Ex-Mafia

Chapter 4: part 1 (of 3)

Kikyo scanned the restaurant, and after a few moments, she instantly spotted Inuyasha's bright-ass head. Bright physically, not mentally, mind you.

She walked over to his table, and without even a greeting, she sat down and motioned the waitress for a menu.

If she was going to wake up early just to meet up with Inuyasha, she might as well get a free meal out of him.

Inuyasha looked irritated. She always freeloads on their meetings, and she always acts as if he's never there until he speaks to her. What the hell, this girl hadn't can't even say hello.

"Stupid bitch…" He mumbled.

Kikyo looked up from the menu. "What'd you say you filthy mutt? 'Cause all I heard was diarrhea coming out." She looked over at the anxious waitress. "I'll have the caviar scrambled egg, please, with a side of orange juice champagne." (Just wanted to make it expensive, lol)

Inuyasha's eyes bulged out. "Are ya TRYING to get me broke? 'Cause it's workin'."

She sent the waitress away and glared at the Hanyou across the table. She ignored his comment and asked. "What kind of business do you have for me?"

He glared back at her and slammed a folder onto the expensive glass table. "It's all in here. We strike tonight."

Kikyo didn't even look at the folder. All she wanted now was to have a good meal to fill up her stomach, and to annoy the hell out of Inuyasha.

"So, Inuyasha… how's life working for Naraku?" She thanked the waitress as her delicious-smelling meal was placed in front of her.

"He's still acts as if he's the best. He expects everyone to respect him, even though he doesn't even give US respect. What an asshole." Even though he 'hated' Kikyo, he couldn't help but open up to her. It's that soft spot again.

"Sounds like he needs some ass." She talked through her chewed food, but the words came out surprisingly clear. "That's why I decided not to work for him. I sensed his…. immorality." She swallowed her egg with caviar. "Not safe."

Inuyasha sipped on his five dollar coffee. "Yeah. But the pay is pretty damn good."

"It also sounds like you need some ass, too." She drank her champagne and smirked at his annoyed look. "Haven't seen you with a girl since…. Forever. You gay?" She knew damn well he wasn't, but she needed the entertainment.

"Hell no, you crazy bitch." He was about to splatter the bad-tasting coffee on her, but didn't want her to kick his ass afterwards.

She looked at him seductively. "Then why don't you prove it?"

He stared at her hypnotizing beauty as she licked her lips.

Kagome woke up to the most uncomfortable position on the couch you can imagine (start imagining).

"Stupid Sesshomaru…" She tried to get out of her dry mouth.

It was six in the morning, and she still needed more sleep. She walked up the stairs dazedly, eyes half closed. After what seemed like centuries climbing up the stairs, she opened the door to her room.

She walked over to where her bed should have been and let gravity have the best of her. She hit the hard floor and landed on her hands and knees before resting her remaining body parts. Still, she imagined she was on her soft bed and she was too sleepy to realize that her knees were throbbing with pain. She smiled, drifting off to sleep and dreaming of Sesshomaru.

Sesshomaru opened his eyes, as he thought he just heard something down the hall. But it wasn't an intruder… at least… he didn't smell anything…

He got up and went into the living room to check on Kagome just in case. She wasn't there.

He went back upstairs and opened the door to the room where he heard the noise. Kagome was lying on the floor, sleeping in the fetal position. He stepped closer, planning to scold her, but stopped when he saw her smile.

Sesshomaru walked up to the body and shook it forcefully.

Kagome's eyes shot open, but still with a sleepy expression. She gave him an idiotic smile "Sess?...mmm… I told you nothing …..was gonna happen. You worry too mmmmuch." she yawned and went back to sleep
