Prompt from Stella Mira’s Soundtrack Challenge #28: Double Story
Kagome didn’t try to fight him, but her worry didn’t lessen. Where was Sesshomaru? Why wasn’t he here?
“But, Sesshomaru—“
“Don’t you trust me? If he was hurt or in danger, I would tell you immediately.”
She subsided, relaxing against him. “I do trust you.”
“I would hope so. You are very dear to me, Kagome. I would hate for you to think poorly of me.”
Thinking he merely flirted per usual, she didn’t comment, and instead, changed the subject.
“I feel stiff. Though the medicine has worked wonders on the pain, I need to stand and move around.”
