It had been hours of waiting, and they were ready. He wanted this to be done with. She wanted the pain to end. Their eyes met, and for a long, painful moment, she thought that this is the end.
“Sesshomaru-“
“Do not talk.”
He was holding very still, his eyes following her every movement. He was tired of waiting. He was tired of this dull throbbing pain in his chest that he couldn’t quite place. It left a bad taste in his mouth, and he was vaguely worried that the feeling would not pass.
He settled himself against the wall just outside of the room, sitting impatiently. Waiting- waiting, it was horrible. How long was he to wait? Gods be merciful.
He ignored the pain that nearly held taste in the room before him. Waiting… Waiting… It was driving him insane. Never before had he detested waiting so much.
Suddenly, there was a scream, and a shout, and the pain became all the more real. But then, a wet cry joined the chorus, and Sesshomaru stood with his wards in tow.
It was time.
His son was here.
