Light

 

Dawn. The sunlight poured in from east, a gentle red hue cast its self upon the land and his form. He stood watching and waiting against a tree. “Foolish girl” the thought entered his mind and would not leave. She was his after all, so therefore she could not be harmed, even by herself. His locks of pearl white swayed in the breeze and along his bare chest, this place was so strange to him. The smells, the heat, the way things looked, everything. It was a foreign place to him and yet familiar, as if he were here before.

 

She awoke to the morning dove's chirps. Long auburn hair streaked with white bands was plastered to her sweaty face and figure. The sheets were tangled about her body, she had had a dream. Bastard, bastard, why was he in her dreams? Why was that arrogant prick assaulting her even in her sleep? How could it be that the same man who had tried to kill her, affect her so much? Damn him!

 

“Are you awake?”

“No, I'm not, go away.”

“We must be going, get up.”

 

Sesshoumaru took her rejection as an invitation into her room.

 

“I don't want to.”

“Well you have to.”

“Leave me alone, jackass.”

“Listen bitch, we are leaving right now whether or not you want to.”

 

He reached over and attempted to pull off her covers, she caught them in time. If not he would have exposed her form to the world. Her lithe nude form was tense under his stern gaze.

 

“Get up.”

“Give me a minute. Get out so I can get dressed.”

“Woman you try my patience.”

 

She threw a pillow at his retreating back causing him to halt in mid stride. He was not pleased with her action. In a sharp quick move he turned and pounced on his prey. She let out a yelp that was muffled quickly by his deft hand. She was going to pay for her disobedience. He slammed her into her bed and straddled her form. She was going to submit to him, willingly or by force.

 

“Miko, what in seven hells possessed you to throw that at this Sesshoumaru?”

“I have a name.”

“Answer my question bitch.”

“I have a name.”

 

Sesshoumaru began to get more than slightly irritated. He began to growl lowly at her.

“Ka-go-me, why did you throw that object at this Sesshoumaru?”

“Because for some reason my name seems to slip from your mind every time we seem to have a conversation.”

“That does not give you the right to throw projectiles at me.”

“What?” Kagome began to laugh at Sesshoumaru.

“What is so amusing?”

“YOU, you're funny!”

“How am I funny?”

“Kami lighten up, you try to pull of my sheets, I throw a pillow at your back, then you straddle me and now I'm supposed to what? Apologize? That's not going to happen.”

“…Kagome, do not-“

“Do not what? Irritate you? Sorry bub, but you are in my room inside my house, therefore MY rules!”

“Really and do you believe that you can overpower me?”

“Yes, I do in fact.”

“What makes you so sure about that?”

“I have my ways.”

“Nani?”

“Sesshoumaru, did anyone any one ever tell you that you have the most amazing golden eyes?”

“No, what are you getting at?”

“It's called a compliment Sesshoumaru.”

“I know what it's called but why are you doing it?”

 

She began to run her hands through his ivory locks.

 

“Your hair is so soft too.”

 

He began to purr at her ministrations and leaned his head against her collar.

 

“Are you purring?”

“I do not purr.”

“Yes you do!”

“No I do not.”

“Yes you do.”

“No.”

“Yes.”

“No.”

“Yes.”

“No.”

“Ye-”

 

Sesshoumaru covered her mouth with his two can play this game. He delved his tongue into her partially closed mouth. He allowed his hands to wander her form. He knew what she was trying to do, distract him to escape. That was not an option; no one leaves his presence without his permission. Kagome broke free from his lip lock:

 

“…I'm naked, get out!”

“This is supposed to faze me?”

“…you HENTAI!!”

“…bitch…”

 

He went on to continue his assault on her person; she was to be his but to no avail. She managed to evade him by lifting her chin and hands. He took her hands and held them in one of his above her head and the other to make her face him.

 

“Sesshoumaru, are we not leaving?”

 

Thank the gods for previous engagements!

 

“Yes.”

 

His lips trailed down her neck.

 

“Should we not get going?”

“It can wait.” His free hand was traveling down her side.

“Demo the others are waiting for us.”

“They can wait.” His hand was getting dangerously close to her thighs.

“Sesshoumaru get off of me.”

“No.”

“Sesshoumaru, please get off.”

“You smell wonderful.” Said hand was on her thigh now.

“Sesshoumaru.” She began to become nervous.

“Why are you scared?”

“I'm not scared of you; it's just that your hand and you've been … doing things.”

“This does not please you?”

“Not when I have more important things to do.”

“So it's duty before happiness.” Sesshoumaru lifted himself off of her; he adjusted himself and walked over to her dresser. He grabbed a shirt and tossed it at her. “So eager are you to walk the valley of the dead… even when you have not treaded upon the path of the living.”

 

Sesshoumaru left her room feeling rejected and bitter.

 

“Sesshoumaru.” She spoke his name in a hushed whisper; he truly did care for her. A solitary tear escaped her; she was too determined to defeat Naraku to realize that although she would be the bringer of great elation to the people of Feudal Japan she would also be the cause of her friends' despair. The bastard was right but she could not back down, not now. Not when she could almost taste victory.

 

Kagome quickly dressed herself and left her room to find Sesshoumaru. On her way down the stairs she trips on Buyo and stumbles into the living room where she steps on Sesshoumaru's tail.

 

“Gomen!”

“Clumsy girl!”

“I said sorry!”

“What's going on?” Kagome's mother walked in from outside.

“I stepped on his tail.”

“Why did you do that?”

“Not on purpose I tripped on Buyo, he was on the stairs, and I ended up stepping on his tail.”

“You poor thing you!” Mrs. Higurashi embraced Sesshoumaru tightly. “I've been stepped on by her before. I know it hurts.”

“Mom!”

“What it's true, you would think not from your size it wouldn't but it does. It's the truth.”

“… Well we are leaving for the well today.”

“Okay, so when are you coming back?”

“I don't know.”

“Well you are both eating before you go,” with that Mrs. Higurashi left to commence breakfast.

“Umm, is that alright with you Sesshoumaru?”

“Yes.”

“I am sorry.”

“You are forgiven.”

“I feel bad though.”

“Forget it.”

 

Kagome could tell that he was not in a good mood, even if his face was a mask of nothingness, she could feel his pain. She had mistaken it for when she had stepped on him but the pain was in fact deeper than that. With her transformation she now held the ability to sense what others were feeling even though she wished she could not.

 

“Sesshoumaru, does it hurt?”

“Does what hurt?”

“Your tail.”

“No.”

“Then why are you in pain?”

 

Mrs. Higurashi finished with her assembly of pancakes, eggs, bacon, fruit and various juices. She was used to preparing meals in advance since she never knew when Inu-Yasha could come over and devour her household, Buyo owed her his life, damn cat.

 

“Kagome, Souta, Sesshoumaru, food.”

“Coming!”

 

Sesshoumaru stood up an walked towards the dining room entrance.

 

“Sesshoumaru?”

 

Kagome was left behind while Sesshoumaru and her brother entered the kitchen. What did she do?
