Chapter Four: Individual Success
Recap:
Kagura used to work for Naraku Onigumo, but now got her comic published by Clamp. At the same time, Sesshoumaru ordered his agent and servant, Jaken, to find him a date (to get Kagura-his ex-girlfriend-out of his mind).

Sesshoumaru
Sesshoumaru woke up the next morning, showered, teeth brushed, and dressed. Jaken told him that he would meet his date at the restaurant just around his mansion. He was still worried. What if Kagura saw him like this? He knew what she could say. She would say that she was right when she broke up with him… and she would be disappointed in him, like she's always been.
"ENOUGH ABOUT KAGURA!"Sesshoumaru told himself. "She isn't for you anymore!"
He pulled himself together, put on some sunglasses (to hide himself from the crazy fans), and went to the restaurant as Jaken described. It was a small bakery, and they were serving breakfast. He saw Jaken sitting in one of the outside tables. He walked over to him, noticing that he was the only one sitting there.
"Where is she?"
"Sesshoumaru-Sama… there you are! You're late."
"I SAID where is she?"
"I swear she'll be here immediately. I know you hate to wait but-"
Sesshoumaru stepped on Jaken's foot. "Who said I HATE to wait? You don't have permission to make assumptions on me."
Jaken looked hushed. Sesshoumaru was annoyed. Sesshoumaru was always like this, so… Jaken didn't have to gasp of surprise. There was complete silence for a good five minutes, and then SHE finally arrived.
She was wearing a Hollister sweatshirt with her hood on, since there was some sprinkling. She looked like she was late for work, and almost rushed into the bakery before Jaken finally stopped her.
"AHEM! Wench… are you forgetting something?"
She turned around to face Jaken; her face looked like it was sorry. Then, she looked at Sesshoumaru. She looked like she could see through the sunglasses like her eyes were a fly's. By the streaks or sweat on her face, Sesshoumaru knew that she was nervous. But he didn't see what was coming next; the so called "wench" went up to Sesshoumaru and gave him a hell of a hug! Nice first-impression…
Sesshoumaru was disgusted at first, but then he realized that she was his date. Jaken was the first one to make the objection.
"Stop making a scene, baka!" he insulted. "There are people here ya know, and I'm sure my master's clothes aren't washable with hot water!"
"Oh, I'm so sorry Jaken-Sama." She apologized. She finally removed her hood, so that her face was revealed to Sesshoumaru. Looking at her, Sesshoumaru almost felt himself melting.
She had big vicious blue-grey eyes. Her bangs were neatly separated, and her hair was tied into a pony tail. To Sesshoumaru, she looked beautiful. One of the most beautiful women around these parts. Of course… that's what SHE thought about HIM too.
Jaken finally broke the silence. "Lord Sesshoumaru, meet Sara-Chan. Sara, meet my master, Sesshoumaru-Sama."
She looked at him, smiled, and offered a hand for a handshake.
Sesshoumaru considered the hand before returning it. Was it really right to fall in love again? He messed up his old relationship… who knows if he should really try again?
Who cares! Geez… "Nice to meet you, Sara." He shook her hand, and realized that he had actually felt some static when they touched.
"Well… sorry about that… reaction…" She apologized. "It's my first time meeting you… you know girls are crazy about you, right?"
"How sweet of her…" Jaken intruded. "I told I would find you someone like her in time!"
Sesshoumaru was still observing Sara. She looked nice enough… but somehow… she looked conceiving, in a way. He ignored it, and continued the conversation.
"So… Sara… how old are you?" Sesshoumaru asked curiously.
She smiled her smile again. "I'm 24. What about you?"
It was perfect; she was one year younger than him.
"I'm 25…" Sesshoumaru paused for a second. "Since it's your first time meeting me… maybe we could do something fun… I'll show you my world; you can be a special VIP."
What the hell was he doing? He felt pathetic saying every one of those words. When he dated Kagura, he never was the one to insist on dates. Usually, he just sat there like a couch potato, waiting for Kagura to say "I love you." And then he would follow. Kagura told him that he was incorrigible. He never forgave her for saying it. He missed those days, and regretted them too. Now, he actually had to WORK for a relationship.
"Okay! Let's go!" Sara encouraged. "Well… after the rain is over…"
"Sure… I'll pick you up around 5 in the afternoon; we can go catch a private movie premiere… also ride in a limo to get there!"
Sara squealed in excitement. "Really? You don't look like the person who would do that." That stung, HARD. "I have to work… I'll see you at 5, okay?"
"By the way… where do you live?"
"Oh… Jaken has my address… you can ask him for it…" She opened the door, but then looked back. "Hey, how about you pick me up at 4… the earlier we leave the movie, the better."
"Sure." Sesshoumaru watched her wave and get into the bakery. "That was… BLURY." He told Jaken.
Jaken tried to console Sesshoumaru. "Don't worry, my lord, I'm sure she wants to be with you too!"
"She only wants to be with me because I'm famous… I can see that."
"B-but…" Jaken pleaded. "I went through all the trouble finding her!"
Sesshoumaru looked sympathetic. "Okay… fine… I will give it try. But as soon as it starts to get weird… I'm breaking up with her, k?"
"Break up with her whenever you like… but… always give it a try." Jaken said that before getting back into the limo.

Kagura
"Kagura, your comic is addictive!" Sango yelled in her face.
Kagura sweat dropped for the 10th time that day. "Yes… I know it is… you're obsessed with manga aren't you?"
"I know!!! Isn't it awesome?!" Kagura could tell that Sango was excited. "Crap… I was supposed to go get lunch 3 hours ago… but seriously… I can't stop reading!"
"Sango. Listen, Sango. I.AM.STARVING. Getting lunch only takes you 10 minutes! But we've been starving for 3 hours. THREE hours!"
A tired moan came from the cube room outside of the office.
Sango rolled her eyes. "FINE! But I get to read your unfinished comic too, ok?"
"YES, Sango! Now, go get the lunch!" Kagura watched Sango leave, a little bit disappointed. She went back to the computer, and finished lining the rest of her comic. After a few minutes, her stomach was growling, along with 10 other stomachs.
What was taking Sango so long?
Oh, she was so hungry!
(X)
Sango walked across the street to the restaurant "Nozomi's." She was the 3rd person in line. It isn't a long wait She thought to herself. She could smell the food in the restaurant, and suddenly her stomach growled.
"Damn, what was I thinking?" Sango murmured. "I kept my stomach hungry for 3 hours over a comic!"
When it was her turn, she decided to order 12 teriyaki combo meals. She laid her credit card down and resumed sighing.
"Thank you." A familiar voice said. "Hey, it's you!"
Sango turned around recklessly, only to see something she hadn't seen for 5 years. She was surprised; she never thought that she would bump into this when she was getting lunch for her co-workers.
She didn't know what to say. Her whole body was frozen, and yet, it was twitching at the same time. She blinked her eyes a few times to make sure she was seeing what she was seeing. And yes, it was. She gasped, and 10 seconds later, she finally spoke up.
"M-m-m-m…" She sounded like she couldn't speak. "M-m-iroku…?"
"C'mon Sango, you're really THAT stunned?" Came the rich, sexy, and well-known voice.
She shook her head. "What are you doing here…? I never thought you worked here."
"Well, I do! Now!" His hands twitched, as if wanting to touch something. "Uh… Sango, come over here for a sec…!"
"Nice try." Sango could be a "mirokuhandtoligist." "What's up with you these days? Are you two-timing people? Or worse… 30 timing?"
Miroku sighed heavily. "Sango, oh Sango, how you wound me so…"
Sango almost laughed. "Enough with that nonsense, my co-workers are hungry, so hurry up with the food!"
"But I haven't seen you in 5 years! It's only equal that we sit down and talk!"
Her stomach growled again. "Shut up, perv, and get me my order!"
"Fine, fine! You win!" Miroku sighed and carried the order from the kitchen to Sango. Sango always won at these things. She had to keep that pervert in line, didn't she? Or else the world would be overwhelmed with his "pervertness." Right? Right.
She took the plastic bag, and walked away without a "good-bye." But she did look back at him…because she wanted to. She didn't see him 5 years, and she missed his perverted personality. She hated to admit it, but she did.
She crossed the street and back to the company. Everybody would be so glad that she brought lunch, and her stomach would finally be filled!
I would enjoy getting lunch. Sango thought. Since HE'S now there…
Okay! Done again! I hope you guys like it. I put more romance in it… and I'm going to go in depth with the Miroku/ Sango in the next few chapters. But, really, I like writing this! Please review! Thankyou!
Bad news... I won't be updating next week-cuz of thanksgiving. I just don't think I can squeeze in a rushed chapter at that time, besides, I have a lot of homework during break... I'm sorry, but it has to be moved to next next week!
Ja Ne!
