Phae’s Word Prompts: Star

Disclaimer: I don’t own anything.

            “Hey, Sesshomaru?” Kagome asked.

            “Mate,” he responded, not looking up from his newspaper.

            She looked at him over her shoulder. “Will you help me?”

            His eyes flicked up and he raised his eyebrow.

            Kagome pursed her lips, hesitant to ask, but determined to complete putting up the decorations.

            “Will you put the star on top of the tree for me?” she asked, turning to him fully and holding out the golden star.

            His eyebrow rose further as he stood and walked over to her. “You require me to do it because you cannot?”

            Kagome flushed. “I could, but I want you to do it.”

            “No. You are merely too short to reach the top.”

            Kagome’s eyes narrowed as she tried and failed to calm herself down. “Just because I can’t reach the top doesn’t mean I’m short.”

            Sesshomaru inclined his head. “No, but you are still tiny, little one.”

            “Don’t call me that!” she yelled, waving the star in his face.

            He plucked the decoration from her with a sniff. “It was an endearment.”

            “No! The way you said it was completely derogatory! Take it back!”

            “I will not,” he murmured, placing the star on the tree.

            “Ooh! Jerk!”

            “Hnn.”

Sort of Christmas-y…

Not really, but there were tree and star appearances…!

And there’s the whole height thing, which I love.

Even though it’s not present in the anime or manga, I love the idea.

It’s adorable!

T.N.T!
