This Isn't Happening by Chasity

I'll only say it once, so listen up. Inuyasha, and everything associated with him, is property of Rumiko Takahashi.

Kagome sat alone on the riverbank thinking. Sesshoumaru had come to Inuyasha for the tetsiaga a few days ago, and ever since then, something had been bothering her. She didn't know what it was, but it was bothering a certain hanyou. He had sensed her crying last night, and had automatically guessed his brother had done something to her. " What did he do to you Kagome?" Inuyasha had rushed in, immediately questioning the young miko.

Without thinking, Kagome replied, " Nothing, Sesshoumaru would never do anything to hurt me."

"WHAT?" Inuyasha had screamed out,

"He tried to kill you!" Kagome sighed, realizing what she had just said. 'What was I thinking? Inuyasha's right, he tried to kill me at their fathers' grave. But he's so relaxed, and has his priorities in order. Chikuso, what am I thinking? He's a cold blooded demon!'

Miroku had stepped in then, ready to prepare his bed for the night. Kagome was glad; she hated having to sit the impatient hanyou. Now Inuyasha and the gang were somewhere in the woods, fighting off a large Spider-Demon.

When she had encountered Sesshoumaru a while ago, he had looked at her longingly for a moment. She had felt a feeling of warmth, but that all ended when he slashed at Inuyasha, merely a few feet away from her. Kagome had screamed, and leaped out of the way. Now, she remembered his gaze so clearly.

Kagome heard the leaves rustle directly above her, and she glanced upward. She was shocked with the result, standing there, was a giant demon. She stepped back quickly, but was paralyzed when she saw him slash through the demon, and the demon fall to the ground.
