Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyahsa! Haven't I said that before?
"Why'd ya do it Menomaru?" Inuyasha snarled. The man just smirked at his anger. Inuyasha slammed his open palm on the cold metal table.
"Because his skin was just so soft." Inuyasha turned around and walked out of the interrogation room. He wiped the sweat off of his brow.
"Calm down Inuyasha, we have a confession and that's all we need. We can put him away for a long, long time. You did you're job." Sango said and put a hand of comfort on his shoulder. "He won't go unpunished."
He sighed. "I know. Thanks Sango. We still on for tonight?" he asked. She smiled.
"Miroku won't let me forget. He's wanted to see King Kong since he found out peter Jackson was remaking it. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have some paper work I need to fill out." Sango walked back to her office. It was another Friday night, movie night. Inuyasha hated being a third wheel to the engaged couple, but they made it known that they didn't care. Soon what was once something the couple did for the dateless detective out of pity became a bi-weekly event that they all looked forward too.
It wasn't that women didn't like Inuyasha; in fact it was quite the opposite. Lots of women were attracted to him, mostly because of his silver hair and golden eyes. He wore an enchanted bracelet to conceal his hanyou claws and ears though. He also had the reputation as an excellent special victims' detective. Not to mention his last name, Takahashi, was well known because of his father's wealth. The only thing that stopped him from having any dates was his stubbornness.
"For 48 hours I don't think that we left my hotel room
Should show you the sights
Coz I'm sure that I said that I would
We gotta make love just one last time in the shower
Well something's gotta go wrong
Coz I'm feelin' way too damn good" The radio sang. The movie, of course was excellent. But the company… well, he should have just gone to see it by himself.
Sango was normally a brave woman, and being a cop you sometimes had to be. But when the scene with the giant bugs came onto the screen she just lost it. It hurt to watch her cling onto Miroku like she did. It hurt watching him comfort her. It hurt knowing he had no woman to comfort. Because she left him, a long time ago.
"And it's like, every time I turn around
I fall in love and find my heart face down and
Where it lands is where it should
This time it's like
The two of us should probably start to fight
Coz something's gotta go wrong
Coz I'm feeling way too damn good, oh
Feelin' way too damn good"
Danmit Kikyo, why did you leave me? He thought and turned on the TV. On the news it showed Menomaru being carried away to prison. His cell phone rang.
"Hello?"
"Mr. Takahashi?" Inuyasha frowned. It was the father
"Hello Mr. Kotsu, can I help you with something?"
"No, we're fine. Matsu is asleep, which is good since he hasn't had much of it in a while."
"Glad to hear it."
"Yes…I was watching the news."
"Channel 5?"
"Yes…it feels good knowing that bastard will never get near my son again."
"By the time Menomaru gets out, if ever, Matsu will be about thirty-five, am I right?"
"Yes, thirty years of knowing Menomaru won't be on the streets."
"What is the real reason you called me sir?"
"To thank you. It will take a lot of counseling to fix my boy, but knowing that his m-m-,"
"I know what Menomaru was guilty of Mr. Kotsu."
"Yes…thank you for putting him away. It's a huge relief not hearing my wife cry at night anymore."
"It's my job sir."
"Still…thank you."
"Good luck with Matsu."
"Yes…goodbye." The man hung up. Inuyasha sighed and hung up too. Turning off his television, he went to sleep, knowing that tomorrow he would have to face the weekend.
"That's quite a bit of Ramen there sir." Inuyasha turned his head to find the face of a woman. She was stunning. She wore a black sweater that hugged her body and jeans that showed her curves. Raven hair tumbled down about four inches past her shoulder. She had brown eyes that just sparkled, grabbing your attention the second you looked at her. But her face…was almost exactly like hers. She had a cart filled with groceries, just like he did. Only his had a lot of ramen in it.
"Um, hello? Sir, are you alright?" She asked. Inuyasha was brought back to reality by her voice.
"Um, yeah, I do. I don't cook much, so this is basically my diet." She laughed. It wasn't a laugh-out-loud laugh, just a giggle to show she thought he was funny. What the hell am I doing? I am making small talk with this woman and I don't even know her name! This is so unfaithful to Kikyo!
Hello! Kikyo left you three years ago buddy, move on with your life!
Shut-up! Wait, am I talking to myself?
It would seem that way.
"Have a nice day. Maybe I'll see you around." She said and pushed her cart away.
Way to go moron! That could have been God giving you the gift of the perfect woman and you screwed it up!
Shut-up.
"So, what do you think this is all about?"
"Probably some bull-shit lecture about keeping our offices neater or something stupid like that." Inuyasha whispered back to his friend. Then entire Special Victims Unit was called in for a meeting by the chief.
"If you all would take the time to shut-up, I would like to start this," barked Kaede, a woman in her early fifties. She was head of the SVU. "Inuyasha, are you even listening?"
"Nope."
"Well, you should because this concerns all of us, especially you."
"Fine, what is it?"
"Actually, it's who is it. Inuyasha, you are getting a new partner. You partner is from San Francisco and has quite the reputation of being very good. The newbie just transferred here to New York not long ago and I'm told is eager to work with us. So please, give a warm welcome to Miss Kagome Higurashi." A few of the people in the room clapped or waved. Inuyasha looked up at the woman he would be working with.
His eyes grew wide.
It was the girl form the market.
Kagome brushed her hand through her hair. Why am I so nervous? I can keep my mouth shut with a knife to my neck but I can't face a new partner!
Kagome was the best of the best. Or so she thought. New York had needed a new SVU detective for some time, so her old captain reluctantly picked her to be transferred to the Big Apple. Now she was going to be partnered with THE Inuyasha Takahashi. Of course, moving to New York caused its troubles. Mostly, they were with her boyfriend, Koga.
Kagome packed her last box in her small apartment in San Francisco. Koga walked through the door with a determined look on his face.
"You're not going," he demanded. Kagome looked up at him with a shocked and angry look on her face.
"Koga, we talked about this. I'm going to New York to be apart of their SVU. I asked you to come with me, but you didn't want to leave your father's company."
"I don't care, you're staying here."
"No, I'm not." Koga kicked a box. His eyes were angry and crazy. For a minute, Kagome was scared.
"Danm it Kagome! Why do you have to go there and leave me? You don't have to work, I can support us both!"
Tears stung her eyes.
"Why can't you understand how important this is to me?" she cried. "If you love me, you'll help me fulfill my dreams!"
"Whatever! Fine! Do what you want bitch, don't expect me to wait for you to come to your senses when you come back!"
"I'm not coming back here Koga!"
"We'll see." He stomped out of the apartment and slammed the door. Kagome sat on her bed and cried.
Kagome shook her head at the memory. That was her past. This New York job would be her future. She had a new apartment. She could make new friends. She had a new job. But one thing was for sure…
She would not let a man lead her along again. She would not give her heart away just for a man to show his true colors and break it later.
"It's you!" Kagome gasped. "It's Ramen guy!" She pointed a finger at Inuyasha. Miroku began laughing shamelessly.
"I assume you've met her before, 'Ramen Guy'!" Sango punched his shoulder. He turned to look at his fiancé. "What? It's funny!" She whispered into his ear. Miroku's face grew grim, his eyes bugging out of their sockets. "No!"
"Yes," she replied with a sly grim.
"But-,"
"Miroku!"
He sighed and held a hand out to Kagome. "Hi, my name is Miroku and I work with the SVU here in New York City. I promise here and now not to grope, touch, caress, or stare at any limb, organ, or body part you may posses at any time. I have been known for such perverted acts, but all in good fun. Never have I forced anything on anyone. It is my job to catch and put away dirt bags, not to be one. The reason I am telling you this is because my fiancé does not want to scare, freak-out, or gross-out our new detective and co-worker and hopefully friend. I was threatened that if I didn't give this speech the act of sexual intercourse with the woman I love and adore would never occur in this or any lifetime. She would also gain the right to cut-off any body part, organ, or limb I posses, more specifically my penis. I look forward to working with you." He turned to Sango. "Happy now?"
"Very."
Kagome's face was pale. She limply shook his hand.
"Uh…okay?"
"Hi, my name's Sango. I'm the freak's fiancé. Pity me." Sago reached out a hand to Kagome and they shook hands too.
"Uh…okay?"
"You really like that word. Okay?" Inuyasha grunted at his own rude joke. Kagome turned hi head.
"And who the hell are you? The precinct monkey?"
A few of the people in the room oooohhhed at Kagome's insult. The two threw glares in each other's direction. Then Kagome's eyes widened.
"You're…a…a-,"
"Okay everyone, let's get back to work," Kaede said. Everyone but Inuyasha and Kagome left. The partners didn't break their gaze they held on each other. Kagome's eyes went softer. His eyes…I've never seen such a beautiful gold before.
This girl…she's beautiful.
Both detectives blushed.
"I'll see you around," she said and sped away from the room. Inuyasha slowly got up and left.
When they left for the night and returned to their respective homes, they both sat down in front of mirrors. Somehow they kept thinking about the eyes hat would never stop staring.
Did it rock? Did it suck? TELL ME!
