Chapter 10
Kagome watched his stop come and go. “He must have not got the message” she thought. Glancing down at the shirt she now wore, she was glad he didn't show. She had gotten it from Keade after Rin puked all over her. She loved Keade with all her heart, but she dressed like any normal grandma would, the 100% polyester teal green blouse just didn't look right on a woman her age.
She stepped off the train and started making her way through the damp station. She slowly made her way to the steps leading to the street above. Reaching the top step, she turned around looking back down at the station. The hairs on the back of her neck suddenly stood on end. She had a feeling of being watched and she hoped it was Sesshomaru coming to help her once again. Not seeing anyone she continued on her lonely trek to her apartment. The same sensations crawled across her skin, glancing over her shoulder once again and not seeing anyone, made her heart start beating a little faster. She knew if someone was following her she couldn't get very far on a broken ankle. She continued on as fast as she could go, the feelings never leaving her. She knew someone was watching her, but whom? Glimpsing her apartment building in the distance, she tried picking up her pace again. She never saw the skate board lying on the ground next to the boy, when her right crutch came down and connected with the board, her body went flying forward. She placed her arms in front of her to break her fall, and hitting the cement, knocked the wind out of her. She lay there struggling for her next breath when she though she heard her name being called.

He stood as soon as the train jerked to a halt. “Come on, come on” he mumbled as he waited impatiently for the doors to open. Once the doors finally opened he sprinted through the station. His heart was racing, but it wasn't due to the exercise, he was beating himself up for missing her. He couldn't believe he was so stupid, he was waiting for her call, and his cell was turned off. Running up the steps he stumbled, he realized he needed to see her. He picked up his pace trying to get to her before she reached home. He rounded the corner and spied her building; he slowed down when he saw a woman fall face first to the sidewalk. Slowing down to a fast walk he saw the crutches sprawled across the sidewalk. “It can't be” he told himself walking closer to the woman. Her face was away from him, but he knew it was her, kneeling down to her he said “Kagome”
She turned her head to the voice, her eyes still closed, not wanting to cry in public. “Yes” she replied weakly, trying to push herself up.
“Just because I missed you on the train, you had to find another way to see me?” he said helping her to her feet.
She opened her eyes quickly and looked at the man holding her. “Sesshomaru” she whispered out. Her eyes grew wide and she threw her arms around him, “I was so scared. I thought someone was following me, I tried to go a little faster and my crutch hit a skate board” she said into his shoulder.
He hugged her tighter and said “I'm sorry, I was trying to get to you before you made it home. Are you alright?”
She still felt as if someone was watching her, but the warmth of his body and his arms wrapped around her made her feel safe. Pulling back to look up at him she grinned and said, “I'm fine, nothing but a few scratches and bumps, but I could use some help getting home.”
He stepped away from her, picked up her crutches and bent to one knee. He waited till she was safely on his back before standing and said “What have I started?”
Holding back a laugh, she rested her chin on his shoulder and said “I think you started it just to hold Me.”
“Is that right?” he said boosting her up to sit higher on his back.
“Yes, now on ward doctor, you have some scraps to look over.” She said holding out her hands in front of him.
He looked at her outstretched hands and noted they weren't badly injured. He gave a crooked smile and said “I do believe I have just what they need.”
She blushed slightly at the thoughts racing threw her head and replied, “I'm sure you do doctor, I'm sure you do.”

He stood in the alley watching as the man bent down to help her up. He almost stepped out of the shadows when he saw him bend to one knee and she crawled onto his back. No one should be holding her like that but me, he whispered.
As soon as they started walking towards her apartment, he followed. He kept himself a safe distance away, but near enough to hear their conversation. Did she say doctor? He watched as they walked threw the apartment building doors. He stood next to the step leading up, I think I'll just stay here and wait for the good doctor to return, he thought to himself. He knew he needed to find out a little more about this doctor before he confronted his woman.

Her apartment was now before them, he stood their relishing in the feeling of her body against his, and he wasn't ready to let her go. “Could you hand me the keys so I could get you in and look you over?” Sesshomaru said with a small smirk.
“Well doctor, I wouldn't mind you looking over my injuries, but my keys are in my back pack and I can't reach them. It looks like you'll have to put me down.” Kagome said holding on a little tighter.
“Just drop the bag on the floor and I'll grab the keys, I don't think your ready to walk.” He said smiling and holding onto her legs a little tighter. “I'm the doctor here, I know what's best. Now drop the bag.” He told her looking over his shoulder.
She dropped the bag to the floor and he bent over, released the hold on one of her legs and opened the pack. He grabbed the keys which happened to be right on top tied to a string and unlocked the door. He opened the door and saw the kitchen to his left and set his patient down on to the counter. He dropped the bag to the floor and turned to her. He reached for her hands and looked over them. “We need to wash them so I can get a better idea of how bad they really are.” He told her turning her body towards the sink and turning on the water. He put her hands under the running water.
She hissed as the water hit her hands, but the way he was washing the grim from her hands sent shivers down her spine. He was gently running his fingers across her palms, she looked up at his face and she was shocked to see the expression. He wasn't even looking at her hands he was staring at her with a look that screamed lust.
He knew he wasn't watching what he was doing, but the feel of her hand and the shiver that went threw her body at his touch, made him look at her. When she looked at him only one thought ran threw his mind he needed to kiss this woman, needed to feel her shiver against him. He leaned closer to her, his eyes only on her full pink lips, wanting to taste them, wanting to find the hidden passion behind them.
She saw him beginning to lean towards her, his eyes on her lips. She couldn't stop herself from leaning towards him. She wanted his lips against hers.
They were only a breath away from their lips finally touching, both holding their breath, waiting for the spark they knew would happen. BEEP, BEEP, BEEP the noise startled them both and instead of lips meeting heads collided. Both eased back in their original positions rubbing the soar spots above their eyes.
“Damn” Sesshomaru said grabbing onto the beeper at his side. He looked at the beeper and back at her. “I'm sorry I have to go.” He said.
“I understand, go we can do this another time.” She said with a half smile.
“We will do this again, Kagome.” He said stepping towards her and placing a quick kiss on her lips and he walked out the door.
She sat on the counter and placed her fingers on her lips. “Oh yes doctor, we will do this again.” She whispered.

He watched the doctor run down the steps out of her building, he followed at a distance. He followed the doctor to the station and followed him onto the train. He sat a few seats away and grabbed a newspaper someone left behind. He would lower the paper every few minutes to stare at the man that was with her. When the man stood to leave the train, he waited till he exited the train and quickly followed. He followed him till he walked into a hospital. He stopped then, he knew it wouldn't be hard to find out this mans name, how many men had that color of hair. “She thinks she is so clever, but not clever enough for me. She will pay for cheating on me!” He said threw his teeth to no one.
Kagome watched his stop come and go. “He must have not got the message” she thought. Glancing down at the shirt she now wore, she was glad he didn't show. She had gotten it from Keade after Rin puked all over her.

Sesshomaru walked threw the hospital doors and stalked up to the desk. “Who the hell beeped me?” He asked the nurse behind the desk.
“Doctor Washio had me beep all the doctors to see how long it would take for them to get here.” She said slowly pushing herself away from the man in front of her.
“You beeped me for nothing!” Sesshomaru yelled.
“I'm sorry doctor, I was just following orders. If it makes you feel any better, you were the first to arrive.” The nurse said with a half smile.
“I don't give a shit, I'm out of here!” He said turning and walking back out the doors. Stopping to look at his watch, he hoped he could make it back to Kagome before she had supper.
