Yay i finished it =)
Not that great, but it was fun while it lasted!
The theme was light, so I interpreted as happy, worry-free, care-free. Why did I choose the swings? I honestly don't know. And I didn't even draw it too well... but i couldn't resist!
Here's the image, (i know it's not awesome-tastic but bear with me
)

This is the image without all the white that cuts off the outline and parts of Kagome's head O_O
So this is a spoiler in BIA... unknown chapter. (only a few short paragraphs)
Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes at Kagome's childish behavior while at the playground. 'Honestly, does that girl ever get embarrassed?' he snorted and ran his hand through his hair in a swift move.
"Come on Sesshoumaru!" she waved her arm frantically. Kagome giggled lightly as she skipped towards the swings. Sesshoumaru heard her brown leather boots clack against the cement floor. He sighed softly, "... apparently not."
Sesshoumaru glanced at his platinum case Mens Rolex President watch impatiently. "We're going to be late, get off of the swings already!"
Kagome shook her head, "We still have time!" She enjoyed the wind dancing through her hair, the breeze in her face and the subtle squeaks from the metal chain. She never had the opportunity to play expensive video games in her childhood. Her family managed to build her a swing set in the backyard, and she would go on it for hours on end.
"Why is it that you want to stay on this blasted contraption?" she heard Sesshoumaru growl. Kagome rolled her eyes at his "mature" tone, or rather his annoyed tone. "Come on Sesshoumaru, you said you never been to a playground. I bet you never sat on a swing. Give it a try!"
Sesshoumaru snorted again, he seem to be doing that a lot lately when talking to Kagome. He thought he sounded rather... pigly? "Kagome, we have to get going. NOW."
Kagome huffed, "Look. Let's make a deal. You get on the swing for several minutes and I'll agree to leave whenever you're ready."
Sesshoumaru stared at her with disbelief. 'A deal? She's making a deal with me?' He then directed his gaze onto the empty swing seat next to Kagome, who seem to be having a blast. 'Why not? It can't possibly hurt.' Sesshoumaru hesitantly gripped the paint-chipped chains and sat on the firm wood plank.
"Sesshoumaru, swing. It's not that hard. See, you push yourself back like this then swing your legs forward. When you're falling back, lift your legs behind you until your feet is directly under your butt," Kagome demonstrated how to swing. Sesshoumaru wrinkled his nose lightly, and reluctantly did as told.
Several minutes passed and the pair was swinging away. Sesshoumaru was lifted up so high, the chains of the swing was nearly parallel to the ground.
"How do I stop this thing?!" he yelled out. He was enjoying himself on the swings, until he swung to a dangerous level. Sesshoumaru, was deathly afraid of heights.
Kagome laughed at Sesshoumaru's frightened expression, "When your feet can touch the ground, use your heels to skid on the floor." Sesshoumaru nervously attempted to stop, and fortunately for him, his lean legs were long enough to provide more friction than the average person.
Sesshoumaru sat silently as his swing came to a halt. Somehow his eyes trailed off to Kagome's smiling face again. He couldn't help but smile, her smile was contagious after all. He never thought he would have the guts to go on the swing. Perhaps Kagome made it look so simple, so easy that it put him to shame.
Kagome turned her head to find Sesshoumaru, only to see him smiling ever so lightly at her, "What?"
Sesshoumaru shook his head, "Nothing. Let's stay a little bit longer." Kagome blinked several times with a confused look on her face, "Sesshoumaru. You're moving back in your father's house. We can't be late."
"He can wait," his soft smile turned into a mischievous grin. Kagome laughed and nodded, "Alright."
