The Gift of Giving

The boy took it upon himself to follow us. When I tried to be rid of him Rin insisted that he stay. I sensed no trace of Naraku’s influence left on the boy so I allowed it. He bowed low before me in gratitude, I inclined my head to him and we moved on. Jaken was initially not pleased with the addition, but upon realizing the boy…Kohaku I believe, kept Rin occupied he stopped complaining. I found the boy to be of no real trouble but his behavior was, peculiar at times.

He continually brought things like fresh game, animal pelts and laid them before me like an offering. When I declined them this upset him to the point of groveling like he feared my wrath. Even though I did not show my alarm I was disturbed by this unprovoked reaction.

For the sake of peace, and his sanity, I began accepting his gifts.

This seemed to work for a while but soon the boy appeared to fall into a state of melancholy. When Rin asked him what was wrong he would shake his head, never uttering a word.

One evening after everyone was settled in for the night I stole away to a nearby spring hoping to cleanse my body as well as my thoughts. I had no sooner slipped into a state of relaxation when I scented his approach. Thinking he was moving about to relieve himself or coming to offer another gift of some kind, one could only imagine my surprise when he stepped through the fog completely divested of clothing. Wanting to know the meaning behind his actions, but not wanting to scare him I simply arched an eyebrow at the youth.

He stepped into the steamy water and said, “You think I don’t know you’ve been displeased with all of my gifts.”

Stunned but silent I continued to stare at the boy.

“I know you only throw them away or give them to Jaken when you think I won’t notice.”
I will have to be more careful.

“I want nothing more than to please you my Lord. Can’t you understand that?” he said as he boldly reached out and ran his fingers through my hair, “would you allow me to please you Lord Sesshoumaru?”

I should have said no…

Small, not quite childlike, but also not adult, fingers moved from my hair, across my shoulders, down my side, over my hips. Nimble little fingers traced circles on my flesh and I looked up into eyes baring a look no one his age should know how to give. Nearly startled back to my senses I move back only to feel a hand grasping the erection I am ashamed to have.

“Kohaku...”

He silences me with a kiss and says, “My name sounds beautiful on your lips,” a tongue slides from my mouth to my ear as a small mouth whispers, “I’m sure I will hear it many times this night.”

…and Kami help me…he was right.
