Boys Over Flowers: Inuyasha Edition

Chapter 36

"So how was Tokyo?" Sango asked as she bounced up to her friend. She was a bit disheartened that everyone had gone to Sesshomaru's new condo but her (and technically Miroku and Inuyasha too but they didn't count), and was dying for details.

"It was fine," Aubrey said with a rare smile. After spending a few days with Sesshomaru, alone, the girl was beyond cloud nine and just floating higher. Shortly after she'd made it back home, Bankotsu had called to inform her about her audition date coming up within the next week or so. And considering her audition would be long over before Sesshomaru began his residencies, Aubrey couldn't help but marvel that things were slowly working out in her favor.

"Fine? It was your first time in Tokyo. Did Sesshomaru take you out? Did you explore the town?" Sango asked, one question quickly following another.

"Nope," Said Aubrey. "I pretty much was fondled the whole time I was with him… didn't leave his condo once."

Sango, for once, couldn't tell if the girl was being serious or not. "Are… you're not joking are you?" Aubrey shook her head. Sango sighed, they were both completely hopeless. "How was his condo then?" She asked excitedly.

"…it looked like Ikea threw up in there." Was Aubrey's reply.

"…is that a good thing?" The girl asked. Aubrey merely shrugged.

The school day went on just as they normally did. And once the school day was over, after a long day of random peers she'd never even spoken to wondering where Sesshomaru had suddenly disappeared off to, Aubrey concluded that being whisked off to Tokyo had done wonders for her straining relationship. She'd spent half the day talking to Sesshomaru via text, and even managed to get a call from him while on the train heading home. She couldn't help but be all smiles once she got home.

"I'm back!" She chimed as she walked through the door, surprised at first to not find her mother sitting in her usual spot on the couch in front of the television set.

Normally the woman, since she was confined to the home because of her poor health issues, was always there (doing various things besides watching the TV) when the girls arrived home from school unless something was wrong.

"Welcome home," Their father greeted them.

Amberlynn had arrived home moments after her sister, wondering why the girl was still standing in the doorway. " 'brey?" She questioned quietly.

"Where's mama?" The oldest girl asked.

"Well, your mama isn't feeling all too well so she's resting." Said their father.

Aubrey glanced back at her sister, giving her a vague yet knowing look. If there was anything they learned,is that once their mother got "a little sick" shit got real and trouble wasn't too far away from them. Anything that tampered with the Lady Holloway's health doomed them all. Which meant Aubrey had to put in as many extra hours at work as she could to make sure they would have more than enough money to pay any health expenses and live off of.

"I have to work soon," Said Aubrey, more or less to her sister. Amberlynn nodded, her deep forestry eyes low as she slowly slipped out of her school shoes.

Aubrey quickly changed clothes, slipping out of her house undetected, hurrying to the pink club. But once she arrived, the girl quickly wished she'd stayed home. Parked right in front of the infamously famous club was a cluster of fancy cars mixed among the common ones. Zane had mentioned, once before, about companies from the 'riches' side coming over every now and then trying to buy out his club so to think nothing of it. But once she entered, she found Sango off in a corner alone on the verge of a nervous breakdown.

"What's wrong?" Aubrey asked, approaching the girl.

"The Onigumo company is here," Sango breathed as she looked up at her friend.

"Oh, Naraku's daddy's company…? Why are they on this side of town?" The belle wondered aloud, obviously missing the point behind the girl's distress.

"I don't know," Sango all but sobbed. "But Inutashio is out there too, Aubrey… he's here." At this, Aubrey's heart sank. Of all the days… "What are we going to do? We can't not work."

"We ignore the hell out of him," Aubrey said simply, her voice losing an octave.

"Ignore him? How?' Sango asked with a frown.

"Well look," Pointed Aubrey. From where they were, hidden among the shadows of the backrooms, the girls had a clear view of the lounge. "It's packed out there with a whole bunch of guys who ain't never been here before (along with the regulars). Ain't no way we can honestly stop and converse with him. We'll be too busy so ignoring him shouldn't be all that hard." Amidst the small ray of hope, Sango gave a small smile despite being scared shitless.

Once the girls entered the lounge they were all smiles. One wouldn't even know that they were only skips away from a mental breakdown only moments ago. Some of the regulars produced cat calls to a couple of their favorite bunnies, drawing some unwanted attention the girls' way.

'Damn fools,' Aubrey tsked with a roll of her eyes.

Inutashio all but died in his spot as he spotted two of his school wantees, quirking a brow in mild amusement. They seemed to not have noticed him, and he couldn't help but feel that familiar storm brewing from the depths of his pelvis. He watched enticingly as the girls, more so Aubrey than anyone, paraded around his table tending to everyone but him. Inutashio had and needed drinks, he had a compliment or two to say, and he just couldn't fathom why the girl wasn't giving him any attention at all.

"Excuse me, Miss." Mr. Onigumo called suddenly. Naraku's father, an equally sadistic looking man, had been sitting at Inutashio's side, watching as the man's eyes followed the oddly tanned skinned girl. Growing ever so annoyed with the man, Mr. Onigumo took it upon himself to give his friend an encouraging push in the right direction. "Just because you're married, doesn't mean you can't explore another bunny hole. I'm sure that dragon of yours is a tad tired of Izayoi's cave… how about you do a little traveling?" The man said. Naraku's father was a flat out horrible influence on the head Tashio, but the other man couldn't help but agree.

The other girls Inutashio had slept with added spice to his life, the feeling of being inside a young girl gave him a thrill like a hunter bagging a great kill. And Aubrey… well, the man wanted to fuck the southern belle so badly it hurt. "You know me all too well, my friend." Chuckled Inutashio deeply, consuming the last of his drink before his object of affection approached their table. Normally he wasn't one for cheap booze and a sleezy, stuffy atmosphere. But if it meant getting an eyeful of Aubrey when his own son couldn't, he didn't mind putting his pride aside.

"Hello gentlemen," Aubrey smiled at the two men in suits. "How can I help you?'

"Aubrey.." Inutashio said with a small smile.

"Yes sir?" Her smile didn't move an inch.

"I didn't know you worked here," The man said. His golden eyes indiscreetly traveled down her scandalously clad body.

"Well a bunny never reveals her secrets," She winked. If there was one thing Zane stressed at his club, is that the girls had to play the part. Even if they didn't feel like it, they were required to smile, they were required to be cute, and they were required to be mysterious.

"Never discuss your problems with the customers, even if they ask." Zane had said. "They're just too dumb to understand them, and it's not like they really care. Besides, mysteries make you seem cool."

"Now, can I get you another beer?" Aubrey asked, reaching for the empty bottle. Inutashio rested a large paw on top of hers, and although it was just a moment he felt the girl's calling warmth. Aubrey's smaller appendage tensed under his, quickly snatching it back. "I'll be right back." She said, hurrying off.

Mr. Onigumo glanced nonchalantly at his friend, giving the man a knowing look. "Isn't that girl Sesshomaru's girl?" He asked. Naraku's father had attended the showcase to see what his son had been talking about, it wasn't like the young boy to dwell on the attentions of just one girl. And quickly seen why his own child was so fascinated with the Texan beauty. But Mr. Onigumo, if not by much, was a bit more cautious than his friend. There was no way he'd go after a teenage girl… especially one hos own son was with. But, to each their own.

"She is," Nodded the Tashio. "But my son can't do for her like I can… if you know what I mean." The two men shared another chuckle.
