“I saved you,” said the silver haired Taiyoukai as he flicked his hand away to clean it of the blood from the youkai he had just killed, “…again.” His golden gaze swept around the area in search of other threats, but found none. “It seems you did rely on Inuyasha for everything.”
Kagome pushed herself up and glared at her dirty skirts, “Not for everything,” she said defensively as she started cleaning her skirt as best as she could with her bare hands, “but he did protect me.”
“You are a miko,” pointed out Sesshomaru evenly. She wasn’t supposed to need protection, from a hanyou no less.
“Untrained,” she said through clenched teeth and huffed when she finally gave up with the skirt. Her outfit was not made for such harsh treatment.
“Inuyasha is gone.” She knew he was. She could no longer feel the dozen, tainted shards imbedded on his body. This was Naraku’s doing. He had taken Inuyasha and was controlling him completely. Inuyasha couldn’t fight so many shards.
“Hn,” was Sesshomaru’s reply. “You owe me,” he added as he turned to her fully, “I saved you.”
“Isn’t this getting boring?” asked Kagome with a scowl as she adjusted the straps of her backpack.
“We made a deal,” reminded Sesshomaru as he crossed his arms over the plate covering his chest, “I—“
“I know! You’ll protect me, but I have to pay…how can I forget?” she shot back with a tired roll of her blue eyes.
Sesshomaru golden gaze hardened, “If you are unhappy with the deal…we can break it. I will simply no longer protect you.”
Kagome growled and started to walk towards North, were Inuyasha had gone a few minutes ago. “You have to save Inuyasha too; honor demands it.”
“This Sesshomaru is not obliged to.”
“Whatever,” said Kagome with a tired sigh, “What do you want now? What do you want to know about the future?”
“Nothing,” said Sesshomaru as he moved towards her and passed her, forcing her to walk behind him, as she should. “As you say, this game gets boring. It amazes me how many times I had to save you in such a short amount of time.”
“Sorry for begin such a weakling,” mocked Kagome half-heartedly. In truth, it hurt her; more so because no one seemed to understand just why she was so weak. It was not her fault there were no more wars on her time…or need for archery. “Then how can I repay you, Sesshomaru-sama?”
Sesshomaru ignored the disrespectful tone, “It is this Sesshomaru’s intention to learn more about the human nature,” he stated stoically.
Kagome frowned. She was lost, “I beg your pardon?” she had no idea what he meant by that. Was he now going to ask her about the human race rather than the future? She really had no problem with that. In fact, it made her feel a lot better. She did not like sharing the future with someone who had the strength to change it; if that was possible.
“No.” Sesshomaru stopped and turned to Kagome. “Release your backpack,” he ordered and after a moment of confusion Kagome obeyed. She remained still, eyes wary. “Human women are known to be great lovers.”
Instantly Kagome flushed, “W-what?! Noo!”
Sesshomaru narrowed his eyes in irritation, “This Sesshomaru has yet to ask anything.”
“My body is out of the deal! I am not making a deal with my body!” cried Kagome, hands coming over her chest protectively.
The inu Lord growled, “This Sesshomaru will not bed a human.”
“Oh,” was all Kagome could say to that and the tension on her shoulders subsided. “You scared me.” she said softly.
“But this Sesshomaru will demand a kiss.”
Kagome blinked several times. “Pardon me?” she asked dumbly.
Sesshomaru, tired of her slow nature, simply moved to her, caught her in his arms and pressed his lips to hers. He felt her stiffen in his arms and he slowly licked her closed lips. He made a humming sound at the taste of her cherry lips and then moved away from her. “It was acceptable.”
Kagome stared up at him in shock, “Y-you kissed me.” she stammered.
“Hn,” was all he said as he shifted her in his arms, “This time you will kiss this Sesshomaru…and this Sesshomaru expects a more passionate kiss miko.” He moved closer to her lips, but did not meet them, and waited.
“You…you saved me once!” cried Kagome, “And you got your kiss already!” she reminded as she tried to escape his hold, “I am not going to kiss you.”
Sesshomaru huffed and kept her close to his body, “This Sesshomaru will take payment in advance from now on…since your reluctance to pay has been noted. If you don’t kiss this Sesshomaru, next time he will not intervene to save you.”
“You must be joking!” cried Kagome, but when his blank face looked at her, she knew he was not lying. Why would he? He didn’t care… “This,,, I don’t love you, Sesshomaru-sama,” she said with a little blush marrying her cheeks.
“You find this Sesshomaru lacking in looks?” He asked with a frown.
It was a first for Kagome. They had been traveling for a week now and this was the first real emotion apart from anger she had seen on him. It allowed her to see a little more…his insecurity even. He was unsure of himself…of his looks. It was totally ridiculous! He was extremely handsome. “N-no,” said Kagome shakily, “Is not that...”
“Then you can kiss this Sesshomaru,” he concluded, “This Sesshomaru has heard humans are always seeking their love, but we are not mating. This Sesshomaru simply wants to taste…a kiss.”
His words were so strange, his request sounded so indecent, but…taken from another perspective…it was so romantic and…likeable. No one had asked her for a kiss, ever, and most kids from her time only took without asking. His asking seemed to be chivalrous…it made her blush again. “I-”
But the Tai took her chin in his hand and moved her closer to his lips, his breath hot on her nose, “Do it,” he demanded.
And she didn’t know why, she obeyed. She opened her mouth and caught his lower lip between both of hers and tasted him. She didn’t expect the soft groan or the hot breath he released, but she would be lying if she said she didn’t enjoy it. Her hands fisted on the front of his haori and his clawed hands went to her head, securing her in place. She stopped, insecure for a moment, but his tongue darted out and teased her lower lip. Instantly she closed the distance again…and kissed him. For real; and enjoyed it.
