Toxic Love

Sesshoumaru was seated in Koga’s office. “Checking up on me?” Koga asked him.
“Maybe,” Sesshoumaru said as his eyes turned back to gold.
“Shouldn’t he be in school?” Koga asked him.
“Not right now, he needs to be tutored.” Sesshoumaru told him.

“And you’re going to be the one to teach him?” Koga asked with amusement lacing his voice.

“What is so funny?” Sesshoumaru asked him.
“Just that you don’t have the patience to teach anyone,” Koga told him.
"I taught you didn’t I?" Sesshoumaru asked him.
"Point taken," Koga responded as he sat down at his desk.
"Is that first aid kit still in here?" Sesshoumaru asked him.
"Yeah." Koga said as he pulled a clear box out of his top drawer and handed it to Sesshoumaru. Sesshoumaru stood up to leave. "Get back to work." He said to Kouga as he left his office.

Sesshoumaru walked back to his office and sat down in his chair.
"Why did you leave?" Naraku asked him.


"I had to get the first aid kit." Sesshoumaru said to him. "Come here." Sesshoumaru ordered. Naraku walked over to him and Sesshoumaru cleaned the cut and put a band aid on Naraku’s finger. "There; be more careful." Sesshoumaru ordered. Naraku looked at what was on Sesshoumaru's computer.
"Are those the stocks?" Naraku asked him.
"Yes." Sesshoumaru said. "But what I am concerned about now is your education, Tonight when we get home we will begin working on your math." Sesshoumaru told him.
"Do we have too?" Naraku whined.
"Yes, I want to see what you're weak in." Sesshoumaru answered, while leaving no room for argument.
Naraku sighed; he was not looking forward to math. Sesshoumaru gave Naraku some papers that he didn’t need and let him put them in the paper shredder. Koga walked into Sesshoumaru’s office. "I see the kid gets to play and the rest of us have to work." he said as he handed Sesshoumaru some papers.
"Hey kid, want some ice cream, you don't want to spend all day in this office with him do you?" Koga asked him.

“No thanks, I’d much rather stay here." Naraku told him.
"Okay, suit yourself, but the offer still stands." Koga told him.
"Don’t you have work to do?" Sesshoumaru asked Koga.
"Not at the moment." Koga said to him as he sat down. Sesshoumaru sighed.
"Koga, go to lunch or something." Sesshoumaru told him.
"Why? It’s only 10:30." Koga told him.
"Koga, you’re beginning to annoy me." Sesshoumaru told him as he threw a paper ball at him.

“I just can't help it you always act like you hate kids, now you’re all kind." he said
"I'm kind to Naraku and Bankotsu you on the other hand are getting on my nerves." Sesshoumaru said to him.
"Fine I was just trying to be nice. I'm go on a coffee break; maybe Ayame will give me some time since I'm not wanted here." Koga said as he stood up. "Enjoy him while he's young. The moment he hits 15 he’s going to go on so many dates." Koga said to Sesshoumaru as he left his office.

Sesshomaru stood up and closed the door and sat back down.

"What’s a date?" Naraku asked Sesshomaru. "Uh, something you’re not going to do for a very long time." Sesshomaru told him. "Oh, is that were sex comes in at?" Naraku asked him.
"Eh, to a point…" Sesshomaru responded.
"What is sex?" Naraku asked him. Sesshomaru looked at Naraku.
"Huh...” Sesshomaru said.

"Naraku wouldn't you like to look at a movie?" Sesshoumaru asked him.
"Sure." Naraku said to him with a smile.
"I'm going to kill that wolf." Sesshoumaru said to himself as he turned the TV on and found the cartoon channel for Naraku.
Sesshoumaru picked up his phone and made some calls while Naraku looked at the TV. He looked at his watch; it would soon be time for lunch, he wondered how Bankotsu was adjusting in school.
"Kira, I’ll have two of my usual. Wait…get one without honey." he informed the secretary, “and milk for him," he added.
"Yes sir." she said and hung up the phone.
"Naraku do you have any photos of your parents, or of yourself and Bankotsu?" Sesshoumaru asked him.
"If there are any, Bank has them in his room." Naraku told him. "I think there are some baby pictures in there as well." he added.


"Okay, I will have to look into that." Sesshomaru told him.
"Okay, well I can ask Bankotsu about pictures." Naraku told him. Sesshoumaru nodded his head. "So how come you didn’t answer my question?" Naraku asked him.
"What question?" Sesshomaru asked him.
"About sex," Naraku bluntly replied.
"I will answer that question when you are older." Sesshomaru told him.
"I could just ask Koga." Naraku said to him.
"How about that ice cream," Sesshomaru changed the subject.
"Ok but one day you’re going to have to tell me. I saw Bankotsu with these magazines one time, but he pushed me out the room." Naraku told him as he followed him out of the office.
Koga was busy talking to Ayame when Sesshoumaru walked over to him. "I'm going to get ice cream for Naraku and when I get back I’d stay in my office if I were you." Sesshoumaru told Koga.

Koga gulped.

Sesshoumaru took Naraku to get some ice cream. "Really shouldn’t let you have this, before your lunch." Sesshoumaru told him.” Let’s see, you’re going to have to go to the doctor, dentist." Sesshoumaru told him as he watched Naraku eat his Chocolate chip mint ice cream.
Naraku put his spoon down got out of his seat and climbed into Sesshoumaru’s lap.
"Nooo, I don't like needles they hurt." Naraku cried as he buried his head in the crook of Sesshoumaru's neck.

"Well...uh..." Sesshomaru said as he placed his hands on Naraku's back. "I didn’t say anything about needles." Sesshomaru told him as he rubbed his back.
"Every time Bankotsu or I go to the doctor, we get shots." Naraku told him as he wrapped his arms around Sesshoumaru’s neck.
"Well, vaccines come in other forms." Sesshomaru told him. Naraku sniffed and looked at Sesshomaru. "Like what?" Naraku asked him.
"Well, pill form, liquid, spray." Sesshomaru told him.
"Oh" Naraku said as he began to wiggle in Sesshoumaru’s lap.

Sesshoumaru growled low. "Naraku finish your ice cream before it melts." Sesshoumaru ordered of him. Naraku looked at Sesshoumaru before getting out of his lap.
"Thank you for the ice cream." Naraku said to him.
"You’re welcome," Sesshoumaru said.
After Naraku finished eating his ice cream, Sesshoumaru took him back to the office. "I'm sleepy." Naraku said as he held Sesshoumaru's hand as they crossed the street.

"Well you can sleep in the office on the couch." Sesshoumaru said to him.
"Mr. Taisho, your father called while you were out. He said he wants you to come over for dinner." Kira told him.


“Call him back and tell him that I would like to spend at least one dinner alone with my sons before any other plans are made." Sesshomaru told her in a toneless voice.
"Sure, I'll do that right now." Kira said as she picked up the phone. Sesshomaru and Naraku walked back into the office and Sesshomaru closed the door. Naraku walked over to the couch and lay down. Sesshomaru sat down in his chair.

Bankotsu was in his class doing class work. "Here I am in class and Naraku is having time of his life.. He thought to himself. "Hey Bankotsu want to come over to my house after school?" The boy asked him. "I don't think my dad will let me." Bankotsu said to him.
"Your dad is Sesshoumaru Taisho right?"
"Yes Hiten" Bankotsu said.
"Well call him now, use your cell phone." Hiten told him.
"He didn't give me one." he told Hiten.
"He didn’t give you a cell phone?" Hiten asked him.
"Must have slipped his mind" Bankotsu said as he slouched down in his chair.
"Damn, I would have at least thought that the Sesshomaru Taisho would give his older son a cell." Hiten said.
"He adopted us." Bankotsu said to him.
"Oh, well then maybe that’s the reason." Hiten said.
"I bet if I ask him he will get me one." Bankotsu said to him.

“Leave the kid alone.” A girl said as she joined the conversation. "My name is Kikyou." "Bankotsu you can use my phone to call him." she said to him as she handed him her phone. "Thanks." Bankotsu said as he took out the number
Sesshoumaru had given him and dialed. "So where's your brother?" Kikyou asked him.
"He's with my dad he gets to stay home, really is a scaredy cat." Bankotsu said not realizing some one had picked up.

Sesshoumaru recognized the voice.

"Well if you come over to my house you won't have to deal with the kid." Hiten told him.

"I rather have my brother with me." Bankotsu said to him.
"The phone isn’t ringing." Bankotsu said as he looked at the phone.
"Is there something I can help you with?" A man's voice asked from the cell.
"Oh, your there; It's Bankotsu I was wondering if I could hang out with Hiten tonight." He said to Sesshomaru.
"Do you really want to?" Sesshomaru asked him.


"Well could I invite him and Kikyou over?" he asked him.
"I said two day notice." Sesshoumaru told him.
“I know. Well can they come over tomorrow? I promise not to bother Naraku while he is studying.” Bankotsu said to him.
“Tomorrow they can come over. Is there anything else you want?” Sesshoumaru asked him.
“Nope, well yeah can I have a cell phone?” he asked him.
“We’ll talk about that when you get home.” Sesshoumaru told him as Naraku woke up rubbing his eyes.
Naraku got off the couch and looked at what Sesshoumaru was eating. “Can’t have that it has honey it” Sesshoumaru told him.
Bankotsu listened as Sesshoumaru talked to Naraku.


"How did you know about the honey?" Bankotsu asked him.
"I know every thing about you two." Sesshomaru told him. "Naraku, yours is in the fridge." Sesshomaru told him.
"Be good in school today and I might just let you have what you want." Sesshoumaru told him and hung up. Naraku walked over to the fridge and got his lunch out.

"So what did he say?" Kikyou asked him.
"He said tomorrow you can come over." he told them.
When School was over Bankotsu was tired he was glad to go home. He was so tired all he wanted to do was go to sleep. Bankotsu walked off the school bus and walked up to the house. He rang the bell.
"Welcome home young master.” The maid said as she let him in.
Bankotsu walked over to the sofa and dropped his bag on the floor. "It sucks being smart." Bankotsu said.
“Hey Bankotsu" Naraku said as he walked into the living room.
"Hi." He said to Naraku.
"You look tired." Naraku said to him.
"I am, and I have a ton of home work; what did you do today?" Bankotsu asked him.
"I had ice cream, watched cartoons and looked at stocks." Naraku told him.
"Lucky you" Bankotsu said as he closed his eyes.
"But now I have to study. Dad wants to see what my weak points are in math." Naraku told him as he walked into the kitchen to get something to drink.
"Then why are you not studying?" Bankotsu asked him.
"I'm just getting a drink and then I am going back up stairs." Naraku told him as he walked out of the kitchen.


"Oh Bankotsu, if you have the photo album dad want to see it." Naraku told him as he went upstairs to work on some problems. Bankotsu sighed. He took his books out and began doing his home work. After Bankotsu finished his math problems, he went upstairs and got the photo album.

"Well least I made two friends in school." he said.

++++

"Finish your work already?" Sesshoumaru asked him as he came in the living room. "Basically, here the photo album, just a few pictures of our parents mostly baby pictures of Naraku and when we had our last shots.
“I’ll tell you now Naraku is going to scream and make you wish you were deaf when he has to go too the doctor, dentist etc.” he told him.

."I'm sure it won’t be that bad." Sesshomaru told him.
"Riiight. Let me know if you still think that after you take him." Bankotsu said to him.
"Tell you what, if Naraku screams at the doctor’s office, I will get you a cell phone, but if he doesn’t you have clean out the pool next time it needs to be cleaned." Sesshomaru told him. "Deal." Bankotsu said.
"What are you two talking about?" Naraku asked them as he walked into the living room.
"Oh, just about an 11 year old going to the doctor." Bankotsu told him.
"You lied to me!" Naraku yelled at Sesshoumaru and kicked him in the leg.
