Rurouni Kenshin Fan Fiction / InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ A Travel Through Time ❯ Jealousy Or Envy ( Chapter 7 )

"Very interesting. But you must tell me now why you have taken me in." He looked over at her which she now had a tint of red over her cheeks.

"Umm…ok. I guess I just wanted to be nice. You didn't seem like you were in trouble or helpless, but confused so you could say I let you stay because I think you need to get your head cleared up." She gave him a half smile.

Jealousy?

~One Week Later Back At the Spring~

"Sesshomaru, are you happy?" Kaoru asked sipping her tea she had brought for the picnic they were on.

"I really can't say." He too sipped his tea. "I really am happy here, but I'm also disappointed to know that I can never go back."

"Flashback~

"Kaoru I'm going out I won't be long." Sesshomaru told the young girl who was making lunch.

"Ok." She called to him and he was gone.

He ran back to the place where he had first got to her time. But by the time he got there it was already gone and two days have only passed by.

"Damn. Now what am I supposed to get back to Rin? She'll be so angry with me. But there's no way to go back now. I'm screwed." He sighed and leaned against the same rock from when he got there and rested.

~End of flashback~

"Sesshomaru are you ok?" Kaoru was beginning to worry since he hadn't been listening to a word she was saying. After snapping another finger in front of her he came back down to earth.

"Huh?" He said shaking.

"You were day dreaming." She giggled to him.

"Oh."

"Hey, I've been meaning to ask you something but could I look at your face a little closer not to be rude or anything I just like that tiny purple thing that's on your forehead and I really never got to see what it was." She looked away not wanting to be embarrassed by asking him such a strange question.

"Yes." He calmly answered.

Jumping in joy she leaned on her knees to get a better look at him since he was so tall.

~At the Dojo~

"Kaoru-dono and that Sesshomaru as he calls himself have been gone an awful long time, I'm getting a little worried about her safety, she's never out this late unless she's with me." Kenshin wasn't exactly worried he just said that to hide the fact that he was jealous of Sesshomaru and mad that Kaoru didn't ask him to have lunch with her like she always did.

"I know I said I wouldn't interfere, but this is ridiculous, I'm going." He picked up his sword and ran to the spring.

~Back to the Spring~

Almost there he stopped and walked. Not wanting to get caught he hid behind a large bush that lead to the clearing they were in.

"My my it's a moon how neat." She pushed his bangs out of the way to look at the small crescent shape that laid in the center of his forehead.

"Would like to have one of these but I don't think it would look good on me." She spoke.

"I'm not sure about that, but it is pretty neat to have one, I really didn't notice it until now." He looked up at Kaoru's pale face that was still analyzing his forehead.

Than her face came down now real close to his as she touched the pale purple scratch like marks on his cheeks.

"Wow, what are these they're so cool." She was interested in the way he had looked to not know that she was so close to his face.

"They're…" Before he could answer he smelt a familiar scent not that of Kaoru's but more of a musky man scent mixed with wood and pine.

~~~~~~~~~~

Kenshin had a feeling Sesshomaru knew he was there and would call him any minute but before he did Kenshin noticed what Kaoru was doing and took the wrong idea into his thoughts.

"That bastard, now he's trying to take my woman! I won't let him!" Gritting his teeth together he leaped from the bushes.

"Get away from her you bastard!" He yelled. Sesshomaru grabbed the still looking Kaoru who didn't notice Kenshin was there and Jumped over Kenshin.

"Stay still!" He demanded charging for Sesshomaru again. But all he did was dodge everything he swung at him.

Pushing Kaoru aside who was now trying to figure out what was wrong with Kenshin got out of the way.

Pushing from the tree Kenshin tried to hit Sesshomaru again who this time moved behind him. But before Kenshin could react Sesshomaru pulled out his sword and pointed it at him. Then a pink glow came from the end sending electric shocks into Kenshin's body sending him forward.

"Huh?" Kaoru gasped at such power Sesshomaru's sword held.

"Come I shall take you back, this man obviously won't leave me alone unless I leave and I have no reason to fight him. So once your there I will leave from here."

Kaoru only nodded and walked with him back to the dojo which he knew Kenshin would already be there waiting since that's where he sent him.
