Kagome was on her way to see Inuyasha in his Lamborghini. He told her she could drive it since he was breaking in the Rolls Royce. She parked and stepped out, feeling good about her day. Her last class was cancelled so that gave her more time to herself. As she was walking up to the building, she saw a woman dressed in black coming out and everything was suddenly in slow motion.
That woman turned out to be Kikyo.
And she saw Kagome. Getting out of Inuyasha's car wearing a blinding engagement ring on her finger.
Kikyo loathed that girl.
She gave Kagome the iciest grill as the two walked past each other. Kagome felt like she was walking through the north pole and that look could have froze her to death. She felt like Kikyo was telling her many things through that stare, each one worse than the last.
Once the longest three seconds of her life had ended and they walked past each other, Kagome, still feeling chills down her spine wondered what Kikyo was even doing there.
She entered the building and told the attendant at the desk she was Inuyasha's fiancé.
The woman let him know she was coming up.
"The 45th floor, ma'am." The woman told her with a smile.
"Thank You." Kagome quickly entered the elevator and took it to Inuyasha's office. During the ride, she was still trying to figure out what Kikyo was doing there. What did she say to Inuyasha? What did she do to Inuyasha? Should she be worried? Maybe someone died and perhaps that's why she came all the way back to Tokyo? Kagome really had no idea what was going on and couldn't wait for an explanation or she wouldn't get over it.
Kagome got off the elevator and let herself into Inuyasha's office. He stood up and quickly walked over to her to greet her with a kiss. He was relieved to see her since Kikyo stopping by basically ruined his day. She was angry that he let Kikyo in his office but didn't want to jump to conclusions so she kept her composure and kissed him right back.
Inuyasha sat back at his desk and sighed; closing the book he was taking notes in to talk to Kagome.
"First things first. How was your day?" He asked, smiling at her as she sat on his desk.
"It was fine. I got a callback from that preschool. They want me to come in for an interview."
Inuyasha's mood picked up a lot more with Kagome's good news. "Great, I knew they'd call you back."
Kagome smiled and blushed a bit.
"Next thing. Kikyo was here."
"I know. I saw her when I was coming in. She gave me the coldest look. One that appeared to be a mix between 'drop dead.' and 'I hope your little head explodes. She's so creepy.'"
Inuyasha's eyes widened when she told him that. He felt like he made a mess. "Well it's no one's fault except hers. She shouldn't have even looked at you like that." He put his face in his palms and sighed heavily.
"What was she doing here anyway?" Kagome asked, playing with a lock of his hair.
"She came to tell me how her marriage failed and she didn't finish art school and should have stayed here."
"Oh, cue the violin." Kagome said, rolling her eyes.
"Then she told me she wanted to start over with me."
Kagome could feel anger coursing through her veins. She wanted to go track Kikyo down and punch her in her face for trying to get her fiancé. Not only that, how dare she come back after what she did to him? She sees how well he's doing and wants a piece? Not if Kagome could help it! She was so infuriated and annoyed, but tried to appear calm.
Inuyasha wasn't buying it. He could smell the rage in her scent. "Calm down, Kagome. I told her about our engagement and that I'm happy now. I told her she was too late. So why bother?"
Kagome smirked triumphantly. Inuyasha was right. Why bother? There was nothing in this world that could take him away from her.
Except work.
Sesshomaru came barging in his office. "I have a job for you."
Inuyasha whined. "I don't wanna work at work. It's not fun!"
Sesshomaru dropped a stack of papers on his desk. "All you have to do is pick 50 qualified applicants to market for our new partners according to company standards. With the workload split amongst us evenly, you'll see it isn't as demanding as it appears." He turned to Kagome and smiled slightly. "I'm hoping you won't be a distraction from his tasks."
Kagome smiled and shook her head. "No, I'll make sure he does his work."
"Good." He turned to go out the door. "I'm going home."
"What? You can't leave me here!"
"This is your company as well, Inuyasha. I've already taken care of all the meetings. The most exciting thing that will happen is my secretary bringing you more applications or emails from interested partners. And you can forward those to me. Now goodbye." Sesshomaru left for the day and everything was on Inuyasha's shoulders.
Inuyasha groaned and put his head on his desk. Kagome came behind him and gave him a shoulder massage.
"Don't get all worked up, Inuyasha. Think about what you said to me in high school about how you weren't the wealthy one. Now you are! All you have to do is your part in running this company. Imagine how much you can do for it!"
Inuyasha sat up and looked at the big folder in front of him. 'Why does this woman have so much faith in me?' He thought. 'But then again, she's right. My mate knows best.'
