An Endless Journey Of Love ~ Sesshomaru X Reader

An Encounter With A Pair Of Blue Gems

A week slowly goes by, but I did manage to pull through everyday so far. Thank goodness Sango, and Kagome are around to keep me company. At night after dinner, I would have tea with all of them just like how I use to. It's all normal till after the tea session, because everyone turns in and I'm by myself. Kagome and Sango offered to stay up with me and talk but I know they have families to return to, so I would go to the flower field with my koto. I would lose myself in the heavenly sound that the koto produces, and let the night breeze incase me and lull me into emptiness. A full week goes by and I wake up to the rising morning sun, I feel a bit groggy and nauseous. I sit up from my futon that I've been sleeping in alone for a week and just let the nausea disperse. When it fades away I get up and change out of my night wear, I head out to wash up. I have woken up a bit later than usual which is a bit weird but it's normal I suppose, last night I stayed up late with Kagome and Sango and had girl talks. As I walk to the bath house, Lady Kaede comes up to me.

"Lady Kaede, good morning." I say bowing to her.

"Good morning_________. How are you today?" She asks me with a smile.

"I'm fine thank you, is something the matter?" I ask her.

"Nothing's the matter, apparently, some fishermen in the village are going down to the nearby sea to go fishing and has asked Kagome, Sango, to tag along and see the sea and help out if help are needed. They are wondering if you would like to go with them." Lady Kaede tells me.

I smile at her and I give her a nod.

"I would love to, I haven't really explored much of the area and I've always planned to but never found the time to. When do we leave?" I ask her.

"The men has already headed to the sea, Sango and Kagome are getting ready at the moment. I'll let them know that you'll be going then, they will meet you at the entrance of the village." Lady Kaede says giving me a nod.

"Thank you Lady Kaede." I say to her with a big smile.

I hurry and wash up and change into my kimono and head to the entrance, Sango and Kagome are waiting for me. I run up to them and give them a morning hug.

"You're really happy today." Sango says with a bright smile.

"I am, I've always wanted to explore the area and I finally got the chance to." I reply back to her.

"I see, well let's get going, it's about a 25 to half an hour walk to the sea." Kagome says grabbing my hand.

"Say Sango, what about your kids?" I ask her.

"Don't worry about them, Shippo and Lady Kaede said that they will take care of them, we'll be back by the late afternoon. Besides, the twins aren't toddlers anymore, I'm sure they know how to behave by now." Sango says with a laugh.

The three of us laugh and head down the path to the sea. About half an hour later, we finally arrive to the sea. It's lively, there were boats docked and people walking along the shore. We see the fishermen in our village getting ready to set out, Sango and Kagome run towards them. I take a quick look around the vast area colored with green, blue, gold and brown. The place is beautiful, I take a deep breath of the fresh air, the people's voices around me makes me smile.

"__________! Come on we're setting out!" Kagome's voices calls for me ahead.

"Coming!" I shout back and I begin to walk towards the dock.

The sand on the shore crunches underneath my feet, it felt nice. As I head towards the loading dock, I look to my right. There were people walking and talking, but one person caught my eye not too far away. It's a man, around my age it seem like. He's standing at the edge of the water and looking out to the sea. I can't see his face. He's tall, lean, and looks strong from the way he stands. He's wearing a dark blue top men's kimono with a black silk obi. From the look of his hands and his neck, his skin is fair. His hair is not pure black, it contains shades of brown. He seems different, I looked him over as I head to the boat. As I step onto the deck, I'm at the edge of the water now. I decided that looking at someone I don't know too long isn't really polite so I revert my gaze to my feet to see where I'm going, when I'm on the wooden platform I turn my head to look out at the beautiful clear sea. As I scan the area from the left, I unknowingly scanned the area. I turned my body to look back onto the beach, and when I look to my right. I once again see the young man standing by the water, the sea wind gently blowing his chin length hair around his concealed face. There's something alluring about him, something different that draws me to him. It's not like the type of allure in which you fall in love, he just seems different than the other people. He's just standing there looking at the sea, while everyone else are having fun. Since I couldn't see his face, I decide to turn back and board the boat. But just as I turn around, from the corner of my eye I can see that he's turning around. With instinct, when something moves that's not in your center of vision you turn to examine what that movement is. So that's what I did, I turn my head back to look at him, and I guess he had the same feeling. He stops and turn his head and our eyes meet. He's not that far away so I can see his face now, he has fair skin, he's actually very fair, but not like dead pale, he has a young handsome face with big eyes and symmetrical facial features. Although I can see his face fine, but there's something about his eyes that seems to capture me. I can't really see his eyes clearly, but I can tell his iris isn't black or brown like ours. I couldn't look away, there's something about him that captures me. The young man seems to be caught by something too, he's not looking away or turning his whole body, he's just gazing at me. I don't know how much time has passed but suddenly someone tugs at my hand. I break the gaze and turn to see who it is.
