With Kagome
Weak sunlight being filtered through greenish gold curtains woke Kagome from her peaceful slumber. She groaned remembering her long plane ride with had left her still feeling sore and tired. Without any prodding she drew herself out of bed looking hopefully at her bathroom door. With any luck she would be able to get in a shower before anyone requested her presence for media related or 'shopping related' she reminded herself, reasons.
Before she knew it her shower was done and she stood in the freezing bathroom, a towel clutched to her body. Quickly dressing wasn't very hard for Kagome as she set to the task of readying herself for the world. Groaning out of sheer annoyance because she couldn't find her other shoe Kagome gave up and opted for a pair of sandals she found in her bag. With a final tug she set out to find someone she knew.
Twenty minutes ago Kagome had been sure she knew where she was, too bad she still couldn't find anyone to help her. The place was huge and everything looked the same from the samurai swords that lined the walls down to the western style doors that were boldly underneath them. She heard movement and spun around in a quick fearful movement.
Unfortunately she knocked a small table over which sent a vase that hit a sword crashing to the ground. There she stood surrounded my broken glass, wood, and what she hoped was a cheap copy of an antique samurai sword. Then the sound of quickened footsteps drew her attention to a man who she could only guess was Sesshoumaru Taisho standing with an angry expression on his face.
With Sesshoumaru
Sesshoumaru wandered around the house waiting for his father to finish a major phone call. He felt like a little child who had been denied desert by the way his father had brushed him off telling him that they should let Kagome sleep for a little while longer. Apparently the girl was very important and her beauty sleep was more pressing then the meeting he had to cancel an hour ago.
He had just checked on Rin only to find her asleep, his poor little angel was holding her two-headed dragon plushy very tight. After ensuring that she was okay he began walking around in sheer boredom. A sound of crashing caught his attention and he walked toward it. The soothing scent of lilies and lavender found his nose as he turned the corner to find a very beautiful girl standing in the middle of what could only be described as mayhem and destruction.
"What are you doing?" His question was straightforward and spoken in the iciest voice possible.
"I..I was, am lost." She stammered out.
The look on his face was unreadable as he studied the enigma in front of him. "You must be Miss Higurashi. Follow me. The help will clean that up." His voice boomed causing Kagome to flinch.
She followed behind him her discomfort obvious in the way she shirked away when he turned to look at her. For some reason her fear of him was becoming an annoyance where it would normally be a comfort. He was beginning to wonder if him having to watch her in the work place was going to be a pleasant experience for either of them.
With Izayoi
Izayoi was busy today, she was currently trying to set up the office next to Sesshoumaru's for Kagome. It was all Inu's idea and she thought he was insane for it, but her husband was dead set on having Sesshoumaru be Kagome's personal helper. She shook her head as she added the last touches to the renovated office a small smile on her perfect face.
'Oh well, at least Inuyasha won't go after her while she is in Sesshoumaru's care' She thought as her mind wandered to the girl she know was just perfect for her son. The girl was the daughter of one of her rich friends. She was also the heir to a vast fortune which was perfect for Inuyasha.
With a smile she finished and carefully picked up the phone to call Inu, her job was done and now it was his turn.
With Inu
Inu heard the crash and calmly walked toward it only to hear the voices of Sesshoumaru and an obviously frightened Kagome. He quickly walked into a room as soon as the two began walking in his direction. 'This isn't good, how will they get along if he frightens her?' As soon as they had left Inu snuck toward a shortcut and threw a secret opening in a spare bedroom to his office.
He was just in time to answer his office phone of course he knew who it would be. Inu had called his office telling his secretary that he was still on vacation for another two days saving him from any work. After she told him all he wanted to hear he waited for his eldest son to come to him and bring Kagome with him.
With Sesshoumaru
She was being quiet, much too quiet for his liking. Although he normally preferred everyone around him to stay quiet this was becoming very annoying. Maybe it was just the fact that she was in every way his equal or something to do with that fact that his father held her in high regard but her silence was beginning to eat at him. It was obvious from what he had heard of her that she was a happy talk-a-holic who always smiled. That was a far cry from the girl who looked lost and frightened that trailed behind him at the moment.
He found a servant and told her of the mess on the third floor, the girl blushed and hurried to follow a direct order from the one of the richest men in all of Japan. Quickly Sesshoumaru strode towards his fathers office, a slight headache beginning to pick at his senses. With a powerful knock he allowed his frustration out on the cherry wood door. A silent "come in" was heard as Sesshoumaru motioned for Kagome to follow him into the room.
His father sat behind a lovely desk and seemed to be typing away at the laptop before him. "Yes?" His booming voice called out.
"I have Miss Higurashi here with me. Now what is it that had to wait this long?" His voice as usual was pure ice.
"Good, then both of you take a seat. We have much to discuss." He sounded happy as he closed his laptop and both of them sat across from him.
A smile briefly touched his features as he looked at Kagome. "Kagome, Sesshoumaru here will be your business partner when you both inherit the company. Because of this I have decided that it would be best if he would be your teacher. That said I think you two should get going to work. Have fun, hope to see you tonight after work." A simple hand gesture and he opened his laptop to begin typing again.
"Mr. Taisho, you said we had a lot to discuss…this hardly seems like a lot." Kagome suddenly chimed in.
"Kagome, you may call me Inu. I guess I really didn't have much to say but I hardly think that the appointment Sesshoumaru is about to miss can wait. We will talk later." With a wink he turned his attention back to the laptop.
As soon as the door shut he picked up the phone to call Izayoi to tell her that the children were on their way to work. With a sly voice he set the plan into motion. The only thing he needed to do now was to call Haru and tell him that everything had already begun.
