Mending a broken heart

When Sesshomaru finally found Inuyasha, he saw him sitting at the god tree crying. Sesshomaru's heart went out to him. Inuyasha had always had a hard life and now this happened to him.

"Inuyasha." He said getting Inuyasha's attention.

When Inuyasha heard Sesshomaru say his name he quickly wiped his tears away. There was no way in hell that he was going to let Sesshomaru see him cry. He knew he'd never let him live it down for being so weak.

"What do you want now ya bastard? Did ya come to rub it in my face how much of a disgrace I am?" Inuyasha spat. Sesshomaru sighed as he went to sit next to him.

"This Sesshomaru is not here to fight or judge you brother."

"Then what do ya want then?"

"It's simple. You need me." Sesshomaru said shrugging.

Inuyasha growled. "I don't need anyone! I'm a half breed remember? Half breeds are supposed to be alone. Hell we're not even supposed to exist! You oughtta know, you've said it enough."

"Can we not set aside our past for now Inuyasha?" He said sighing. He knew that Inuyasha wasn't going to make it any easier to try talking to him.

"You expect for me to just forget how you've treated me my whole fuckin life!" Inuyasha yelled. Sesshomaru could hear the hurt in his brothers voice and actually felt regret for how he treated Inuyasha. Even though Inuyasha was only a half breed, he was still his brother.

"I do not expect you to forget how I've treated you. I only ask that we set aside our differences."

"Why?"

"Because like it or not Inuyasha, we ARE family. If Kagome has taught me anything it's that no one deserves to be alone and that family stick together no matter what."

"But why the hell would you even want me around? Did you forget what I just told you guys about the things Kikyo made me do? I'm a monster! A fuckin freak!" Inuyasha said yelling at the end.

"Enough! You are NOT a monster or a freak. I will admit that when I first came here I wanted to throttle you for what you did to Kagome. Now that I know the truth about what that dead priestess did to you, I no longer blame you for anything. I only ask that you help me get Kagome back. I need your help. Please...brother."

"D-do you mean all of that?" Inuyasha asked in shock.

"Yes. I do. I wouldn't say it if I did not mean it. This Sesshomaru never lies."

Inuyasha surprised both himself and Sesshomaru when he threw himself at Sesshomaru sobbing. At first Sesshomaru sat there in shock. He never expected his brother to do that. He felt bad for his little brother. He'd never seen him so miserable. He wrapped his arms around Inuyasha in a tight hug and tried to comfort him.

"Shh. It's alright little brother. I...I am here for you. And I will be from now on. We will get through this together."

"I feel like a bastard for what I did to Kagome."

Sesshomaru sighed. "I'm sure once you explain everything to Kagome that she will forgive you."

Inuyasha snorted. "I doubt that. She probably hates me now. Besides she has you now. She don't need me." He said sadly.

"You know better than anyone that Kagome isn't like that. She doesn't have one hatefull bone in her body and she'd never forget her friends. It is not in her nature."

"Yeah I guess you're right." Inuyasha said as he dried his tears.

"Do you feel better now brother?"

Inuyasha shrugged. "I guess I feel a little better. It will be a while before I'm completly back to normal though. Hey, do you mind not sayin anything about me cryin like a pup to anyone? Cause if you do, I'll kick your pretty boy ass." He said glaring.

"The same goes for you little brother. If you tell ANYONE that I...hugged you and comforted you, I'll pummel you into the ground farther than sit command Kagome can give you." Sesshomaru said glaring back.

"Yeah yeah, whatever." Inuyasha said. They sat there for another hour talking before they decided to head back to Inuyasha's and go to bed.

A/N: I just want you all to know that the next few chapters Sesshomaru and Inuyasha will be a little out of charactor. It's because they're trying to actually have a brotherly relationship.
