I do not own Inuyasha and Company, no matter how happy it would make me. Rumiko Takahashi does. I make no money from these fics.

His eyes shifted to the side, taking in her position, before finishing it. With a flick of his wrist, the last of the demons that had attacked their group was dead and Sesshoumaru took a subtle step to the right, purposely allowing the rain of blood to fall on his pristine white sleeve.

 

In seconds, Jaken was squawking and sputtering while rushing to Ah Un to retrieve a fresh haori and all the while Kagome stared, eyes wide, shocked that he'd managed to get soiled in battle for the first time. It hadn't even looked like he'd tried to avoid it! She nearly choked on air as he began to remove his armor right there in front of everyone, in front of her, piece by piece.

 

Sesshoumaru fought back a smirk at her dazed expression. Yes, this was going to be just as entertaining as anticipated.

 

“My… My Lord…” the annoying toad interrupted his pleasant perusal of the miko.

 

“Jaken?” the taiyoukai said in a warning tone, clearly stating to get on with it and then get out of the way.

 

“Your haori, My Lord,” Jaken stuttered, holding the fresh article up high while praying his hand remained attached when he pulled his arm back down.

 

Sesshoumaru locked eyes with Kagome, watching as she completely stopped breathing, and slowly began to slip his bloody haori off his shoulders. As the silk fluttered to the ground behind him to reveal his bare chest, she let out a whoosh of air before unconsciously pulling her bottom lip between her teeth, nibbling as she set out to study every inch.

 

“Oi, Kagome!” Inuyasha bellowed; irritated that the miko seemed oblivious to her surroundings, oblivious to him and the wounds he'd received during battle. Sure, he was fine and would heal quickly and completely, but that didn't mean she shouldn't still be concerned.

 

The voice behind her made Kagome jump, turning to see what the heck the hanyou's problem was, interrupting the moment she'd been waiting for forever!

 

By the time she turned back, Sesshoumaru was once more fully dressed and Kagome's face fell. Her lips curled into a dark smirk and she whispered, “Sit,” in retaliation for her loss, sending Inuyasha slamming into the ground forcefully. “Oh well,” she mumbled to herself. “There's always next time.”

 

Sesshoumaru heard her softly spoken words and mentally grinned. `Yes, my miko, there is always next time.'
