Moving Away
"Kagome," Sesshomaru yelled looking around his room. "Kagome, where are you?" he asked as he looked in his closet and behind the door. With a sigh he sat down on the edge of the bed, and ran his hand through his shoulder length silver hair. He smiled when he heard a sudden rustle of the covers.
He stood back up and turned to see in the corner of the bed by the wall was Kagome small form under the covers. In one swift movement he pulled the covers off her and jumped onto the bed, and pinned her to the bed under him.
"Gotcha," he said, but when he saw Kagome's tear stained face his smile quickly disappeared. He rolled of over her and watched as she sat up. "What's wrong?" he asked not knowing what else to do.
Kagome looked up at him as tear after tear ran down her cheek, and dripped off her chin. "I-I'm moving." She whispered. Sesshomaru paused in disbelief. "I won't let you." He said as he took her into his arms.
"I won't let you leave me." He whispered in her ear. Kagome leaned her head into his chest, and closed her eyes. Kagome stayed in his arms for what seemed like hours, but was only a few minutes.
They heard a knock on the door, and looked up. "Yes?" Sesshomaru said letting go of Kagome, and standing up. Kagome watched as the door opened, and a young looking lady stepped in.
"Sesshomaru it's time to eat." She said Sesshomaru nodded, and then looked at Kagome. His mother smiled and turned to her. "Who you like to eat with us one last time?" the lady asked with a smile.
Kagome nodded then burst into tears once again. Sesshomaru mom looked saddened, and walked over to the bed.
"I'm sorry sweetie. I didn't mean…" Sesshomaru glared at her, and she walked to the door. "Wash your hands and come down." She told them, and shut the door.
After a while Kagome calmed down and climbed off the bed. With a sad smile she took young Sesshomaru's hand and walked out of his room and into the bathroom.
They both quickly washed there hands and walked out into the kitchen. There at the table was Sesshomaru's father, and mother. (Inuyasha's not there, but he's somewhere else…don't worry he's in here…not very much though.)
They both sat down and began to eat. Through out the whole dinner Sesshomaru's mother tried to get them to talk and be happy, but neither talked, or even look up from there plate.
After dinner his mother had given up hope, and retreated into the living room, and his father got up and went into his study.
Kagome looked up at the clock, and jumped out of her seat. "I've got to go." She said as she grabbed her plate.
Sesshomaru stood, and watched her. "But why?" he asked. Kagome stopped and turned to him. "I don't want to get into trouble." She said as she dropped the plate in the sink.
Just then they heard a knock on the door. They both turned there attention to it as his mom stood up and walked to the door. She opened it, and smiled. "Hello Mrs. and Mr. Higurashi." Sesshomaru's mom said. "Come on in." The two both stepped in and looked around.
"Is Kagome here?" Mrs. Higurashi asked as she turned back to Sesshomaru's mother with a slightly disgusted looked on her face. In truth the two families hated each other, and were rarely ever in each others house, but for the children's sake they pretended.
With a slight nod Sesshomaru's mom led them up the stairs, and into the living room. "Have a seat. I'll go get them." She said and walked off. They both looked at each other, and sat down.
Sesshomaru's mom (What the heck is her name, or at least there last name?) walked down the hall and knocked on her sons door once again. When she didn't hear an answer she slowly opened the door, and walked in.
After looking around the room she sighed and walked back out, and shut the door. Then she walked back down the hallway, and into the living room.
When she walked back into the living room Kagome's parents both stood, and turned to her. "Well?" they both asked at the same time.
Sesshomaru's mom glared at them, but looked away. "It seems are children have decided to run away together." She said as closed her eyes expecting to hear her mother scream or something.
After a minute of silence she opened her eyes again, and looked up to see them both looking at her with a glare that could freeze hell. "Well are you just going to stand there, or are you going to go and find them?" Kagome's mother yelled at her.
Just then Sesshomaru's father walked out of his study, and walked up to them. "Could you please be a little more quiet?" he asked looking at the couple across from them. "I have some very important papers that are due tomorrow." He told them.
Both Mr. and Mrs. Higurashi looked shocked. "Aren't you scared that they'll get hurt, or get lost?" she yelled at him as she walked forward.
"Well it seems that your not." He said looking at her as she walked closer.
Kagome's mother paused in mid step. "What did you say?" she asked. Sesshomaru's dad looked at her, and smirked.
"If you truly cared for your daughter then you would be out there looking for her not standing here and yelling at me and my wife." He said causing Mrs. Higurashi to take a step back.
"And besides we know where they are." He stated, and walked back into the study, and closed the door.
All three of them stared at the door for a few seconds, and then turned to each other. Kagome's mom looked at her and the started crying, and ran down the stairs, and out the door.
Sesshomaru's mom smiled and then turned to Kagome's dad. "Well?" he said looking from the door to her.
"Well what?" she asked acting stupid trying to buy her son some more time. She turned to the kitchen, and walked to the sink.
"Where are they?" he asked following her in there, and standing behind her. She turned around and looked at him with a smile. "Who?" she asked leaning her back against the counter.
Kagome's dad was beginning to get angry. He stepped closer to her, and leaned in to where they were only inches from her face. "Because the longer you keep her from me the harder it's going to be." He whispered in her ear. "So are you going to tell me or not?" he asked with a smirk.
Sesshomaru's mom pushed him away, and then nodded. "Fine." She said glaring at him, and then looking at the ground. "Sorry sweetie." She whispered, and then she told her where they were.
Sesshomaru held Kagome in his arms as they say in a low branch of the tree in the back yard. They both looked up at the moon in the sky. It was barely seen through the thick cloud blocking the path.
"I'm sorry." She whispered up at him. Sesshomaru nodded, and put his chin on her head. "It's not your fault." He said as a cool breeze blew his hair slightly.
Just then they both heard a slight rustle of leaves, and turned to see who it was.
"Dad?" she asked as she saw the shadowy figure walk closer. "Yes." He said. "It's time to go."
Kagome sat up, and lowered her head but nodded as he stood next to the tree and waited. Sesshomaru tightened his hold around her waist, and leaned up close to her ear. "How will I protect you?" he whispered. "From him." He said as an after thought.
Kagome looked up at him as tears came to her eyes again. "I'll be fine." She said and reached up and kissed him. Then she turned to her dad, and dropped from the tree. He dad caught her bridle style, turn, and started to walk away.
Sesshomaru watched in silence as his best friend was taken away from him. He jumped out of the tree and ran to the front yard just as the rain started to come from the clouds.
A tear slide from his cheek as he watched her dad carry the girl into the house, and shut the door. Right then he swore he would never love again, but he wondered if he was just fooling himself.
I know, I know its short, but I will try and make them longer in later chapters. Oh and just so you know they are like 11 maybe 12 in this
