So Beautiful

“A real friend is someone who you can sit in complete silence with and still walk away feeling like you just had the best conversation of your life.”


The next morning the clearing they had slept in was blanketed in fog. Kagome shivered in her sleeping bag the early morning air was cool for summer. Birds chirped as the sun made its appearance and kagome forced her eyes open and looked around finding herself alone.

Suddenly the forest became eerily quiet and before Kagome could react sesshomaru and a large black boar demon charged into the clearing Sesshomaru trying to push it back his feet and body sliding with the boar’s own pushing force. Kagome could only watch as they fought. Sesshomaru took out tokijin and ran it into the pigs gut before sending an attack through it the boar demon squealed loudly before falling and trapping Sesshomaru’s arm and sword underneath him. The boar was not dead yet he stood and flopped back down over and over in an attempt to break Sesshomaru’s arm not caring that he re-stabbed himself every time he did so. Kagome had seen enough she grabbed a long stick and began channeling her powers into it and used it to blast the boar into pieces before she falling unconscious.

Sesshomaru stood and flicked boar corpse off his person before making his way over to Kagome and sat down beside her his arm hurt...a little. Kagome came to and found Sesshomaru looking at her like she was a boil on the butt of his own little world. She sat up and smiled her sweetest most innocent smile at him. Sesshomaru stood and began walking out of the area clearly expecting her to follow. Kagome gathered her things slipped her shoes on and took off after him.

“What’s your problem all of a sudden? Are you mad that I told you not to kiss me anymore?” Kagome asked when she caught up to him.

“I have no problem, and why would I be angered about not being allowed to kiss you?” Sesshomaru stated still walking forward no emotions on his face. Kagome glared at him.

“You’re a jerk! And I’m leaving.” Kagome said before turning left and running into the forest. She was angry and insulted and she had no clue as to where she was going and the farther she walked the less sunlight that came through the trees. “Okay Kagome this isn’t one of your brightest ideas, okay lets see you’re lost in a dark creepy forest and everything looks the same.” she said to herself. She started getting scared when scurrying noises started up they seemed to be coming from all over she could hear her own heart beating in her ears she fell to her knees crying, this place looked so similar to the clearing her friends were slaughtered in. Sesshomaru stepped into the clearing right behind her, he could smell fear in her scent. Kagome turned around to come face to face with the cold demon lord. She stood and walked over to him.

“I hate you...I HATE YOU, YOU SHOULD HAVE LET ME DIE!!” she yelled as she hit him with her tiny fists sesshomaru wrapped his arms around her and held her as she tried to free herself from him before finally giving up and burying her face in his chest and cried. Sesshomaru looked around the clearing it looked familiar to him and he realized why this outburst of hers occurred. He picked her up and carried her away from the place. “I’m sorry, and I don’t hate you I just don’t know what came over me.” Kagome said meekly.

“I believe it’s called grief.” he stated still carrying her.

“I thought you said the next time you had to carry me you would personally deliver me to Naraku? you've carried me twice since you said that.” Kagome stated with a smile on her face. Sesshomaru looked down at her.

“You still don’t know where we are going. How do you know that I am not taking you to him?” he asked with an arched eyebrow. Kagome looked up at him and smiled.

“Because you like me that’s how I know.” she answered. They continued in silence until they left the forest there Sesshomaru put Kagome on her feet. “Wow I’ve never seen so many different colored flowers in one field before.” Kagome said as she walked into the field her hands brushing the tops of the plants.

“This field is Rin’s favorite resting place.” Sesshomaru stated as he watched her twirl in the large flower bed. Kagome walked back over to Sesshomaru and grabbed his hand and lead him to the middle of the field where she then sat and pulled him down with her. They just sat there not saying anything and it was alright because it was a good silence.
