"Maybe I should go back," she muttered.
"You've worked to hard to go back," a voice said from beside her. She jumped and turned to face the person who had randomly suddenly beside her.
"Masato! You scared me," she breathed. Masato glanced down at his cousin before grabbing her wrist,"Hey! What are you doing?!" Kagome struggled in his grasp as he pulled her towards the entrance to the building.
"Like I said, you've worked to hard to quit now," Masato repeated. Kagome stopped struggling and allowed herself to be pulled into the stared at the back of her cousins head,"He's right...I've studied too damn hard to quit now!"
He released her wrist when they entered the building. Kagome stopped and stared in awe. (a/n: ya'll know what the inside looks like...im not explaining it.)
"Woah..." she whispered. Masato looked back to his cousin to see she had stopped to examine the inside of the Academy. He sighed and laid his hnd on her back and guided her to the classroom where they were taking the exam,"Isn't this place amazing Masato!?"
"Very, now come along. You can sight see after the exam," he told her. Kagome nodded and the two took their seats beside one another. There weren't many student in the classroom because it was still early. Soon the classroom began to fill with a mixture of excited and nervous students. Kagome laid her head on the desk and waited for the test to start. After a while, when it seemed like everyone was here, another girl walked in with a red headed boy. The girl had short, reddish-orange hair and golden green eyes. The guy had messy bright red hair with similar eye color. The two quickly took a seat in the front of the classroom. Then the exam began.
~After the Exam~
Kagome stretched her arms above her head and stood up. The exam was finally over.
"Hey Masato...huh? Masato?" She turned to ask him something but he was already gone. Kagomes eye twitched,"That bastard!" Kagome sighed and gathered her things. As she was walking out the door she nearly ran into the red haired boy.
"Oh sorry I didn't see you," he apologized and then looked at her,"Hey are you new? I haven't seen you around before."
"Its ok. Ya im new. I'm Kagome Higurashi!" She smiled at the boy.
"Ittoki Otoya!" he introduced.
"It's nice to meet you Ittoki!" Kagome said.
"I'll see ya around!" he bid her farewell and headed towards the other girl that had walked in with him. Kagome turned away and left the building.
"Once I get my hands on that boy he's gonna wish he never met me!" Kagome hissed quietly to herself. She waited outside the gate for her ride to arrive. She had her arms crossed over her chest and wore an angry experssion. As she leaning against the wall in all her angry glory, she happened to overhear a couple girls talking.
"Wouldn't it be great to get a record deal!" one of the girls said excitedly.
"Ya! It'd be better if it was Tashio's record company. I hear that the music producer is none other than Sesshomaru Taisho!" the other voice exclaimed.
"Sesshomaru...surely it couldn't be the Sesshomaru I know..." she thought to herself as Shinings limo pulled up. She got in the car and tapped on the glass that seperated her and the driver.
"Instead of taking me to Shinings place...willl you go to Taisho's Record Company please?" Kagome asked. The driver nodded his head and off they were to the Record company. Kagome couldn't help but be a little nervous. What if it was the Sesshomaru from the Feudal Era?
"Miss Kagome, we have arrived," the driver said. Kagome nodded,
"Wait for me out here," she said and climbed out of the door. She took a deep breath and entered the building and headed straight for the secretary. She slammed her hands on her desk startling the poor woman.
"M-may I help you?" She stuttered.
"Yes. The Music Producer Sesshomaru Taisho...do you have a photo of him?" Kagome asked. The woman gave her a confused look but nodded and produced a photo from her laptop. Kagome stumbled back a bit after seeing the photo. It was him. He still had the same long silver hair and the golden eye. The only thing that was missing was the cresenct moon that was on his forehead and the magenta strips that were on his cheeks and eyes.
"One more thing...What floor and room number is Mr. Taisho on?" She asked sweetly.
"The very top floor. Its the only room with a red velvet door. Its not good to disturb Mr. Taisho right now, he's making a record..."when she looked up Kagome was gone,"Deal..."
Kagome stormed up the 50 billion flights of stairs and down the hallway where she found the door the secratary was talking about. She took a deep breath lifted her leg and kicked the door open startling everyone inside.
"Sesshomaru! You bastard!" Kagome growled as she marched behind his desk and grabbed the colllar of his shirt, completely ignoring the others in the room. However she did hear someone sigh.
"Long time no see," he said calmly.
"You've been here for god knows how long, working a record company and you couldn't spend an hour to come and visit me! You have no idea how horrible it was to leave everyone. The least you could have done was come and tell what happened with Miroku and Sango and Shippo!" Kagome yelled. Sesshomaru stayed very calm. When she finished yelling at him he took her wrists and pryed them from his shirt.
"Yes Its been a while Kagome. I would have come to see you sooner however i've been busy lately. You haven't changed since the last time we meet," he smiled, actually smiled, at her,"Now if you do not mind...I was in the middle of making a record deal." Sesshomaru motioned towards the men in front of his desk. Kagomes eyes met Masato's.
"Oh and where the hell did you go?" Kagome asked marching straight towards Masato.
"Here," he replied.
"You could have at least TOLD me ya know!" She snapped.
"Who's this Masato? Your girlfriend?" Kagome looked over at a rather short blonde haired blue eyed boy wearing a fandora.
"I'll have you know, shorty, this is actually my cousin!" Kagome glared at him. The boy glared back.
"Well aren't you going to intorduce her to us?" The familar voice of Ittoki Otoya asked.
Masato sighed,"Everyone this is my cousin Kagome, Kagome this is the members of the band Starish: Syo Kurusu, the short one, Tokiya Ichinose, Otoya Ittoki, myself, Ren Jinguji and Natsuki Shinomiya," he poointed out each of them.
"W-wait...Natsuki is that you?" Kagome asked staring at the tall blonde boy. He smiled at her.
"Long time no see Kags," Kagome launched herself into his arms.
"What the hell. First she is acquainted with a famous music producer, then she's Masato's cousin and now she knows Natsuki?!" Syo yelled furiously.
"Kagome and I are childhood friends!"Natsuki announced.
"Well...its lovely to meet you, Ka-Go-Me," the one known as Ren took her hand kissed it and winked, causing a blush to form on her cheeks.
"Nice to see ya again Kagome!" Otoya grinned and waved.
"Yep!" Kagome smiled at the red headed boy.
"Kagome, would you step out in the hall so I can finish talking to these boys," Sesshomaru finally said.
"Fine, but we have a lot to discuss later," She smiled once more at the group of boys and walked out the door, completely aware of a pair of eyes watching her every move.
