Chapter 11: Hope Is A Good Breakfast
During the time that it took Sesshomaru to drive to Kagome’s house, the Inu Youkai reflected on the conversation he had had with his father. He could believe the man actually wanted him to get married at 21! His sire had married at 18 himself and just look at how that ended up! Inu no Taisho took a mate as an adolescent, meaning he never got a chance to take full advantage of his position and youth. That constriction led him to numerous incidents of infidelity in an attempt to have some kind of freedom. It wasn’t until he met the human Izayoi that he finally settled on just two mates rather than the seemingly millions of mistresses he had had in his lifetime.
‘There is still so much I want to do with my life.’ he thought dejectedly. None of those plans included a mate. He knew it was only a matter of time before his father called him out on the one thing that had worried all his family since his teens.
“Sesshomaru tell me the truth,” Inu no Taisho addressed his son, “Your entire life you have showed no interest in any type of female company. Is there a particular reason for that?”
Of course. He didn’t go skirt hopping and galavanting with women, so naturally people assumed he was homosexual. It was tedious to constantly explain his disinterest in females because others didn’t understand his feelings. No woman he was ever around just didn’t feel right. He never had any feelings whatsoever around men, but females it was like a spark went off in his mind that told him NO! Regular females naturally flocked to him because of his future as C.E.O of his father’s conglomerate company Yutaka Kasei. High ranking woman however were more interested in his impending title as Taiyoukai of the Japanese Western Province. Ladies weren’t really impressed with him as a person, just the blood in his veins and money in his parent’s bank account. He knew this well and always figured that was why he didn’t feel attraction to females. Sesshomaru always considered it a good thing that he didn’t fall for womanly charms like his father, grandfather, and pretty much all male nobility in history. The downside on the other hand was more embarrassing than anything. At 21 he had never experienced a kiss and regrettably was still….a virgin. It was part of the reason he had slightly hated the host that interrupted him and Kagome yesterday. Sighing at his wayward deliberating, he finally pulled up to her apartment complex.
Getting out the car he pressed the outside bell so that she could buzz him in. No answer. Hitting the button to her apartment a few more times he waited a moment only to still not be let in. A tenant walked out and holding the door open for used the chance to enter. Walking up to her apartment he knocked on the door that still possessed that horrendous signs. Nothing. Sesshomaru was starting to get worried. Pressing his ear against the door he listened for vibrations on the other side that would indicate someone was inside. Faintly he heard a thumping. ‘Her heartbeat’ he thought. Kagome was definitely inside, why wasn’t she answering?
Socrates’s frantic meowing was what it took for him to finally act. Gripping the doorknob he twisted with all his strength until it broke off, clattering to the floor. Sesshomaru barged into her small living room and saw everything as it should be except for one thing. The cat was frantically pawing at her bedroom door. Going inside his eyes widened when they landed on the female in the room. There in nothing but her socks and jeans was a completely topless Kagome, frozen in place since he opened the door. The pair said nothing as they continued to stare at one another. A warning growl forced Sesshomaru out of his dumbfounded state. No words were needed to understand what she wanted him to do, closing the door back slowly, he silently walked over to the couch, dropping into it once he reached it. Ashamedly he wasn’t surprised at seeing her topless, but the various scars that ran along her body. Her upper arms and stomach were covered in them. The worst one he saw was across her upper left chest. That one had run down at an angle almost to the center of her chest. Now he understood why she insisted on wearing such long sleeves even in the summer time. Glancing at his arm markings he smirked as he remembered his own body secret.
The strips on his wrists were tattooed. He had always hated the fact that his natural specifying ones only covered his face. It just never looked right to him that his face displayed who he was but the rest of his body didn’t. When he was 18 had had gone and found a tattoo artist that specialized in permanent ones for demons. Using a special matching ink that his body wouldn’t fight, she had given him the first of what he hoped to be many more traditional markings. Rubbing his hands along his sides he remembered. ‘Hn. Now that I think about it, its about time I got the ones I wanted on my sides.’ His attention turned to Kagome who was leaving her room fully clothed.
Cerulean eyes once more met gold, her flashing in anger when she noticed her front door’s lack of a lock. “So… instead of waiting outside for me to come out, you snuck in the entryway, and broke into my house….just so you could look at me NAKED!” she ended in a scream.
Sesshomaru’s eyes narrowed at her accusation. “You didn’t answer when I rang the intercom.”
Kagome stared at him as though he had two heads. “The intercom has been broken for years.”
“......”
“This isn’t the Shiro ,” she reminded him, her voice took on an announcer's pitch: “The largest in Japan! Completely refurbished a decade ago, the home of the illustrious Taisho clan still holds on to its tradition with modern accents.”
“I’m well aware of the news station that toured through our house a decade ago.”
“Don’t you still have tours in your house?”
“Yes but only on the main floor, ancient war room and surrounding gardens. The older buildings were renovated as well and only rarely does my father allow visitation to those.”
“Yea, I figured as much. Now then you pervert what possessed you to break into my house like this?”
“When you didn’t let me in the building I slipped in after a woman left and knocked on the door. The cat was yowling while scratching at the and I thought you might have had another seizure so.”
“So that’s why you barged in. I can tell you never had a pet before. They tend to act crazy when someone knocks on a door in general. Socrates does that as his way of alerting me someone is trying to get in here. This isn’t the safest place to live hence the sign. And as for my seizures, when I do have one again it won’t be for at least a week. Enough of my blood was drained and replaced with pure demonic blood that my miko capabilities are temporarily depleted.”
“Hn. Forgive me for once more invading your privacy. I was expecting more than this as your reaction though.” A sudden thought occurred. “If that’s all it takes for you powers to be suppressed, why not just make that a normal treatment for you?”
“Because suppressing my miko energy is like pressure on a balloon. Eventually it’ll break free, and being put down so long it could be deadly for both myself and those around me. Doing it only when I have a seizure causes them to cease and no more.”
“Ah. Well then with all the excitement of the morning are you ready for breakfast?” He inquired.
“There’s hope for you yet Sesshomaru-sama!” Kagome replied. A bright smile on her face now.
“Wait what do you mean?”
“I mean after your little peek show, instead of telling you to take a hike I’m going to eat the breakfast of kings, and then after class we’re gonna go to the store and get me a brand new lock. Maybe one of those fancy zap stranger on contact type ones. Oh and Socrates has always wanted to try that new fancy cat food they have out now. That should fix the Post Traumatic Stress Disorder you’ve caused both of us. All on your dime!”
“Fantastic…”
