Hey it's me Charlie-Ann I'm back... even if you don't care *Cries in Emo Corner* Well here's your next instalment of Shangri-La, the Burlesque. You can tell I didn't have any names for it at first it was Found You but I changed the whole beginning of the story and then that title would have made no sense. ANYWAY!
I resisted the urge to squirm under the scrutinizing eyes of the girls and Naraku.
"Naraku, who's your hot friend?" Kikyou said as she moved closer to look at me in the still pretty dark room.
"Yeah, he sure is a Looker." Sango said too as she also stood in front of me. Both her and Kikyou standing so close together it was hard for Kagome to get a look, which ended up with Kagome pushing through the girls and almost landing on my lap. Not that I would have minded if she had fallen on me she was pretty cute.
Kagome took a long hard look at me then concluded, "He has to be a demon, I can feel his Youkai but I don't see any marks unless he's hiding them. Like you, right Naraku?" Naraku just nodded.
"Girls, this is Sesshoumaru Taisho the famous computer hacker, he's the man who's going to make our computers safe again." Naraku said patiently completely ignoring Kagome's question about markings.
Sango leaned in really close to my face studying it then "...But he looks so familiar, I got it! He looks exactly like InuYasha, only way hotter!" Sango said as she finally leaned back.
"He looks nothing like that man-whore! You can tell Mr. Taisho, has some class." Kagome said.
I smirked not really wanting to get into their conversation but wanting them to notice me.
"He certainly has class, but look how pale he is. He probably sits at home all day." Kikyou said casually as though I wasn't there. I opened my mouth to say something but was instantly beaten by Kagome who hit the girl lightly upside her head.
"Don't say such mean things in front of the person, or otherwise, it's not polite." Kagome reprimanded.
"Pff. Whatever..." Kikyou said looking away while Kagome again turned to me.
"So Mr. Taisho did you enjoy our show." Kagome asked taking a seat down in front of me and ordering a Heineken beer. She instantly had my attention.
"Sesshoumaru, and yes your show was very enjoyable, Kagome." I corrected. She blushed at the sound of my voice and the intimacy of how I said her name.
"Agh! Kagome it's twelve, you know how Miroku gets if I'm not home by twelve thirty! We have to go, see you guys tomorrow." Sango said as she grabbed Kagome and started dragging her toward the door.
"Well it would be nice to see you again, Sesshoumaru." Kagome said pronouncing my name just as sensually as I did hers, as she left. I watched her intently until her figure disappeared behind the door.
"Hmm, so what type of Youkai are you?" Kikyou said as she took Kagome's forgotten beer and cracked it open taking a long draw from it.
"Inu." I said looking at her curiously she was very similar to Kagome and yet they acted nothing alike.
"Inu Youkai, just like Inuyasha... If you like my sister, you better not hurt her because if you do, I will personally come after you and cut off what makes you a man and shove it down your throat, I'll torture you so bad you'll wish that Satan himself would take you from my grasp and that death will come." Kikyou said casually as she drank again from the bottle.
My eyes widened at the thought and Naraku choked on his supposedly tenth scotch of the night.
But the only thing I could think to say about her very graphic threat was "Kagome is your sister?"
"Yep and you'd better be good to her... or God help you." Kikyou said her voice like Death warmed up and in a cocktail dress.
"Of course he'll be good to our dear Kagome... He's an Inu, a full-blooded one too, they take care of girls like daddy's their daughters." Naraku said as he hiccupped and put his arm over my shoulder. "Or daughter's their daddy's or something... like that." Naraku was obviously drunk now. Kikyou after quizzing all the waitresses concluded that Naraku had had over thirty scotches and a few beers, the thirty scotches alone would have made a Youkai piss-ass drunk, but Naraku held his liquor and was only somewhat drunk. I picked up my documents and left after Kikyou said that she'd stay with him to see if she could get him sober enough to drive home.
I sat in front of my computer accessing the situation. Naraku's problem was worse than I thought, not only was his company's financial information easy access from any computer but everyone who worked in his company or his adjoining company's information was also just as easily viewed. Like poor Miss Gladys McKenzie whose financial records were everywhere; with a few clicks of my mouse the problem was easily solved though.
My phone rang for the millionth time today, I grudgingly got up to get, though I already knew who it is.
"Yes, Naraku?" I said sounding bored while still typing on my computer.
"Hey Sesshoumaru, are you going to come back to the club tonight?" Naraku asked excitedly. Naraku was almost in constant contact with me and it wasn't even about the computer problems that he had it was only about the club, the girls and the Miko contract that he now had on him. His conversations as it were, not all that boring as long as he talked about the girls, specifically Kagome. She was the one that interested me the most and it was because of her why I'd probably be looped into going with him to the club.
"Sesshoumaru? Sesshoumaru are you still there?" Naraku asked probably for the sixth time.
"Huh, yeah sure I'll go to the club with you." I said as Naraku started yapping about his Miko Contract again. I put the phone on the desk letting him believe I was listening as I resumed typing, waiting until 7 o'clock where I'd then go to the club where I'd meet Naraku who would probably tell me everything I was told on the phone again. Then he'd order a couple of Scotches and me a beer and we would listen to the singers until Kagome, Sango and Kikyou would come on then he'd go completely insane. Then I would have to carry a completely hammered Naraku back to Kikyou's car where she would take him home. I knew this was going to happen because it had happened... every day since last week when I first went.
And yet every time I went there it seemed like the first, as long as Kagome noticed me, I was content to just sit there listening to her and Naraku argue about the most trivial of things. I hung up on the still talking Naraku, deep in thought. The phone rang again, I ignored it continuing on my computer. The phone rang a couple more times until it finally stood silent. Then my answering machine came on, but instead of Naraku's more than slightly annoying womanizing voice it was a smooth, feminine voice. It was Kagome.
"Uh, I'm not quite sure if this is the right number, considering it was Naraku who gave it to me. But if this is Sesshoumaru's number I just wanted to... –" Kagome said nervously from the answering machine.
I picked up the phone quickly. "Hello."
"Ah, Sesshoumaru, I was just calling to ask you, ask you if you can help me with some stuff..." Kagome said the sentence trailing off.
"What sort of Stuff?" I asked suggestively as I stopped typing and then smirked as I listened to the very silent Kagome who seemed to be choking on the other end of the phone.
"Stop saying stuff like it's an implication for other things." After so many nights in the bar everyone pretty much realised I was a pervert and most of my perverseness was directed toward my dear, sweet Kagome.
"I just wanted to ask you if you can help me plan a party for Sango and Miroku, her boyfriend. It's their second year anniversary, and Kikyou and Naraku are absolutely useless when it comes to planning a party. Kikyou is so depressing when it comes to planning things and Naraku gets lazy and drunk after a while... so I was wondering if you could help me. If you're not too busy..."
"Well I have work..." I started. I could practically see the disappointment through the phone.
"That's okay, sorry if I-"
"Wait a minute, I have work but I can help you in my spare time." I said smiling at the phone as her happiness shone through the phone killing the disappointment instantly.
"Ok then I'll see you at the club tonight and tomorrow can you come by my place? If you have to you can bring your computer and work while I make calls and such." She chattered excitedly making more preparations for my arrival to help her. I chuckled at her excitedness. She was somewhat like Naraku if she had one thing on her mind it will be springtime in hell before you get them to shutup about it, no wonder they were friends.
After listening to everything Kagome had to say, I hung up and got ready to go to the club. I looked around my small apartment, it was clean and empty. No pictures on the wall or unnecessary furniture, a couple chairs, a small TV, and my desk with my computer and laptop on it everything on it religiously organized. This made me stop and wonder what Kagome's place would look like. I could picture it now bright pink walls stuff littering the floor undergarments hanging from the ceiling, clothes, hairbrushes, costumes everywhere and to make it all the worse I can picture a cat. A big fat cat, one that she'll call Fluffy-bunny or some ridiculous name like that and I know it'll just be sitting there in the midst of the chaos just smirking at me with its stupid cat face. I inwardly growled maybe I should tell Kagome I can't help her, but as soon as the thoughts reach my mind a picture of an unhappy, pouting Kagome comes to mind. I'd have to deal with my mind's image of Kagome's apartment even if it was horrible. Kagome must be happy.
I quickly walked out of the apartment and into my car, a simple Honda model, and drove off. The more I thought about my life the more it seemed ridiculous; I was a multi-millionaire who lived in a small apartment with a cheap car and mediocre things. The only thing that was really of value that I owned were the swords father gave me, Tokijin, Bakusaiga and Tenseiga and they were currently in a dark, mold covered box in the closet.
I stepped through the gate at the entrance, with a quick 'hello' to everyone I sat down next to Naraku who had already gone through a couple glasses of this time nice, normal Sake.
"I see you're trying to keep sober tonight." I said casually to Naraku.
"Not sober, just soberer. The day when I come to this club and I'm perfectly sober is the day when Kikyou has kept her promise to castrate me." Naraku said taking another swig of sake.
"Well for your sake I hope you stay drunk for the rest of your life." I chuckled as I poured myself a glass of Sake and clunked it with his.
"I swear Naraku every time I see you you're drinking." Kikyou said from behind me as she pulled out a chair and sat down beside Naraku and took the whole bottle of Sake and poured it down her throat.
I just stared open mouthed at her speechless. Naraku started to whine. "Kikyouuuuu! Every time I get a bottle of Sake you do that! You know that cost me good money right and yet every time. Why can't be like your sister, and act like your sane!" Naraku finished and started to bang his head against the table.
"Oh, hi everyone! Kikyou what did you do to Naraku now? I thought we'd agree to not drink off all his Sake. Sesshoumaru can you come with me?" Kagome said quickly scolding Kikyou who had a very bored expression on her face and dragging me up from the table and toward a dark hallway in the back.
She ushered me quickly through the hallway her moist hand in mine. She was so close her scent emanating off of her, I could just bend down and touch her butt. I could tell her it was an accident that I tripped and fell. But life would not have it that way because as soon as I was going to she turned sharply into a dark room pulling me after her.
She told me to shut the door and lock it. I heard her shuffle around the room and then finally to the other side and switch on the lights.
What I saw shocked me, there was a bed, various sex devices and a very sexy Kagome now dressed in a short little black and pink dress with a whip, easily viewable thong, and a garter that was almost to her upper thigh. She sat on the bed waiting for me.
Ooooh What's going to happen here? is a suddenly horny Sesshoumaru going to get his wish for a tasty Kagome. Maybe he will I don't know yet, but I might have to change the rating of this story the way its going from a T to an M.
Please Review and tell me if Im doing this right or wrong or if you like my story. Thanks for all the Favourites and Alerts though! I feel so... Loved (^O^) I actually almost want to cry. (T.T)
