The pleasure of business
Drabble 3: We meet again
"It's been a long time, hasn't it Mr. Kaiba"
Seto nodded from his desk, as he laced his fingers together in front of his mouth to hide his surprise of her formalness.
She finished her bow and took one of the adjacent seats in the front of the CEO's desk.
He shouldn't be surprise at her formal respect she gave him though; they were not teenagers anymore. He cleared his throat a little; it was obvious by looking at Kagome that she was NOT a teenager any more.
Secretly his eyes flashed back and forth from his computer screen that held the first ever battle city competitors, her photo was just between Mutt Wheeler and Yugi Moto, under the caption (fourth winner).
It was apparent of the time change, since unlike in the picture she was not in skinny jeans but instead a jet black pants suit and sported some umm…rather more matured body parts.
"Do you want to see my resume" her voice interject any more of his thoughts that my have surfaced.
"Yes"
She slid the folder on the desk at his reply. He really didn't need to look at it, He had already read all her info on the file Fujimoto had given to him, but took it all the same.
Kagome fingered the lace of her skirt. He seemed so… different, not at all like he was in their teenage years. She was so used to nothing but insults coming out of his mouth, to see him in such a friendly, well business friendly attitude was so…weird.
He looked mature, different, dare she say hot. But then again looks were only looks; he could still be the cold prick he was as a teenager. Joey was already gonna kill her for just going to the interview, on top of that her maybe-boss already hating her guts could be a problem.
"The KaibaCorp human resources department is very impressed by your achievements."
Kagome focus recalibrated at the sound of his voice.
The resume had been placed a top of many other files, neatly stacked on the CEO'S desk. His full line of vision was on her now.
Switching into her business mode, Kagome flashed a smile. Completely missing Seto motions of moving his hands closer, to hide the red stained on his face.
Their casual business talk reached on for an hour give or take, until there was a silent pause since all subjects had been covered.
In preparation for a job in publicity, Kagome had studied all the areas of the foreplay of business.
Such as, how to separate the zeros to the hero's, how to handle the the ass kissers to the jerk offs (no pun intended) and the perverts to the asexuals. But that was another story, which required six inch heels and a push up bra.
Though she knew none of that could prepare her for Seto Kaiba. But despite that she thought she did well. This interview was like meeting that sandbox bully twenty years later at the class reunion, where they give you a bone crushing hug and all you can think is, GET THE HELL OFF ME. Or even worst! Like in that American movie, you again Tea and Mai hand dragged her to see.
"So tell me how are they"
The woman faced showed slight confusion, titling her head to the cleared his throat, his head down in an effort to avoid the cute/provocative position.
"I was just asking how your… friends are" Seto looked up causally; he was a little mad at himself for blushing like a child. A grown man did not blush, Kaiba's did not blush.
Kagome soft giggle reached his ears, "You know their, your friends too Mr. Kaiba, well maybe not Joey but I am sure Yugi and everybody else is."
What a surprise he was actually interested in hearing about the guys. Wait until Yugi heard, maybe Kaiba had chan-
"It's Seto"
Hearing a laptops snap open, Kagome was abruptly woken out of her thoughts.
"What"
"As my publicist there must be a limit on formalness. But calling me Mr. Kaiba isn't part of it." His sharp eyes locked with her surprised ones.
"Or Kaiba, I believe that is what you where accustomed to calling me in the Past Kagome."
She really didn't know how to respond to that.
"So all that is left is when you will start" The CEO eyes now trained on the computer.
Kagome blinked. Once, twice.
"You mean I got the job!"
So whatcha think it took me a little longer to get into this one but next chapter the whole Yugioh and will be back.
