Inuyasha crossover Avengers

Chapter 4: Almost Normal

Kagome had expected her last memory of Tony Stark to be when she left him at the club to be swarmed by girls looking to "hook up" with him. He is someone who feeds off the attention given to him, one that lives in the eyes of the media and does not mind it or cares about it, in fact he did just what he wants without a care of the consequences. And though she sometimes takes on the later, Kagome still made the effort to clear up her mess at times, if not has help from her family to silence the media, which was something rare still.

Her last morning with Shippo in New York was spent having a cozy breakfast in the lounge of their hotel over looking Central Park. Just a meeting and they will be on their private jet home bound and be back on Japan soil and breathing in the air soon enough.

"Let's go shopping," Kagome said randomly, looking up for her laptop as she looked out to the scenery of their breakfast location.

Shippo smiled over his cup to tea a slow sly smile spreading across his features as he caught Kagome's eyes when she glanced over. "I know just the place,"

They entered into a Victoria's Secret store with a broadly smiling Shippo as he linked arms with Kagome happily humming a tune as he dragged her straight to the section where the latest designs were on display. Kagome rolled her eyes at his behavior like a child shopping for sweets, but she did not complain about it either and broke away from him to browse around with interest as she picked out a few to try on later.

"That Swarovski studded one in blue black will look good on you,"

"Mr. Stark, such a coincidence bumping into you here, looking for some lingerie for yourself? " She mused, turning to walk in another direction to browse at the other products they have in store.

"Kagome, I've found the perfect few sets that you have to try," Shippo purred as he came towards her with a sales girl tailing behind of him as he held up a few sets of lingerie in his hand.

"Well enjoy browsing around Mr. Stark, maybe you should try on the red teddy set," she pointed in the direction of said set with a laughing tone as she walked towards Shippo whom she met halfway, linking arms with him as they went towards the fitting room.

She glanced back at him only once to see him standing alone as a sales girl went up to him to help assist in his potential purchase or maybe something else. The firs of her thoughts caused Kagome to giggle a little at it, but instead walked away with a sway to her hips as she showed Shippo her own selections. Least to say that they left the building with several shopping bags and made quite a few other shopping stops before they left New York that evening.

The business meeting that they were supposed to have with Stark Industries never happened, and neither did they both ever bothered much about it, preferring to leave it to Sesshoumaru to handle. Meeting Tony Stark in person at outside of work even more easily than in his own office already says a lot about his personality and such poor working ethics is in her view.

Life went back to normal very quickly for her, it's the usual work, and the weekly meet up with her group of friends from high school. Nothing about them change much, except perhaps for their single status to dating and one who was ready to be engaged, and just awaiting for the proposal to come as they predicted. It was the only normalcy in her life aside from her family, but then again they were a little different too.

"Kagome, did you hear? Hojo is getting engaged!"

"Oh that's nice,"

"Are you sure Kagome? You guys were dating in the past, we had thought for sure that you would both be dating still or at least be married with a family of your own," one of her friends rambled on as she drank her wine, refilling it as they continued their chatter even without much of her input.

Ever since the time that she told them that it was over between Inuyasha and her, they had been trying their hardest to push her into dating Hojo, it was almost too tiring. Most especially when Hojo is not even her type, there was just something about him that is lacking, and since returning back from Sengoku Jidai permanently, the many centuries has changed her for the worse against males.

It was a good thing that they decided to choose a hip bar in Shinjuku area, at least there she did not really have to hear what they were talking about, usually just nodding and acknowledging it once in a while as she tune herself more to the music. She was the only one amongst them not looking for a relationship, it was just too difficult to maintain, and aside from that Kagome could not help but push those guys away before they got even closer than needed.

Thinking back about it, they were all pretty good looking in a more roguish manner, though of course there are other redeeming quality to them, not that all of them as well. Some of them can be so endearing, a sweet talker and charmer, though of course there are the ones that were just so sweet, that she felt almost bad for them at times, until they started becoming a little too much. More often Shippo would swoop in to her rescue, playing the role of her current suitor when the ones could not get over her, or any roles in fact that will save her from that predicament.

"Let's go!"

"What?"

"To the latest club of course, I heard so much about it from my colleagues and I'm just dying to bring you guys there!" Eri said, overly excited as Yuka and her both linked arms on either side of her as they practically dragged her out of the bar. Well at least there is a perk to the next venue, she might finally be able to have some fun.
