Summary: AU. Sesshoumaru lacks foresight.

“We’re in a broom-closet,” Kagome whispered, her breath tickling Sesshoumaru’s ear in the confined space.

“Hnn...” Sesshoumaru breathed, rubbing his forehead with his palm. His only thought had been to steal her away from the loathsome wolf that pursued her; he hadn’t thought about the confined space he’d forced himself into. The scent of Kagome scrambled his thought processes, and he couldn’t seem to release her from his iron embrace.

Kagome laughed and he fought off a shiver as the warm exhale of air from her lips made Goosebumps rise on his flesh. Though in the diminished she could barely make out those glowing golden eyes - so catlike - Sesshoumaru could run his eyes over her features to his heart’s content.

“I’m not complaining,” she dropped her forehead to his shoulder. “After Kouga’s manhandling, this is nice.”

“The wolf seeks to claim you,” Sesshoumaru growled.

“Huh,” Kagome scowled adorably. “We’ll see about that,” she rumbled.

A smirk caught Sesshoumaru’s lips; her fierceness only enhanced her beauty.

“He will not have you,” Sesshoumaru pledged lowly.

Kagome averted her gaze. “You sound... jealous,” she ventured.

A low growly scoff echoed in the confined space. “I would have you,” he murmured, his voice strong as ever, but Kagome’s heart was warmed. Unlike Kouga, Sesshoumaru was giving her the option of rejecting him - restoring her faith in chivalry.

“Did you just ask me to go out with you?” she clarified tentatively.

“Hnn...”

Kagome’s smiled as she reached behind her and gripped the handle of the closet, drawing it open and stepping into the corridor.

“I might consider your suit,” Kagome teased, “but could you try again when we’re not surrounded by cleaning products?”

Sesshoumaru’s lips twitched as he brought her hand to his mouth and placed a kiss on her wrist. “Look forward to it.”
