The door was unlocked, almost as if he had been expecting her. Kagome let herself in and was greeted enthusiastically by Taka. The Shepherd leapt off the couch and ran to her, jumping up on his hind legs and placing his paws squarely on her shoulders. She giggled as he licked her face. She scratched him behind the ears before he trotted away, slipping out of the open sliding doors. Kagome followed him and found Sesshoumaru out on the balcony, looking out over the city with a cigarette hanging out of his mouth.
“Sesshoumaru?”
He did not answer. Kagome approached him tentatively.
She had spent a lot of time thinking about him. She had thought about all he said, and had mourned her friends until she couldn’t find the will to be sad anymore. She realized that she had the strength to move on without forgetting her past. In fact, she intended to help a piece of her past move on with his life.
She was going to live and laugh, and she was taking Sesshoumaru along for the ride whether he liked it or not.
She put her hand on his shoulder, and he grumbled but did not move. Her smallest finger laid atop of his blackened hair, and Kagome hoped she would earn his trust enough to see the silver she had once known.
“Unhand me, miko,” he said, without real malice. Kagome let her hand linger for a moment before she pulled away from him. She moved to stand beside him, crossing her arms on the railing. Obviously her desire for his friendship was not yet mutual, but she would change that. He wouldn’t stand alone while the world changed around him, and neither would she.
“I’m sorry I slapped you the other day,” she said.
“Hnn,” he mumbled. She took his mumble as an accepted apology.
Kagome felt something brush against her leg. She look down to find Taka nearly sitting on her feet, his tail wagging. He seemed to smile at her as he panted. A grin tugged at her lips.
“You know,” she said, nudging Sesshoumaru’s forearm slightly with her elbow. The taiyoukai sidestepped, slowly edging out of her reach. Kagome ignored the gesture. “Taka looks like he wants to play. Does he like playing fetch?”
Sesshoumaru’s eyebrow raised at the suggestion, while Taka spun around in circles and barked to give his approval.
