Chapter 4: Funny Business
The Next Morning
Sessomaru smirked to himself as he leaned over placing a kiss on his mate's forehead.
A sleepy “mmm” was all she managed before losing consciousness. His smirk grew he remembered the reason for his mate's exhaustion. `This Sesshoumaru has exhausted his little spitfire.' he mused striding gracefully toward his study. His thoughts continued along this track, his beast gloating about how well it did, until his sensitive nose picked up a familiar scent. Frowning, he noticed that it seemed to be coming from his study. `What could that damn hanyou want in this Sesshoumaru's study?'
You can imagine his surprise when he entered his study intent on teaching his `worthless half-breed' brother and lesson about personal space, only to find the offender curled up with Kari, the wolf hanyou, cousin of Lord Koga of the House of the Sun. Shocked speechless he didn't notice Kagome making her way toward him.
“What's so interesting?” She asked peeping over his shoulder.
At the sound of her voice the hanyous stirred and promptly jumped apart with inhuman speed.
“This isn't what it looks like!” “Nothing happened!” They said at the same time, Kari blushing slightly and Inuyasha looking distinctly uncomfortable.
Sesshoumaru's eyes gleamed sadistically as he inquired raising a perfectly sculpted brow. “And what, pray tell, dear bother are you doing, sleeping with a wolf on this Sesshoumaru's balcony?”
Inuyasha shifted from foot trying to think up an excuse.
“Well it's obvious isn't it?” Kari said coming to the rescue.
“What's obvious?” Kagome asked curious to know the answer.
“We broke into Lord Sesshoumaru's study this morning to see if we could get a reaction from him.”
“Yeah, we just wanted to see if the Lord of Fluff had his secret diary hidden in here.” Inuyasha said with his usual arrogance.
Kagome's eye's widened. “Sess has a diary?!”
Kari and Inuyasha exchanged smug looks.
“Mate, this Sesshoumaru has no use for a `diary'. These two are obviously lying.” he stated calmly.
“Sure you don't.” Inuyasha said sarcastically. “And I'm a cat.”
“Nah, you're too frumpy to be a cat.” Kari chimed sweetly.
“Frumpy?” Kagome asked confused.
“Flea-bitten Rude Unpleasant Maturity lacking and Pig-headed.” Kari explained. “Ergo frumpy.”
“I do not have fleas!” Inuyasha growled swatting his neck.
“Good morning young masters.” Myoga (the flea demon-I don't know if that's how it's spelled or not. Please just bear with me!)said re-inflating.
“And what is that?” Kari asked pointing to Myoga.
“Don't you know a flea when you see one?” He snapped.
“Ah ha! A flea that came off of your body!” Kari exclaimed triumphantly.
Kagome couldn't hold back any longer and promptly burst out laughing at the hanyou's dumbstruck expression, even the great and all-powerful Sesshoumaru had trouble containing himself as his brother stared dumbly at the wolf hanyou.
Kari took pity on the poor puppy a grabbed his hand saying, “Hurry up or we'll have to eat breakfast with them.” She nodded toward Kagome and Sesshoumaru while dragging him toward the door.
Inuyasha just `feh'ed and followed her to the dining room.
“Well!” Kagome huffed in mock hurt. “Just what is so bad about eating with us, huh?”
“Watching you fawn over each other.” Kari called.
“That's not as bad as watching you two swap spit at the table, though.” Inuyasha yelled before they took off down the hall.
“Why those two...!” Kagome growled. “Just who do they think they are?!”
Sesshoumaru chuckled in amusement. “Come, let us go down to the dining hall so we may commence our... `fawning'.”
Kagome looked up at him and blinked a few times. `Oh my gosh...did Sesshoumaru just make a funny?!'
Sesshoumaru just smirked at the awed expression on her face. `Perhaps I should employ humor more often.' He mused.
Meanwhile
Sango made her way to the dining hall hoping beyond hope that she wouldn't run into to that damn wolf. Fortunately, the hall was empty and she seated herself with a sigh as a servant scurried to bring her food. Unfortunately, not long after she began eating `that damn wolf' entered the room and made a beeline for her.
“Good morning.” he said just a little too cheerfully as a servant placed his breakfast in front of him.
Sango eyed him warily but decided it was better to be civil since he hadn't tried anything...yet. “Morning.”
“Sleep well?” he asked taking a sip of hot mint tea.
“Um...yeah. And you?” Sango responded still wary.
“Best night of my life.” he smirked causing Sango to blush.
Sango resumed eating, trying desperately to ignore Koga. Koga smirked and tapped her shoulder, getting ready to make his move.
“What?” Sango asked calmly turning to face him.
Koga's smirk widened. “Are you aware that by demon law, I'm obliged to mate you now?” he asked pleasantly.
Sango coughed nearly spitting out her tea. “You can't be serious!” she exclaimed.
“I assure that I am very serious. It would be dishonorable not to mate you now that we've been so...intimate.”
“WHAT??” Sango sputtered in outrage.
“We wouldn't want to ruin your reputation with a lot of nasty speculations would we?” he asked smugly.
“You came on to me! Beside no one saw us!” she said firmly.
“Are you forgetting about the guard?” Koga countered swiftly. “If word got to Sesshoumaru he has the right to demand we mate, hell he could even watch if he wanted to.”
“And just how do I know that your not making this up?” Sango demanded suspiciously.
“Ask him if you don't believe me. Better yet ask the mutt.” Koga said smiling victoriously.
“I plan to.” Sango retorted with a smirk. “Besides, you forget that Sesshoumaru's mate is my best friend. I'm willing to bet that she could persuade Sesshoumaru to have that guard `forget' he saw anything.”
`Damn, she's good. But not good enough.' he thought slightly amused that she had thought of a solution so quickly. `She's quick on her feet. She'll be a perfect mother for our pups. You'll be mine soon enough, Sango.'
`Ha! Take that!' Sango thought mentally patting herself on the back. `If he thinks I'm gonna fall for his little schemes he better think again. I don't care how sexy he is...wait a minute...SEXY?! Where did that come from?! Bad, bad, very bad Sango! What is WRONG with me?!' Her musing were cut short however when Inuyasha and Kari burst into the room laughing so hard they could barely stand.
“What's so funny?” Koga asked curiously.
The two recounted their `interview' with Sesshoumaru which caused them all to burst into fits of laughter. Mostly because they all kept imagining Lord Fluffy's secret diary entries.
The four of them were sitting on the floor recovering from their latest giggle fit when the object of their amusement waltzed into the room. One look at Sesshoumaru and all of four of them died laughing, clutching their sides in a vain effort to stifle their amused peels of laughter. Sesshoumaru merely raised an eyebrow when they finally calmed down. This action, unfortunately, cause them to break into another laughing fit. Making Kagome wonder if they were alright in the head. Sesshoumaru just passed it off as immaturity.
