Summary: Sesshoumaru knows just what Kagome needs.
AN: Future chapter of The Grey Scale.
Feels Like Home Kagome couldn’t think of a better way to spend her evening. Even so, she stood close to Sesshoumaru as they moved closer to the seaside pavilion. Everyone here is youkai. It was true that Sesshoumaru knew what she had been in the past, but these others did not. They might not take too kindly to me being here.
Sesshoumaru led her to one of the outside tables and they waited. After several minutes of silence, Kagome opened her mouth to speak, but Sesshoumaru’s look in her direction gave her pause.
“I will return.” He left without so much as a goodbye. Kagome took that time to look around the room. She didn’t recognize any of them, but she felt their auras clear as day. A young man with charcoal eyes sat down in Sesshoumaru’s empty seat, eager to start up a conversation.
“You’re new here. I’m Kenji.” Before she could introduce herself he continued on, “You seem familiar, but you’re not a youkai are you. Curious, really. Humans don’t come here.” His tone was polite, but his eyes reflected his intentions. A warning.
Kagome laughed and simply stated, “I’m not your everyday human either. Guess that means I’m safe.” Was she safe? Probably only relatively. But surely Sesshoumaru wouldn’t let anything happen to her.
From across the room Sesshoumaru watched while she mingled. When he joined her at the table and she smiled at him, he knew he’d succeeded. She is happy.
Somehow he’d known just what she needed.
Home.
