Kagome arrived at the studio with just enough time to finish her makeup and put on the first dress for the shoot.
It was a silky black strapless that went just past her knees. It fit her like a glove and she smiled at herself in the mirror. She didn't hear Inuyasha come up behind her and jumped when he started talking.
"Do you always stare at yourself in the mirror?" he asked with a smirk on his face. Kagome blushed, and slapped him.
"Don't enter my room when I'm getting ready." She said smartly before walking briskly into the connected bathroom and locking the door. As she left, Inuyasha muttered something that sounded like "women…" and walked out of the room. After a few minutes Kagome decided to come out and wrapped a sparkly black shawl around her shoulders and gave herself one last look in the mirror before heading out. She was instantly greeted by a rush of people. She recognized Cece, the woman who did her makeup, and Pierre, the man who would be photographing her. The rest of the people were random others of her entourage.
"Kagome! You have ten minutes. Are you ready? Can I fix you a snack?" Cece shouted to be heard over the small crowd. Cece was more like a mother then anything else to Kagome since she had lost hers when she was at the young age of twenty, just after she had finally made it in Hollywood. She felt guilty over the death after disconnecting herself from her family so many years ago to live halfway across the country. Her mother had worried so much about her. She shook her head to Cece's question and was moved with the crowd into the photography room. After about an hour of being demanded around by Pierre and being surrounded by flashing bulbs a weary Kagome came out of the room and changed back into her clothes. She wanted nothing more than to collapse into Sango's arms, but then remembered that Inuyasha was her replacement agent. She sighed, and made her way over to the stretch limo, only to see Inuyasha asleep against the window in a rather unattractive way. She knocked, and when that failed to wake him, just opened the door. He came falling out and landed in a heap at her feet.
"What the…?" He shouted, clearly outraged. He looked up to see Kagome and tensed up, and instead of finishing his sentence he stood quickly and tried to remove some of the dirt off his fancy uniform.
"I'm sorry… Here is your ride…" Inuyasha said, with a blush clearly forming on his face.
He held open the door and looked down at the concrete.
The ride home was rather quiet because Kagome was tired and Inuyasha seemed to be brooding in his corner of the limo.
"So I guess you are going to give a bad report to my boss about me, huh?" Inuyasha asked, and his golden eyes found a distant spot in the sky to stare at through the tinted windows. Kagome was slightly taken aback by his comment, and it took her a few seconds to reply.
"Why would you say that?"
"Well… um… You always seem mad and I can't do anything right. You are such a big star and this is my first job like this…" He trailed off, although he obviously wanted to say something more. She waited quietly for him to finish, but he never did and after a while they were at her home. She thought he was just some arrogant snob like so many of the other young men in Hollywood, all trying to make it big and acting as if they ruled the free world even if they had to work a job driving her.
Maybe she was wrong about him.
A/N: Heh, I have no idea what people do in a photo shoot, so bear with me. If you know from personal experience and I'm doing it wrong tell me!
Sorry this chapter is kinda weird; I found half of it lying around in my computer's massive piles of files. Hey that rhymes… As you can see I am easily distracted so that should explain why I haven't updated forever.
