Time To Leave

Mikomi got to her feet quickly; she had been lying on the floor for over half an hour.She cursed herself. 'Why oh why was she so nosy?'

She suddenly felt insecure and vulnerable, so she ran over to the sofa and jumped into it pulling up the sheet up to her nose.

She tried to get to sleep but the image of Sesshoumaru's red eyes and the possibility of him being a demon tormented her through 3 damned hours.

7:00am

Mikomi and Sesshoumaru ate their breakfast in silence. Well, Sesshoumaru did anyway.

Mikomi watched him spread butter on his perfectly toasted toast. She got up and put two slices of bread into the toaster. She had no idea how to use it, there were so many buttons! She hesitated whether to ask Sesshoumaru how to use it, and she decided to, which was a lot wiser than pressing the wrong button and blowing up his pristine kitchen.

"Er…ahem, Sesshoumaru?"

No answer.

"Erm…could you tell me how to use this? Please?"

Sesshoumaru put down his knife, and started eating his toast. She noticed that his face remained blank all the while he ate. It was as though he didn't want to eat.

Mikomi felt anger surging inside her but she kept her cool. She had done enough damage.

She turned to the toaster and randomly pressed a button. It seemed to be the right one as the two slices of bread were gradually starting to turn brown.

Mikomi smiled at herself.

'Huh! I don't need that asses help, I can handle this!' Famous last words.

A few seconds later black smoke had started to drift out of the toaster. Mikomi panicked and pressed another button. Wrong choice. Thicker smoke was coming out now.

She couldn't find where the plug was so she was now hopping on the spot occasionally blowing inside the toaster.

Sesshoumaru stood up and put his plate in the sink, he then he strolled over to the toaster and clicked a switch which turned the damned thing off at once.

He 'hmphed', lifted his suitcase and gracefully exited the apartment. Leaving Mikomi standing there with her mouth open.

"All I had to do was flick that switch? That was it?" She threw her arms up in exasperation.

Mikomi finished her cereal, (the toast was burnt to ashes) grabbed her coat, a newspaper and walked out of the flat.

She was circling possible jobs in the newspaper while walking across the car park when she looked up at Sesshoumaru's apartment. (Top floor)

'Wow, he has a balcony!'

She glanced around and noticed that every apartment had a balcony. She sighed and carried on walking.

"What took you so long?"

Mikomi looked up and saw Sesshoumaru leaning against a brand new looking silver Mazda.

She was taken aback; he had waited 10 minutes to give her a lift? Something bad was going to happen, she could feel it, he doesn't forgive so easily.

She closed her mouth which was hanging open at the sight of Sesshoumaru's car and walked up to him. He went over to the other side of the car and got in. Mikomi wasn't sure what to do but she got in the car anyway. This seemed to be what he was waiting for as he nodded and turned on the ignition.

666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-666-6

They drove out of the complex in silence until Sesshoumaru asked,

"What is your destination?"

"Erm…"

Mikomi handed Sesshoumaru the newspaper and pointed to an advert circled in red pen.

Sesshoumaru glanced at it and turned left to park near a greasy restaurant. His lip was slightly curled as he imagined Mikomi working there.

Mikomi looked at the restaurant and sighed. Well, it was worth a try.

She awkwardly thanked Sesshoumaru and informed him that she would be taking the bus back. Then she remembered something.

"Hey, why did you go on the bus that day if you had this car all along?"

"It was scratched." Was Sesshoumaru's answer before he drove away.

Mikomi stared after him. Then straightened up and turned to face…her future?

3 hours later

Mikomi stormed out of the 12th restaurant of the day. She had been interviewed by 12 different managers and all of them said stupid things like,

"Sorry, no space." or "You don't look good enough" or "Do you even have any experience?" or "Well, I could give you the job…but I wont. Good day to you."

She was positively fuming now. How is it that every restaurant in town rejected her?

Mikomi was too angry to wait around for a bus driver to feel sorry for her and stop so she decided to walk all the way back.

"Hey! Mikomi!"

She ignored the female voice. She didn't know who it was and she didn't care.

"Heeeeey! Wait up!"

Mikomi walked faster.Then someone grabbed her arm,

"DO YOU MIND!"

Mikomi spun around to strangle the airhead when she stopped.

"Oh! It you Kagome."

Kagome smiled.

"Why didn't you wait for me?"

"Um, well 1) I didn't know it was you. And 2) I've just had the crappiest morning of my life."

Kagome smiled sympathetically.

"Aw, well, never mind! How about you and me go to that new place down the road?"

Mikomi wasn't in the mood but she couldn't say no to Kagome. She let her drag her all the way while listening to Kagome's complaints of Inuyasha's annoying guy habits.

Sesshoumaru entered his office to find his father already sitting in his chair.

"Father, please go to your own office."

Inutaisho grinned and got to his feet. Sesshoumaru put down his suitcase and asked,

"Why so content father?"

Inutaisho was still wearing that annoying grin as he walked up to Sesshoumaru and put a hand on his shoulder.

"No reason. Only that I have discovered some wonderful news about you."

Sesshoumaru shrugged Inutaisho's hand off his shoulder and went to sit in his black leather chair.

"And what would that be?"

"Oh…a little birdie has just informed me that you have a human girl living in your apartment."

Sesshoumaru stiffened. Inutaisho's grin widened.

"Aaah, had a change of heart son?"

"Do be quiet father. You are being ridiculous."

"Don't deny your feelings Sesshoumaru."

Sesshoumaru stood up. "I have no feelings. And I don't intend to."

Inutaisho's grin faded a little. But he wasn't going to give up that easily.

"Then why allow a human girl into your apartment? That was not my intention when I shared my arrangement with you"

Sesshoumaru walked around his desk and stood facing a huge window. He observed the view below before he answered.

"A series of unfortunate events left me with no choice."

"Then why not put her in another apartment?"

"They were occupied."

"All of them?"

"Yes father, all of them."

Sesshoumaru continued to look out the window. Inutaisho walked up to him and observed the view too.

"I trust things are going well?"

"No they are not."

"How come?"

"She invaded my privacy."

Inutaisho chuckled.

"What did she do? Walk in on you while you were having a shower?"

Sesshoumaru glared at him.

"No. She saw me sleeping."

Inutaisho stared at him. He looked worried.

"Did she see anything…unnecessary?"

Sesshoumaru returned to the view outside.

"No."

Inutaisho looked relieved.

"So?"

"So what?"

"What will happen?"

"She will have to go."

Inutaisho bowed his head and sighed.

"Son, don't do anything rash just because I suggested a relationship between you two."

Sesshoumaru turned to face him.

"She saw the markings."

Inutaisho looked up at him. He put a hand on his shoulder.

"Are you going to tell her?"

"She needn't know."

"How do you know that she hasn't found out by herself?"

"I just do."

Inutaisho turned to leave.

"You WILL fall in love sometime Sesshoumaru. Maybe not with her. But when you do. Don't fight it."

Sesshoumaru said nothing.He waited until Inutaisho had left the room, then said softly.

"You're wrong."

She stirred her ice tea with a straw boredly, occasionally nodding to what Kagome was saying.

"So then I told Sango that she should just leave him, anyway Miroku likes her but he always acts like a dork because that Kuranosuke is always around! Anyway, that's enough about what happened to me today-"

'Ya think!' Mikomi thought.

"-So, what's new Mikomi?"

Mikomi had been waiting for this since ever. She burst out with all her troubles and worries and how she can't get a decent job. Then she took in a much needed breath and went back to stirring her now luke-warm tea.

Kagome had listened politely. And Mikomi felt guilty for ignoring her before.

Then Mikomi added, "Oh yeah, I'm living with some guy called Sesshoumaru now."

Kagome, who had been drinking a mega sized strawberry milkshake through a straw stopped sucking immediately. And stared at Mikomi as if she had just come down from the sky.

"You're what?"

Mikomi couldn't see the big deal but she supposed Kagome was worried because she was living with a stranger.

"Yeah. My flat got taken away and Sesshoumaru had saved me from getting robbed before and-"

Kagome put down her shake and exclaimed "HE WHAT!"

Mikomi put up her hands defensively.

"Calm down. Nothing got taken."

Kagome shook her head.

"No! I mean Sesshoumaru never helps anyone, especially a human!"

Mikomi stared at her. What did she mean a human? She ignored it.

"You know Sesshoumaru?"

Kagome sighed as if this was the most obvious question in the world.

"Duh! Of course I know him! He's my Inuyasha's older brother!"

Mikomi stared at her unbelievingly.

"He's Inuyasha's brother? Whoa."

Kagome had calmed down now and picked up her milkshake and began to suck noisily again.

Mikomi looked down and stirred her tea.

"So…would it be bad if I said that I went into his room and saw him sleeping?"

Kagome coughed and spluttered on her milkshake which fell to the floor as she stood up and grabbed the front of Mikomi's shirt pulling her up until she their noses were almost touching-

"WHADDYA MEAN YOU SAW HIM SLEEPING? ARE YOU NUTS?" Kagome exploded.

Mikomi winced at the force and loudness of her voice.

"Its no big deal I mean-"

"ARE YOU FRIGGIN' CRAZY? IT'S A VERY BIG DEAL! YOU SAW HIM SLEEPING! HOW ARE YOU STILL ALIVE?"

Everyone in the bar had turned to look and a few people in the streets had stopped to stare at the mad woman.

Mikomi help her hands up defensively.

"O.k-o.k, I'm sorry. Relax will you?"

Kagome let go of Mikomi's shirt who slumped back into her chair and cowered.Kagome sank into her chair and ran a hand through her hair.

Inuyasha came into view running up to their table.

"Hey Wench! I could hear ya from the other side of town, what's going on?"

Kagome pointed at Mikomi who was sliding lower into her chair.

"She walked into Sesshoumaru's room when he was sleeping." She said faintly.

"WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?"

Mikomi sighed 'Here we go again.'

Yay! Inuyasha's finally in the story! Rejoice people! Good chappie coming up so pleez review! Naraku will enter this story, I can't leave my little Nakiepooh out can I?And of course my spiders will not allow it. They love him too.
