AN: Thank you for the reviews! ^^ they make me happy! Anyway, inu-yasha
doesn't belong to me, but I will add him to my growing Christmas wish list!
-_-_-_-_-
"Hai, moshi moshi." Said the unmistakably cold voice on the other line; uninviting; unwelcoming; unsociable, all of Sesshoumaru's traits, revealed through his voice all in one sentence.
"Sesshoumaru. This is Kagome."
"What do you want? Do you know what time this is? Or have you lost your ability to tell time?" Sesshoumaru snorted to himself, obviously pleased by his rather sarcastic comment.
"For your information, it's only ten o'clock in the night and no, I haven't lost my ability to tell time, thank you for worrying though." Kagome retorted back, but she knew this would never get anywhere.
"Umm, Sesshoumaru, can you please, come over to the city? There's something important, that I have to show you, and not tell you of." Kagome's determination could be seen in her eyes, even though she neither liked nor enjoyed the company of either of the two supposed brothers, she still felt responsible towards uniting them.
"What if I say no?" he asked.
"Then I will keep on calling you, and you don't want your little personal life to be disturbed by someone like me, do you?" Kagome threatened, she knew his weakness, he never liked to be bothered.
No answer came on the other line.
"I suppose your silence means a yes, come to my apartment at six o'clock sharp, I don't want to be late for work."
"Fine, wench, but this is the last time we ever see each other."
"Deal." Kagome put down the phone receiver and sighed a little while pushing her back against the wall; she never imagined Sesshoumaru would be /that/ easy to convince, after all, wasn't he supposed to be incredibly stubborn? What just happened made him look like a softy deep inside. Kagome laughed at the thought of such a thing and went inside her room, ready to sleep.
-_-_-_-_-
[Sesshoumaru's place]
Sesshoumaru rubbed the temple of his head, his long silver hair clouding over his face; he couldn't believe that after such a long time; not counting the last meeting; he would get to see the face of his former girlfriend. True, something inside him wanted to say to her that somehow, he loved her, somehow, he wanted to be with her; but the larger part of him kept opposing this, telling him to keep his composure, to be himself.
Is this really myself? Sesshoumaru wondered. What am I doing, doubting who I am? I am the almighty Sesshoumaru! I do not doubt my own decisions and the outcomes of them have only been towards my own benefit.
Yet his heart kept on telling him that the last decision he made was wrong. The one regarding Kagome.
Why is she always in my mind?! He asked himself again, frustrated, angry, lonely. . .
"Argh!" he screamed out loud while pulling on his hair, ripping out a few strands. He smirked at the thought of how pathetic he must have looked at the moment, trying hardly not to laugh.
So we meet again tomorrow? And this time his smirk turned into a real smile. . .
-_-_-_-_-
[in the morning]
Kagome had had a restless sleep, even though she closed her eyes, all she could think about was the fear of meeting Sesshoumaru again; she was scared of the coldness, awkwardness, nothingness that formed between them. She was scared that he would despise her even more for no reason at all. . .She was scared of /him/.
The girl sat up on her bed and walked over towards the bathroom, still half- asleep apparently, and brushed her teeth. She looked at her reflection in the mirror and was shocked to see what was there. Her once smooth skin was now cursed with black rings underneath her eyes, her long wavy hair was now tangled in between themselves, intertwining together.
What happened? She thought, have I really been this stressed since I came here?
Kagome dismissed about that thought and blamed it all on Inu-yasha, for sure, she was going to look a hell of a lot better and feel a million times happier when her job of taking care of him was over!
By the time she was done thinking, she had already finished brushing her teeth. She put her toothbrush in the cup and grabbed her nurse's uniform, quickly changing. Kagome took a glance at the alarm clock and her eyes widened, it was one minute to six a.m. and she hadn't even had breakfast yet!
Serves me right for waking up late! Kagome was screaming out inside her mind when suddenly, a doorbell rang. She looked around frantically while still pulling on her skirt and hopped over towards the door. Kagome peeked outside through the little hole in the door and saw Sesshoumaru's tall figure outside.
Argh, so he really did come, Kagome thought, while slightly regretting her offer of bringing him here. She zipped up her skirt and opened the door, trying to fake a smile on her face.
"You don't have to pretend to be happy." Sesshoumaru stated, if anything, his talent was to know when people were lying or not.
"What do you mean? I-I'm not. . .Oh never mind! I have to bring you over to work, the thing I have to show you is there." Kagome quickly grabbed his arm and closed the door on her way out. Sango was still sleeping so she didn't have to say good-bye.
"What are you doing?" Sesshoumaru hissed at her.
"I told you, to take you to see something. Now follow me or I'm going to have to drag you there and we both know that we don't want to be seen like this."
"B*tch."
"Right back at ya!" Kagome said to him with a sickeningly sweet smile on her face.
By the time they were done arguing, the two had already reached the hospital, Kagome went searching for the head nurse's office, ready to report that she was already in for work. They were probably going to be surprised at how early she was, but the earlier she started the sooner she could get home, and she wanted to get home fast that day.
Kagome peeked her head inside the office room, scanning it for the head nurse, her eyes caught on a figure heaving over the desk, fuming at something. She stepped inside.
"Oh Kagome! You're a life-saver!" the head nurse screamed out, while choking her on a hug. "There's a guy with his brother that's broken his leg here! No other nurses are in yet and I have to attend to another matter!"
"There are no other nurses? Aren't people supposed to be on duty now?" Kagome asked.
"Yes, but they're either apparently "sick", on holiday, or a so-called- family-death has occurred. Let me tell you, there's this one girl that had her father dying twice!"
Kagome sweat-dropped.
"So please, attend them! I beg you! Please?" before she could get a response, the head nurse had already showed them the room of the patient.
"Here! They're in room 108 for the time being. Thank you Kagome!" The head nurse skipped off while singing songs towards her office, not forgetting to buy some snacks from the snack dispenser and grabbing a cup of coffee.
"Hey! You said you had a matter to attend!" Kagome screamed out.
"Yeh, THIS is my matter!" was her reply as the head nurse pointed towards her bag of chips while bumping into Sesshoumaru.
"Hey there. . .how you doing? Here's my card, give me a call." She said while blowing kisses to him.
Kagome grumbled while she cursed slightly, opening the door to the patient's room.
[{patient's point of view ^^ guess who it is}]
I think an angel just walked in! Beautiful, flowing hair, flawless white skin, sea-deep, blue eyes! Who is she? I must make her mine! But what kind of woman would not be mine? Only a crazy one would refuse! But this girl, the rose among the dead flowers in my garden, certainly looks sane enough to me! Oh, she is so beautiful, my little angel.
I can imagine the future we will have, she will call me cupcake while I feed her strawberry icing that was squeezed out from my fruit garden that is now crowded with ants. I can imagine her happy face, oh, what joy I have to be injured at this time, all to meet this beautiful woman!
[{normal view}]
"Oi, Kouga-nichan! What's wrong?" asked a completely kawaii kid, jumping over from the back of the patient. He waved his hand in front of Kouga, who was still in utter daze.
"Umm, are you the patient who's broken his leg?" Kagome asked timidly, he had such a faraway look on his face, maybe he was stoned.
"Can you understand me?" no response. "Have you been taking any drugs lately?"
"Ahh, what? Drugs, oh no, my fair lady, of course not! This Kouga will certainly never do illegal things, except of course, if it is to obtain you!" He shook his head slightly and thumped on his chest.
[{Kouga's POV}]
"Grr. . ." a man stood behind Kagome, slightly holding her shoulders. Who was this bastard? What had he to do with my woman? Does he not know that we are already in love with each other? Or is he a rival.
Oh, a man as stupid as that, I feel sorry for him! The poor idiot does not know of mine and the nurse's blossoming affection!
I sighed a distraught breath and wondered at what the nurse's name could possibly be.
Maybe it was Kirei, a name meaning nothing but beautiful, just like her.
Or maybe it was Kawaii, sweet and cute, but I imagined nobody would have a name such as this.
"May I ask, what is your name, oh beautiful nurse that is worthy of my love?"
[{normal POV}]
"Kagome! Atashiwa Kagome desu!"
"And who might that be?" Kouga said while glaring his eyes at Sesshoumaru.
"That, is my friend." Kagome stated while emphasizing the word "friend".
"Oh, my, then I still have a chance to be yours forever, Kagome! I am yours, and you are mine, we shall remain this way for the rest of our lives!"
"Then I hope you will die in a day. . ." Sesshoumaru snorted at Kouga, unaware that he was making jealous remarks unconsciously.
"That's it Sesshoumaru! Out of the room!" Kagome ordered to him.
Sesshoumaru stepped out, still fuming in anger at the kid who thought that he could go around claiming women, and of all, Kagome! He widened his eyes in shock, since when had he been so jealous of other men crowding around Kagome? What was wrong with him?
Kagome meanwhile, was attending to her new, uniquely different patient. She giggled at the thought of him and put her hand to her mouth.
"Oh my fair lady, what is wrong? Is there something amusing?" Kouga said with amazingly concerned eyed, which only made Kagome laugh even more.
"Ahahaha!" Kouga fake laughed, causing him to sound like a robot. "Ahahahaha."
"OK! You continue laughing like that, but right now, we have to get your leg in a cast and to do that, we have to straighten it first, this will hurt a little." Kagome said to him.
"Nee-chan?" a kid suddenly popped up, this time from behind Kagome, she stifled a scream and turned around towards him.
"Are you fixing Kouga-ni-chan's leg?" he asked with big eyes.
"Yes, I am."
"Please let him be OK, he's taken care of me ever since I can remember." The kid said with tears in his eyes. He wiped them away, ashamed of not being "guy" enough in front of a girl.
"No problem, umm,. . .?"
"Shippou. My name is Shippou."
"No problem in doing that Shippou!" Kagome flashed the kid a smile and ruffled his hair a little, he was so concerned over his brother just getting a broken bone! She never imagined that siblings could become so attached to each other.
Kouga, meanwhile, was still staring at Kagome's back, his face in daze over her beauty, how he wished that he could just be with her for an eternity!
Kagome turned around and looked at the boy, who looked stoned again, she took the chance to try and straighten his leg; she had heard somewhere that nothing hurts for stoned people.
Crack.
She could hear the bone moving as she straightened the boy's leg. It was sickening, disgusting, but not in the way that it would make a person puke; just start to imagine how much hurt it must've felt like for the patient.
One minute, no response.
Two minutes, still no response.
By this time, Kagome was getting worried for Kouga, she started to shake him, trying to get him out of his daze, noticing one weird point; his eyes were so glazed, maybe he really was stoned! Or worse, he was going into some sort of shock, she was ready to dial the number for emergency, when a beaming sound stopped her in the middle of the tracks.
"AAAAAAHHHHHH!!!!!" Kouga screamed out, nearly deafening everyone within a one mile radius, Kagome nearly fainted at the loudness of the noise, she had never heard anything like it, not even when she was a kid and she accidentally turned the stereo on full blast!
"So the rumor was wrong then. . .straigtening a bone doesn't hurt less when a person is stone. . ." Kagome murmured.
"Oh, but fair lady, I was not stoned on drugs, I was stone on YOU! You are the light to me, the rose of my life, the best thing that had ever happened to me!" Kouga screamed out.
Kagome had already left.
"CALL ME!" he said desperately.
"Please?" Kouga whimpered, but all that was given to him was the sound of static air that hung in the depressing room.
-_-_-_-_-
"Who was that idiot?" bawled out Sesshoumaru at Kagome.
"He's not an idiot! And he's quite sweet! No guy has ever done that to me, but really, he's only a patient, and what's it matter to you anyway?" Kagome asked, bewildered.
"Nothing! Absolutely nothing!"
"OK then, I'll show you the thing that's so important." Kagome pulled over Sesshoumaru to room number 52, which was way across the hall. She knocked on it and walked in the door.
"What the hell are you doing here, wench?" Inu-yasha asked, his amber eyes widened as he realized the figure behind him. "And what the hell is HE doing here?"
"You mean, you guys know each other?" asked Kagome, no-one had told her.
"Yes! He's supposed to be my brother or something! My parents introduced me to him! They thought I wanted to meet my "real" family, but all I got to see was this one hell of a bastard!" Inu-yasha's face turned red, full of anger, as he punched his fist in the air, not forgetting to crack his knuckles after that.
"How dare you call me a bastard, asshole!"
"And on top of this bastard coming here, I have to have a wench as a nurse!" Inu-yasha did a dramatic impersonation of someone choking, but he stopped as soon as he saw Kagome's fallen face and a lone tear falling onto the floor.
"OI! Don't cry! I don't like it when girls cry! But I don't consider you as a girl! But don't cry!" Inu-yasha waved his hands in the air, signaling a "no" sign.
"Great, bastard, now you made her cry!" Sesshoumaru pointed at Inu-yasha, his full anger vented out.
"WILL YOU TWO PLEASE STOP FIGHTING!" This stopped the two guys about to start their fist-fight.
"Sesshoumaru! I thought that I was doing a good thing by reuniting you with your supposed brother, but now I know that I've made a terrible mistake. Get out of here." Kagome pointed to the door.
Sesshoumaru remained where he was, oblivious to the fact that Kagome had just ordered him out. He was never ordered around.
"NOW! Go back to your little stupid home in the village where nobody even cares if you're alive or not! Go back to the place where you supposedly belong because I am sick of looking at your face! I've had enough for today! You could've shown a little bit of appreciation to me for trying to show you that you had a brother, but all you've done is mock me and get into a fight! GO."
Sesshoumaru reluctantly walked over to the door and closed it, he shook his head before leaving and didn't bother to even say a word. Whatever sentences he could form would only make the atmosphere even heavier.
"And you! For your information, what ever you do, whatever you say, I will NOT quit my job! I have a future, and you know what? You are not going to ruin it for me!" Kagome spun on her heel, tears falling on her face, trying not to kill Inu-yasha in the process.
"Oi." Inu-yasha said to her, while reaching out his hand, but he was ignored.
"OI!"
"What is it this time? Does the little prince want to use me as a dummy to ridicule?"
". . .I-I'm. . ."
"Spit it out, idiot!"
"I-I-I'm. . ."
"C'mon! It can't be hard to say an insult!"
"I'M SORRY, OK? Are you happy now? There! I said it! I'm sorry!" Inu-yasha spat it all out at once, he didn't like admitting he was sorry to anyone, especially to girls, because it made him seem weak.
"You are?" Kagome asked, tears forming in her blue eyes again.
"What is it this time?"
"Arigatou, Inu-yasha, Thank you!" Kagome smiled at him her most gracious smile and left the room, drying her tears.
"She . . .smiled?" Inu-yasha asked to the air. "But. . .why? I don't understand, I don't understand at all. . ." Unaware to anyone, even to himself, he was blushing slightly.

"Hai, moshi moshi." Said the unmistakably cold voice on the other line; uninviting; unwelcoming; unsociable, all of Sesshoumaru's traits, revealed through his voice all in one sentence.
"Sesshoumaru. This is Kagome."
"What do you want? Do you know what time this is? Or have you lost your ability to tell time?" Sesshoumaru snorted to himself, obviously pleased by his rather sarcastic comment.

"I suppose your silence means a yes, come to my apartment at six o'clock sharp, I don't want to be late for work."
"Fine, wench, but this is the last time we ever see each other."
"Deal." Kagome put down the phone receiver and sighed a little while pushing her back against the wall; she never imagined Sesshoumaru would be /that/ easy to convince, after all, wasn't he supposed to be incredibly stubborn? What just happened made him look like a softy deep inside. Kagome laughed at the thought of such a thing and went inside her room, ready to sleep.

"OI! Don't cry! I don't like it when girls cry! But I don't consider you as a girl! But don't cry!" Inu-yasha waved his hands in the air, signaling a "no" sign.
"Great, bastard, now you made her cry!" Sesshoumaru pointed at Inu-yasha, his full anger vented out.
"WILL YOU TWO PLEASE STOP FIGHTING!" This stopped the two guys about to start their fist-fight.
"Sesshoumaru! I thought that I was doing a good thing by reuniting you with your supposed brother, but now I know that I've made a terrible mistake. Get out of here." Kagome pointed to the door.
Sesshoumaru remained where he was, oblivious to the fact that Kagome had just ordered him out. He was never ordered around.
"NOW! Go back to your little stupid home in the village where nobody even cares if you're alive or not! Go back to the place where you supposedly belong because I am sick of looking at your face! I've had enough for today! You could've shown a little bit of appreciation to me for trying to show you that you had a brother, but all you've done is mock me and get into a fight! GO."
Sesshoumaru reluctantly walked over to the door and closed it, he shook his head before leaving and didn't bother to even say a word. Whatever sentences he could form would only make the atmosphere even heavier.
"And you! For your information, what ever you do, whatever you say, I will NOT quit my job! I have a future, and you know what? You are not going to ruin it for me!" Kagome spun on her heel, tears falling on her face, trying not to kill Inu-yasha in the process.
"Oi." Inu-yasha said to her, while reaching out his hand, but he was ignored.
"OI!"
"What is it this time? Does the little prince want to use me as a dummy to ridicule?"
". . .I-I'm. . ."
"Spit it out, idiot!"
"I-I-I'm. . ."
"C'mon! It can't be hard to say an insult!"
"I'M SORRY, OK? Are you happy now? There! I said it! I'm sorry!" Inu-yasha spat it all out at once, he didn't like admitting he was sorry to anyone, especially to girls, because it made him seem weak.
"You are?" Kagome asked, tears forming in her blue eyes again.
"What is it this time?"
"Arigatou, Inu-yasha, Thank you!" Kagome smiled at him her most gracious smile and left the room, drying her tears.
"She . . .smiled?" Inu-yasha asked to the air. "But. . .why? I don't understand, I don't understand at all. . ." Unaware to anyone, even to himself, he was blushing slightly.
