Kagome was quiet during the trip to the airport and the trip back to Spokane. She had always known Sesshomaru to be a bit harsh, but she had never heard him speak the way he had spoken to her. The things he had said to her continued to flip around in her mind. It was almost as though… Was he concerned for Inuyasha?
A few times on the plane she had wanted to ask Shippo what his thoughts were on the matter. Did he think Sesshomaru cared for Inuyasha? Did he know? She stopped herself from asking the kitsune, though. Every time she looked at him, he looked as though he wanted to punch something.
When they were in the car on their way back to Idaho, Kagome finally asked what was bothering him. He scoffed. “Better question would be what was bothering you,” he snipped.
She gasped at his sharp tone and watched as he bowed his head and shook it. “I’m sorry, Kagome,” he said. “It’s just… I keep thinking about Saki.”
She nodded. “You like her, don’t you?” she asked.
He threw her an ironic smile. “I guess you could say that,” he replied. “I did ask Sesshomaru for permission to marry her once. But those humans, Rin’s descendants, are his pets. He breeds them very carefully and meticulously. Says it’s what Rin would have wanted.”
Kagome furrowed her eyebrows. “But Saki loves Sesshomaru. You could tell just by the way she spoke of him.”
He rolled his eyes. “You don’t get it, do you?” he asked. He guided the car down the highway and bit his lip. “You’ve heard of dog breeding, right? Dog’s love their masters and, if they could talk, would probably never speak ill of them.”
Kagome’s eyes widened. Shippo glanced at her and, seeing that she understood, laughed at the irony of it all. “Sesshomaru would deny such things, you know,” he said. “But I’ve seen him. When he feels the humans are ready to take a mate, he gets involved and handpicks their partners. They think of him as some sort of guardian angel, so they never argue with his choices. Then again, I don’t think they know how to argue with his choices.”
“Saki isn’t married, is she? She’s awfully young still,” Kagome inquired.
Shippo shook his head. “She has at least another three years before she’s old enough to marry, but Sesshomaru is looking for her mate. He just hasn’t found the right one yet.”
“That’s awful,” the miko said sadly. “So, even if you did like her, it wouldn’t matter because Sesshomaru doesn’t approve? Couldn’t you two elope?”
The fox snorted. “As if she would! Her entire family, including Saki, is woven so thickly around Sesshomaru that they wouldn’t do anything without his approval,” he sneered. “Everything revolves around Sesshomaru. ‘What school are you going to?’ ‘Whatever school Lord Sesshomaru thinks is appropriate.’ ‘What did you think of that movie?’ ‘Well, Lord Sesshomaru thought it was rather dull.’ ‘Why are you wearing that dress?’ ‘Lord Sesshomaru thought it was pretty.’”
Shippo scoffed. “It’s like talking to robots,” he huffed.
Kagome looked at him curiously. “So, what made you take an interest in Saki?” she asked.
He just shrugged. “I thought she was cute, I guess,” he replied. He was quiet for a moment before he spoke up again. “She looks so much like her. In a lot of ways, she acts like her, too. There’s just something special about Saki. There’s a fire in her eyes that I remember from…”
He became quiet again and Kagome could only guess what he was thinking. She had never known the kitsune to be reserved or unwilling to speak of his feelings. In a lot of ways, he was very much the same kid she remembered from 500 years ago, but in other ways, he was very much different. He had changed and grown up.
Looking at him, she could just make out the worry lines in his face. They were barely noticeable and anyone who didn’t know him would be hard-pressed to find them. He was still young, very young. Or was he? The corners of his mouth and eyes showed the telltale signs of age, but again, anyone else would not see it.
“Who did Rin end up marrying?” she asked after a while.
She saw his expression darken and it dawned on her that he may have had feelings for the little girl. The darkness lasted for only a moment before it was gone. He sighed. “You’ll be happy to hear that she ended up marrying Kohaku,” he told her. “They had two children together and lived very happy lives.”
“Oh!” she said with a smile that didn’t reach her eyes.
