and I tried to go get you, but you had that barrier on the well. I don't know it was strange. He got real sick and refused to eat. Rin cried all the time saying that he was dying and when I actually thought that I would lose my brother. That I would be all alone I got pissed, tracked down Kikyo and dragged your ass back here to your family.” Inuyasha finished looking at his best friend critically.

 

“He got sick. You mean like morning sickness?” Kagome asked feeling a twist in her gut.

 

“No, He laid in Kaede's hut whining like a pup. He had a fever like I had never seen.” He said as a shiver ran down his back recalling the sight of his brother.

 

“I thought you loved me.” Kagome said looking her hands and fumbling her fingers.

 

“Come on Kagome. Neither of us has ever felt that way about each other. Best friends sure, but never anything more. You know it just like I do.” Inuyasha said looking away.

 

“Yeah yeah, I know. I just always thought that I would be with someone who would love me. I also thought that I would have this damn quest over by then.” Kagome sighed.

 

“You should apologize to him. He could smell the other male on you and thinks you don't find him attractive or some shit like that.” Inuyasha said getting to his feet.

 

“You have to freaking kidding me.” Kagome said as Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders and walked away from her. A few minutes later the energy ball came back and Sesshomaru was once again sitting silently beside her.

 

“I'm sorry.” She said as her shoulders slumped. He rose his eye to look at her with tiny tears threatening to fall. “Good gravy you aren't you going to cry again?” Kagome asked.

 

He quickly looked away wiping his eyes dry. “No.” he replied in tiny whimper.

 

Inhaling deeply she moved to the side of him and gave him hug hoping that her head would still be attached to her body when she pulled back. She was not expecting for him to pull her into crushing hug making her struggle for air.

 

“H..hu..man.” She rasped reminding him as he gasped letting her go.

 

It didn't take that long to get to the palace much to Kagome's dismay. She was now sitting at a large table with Sesshomaru's cousins and his mother. Yes, the bitch of all bitches was there and out for blood. Kagome's blood as a matter of fact, but Sesshomaru was trying to make them understand Kagome's ignorance. She however was trying to stay silent and not cause any more trouble than she already had.

 

`Inlaws' Kagome inwardly snarled to herself

 

“Sesshomaru, you know the laws. All she has to do is be bound to a post naked for as many days as she was missing.” The demoness bitch said waving her hand as if it was a smack on the wrist. Kagome's eyes widened, but Sesshomaru grabbed her hand.

 

“It isn't like she committed adultery.” Takai said raising a brow to the miko

 

“I'll have you know that I am a virgin…. In this form at least.” Kagome blurted out and then slapped a hand over her mouth as Sesshomaru sighed.

 

“Yes and why is that? Think you are to good for a demon, miko?” Yukio asked looking at his cousin with anger rolling in his eyes.

 

“I never said that. I offered to complete it.” Kagome replied in defense of herself

 

“I refused to mate with her in the forest like an animal.” Sesshomaru huffed

 

“Yet it was okay for her to mate you in a dirty dungeon.” His mother sneered

 

“Enough, I am getting a headache. We will continue this later after I have rested.” Sesshomaru said rising from the table with Kagome being drug behind him. Leaving his mother along with his cousins to sit and bicker.

 

Kagome knew that this would not be the last of their interference. The glares that she received and the cold chill in the room threatened a horrible death or at least a painful beating. They had almost reached his room when the sound of a screaming demoness caught their attention. Kagome looked at him and could see a strange look on his face.

 

“Who is that Sesshomaru?” Kagome asked as a furious blue haired demoness with bright golden eyes that glowed like the sun stood at the end of the hallway. Tears streaking down her face and Kagome thought that he was going to start crying again, but only held her hand stronger nearly crushing it as the demoness strode toward them.

 

“You were mine. You said that once you rid the land of that Naraku we were to be mates.” The female said as she reached them and placed her hand on his cheek. Then suddenly pulled back and whacked him hard across the cheek.

 

“Hey, his pregnant! You can't run around striking pregnant men. What kind of demoness are you?” Kagome growled jumping between them and pushing the female away.

 

“He was my man. You stole him!” She said readying her claws to strike.

 

“Sakura!” Sesshomaru yelled pulling Kagome behind him. “Leave!” He thundered

 

At his harsh tone the demoness backed away in fear. He blinked a few times before turning on heel and rushing to his chambers. It was at that time that her guilt weighed heaviest on her. She wondered just what the demon lord was giving up instead pouting about what she was losing. Perhaps she should try and get to know him at least before she is beaten by one of her new enemies.

 

“I am so kicking Naraku's ass.” Kagome said balling her fists and ready to fight.

 

A/N I am so glad that you guys like this and I hope that it at least makes you chuckle. So ready for this damn winter to be over.
