Chapter 40: Tsubasa's Party
"You didn't even pick it up?" Kanna asked. Everyone had left Kagome's house except for her and Inuyasha.
"Nope. I couldn't. He and I are done, Kan." Kagome sighed, stuffing her face with ice cream.
"Kagome, you just opened that pint of ice cream and you're already done with it." Inuyasha said warningly.
"How do you even do that without getting a brain freeze?" Kanna mused.
"It's a skill. Sota and I used to have ice cream eating contests all the time." Kagome licked her spoon.
"So what are you going to do about Tsubasa?" Kanna asked the question that the three of them were wondering.
"I have no earthly idea. He's cute and sweet, but I don't want things to move too quickly. We'll see where it goes. If it gets too intense too fast, I'll back out." Kagome answered just as her phone started to ring. She grabbed her phone then looked at her friends. "It's him!"
"Well answer it, genius." Kanna laughed.
Kagome stuck her out and answered her phone. "Hello?"
"Hey. I just wanted to thank you for inviting me. I had a lot of fun. It was nice meeting all of your friends and getting a little glimpse into your life." Tsubasa sounded nervous.
"Are you alright?" Kagome asked.
"Yeah. It's just that…I really do like you Kagome. I really wanna get to know you better."
"That's sweet." Kagome smiled.
"Well, I'll let you get back to whatever you were doing. Thank you, again. And I'll text you with my address when I move so we can have the party." Tsubasa said.
"Alright." Kagome told him then hung up the phone. "Why does this feel like my first crush?"
"I don't know Kags. You barely know anything about this guy." Inuyasha said, trying to hide the jealousy in his voice.
"You're right! But we live in the age of the interwebs!" Kagome exclaimed, pulling out her laptop. "To FaceBook!" Kagome quickly tapped away at the keys on her laptop. She found Tsubasa's page on the social website. "Wait. This feels wrong."
"Why?" Inuyasha asked. "Afraid you'll see something you won't like?"
"No, that's not the problem. The problem is that you aren't supposed to go looking for trouble." She clicked out of the internet page. "I've always trusted my instincts before, and I will continue to do so now. I really don't sense anything bad about him."
"Alright. If you say so. I still don't like him though." Inuyasha pouted.
Kagome and Kanna shared a look and then laughed at their haynou friend. It took less than a week for Tsubasa to move into a new home. Both Kanna and Inuyasha stayed over Kagome's house. They were cleaning the kitchen after having a food fight when the doorbell rang.
"I'll get it!" Kagome called, laughing. She answered the door and saw Tsubasa standing in front of her in a light winter coat and a scarf. "Hey there, Tsubasa. Come on in!" Kagome stepped to the side and let Tsubasa into her home.
"Hi Kagome. How've you been?" Tsubasa walked in, taking his scarf off.
"I've been fine Tsubasa. What's up?"
"I wanted to personally invite you to my New Year's party." He reached into his pocket and pulled out an invitation.
"Wow. These are pretty nice." Kagome ran her finger over the glossy flyer. "How many people are you inviting?"
"You guys and some people from my old school. The football team, I think the cheerleaders are gonna be there too." Tsubasa said.
"Oh gosh. I hope it doesn't turn into the last party I went to where there was another cheer team there." Kagome sighed and rolled her eyes.
"What happened?" Inuyasha had walked in the living room when he heard Tsubasa's voice.
"They challenged us to a cheer off. Half of their team was drunk, and drunk cheerleaders can't flip. Well, they can, but it's not a pretty sight." Kagome shrugged. "Their fault, not mine."
Tsubasa laughed and shook his head. "I have to run an errand for my mom. I'll see you at the party, right?"
Kagome smiled and nodded.
"Great." He smiled and leaned down to kiss Kagome on her cheek. She walked hhim to the door and closed it behind him.
"He had to come all the way over here to do that?" Inuyasha snorted.
"He saved on postage." Kagome joked lamely.
Inuyasha snorted and rolled his eyes. "What'd you get Sota for Christmas?"
"A new bike, a new soccer ball since the two of you have damn near trashed the one he has now, and three new games for his Xbob." Kagome rattled off the things she'd gotten her little brother.
"Wow. I wish Sesshomaru was like you when we were growing up." Inuyasha said.
Kagome laughed. "Oh you'll be alright. And now you've got me to buy you all kinds of stuff."
"Yeah, that's true. You're really good at shopping for people." Inuyasha noted.
Kagome shrugged. "I pay attention throughout the year and figure out what people need."
Kanna came out of the kitchen drying her hands. "I finished the kitchen."
"You're awesome! C'mon. Let's go get some hot chocolate and visit Sango." Kagome grabbed her car keys.
Kanna grabbed the invitation from the table where Kagome had placed it. "Um…Kagome…have you actually looked at this?" Kanna asked.
"Not really, why?"
"Because he moved into one of the empty condos in Mr. Taisho's building." Kanna said lowly.
"HE DID WHAT?!" Kagome screeched. With her coat half on, she took the invitation from Kanna and saw that she was indeed correct. Tsubasa had moved into the condo seven floors above Sesshomaru's. "Oh no no no no no no no." Kagome whined. "This isn't good. This is bad. This is really bad."
"Do you still trust him?" Inuyasha asked.
"Of course I do. He said that the condos were nice when we got there." Kagome sighed.
"One thing Naraku has taught me is that there is no such thing as a coincidence, Kagome." Kanna said softly.
Kagome shook her head. "Trust me, he has no idea about me and Sesshomaru. Otherwise he would've said something when he saw us in the kitchen the other night."
"I know we're kinda in the middle of a crisis right now, but I was really looking forward to that hot chocolate." Inuyasha tried to change the subject.
Kagome looked at her best friend and couldn't help but laugh. She loved his not so subtle attempt. "Alright. Let's go."
"Too bad his won't have a pool." Sango was saying when they arrived at her house and told her where Tsubasa had moved.
"He'd just have to use the pool in the backyard. It's still indoors." Inuyasha sipped his hot chocolate.
"Oh well that's still cool." Sango turned to Kagome.
"Yeah, I don't see the problem with going." Miroku sat down on the other side of his girlfriend.
"I never said there was a problem. I just told you where he lives." Kagome said.
"But you brought it up like it was a problem." Sango noted.
"You two are crazy. Anyways, we just wanted to stop by and tell you." Kagome got up and grabbed her coat.
"Wait! I need something to wear to the party." Sango grabbed Kagome's arm.
"Sango, you just went shopping yesterday." Miroku frowned.
"And I didn't buy anything to wear to the party. Now I need something to wear." Sango rolled her eyes.
"You and Inuyasha stay here. Kanna, Sango, and I will go shopping." Kagome said.
"Yeah. And if you're lucky, we'll pick up something to eat on the way back." Kagome put her coat on.
"Because I'm sure as hell not cooking." Kagome sighed and the three young ladies filed out to her car.
"Kanna, you should've been an ice demon. I think that would've been a cool power for you to have." Sango said when they got to the mall.
"Actually," Kanna scooped a handful of snow. She cupped it in both of her hands and when she opened them, there was a big ice shaped snowflake resting in her hands.
"That's so cool!" Sango exclaimed.
"Yeah! I wish I could do something like that!" Kagome said.
Kanna giggled. "Kagome, you can purge people from existence. I think that's pretty cool."
Kagome smiled and they continued to walk into the mall. Sango was feeling slightly inadequate. She wasn't a demon who could turn snow into ice sculptures, and she wasn't a miko who could make people disappear. She was just a regular human with nothing special about her. Kagome knew what her best friend was thinking, and she shook her head. "Sango, you can spot the best sales before we even get to the mall. That's pretty damn awesome to me."
Sango smiled. Kagome always had a way to cheer her up.
"Yeah, and I've never seen anyone do a back-back-front flip toe touch, hurkey, combination like you." Kanna added.
Sango's smile grew. She liked Kanna. At first, she'd be weary and very jealous of the tiny demon, but in the time she'd gotten to know the demon, she grew to like her and accept her as a friend.
"Alright. I think I want to wear something pink to Tsubasa's party. And it's gonna be cold the night of his party so we need to dress warm." Sango said.
"Shorts. Leggings. Combat boots. Long sleeved half shirt. We can all wear the same thing, but different color shirts and boots." Kagome suggested.
"I like that idea. Blue, black, and pink shirts. Black, gray, and brown boots. Same shorts. Same leggings." Kanna told them, looking at the shirts that she was thinking they could wear.
"Perfect." Kagome smiled.
They bought their clothes and browsed through a few more stores before they decided to head back to Sango's house.
"Hey Koga and Ayame are on their way to your house." Kagome said, looking at her phone. "Ayame just texted me."
Sango sighed. "If she tries anything with Tsubasa or any of the guys at the party, I might drown her."
Kagome laughed. "She's really something else."
"Do you really think she would try something so soon after what just happened at Mr. Taisho's house?" Kanna asked.
Kagome and Sango looked at each other, and then back at Kanna and nodded.
"She has this innate ability to make an ass out of herself for attention." Kagome said.
"You weren't here when it was her birthday. She tried to go off on Kags because all of the attention wasn't on her. But Kagome put her in her place then. And she fell then the punch bowl fell on her in her white dress." Sango rehashed that story.
"She was trying to impress some college girls. But they were pretty much social pariahs because of how stupid they were. I put them in their places, too." Kagome shrugged. "I have no problem putting someone in their place if no one else will. It's just the way I am."
Kanna couldn't help but hope that Kagome would be able to put Naraku in his place when the time came. On the way back to Sango's house, they all stopped and picked up soup for everyone from Kagome and Sango's favorite deli.
"He's inviting the football team from his old school?" Ayame was instantly interested in Tsubasa's party.
"Yeah. That's what he said. And he said that their cheerleaders are coming too." Kagome ate some of her soup.
Sango groaned. "I really hope it doesn't turn out like the last party we were at with cheerleaders."
"That's exactly what I said!" Kagome exclaimed. "But if it does, we'll be alright."
"What are you wearing?" Ayame asked.
Sango went to their shopping bags and pulled out their outfits.
"No one bought me a shirt." Ayame pouted and rolled her eyes.
"Actually, I bought you a green one. And you already have shorts, leggings, and boots." Kagome said, grabbing the smallest bag and tossing it to Ayame.
"Oh." Ayame blushed. "Thank you."
Finally, the days passed and it was time for Tsubasa's party.
"You sure you wanna go?" Inuyasha asked Kagome when she was getting ready.
Kagome was looking in the mirror putting her lip gloss on. "I already told him that I would go, and I don't like saying I'll do something then backing out of it. Besides, Tsubasa's on the seventh floor so I probably won't even see you know who."
Kanna came from the bathroom, already dressed.
"Kanna, you're hot, you know that?" Kagome asked, laughing.
Kanna shook her head and blushed. "Thank you." She paused. "Tell me something, Kagome. You're a cheerleader, really popular, and stunningly gorgeous, but you don't wear makeup. I thought all pretty popular girls wore makeup."
Kagome shook her head. "Makeup clogs your pores and too much of it makes you look like a clown. If I'm going somewhere really nice, then I'll put on a little eye shadow and some blush. But parties and everyday life, I'm good with tinted lip gloss."
"But Ayame wears makeup. A lot of it." Kanna said.
"Because Ayame likes attention. A lot of it." Kagome laughed.
"Hm…you have a point." Kanna nodded.
Inuyasha looked at Kagome and Kanna. They both looked good. Damn good. "Are the others coming over here?"
Just as he asked that, the doorbell rang. "Yeah. We're riding together and Ayame and Koga are riding with Sango and Miroku." Kagome answered, walking down the stairs.
"I got Miroku's cousin to get us a bottle of Skyy Vodka." Sango said, entering Kagome's house.
"You're awesome, Sang!" Kagome praised.
"Yeah, I know. Let's go!"
The two groups got into the car that they were riding in and headed to Tsubasa's house. When Kagome got out of the car, she hesitated. She only continued on when she couldn't feel Sesshomaru's aura in his condo. She let out the breath that she hadn't known she was holding, and continued into the main building where the elevator was.
"The seventh floor, Koga! Not the sixth!" Kagome scolded once they were on the elevator.
"Oh." Koga pressed the correct button.
Tsubasa was waiting at the door, having smelled Kagome and her friends when they got out of their cars. "Hey you guys! The party's already started." He grabbed Kagome and pulled her in for a hug.
Kagome and her friends walked inside of Tsubasa's home. The lights were dim and music was blaring. There were many people dancing and the rest were mingling. They took their coats off and Kagome went to stand beside Tsubasa. "Seems like you invited your whole school."
Tsubasa laughed. "Nah. But damn, you look good."
"Thank you." Kagome beamed.
"Nacho bar!" Koga cheered and ran to the food.
Ayame shook her head. "He's a fat ass." She scanned the room, seeing a bunch of attractive males. She smiled because she just knew that she would sleep with at least one of them before the night was over with.
Kagome and Sango noticed that look in Ayame's eyes and narrowed theirs. As soon as Ayame walked away, Sango slid to stand beside Kagome. "If she tries anything, make her human for the night."
Kagome laughed. "Good idea."
"Come dance with me!" Sango grabbed Kagome and Kanna's hands and led them to where everyone else was dancing. At first, Kanna was very shy but she took a couple of shots of the liquor they'd brought with them then got back onto the dance floor and she wasn't as scared anymore.
"Woo! Yeah Kan!" Kagome cheered as she danced with two of her best friends.
Miroku, Inuyasha, and Tsubasa watched the girls dance.
"Why the hell do they dance like that?" Miroku frowned. "They know every guy is gonna be on them like flies on shit." Miroku loved his girlfriend, and Kagome and Kanna were like the little sisters he never had, so he hated seeing guys on them all the time. Even though Kanna was quiet, she was gorgeous and he saw predatory eyes on them.
"They don't care. They just wanna have fun." Inuyasha remembered asking Kagome the same question and her giving him that answer. She didn't do what she did for attention; she did it because she liked it. She couldn't care less about who stared at her.
"I do too!" Tsubasa laughed and went to go dance with Kagome. Inuyasha and Miroku were not impressed, so they both sat down on the couch, sulking.
Kagome, Kanna, and Sango came off the floor giggling and went to get themselves something to drink. They sat on the couch with Inuyasha and Miroku.
"What's wrong with you two?" Kagome asked, nudging Inuyasha's shoulder.
Inuyasha shook his head and Tsubasa joined them on the couch. He was followed by a blonde haired snake demon. "Oh Tsu why'd you leave?"
"I need a break Saseko." Tsubasa said, visibly annoyed with the girl.
"Hi!" Kagome smiled, greeting the girl.
Saseko looked at her and frowned. "Hey." She said with an attitude.
Kagome narrowed her eyes and cocked her head to the side. She'd done nothing to the girl so she had no idea why she would have an attitude with her.
"Kagome, Kanna, Inuyasha, Sango, Miroku, this is Saseko. She's a cheerleader from my old school." Tsubasa introduced the girl. He was uncomfortable on the arm of the couch, so he walked to Kagome and pulled her off the couch gently and took her seat, placing her in his lap.
Kagome blushed while Saseko frowned at her again. She shook it off and put on her best smile for Tsubasa. "I really wish you weren't leaving. School is gonna be so boring without you. Who am I gonna cheer for at the games?"
"The rest of the team." Tsubasa answered dryly.
A giggling girl came from the crowd to stand behind Saseko. "Oh my gosh your hair is so pretty!" She gushed to Kanna. "Is that your natural hair color?"
Kanna smiled and nodded. "Thank you."
The girl reached out and touched her hair. "It's really soft."
Tsubasa laughed. "Hi Kimiko."
"Hi!" She chirped.
Kagome watched the newcomer. She liked her energy. Kagome noticed the feathers in her hair and smiled. Kimiko was a bird demon. She was always perky.
"Kimiko, these are my new friends." Tsubasa said and introduced everyone.
"Oooo Tsubasa's got a cruuuuush." She teased when he introduced Kagome.
Kagome's face flushed red and she ducked her head. Tsubasa laughed at Kimiko's tactics. She was another cheerleader from the school he was leaving, but she was different than most of them. Kagome reminded him a lot of her, except Kimiko didn't have Kagome's feisty attitude.
"Let's play whatever it is that we used to play after the games." Kimiko suggested.
"'Never Have I Ever'?Alright." Tsubasa said and tapped Kagome's thigh for her to stand up. Kagome stood and he grabbed her hand, leading her into the kitchen. "Here. Hold this, this, aaaaand this." He gave Kagome three bottles of liquor. One was peach vodka, one was whipped cream vodka, and the last one was tequila.
"Bringing out the heavy stuff, aren't we?" Kagome asked with a laugh. "A few shots of tequila and I'll be on my face."
"Hmmm…that's interesting to know." Tsubasa smirked.
Kagome stuck her tongue out at him and they walked out of the kitchen and back into the living room. Tsubasa turned down the music and the crowd made noises of disappointment.
"Oh shutup." Tsubasa laughed. "The name of the game is 'Never Have I Ever'. Everybody gather 'round." He'd already done a headcount and there were about thirty-three people at his party. He really hadn't invited that many since he wasn't a fan of huge crowds. The entire football team was made up of fifteen people and the cheerleaders made twenty-five. Tsubasa gave everyone a cup of liquor. He knew who wanted the tequila and who wanted the vodka. "Everybody know the rules?"
"Yeah. But we don't know who that is standing beside you." One of his former teammates called out and everyone started laughing, but Tsubasa knew that the young demon was serious, and he knew that the rest of the team, and probably some of the cheerleaders wanted to know as well.
"This is my new friend Kagome." Tsubasa introduced her and she smiled and waved. "And these are her friends." Tsubasa pointed to the couch and called the names of everyone on it. "Alright. Who wants to start?"
"I'll go." The demon who'd just questioned who Kagome was spoke up. "Never have I ever paid for porn." He laughed.
A few people around the room took a drink and Kagome laughed. She was sitting on the floor in between Inuyasha and Tsubasa. Her friends were on the side where Inuyasha was, and the person on the other side of Tsubasa was Saseko, who was obviously not pleased that Kagome was sitting so close to Tsubasa. Every so often during the game, he would lean over and whisper something in Kagome's ear that was too low for Saseko to hear and Kagome would giggle.
"Never have I ever been naked in the rain." It had gotten to Saseko.
Kagome lifted her cup to her lips and swallowed some of the bitter, but slightly sweet, peach vodka.
"Why the hell were you naked in the rain?" Tsubasa asked.
"I'm not telling youuuu." Kagome answered in a sing-song voice.
Tsubasa smiled and shook his head. "Never have I ever had sex outside."
Many people lifted their cups, and Tsubasa watched as Kagome did it with a blush on her face. She was remembering one evening that she and Sesshomaru had had sex on the roof of the very building they were all in. Next, it was Kagome's turn. "Never have I ever fooled around on my sibling's bed." Kagome glanced around the room and laughed at some of the people that were drinking. She saw Inuyasha lift his cup to his mouth in what he'd thought was secret. Oh, she'd grill him for that later on.
"Never have I ever gotten caught having sex." Inuyasha glared at Sango and Miroku, remembering a time where he and Kagome had walked in on them, in Kagome's living room, no less!
The game was only fun when people asked the dirtiest questions. Pretty soon, there was a really good buzz going around the room. Kagome decided to switch up her liquor and grabbed the bottle of tequila. Tsubsa snatched it from her and grabbed a lemon wedge and some salt of the table and did a shot off her stomach. The guys in the room cheered while the girls in the room, that weren't Kagome's friends or Kimiko, glared in evny.
"Alright! New game! Sexiest shot wins!" One of Tsubasa's human male friends called out.
Everyone cheered in agreement. Since Tsubasa had already decided that he was going to claim Kagome, Inuyasha decided that he would play with Kanna. After all, he didn't want to lick a place on Kagome where Tsubasa had licked.
"But Tsu I wanted to be your partner." Saseko whined.
"Stop whining Saseko." Kimiko said with a smile. "You can be partners with Renji." She pointed to a demon on the other side of the room.
Saseko rolled her eyes. "Fine."
Everyone took turns doing shots while the rest of the room was watching. Tsubasa kicked it up a notch when he poured his shot in Kagome's mouth, the salt on her cleavage, and the lime on her neck. He kissed Kagome for his shot and didn't stop kissing her even when the tequila was gone.
"Ugh!" Saseko yelled. She was drunk and visibly angry.
Tsubasa finally moved from Kagome's mouth and picked up the lime wedge with his teeth. Kagome was blushing, drunk, and incredibly horny.
"Alrighty then." Kagome slurred, slightly flustered. "I think that's enough of that game."
"Dance time!" Kanna yelled and pumped her fists in the air. It was obvious that she was drunk since she was loud, but everyone agreed and someone turned the music back on and they started dancing. Tsubasa stood behind Kagome and danced up against her. A slow song came on and he started grinding against her. She felt his hardness against her behind and she turned around. Kagome wrapped her arms around Tsubasa's neck and continued grinding against him. Tsubasa's hands slid around Kagome's waist and he pulled her tight to him and leaned down and kissed her.
"BITCH!" Kagome heard someone yell behind her, but she was too lost in Tsubasa. With the tequila and vodka in her system, and Tsubasa's lips on hers, Kagome was about ready to rip their clothes off in front of everyone. It wasn't until someone grabbed Kagome's shoulder that she registered that she and Tsubasa weren't the only people in the room.
"What?!" Kagome bit, whipping around to whoever had grabbed her, ready to do some serious damage.
"Who the fuck do you think you are?!" Saseko spat.
"Who I am, or who I think I am is of no concern to you. Begone, bitch!" Kagome said. She was drunk, but she could still form sentences.
Saseko balled up her fist to punch Kagome, but she was met with a spiritual barrier. She clawed at the barrier to no success.
Kagome was pissed beyond words so she let her barrier down and grabbed Saseko by her neck. Kagome let her hand ignite with her energy. "If you ever lay a hand on me again, I will kill you without the slightest hesitation. Do you under-fucking-stand?!" One thing most people didn't know about Kagome is that when she was drunk, every emotion she had intensified one hundred fold. In her anger, she really could have killed Saseko, but she knew better. Kagome threw the demon to the ground and left her gasping for air. Kagome marched to the door when someone else grabbed her shoulder. She turned around and saw it was Tsubasa. "I'm leaving."
"You're too drunk to drive anywhere." He told her gently.
Kagome shook her head. She needed to leave. She was angry. She was horny. And suddenly, she was incredibly sad. She had an almost overwhelming feeling to cry and she wouldn't do it in front of these people. "I need some fresh air."
"I'll come with you." Tsubasa reached for his coat.
"No. This is your party. Stay here." She left out of the door, leaving her friends and the rest of the party staring in confusion.
"You sure know how to pick 'em." Renji said.
"Saseko, you need to leave." Tsubasa told the crying demon.
"You saw her threaten me!" She cried out.
"Yes, after you grabbed her and tried to punch her. Kagome's a miko. A really strong one. If she wanted you dead, you'd be dead." Tsubasa sighed.
"I'm going to the police! She left marks on my neck." Saseko grabbed her coat.
"You probably shouldn't do that." Inuyasha warned.
"Why not?! I will have her thrown in jail." She hissed like the snake she was.
A lot of people had already gotten back to dancing, the small brawl forgotten. The only ones that were paying attention were Kagome's friends and Tsubasa.
"Because her mom's one of the best lawyers in Japan. The police know Kags and the Higurashi name. They're gonna be on her side, no matter what." Inuyasha told her.
"Plus," Koga added, "you're underage and drunk."
"She's drunk too."
"Yeah, but again, she's Kagome Higurashi. The police wouldn't act against her in any way." Koga shrugged and sat on the couch with another plate of nachos.
Saseko frowned and walked to the bathroom.
"Should someone go after her?" Tsubasa asked.
Inuyasha and Kanna shook their heads. "She wants to be alone right now. Kags likes the cold. It'll do her some good to be able to breathe."
"But she's drunk and it's dark. What if someone attacks her?" Tsubasa was concerned.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "She'd purify you just for saying that. And you saw the way she just handled that Saseko bitch."
Tsubasa nodded his head, knowing Inuyasha was right.
Kagome was on the elevator in a corner crying. She'd been trying to be strong, to not let anything get to her. It's the way she was raised. But things with Tsubasa were happening way too fast for her. She liked him. A lot. But she knew she wasn't over Sesshomaru. Sesshomaru. This was all his fault! Kagome looked at the buttons on the elevator and saw she'd already pressed the button to the first floor, so maybe she'd known all along where she was going.
Kagome walked angrily to his front door and knocked…angrily.
Sesshomaru was in his room on New Year's Eve, alone. He was angry. He was sad. He was…hurting. He missed Kagome terribly. He'd smelled her and the rest of her friends when they'd entered the building. He knew exactly where they were going as he had smelled that wretched bear demon earlier that week. He was moving into the building on the seventh floor. The kami must have hated him. He was a ruthless lord in his earlier life, perhaps this was their way of punishing him.
First, they gave him the perfect woman. But they made her too young, and she was his student. Second, they'd made them fall in love, despite the obvious reasons they shouldn't be together. He was addicted to her. Her scent, her smile, her laugh. He was attracted to her intelligence, her eyes, the way she was determined to succeed. She was ruthless in her own way, but never the way he had been in his life. She ruthlessly conquered everything that was thrown at her. She studied, she practiced, she trained, she was perfect for him. But he'd messed it up. He messed it all up and she left him. If he could just have a chance to explain. Another chance with her was all he wanted.
Sesshomaru didn't expect to hear anyone beat on his door. And when he opened it, he most certainly didn't expect to see a drunken, crying Kagome on the other side.
