Caught in the Rain
SessKag Week 2025, Day 1 — Weather Prompt: Rainstorm Rated G 540 words

The morning had been full of sunshine, such a beautiful summer’s day she couldn’t bear staying inside. Earlier, when she was leaving the village, a few scattered drops splattered her. She didn’t think much of it. The cool, soft touch of the rain was refreshing, actually, she had mused, like a right idiot.
Now the skies have opened. The world has turned grey and the heavy fall of rain all around her blurs all its edges like a filmy curtain. The rain pours down, relentless, and though she’s on a familiar path, it’s hard to make her way. Not only because of the poor visibility, but because she’s absolutely drenched. The fabric of her hakama is soaked through, hanging heavy from her hips and clinging to her legs with every step as she hurries down the road. She knows she doesn’t have far to go, but right now it feels like her home might as well be an ocean away. She’s pretty sure there is as much water between her and her destination currently, anyway.
Kagome grits her teeth and tries to pick up her pace. Cold is starting to seep in. Raindrops cling to her lashes as she tries to squint through the downpour. Her foot slips and Kagome swears under her breath. The path is becoming muddy. Worrying about turning an ankle is the last thing she needs right now. Still, she hurries on, picturing the reward awaiting for her when she reaches her destination. Dry clothes. Warm fire. A steaming cup of tea. A blanket over her shoulders and a roof over her head. Roofs are definitely underrated, Kagome decides.
Ahead, there’s a sudden flash of light. Kagome yelps and stumbles back a step. She half expects to hear the rumble of thunder, but the low, dark sound that cuts through the static rush of the rain is a growl. Her spine growing rigid, Kagome blinks water out of her eyes—and there, blocking her path stands a still, white figure.
A familiar, pissed off white figure, if the growling is anything to go by.
“Sesshoumaru!” Kagome cries out. She clutches her chest, torn between relief and alarm.
“Miko.” He snarls. “What is the meaning of this?”
She knows she’s in trouble, but irritation still sparks inside her at the implied accusation.
“The meaning of what?”
He grits his teeth, jaw tight. “Why are you out in the rain?”
“I didn’t know there was a storm coming! The rain took me by surprise.”
“And why did you not seek shelter when it began?”
“Seek shelter where, exactly?” Kagome retorts, tossing a glare at the field around them. “It didn’t feel like the rain would stop any time soon and I didn’t want to wait it out. I just want to get home.”
Before she has the time to even blink, those strong, clawed hands are wrapping around her. Cradled to his chest, his firm grip secure on her shoulder, something inside her settles. Kagome closes her eyes and presses herself closer to his chest. He’s so warm! How is he always so warm?
“Come then, mate,” he murmurs in her ear before placing a quick kiss on the rain-slicked skin of her throat. “Let’s get you home.”

Kagome packs snow in her hands, moulding it, before carefully adding it to her snow man. Details are important, after all. She concentrates on her work, adding a few more finishing touches before she steps back to run a critical eye over her creation. It’s perfect. She grins and whirls around, her gaze bouncing around the snowy clearing. Three other snowmen are holding watch, but no one else is around. Kagome huffs, her breath misting in the air. Did Rin and the others already go back to the village? When? Did they even tell her they were leaving?
She’s been so absorbed in her creative genius that she didn’t even notice she’d been left behind. And then, all at once, other things she hasn’t noticed are undeniably present. Her hair is wet from the falling snow. Small shivers are running down her spine because it’s colder out than she realised. She flexes her fingers; they are red and raw and she can’t quite feel them.
Kagome closes her eyes and marvels at her own stupidity. She definitely should’ve been wearing mittens, even if they made her clumsy and hindered her artistic process.
Her eyes snap open when her wrist is snatched into a steely grip that pulls her hand up. Taken aback and more than a little confused, she stares at Sesshoumaru. Where did he come from? How come he’s so damn light on his feet? And most importantly, why is he frowning so fiercely at her hand?
“Sesshoumaru?” she asks, her voice trembling only a little.
He doesn’t reply. Instead, he blows on her hand. His warm breath makes the tips of her numb fingers tingle and something flutter in the pit of her stomach.
She must make some involuntary sound, because his hooded eyes turn to her, his sharp stare pinning her down. There’s a look in those secretive golden depths she’s never seen before.
"Come, miko,” he tells her, as imperious and haughty as always.
“Come where?” she asks, though she’s already following after him. For some reason, he’s still holding onto her hand as they head back to the village.
“The others are waiting,” comes his reply.
She watches his back, the way his silver-white hair swings with each step, and wonders just how she’s ended up here. Why Sesshoumaru has her wrist in his firm grasp, why he’s the one who has come to collect her, why she is following him so readily… Why is the beat of her heart suddenly so loud in her ears.
They arrive at Kaede’s hut. Sesshoumaru stops by the door and gestures for her to go in. His hand briefly splays against the small of her back as Kagome steps into her friend’s home. Rin rushes to greet her and help her peel off the winter gear while Kaede fusses and urges her to come sit by the fire. In no time at all, Kagome’s sitting under the peaceful warmth of the makeshift kotatsu she instructed Miroku and Inuyasha to build for Kaede, cradling a cup of tea in her hands, breathing in the fragrant steam.
“Thank you.” She smiles at all of them “I didn’t even realise how cold I was.”
“You need to take better care, miko,” Sesshoumaru admonishes her.
She is all too aware of him and the heat he is radiating along her side—he succumbed to Rin’s persuasion and is sharing the kotatsu with her.
“Sorry,” she mumbles to her tea, avoiding his stare. She can’t quite bear to look at him. Her heart still hasn’t calmed down.
Hidden under the thick blanket of the kotatsu, something heavy and warm settles on her thigh, gives it a squeeze. Something, that feels suspiciously like Sesshoumaru’s claw-tipped hand.
Her breath catches in her throat and liquid heat pools inside. She feels the weight of his attention on her, catches the flicker of a smile curling his lip.
Quivering with a whole world of possibilities suddenly open before her, Kagome sips her tea and hopes that Kaede and Rin do not realise that the cold winter air alone is not responsible for the flush of her cheeks.
