Seasons passed and Sesshomaru took note of how quickly girls at Kagomes age changed. She had just entered her first year of high school, but he would soon graduate. Their school rides would soon come to a end in a few months.
But even though she was changing on the outside, she was still the same girl on the inside. Loud, a bit crazy, but overly to nice sometimes. He wondered how she would fair without him, but then he wondered if she would have been better off not knowing him. She missed every middle school dance and while she never said so, he knew it was hit fault. He knew her crush was no different then the other girls and so he never wanted to give her the wrong idea, so he never offered to take her.
Sesshomaru pulled up to her house for her first day of high school and he waited and sure enough she appeared at the top of her shrine steps. He drove know, he liked the freedom and the car. It was a two door sports car, white on the outside and black on black leather inside with red trimming.
While she noticed the car, he noticed her, ot more the lack there of her clothing. He hadn't recalled the skirts being that short! She raced down the stairs and opened the door "Nice car"
she sat down and buckled up, then looked at him "What?"
Sure she was 16 but she was still to young in his eyes.
"That's skirt is indecent"
She laughed "I think it's cute*
Sure she would, he drove off,
"So you only have a few more credits to go before you leave"
"Indeed, I should be done within 3 months"
"Oh, that soon" she looked down,
He glanced at her, "Miss me already Miko?"
She looked out the window "I will, when will you leave for college?"
"I will be working with father first, then go"
She looked at him quickly "So your not leaving, leaving?"
"Not right away, but I will not be driving you to school any longer"
"That's ok, I have my trusty bike"
He didn't like the sound of that, her , on a. bike, in that skirt!
His first day was spent processing that fact that she was a woman, in a mini skirt at a school with a bunch of other girls who had been wearing the same skirt this whole time and he had never noticed!
At lunch she was with her friends, laughing at the boy Hojos joke and touching his shoulders and Sesshomaru didn't much care for that and that in itself didn't sit well with him. He also caught glimpse of her at PE playing tennis, in another mini skirt which was brushing up against her thigh as she ran to hit the ball, and yes he did notice all the boys in the stands watching to.
This was hell.
When it was time to head home his jaw was set tight, he hated that damn skirt. "How was your first day!" She asked all to happy,
"Annoying"
Kagome folded the mirror down and applied lip gloss that smelt like bubble gum,
"I do not understand your need of such things"
She smiled "Dont go saying I'm to young"
"You are"
"Sesshomaru most kids my age are already, you know, I mean come on, you know your brother isn't a virgin right"
He narrowed his eyes and took the lip gloss front her,
"Hey give it back!" She reached but he put it in his pocket "I'm not afraid to go in your pocket"
"If your wish to keep all five fingers you will do no such thing"
"What is wrong either you, why are you being a butthead"
"Mature Miko" He drove off,
"Better than calling you a queen"
He slammed on breaks, "Miko, you are on thin ice"
She crossed her arms and pouted and he hated it when she did that shit "That does not work on me woman, and wipe that stuff off your mouth, you have no use for it"
"What do you have against lip gloss!"
"Your lips are fine without it"
"But it makes them soft and it taste good!"
"What is the point of putting it on if your going to just lick it off Miko"
"Your kidding right?"
He blinked at her, 'You need to get a girlfriend" she looked away with a smirk
"We are not talking about my life Miko"
She sighed "it's not for me to taste" she was teasing,
He blinked again,
She looked at him hard "kissing Sesshomaru:, it's for kissing!"
His jaw set tight and she picked up on his mood change, uh oh, went to far.
But he looked ahead and drove,
"I mean I'm not seeing anyone" She thought he would pick up on her teasing.
He said nothing,
"It's not like you haven't had your first kiss" He gripped the wheel,
She looked down and played with her skirt "it's just everyone has someone, but I have no one"
He stopped at her house "You do not need anyone"
"Yeah, guess in a few months I'll be all alone right, better get use to it" she opened the door, slammed it and ran up her steps. She was gone before he could fully get out of the car.
