Fame?

Chapter 7: Low Man is Due.

Disclaimer: Welcome to the new, improved, and self-cleaning chapter 7! Yes, that's right, I'm editing Fame to make it more self sufficient, easy to read, and understandable. Huzzah. I don't own Inuyasha.

Last Chapter: "Love…" She said slowly, and she saw him nod in the clear moonlight shining in through her window. He moved closer to her until one hand was resting against her cheek, his golden eyes completely calm and unclouded by sleep. Honest eyes.


Kagome stared at Inuyasha's silhouette. Was he serious? After all these years he suddenly appeared at her door confessing his undying love for her? It sounded more like a fairy tale than real life. Then again, after the modeling job she got her whole world seemed to come directly from a story book... That was it! The modeling! Maybe he was just after her again because she was so rich… maybe he was in it for the money! She threw him another look, this time one of suspicion, but he didn't notice because he was staring out the window. It was then she realized that he actually had been quite rich when they were younger, and even though he worked as a chauffeur his parents were probably still filthy rich, not unlike hers. Maybe she was just being paranoid or insane or a combination of the two. Right now all she wanted was to catch up on her much needed sleep. Without thinking, she rolled over and went back to sleep, forgetting all about Inuyasha and that Sango and Miroku still slept downstairs…

She woke up at seven in the morning to loud shouts, screams and the sound of something shattering. She immediately ran downstairs to see none other than Miroku holding Inuyasha against the wall and Sango waving a half shattered bottle above his head. No one noticed Kagome's arrival so she had a few minutes to take in the scene, blinking sleepily in the bright morning light. She was about to leave them to their own defenses and go back to bed when Sango spoke.

"Who are you? Why are you trying to rob Kagome? How did you get past the security!" she looked very menacing with her hair wild from sleeping and the sharp bottle in her hand. Kagome almost felt sorry for Inuyasha. He was pinned against the counter and flinching away towards Miroku, doing anything he could to avoid a blow from Sango. That's when Kagome, stifling a yawn, decided to step in to Inuyasha's rescue.

"Okay you guys, that's enough." She said, shuffling in the kitchen. Sango and Miroku turned towards her.

"Kagome, we found this weird guy in your house. We assume he was going to rob you, but at the time he was just making toast." Miroku blurted, still not letting Inuyasha scurry away. Kagome smiled, looking at the now angry Inuyasha.

"He's one of my friends, let him go. He came over last night." She said without thinking how this could be misinterpreted. She thought about it once she heard Sango's gasp and immediately regretted her choice of words.

"Kagome, I never knew about him! What's his name? Why didn't you tell me you were seeing someone? Or was it just one of those casual things? Oh my gosh, I'm sorry!" Sango exclaimed, and then whacked Miroku's hand so Inuyasha could go free. Inuyasha grunted and rubbed his neck.

"Feh, what did I tell you? I wasn't robbing Kagome!" He growled unhappily and took a place next to Kagome.

"So what's your name? How did you meet Kagome? Do you love her?" Sango said with her eyes gleaming mischievously as she looked up at Inuyasha's flustered face.

"Err… I'm Inuyasha… Eerr…" He trailed off looking at Kagome for guidance. She gave him a small smile. Sango could be a little much for those who just meet her. When Kagome had first met her she had been overwhelmed by her perky loud nature and at that time she had only been her agent and part time driver, but now she was one of her best friends. Wait… driver? Something about that sentence stuck in her mind. Inuyasha had been her driver that morning too, from the same company as Sango! Why didn't they know each other?

"Sango, he's a driver. I met him because you were… sick today. You should know him." Kagome said, looking at Sango curiously. She turned towards Inuyasha, blinking.

"Wow, you're right. I didn't know you were that desperate, Kagome. I mean, just some random guy when you could have almost anyone?" She winked playfully, and wrapped her arm in Miroku's. Kagome shook her head. It was too long of a story.

"Get out, all of you." She said, pointing to the door and yawning. She had an important shoot that night and could not spare to be there half awake.

Her dreams that afternoon were sprinkled with thoughts of Inuyasha, high school and her current life. She woke up to the sound of a phone ringing at 1:00 and answered half-heartedly, making a mental note to remove the blasted phone from her room as soon as possible.

"Hello?" She yawned, drawing the shades and looking onto her lawn. She heard the voice of Kirara, Sango's main assistant.

"Hiya Kagome!" she chirped. She was only about 17 and still full of energy. Apparently her father owned the driver business and she was just helping for a summer job.

"What do you need Kirara?" She moaned, stretching her stiff limbs and yawning again.

"Sango told me that she wants to train in a new driver slash assistant for you today, so instead of her you'll be driven by a..." Kirara paused to look up a name, but Kagome could already guess what she was going to say... "Oh, his name is Inuyasha!" She twittered happily. Some days Kagome wondered how any one human could be so happy but today she was more worried about Inuyasha. How could Sango do this to her? Kagome couldn't help but smile, thinking how cute Inuyasha was. Maybe this wouldn't be so bad after all...
