Chapter Three *Beta-read & Detailed/co-written by Sailor Peach*
8=============8
After she was done her work, Kagome swung by Sango's office. Everyone was staying late and getting overtime this night, but Kagome was in need of some serious girl talk. She decided to steal Sango and catch a quick dinner at the diner a few blocks away from their office building.
8=============8
Kagome looked down at her menu, checking out the dinner specials for the night. She narrowed it down between a few selections and was playing "e-ni me-ni my-ni mo" to make her decision. But honestly she wasn't all that hungry, the pictures in the menu didn't seem too appealing and she had to much on her mind anyways. This waiter was awfully impatient though. She could see him tapping his foot out of what she guessed was annoyance. Sighing she looked up to their server to order.
"You know, I think I'll just have a soda... I've suddenly lost my appetite.." she said. 'I can always heat up some leftovers when I get home,' she thought.
"What would you like Miss? We have Coca-cola products," the waiter said.
"A regular coke is fine," Kagome said with a smile.
"Is that it for you Miss?" he asked.
"Yeah, that will be it," she sighed.
"Alrighty... And for you Miss?" he asked, a slight blush tinting his cheeks as he looked to Sango.
Sango wasn't really paying him any mind, she was twirling her ponytail, trying to decide between a deluxe cheeseburger and a buffalo chicken cheesesteak.
"Miss?" he asked, his cheeks getting a bit redder.
"Oh yeah, I will have... The... Cheeseburger deluxe platter, but hold the tomato please."
"And to drink?"
"Diet coke please," she said. If she was going to eat a cheeseburger she was at least gonna cut out the calories that a regular coke had.
The girls handed the waiter their menus, both noting how flustered the young man got after speaking to Sango.
"What was up with him?" Sango asked, after he walked away.
"Oh don't play dumb Sango, that boy was eyeing you up since we walked through those doors." Kagome so matter-o-factly stated.
"Did you see how hard he was blushing?" Sango giggled out. "I just don't understand why I have this effect on the opposite sex."
"You sound like one of those egotistical magazine cover models Sango," Kagome chuckled out. "Every boy always loses themselves in your presence. You are the epitome of 'ultimate amazon woman'."
"Jealous much there Kagome?" Sango snickered.
Kagome just smirked at her and raised an eyebrow. She needed to talk to her best friend about the altercation in Inuyasha's office. she couldn't talk to her about it at work because there were eavesdroppers, specifically two bozo's named Miroku and Hojou, that she did not want privileged to the conversation.
"So spill already, what the hell happened with the Almighty Inuyasha?" she snickered out.
Kagome took a deep breath, preparing to dish out on all the gory detail. As she was about to start, the waiter came back with their drinks, a big blushing grin on his face. 'What the hell,' she thought, feigning a smile for the guy.
"Thanks," Kagome and Sango answered simultaneously.
"Your food will be up in just a few minutes Miss," he stuttered out, turning back for the kitchen.
Finally alone, Kagome begun telling Sango, about everything that happened, starting with the Dakki case details and what she messed up.
"Oh that's what you forgot to do? Call the guardians? I was wondering why Inuyasha sent me a memo about meeting with them in the morning," she said. "But wait, what do you have to do then?"
Kagome sighed in annoyance.
"Your little boy wonder and I have to go catalog the whole crime scene for pain-in-the-boss Inuyasha."
"What? Why?" Sango questioned.
"Because Mr. Anal wants to make sure the FBI didn't miss a crumb on the floor," she muttered. Just as Sango was about to reply, she put a big grin on her face because the waiter was coming back with her food. You see, Sango has a thing where she loves to use her looks to fluster men whenever she could. She wasn't a flooze or anything, she just found it so entertaining.
"Here's your cheeseburger deluxe platter Miss, hold the tomato," he said putting the plate down in front of her, blushing furiously. "Can I get you anything else?"
"I'm good for now, thank you," she said smiling. The waiter didn't even acknowledge Kagome. As he turned from the table he tucked a tiny slip of paper next to Sango's plate. She raised her eyebrows in suspicion plucking up the paper. When she opened it a huge grin was plastered on her face.
"Oh what is it Sango?" Kagome asked.
"It's his number, and a short message," she said. "It says he thinks I'm stunning and wants to take me out..."
Kagome just rolled her eyes. Sango was going to brag about this for days, which Kagome did not feel like dealing with. This was Sango's only downside. When her ego gets boosted she can be a bit overbearing. Kagome hoped that wouldn't be the case this time.
"So you gonna call him then?" Kagome asked, unamused. "Maybe ask for his address too?
"Ah, he already left though, maybe I should slip my number in his back pocket next time he walks by," she snickered. "Maybe I should give him mine? I bet he would stalk me. Do you think he's the silent but deadly type?" Sango droned on asking questions and saying weird things until she was done her cheeseburger. Finally, when she was just picking on the side of french fries she paid attention to Kagome's expression.
Kagome roller her eyes again, and crosses her arms over her chest, showing Sango how annoying she was with this shit. Sango winced slightly, knowing that she did it again.
"So about Inuyasha, what haven't you told me yet Kagome?" she asked, feeling a bit sheepish.
Kagome just sighed and gave her a blank look, and took a sip of her coke.
"I already told you about the case. Miroku and I have to go catalog everything, for us and for the district attorney. We have to make sure the FBI didn't miss anything and..."
"I don't mean about that Kagome I mean what happened with Inuyasha? I know he didn't just scold you or else you wouldn't be so flustered like you are right now and every time I've said his name, so spill it already!"
"He was just... Weirder then usual... He was like ignoring me, and putting off yelling at me, and then being creepy as hell staring at me when I wasn't looking. But I could feel his eyes burning into me... It doesn't help that he's so handso..." Kagome smacked her hand over her mouth. "Oops..."
Sango had the absolute biggest shit eating grin plastered on her face.
"I knew it! You have a crush on him!" Sango exclaimed.
"Sango... I do not..." Kagome started.
The waiter returned. Blushing harder then ever.
"Can I get you ladies anything else?" he asked, gazing at Sango.
"Just the check and a doggie bag for my fries," Sango told him. "Please."
"Yes Miss," he stuttered and ran off towards the kitchen again.
"Don't you dare lie to me Kagome. The sexual tension between you two is so hot it could fry an egg! So what's up already?"
"He's the boss Sango, even if I was attracted to him.."
"Oh shut up you know you're hot for him!" Sango giggled out. Then she suddenly got a serious look. Oh great the waiter was back.
"Here you are, a doggie bag and the check, please pay at the front register when you are ready. But please, take your time," he said with a now even creepier smile.
"Alrighty then..." Kagome said.
They both pulled out their wallets, pulling out some bills. Kagome put a one on the table, and Sango put down two. She also fished a pen out of her purse and was scribbling on the back of the note the waiter gave her. Sango smirked up at Kagome, folded the paper and tucked it back on the plate.
"Let's go Kags," Sango said, pulling her bag onto her shoulder and turning towards the register. They both looked up at the clock at the same time while paying. Shit. They were due back in five minutes. Both girls sweat dropped, then ran out after paying.
"Whoa, whoa, slow down there Kagome!"
"Don't tell me to slow down Sango! I'm going to be late! I don't feel like getting a weird scolding again!"
"Yea you do! Now slow down!" Sango laughed, grabbing her friends hand, making her walk more leisurely.
"Kagome and Inuyasha sitting in a tree... K-I-S-S-I-N-G, first comes love, then come..." Sango was interrupted by Kagome yanking her arm and quickening their pace back. But Sango didn't fail to notice the crimson blush on Kagome's face. So she giggled and let Kagome lead the way back.
Before they walked back in the building, Kagome turned to Sango.
"So what did you write on that piece of paper for the waiter anyways Sango?"
8=============8'I guess she wasn't interested,' the waiter thought. He continued bussing their table. At least she wasn't offended enough to not tip.
"Hey isn't that..." he whispered, picking up a piece of paper. 'Maybe it's her number,' he thought.
It read:
Sorry mister waiter, but I already have one beast pursuing me, don't need another! Don't worry though, you will always have rosy palm and her five sisters! Xo
The waiter crumpled the paper in anger, throwing it into the bus tub with the rest of the trash and dirty dishes.
