Teddy Bear by AmberEyes

A helping hand

AN : I don't own Inuyasha

  Kagome slumped down farther into the mud puddle. The new boy, Inuyasha had been teasing her incessantly all day. It had started when he cut in front of her while she was in line for the slide. She tried to tell him that cutting wasn’t allowed but he had just shoved her down into the sand. Then, while he sat behind her when the art lady came in, he put glue in her hair. No matter how much Kagome had cried and begged him to stop, he wouldn’t. His mind seemed to be set on making her miserable. And now, here she was sitting in a mud puddle, covered in lord knows what, because he had tripped her into it after he stole her teddy bear.

    Sobbing, Kagome tried to pick up all of her scattered things that lay forgotten in the puddle. Inuyasha hadn’t even bothered to close her backpack when he stole Teddy. A pale hand stretched across her vision and began to pick up her papers, there were purple lines stretched across the wrist bone. When Kagome looked up she gave an indignant cry, “Go away Inuyasha, I wont let you steal anything else from me!”

    Kagome scrambled to get up and stop crying. Sesshomaru, shy and ever quiet, looked down at Kagome. “My name is NOT Inuyasha. I’m SESSHOMARU, Inuyasha is my stupid brat of a half brother…and besides, I’m a whole year older than him and much smarter.”

    Kagome looked up to see that he was right and that the silver haired boy looked much different than Inuyasha. He had no pointed puppy ears or red robes. This boy, Kagome could tell, was much more dignified. Maybe, just maybe, he would be nice enough to save Teddy for her!

    Well, hello Sesshomaru I‘m Kagome. Will you please help me? Your brother-”

    “Half brother.” Sesshomaru interrupted.
    
    “Right sorry, your HALF-brother…he stole Teddy. My mother, she just gave him to me for my birthday before she had to go away for work again and I love him so much. Could you please get him back for me?”

    Sesshomaru thought about what Kagome asked him to do and decided it would be the right thing to do, returning Kagome’s toy to her. “Fine, but you have to be my friend from now until the end of time!” Sesshomaru declared as he held out his hand so that they could shake on it.

    Kagome couldn’t hold herself back, she gave Sesshomaru the biggest hug he’d ever received while making a promise to him, “Oh Sesshomaru, I’ll always be your best friend, always.”

AN : I'm open to suggestions, I'm not really sure what I'd do if it was a chapter story, so for now its a oneshot. critiquing is welcome, but please be gentle this is the first..well anything I've ever written for a public site=]
