Love Lee's Room

She approached him looking at the door and a box tucked beneath her arm. It had the clothes in it with the receipt attached. She'd rather him see it for himself than drone on about it. The receipt read...

Top.........458.90
Pants......765.21
Boots......1,875.93
Tax.........5.43

Total......3105.47

He blinked. "It's his problem. What he did was wrong, do you honestly care if he wants his money back? Even if it is an awful lot?"

She bowed her head nervously, "I guess not..." She was always so cautious about money since she had so little having forgotten this guy was a lot wealthier than her. "I am sorry. I am rather ill in the sense of spending money." she stretched and scratched the back of her head. "You did not have to stay you know....Well-why did you stay?" she asked in bewilderment.

"What do you mean?"

"You did not have to stay..."

"I wanted to." He said, staring at her, his expression blank like it usually was. "I will leave if you wish?"

She shook no hastily, "I-It was just a question...but if you must you can...." she slumped back onto the ground fiddling with her hair nervously.

He shook his head. "I have no need to make my leave if you do not want me to."

She smiled and closed her eyes, "What is it like....being with a lot of people at once?"

Sesshomaru was waiting at the door with a bouquet of flowers behind his back and another hand preparing to knock on the door.

"What do you mean..?" He questioned, his face turning slightly confused.

"You are with many people all the time. You are um...never alone. Especially since you have Ne-" she glanced at the door seeing a shadow through the crack. "Is that...someone outside?"

"Not.. not anymore.." He replied, his eyes turning slanted to as he turned his head away, looking towards the door. "Yes, someone is at the door. They've been standing there for about five minutes now.."

"Un...maybe we should see who it is..." she slid off the bed and paced quietly to the door. She opened it cautiously and poked her head out. Her eyes met the center of his chest that she stared hard at before looking up at his face.

"Oh my....I know you, do I not?" she tapped her index finger on her chin in thought and said quietly to herself, "Do not forget....this is....Seshomaru!" She beamed down at her feet having remembered his name and then looked up at him again. "Um...is there a reason you are here so late at night? Have I done something wrong?"

He continued to stare at the door, his face in the same, somewhat pained expression as before.

"Do.. you have company..?"

She stood upright and looked back at him, "I am not sure why he is here..." She spoke in a loud whisper showing she was clearly confused .

"Hm.." He looked away, over to the wall, staring at it. "There must be a reason.."

He walked through the door and drew a sword looking thing, a grim smile on his face

He turned his head and looked to the random, long silver haired guy that looked as though he were a samurai. He gave him a skeptic expression. "What is it you would like, stranger?"

Lee observed his sword through big eyes and stepped in front of Gaara defensively as she was trained to instinctively do.

"Refrain from causing him harm friend. I will have to hurt you Sesshomaru." she warned in a sad like voice. "Are you here for him? His room is nextdoor." She bowed almost as she pointed the other way as if directing him to it.
