Inuyasha inspected the young woman before him with a professional eye. Nice form, cute face, soft curves perfect for---
Before his thoughts could get too carried away, he saw her stick her hand out in a an offer of greeting as she clearly declared with a forced smile
"I'm Kagome Higurashi. Your new house guest for the year."
He shook the proposed hand in somewhat of a flabbergasted manner as he told her his name. He had firmly been believing the new 'house guest' was going to be some ugly, annoyingly smart girl that would be stealing his underwear the whole year for part of her worshipping Inuyasha shrine. Basically like almost every girl he had ever met or knew. He hadn't been expecting this.. stunning woman. However he still had hopes she would worship him; easier to bed her in the end. Getting his composure back, he gave her a handsome grin and beckoned her inside.
She gave him a suspicious look before stepping through the threshold in to the humble home. He kicked the door shut and walked past her heading for the kitchen.
"Do you want something to drink? Water? Pop? or maybe beer is more to your taste?" He called, smirking at her while stating the last part. She rolled her eyes at him.
"Just Pop please."
He nodded and pulled two aluminum cans from the refrigerator. Walking back in to the room he tossed one of them to her. To his surprise she actually caught it with her free hand since the other was still holding some of her luggage.
"Nice catch." He praised, popping open his own can and taking a swig.
"Thanks." Kagome replied confidently, sipping hers can before casting a look about the house curiously before turning back to him with her brows knitted together.
"Hey Inuyasha?"
"Yeah?" He collapsed down on the couch as he spoke, looking up at her through half lidded eyes. No, he assured himself, this girl wouldn't take much wooing at all. He gave her a week at most before she was helplessly in love with him. He could already see the fire of passion in her eyes as she looked down at him. 'Here she goes' He thought smirking 'She's going to tell me how good looking I am and how she didn't expect it and---'
"Where's your mom?"
Or she was going to ask that.
"She had to go pick something up. I take it she wasn't expecting you so early... Kagome." He said her name with a playful wink meant to make any girl swoon.
~*~
'Did he just wink at me? He did!' Kagome thought in disbelief. She could see confidence and arrogance shining in those undeniable magnificent gold eyes, and she frowned. Deciding to play it safe until his mother got home, she decided to play it off. Schooling an innocent expression on to her face she asked him
"Um. Inuyasha.. Is there something in your eye?"
She watched in veiled amusement at the incredulous look he was sending her. Priceless, absolutely priceless. Although she probably sounded very dense for the comment to him, it was worth it.
"No.. I'm fine.." He said "I guess you can't have them good looking AND smart..." Kagome just barely caught the last part muttered under his breath and glared at him not knowing whether to feel complimented or insulted. She settled for the latter.
With a small snort of irritation she asked curtly
"May I look around?"
"Be my guest..." He responded in silky smooth seductiveness.
She bit back a frown of disgust as she set her things down on the floor and began walking around the room. Coming upon a small bookshelf with several picture frames settled upon it she picked a random one up. Her eyes widened in shock and she tried masking a giggle with a cough. She failed as it turned in to full blown laughter, the picture clasped tightly in her hands as her body shook in amusement.
~*~
Inuyasha spun around almost immediately when he heard her laughter. Hurrying over to her, curious as to what she found so amusing, a grin covered his lips.
"What's so funny? Let me see!" he asked.
Kagome turned around a large smile on her face, a picture frame held to her chest. Inuyasha admitted she looked good when she was smiling but the devious twinkle in her eyes was unnerving.
"Inuyasha.." She began in an adoring voice "I didn't know you were so adorable as a kid!" Right as she finished her words she held up the picture for him to see. His eyes widened in horror.
It was a picture of him when he was about three years old. He was hugging a stuffed dog to his chest, sending a adoring smile to the camera. His silver hair was curled and in pigtails on either side of his head, done up in bows. All while dressed in... a... a pink dress.
Faster then you could say 'Japan' he had snatched the picture from her, blushing like furious.
"Don't you know it's rude to laugh at your host?!" He growled, forgetting his seducing in order to resort to wishing he had a match to set the accursed photo on fire.
She fell in to fits of laughter once again as she gasped out
"I'm.. I'm sorry.. Inuyasha.. It was... just... so funny!! I... I couldn't help.. it..!" She wheezed the last part, leaning against the wall for support trying to get the image of the playboy in front of her with the same antics done unto him. Dress and all.
More peals of laughter followed until she finally got herself under control again.
"I truly am sorry.." She said, giving him a apologetic smile as she sat in one of the plush red chairs.
He huffed from his place on the couch, the picture still in his hands. It almost looked like he was strangling the poor thing.
Suddenly the noise of a door being unlocked caused both of their heads to swivel and look towards the door. A woman stepped through, a brown bag in her arm as she called
"Inuyasha, sweetie, I'm home!"
Kagome held in her snicker at the way he flinched at the word 'sweetie.'
"Hey mom. Guess who came early?" He asked her. The woman shifted the bag from her line of sight and smiled in delight at the sight of the young woman standing to bow to her in greetings.
"Oh Kagome! It's so good to see you again!"
The girl blushed slightly but was still smiling dubiously.
"It's good to see you again Mrs. Kazeaki."
The older woman set her groceries on a nearby table to free her arms.
"Oh please Kagome dear, just call me Kaoru."
Kagome nodded as she was engulfed by the older woman's hug.
"Okay..!"
Pulling her away slightly, Kaoru looked Akito's daughter over. As a smile covered her face she commented "Ah.. you look exactly like your mother. Except for your eyes."
Kagome blushed again but was laughing lightly.
"Mom told me you'd say something like that!"
"Well Akito knows me too well..!" She glanced down at the luggage then at her son. "Well Kagome why don't we show you your room. Inuyasha why don't you grab her things and carry them upstairs?"
Inuyasha nodded and followed the orders dutifully. Although a slight smirk decorated his face imagining the look on Kagome's face when she saw her 'room.' Or rather, half room.
It was going to be perfect payback for laughing at his picture. He sniffed in hurt pride as they ascended the stairs.
~*~
Kagome resisted the sudden impulse to groan. Glancing out of the corner or her eye, she caught Inuyasha smirking evilly at her.
'Things just keep getting batter and better for me don't they?' She thought sarcastically as Kaoru showed her where everything was and she nodded dutifully. First I find out I'm going to a completely new school, living with a playboy, then I have to share a room with him?
Well, at least they didn't have to share a bed... She reconciled herself with a small shudder. Now THAT would be unbearable.
Giving her hostess a charming smile she thanked her.
"Oh don't worry about it Kagome." She laughed "Now, who's hungry? I just bought some things from the store to make some Oden..."
Kagome's head immediately perked up at the mention of Oden.
"I'm hungry!" She said excitedly.
"All right. I'll start making it while you and Inuyasha get better acquainted." With that, she disappeared leaving Kagome alone with Inuyasha.
"So..." He began. She turned to look at him lying sprawled on his bed, trying to keep the smirk from his face "How do you like your new sleeping arrangements?"
"They are..." He turned to her, waiting for her to say one of the more redeemable verbs such as 'wonderful' or 'great' instead it was a sardonic ".. livable."
He nearly fell off the bed while she grinned at him.
"'Livable?!' Don't tell me you aren't the least bit excited about sharing a room with me!" He nearly shouted
Her arms crossed over her chest and she took a defensive position all while grinning.
"Nope."
"I can't believe it!" He growled "Of all the girls it could have been, I get to spend a year with a woman completely un-attracted to the male gender...!"
Kagome took offense to that.
"Hey! I only like guys thank-you-very-much!! And just because I don't happen to like you in particular doesn't mean I don't like the whole male race!!"
"Could have fooled me!" He seethed "Your as dense as a rock I don't see how- -!"
"I am NOT dense! I just chose not to acknowledge you hitting on me!!"
"Wait! That means you were just playing with me the whole time?!" He yelled in disbelief.
"Yes, finally he gets it!" She cried in exasperation "It took you long enough!!"
"I should---!" He began but a strict voice called from downstairs
"Don't make me come up there you two!"
They glared at each other, pouting on their respective beds.
"This is your fault." They said in unison. With a snort of ignorance from both of them, they continued glaring at each other not blinking.
