A Kiss To Heal
A short story written by: Sithhunter for my fanmanga "Memories"
Yume sat up suddenly as she felt a sharp pain on her leg...surprising considering it was just a small bug. The young woman reached down and slapped the bug..but then immeiditly regreted the action because it only gave her leg more of a sting. Yume stood up on the hard wooden oak floor...they had stayed at an inn for the night..only for the fact that rin had a terrible fever. When they got to the inn it had taken hours to get rin's fever down..and when it finnaly dropped it was sundown..when they had arrived at the inn around mid-afternoon.
Yume cracked her neck and opened the sliding door that allowed her a full veiw of the moon as it lifted itself above the hills...after rin's fever had gone down sesshomaru told yume to try and sleep...wich was much easier now considering her nightmarer's had finnaly stopped...and everyone in the inn had left quite quickly when sesshomaru had arrived...it was as if they feared the demon lord would slay them on site...but yume knew sesshomaru wasent like that...he was kind and careing...well at times he was.
Yume scoffed as she saw her bloodied bandage at her feet...that had been around her stomach a few moments ago. Yume took her shirt off...not really thinking if anyone was looking and leaned down to grab the cloth..and soon collapsed on the wooden floor in pain...it had been a whole month and the wound still would not heal.
When yume looked back up she saw sesshomaru..not five feet from her...also quite topless...witch in that moment yume realized she had no shirt on..she would have blushed if she had not been is such pain..b-but where was sesshomaru's shirt? It wasent like him to walk around without it...then yume rememberd that sesshomaru had taken it off and laid it on top of rin as a blanket.
"Naraku dident let you off easely." Sesshomaru stated as he neared yume...what was he thinking? Yume almost panicked when sesshomaru reached to her...but he only picked up the bandage and whispered "Hold still." Sesshomaru began to wrap the bandage around her wound and worked quite quickly considering he had only one arm...yume was left in quite an embarrasing postion..not only was she half naked..but sesshomaru dident even seem bothered by it...and yume couldent stop stealing glances at the demon lord's well muscled chest.
Sesshomaru laid a hand on her stomach when he finished the bandage and closed his eyes...as a yellow energy coursed through his shoulder to his hand then onto yume's wound...yume gasped as she felt sometihng strange happen..the wound's...pain..it seemed to almost vanish. "Its a demon magic." Sesshomaru said as he removed his hand "My father tought it to me..your wound is healed..but it would be wise to keep the bandage on." Sesshomaru looked into yume's eyes..yume wanted to do so much to repay what sesshomaru had done for her...but all she could do was gaze back into his eyes.
The tensaiga healed your wounds...but not your heart..."sesshomaru said as he leaned closer "a sword cannot heal that...but i can..." Yume wrapped her arms around sesshomaru and lead him closer...Yume closed her eyes as her's and the demon lord's lips touched...so softly..so sweetly...yume wraped her arm's around sesshomaru and pulled him in closer...deepening the kiss...sesshomaru gladly obliged...takeing in her sweet scent..this woman who seemed so familar to him...this woman who he was strangly attracted to...this woman..was finnaly his...if only for tonight....
A few hours later...
Rin opened her eyes and slowly sat up and rubbed her little eyes...where was lord sesshomaru? Rin stood up..still a little wobblely on her legs she walked over to a sleeping jaken who was comfortably snoreing in the corner...sesshomaru must have left jaken to watch rin while she slept....thats her sesshomaru, allways looking out for her. Rin quietly walked over to the door that led to yume's room and slid the door open just a little bit so she could see into the room.
"What is it rin?" A sleepy jaken said as he yawned...he was awakened by rin's walking around. Rin slid the door shut again and turned to jaken with one of her secret smile's on her face. "Sshhh master jaken! Yume and lord sesshomaru are sleeping." Jaken's eyes bugged from his head and he said in a quite serious tone "I think the neither world just froze over..."
