I have a surprise for all of you....yes it is another update! YAY!!! I am all going to warn you now...and again at the end of this chapter. The next chapter is becoming very hard to write, so hard that I completely skipped half of it and started to work on chapters 7-11. (7 and 8 are written I am working on 9) That's all I have written, but there will be more chapters than that don't worry. Okay now off you go!

Tears of Diamonds

Chapter Five: Blossoming Friendship

Disclaimer: I no own; you no sue!

It was ten o'clock already and InuYasha hadn't called her in his office to do some mindless task yet. Some of you might be thinking this is a good thing, but through the past few weeks that InuYasha has been here she has learned that as long as he bothers her he is in a good mood. Was he mad at her for last night at the club? She sighed as she went back to work.

It was around eleven when InuYasha finally asked her to do something. He didn't sound like his normal cocky self when he told her to go down to Keade's office to get some papers that he needed. She knocked on his door and was told that she could come in. He didn't look up from his computer screen at her as she placed the papers on his desk. She stood at the door with her hand on the silver handle. She turned to look back at him.

"Hey, InuYasha?" he looked at her and was about to tell her to refer to him as Mr. Ryu she said. "Thanks for last night." He shut his mouth and she smiled at him. "It really meant a lot." He let a small smile play on his lips. She walked out the door and shut it quietly.

Maybe she isn't a total bitch after all, he thought as he went back to work.

InuYasha was on his way to met Miroku for lunch when he noticed that someone was in Kagome's office. He stopped at her slightly opened door and peered in. Inside Kagome sat at her computer screen, typing away. He cleared his throat to gain her attention. She looked up at him in question.

"What are you doing here? Shouldn't you be on a lunch break?" he asked.

"Well you told me that you needed me the last time I went on a lunch break so I haven't taken any." She said as she clicked her mouse.

"You haven't been eating lunch for three weeks?!" he exclaimed. (he has been working there for three weeks about)

"No!" she laughed. "Sango has been bringing me food when she comes back. Just because you told me I wasn't allowed to take a lunch break, doesn't mean I am going to take up anorexia as my new hobby."

He walked over to her desk and looked at what she was doing. He read over what she was doing and decided it wasn't important. He pushed the button on her monitor that turned the screen off.

"Hey! What was that for?" He grabbed her hand and picked her up from her seat.

"Come on. You put me through a guilt trip now so we are going with the others for lunch." He started to walk towards the door as she got her coat.

"Oh, I feel so special now that I have put the mighty InuYasha Ryu on a guilt trip." She whispered in a mock tone. InuYasha turned around to face her, wearing his famous smirk.

"You should."

Instead of eating at the café like usual; Kagome was with Sango, Shippo, Miroku, and InuYasha an Italian restaurant. They were all talking and laughing about the latest episode of Jackass. Kagome wiped a tear from her eye as she tried to calm down when her cell phone rang. She picked it out of her purse and flipped it open.

"Hello?" she laughed slightly. Her face became serious as she heard who was on the other side. The others stared at her as the noticed the change in her voice. She made eye contact with Sango who shook her head understanding who was on the other end.

"When?" she asked the mysterious person. She got up and gathered her things listening to the person on the other end. "Of course." She hung up the phone and put it in her pocket. "Sorry I have to go." She put down her share for the pizza.

"Kagome, maybe I should come with you." Sango offered. Kagome shook her head.

"Don't worry about it. I'll be back later." She waved as she walked out the door. The rest of them looked at Sango who continued to eat her pizza. She looked up at them with a mouth full of cheese.

"Wha?" she asked. They all shook their heads in disgust at the unpleasant sight of half chewed cheese and dough and pushed their plates towards the center of the table.

Kagome walked in her office an hour and a half later. Man was that guy annoying! She sighed as she took a fell into her nice soft chair and put her head on the cool desktop. She closed her eyes and fished around in one of her drawers for an aspirin. She lifted her head up off the wooden top and swallowed the pill. She opened her eyes to have golden ones bore into her storm ones.

"What was that?" he asked. She held up the white bottle that said Advil® on it.

"Headache." She explained. She leaned back in her chair let her eyes close for second. She opened them again to find InuYasha right in front of her desk. She gave a yelp of surprise. "Is there something I can help you with?"

"Yeah there is. Why did you leave at lunch?" he asked.

"That, InuYasha, is personal."

"Then why does Sango know?" he asked hotly. Kagome looked at him and in the first time since he met her storm colored eyes that were filled with so much emotion were as hard as stone.

"This is my business InuYasha. Please stay out of it." There was a knock on the door and they couple looked up to see Sango at the door.

"Umm...InuYasha? Keade needs to see you." She told him. InuYasha looked once more at Kagome before going with Sango.

When they were far enough down the hall InuYasha asked Sango about what happened at lunch.

"InuYasha, that is Kagome's business to tell not mine."

"Can't you just tell me?"

"I wish I could, I really wish I could." She left him standing at Keade's door.

T.B.C ...

Thank you for the reviews!

Tenshi

Okay it was a little short. Its about three pages long in Word. Sorry for the shortness. I am pretty sure they start to get longer as the story goes on. Hmmm....as I was reviewing my story I decided I should be a little nice (well its also a little cruel too) and give you some teasers. They are statements from future chapters or quotes.

::Teasers::

"Is this where you live?" she asked.

"Yes, Kagome, I live in this parking lot. See that over there?" he pointed a head of him, "that is the living room and right next to that green car is the bathroom."

"Oh my god!" "You go InuYasha!"

"Man I got to pee like a race horse on crack! InuYasha I'm gonna use your bathroom okay?" ...."Man that was a long piss. I won't have to walk to the dog for a week." [If anyone can guess who said that tell me in a review and you could get a cookie!]

"The usual and if that's it I'm leaving. I'm already late for work." She said heatedly. She turned to walk out of the room.

"Hold on there little missy." He called for her as he fingered through the money that was in the envelope. "There is two hundred dollars missing from here." She sighed. [That is a MAJOR clue as what is up, but don't be fooled by it. There is more to it than meets the eye! Another hint: The title]
