Need A Lift?
'This is a perfect way to end a day.' Sesshomaru thought sarcastically as he waited for the tow truck to arrive. An hour later Sesshomaru saw, from his rearview mirror, some headlights approaching through the mist. A few seconds later a tow truck drove up pulling off on the side of the highway in front of his car.
He was surprised to see a stunning woman with long black hair tied back in a pony tail, step out of the cab and start walking over to him.
"I'm guessing you're the one who called for a tow." Kagome said with a smile that could brighten up anyone's day.
"Um… yes. You're the driver?"
"If it's a problem a can call another driver for you. We're really busy tonight so it will probably be another hour or so."
"No need to do that. I'm sorry I didn't mean to offend you. I've never seen a female tow truck driver before."
"Don't worry about it. I get that reaction all the time. Well let's get this baby up on my truck and get the two of you off the highway."
Sesshomaru couldn't take his eyes off of Kagome as the bed of the truck rose up and slid down just inches in front of the tires of his car. He watched as she kneeled down and reached under the car to hook chains to the front axel of the car. The wench then pulled the car onto the bed of the truck. Then the bed slid back down and flat. Kagome then climbed up on the bed of the truck to hook chains to the back wheel axel then pushed a lever to take up the slack in the chains.
"All set. Let's head out." Kagome said once she was finished securing the car.
"So what made you decide to become a tow truck driver?" Sesshomaru asked.
"I needed a job." Kagome said with a laugh.
"That makes sense." Sesshomaru said then added nervously. "Are you working tomorrow night?"
"Yes I am. But I'm off the following night." She replied with a sly smile suspecting that he was asking her out on a date.
"Would you like to go out for dinner then?"
"Sure. I'll pick you up at seven?"
Hesitating, not sure if he should let a female pick him up for dinner, he finally replied. "I'll see you at seven."
A/N: this idea came from an add in the help wanted section of the newspaper. Yes it was for a tow truck driver and yes I am going to apply for it ( I doubt they will hire a girl but you never know) I'm down one job and need a new one. Plus I think it would be fun and funny to be a female tow truck driver.
