Tears of Diamonds
Chapter Three: Meeting the Arrogant, boisterous, vulgar, and immature
Jackass (a.k.a My Boss)
Disclaimer: I no own; you no sue!

Someone knocked on Kagome's door as she was typing an important letter to a customer. Without looking up from the computer screen she told them to come in. She kept typing until she heard Keade's voice.

"Kagome, I would like you to meet Mr. InuYasha Ryu, your new boss and the President of our company." Kagome looked up from her computer screen and saw a very handsome man behind her former boss. Kagome stood up and offered her hand in a friendly gestured. She eyed him up and down. He had a black business suit on with contrasted beautifully with his gorgeous silver hair. He had the most stunning golden eyes she has ever seen in her life. She watched as his eyes took her body in. He grabbed her hand and shook it.

"Hello Ms. Higurashi." He said. His voice reminded her of silk.

"Hello." She said back.

Keade clapped her hands."Now that the introductions are made, we can continue the tour and get you settled in your new office. Come this way please."

Kagome sat down as they left and continued type her letter. It was about two hours later that she got a call from InuYasha asking her to make a copy of a file for him. She hung up and went to his office, which was across from her new one. She walked in and but was stopped bye his voice.

"What are you doing?" he asked rudely.

"You told me to come and get a file form you so I can make a copy of it." She stated, hoping that her new boss didn't have a short-term memory problem.

"I know that, I meant, what are you doing just waltzing into my office? From now on you knock before you come in. Go outside, shut the door and try it again!" He ordered.

She stared at him dumb founded that he could be such a jerk and then did as he told her too. She knocked on the door and when she heard 'Come in.' she opened it.

"That's better." He had his feet up on the desk and had a blue folder in his left hand. "Now I want you to take this file and make a copy of it for me." She walked over and took the folder from his hand. She walked out of the room, but was stopped by InuYasha's voice. "You forgot to shut my door Ms. Higurashi!" he called after. She closed her eyes for a second then went back to shut the door.

"I'm telling you Sango, this guy is a total ass!" she complained to her friend. Kagome and Sango sat in their favorite seats in the café. Sango took a sip of her soda.

"Give the guy a break, Kag. It's his first day!"

"I walked into his office today and he told me to walk back out and knock first. Then he called me back to shut his door for him. Then after that he called me into his office so I can make him a pot of coffee cause he drank his first cup. Then around ten he called me in again to-"

"Okay, okay, get your point the guy's a total and complete jackass!" Sango said as she raised her hands in a sign of defeat.

"Finally! How the hell am I going to live through this job?" she asked as twirled the pasta around her fork.

"You could always quit." Sango offered as she took a bite of her salad.

Kagome sighed. "You know I can't. Guess I'll just have to take Keade's advice."

"And what would that be?"

"To stock up on aspirin."

"Some advice." Sango snorted.

"Or suicide," Kagome looked out in the window at the rainy city, "I could always drown myself in a puddle."

Sango scrunched up her nose. "Puddles are too shallow to drown in, fish ponds, however, are a completely different story." She said seriously but failed to hide her laughter. Kagome joined in.

Lunch with Sango really cheered her up about InuYasha. Maybe she really could survive this job. Kagome walked into her office and sat down at her computer. She checked her email, which there was none and continued to revising her letter she had written earlier. It wasn't five minutes after she opened the letter that her phone rang.

"Hello, Kagome Higurashi." She said as she fixed her letter.

"Where have you been?" asked an annoyed voice that could only belong to InuYasha.

"I was at lunch. It's only ten after one."

"I had work for you to you do and when I called you, you weren't there. What kind of personal assistant are you?"

A hungry and annoyed one, she thought sourly. "I am truly sorry I wasn't there when you needed me, but I was on lunch break, if you would like I could do that work now." She said as nice as possible.

"No, no that's okay." He said before he hung up. She put the phone down forcefully. "Jerk!" she muttered under her breath as she continued with her letter. Her phone rang again.

"Hello, Kagome Higurashi."

"Actually, I want you to do that work now. Come to my office and I'll give it to you." He hung up the phone leaving a fuming Kagome on the other end. Okay, maybe she could survive this job, but he surely wasn't. Would that take money out of her paycheck if she were to put rat poison in her boss's morning coffee?

T.B.C (sorry it was so short! I promise the other next one will be longer!)

Don't eat yellow snow: Yes, I am sure I was six. Believe it or not but I am not that stupid now! I am sure that Kagome would give you some Advil...but as you clearly read in this chapter she is going to need so I am not sure she could spare some at the moment!

Fondybandgeek: Thanks for the review and thanks for telling me about your friend. At least now I know that I am not the only one out there that can't control what their mind tells them!

Kawaii houshi: No...you didn't inflate my ego too much! The bigger it gets the more I write! I'm not sure if Kouga will be in this story...but thanks to you I think I have an idea how to put him in it! Oh I like what my mind is creating! cue evil laughter (Thanks for bring him to my attention! How could I ever forget poor Kouga-kun?)

erica6060: Yes, I don't like that InuYasha dies either, but I wanted to be different and killing off our favorite Hanyou was a bit different. Yes I guess we will have to keep reading (and reviewing) to find out how he dies. I wonder what my wonderful and godly mind will come up with!

KougaGirl: Thanks for reading and reviewing! I'm glad you liked it! Yea I wonder how he dies too!
