Disclaimer: I don’t own Inuyasha nor will I ever that is why this is a FANFICTION (but you probably already knew all that.)

“Sesshomaru-sama, why are you so tense? If you don’t mind me asking.” The little ebony haired miko asked, a somewhat concerned expression taking over her face as she looked up at the great taiyouki.
“I am simply being bothered by those others of my clan, it isn’t anything to worry about miko.” He answered Kagome from the boulder he was sitting on.
This strange private friendship started when Kagome lost something.
Kagome scuttled around on her hands and knees, deep in the forest, looking for something.
“Looking for something, miko?” came a deep smooth voice from behind her.
“KYAA!!” Kagome, surprised quickly attempted to stand up and spin around at the same time and only succeeded in falling back onto her rear. “Ouch!” she looked up to see the object of her search dangling from a clawed hand. She snatched it as fast as possible and maybe even faster than that.
She closed her eyes and sighed in relief and was about to thank the man until she realized how familiar the voice was. She paled and just hoped she was wrong she looked up at the man and then sat frozen in place for a moment.
Once Kagome broke out of her stupor, she just hoped she wasn’t worth the time it takes to kill her.
She stood up and bowed deeply “I thank you, very much, Sesshomaru-sama.”
Sesshomaru for his part could smell a hint of fear from Kagome, some old and some recent. Sesshomaru was pleasantly surprised at the composure that Kagome held but was also puzzled ‘what about that object makes her fear its loss?”
“You have no reason to fear me miko.” He said dryly “if I wished for your death, you’d already be without your head.”
“Oh… right… I mean-” Kagome was cut-off.
“Do you truly see me as honorable?” Sesshomaru asked with a slightly curious look.
Kagome stood stupefied ‘that was random and how did he… no way, he wouldn’t’ Kagome suddenly realized.
“YOU READ MY DIARY!?” Kagome screamed she was out raged ‘HOW DARE HE!’
Sesshomaru cocked his head to the side slightly, ears still ringing. Sometimes superior hearing was more of a curse “dairy?”
“Yes, my dairy!” Kagome yelled at him shoving the little book, which he had just returned to her, in his face blocking most of his view.
Sesshomaru placed a single index finger on top of the dairy lowering it from his view. “That was most uncalled for Miko, and for some reason you seem upset. Why?”
Kagomes eyes’ widened and then narrowed into a death glare “Why?? WHY!?? I’ll tell you why! Because a diary is something that has a person’s most personal, thoughts, secrets and memories in it and you read it without my permission, then wonder why I’m upset?!” she ranted jabbing a finger at his chest.
“Miko…” Sesshomaru said, hiding his amusement placing a hand on hers lowering it “if you wish to keep something secret then you should not write it down for others to read, more or less leave it in the middle of a clearing near a hot spring. You are not the only one who enjoys cleanliness.”
Anger forgotten, being replaced by confusion “you… bathe?” Kagome inquired, amazed, she never really thought of that.
Sesshomaru scoffed “human are you truly so simple minded that you think I am like my half brother and therefore enjoy being foul?” the way he said it was more of a statement than a question.
“I am Sesshomaru and I do not warp my true image by being as disgusting as him.” he said leaning against a tree with a somewhat more relaxed position.
Kagome felt a little more comfortable now that he seemed a bit more relaxed “that’s not what I meant, I mean, I didn’t think you had to bathe. You know you always look so pristine, with inhuman cleanliness.”
“I’m Not human, so being inhuman is not so implausible now is it?” Kagome faltered at that and if Sesshomaru had he been anyone else he would be laughing at her somewhat dumbstruck expression ‘she clearly didn’t think it out and just assumed.’
“My cleanliness is not the only one ‘inhuman’ as you put it, the same could be said about you. You at least smell better but it is also obvious in your looks, your hair is well taken care of and you don’t stink with sweat, blood and grime nor is it seen, unless it is fresh.” Sesshomaru stated, with a mild look of disgust, as if he was covered in some unsanitary goop.
“Umm… thank you?” Kagome said uncertainly watching her feet until she remembered why they were talking in the first place but was calmer this time, bringing it up.
“In answer to your earlier question, you do seem honorable. At least you don’t lie or hide things…” Kagome trailed off.
‘What is that look on her face? She’s very complex and not nearly as simple as most humans. She seems to think far more deeply into things she seems more intelligent. What is it that separates her from most mikos? That makes so much more superior to others?”
“Umm... Sesshomaru-sama may I ask why you read my dairy?” Kagome said with a deep blush.
“It was something that I don’t believe I’ve ever seen before. It was curious but I know it was a scroll of sort.s scrolls usually contain useful knowledge and I had not much else to do when I found it and I read it.” He said highly indifferent to the situation.
“So… you were bored.” She stated guessing that’s what he meant.
“Call it what you will.”
Kagome sighed as Sesshomaru suddenly said “Miko you will tell me of your world.”
The idea was somewhat appealing to her. Having an intelligent conversation with someone who will actually listen and not grope me and might actually think about it rather than brush it off if they don’t understand something and hopefully won’t interrupt too much.
“Well, what is it you want to know?”She asked and that’s how things got started, they learned different things from each other they eventually became friends.
As they sat in the field Kagome could feel it wasn’t just nothing and in her opinion it wasn’t just annoying him, they were seriously causing him stress.
Kagome turns to look up at Sesshomaru “you know, Sesshomaru-sama you can tell me anything and no one will need to know, unless it’s about Naraku or the jewel, okay? I just know, it can often help if you talk about it, with someone you trust, if you do have problem I wish you would tell me, I might be able to help.” The hopefulness and true compassion in her eyes made him want to tell her.
“the elders of my clan believe it’s time for-” Sesshomaru cut himself off saying “your pack members timing is most inconvenient. We will meet later tonight miko.”
“Hey Sesshomaru-sama before you go. Why do we keep this secret again?” Kagome asked.
“I do not wish to waste my time fighting with Inuyasha for no reason except that he’s an idiot.” He said disappearing into the forest.
“Kagome!” Sango wearing her demon slaying equipment yelled in relief, entering clearing the opposite side of the forest that Sesshomaru exited.
“Hey, Sango.” Kagome noticed the look on her face and became concerned “is something wrong?”
“yes! Demons strong ones and a lot of’em!”
