Chapter 3- You Win Some, I Win Them All

"Can someone please turn out the lights? It's seriously too bright in here."

"Sango, my dear, if I could turn off the sun believe me I would. How much did we drink last night?"

"Too much, as usual. We really shouldn't be left to our own devices. Any idea what happened to Kagome?"

"None, although before I became completely belligerent I read that she left with Sesshomaru."

"That can't be good thing."

"Come on, let's get something for our headaches and go see her."

Well, well last night was interesting, but not as interesting as the aftermath will hold. Will we be seeing a Takashi brother show down? And shame on you Kikyo, aren't you taking things a little too far? I have to say no and that you should continue so I have more for all of you to enjoy. But watch out things might end up blowing up in your face and the faces of all of the elite.

"I can't believe you did that. You hate all beings but yourself. Why did you give her a ride? Is pissing me off your only goal in life?"

Sesshomaru shrugged his shoulders. "She needed a ride, I gave her one. Not everything is about you little brother and if you hadn't been such an idiot she wouldn't have needed a ride."

"Me? This is all your fault. You got me all pissed off on purpose."

"No, you let me get you all pissed off. How can you ever expect to walk in father's footsteps if you can't keep a level head?"

"I can keep a level head. Stay away from Kagome. You and I both know how she feels about you and there's no need for you to mess with her because of me."

"Who says it would be because of you? Maybe I too am interested in her."

"Feh, stay away I'm not going to warn you again."

"Warn me? That would imply that you are in some way superior to me and I should be afraid, neither of those things are the truth."

"If you keep messing with her you'll see. She's a good person she doesn't deserve to be toyed with."

"She's a human. You shouldn't care so much about them."

"Do you live in the feudal ages? We all are equal."

"In your eyes."

"In our father's eyes."

"His one flaw."

"Being caring and loving is not a flaw. The sooner you realize that the better off you'll be. I'm not going to stand here and argue with you about this just stay away from her."

Kagome stood in the warm shower, letting the water flow over her and her mind wonder. To say things hadn't gone the way she thought last night would be an understatement.

She wasn't sure who she should be mad at. Kikyo, for purposefully tricking Inuyasha, Inuyasha for engaging in it, Sesshomaru for being a jerk, or herself for falling into any of it. She really wished she would have just spent the night babysitting Miroku and Sango, or maybe dancing with Bankotsu. After last night, he'd probably never want to hang out with her again.

When did she start letting herself get dragged into these things? Of course, she was used to there being rumors about her, but none of them had ever been true and now she was actually giving people something to talk about.

She rinsed off her hair and body and wrapped herself in her robe. One thing was for sure she needed to get things back on track. She couldn't do that being mad at anyone, so she'd go to Inuyasha and let him know she wasn't mad about what happened. That would be step one at least.

She went to her adjoining walk in closet and picked out some casual jeans and a plain white t-shirt and quickly got dressed. She walked back into her room to find a very, very, hung over looking Miroku and Sango.

"Hey guys, glad to see you're ok."

Sango shrugged. "That depends on what your definition of 'ok' is. What happened to you last night?"

Kagome sat down in her computer chair and sighed. "Well, Sesshomaru cut in on my dance with Inuyasha to make him angry, which of course worked. Inuyasha got so drunk I don't think he could even think straight and ended up in bed with Kikyo, who changed your number in my phone to hers so that I'd walk in on them. And I ended up taking the longest ride of my life home with Sesshomaru. So basically, it sucked."

"And you let that bitch Kikyo just get away with that!? Come on Kagome you shouldn't have let her walk away like that."

"Sango, if I stoop to her level she'll never leave me alone."

"Kagome, while I don't agree with Sango's pension for violence, I do agree that you shouldn't just let her walk all over you. She isn't going to stop if she thinks you'll let her get away with it."

Kagome began to rub her temples. "I don't know what to do about her. Either way I lose."

"No you don't. We'll figure something out for her. What about Inuyasha, what are you going to do about him?"

"I am going to tell him that I'm not upset about what happened. I am his friend not his girlfriend and he and Kikyo have a lot of history together. I understand why he'd still be drawn to her. He's still in love with her and that is ok."

"I wish I had your moral high ground sometimes. Actually, no I like the violence."

"Sango, that's not really going to help her."

Sango shrugged. "This isn't my forte. However, don't be so quick to think Inuyasha still feels that way about Kikyo. I'm not saying he's completely over her, but he has feelings for you too, Kagome and you'll have to deal with that sooner or later."

Where are all my loves on this lovely Saturday? Fighting hangovers and fighting each other? Or maybe just plain hiding out. Well, you can't hide from me. I'm getting tons of emails wanting Sesshomaru's crush to be revealed and you know I can't say no to you. So, I will give her twenty-four hours to fess up to him on her own, or I'll tell all of you, personally that's what I'm voting for.

Taking a deep breath, Kagome rings the doorbell. She can't believe that in her nervousness she forgot to bring her phone so she could have just called him and let him know she was on his doorstep.

The door swings open and Sesshomaru opens the door with his eyebrow raised. "Yes?"

"I want to talk to Inuyasha. Is he here?"

Sesshomaru shrugs. "Perhaps, and here I thought you'd be here to talk to me."

"Why would I be here to see you?"

Sesshomaru smirks. "I take it you haven't been online recently?"

"Obviously, I don't have my phone or I wouldn't be standing here talking to you."

"Is it such a bother to you to talk to me, Kagome? Because I don't believe that it is."

Inuyasha came behind Sesshomaru. "Kagome, what are you doing here?"

Kagome pushed her way passed Sesshomaru shooting him a glare. "I came to talk to you. In private."

Inuyasha nodded and grabbed her wrist, pulling her up the stairs behind him. They went down a long hallway and when they reached the end Inuyasha pushed her into the last room on the right, shutting the door behind him.

"Sorry, youkai hearing. So, what's up? I didn't think you'd want to talk after what happened."

Kagome shrugged. "I just came to tell you that I get it and I'm sorry I freaked out. I let the stress of everything going on blow up on you and I shouldn't have. So, um, sorry."

"Wait, you're apologizing to me? What's wrong with you? I should be the one apologizing not you."

"There's nothing wrong with me. You have nothing to apologize for. You and Kikyo have history and we're friends."

Inuyasha cupped her cheek with his hand. "Kikyo and I do have history, but you and I are not just friends anymore. I just haven't figured it all out yet."

Kagome took his hand off his cheek. "I'm not a love triangle girl, Inu. Until you figure it out we're friends. See you at school."

Kagome left the room and rushed down the hall. Sesshomaru was standing by the front door with a frown on his beautiful face, something Kagome was certain she had never seen before and under different circumstances might have questioned it, but instead she went out the front door without a word.

Which Takashi did our dear Kagome drop by to visit? Inquiring minds want to know! Our bets are on Inu. It seems the party couldn't pull these two apart. Sorry, Kikyo better luck next time, seems Inuyasha might be out of your reach before long. And the clock is ticking for Sesshomaru's love to reveal themselves. Tic toc tic toc.

Kikyo threw her phone at the wall and collapsed on her bed. She was furious that her plan seemed to make no difference and she knew GG was right. If Kagome won over Inuyasha there was a possibility she wouldn't win him back.

She wanted to scream at the top of her lungs things weren't going her way and she didn't like that. She went over and picked her phone up from the floor and dialed a number that was becoming familiar to her.

"We need to talk. I think I know who we can use." She hung up the phone with a smirk.

Kagome felt a chill go through her. She read it over and over hoping beyond hope that'd she look back and see she'd just imagined it, but after four times of doing this she knew it was true. Someone knew about her feelings for Sesshomaru and not just any someone. Gossip girl had somehow found out and by the remarks Sesshomaru had been making lately she had a feeling he might know about it too.

Things were going from bad to worse and she wasn't sure what to do about it. She knew GG would make good on her word if she didn't tell Sesshomaru, but she wasn't sure how much Sesshomaru knew. And what would happen if everyone found out? Gossip girl had been waiting for so long for something to hold over Kagome's head and she finally had it.

"Last night was fun. I told you you worry way too much."

"Do I Kouga? I think I worry just the right amount."

"I don't understand why you're so worried Ayame. It's not going to happen again"

"I never thought it wouldn't the first time, but it did. I don't ever want us to drink and lose control again like that."

Kouga pulled Ayame close to him and rested his head on her head. "I will never let that happen again. I promise."

"What if, you know, she tells? People will think so badly of me."

"I don't and I never will. That's all that matters. I love you, A."

She leaned up and kissed him. "I love you too."

"So, let me get this right, you basically told her you want both of them?"

Inuyasha dropped his face in his hands. "That's not what I was trying to say to her at all. Do you think that's what she thought?"

Miroku shrugged. "Maybe, but knowing Kagome, probably not. She sees the good in everyone she probably just knows you're confused, but that doesn't mean she wants to be a part of that. Kikyo already won't leave her alone and GG constantly attacks her. If I was you, I'd leave her alone until you figured things out she has enough going on."

"I'll try. But I'm not going to let my brother get close to her he has a sick need to torture me and using her seems his new favorite way. I have to make sure he doesn't hurt her."

"Don't worry I'll give Sango the heads up. Three pairs of eyes and ears is better than one."

"You're serious? It's you?"

Kagome blushed. "Yes, it's me. Now can you please help me? What do I do?"

Sango looked at her in disbelief. "Sorry, it's just a little hard to believe is all. You're so good and he's so...not."

"Everyone has good in them. Back to the problem."

"Okay, well let's think about it. If you tell him it's just him and me that knows."

"He could tell everyone or use it against me or worse use it to bother Inuyasha."

"True, but if you don't and GG tells everyone then Kikyo knows, that's worse. There's no telling what'd she do with that kind of information."

"I was afraid you'd say that."

"In the end it's your choice. Maybe it's good this happened you would have never told him otherwise, who knows maybe he likes you too."

"Ha, I doubt Sesshomaru likes anyone but himself. But you're right. At the present time I'd rather face him than Kikyo."

"You want me to come with you?"

"No, I'd rather go alone it'd be a little weird with an audience."

"Call me later with details."

"Will do."

Sesshomaru sat in his father's study looking out of the window. The study that would soon belong to him. It was all he had ever thought about, ever would think about, or so he thought.

He never imagined he would be concerned with some human girl. But there she was creeping up in his mind at every turn. He started with just trying to teach Inuyasha a lesson, after all he'd be helping run his father's empire and mistakes couldn't be made. Now he didn't really know. When he gave her a ride home he secretly studied her the entire time and now he knew what Inuyasha had meant when he'd told Miroku he never could find a thing wrong with her. He hadn't either, besides the fact she was human.

When he saw the post from GG he had thought it would be fun to watch her squirm, but after he conversation he didn't think so anymore. He couldn't believe but he thought he felt even a little sorry for her. His brother was trying to drag her into even more things than she was already in. Well, he'd fix that and be done with it. If he fixed this one thing he'd have no further reason to be bothered with her.

Kagome paced back and forth nervously. All she'd seemed to be lately is a ball of nerves. She was ready to get rid of them and be done with all the drama as of late.

She made herself sit down on the park bench. Everything would be okay after this. Well, after the Inuyasha situation was figured out.

"Kagome."

Kagome looked up and got an eyeful of Sesshomaru, his eyebrow raised as it always seemed to be where she was concerned.

"Don't you know not to sneak up on people? You know you're a real baka sometimes."

"I do not sneak. You were merely not paying attention."

"I was paying attention, you were sneaking."

"Why did you ask me here?"

Kagome blushed and looked down at her feet. "As if you don't know?"

"Perhaps, but I have a feeling that won't be good enough for let's say inquiring minds."

Kagome nodded. She knew he meant gossip girl and since she seemed to know everything it was likely she'd know if she didn't go through with this. So, she wouldn't do things with her head down. She had been raised better than that. She got back to her feet and looked Sesshomaru straight in the eye.

"Sesshomaru, I like you. I've liked since we were kids. I know you act all cold and careless, but I don't believe it for a second." She reached up and pulled his lips down to hers. She felt tingles all through her body and almost expected fireworks to be going off because that's what it felt like. She let him go and took a step back. "That'll give gossip girl something to talk about."

She walked away, a stunned Sesshomaru left watching her receding figure.

Well, well it seems our crush revealed herself and with style too! But since I can't stand to disappoint you I got the confession on video! Enjoy my little loves.
