#06: Inuyasha (Sesshōmaru & Kagome)
Prompt: Bark & Bite
Prompt: Bark & Bite
...xXx...
Kagome sighed for the umpteenth time today. Christmas was one week away, and the apartment had never felt so empty before now that her furry companion was gone. She had to admit that she had grown fond of him. Sōta was upset that his gift for her was taken away, but she laughed and said it was her right to give his gift away. Though she didn’t like it, it was only the right thing to do.
Maru... there was just something about him that pulled her close to him. Now that she thought about it, never did she hear him bark at anyone or anything at all. The most she heard from him was growls that usually gave her strange feelings. As weird as it sounded, she missed them, missed him. Sōta had wanted to get her another dog, but she refused. She knew what he and their mother were trying to do. She was thankful for their concerns, but she was a grown woman and could take care of herself.
A door bell jerked her back from her musings. A small frown marred her face as she felt her way to the front door.
“Who is it?” she asked without opening the door.
“Sesshōmaru Takahashi.”
She sighed in relief and opened the door. With a smile, she greeted, “Good day, Takahashi-sama.”
Sesshōmaru resisted the urge to pull her close and replied, “Good day, Higurashi-san. I believe my brother had told you about this visit.”
Still smiling, she nodded. “Yes.” She opened the door wider to let him in. Once he entered her small apartment, she closed the door behind her. “Please call me Kagome, Takahashi-sama.”
“Then, I believe you should return the gesture by calling me Sesshōmaru.”
The soft blush that covered her face was so adorable that he wanted to kiss her right away.
With a small nod, she once again felt her way to the sofa and sat down. “Would you... would you like something to drink?”
“It won’t be necessary, Kagome.” He didn’t miss the way she shivered as he called her name. “I only need your attention for a few minutes.”
Great story! Different take on the Sesshomaru & Kagome relationship but I love it! :-)
