At 6:45 am Kagome woke up to a loud alarm clock next to her ear. She laid there a moment before getting up and going in and taking a shower, then got dressed in a coral bell sleeve top and a black mini skirt before going to grab a bit to eat.
After she ate she made a fruit salad and a small container of vegetable sticks and a bottle of water. When she was done she placed them in a bag and grabbed her purse and shoes and her lunch then headed to her car. Arriving at the building she unlocked the door and headed to the lunch room to put her lunch away, then headed back to the desk to analyze what needed to be done. She started off listening to and writing the messages down before placing them in the right attorneys boxes. She then started filing, lastly she started on the typing. At about ten minutes to nine she stopped typing to go and unlock the door to the public and returned to the typing.
"Morning Miss Higurashi." Kagome looked up to see Mr. SIlvermoon.
"The same to you Mr. Silvermoon." Kagome answered as she went back to typing and he went to his office. Not long after Mr. Taisho got to his office did he come back out and up to the desk.
"I'm missing a document that was left to be typed."
"Would it be this page?" Kagome handed what she was reading to do the typing and handed it to him.
"Yes that is the page."
"I have a few more lines to be typed. If you would like I could bring it to you when I am done."
"That would be fine." He turned and went back to his office and she went back to typing the paper he needed. Fifteen minutes later Kagome knocked on the open door of Mr. SIlvermoon's office.
"Here you are sir. If there are any corrections that I need to go back over then I will gladly re-type the paper." She handed the paper to InuTaisho. He took the paper and looked it over.
"There seems to be no re-typing needed. Thank you Kagome." She headed back out of the door.
"Where's the Blackstone's paper that was on the desk to be typed?" She heard a icy tone behind her as she approached the desk she was working at until Sango came back.
"There was no page to be typed about any Blackstone."
"You speak faults."
"Look do you see any papers in this box that needs to be typed? The answer is no as you can see. So seeing that there is nothing in this box then that would mean that the typing is all done."
"Re-type that which you lost and have it on my desk within the hour." Sesshoumaru went back to his office and shut the door. The fact that he called her a liar to her face then demand for her to re-type something she never got in the first place and have it on his desk within the hour then turning around and walking away left her just a little steamed to which she went down and walked into his office catching him on the phone. Standing there by his desk, she looked down and looked the desk over until something caught her eye sticking out from under his schedule book. Pulling that something out, she noticed the last name andit read 'Blackstone'. Instead of her waiting for him to get off the phone she pushed the hold button.
"As I said before the page you needed typed was not in the box. The reason it was not in the box is because it was here on your desk, so before you Mr. High and Mighty call someone a liar, especially to their face, you should personally look over your desk. Enjoy typing your own paper work as well as shutting the door behind me." She walked out of his office heading to the desk she was working at to answer the phone. Afterwards she headed to the bathroom and then grabbed her lunch and went back to the desk. She sat down and took her lunch out and placed it on the desk.
"We're off to lunch. Would you care to join us?" InuTaisho asked.
"Thanks, but no. I brought my own lunch." She pointed to her food.
"Is salads all that you eat?"
"Not all the time. There are times I eat other stuff as well. Have a great lunch sir." Both father and son left and she felt like she was able to relax. While she was eating her lunch the main door opened and in walked a friendly face.
"Well you sure look like your working hard."
"What are you doing here Ayame?"
"You left early this morning and I didn't know if you made a lunch so I thought I'd bring you something as well, that way I could see how you were doing. That and I was bored. Say you wouldn't need any help would you?"
"Everything is done except answering the phone, and the one to ask is out at lunch right now, but you are welcome to stay and have lunch with me and wait." Ayame brought a chair over and sat down and ate lunch with Kagome. A hour passed and the main door opened.
"Who's your friend Miss Higurashi?"
"Sir this is mine and Sango's friend. Her name is Ayame Haruko." Kagome watched as Mr. Silvermoon, Sesshoumaru, and Ayame looked at each other in a strange way as if the three of them knew something that she didn't. "Sir would it be alright if my friend could remain here with me the rest of the day?" Kagome watched as the three exchanged looks once more.
"There would be no problem." InuTaisho answered but Sesshoumaru left with a irritated air around him as InuTaisho himself walked to his office.
"What was that all about between you three? It's as if there is something that the three of you only know about."
"Well actually there is something about me that you don't know about, and right now it is not the place to discuss it." Ayame pointed to the main door as someone walked in.
"May I help you?" Kagome asked the woman.
"I have an appointment with a Mr. Sesshoumaru."
"If you would have a seat I will let him know you are here." She picked up the receiver and pushed a button. "Your appointment is here." Then she hung up the receiver. A door opened down the hall.
"Come this way Mrs. Mayflower." Sesshoumaru waited for Mrs. Mayflower to walk over to him before heading to his office.
The remaining hours passed without that many calls or people coming in so Kagome and Ayame picked up around the desk and was doing so as Mr. Taisho brought stuff to the desk for the basket to be put away in the morning.
"Miss Higurashi you may go home."
"Thank you. I'll be right back Ayame." Kagome hurried down the hall.
"Does Miss Higurashi know about you?"
"I've never told her." Ayame answered InuTaisho's question.
"Never told who?"
"Are we ready to go Kagome?" Ayame answered.
"I will walk you both out." InuTaisho opened the door for them.
"Where did you park Kagome?" Ayame tried to look for the car.
"It's over there. Well see you tomorrow." Both Kagome and Ayame walked to the car. "I have one place I need to stop before heading home, and that is the bank." They arrived at the bank as the doors were closing so no one new could go in.
"The bank is closing ladies."
"Please could you let me in? It won't take long."
"The bank is closing come back in the morning." The guy answered so Kagome and Ayame walked over to the car and left.
"Ayame could you tell me what it is that you said that I don't know about you? Is it bad? How long have you been holding this something from me? I thought we always told each other things."
"It would prove wise to wait until we reach the apartment." Ayame told Kagome as they drove home. She was also thinking to herself if she should tell Kagome the truth about what needed to be told. After arriving home both Kagome and Ayame sat down. "Kagome the truth is I've been seeing someone and I would like to introduce you to him. He will be having dinner with us tomorrow night. His name is Kouga Renjiro. I didn't want to tell you because of the hardship you have been having and are still going through with Bankotsu."
"So you have not told me this news because of the stress and other things because of my ex-boyfriend, and here when I became friends with Inuyasha and got the job at Enchantment Of Delights you could not leave me alone five minutes without having to know something." Kagome came back out from her room pulling down a tank top then headed to the kitchen for something small for dinner.
"Well yes because you had just moved in with me and well you did not know anyone other than Sango and me."
"But that does not explain the strange look that both the Silvermoon's and yourself gave one another this afternoon."
"So are you going to be glad when you go back to work at Enchantment Of Delights next week?"
"You bet that I am. I will be glad to be away from that arrogant Silvermoon that calls himself Sesshoumaru. Do you know he reminds me so much of a male dog who's marked his territory and does not want anyone in that territory. What he needs is someone to knock his pride down a whole lot. A veterinarian does by removing that which makes a male dog a male dog."
"If only you knew what he truly is Kagome." Ayame thought to herself as she listened to Kagome.
The next morning she woke up late and when she clocked in it was 9:50 am so all the things that needed to be typed before the Silvermoon's came to work was not done and in their boxes. As she came out from clocking in she saw Mr. Silvermoon.
"I'm sorry I'm late sir. I'll get right on what needs to be done." She hurried to the desk and turned on the computer.
"Should not the papers that needed to be done and in my box or desk be there?" The owner of the voice stepped next to the desk and went through the papers in the box. "Yet they are still here."
"They will be done. They would of been done, but..."
"I care not to hear your lame excesses just get them done."
"You know they will get done." Kagome went through and pulled out all of Mr. Silvermoon's papers and typed them up and put them in his box but purposely did not type up Sesshoumaru's but went back to the desk and started listening to the messages and writing them down and put them in the the boxes and afterwards she started on the other typing. A few times he came out to see if what was need to be typed was done yet. Now he was coming out the third time.
"Why are they not all done?" He went on and said more.
"If you would stop coming out and bugging me then they would be done."
"Let me remind you who was here at work on time and doing his work."
"Do it yourself then!" Kagome turned off the computer then took all the papers that needed to be done and plopped them down in front of him and then walked down the hall, clocked out and headed to and out the main door. InuTaisho walked over to his son but said nothing as they watched Kagome drive off. Kagome arrived home as Ayame was walking out of the door. She walked down the stairs to meet Kagome.
"Why are you home so early?" Ayame could tell that her friend was not in a good mood. "Say would you care to come with me shopping for tonight's dinner?" Ayame watched as Kagome took out her keys and got back in her car and opened the door for Ayame.
"The day ended like this mainly because I was late and the other was because of that so called Sesshoumaru. Every chance he got to say I was late getting his papers done he would bring it up, and that I could of had it done if I was not late getting to the work place." They did their shopping then headed back to the apartment, and about four o'clock they started preparing to cook dinner. When 4:30 pm came along they put that which cooked in the oven in to cook. At 5:30 a knock came to the door and Ayame answered it.
"Evening Kouga." Ayame said as she and Kouga hugged each other. "I would like you to meet my friend." They walked to the kitchen. "Kouga this is my friend Kagome."
"Hello beautiful. I am just going to have to call you my woman as well, but my one true girl is this one."
"That is not needed thanks. The dinner is almost done so you may both take a seat." A few moments passed and now the food was on the table and the three started dishing up their food when there came another knock on the door. Since Kagome was standing she went to answer the door.
"May I help you?"
"I was to deliver this to a Miss Higurashi."
"That would be me thanks." Kagome took the gift and shut the door then brought the box over to the table. She opened the box and saw a dead fish in the box with a note. She picked it up and read the note.
The Note
"What does this fish and you have in common? The answer is you are both cold!"
Signed S.S
End of Note
"What did the note say?" Ayame took the note from Kagome and read it. "Who's this S.S. person?"
"Who else, but that ass Sesshoumaru Silvermoon. That's who." Kagome took the note back and walked over to the phone and called Inuyasha. "Could you come over. I'll explain when you get here." She hung up the phone and wrote a note of her own.
Kagome's Note
I'm surprised that a cold pompous ass like you would know what a cold fish feels like. Here's your fish back maybe you have more uses with it then I would.
Signed K.H.
End Of Kagome's Note
Kagome looked over what she wrote, then added the original note with hers then put both notes on top of the box. Twenty minutes passed with Kagome listening to both Ayame and Kouga talking when a knock finally came at the door.
"Hello Kagome. What did you need me to come over?"
"Listen could you please take this gift back to your brother and tell him thank you for the thoughtful gift and have him read this note here. His original note is in there as well. Also I wanted to see how you were and if you heard from your wife yet?"
"So my tight ass of a brother sent someone something! Wow you should mark that on a calendar because he does not send anyone anything. To answer your question if I heard anything from my wife. The answer is no."
"I'm sorry to hear that. I bet you are so bored that your wife is not with you."
"Thank you, and yes it does get very boring and lonely waking up in the morning and my wife is not beside me; then you go to work and come home expecting your wife there welcoming you home from work and having to turn around and cook your own dinner. It gets to you. Well I have to leave so I can give this to my brother and go home and go to bed because I have to be on the construction site early in the morning." He gave her a hug then picked up the box then left. After Inuyasha left, Kagome went to her room and got herself dressed for bed leaving Ayame and Kouga alone.
The next morning Kagome was rudely awakened when a heavy mass landed on her bed and started shaking her. Grumbling a bit she opened her eyes to see a very happy Ayame peering down at her.
"What are you so happy about so early in the morning? I would of thought as late as you were up that you would be sleeping in." Kagome rolled Ayame off of her.
"I am just so happy, Kouga is such a sweet heart. He really likes you too. He wants to take both of us out dancing tonight and I told him that both of us would love to go. He will pick us up at 7:00 pm. I got the perfect outfit for you to wear. Stay right here and I'll go get it." Ayame left and returned with a flame colored orange dress. "I think you will look good in this." Much later that night Kagome dressed in the sexy flame colored orange slinky tube dress with open sides. Early hours in the morning Kagome and Ayame came home and went to bed.
The most wonderful day arrived to which she was back working at Enchantment Of Delights making flower arrangements and delivering them. When she arrived for work she saw that her co-worker was the girl named Kanna.
"Good morning Kanna." But the girl did not answer. She just walked in and took her time card and clocked in while Kagome put her lunch and purse in a locker then clocked in herself.
