a/n: why did I make sesshomaru a "candy man"?
well one of my friends did a video of sesshomaru to the song lollipop by aqua…and it got to me.. :DD

well here's the next chapter…I think I might have made some major OOC(s) for some characters plus sesshomaru and the others arent demons...i know...that would be nice but...yea...I'm sorry -.-

disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha….things would have be way way way different if I did.

Chapter 2: coffee anyone?

Walking down the mailing room halls of Sesshomaru Enterprise, Sango Taijiya boredly pushed her cart, piled high with packages and letters on her way towards the elevator.

"Say hi to my boyfriend for me," Ayame Kakazu called out from the sorting area. "Let Mr. Taishou know that he can pick me up at seven for our date." She said before laughing uncontrollably.

"And since he changes women every week, tell him I'm available next Friday." Said Kikyo Hidaka, as she tried to balance several cups of coffee on a tray.

"Every week?" Sango laughed "try every hour on the hour."

Laughter filled the windowless room as the three ladies continued to joke and make flirtatious comments.

Sango soon made her way into the elevator "I have to find you guys some decent boyfriends. Sesshomaru Taishou is just not good enough for you." Said with a reassuring smile. But as the doors closed and she pressed the button for the penthouse on the top floor, her smile faded.

Admittedly Sesshomaru Taishou was one of the most gorgeous men Sango had ever seen, but he was also one of the most arrogant. He barely acknowledged anyone who didn't have more then 50k to back them up. And probably hadn't spoken more then two words to her in the year and a half she'd been bring him his mail.

But her opinion of him came from more than just his lack of polite communication. Sesshomaru Taishou was a grown-up version of Miroku Houshi, the terribly charming rich kid who stolen a poor girl's teenage heart, promised her love, taken her virginity, then dumped her flat. She knew from the painful experience that men like Sesshomaru Taishou could easily do the same.

She sighed heavily. Kami, she had bigger things to think about then the workaholic man who hardly knew life below the 38th floor. Like how on earth she was going to open her art school on low budget would afford her. Sure, her job in the mail room paid her full benefits and allowed her flexible hours, but the amount of saving she had kept wasn't even close to what she needed.

It was beginning to look as though her dreams would have to wait a while.

The elevator dinged and she pushed the cart down the hall. No spirit lifting music played on the executive floor, only the low sounds of deals being made came from behind the closed doors and through the busy hallways. She paused in front of Mr. Taishou's office, plastered on a sweet smile, smoothed her hair back, and lightly knocked on the door.

"Enter" came the same husky command that she heard every morning for the past year and a half.

Briskly and with purpose, Sango opened the door and moved into the room "Good morning, Mr. Taishou."

He glanced up and smiled "Good morning."

She hesitated, her brows knitted. She couldn't remember him ever look at her before, let alone smiling. Usually he would be to busy with paper work or on the phone. Quickly swallowing the lump that had formed in her throat, she placed his mail in the wire mesh basket on the edge of the desk and tried to ignore the spicy scent of his cologne, which always seem to make her head spin whenever she got too close. "Your mail, sir."

"Thank you…"he said clearly not noticing the effect his smile was having on her "…Sango." He added in a smooth tone.

She froze. Sango? She had no idea that Sesshomaru Taishou even knew her name. What was going on here? And why was this guy giving her that smile, that unnerving, charming smile that promised more.

"Well…umm...have a good day, sir." She said trying not to stutter, and quickly turning to go. But the sleeve of her blouse had other plans, catching itself on the wire basket. Laughing nervously, she tugged on the stubborn fabric, trying to free herself. But it wouldn't budge. She gave it one last swift pull, but only managed to set the basket of mail flying. On a gasp, she lunged to catch it, hearing her shirt tear as she landed gracelessly on the floor.

With her heart slamming against her ribs and a shaky smile on her face, she raised the basket up in a sad show of victory, only to catch Sesshomaru Taishou's hawk-like stare. Trying to pretend that she was calm, she stood up and set the basket down firmly. And managing to knock over his cup of coffee.

Holding back a gasp and a couple of swears, she watched the stark stain spread across his desk.

"Ohmigod," she breathed, hearing him rush up beside her. "I'll clean it up right away."

"It's not a problem." His strong hands were on her shoulders pulling her close to his side away from the hot liquid and turned around and rang for his secretary with the push of a button "Rin, send housecleaning up with some paper towels."

Forgetting who he was and who she was for a second, Sango glanced up at the back of the Sesshomaru Taishou and drank in all 5 feet and 11 inches of him. His silky, long and unusually silver hair was neatly tied back in a low knot just like every other day. Almost tempted to reach out and touch it, Sango leaned in closer to him, almost drowning in he's smell, right before Sesshomaru turned around and caught her practically falling onto him. Looking in to his eyes, Sango could clearly see the highly acclaimed golden eyes that almost everyone in the building wooed over. Only two people in the entire city had eyes that color. Inuyasha, Sesshomaru's younger half brother, who also happened to work in the same building, was the other, but somehow they didn't look like his older brother's. Sesshomaru's eyes looked like they could peer into your soul, look into the deepest, darkest, most vulnerable and well hidden part of it, and rip it out with out consent.

Quickly drifting back to reality, Sango saw Sesshomaru looking at her with his notorious cold stare, which yet charmed its way into her mind. She could see why every woman in this building had a crush on him. And why her best course if action was to get as far away from him as possible, as soon as possible.

But she didn't move.

After what seem like hours Sango was the first to break the silence. "I'm sorry, Mr. Taish-

"Are you alright?" he asked cutting her off.

"Uhhh…yes thank for your…uhh concern…" said Sango as she realize how retarded she sounded. " I'm sorry, Mr. Taishou. I don't know what's wrong with me today…" adding an unconvincing laugh Sango slowly started backing away.

"Don't worry." he said "It'll be cleaned un momentarily." He quickly turned away from Sango, giving her a chance to get closer towards the door.

As he walked back behind his desk, a woman from housekeeping entered and silently mopped up the mess. She was gone in seconds. Only a couple of feet from the door Sango began to take long strides and was about to reach out towards the handle. She wasn't going to hang around and give him time to fire her.

"Stay, Sango." The sentenced sounded harsh, but his voice didn't comply with it. It sounded more like a request. A request from Sesshomaru Taishou.

"Do you need a safety pin or…"he began.

Almost forgetting that there was anything wrong with her shirt, Sango hastily put a hand over the tear in her white blouse.

"It's nothing really."

I should have left as soon as you turned your back.

"It's just a shirt."

I should get as far away from you possible.

"So I'm going now." She said as she looked at him hoping he would dismiss her.

As he eased back into his chair, he motioned for her to take the opposite seat. "Why don't you sit down for a moment?"

Sango sighed inwardly and nervously walked back closer to Sesshomaru even though all her instincts told her to run. She perched herself on the very edge of the seat and blurted out "am I being fired? I'm very sorry about the coffee and the mail. Oh, the small fire in the mail room last week wasn't really my fault and…"

Sango could have sworn she saw a hint of laughter in his eyes as they soften to her rambling, but they hardened to the more accustomed cold stare the she knew just a quick.

"Sir?" questioned Sango as Sesshomaru looked as though he was in deep thought. He quickly turned his attention to her. His gaze on Sango sent a massive shiver run through her whole body.

"I need you to marry me Sango." He said he was trying to make conversation.

a/n: hope that was okay…needs to go get some rest now :DDD
