Unexpected Guest

AUTHOR'S NOTE! I'm sooooooooo sorry for not updating. I thought that I had uploaded this chapter weeks ago and then I was looking through my stuff and I realized I hadn't so……SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!

FoxLuvr: I haven't exactly figured out how Sesshoumaru got to this time either to tell the truth. Most of my story I just write as I go. I never know the end until I get there. And yeah, I never liked Hojo, so I figured I might as well make him a creep.

Naruto x Ana-ki: I will tell you the same thing I said last chapter. I am not taking this story fast as all my others have been. Any intimacy that occurs will be further into the story. There is a tiny bit of fluff in this chapter. But don't get excited…its just a little.

smiling.sister: what is your story called? I don't know when I'll have time, but I would love to read your story.

Dragon Dagger: Well, you have to remember that Kagome is the only thing is knows in this world. If he kills her, he has no one. She is the only thing connecting him back to his home. And she is also the only one capable of returning him to his home. So, he has to make sure he stays on her good side, not because he wants to, but because he has no other choice.

Kyrstalmaze: maybe…..maybe not…..you'll just have to wait and see.

daydreamer99: maybe….maybe not…..you'll just have to wait and see……XD

whimsy007: That's something that will be explained later. There is a reason she didn't ask about him, but I can't tell you what it is at this moment. You'll just have to wait and see. Also, I am well aware that Sesshoumaru has tried to kill Inuyasha on numerous occasions. I just chose to word it so that I could ease Ayuri's character into the idea of Sesshoumaru. I didn't want to have to write her flippin out cuz he's the perfect killing machine.

Chapter 8: Of Rivers and Stones

“That was great!” Kagome said as they walked out of the theater, “did you like it Sesshoumaru?”

“This Sesshoumaru thought it was acceptable,” he replied, ignoring Kagome's disbelieving stare, “But how did they get the picture that big?”

“To tell you the truth I don't really know,” she said, scratching her chin as she thought about it. “It has something to do with the way they project it onto the screen.”

“Hnnnnn…”

“So, shall we go home? The tub is calling my name…and I don't want to keep it waiting.” She smiled at him and ran ahead a little ways to the door.

“Very well,” They walked outside and down the block to an alley where Kagome could get on Sesshoumaru's back without necessarily being seen.

“Wow,” Kagome said as he stood back up and took off towards the shrine, “I have really missed this. This is most definitely the best way to travel.” She smiled and leaned back, giggling as the wind whipped her face.

“Hmmm…this Sesshoumaru has to agree this is better than that cage on wheels.”

Kagome laughed, “Wow, you're even faster than Inuyasha.”

“Of course,”

“You run a whole lot smoother too. With Inuyasha I could feel it every time he landed.”

“You were expecting something less?”

She laughed again and leaned her head on his shoulder, watching as they practically flew over the rooftops of Tokyo. “I will never get tired of this feeling,” she said as he leapt across the highway.

“Hnnn…” he mumbled, silently enjoying the way she was pressed up against him. `No wonder Inuyasha let her do this.' He slowed down a little, suddenly not as eager to get home.

When they were about halfway to the shrine Kagome once again leaned against his shoulder and said softly, “Sesshoumaru,” he `hnnn'd' and she sighed, “Do you wanna go do something instead of going home?”

“Like what?” he said, slowing to a stop on top of a building.

“Well, I know somewhere we could go that you would really like,”

“Is that so?”

“It is so. Wanna go?”

“Which way?”

“It's 20 miles east of Tokyo.”

“Ok, hold on,” he said, taking to the sky. His cloud formed under then and he smirked when she gasped.

“I had completely forgotten you could fly!” Kagome said breathlessly.

He merely smirked and took off in the direction of the place Kagome had spoken of.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Kagome! I'm home!” Ayuri yelled as she opened the door. She frowned when no one replied and turned to her date. “I guess they're not back yet. Come on, I'll get us something to eat.” They walked into the kitchen and Ayuri smirked at him, “Is ice cream ok?”

“That is fine.” Kai watched as Ayuri spooned some ice cream into a bowl and walked over to join him at the table. “Do you mind me asking who that was with your friend?”

“Huh?” Ayuri said looking at him for a second then recognition hit and she smiled, “h you mean Sesshoumaru.” She missed the way Kai's eyes widened considerably for a second. “His brother used to be a friend of Kagome's, and he's kind of in a jam right now. So, he's living with me and Kagome until he gets back on his feet. Why?”

“Oh I just thought he looked familiar that's all.”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
”This is where I was going to bring you that night at the club.” Kagome said as they flew over the park gates. “I figured it would make you feel more at home.”

“It does,” he said, looking around, “this Sesshoumaru had assumed that there were no more places like this. I am glad I was wrong.”

“Yeah, I come out here a lot. It very relaxing and it helps me think.”

“It is also not noisy.” Kagome laughed and slid off his back once he had kneeled. She walked past him to a small river, enclosed in the trees. She smiled at him as she took off her shoes and rolled up her pants. The he watched as she waded into the water, squealing at its temperature. “What are you doing?” the stoic demon asked as she picked up what looked to be a small stone from the river.

“I'm skipping rocks,” she said, bending over so that she was parallel to the water. She smiled once more at him before throwing the rock over the water, it skipped twice.

“Why?”

Kagome looked at him as if he had grown a second head, “You mean you've never skipped a rock before?” He shook his head and she motioned for him to join her in the river. He didn't budge. “Come on Sesshoumaru,” she pleaded, picking up another rock, “its fun, you'll like it. I promise.” She threw another rock and this time it skipped 4 times.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“I wonder what's taking them so long,” Ayuri said as they walked into the den to watch another movie. “They should have gotten back way before us.” She sat down on the couch and turned on the TV.

“Don't worry about it. I'm sure they're fine.” Kai smiled at her and sat down beside her.

“I know, but I just feel out of the loop.”

“Don't worry; they'll get here when they get here. Let's just sit back and find a movie to watch, and by the time it's done they'll probably be here.”

“Ok,”

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“Whoa! That's so not fair!”

“What do you mean? This Sesshoumaru is always fair.”

“Ha! Yeah right! `Never skipped a rock' my foot! How did you do that?!”

“This Sesshoumaru is a quick learner,” he said, throwing another rock and watching as it skipped all the way down the river out of sight.

“My turn!” Kagome said, leaning over to pick up another rock. Suddenly she slipped on a rock and plunged headfirst into the water.

Sesshoumaru knelt next to her as she came up sputtering, checking to make sure she was ok. He raised one of his large brows as her laughter slowly filled the air. “I did not realize you were so graceful Kagome.”

“Ha Ha very funny!”

Sesshoumaru watched as she wiped the water off of her face. She suddenly smirked and before he knew what was happening her hand snuck under him and yanked him down into the river. He sputtered and growled lightly at her as he sat up in the water. She burst out laughing and he growled again, “You dare mock this Sesshoumaru!?” He shifted them so that she was under him, his arm around her shoulders to keep her from going under water. Looking down at her he continued to growl as he contemplated his next move. Blaming her and their position, he abruptly stopped growling and leaned down to capture her lips with his. The small woman in his arms moaned and leaned into him, wrapping her arms around his neck as she deepened the kiss.

He growled his approval and picked her up, carrying them over to the bank. Once they were out of the water he once again captured her lips in a kiss. He ran his tongue over her bottom lip and she mumbled something incoherently before letting him in. After a few minutes he pulled back and she moaned in protest as he looked down at her.

Kagome looked up into his molten orbs of amber and smiled. She started to say, `that wasn't supposed to happen,' until he started to growl viciously. So instead she mumbled, “What?”

“Whoa! Hojo wasn't kidding!” said a voice from behind them, alerting Kagome to the reason for Sesshoumaru's growl.

“What are you doing here Kevin?” She said, unconsciously leaning further into Sesshoumaru's embrace, who had moved them to a sitting position.

“Just out for a little midnight stroll,” she said, looking suggestively at Kagome, “and you?”

Sesshoumaru growled and moved Kagome behind him. He didn't like the way this human was affecting Kagome. As soon as she had heard his voice her entire body had tensed. Still growling, he started to think of a good way to kill the man so they could leave.

“Well,” Kevin said, looking at Kagome over Sesshoumaru's shoulder, “not that this isn't thrilling…but I have a friend in the hospital whim I need to see. Good night Kagome.” And with that he turned and left, winking at Kagome as he went.

After he was gone Kagome crawled out from behind Sesshoumaru and into his arms. “Can we go home now Sess?” she whispered, trying to bury herself as far into his embrace as she could.

He nodded and picked her up the same way he had at the hospital, with her straddling his front. He wanted to go and kill that worthless human for disturbing her, but that could wait. Right now Kagome needed to go home, and that was more important.
