Kagome was all smiles as she walked into HQ with Rin, hand and hand. After picking up her party dress, the only thing she wanted from the shrine, Kagome wanted to stop by work to see how the investigation was going before deciding what she was going to be doing for the rest of the day.
Stepping out of the elevator Kagome saw her team lounging around the debriefing room. She bent, " Hey little cheeky, how about you go to my office and google a bedroom set you want."
Rin grinned, " Really?"
Kagome just nodded, shooing her off with a pat to her butt, " Ask M for help if you need it."
Rin nodded, running towards the back, " Okay!"
Kagome just smiled, watching her go, Hampton walked over to her, " Cute kid."
The miko smirked, " Isn't she."
He just raised a brow, " You and the demon starting a family now?"
She shrugged, turning towards the table, " I don't know, maybe." she plopped down in the chair in front of her, " Any news?"
Ayame turned in the chair with a grin, " You're not gonna believe this." she bit into her apple, " Around 2 this morning, a contact of mines sees our little red eyed she-demon leaving the Russian bear's house."
Kagome raised a brow, " Klaus?" she blinked, " Now why would Kagura be in the house of a Don?"
Ayame shrugged, " Shi shi said she didn't look so happy on the way in and worse on the way out."
Hampton sat down, " Best guess is Naraku traded her for something." he glanced over to the miko, " Bet you can find out what."
Kagome grinned, " He's the one that likes pain, right?"
Gruff walked in from the back of the room, hearing the conversation, " Yes he is, go see what you can pull out of him. Local PD picked up the dealers on Kagome's buy list yesterday, Ayame I need you to go do interrogations."
The wolf grinned, " No problem." the team knew Ayame, and her demented mind is the best at getting information from unwilling participants.
Gruff sipped from a cup of coffee, " Hampton follow up with the police about the shipment last night, find out what else was on the boat and how many other shipments of these weapons have come in."
Hampton nodded, " On it."
Gruff took another sip of his drink, " And can someone tell me why there's a 6 yr old running around my office?"
Kagome grinned, " She's 10 Baba." she glanced over, " And she's with me."
Gruff raised a brow, then just nodded, " I'm not babysitting." he turned, " Get to work, the council will be here later looking for an update, let's have something to give them."
Everyone stood, Kagome stretched her arms over her head as she turned to her best friend, " So, you gonna tell me what's up with you and the wolf prince?"
Ayame giggled with a smile, " He can't keep his hands off me but I'm making him work for it."
Hampton walked over and slapped her butt, " Never made me work for it."
Ayame just rolled her eyes, " I happen to like this guy that's why."
Kagome laughed, shaking her head, " Biscuit you don't count, you can get in any girl pants."
Hampton winked, making Kagome blow him a kiss, Ayame raised a brow at the action, glancing to her ex fiancé, " Kagome was a virgin, so I know you two didn't fuck."
Hampton grinned, " We didn't, but how do you think she knows how to kiss so well. And give head."
Ayame coughed, turning to her best friend, " What!"
Kagome just shrugged, " I had just got out of jail, I had to practice with someone."
Ayame laughed and shook her head, " I am not doing this right now."
The tiger grinned, " You know Kagome we haven't practiced in a long time."
Kagome just laughed, " I practice with my husband now."
He just shrugged, " Your lost."
The trio just shook their head with laughter, they were an odd family. Kagome giggled, " So, I'mma set Rin up before I go see this bear then maybe we can meet at the mall before the debriefing."
The other two nodded, " Deal."
Kagome nodded then turned to her office, cupping her hands over her mouth, " Rin!"
It only took a second for the young girl to come running down the hall, a smile like Christmas morning on her face. She leaped up into Kagome arms, waving a piece of paper in her hand. " I found one!"
Kagome caught the girl, a swirl of warmth running through her at the happiness of the child. She held her on her hip, " Let me see."
Rin was grinning, " Its a princess theme." she giggled, " I always wanted to be a princess."
Kagome hugged the girl close, " You are so damn cute!" walking over to the elevator.
Ayame and Hampton watched the two leave, Ayame smiled, " She's gonna make a great mother."
Hampton agreed, " You would too."
She turned to her partner, " How come you never told me about you and Kagome?"
" Jealous?"
She rolled her eyes, " You wish."
Hampton just laughed, grabbing the demoness in a bear hug, " Relax cupcake, you're still my favorite."
" Put me down asshole."
It was 2:57, Souta was parked in the front of a school waiting for his girlfriend to be released for the day. He was listening to music with the top down of the Audi he was borrowing from Kagome's garage of expensive vehicles, shades blocking the sunlight from his gaze. His fingers tapped on the steering wheel as he bobbed softly to the rap that came out the speakers. It has been an odd few days, since the reception he hasn't left Connie's side. He picked her up and dropped her off, he brought her lunch and dinner and on weekends she was staying over his place. Kagome let him keep the hotel suite as long as he stayed with Hampton through the week. He wanted her to stay with him full time, but her scholarship had dorm requirements. His friends were quick to call him whipped but he didn't care, he wanted to be with her 24/7, not only as protection but he loved the aura she emitted. There was something about her that just drew you in, even though it's only been a few days, to him, it felt like a lifetime.
He wondered if he should buy her a gift, he had his eyes on this bracelet he seen on a jewelry website but wasn't sure that was Connie's style. Though she didn't throw money in the air or flaunt how much she had, he knew she liked expensive things, shiny things, fast things. She liked looking good in whatever she was riding in or on her body. He smirked to himself, she was a bit conceited, but the cutie pie had a right to be. And he wanted to do something nice for her, to show that he really cared about her.
He turned as the front doors of the school opened, Souta raised a brow as Connie stepped out with her roommate and a trail of boys behind them. Connie was smiling, Souta took the moment to look her over. Her skinny navy-blue jeans had a green dragon covering her entire left leg. The rim of her white boxers under her red leather belt. An emerald green leather half jacket snug over her arms. Unzipped to show her red tank top she had underneath showing her kissable abs. The front cuffs of her pants slightly tucked into her red and green sneaker wedges she wore. Her bangs brushed back in a sexy curved bump, the rest pulled back in a tight bun, deadly Chinese sticks poking out, huge diamond studs in her ears. Her makeup a brick red lipstick, with a smoky eye shadow and cat eyeliner.
He smirked at the beauty of the caramel skinned girl, she always looked so amazing. He saw one of the guys from the group of boys walk over and grab Connie's waist. Immediately he got out the car, he wasn't the jealous type until he met Connie. He saw her pull away from the guy with a roll of her eyes, but he only stepped forward, grabbing her more firmly by her arm.
He stepped forward, " Yo." Connie stepped back, out of the boys grasp as Souta reached her side, she was already shaking her head, " Baby don't."
The young teen raised a brow, his brown eyes laughing, " Who you?"
Souta just frowned, " I'm her boyfriend, touch her again and I'mma break your fucking face. Got it."
The kid just rolled his eyes, " Whatever." turning away to rejoin his group of friends.
Connie shook her head as Souta took her books, walking her to the car, " Souta you can't do stuff like that, what if he would have tried to fight you, there's 6 of them against 2."
Souta opened the door for her, " Against 2?"
She smirked, sliding into the luxury car, " I wouldn't have let you fight them alone."
He grinned, she was always ready to have his back, he loved that about her. He slid into the driver's spot and cranked the car up, " I can handle 6 on my own, don't worry about it."
She just rolled her eyes with a smile, " Your jealousy is cute but unnecessary." a hand reached over and covered the one on the stick of the vehicle, " I'm all yours."
He smirked, raising the hand to his lips to kiss, " Damn right you are."
She giggled at his cuteness, " So, what do you want to do today?"
He glanced over as he drove down the street, " Would you like to meet my parents?"
Connie blinked her black eyes, this was a big step, " Are you sure?"
Souta shrugged, eyes on the road, " I want everyone to know how much you mean to me."
Her smile was soft as she stared at the teen driving the car, this was happening fast, but it felt so right, it felt so real. She shook her head, glancing out the window, she shouldn't be this hooked this fast. They didn't even have sex yet, it just felt like forever with him, as if she known him all her life. And he was so adamant about showing everyone they were together, telling everyone they were a couple. Proving he was serious about her, letting her and the world know she was his first girlfriend and the only girlfriend he wanted.
She received so much hate from other girls in the neighborhood and at her school for dating the once playboy, but he was quick to shut the rumors down. He knew what type of person he was like before meeting her and told her about all the things he done to get what he wanted from a female. But when anyone approached her about their relationship, he defended it with all his heart. He told girls, in front of her, that she was the one he wanted, and they were just a fling. He even went as far as apologizing to girls for being a dick but explaining she was the one he wanted to be with.
She was fighting it, she knew she was, fighting the strong urge to trust him. She wasn't sure yet, she wanted to be, her heart told her she was, but she fought it. She saw what happened when a girl put her heart in someone, and it got broken. She wasn't willing to face that type of heartache, after seeing it destroy her friends, she refused to be on that receiving end. Ever.
Her hand was lifted and brought to smooth lips for a soft kiss, " Relax. They'll love you."
She smiled, " You think so?"
He shrugged again, not too concerned about the meeting, " It'll be fine."
She rolled her eyes at the confidence but stayed quiet as he pulled off the highway. It didn't take him long to pull up to his childhood home, a large house with a shrine in the back. He got out and walked around the car, opening the door for her. Connie just smiled; he was such a gentleman. She leaned into his warmth as he grabbed her hand and walked with her up the steps.
With a smirk, he kissed her forehead before knocking on the door. Though he still had his key, he wanted someone to answer so he didn't have to actually go looking around the house. He didn't want them to get the idea that he was moving back in. He actually liked living with the tiger from the RDSVU. They had a lot in common with their boyish charm and Hampton understood him and his feelings for Connie on a level he was sure his family wouldn't. Hampton was a playboy himself, but he believed in fate, he believed in love, and he believed in destiny. The tiger opened his mind to different possibilities of why Connie was put in his path. He was like an older brother to him, and Souta would be the first to admit he liked hanging around the demon.
After another knock, the front door finally opened, his father was the one that answered though his mother stood right behind him. May smiled, " Souta sweetie, you came home." her brown eyes glanced to the girl beside her son, " Who's your friend?"
Souta touched Connie's shoulder, " Mom, dad, this is Connie. My girlfriend."
Atomi looked the girl over slowly, then raised a brow, " I don't remember you ever having a girlfriend son."
Souta just nodded, " She is my first and the only one."
Atomi smirked at the confidence of his child, then shook his head, " Well I guess you always liked a challenge."
Souta blinked at the confusing statement, " What do you mean?"
May shook her head frowning, " Souta you can't be serious. What do you think people will say about us."
Connie raised a brow, just as confused as her boyfriend, she glanced to him, seeing the raise of his brow as he spoke, " What?"
May rolled her brown eyes, " You can be friends with Negros, but you can't date one Souta that is just bad news."
Connie gasped at what just escaped the woman's mouth, her anger set in quick, but she forced it down. With a shake of her head, she turned away, marching down the steps. Souta shook his head, shocked at what was just said, " Connie wait!"
He turned to his mother, " Why the fuck would you say some shit like that!"
Atomi just shrugged, " I'm sure your mother didn't mean to be rude Souta, but she is right. I can understand your interest in experimenting, but you should know better than to publicly claim one."
Before anyone can blink, he turned throwing a fierce right hook, dropping his father to the floor. He then turned to his mother, grabbing her by the front of her dress. May touched her son's shoulders, eyes wide, realizing she was about a foot off the floor, " Souta put me down!"
His eyes narrowed, angry, " I will never forgive you for this."
Dropping her to the ground, he turned, taking the steps two at a time to try to catch up with his girlfriend. But by the time he got back to the car, her bookbag was already gone. He turned in every direction, trying to see if he could catch a glimpse of which was, she went but it was no use. She was a fairy after all, she probably just puffed somewhere else. He shook his head, still not understanding what just happened. The phone in his pocket rung, he immediately pulled it up, pressing it to his ear, hoping it was her, " Connie."
" No, its me."
Souta shook his head, " Kags."
There as a pause on the other line, as if the miko can sense her brother's distress, " What's wrong?"
He frowned, " You won't believe it."
" I got time for a story, meet me at your place in 5."
He shook his head, hanging up, he wanted to go look for Connie, to apologize to her, to show her that his parents were idiots. But he could tell Kagome needed him, and no matter what, his sister will always come first. With an angry sigh he got in the car and pulled off in a screech of smoke.
It didn't take him long to get back to his hotel suite, he wanted to go by Connie's dorm but knew he had to see his sister first. He was quick, taking the steps instead of waiting for the elevator. Kagome wanted something, he knew his sister very well and he knew he was going to give her whatever she asked for. He just wanted it to be quick so he can go look for his hopefully still girlfriend.
As soon as he walked in, Kagome who already let herself inside, walked over to him and touched his cheek, turning his head from side to side, checking him for bruises. Souta smiled with a roll of his eyes as his sister inspected him, " I'm not hurt."
She pulled away, raising a brow, " Then what's wrong?"
Souta shook his head, his frown back in place, " Mom just called Connie a negro and said I can't date her."
Water was heard spewing out of an unsuspected mouth, Kagome and Souta turned to the couch seeing Rin wipe her face with her arm. " Sorry."
Souta raised a brow, " Who's that?"
Kagome just smiled, " You remember Rin from the reception, right? She's staying with me for a while. I need you to watch her why I handle some business real quick."
Souta blinked, then shook his head, he really didn't want to say no to his sister but, " I really need to find Connie. I need to apologize to her."
Kagome grinned, " Rin can help with that."
The small girl nodded, " We need to go gift shopping first. I'm really good at that."
Kagome walked over and ran her hand through the young girl's bang, " See, she's helping already." bending, she ran her hand across her cheek, " I'll see you later kid."
Rin smiled with a nod, " Later." she whispered before leaning forward without thinking and kissing the tip of the female's nose. Something her mother use to do to her all the time.
Kagome smiled, she was so cute, standing she turned, walking over to her brother, " I'll text you, meet me at the mall so I can pick her up." she said, kissing his temple, " Later."
Souta frowned, knowing he didn't have a choice in the matter, " Later." he watched as Kagome left the room before turning to the kid still drinking her water on the couch, " You really think a gift will fix this?"
Rin just raised a brow, " If someone called me that, you better not approach me without a box in your hand unless you want missing teeth."
Souta grinned, he might just like this kid, " Okay, let's go."
