#13: Inuyasha (Sesshōmaru & Kagome)
Prompt: Peek-a-Boo!
Prompt: Peek-a-Boo!
...I see you...
As soon as what Sesshōmaru said sunk in, she became suspicious and asked who he was and what he had done to the real Sesshōmaru. Much to her disbelief and surprise, amusement entered his golden eyes, something she had never witnessed before. Her breath caught in her throat when he smiled at her. He was such a beautiful demon, but when he smiled without the I-am-going-to-kill-you message, she couldn’t help but think many would envy her position at this moment.
“This Sesshōmaru does not jest, Miko.”
She blushed before looking away. “Well...” She fidgeted. “I don’t think you should feel obligated to mate me just because I agree to become Rin’s mother.” Thinking that she might have just insulted him for his attractiveness, she quickly remedied with, “Not that I think you’re not a good potential hus—mate.” Looking back at him, she said, “I would think that your mate would have to be a demoness, not a human, a miko no less.”
Somehow, Sesshōmaru had caught her insecurities as he gave her his word, “This—I will have no one but you, Kagome. While it’s true I should have a demoness as my mate, I refuse to tie myself to an unworthy female.”
Catching his obvious compliment, she flushed red and gazed away. To be seen as a worthy mate to such a lord like him was a huge compliment. Regardless, was she ready to do this with Sesshōmaru? What about Inuyasha? Surely, he would not be happy that she—she shook her head mentally, refusing to let her thoughts go further. Years of his constant verbal and mental abuses were enough. She refused to think about the insensitive hanyou. Coming into decision, she looked up at him. “Why me?”
“Why not you?”
That statement took her by surprise. In the end, she decided to get to know him first.
"Why not you?" - God, I love his statement! he'd just wooed her *squeal*
