Desiring Warmth

Authoress: Kasiree

Dedicated to: My sister, Doll no Paper.

Kagome ponders Sesshoumaru's coldness, and somehow she desires to feel a warmth that he could probably never show. Slight SessKag, one-shot.

Inu-Yasha's half-brother, Sesshoumaru's cold. He is cold, I mean it. But we all know that somewhere there, it's warm. Warm as spring. Where he probably stores all his happiness in. Where he keeps all those emotions he so skillfully hid.

I always wondered why he hid it, when it's evident he cares for people and not just demons. He has Rin. He probably looks at her like a daughter, but of course he'll never admit that. And I know he cares for Inu-Yasha, he saves us from time to time. Yet he keeps insisting it's just coincidences.

Rin, I'm sure, knows alot of Sesshoumaru. Rin and Jaken perhaps, they're probably the closest companions he has after all. He has a warm heart and a cold facade... I wonder if I will ever experience that warmth... What am I saying? Of course I won't. I never will. Sesshoumaru probably thinks I'm just a nuisance...

But I still can't help the desire to feel the warmth he hides from everybody. From himself. It's sad to think about, hiding everything from everyone and yourself included. Denying truths and believing lies. He's stubborn, that's what he is. Like Inu-Yasha. Stubborn and prideful. I guess they really are brothers.

But whatever happens, I'm sure one day that warmth will surface. And maybe someday, I will feel it. And Inu-Yasha, too.

Because when snow melts, spring comes.

Owari...
