The look of complete confusion on Ban’s face had me fighting not to laugh and when those blue eyes looked at me I said, “There’s nothing to worry about Love, you’re fine.”
“Indeed you are,” Sesshoumaru remarked and the way he said it had me fighting not to choke on my sake, “Your presence is a sheer delight as per usual.”
The emphasis on sheer almost killed me and Ban’s obliviousness seemed to be growing instead of diminishing.
“Uh well what were you guys looking at? Sounded like you were talking about something in the room?”
Before I could put an end to this Sesshoumaru pointed at a vase over the fireplace and said, “I believe that piece of art above the mantle was our focus before we moved on to a true work of art.”
My jaw had to be on the floor again and once Ban walked up to the hearth, stretched to his full height, therefore displaying everything before us on silver platter, to scrutinized the vase I was done.
“I’ve always loved that thing and thought of it as one of the best pieces of art in this room.”
“That’s all in the eye of the beholder Love,” I said as I glared at Sesshoumaru for unabashedly staring at my lover while his back was turned.
The asshole brother merely shrugged at me and continued to enjoy the view.
“Well I’ll let you two get back to your debate or whatever. I’ve got to get out of these wet clothes,” Ban said as he strutted past Sesshoumaru and made his way towards the door.
“Be sure to let us know if you require any assistance,” Sesshoumaru said about the time Bankotsu reached the base of the stairs and the baffled look he turns and gives me was priceless. I smile and wink at him and he shakes his head and continues on up the stairs.
When I look at Sesshoumaru, waiting on an explanation, he was filling his glass with more sake, “As an opportunist, did you really expect anything less out of me little brother?”
“Regardless I’m shocked, that wasn’t like you.”
“I have… what do you call it… loosened up in the last few decades.”
“So I see.”
“How long do you think it will take him to notice his attire and put two and two together?”
“Actually I’m surprised he hasn’t…”
“INUYASHA! I’M GOING TO KILL YOU!” was the bellow heard from upstairs.
“I take it he finally passed one of the full length mirrors in your suite?”
“Yup and there is gonna be so much hell to pay for this.”
“But it was worth it was it not?”
“Every wet dripping moment.”
