MissTuffcy: Well the time I said I was going to post this didn't work out. At least I go the word goal, right? Or got near to it? Anyway I was planning on making this longer but I made a promise that I'd post whenever I stopped typing. This so happened to be the spot I stopped.

Summary: "You don't understand….I loved her….a lot….And he took that from me….so I've decided to take something he loves away from him to show him how I felt! It's nothing personal against you," A sigh "I had a feeling that not cutting ties with that idiot would cost me dearly…I should have listened to Jaken…."

"If you can't take the cold, stay out of my heart."

Tohara walked up the stairs with a tray of food that the cook prepared before running out to do the monthly shopping. She had established long ago that men (even butlers) couldn't follow a simple shopping list so she decided she would do the grocery shopping herself.

Tohara stopped in front of Sesshomaru's door and knocked twice and waited patiently for a few moments before knocking again. "Come in," the voice was gruff and husky, not like Sesshomaru's at all.

Tohara opened the door with a frown. He stood in the doorway and his eyes narrowed as he took in the sight of that blue haired man – Kai – from yesterday - - obviously naked - - under the covers with a slumbering Sesshomaru – who was also obviously naked – laying half-way on his chest. Kai was running his fingers through Sesshomaru's hair. He looked up at Tohara then his eyes trailed to the tray of food he was holding.

"Hey, butler-man," Kai mumbled. Tohara scowled at him.

"It's Tohara," Tohara growled. Kai rolled his eyes with a sigh. He looked down briefly when Sesshomaru shifted and mumbled something. He returned his gaze to Tohara and then the plate.

"That enough for us both?"

"No, it's for Sesshomaru only,"

"Aw…not going to treat me to breakfast?"

"No," Tohara sat the tray down on the table next to the door and wheeled it to the foot of the bed. "Don't touch it," Tohara growled. Kai raised an eyebrow and watched the man walk stiffly out of the room.

"Well someone has a pole lodged up their ass," Kai mumbled. He grunted when something hit him in the stomach. He looked down at Sesshomaru to see the other male glaring at him tiredly. "Good morning to you too, baby," Sesshomaru rolled his eyes as Kai kissed him on the cheek.

"Be nicer," Sesshomaru scolded. Kai smirked.

"I thought you liked when I was naughty," Kai purred. Sesshomaru's face flushed pink and he slipped away from Kai.

"Irregardless…" And Sesshomaru left it as that as he slipped his – previously discarded – silk robe on, tying the sash around his waist as he walked towards his bathroom. Kai slipped from the bed as well and followed after Sesshomaru – completely void of clothing.

"Well-" He was cut off as the bathroom door closed in his face. "Can I at least join you in the shower?" He tried the door handle but it was locked. "Sessh-" He heard the shower turn on. "I'll take that as a no," Kai grumbled. He turned his attention to the food on the table at the foot of the bed. "Hello, delicious," He grumbled as he walked towards it.


"So, whaddaya usually do on Sundays?" Kai asked. Sesshomaru glanced back at Kai as they started down the stairs.

"You sound like Inuyasha right now," Sesshomaru grumbled. Kai scowled as they got to the bottom of the stairs.

"Well," Kai huffed. "I happen to have a vast vocabulary with prodigious language skills that farther surpasses that of the usual grunts and groans of that cave-man you call a sibling!" Sesshomaru chuckled.

"Someone has had their nose in the dictionary," Sesshomaru grinned. Kai huffed has he pulled Sesshomaru to him. He smirked down at Sesshomaru.

"Unlike your idiotic brother, I don't have the need to attempt to read a dictionary! Can your brother even read?" Kai took on a puzzled expression which made Sesshomaru chuckle again.

"I hope you're not talking about me," Sesshomaru and Kai's attention was drawn to Inuyasha who stood at the end of the hall with a not so pleased frown on his face.

"Ah, Inuyasha. What an unpleasant surprise," Kai drawled as he slowly allowed Sesshomaru to step away from him a little.

"What the hell are you doing out of prison? More importantly, why the hell are you here harassing my brother?"

"Are you sure you're not the one harassing him?" Kai asked with a raised eyebrow. Kai turned his attention to Sesshomaru – who was shaking his head. "Now…what did you say you did on Sundays?"

"If you must know, I usually catch up on my reading on Sundays or meet with one of my clients…but today I guess we can hang out,"

"Ohhh…look at you using phrases like hang out so casually as if you did so every day," Kai smirked and Sesshomaru rolled his eyes.

"Wait, you're hanging out with jail-bird over here?" Inuyasha growled.

"You think throwing around the fact I was in jail is going to do something?" Kai asked with a raised eyebrow.

"Yes, Inuyasha. Why do you care who I hang out with?" Sesshomaru asked with a sigh. He massaged his temples as he felt a headache coming along.

"I don't think it's a good idea to even associate yourself with this guy!"

"Oh my gosh….he used a big word and actually used it correctly," Kai gasped. Sesshomaru chuckled. "Tell me, Inuyasha, did that hurt?" Inuyasha growled.

"If I suddenly introduced your face to my fist, would that hurt?" Inuyasha growled.

"So it…does hurt is that what you're trying to insinuate?" Kai asked with a puzzled frown. Sesshomaru shook his head. Inuyasha growled as he pulled up the sleeve of his shirt.

"Do you want me to kick your ass now or later? You open your fat ass mouth again and I'll introduce you into a world of pain!" Kai stepped forward with a sly smirk.

"Is that a threat I hear?" Kai asked sweetly. Sesshomaru frowned as Inuyasha also took a step forward.

"No," Inuyasha hissed. "It was a fucking promise!"

"Guys," Sesshomaru spoke up.

"Now I want you to get whatever shit you came with and get the hell out of this house," Inuyasha growled as he took another step forward. "And don't come near Sesshomaru again!"

"Inuyasha," Sesshomaru snapped with a glare.

"Who are you to tell me what to do? Quite frankly, I don't give a damn about your meaningless and empty threats. I fuck and see who I want and if that happens to be Sesshomaru, you're just shit out of luck,"

"Kai!" Sesshomaru growled as he turned his glare to the other male.

"I should fucking gorge your eyes out and feed it to you! Don't you talk about Sessh like that!"

"I can fucking talk about him anyway I want, you little shit!"

"Cut it out, you two!" Sesshomaru hissed.

"No you can't!" Inuyasha growled. The two were now staring directly into each other's eyes with only a foot separating them.

"I most certainly can!" Kai growled.

"Sesshomaru," Sesshomaru turned his attention from the two growling males to Tohara. Tohara frowned as he glanced at the two briefly before turning his attention back to Sesshomaru. "Someone named Naraku is on the phone for you,"

"Oh, okay," Sesshomaru walked passed Tohara.

"Wait, did you just say Naraku?" Inuyasha asked suddenly as he turned his attention to Tohara. Kai frowned.

"Who is Naraku?"

"Fucking guy who's out to kill me, that's who!" Inuyasha exclaimed. Kai smirked.

"I like this guy already," Kai snickered. Inuyasha glared at him and thus started another screaming match between the two. Tohara sighed and walked away.


Sesshomaru picked up the phone. "Hello, this is Sesshomaru speaking," Sesshomaru said. There was silence on the other side. "Hello? Naraku? Are you there?" Sesshomaru frowned. "I'm hanging up now-"

"Don't!" Sesshomaru's eyebrows shot up.

"Naraku, is there something wrong? Did you already c-"

"I…I have decided on what I should do…"

"Tell me," Sesshomaru mumbled.

"I thought about it long and hard…I'm going to move away,"

"I'm glad to hear you're trying to move on, Naraku," Sesshomaru smiled. "Do you have a place in mind already?"

"I'm going to move to Europe with my brother,"

"Oh! That's nice to hear. Have any plans on what you're going to do?"

"Not…yet…"

"Don't rush it, Naraku. You'll figure out what to do once you get there,"

"I want to see you again… I mean – uh… before I go….just once – please…I just need to see you again before I go,"

Sesshomaru bit his lip. "Uhm….when were you two leaving?"

"In a week…may I see you again, Sesshomaru?"

"Well…I'm not sure if I can…I've been busy these past couple of weeks and then this dinner-"

"Please…at least just once,"

Sesshomaru paused as he heard a distant crash. He frowned and turned his head towards the doorway.

"What was that? Are you okay?"

"I'm fine…just my brother and…" Sesshomaru paused. "A friend fighting,"

"Oh…"

"Tell you what," Sesshomaru began as he heard another crash. "Are you doing anything now? Maybe we can go out for some tea or coffee or something," Sesshomaru's eye twitched as he heard another crash.

"Okay! That would be great!"

"Excellent! I'll meet you at the Jade Café!" Sesshomaru nodded satisfied.

"Okay! See you then, Sesshomaru,"

"Yeah, See you then Naraku," Sesshomaru hung up the phone and growled when he heard another crash. He stormed out of the room.


"What in the seven hells are you two doing?" Sesshomaru shouted. The two were currently on the floor, rolling around, griping each other's neck. They stopped and looked up at the angry white haired male.

"He started it!" They both yelled at the same time. Sesshomaru angrily placed his hands on his hips.

"I don't care which one of you started it, I'm going to end it! You both better start cleaning this mess up!" Sesshomaru growled. He started for the door.

"Wait!" Sesshomaru stopped and turned to watch the two scramble to their feet.

"Where are you going?" Kai asked.

"I'm going out for coffee with a friend," Sesshomaru said before turning.

"You're not talking about Naraku, right?"

"And if I am?" Sesshomaru growled.

"You can't go out with him! The guy is-"

"I'm done listening to you," Sesshomaru growled as he walked out the door –

"But Sessh he's a-!" – and slammed it behind him. "He's a fucking lunatic!" Inuyasha snarled as he ran for the door. He was stopped by the grip on his hair.

"Where the fuck do you think you're going?"

"I gotta get Sessh back! The guy he's-"

"No! You're going to fucking help clean up the mess you fucking helped make!" Kai growled. Inuyasha glared at him.

"Mamoru!" Inuyasha shouted.

"What?" Tohara growled irritably. He stopped and looked at the mess around the two males glaring at each other. "I'm not cleaning up your mess. Sesshomaru specifically-"

"Yeah, yeah, whatever, shut up," Inuyasha said in a rush as he yanked his hair from Kai. "You need to go with Sessh and keep an eye on him!"

"Why would I-"

"The guy he went with is-"

"Inuyasha," Tohara said with a sigh. Inuyasha growled as the butler promptly turned and walked away.

"Fuck you too, ya bastard!"

"Stuffy sure showed you," Kai snickered. Inuyasha glared at him. "Now help me clean this mess before my baby gets back home,"

"His name is Sesshomaru not baby!" Inuyasha exclaimed.

"I can call him whatever the fuck I want!" Kai hissed. Inuyasha gave a battle cry and tackled Kai to the ground.


Jade Café

Sesshomaru sighed as he walked into the café. He instantly spotted Naraku in one of the booth seats towards the back. He made his way over to him and slid in the seat. "Hey," Naraku's gaze snapped up to Sesshomaru. His expression seemed to lighten up.

"Hey,"

"How have you been?" Sesshomaru asked.

"Surprisingly well," Naraku mumbled. Sesshomaru smiled.

"That's good to hear," Sesshomaru jumped slightly as he felt his pocket vibrate. He pulled his phone from his pocket and looked at who was calling and sighed. He looked at Naraku with an apologetic smile.

"Excuse me, Naraku. It's my idiotic headache," Sesshomaru said. Naraku nodded and Sesshomaru answered the phone. "You and Kai had better had cleaned up the mess and you're just reporting on the finished job,"

"Sessh! You gotta come home right now!"

"What did you break?" Sesshomaru groaned and placed his head in his hand.

"Nothing! I just don't want you around that lunatic," Sesshomaru's eyes narrowed.

"Inuyasha," Sesshomaru started tersely. Naraku frowned. "For the last time-"

"Look, Sessh! I'm just trying to warn you that-"

"We'll continue this conversation later – maybe," Sesshomaru said as he clicked the phone closed.

"Who was that?" Naraku asked.

"My brother,"

"So…Inuyasha is your brother?" Naraku asked.

"Why? Do you know him?" Sesshomaru asked. "If you do, I'm sorry,"

"Well…I don't know him –know him…." Naraku started. "He's….an acquaintance…"

"I'm still really sorry," Sesshomaru sighed. "He's a headache…a true pain in the ass to society…but mainly me," Sesshomaru grumbled. Naraku nodded.

"Brothers are like that, I guess,"

"Tell me about it," Sesshomaru sighed. "He's the very feign of my being," Sesshomaru shook his head. Naraku's eyes narrowed.

"Really? How?"

"Well….this one time…"


"Because everyone should tell their psychopathic, murderous patient why they hate their brother so much so he can go on a psychopathic, psychotic rage on said individual – that he also hates – in order to win your trust and love – which he is vying for."

This is totally a quote from later on. I thought I'd give you a little teaser since I didn't update when I said I would and had the set goal of words I said I would.
