Kagome shyly knocked on the door of the many doors in the huge apartment. On her way up, she past by beautiful flowers neatly line up and interesting paintings on the different levels of the building.

Footsteps were heard on the other side of the door and grew louder. Louder louder louder until they finally came to a halt. The door slowly opened.

"What took you so long?" asked Sesshomaru being the one to open the door.

"Your directions weren't exactly specific," she replied ruefully. "I spent a few minutes admiring a few of the paintings and flowers on the way up."

"They caught my eye when I first moved here. They're gorgeous." He led her into his apartment as she was shocked at what she saw. The room. The space. This apartment was huge! There was a soft blue rug that lead from the front door all the way into the living room that had a touch of beige everywhere. From the couch to the table that had a small pot of red roses neatly tucked inside. A wide-screen TV was attached to the wall as four speakers sat in corner of the room.

"Your living room is awesome," she said, gaping. "Can I see the rest of the apartment?"

He nodded and watched his beautiful friend explore every inch of the rooms as if she were some extraterrestrial from another world.

The kitchen was just like any other kitchen. The wall was sunflower colored and had sunflower ornaments everywhere to bring out its full color. A huge refrigerator sat in a corner that carried almost nothing inside while oven that looked as if it had never been touched was spotted across the room. The sink was spotless and had various cooking items hanging from above. By the cleanliness, Kagome could tell that this was the room that was least used.

The spiral stairway lead to the small yet clean bathroom with three other rooms down the hall. One room was obviously an office, with all the technical equipment and stacks of papers lying around. The next room was stacked with books of different genres. Possibly the library. The last room was Sesshomaru's room. It had another wide-screen TV inside with a king-sized bed covered with blue satin sheets and fluffy white pillows across from it. Even though it was the biggest room in the apartment, it barely had much. Maybe Sesshomaru liked it that way.

Kagome scurried down the flight of stairs to meet Sesshomaru who was getting a pizza box from a young man at the door.

"Do you like my crib?" He asked, closing the door as the man walked away.

"I love your crib," she said, grinning. "This place is unbelievable."

He smiled, pleased with her compliment, and set the box on the small table in the living room. "Come sit with me."

She walked across the floor where her feet sank into the rug, leaving footprints behind. She slipped off her boots and grabbed a slice of pizza. "This looks good."

"It is." While sinking his teeth through the pizza, he picked up a small plastic bag that sat beside him that carried movie tapes.

"You rented a lot of movies," said Kagome. "You didn't have to do that."

"I had these for almost a week." He dumped the tapes onto the floor. "Which one do you want to see?"

She fished through the different tapes and grabbed one that read 'Hell Inferno'.

"I love that movie," said Sesshomaru. "What makes it good is that Naraku is staring in it. He's a great actor in horror movies."

Kagome nodded. She suddenly felt bad when she began thinking about the fun conversation she had with Inuyasha at the movies.

He got to his feet and placed the tape into the VCR and sat down next to her.

The movie had barely reached the middle as Kagome had her head turned towards Sesshomaru with her eyes shut. Although she seen the movie before, it still had the same effect on her when she first seen it.

Sesshomaru saw this as a chance to wrap his arms around her. "Does this movie scare you that much?"

"Yes," she said. She felt embarrassingly safe in his arms even though there was nothing around that could actually harm her. He reached over for the remote that laid on the table and used it to turn the volume down.

"Do you think it's silly of me to be this scared of a movie?" She sounded as innocent as a child when she said that, Sesshomaru couldn't help but pull her closer to him. Her head laid against his muscular chest as she heard the soft rhythm of his heartbeat.

"Of course not," he replied stroking her long black hair. "It's a horror movie. It's meant to be scary. You're not the only one who would react to movies like this."

"Do you want to do something else?" She asked. Why did I ask that? He probably has something else on his mind. . .

"Do you want to dance?"

Cocking her head to one side, she asked, "Dance...?" What is he up to...?

He grinned. "Yeah. I saw you dancing when we were at the club and I was very intrigued." And very turned on. . .

"And you want a performance?" Asked Kagome with a slight smirk. "I'll dance on one condition. You'll dance with me."

"Sure but don't get mad at me when I step on your feet."

She giggled. "I'll show you a few moves to prevent that from happening."

As Sesshomaru went over towards the stereo to pick a song, Kagome removed the brown coat she'd been wearing since she had gotten there. She figured wearing a red shirt that showed her midriff and a short blue skirt nearly as cute as what she wore to the club. It didn't matter though. Turning Sesshomaru onto her was defiantly something she didn't want to do. Not here anyway.

She turned towards him as he walked over to where she was. As soon as the music began to play, Kagome was already on the beat. "Okay, first step: Spinning."

"Do you take Dance at school?" He asked, taking her hand and twirling her around.

She twirled so fast, it could make one sick just by looking. "Yep."

"The teacher must be excellent. Your movement is perfect."

"My teacher is great but she's not the only reason to why my dancing is good."

"How so?"

"I grew up dancing. It started when my mom took me to this party where tons of people were. They all were dancing and they were very good. Moving perfectly to every beat made and sliding across the floor as if they owned it. I was so impressed I tried it myself. I wasn't so great, but my mistakes made me determined to dance even more. Soon I feel in love with it and kept doing it. And here I am today."

"An expert at dancing!" he said smiling.

Kagome giggled, flattered with his compliment. "I'm no expert. Just very...good."

"I sense cockiness." He stopped twirling her and caught her just as she was about to fall. "I like that."

She blushed and began to walk backwards with him. Without noticing, the two tripped over one of the videotapes that lied on the floor. Kagome was the first to touch the rug with Sesshomaru's hard body pinned against her.

The both laughed at their clumsiness.

"How could we not have seen that?" He asked chuckling.

"I'm always tripping over stuff so I'm...used....to...." Her words trailed off when Sesshomaru lowered his head to meet the soft lips of hers. He kissed her lightly, then harder. So hard that it took Kagome's breath away. Not wanting him to be the one in control of the kiss this time, she shyly slid her tongue in his mouth, letting it collide with his. Sesshomaru could feel the vibrations of her moans as he ran one of his hands through her long black hair that scattered in every direction on the floor. Letting one arm stay on the floor to support his weight on her, he used the free hand to run across her small red shirt that showed her midriff.

She moaned once more this time in resistance as their lips broke apart. "This isn't right. I mean...we can't....I mean-" So many things were fluttering through her head that she couldn't even find the right words to say but, "Do you think this is going too fast...?"

Sesshomaru grinned and continued to let his hand explore her body while his other hand rested on the floor. "I thought that also. Maybe we should stop before it goes any farther. I don't want you to regret what will happen next."

"God, don't say that. It makes me want you even more..." This was what Kagome was trying to evade before, but couldn't stop what was going on. His hands were touching her in places that aroused her. It as already going too far but she wanted him so badly. Her body ached for his attention.

The two got to their feet, making their way towards the spiral stairs and his room only to end up back on the floor at the first step. They both eased each other's shirts off.

Sesshomaru nipped at her neck as he carelessly ran his hands across her bra. His magical hands teasing her breast was enough to make her go insane. She didn't want to seem desperate but there was never a time when she could remember feeling this way. "Take...it...off...now!" Her head lolled back as he kissed her once more and nearly ripped the bra off. Her breasts were just as he imagine, perfect like her. Sucking greedily at her nipples, his excitement build for her as soft whimpers escaped her throat. Her fingers threaded in his hair that was twice as long as hers.

It was great but it wasn't enough. They both wanted more.

A hand slid down past Kagome's chest, past her flat stomach, further down until it stop at the skirt she wore. He lifted up her skirt and used his skilled fingers to massage her. Kagome moaned and arched towards him, encouraging him to put more pressure against her. She didn't want be the aggressive one by pulling his hair but instead clutching the rug beneath the two. Her moaning and gasping came faster as the pressure he put on her began to build, pooling in her lower belly. Her eyes flickered and rolled in the back of her head as she nearly fainted.

"Did you like that?" Sesshomaru asked, using the free hand to rub her flushed cheeks.

She opened her eyes and smiled slightly, trying to control her ragged breathing. "I didn't know...you could do that...with just your fingers...."

Laughing, he said, "I can do other things besides that." He wiggled off his pants and boxers and slid her skirt and panties off. The two were entirely naked. They both examined each other's bodies until Sesshomaru made the first move and put himself above her, slowly entering her. Kagome winced a little as he push himself deeper inside her. Resisting the thought of pounding her into oblivion, he went slow. Soon pleasure began to overcome pain; both mingled with one another as if they knew what the other was thinking. Her arms went around his neck and inside the wetness of his hair. She could hear someone screaming. To her surprise, it was own doing. It seemed as Sesshomaru was equally enjoying himself. His pathetic moans mixed with hers and their bodies were oiled in each other's sweat.

As none could take the pressure any more, Sesshomaru quickened his pace and Kagome's final cry sent him over the top with her right behind him.

Having no strength left, he collapsed on her, both breathing raggedly from the strenuous activity.

"Oh God," she mumbled continuously. "Oh God, Sesshomaru."

"Was it good baby?" he asked.

Sticky, hot, feeling ecstatic, and loving bit of it, she could only answer, "Hell yeah!"

He could only laugh. "I'm glad."

"I wonder...if the bed is any different from the floor."

"It is. That is...if we make it to the bed next time."

She giggled and kissed his sweaty forehead as he laid on her chest. "For some reason, everything looks different in your house. As if it's been redecorated..."

Sesshomau chuckled. "What the hell? Are you always this talkative after sex?"

"Only when I'm happy," she said, smiling..

"Well...keep talking then. I promise I'll listen to every word."

Even though she didn't want it to happen, she didn't feel guilty or regret. For it was the best thing that happened to her.
