More Then 'Just Friends' by Black Mage

Chapter 1

They decided that they where going to have lunch at his house because the cafeteria food was barley eatable. Kagome would be meeting him there along with the rest of their friends, Sango and her boyfriend Miroku, along with Rin and Shippo, Kouga, and his idiot brother and Kagome's current boyfriend Inuyasha. Sesshomaru had to finish a test so he was running late. By the time he got there everybody was already eating. Sesshomaru pulled his black Hummer into the drive behind Kagome's sliver Trail Blazer. He walked into the house and found that Kagome made his favorite oden. But Sesshomaru wasn't hunger so instead he went upstairs to his room. Before he opened his door his nose caught a strange smell. The new girl at Tokyo High, Kagura. She was in Inuyasha's room. Sesshomaru went into his brother's room and found Kagura going through his cd's half naked.

"What are you doing in here?" Sesshomaru asked in his normal neutral tone. Kagura jumped not knowing that someone was inside the room with her.

"Nothing. Inuyasha invited me along but I said I wasn't hunger so he sent me up here." Kagura said.

"Really? He did? Was that before or after you got half naked?"

"It was hot in here so I took some of my cloths off. That's all there is nothing going on between him and me."

"Sure there isn't and since you have failed to notice there is an air conditioner in the window that you can turn on." Sesshomaru said before he walked out.

Instead of going to his room Sesshomaru went downstairs to see his half-wit younger brother Inuyasha. He pulled Inuyasha out of his seat and pushed him through the double doors that lead into the kitchen, while Inuyasha yelled the whole way there.

"Mind telling me what your doing bastard." Inuyasha cursed.

"Mind telling me why Kagura is in your room half-naked?" Sesshomaru questioned

"How the hell am I supposed to know why she's half-naked."

"Well, she's in your room going through all your things."

"Look she was looking a little scared so I invited her along. She said she wasn't hungry so I told her she could go upstairs to my room and listen to some of my cd's that's it. I don't even know why I'm explaining any of this to you anyway." Inuyasha said just before he stormed off back into the dining room.

Sesshomaru went back upstairs to his room and decided to play his favorite Slayer CD Reign In Blood. He inserted the cd and it started pounding the most demonic sound into his room filling he head with crazy ideas. He opened his notebook and started to right some lyrics. His fender guitar was on its stand in the corner of the room. He wrote many lyrics yet he never dared to play them in front of people. There was a knock at the door but he didn't answer it. Kagome paused a second before she opened the door. She saw Sesshomaru sitting on his bed with the notebook that she knew had his lyrics in them. She went over to the bed to see what he had written. When Sesshomaru felt the weight on the bed he closed the notebook and looked up to see Kagome staring at him.

"What are you doing up here? There is still some oden downstairs. Do you want me to heat you up some and bring it up?" Kagome asked.

"Nothing really. And no thank you." Sesshomaru said.

"What's wrong?"

"Nothing."

"You're a horrible liar. You know that, right?"

Sesshomaru laughed. "Really nothings wrong just kinda tired."

"Why don't you take a nap?"

"Why should I?"

"You said you where tired."

"Doesn't mean I want to take a nap."

"Come on Sesshie. Just lay down for a bit."

"Will you lay down with me?"

"Course. I'm kinda tired to." Kagome said as she laid down on Sesshomaru's bed and curled up next to him.

"Fine I'll lay down for a bit." Sesshomaru said as he slides down on his bed a little bit and closes his eyes. And when his head hit the pillow he was out.

Sesshomaru woke up about two hours later. With a note on the side of his pillow that read:

Sesshie,

Went back to school with everybody else. You looked so tired when you came home and you looked so peaceful in your sleep I didn't want to wake you up. I'll bring your homework back with me. See ya later.

Kagome

"Great." Sesshomaru huffed as he got out of bed. There was still about another hour left of school, no sense in going back. Sesshomaru went back to his bed to try and find his lyric notebook. He found it on his desk, and it was open to one of his songs. There was a side note on the page that wasn't Sesshomaru's writing. It said: this is a really good song. Need you to play it for me sometime. Kagome. P.S. I love it.

"Great. I can't believe Kagome read this song. She wasn't supposed to read it at all." Sesshomaru thought as he flipped a few pages to a new page. He started writing about everything and nothing in general. The hour went by without much notice. It wasn't until Sesshomaru caught the scent of Kagome that he knew anybody was here.

Kagome knocked on Sesshomaru's door hoping that he was up. When she got no answer she went in. Sesshomaru was sitting on his bed writing as usual.

"Hey, Sesshie." Kagome said with a smile.

"Hey." Sesshomaru responded but didn't look up.

"What are you writing about this time?" Kagome asked.

"Betrayal." Sesshomaru answered.

"Ow. Who would betray the great Sesshomaru Tashio?"

"You."

"Me?"

"Yes, you. You promised you wouldn't look at my lyrics."

"Oh, that. Well it was on the floor so I picked it up the title caught my attention so I read it. It was really good. Can you play it for me?"

"Why would I play it for you?"

"Because I'm your best friend and if I ask anything from you I'll usually get it."

"Really. Well for that answer I'm not going to play it."

"Please Sesshie please play it. It was wonderful on paper now make it magical with your singing. I know for a fact that you have a great voice."

"I don't want to."

"Please, please, please."

"Fine get my guitar for me."

"Thank you."

Song

"That was beautiful." Kagome said.

"Thanks. It still needs some more work on it but so far it's okay."

"Well I think it was just fine the way it was."

"I guess it was okay but I will never play this song or any other song that I right in front of anybody but you. You do know that, right?"

"'Course I do that's why I love it when you play them for me."

"Where's Inuyasha. I thought that you might be with him by now."

"He said he had to stay after for something. He was kinda vague about it."

"Interesting."

"Why's that?"

"I don't know how you trust that lying baka so much."

"He's not a lying baka he's your brother."

"Which I hate."

"You can't hate your brother."

"Yes I can."

Just as Kagome was about to respond Sesshomaru heard Inuyasha coming in the front door. Kagome went running when she heard Inuyasha coming through the front door. Unfortantly when she got down the stairs she saw Inuyasha kissing the new girl Kagura. Before Inuyasha could tell that Kagome was even in the room Kagome ran back upstairs to Sesshomaru's room. When she got into the room she couldn't even close the door before she burst into tears. Sesshomaru went to Kagome and gave her a hug and tried to comfort his distraught friend. Kagome kept mumbling things into Sesshomaru's shirt. And although Sesshomaru couldn't quite make them out he knew that they where about Inuyasha. He had smelt when Kagura came in and he also sensed the lust that was coming off of her and his idiot brother. Sesshomaru lead Kagome and sat her down on the bed. He let go of her to get her some tissues and to close the door. Kagome had calmed down a little bit, but she was still crying. Sesshomaru sat down next to her and gave her the tissues. She said thanks then she blew here nose. By that time she had stopped the tears and was hiccupping a little bit. She told Sesshomaru that she was sorry for crying on him and he told her to forget about the tears and tell him what they where all about.

"Inuyasha's downstairs and he's making out with that new girl, Kagura." Kagome said her voice dipped in sadness.

"Well I'll just go downstairs and give him a piece of my mind."

"Sesshomaru don't. I don't want you to fight with him."

"And why not Kags? He's hurt you." Sesshomaru said trying to keep his anger in check.

Kagome smiled a little at her nickname. "Because you two have enough problems without me adding to them. You don't need to pick a fight with him because of me."

"Kagome... Ahhhhhh you get me so angry some times. You don't think that someone should tell that stupid baka brother of mine that he's hurt you."

"If someone is going to tell him that he hurt me it's going to be me."

"Fine march down there and give him a piece of your mind."

"No." Kagome said.

"No? And why the hell not?" Sesshomaru questioned.

"He's busy. Besides I don't want to see him making out with her."

"Fine. Then he'll come in and see us making out."

"What?? "

"Not for real. I'll tell you when he's going to come in that's when we'll start."

"Sesshie your crazy. No. I'm not going to do that."

"Why the hell not? You want to see him hurt and feel the hurt that he made you fell, right?" Kagome nodded. "Then you need to do this he'll come in, see us and then leave unless he wants to make a scene."

"Fine. I guess I have no other choice."

So the two of them waited and planned what they where going to look like. Sesshomaru heard Inuyasha coming up the stairs but he didn't smell Kagura coming with him. Sesshomaru quickly tossed his and Kagome's hair then he laid her down beneath him. When Inuyasha was to his door Sesshomaru quickly kissed Kagome. Her lips where soft and tender underneath his. Not even imaging that that would have been what it was like to kiss Kagome. Kagome wrapped her arms around Sesshomaru's neck and lend into the kiss. Sesshomaru's hands where just lifting up Kagome's shirt when Inuyasha entered. Sesshomaru to caught up in kissing Kagome that he didn't even register that Inuyasha had come in and quicky left. It was Kagome who actually pulled away from the kiss.

"I think he saw us." Kagome said breathlessly.

"Your probably right." Sesshomaru agreed.

"You can get off me now." Kagome said.

"Oh right. Sorry." Sesshomaru quickly said.

"No worries. Now what? He saw us I'm sure where do we go from here?"

"No idea."

"Well do we pretend that where going out or what?"

"No that's a little harsh. Just break up with him."

"Alright. I guess it's for the best. I'll be back later."

And with that Kagome left. Sesshomaru laid back onto the bed and started to write again. It was about 3:30 in the afternoon and he was kinda hungry. It was most likely because he didn't have any lunch or breakfast. So Sesshomaru went downstairs to get some food. They had some instant noodles laying around so he made some. When Sesshomaru was going back upstairs he saw Kagome enter his room and he smelt her tears. Sesshomaru quickly went up to his room to see what happened. When he got to the door he stopped. He started to think that maybe she needed some time by herself. But he quickly discarded the thought and went in. Kagome was laying on his bed crying into his pillow. Sesshomaru set the noodles down and gathered Kagome up in his arms. She clung to him like her life depended on it. Sesshomaru was mumbling things about how it was going to be okay and stuff like that. After about 10 minutes of Kagome crying her, tears started to slow, then they came to a stop. Her breathing started with hiccupping then soon became deep as she went to sleep. Sesshomaru laid her on his bed and covered her with a sheet. Then he went to see what his half wit baka brother said to her.

Sesshomaru left the room and stormed to the end of the hall where Inuyasha's room was. Sesshomaru didn't bother knocking just entered.

"What the hell did you say to her, Inuyasha?" Sesshomaru asked, his voice icy cold.

"I told her that I never wanted to see her cheating ass again and told her to get out of the house. And if that bitch is still here, I swear Sesshomaru I'm going to through her out of the nearest window." Inuyasha said.

"The only reason that we where even kissing in the first place, Inuyasha, was so that way you would know what if feels like to get hurt. Kagome went downstairs when you came home and saw Kagura all over you and you doing nothing but kiss her back." Sesshomaru said in a semi-calm voice.

"Well it worked. And she kissed me first."

"Well you could have done more to stop her. And Kagome is still in the house and she's staying for dinner just so you know."

"Then I won't be presented at dinner."

"You know for a fact, Inuyasha, that father would never let you miss dinner unless you where sick or in the middle of a big project."

"Well then tell him that I am sick. Sick of seeing you and that cheater."

"You know Inuyasha she has a lot more reason to be mad a you then you do her. And she wanted to break up with you calmly. I doubt she wanted you to make her cry. Baka, do you even think when you do these things, or does it just come so naturally to you?"

"Hey she's the one who was kissing you."

"You're the one who was kissing Kagura before she ever kissed me. Plus, the whole thing was my idea. I thought that she should get you back she didn't even want to do it until I asked her if she wanted you to feel the hurt that she felt."

"Well in case you would like to know it worked."

"Good maybe next time you think of cheating on someone you will remember this. I'm leaving now and don't you dare say anything to Kagome unless your going to say sorry." Sesshomaru said as he left his brother's room.

When Sesshomaru walked into his room, the first thing he saw was that Kagome was up. And she was writing something in his lyrics book.

"Kags what are you doing." Sesshomaru asked in a very calm voice.

"Writing about hurt and betrayal. I kinda am taking your lyrics that you where writing when I came earlier. Sorry."

"It's nothing. Are you okay."

"I've got bit of a headache but all and all I'm fine. Where were you? Oh and your noodles are cold."

"Talking to that half-brained baka brother of mine."

"What did you do?"

"Nothing... Yet."

"Your so bad Sesshie. You shouldn't fight with your brother."

"You fight with your brother don't you?"

"That's different."

"Ohh. How is it different?"

"He's annoying and we don't fight as much as you two do."

"My brother's annoying, and don't say that he's not. Plus, you haven't lived with him your entire life."

"Oh come on Sesshie you had 18 months by yourself."

"Yeah I can't remember those months all I can remember is that baka's crying."

"That's not far."

"It is far. What's not far is that he made you cry when he's that one that should be crying."

"It's nothing."

"Nothing? Kags I talked to the bastard he told you that he 'never wanted to see her cheating ass again'. That's nothing."

"Look I don't wanted to talk about it. Okay can we please drop it?"

"Fine. Oh and your staying for dinner."

"What I can't I don't want to see that prick ever again "

"You're staying for dinner and that's final."

"Why do I have to stay?"

"To show that prick what he missed out on and make him realize that he needs you more then you need him."

"Sesshie can I ask you a question?"

"What?"

"Can I write some lyrics? I really need to get my head start here and writing usually helps. Please???"

"As long as you don't look at my other lyrics. Those are never to be seen by human eyes."

"Thanks. And, don't worry I won't look at your other lyrics. Just flip me to a clear page."

"No problem. Here and don't worry about Inuyasha, he can handle being by himself."

"I'm not worried about him."

"Oh yes you are. Deny it all you want I know that you still care for the bastard."

"You are so mean to me."

"But that's why you love me."

"Of course. Who couldn't love the great Sesshomaru Tashio?"

"Many people just don't see my potential."

"Potential? What potential? You don't have any of that you already have way to much shit as it is you don't need potential."

"If you say so. Father will be home within the hour and dinner is at seven. Make sure that you call your mother so that way she knows that your going to stay for dinner. I don't want to feel her anger again."

"When have you ever felt my mother's anger?"

"Remember seventh grade how you stayed over that one night and you didn't call or tell your mom that you where staying over and she was sick with worry. Well that day I got a huge ass lecture about that if your going to be staying for anything that you where going to call her. Trust me your mother is very scary when she's pissed or protecting you or your brother. That's one side of your mother that I don't plan to see ever again."

"Really? Then maybe I won't call her and I'll get to laugh when she yells at you again."

"Hey you still owe me for you looking into my notebook and making me sing that song. Plus, if you wouldn't call your mother I would and I would tell her that you refused to call her yourself."

"Fine I'll stay but after dinner I'm going home."

"Why I don't think your mom would care if you stayed the night and my dad won't care either."

"I'll need cloths."

"I'll drive you home and you can get whatever you want."

"Fine but only for tonight. Plus my grandpa's birthday is tomorrow so I can't stay."

"Fine by me. Just for the night. Now why don't we swing over to your house now and get you your cloths and tell your mom so she won't have to worry."

"Let's go."

Five minutes later they where on the road to Kagome's house. On the way there they listened to Slayer's CD, Christ Illusion. When they got to her house, Kagome and Sesshomaru both went inside and Kagome found her mother in the kitchen. She asked if it would be okay to have dinner and spend the night at Sesshomaru's and she told Kagome that it would be fine. So Kagome and Sesshomaru went upstairs to Kagome's room to get her things for the night. She got her Jack the rabbit skelanimal pj bottoms and her Nightmare Before Christmas tank top. Then she went to her closet and got her black and purple Tripp jeans and her Courpses Bribe T-shirt. Then she got her black Converses, a pair of sock, bra, and underwear and put them all in her black sports bag. Then she went her bath room to get her toothbrush and hair brush. After that she was all ready to go. Kagome said goodbye to her mother and they left.

On the way back to Sesshomaru's place Kagome changed the CD to Disturbed's 10 thousand fists. When they got back Sesshomaru's father was back and dinner was just about to be served. The dinner conversation was alright at best. After dinner Inuyasha, Sesshomaru, and Kagome went upstairs to get some homework done. Kagome presented Sesshomaru with all of his homework and let him copy down her notes. By the time both of them where finished with their homework it was close to nine o' clock.
