Kagome narrating
What happened in Chapter 2:
"So, Mr. King, how did the date with Ms. Lewis go?" Jaken asked.
Sesshomaru parked his car and got off. "Don't ask" he sneered.
"But Mr. King –"
"I said don't ask Jaken" He then rubbed his forehead and sighed. "Jaken, you may go home now" He ordered.
Jaken followed his boss. "O-okay Mr. King"
Sesshomaru got out of his private garage and walked back to his apartment complex.
When Sesshomaru entered the lobby he pushed the up button on the wall and waited for the elevator. When the elevator reached for the ground floor, he let the passengers go out first and entered the elevator alone.
When the elevator doors closed he pushed the button to his floor, he looked at his reflection on the elevator door and sighed. "Did I lose my touch or…Does she still love me?" He asked himself.
When the elevator stopped at his floor he walked to his apartment and slowly opened the door. He go into his living room and fell on the couch, he didn't want to do any work for the rest of the day because he felt so sad. He looked at Sara's picture and held the frame, when he looked into her eyes he didn't feel a spark.
He placed back on the table face down. "Maybe, we just lost it" He thought. But he hated the feeling that was stuck in his being, and the only way he knows how to resolve such feeling is through drinking. So he stood up and headed to his liquor cabinet. He took out a glass with ice and poured whiskey in it, he took the glass and headed back to the couch.
He drank and sat there for hours, he didn't care if he'll finish the whiskey or not. As long as this feeling disappears he'll keep drinking.
Suddenly he heard someone knocking at his door. "I'm coming" (It's a good thing I'm not drunk yet) He thought. When he opened the door he was greeted by a smiling Kagura.
"Hey, Sesshomaru how's it hanging?" She greeted.
Sesshomaru was too depressed to answer.
"Are you okay?" Kagura asked but didn't get a response. She waved her hand in front of his face and still didn't get a response. "In desperate times like this calls for desperate measures" She told herself, she pinched Sesshomaru's cheeks as hard as she can. When
Sesshomaru felt his cheeks burn he grabbed Kagura's arms. "What you do that for?" He asked.
"Well you were spacing out" Kagura pointed out. "Besides, if I didn't snap you out you could've slept standing up" Kagura joked.
"Oh really?"
"Really, now back to my question…Are you okay?" She asked.
Sesshomaru was stunned when he knew Kagura was concerned. "I'm fine" He lied.
"Liar" Kagura sneered. "You've been drinking" She exclaimed.
"Okay, you caught me red handed" Sesshomaru told her.
"Do you want to talk about it?" Kagura silently said.
Sesshomaru looked at her eyes and knew that she was concerned. "I'm sorry, but I don't want to right now" He gently rubbed his eyes and stared at her again.
"That's okay, I understand. But at least take this" Kagura presented a box in front of him.
"What is it?" Sesshomaru opened the box and saw a piece of chocolate tiramisu in it.
"Yeah, I kinda felt bad when I spoke to you that way this morning. I'm not a very good morning person you see" Kagura shared.
Sesshomaru slid his finger in the cake's icing and popped it in his mouth.
"Don't tell chef about this, if he finds out that I stole a piece he's going to fire me" She pleaded.
"Don't worry, your secret's safe with me" Sesshomaru assured.
"Thanks Sesshomaru, I owe you one"
"Actually you don't" He pointed out.
"But –"
Sesshomaru placed his palm on Kagura's shoulder. "You don't have to Kagura, your cake made my day"
Kagura started blushing; she stared into his eyes and felt like melting. (His eyes, are so…)
They stared at each other for a few seconds, when they realized that they've been staring too long they both jolted.
"Uhh…Thanks again Sesshomaru"
"No problem…Neighbor"
"I better get back" Kagura quickly retreated to her apartment. Leaving Sesshomaru awed.
"What just happened?" He asked himself, he looked at the piece of cake and realized that there was something written on it. He went back to his apartment and placed the box on his coffee table he widened the lid to take a closer look. When he read the writing on the cake he smiled. "You don't have to say sorry Kagura, your cake made my day" (…You made my day) He happily thought.
Chapter 3: Everything Happens By Chance
"Rise and shine people of the world, it's a beautiful Sunday morning. It's already nine o'clock and you're listening to –"
A sleeping Kagura tapped the top of her alarm clock turned the other way. "Thirty more minutes" She groggily said, suddenly she sat up and looked at her radio clock. "Wait a minute, did you say Sunday?" Kagura stood up and checked the calendar. "Oh my God, it is Sunday today!" Kagura quickly ran to the bathroom.
"Damn it I completely forgot that they're coming today" Kagura grabbed her toothbrush and squirted toothpaste all over herself. "Great just, great" Kagura cleaned herself up and continued brushing her teeth. (Calm down Kagura, it's just a simple house warming party with your friends. What could possibly go wrong?)
When Kagura finished she walked to her closet and scanned through her clothing. "Now let's see, since it's just us I'm sure they won't mind if I wear something simple." She took out her black jean shorts and a pink V-neck shirt and wore them; she looked at herself in the mirror and smiled. "At least it's comfortable" She exclaimed.
She went out of her bedroom and headed to her kitchen; she looked at her wall clock and sighed in relief. "I got enough time to prepare" Se rolled up her sleeves and washed her hands. "You can do this Kagura Brooks, a simple house warming party is easy" She boasted.
Sesshomaru was happily sleeping when he heard a loud crash; he quickly stood up and rubbed his eyes. "Where did that sound come from?"
"SHIT!" Sesshomaru heard a loud scream next door.
"Kagura?" He quickly grabbed his silk robe and headed to Kagura's apartment. He knew something bad happened and didn't care if he let himself in. "Kagura are you okay?" Sesshomaru saw Kagura kneeling on the floor.
"Owww" Kagura grabbed the rag that lied on her shoulder and squeezed her bleeding hand.
Sesshomaru quickly tended to her, he crouched down and held her hand. "Let me see" he ordered.
Kagura slowly released her grip from her wound and squinted in pain. "I should've been more careful" She told herself.
"What were you doing anyway?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Well, you see I'm throwing a house warming party today. I know it's a bit late but today was the only free time my friends had." Kagura explained.
Sesshomaru quickly dug into his pocket and grabbed his white handkerchief, he then gently dabbed her wound. "Oww, quit that. It hurts" Kagura sneered.
"You cut yourself pretty badly, your pretty lucky that there were no shards stuck in your palm" Sesshomaru pointed out.
"Sorry, I was carrying too many plates and slipped" Kagura explained.
"It's understandable" Sesshomaru stood up. "Now stay here while I get my first aid kit" He walked back to his apartment and grabbed his first aid kit in his bathroom.
When he returned he opened his first aid kit and grabbed an alcohol bottle, cotton balls, and bandages. "Now this might hurt a bit" He grabbed Kagura's wounded palm and opened the alcohol bottle.
"H-hey wait a minute that –" But it was too late, Sesshomaru started pouring the alcohol on her wound. The stinging pain caused her to squirm.
"Hey hold still" Sesshomaru ordered. "It's the only way I could disinfect your wound properly"
Kagura sucked it up and glared at him. "Fine"
Sesshomaru opened the pack of cotton balls and grabbed some, he then dabbed it on her wound. Sesshomaru looked a Kagura and smiled. "There's no need to be afraid" He teased.
"I-I'm not afraid" Kagura trembled.
"Oh really?" Sesshomaru wrapped her wound with the bandages. "Then why are you shaking?"
"I'm not shaking" Kagura pouted.
"Okay" Sesshomaru stood up and reached out to Kagura. "C'mon let me help you up"
Kagura held on to Sesshomaru's hand and stood up. "Thanks" She looked at he shattered plates and sighed. "Now, what am I going to do?"
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura.
"With a bad hand like this I'm going to need help so that I could finish preparing" Kagura complained.
"I could be of service" Sesshomaru blurted.
Kagura looked at Sesshomaru. "Do you have any cooking experience?" She asked.
"Sure, if you call frying an omelette cooking." Sesshomaru replied.
"Oh, thanks anyway" Kagura sighed. "It's just a good thing there is only one thing left to do"
"And that would be?"
"I need to bake cookies for my friends" She explained.
"I could handle that" Sesshomaru boasted.
"How can you, you said you only know how to fry omelettes" Kagura reminded.
"Don't underestimate me Miss Brooks" Sesshomaru pointed out. "So do you want my help or not?"
"Fine" (Like I have any other choice) Kagura grunted. "But I'll be watching you"
"Don't worry; I won't poison your friends" He assured. "I'll just go back and wash up" He then started walking back to his apartment.
A few minutes later Sesshomaru went back to her apartment all cleaned up. "So what do you want me to do?"
Kagura pointed at her kitchen and grinned. "I want you to make that"
Sesshomaru walked to her kitchen and saw a notebook; he grabbed it and read what it said. "Mother's chocolate chip cookies?"
"Yup, that recipe was originally my grandmother's. She passed in on to my mother then me" Kagura boasted. "Besides, it's the easiest on in my recipe book"
Sesshomaru was about to turn the page when Kagura stopped him. "Hey no peeking there are super secret recipes in there" Kagura warned.
"Why would you give me something so easy?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Just to be safe" Kagura explained.
"You don't think I can do better?"
"It's not that, it's just..." Kagura crossed her arms and thought.
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura and sighed. "I understand"
Kagura placed her hands on her waist. "Okay then, since we understand each other now let's start baking"
Sesshomaru washed his hands and put on an apron, he then headed to the counter when Kagura suddenly stopped him.
"You have to tie your hair" Kagura exclaimed, she handed Sesshomaru a scrunchy. "Wear that, I don't want any of your hair to get in my food"
"Alright" Sesshomaru tied his hair into a pony tail and walked to the counter. He took the notebook and read through it, and after reading the directions for five minutes he took off his watch and started working.
I found this recipe in the net so I wanna thank Pam in for this recipe, thanks Pam!

Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased baking sheets. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until lightly browned.
Sesshomaru placed the mixture in the preheated oven and wiped his forehead.
"You're actually pretty good" Kagura complimented.
"I told you not to underestimate me" Sesshomaru pointed out.
"Okay, okay you win"
"Well, I better go" Sesshomaru headed to the doorway.
"You don't want to taste your own creation?" Kagura asked.
"Nah. besides I'll be in your way" Sesshomaru pointed.
Kagura quickly grabbed his arm. "No, please stay. It's the least I can do" Kagura exclaimed. "Besides, I want you to meet my friends" Kagura smiled.
Sesshomaru couldn't keep his eyes off her smile, but he didn't want to get in her way. "Sorry but I have work to do" He lied.
"You liar" Kagura blurted. "You usually play the piano even before I wake up, and I didn't her any tinkling sounds at six in the morning" Kagura teased.
(She's very observant) Sesshomaru thought. "Fine, you caught me" He sighed.
"Yay, I promise that you won't regret meeting my friends" Kagura assured, suddenly they heard someone knocking on the door. Kagura looked at herself with dismay. "Great I got myself messy" She looked at Sesshomaru and put her palms together. "Sesshomaru could you please see who it is, as you can see I'm not presentable"
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura, she had some blood stains and unknown liquids on her shirt, her forehead was sweaty and her face had traces of dough. "Okay"
"Thanks, I owe you one" Kagura exclaimed. She ran to her room and fixed herself up.
The person outside knocked again, Sesshomaru took in a deep breath and walked to the door. "Coming" He gestured.
He opened the door and saw one of Kagura's friends.
"Hey Kagura are you sick? It seems that your voice is a little…" The man looked up and saw Sesshomaru standing right in front of him. "Low?"
Sesshomaru stared at him.
"H-hey…Aren't you…" He pointed at Sesshomaru and started trembling.
(Oh great, another fan) Sesshomaru regrettably thought.
"Sesshomaru, who's there?" Kagura came out running to see her guest. "Oh, Miroku you're already here" She ran out to give him a hug.
Miroku kept his eye on Sesshomaru and slowly gave Kagura his gift.
"Thanks Miroku what is it?" Kagura quickly opened her gift and smiled. "This toaster is perfect, thank you Miroku" She exclaimed.
But Miroku didn't react; he still couldn't believe that THE Sesshomaru King is standing right in front of him.
"Miroku?" Kagura placed the toaster on the coffee table and sighed. "Here we go again"
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura. "What do you mean?"
"Just watch" Kagura walked to Miroku and held his nose.
A few seconds later Miroku started squirming in place, he forced Kagura's hand off his nose and started panting. "Why'd you do that for?" He complained.
"You were drooling" Kagura pointed out.
"Well it's because you didn't tell me that he was going to be here" He pointed at Sesshomaru.
Sesshomaru looked at Miroku. "Could you please take your finger away from my face?" Sesshomaru ordered.
Miroku lowered his finger and pushed Kagura in her apartment. "Hey, you didn't tell me you knew this guy" He whispered.
"Why should I tell you? You know how you react when you see people like them" Kagura snarled.
"People like what?" Sesshomaru exclaimed.
"Ah, nothing nothing" (This guys has good hearing) Kagura thought.
"Kagura, what happened to your hand?" Miroku held her hand and observed her wound.
"I got cut earlier, luckily someone was here to help me" Kagura looked at Sesshomaru and smiled.
Sesshomaru was mesmerized by her smile again; he couldn't keep his eyes of her genuine smile.
"I told you to stop looking at me that way" Kagura exclaimed.
Sesshomaru was caught again; he turned the other way and walked towards the kitchen.
"Well, he did a pretty good job" Miroku complimented.
"He was the only person at that time" Kagura blushed.
Miroku stared at her face and grinned. "Kagura's blushing" He teased.
"No I'm not" She whispered.
Miroku pinched her cheeks. "Don't lie to me, I know you. We've been friends since high school" He pointed out.
"Okay, okay let go" Miroku lets go of Kagura's cheeks, Kagura rubbed her swollen cheeks in pain. "I thought Kagome would be with you"
"I thought so too, but she said she had to do things something last minute" He explained.
"You think she forgot that she had to be here today?"
"Knowing her….Yeah" Miroku joked.
The two friends looked at each other and laughed.
"That Kagome" Kagura wiped her tears.
Miroku walked to the table and was amazed at the food. "Wow Kagura, you've outdone yourself this time"
"Nah, it's nothing special" Kagura exclaimed.
Miroku dipped his finger into one of her dishes; he then placed his finger in his mouth. "I think its pretty goo–"
Kagura punched his face. "Don't do that, you'll contaminate the food"
Miroku fell on the floor and apologized. "Sorry, sorry"
"You know you could've started with the finger food" Sesshomaru explained.
Miroku jolted when he suddenly heard his voice. "Don't scare me like that damn it"
Sesshomaru ignored Miroku and placed his finished creation on the table.
"Hey, I'm talking to you" Miroku sneered.
Kagura tried to calm Miroku down. "Hey, come on stop that Miroku. I don't want my friends fighting over a petty matter"
Suddenly they heard someone knocking at the door.
"I'll get it" Kagura gestured. "It might be Kagome"
When Kagura opened the door she flashed her biggest smile. "Hey Kagome how are you?"
"Who's Kagome?" Inuyasha asked.
When Kagura noticed that it wasn't Kagome she turned beet red. "Oh, s-sorry I thought you were someone else" (I'm such a dumbass, I should've looked at the peephole first) She thought.
"Anyway have you seen my brother? He isn't in his apartment" He pointed out.
"Oh, I see. Please wait a moment" She gently closed the door and ran back to the dining area. "Sesshomaru, I think your brother is looking for you"
"You mean…" Miroku was stunned.
"Oh no Miroku, he's here for Sesshomaru not you" Kagura teased.
"What does he want now?" Sesshomaru sighed; he walked towards the door and opened it.
"Hey bro how's it hanging" Inuyasha joyfully greeted him.
"You need something from me right?" Sesshomaru asked.
"Yup"
"Very well" Sesshomaru looked at Kagura. "I'm sorry but, I have to leave" He explained.
"I understand, but if you got time you come back you hear?"
Sesshomaru let out a thin smile. "Thank you" He then let himself out of her apartment.
"Hmmm, Kagura is blushing again" Miroku teased.
"Quit it Miroku" She then looked at the wall clock. "What's taking Kagome so long?"
"Don't worry about her she'll be fine" Miroku assured, he then took a piece of cookie from the table and popped it on his mouth. "Kagura these cookies are awesome"
"Don't thank me, thank Sesshomaru for baking them" Kagura pointed out.
"He made these? But you never shared any of your recipes with us" Miroku mentioned.
"Well I couldn't work with a wounded hand" She then looked at her bandaged wound. "And Sesshomaru was kind enough to help me"
"Oh, I see" Miroku grabbed another piece and sat on the couch.
"By the way, do you have any news about Sango?" Kagura asked.
"As a matter of fact I –" Miroku was interrupted when they heard someone knocking on the door.
"Coming" Kagura gestured, she ran to the door and looked through the peephole to be sure. When she looked through the peephole she saw a disgruntled Kagome panting, she quickly opened the door and helped her friend in.
When Miroku saw his friend he quickly stood up and helped her to the couch. "Kagome, what happened to you?"
Kagome sat on the couch and handed over her gift. "*pant* *pant* Here you go"
Kagura took the back and set it aside. "Thank you Kagome, now, tell me what happened?"
"Before I tell you, I need….A glass of water and something to eat" Kagome demanded.
"We're on it" Her two friends stood up and ran to the kitchen, Miroku handed her an ice cold glass of water and Kagura gave her a plate full of spaghetti she prepared.
Kagome quickly finished her spaghetti and chugged down the glass of water. "Thanks guys"
"Now, tell us what happened" Miroku beseeched
Kagome took in a deep breath. "Okay here it goes…" Kagome calmly positioned herself in front of her friends.
"I woke up this morning in a very good mood and –"
"Wait, will this take long? Coz if it is I' getting something to eat" Miroku interrupted, he quickly stood up and grabbed a plate.
Kagome glared at him.
"Miroku" Kagura sneered.
A few seconds later Miroku returned with a plateful of food.
"Are you going to finish all of that?" Kagura pointed out.
"Don't worry Kagura I'm going to share" He then looked at Kagome and smiled. "Please…Continue"
Kagome took in another deep breath to calm herself down. "Please no one interrupt"
Her two friends nodded and started eating.
"So as I was saying…"
Kagome's story…
I woke up this morning in a very good mood, the sun was out the birds were chirping I thought nothing bad is going to happen today and then suddenly…
Kagome looked at the calendar and panicked. "It's Sunday, TODAY?" she looked at the wall clock and screamed. "It's already ten o'clock?" she tried to get out of her bedroom but kept stumbling over her piled up clothing.
"Kagome, are you okay?" Her mother screamed from downstairs.
"Don't worry mom I'm okay" Kagome stood up and patted her face. "I forgot to buy her a gift, I'm such a stupid friend" She then topped and thought. "Ah, I know what to get her"
She ran next to her bed and grabbed her bag; she searched her bag and found her wallet. When she opened her wallet she sighed in relief. (It's a good thing I got money)
"Kagome come down here and eat breakfast, you don't want to be late to Kagura's" Her mom mentioned.
"Okay mom I'm coming" (I swear when I have enough money I'm going to move out of this house) She thought.
After I ate my breakfast and got cleaned up I quickly ran to the mall, it's a good thing the mall near our house opens early, when I entered the mall I was surprised to see a lot of people. So anyway I went into a store and got your gift, there was still time to spare until…
Kagome took in a deep breath and raised her hand. "TAXI" She screamed. But the taxi ignored her and past her by. "Hey, I'm over here you jerk" She looked at her side and saw another taxi coming her way.
"TAXI" she screamed again, but the taxi missed her again. (What's wrong with Taxi's I mean it's their job to stop for us customers, right?) She impatiently thought.
She sees another one coming by and screamed louder. "TAXI!" This time the vehicle stopped in front of her. (Yes, third times the charm)
But as she opened the door she felt someone push her to the aside. "Hey shit head I was here first" She pointed out.
"Sorry, but I need this more than you" The man blew a kiss for her and ran off with the cab.
Kagome raised her fist in rage. "Hey, come back here!" She got herself up and heard screaming from the other side of the road.
"That guy ran into my car" A man explained to the police man. "He shoved his Volvo into my Prius" He exclaimed.
"Don't worry sir, we'll take care of it" The police man assured.
The enraged civilian grabbed the police man's collar. "Oh, you'd better don't you know how much this thing is worth?"
Kagome crossed her arms. (That's why he ran with my cab) She evilly thought.
Back in Kagura's apartment…
"And after that incident it took me at least fifty minutes to find a cab. And the one I took smelled like rotten eggs" Kagura ranted. "Sorry for being late Kagura"
Kagura sat next to her and gave Kagome a big comforting hug. "Aww it's understandable you don't need to apologize"
Miroku licked his fingers and looked at Kagome. "That guy was rude; did you remember what he looked like?" Miroku asked.
"Yeah Kagome, if we do see him we'll give him a piece of our mind" Kagura assured.
"Thanks you guys" Kagome thought long and hard to remember that man. "Well…he was wearing a red business suit and gray slacks"
"What about facial features?" Miroku suggested.
"Well…He had big yellow eyes and –" Kagome was interrupted when they heard someone knocking at the door.
"Hold that thought" Kagura stood up and opened the door. "Oh Sesshomaru you're back"
"I won't be long; I think I left my watch in your kitchen while I was baking" He explained.
"Not a problem, please come in" Kagura opened the door and let Sesshomaru in.
"Hey that's…" Kagome pointed at the door.
"Yeah I know I know, Sesshomaru King" Miroku boasted.
"Not him" Kagome stood up and ran to the door. "Open the door wider Kagura" She warned.
Kagura followed her instruction and opened it wider.
"Why you!" Kagome sped up and kicked Inuyasha right on the face.
The impact sent Inuyasha to the ground; Kagome sat on top if him and kept kicking his face. "Why you disrespectful jerk, I'm going to kill"
"Kagome get off him" Kagura tried to get Kagome off of Inuyasha but she kept squirming. "Miroku help me"
Miroku stood up and ran, but before he got through the door he felt a stomach cramp coming. "Ughh, I shouldn't have eaten that much" He regretted.
(That guy is always useless at times like these) "Sesshomaru help" Kagura cried.
Sesshomaru ran to her and looked at the scene. "What happened?"
"I don't know, just help me get her off" Kagura ordered.
Sesshomaru held Kagome's right side while Kagura held the left.
"One…Two..Three" Sesshomaru signalled and got Kagome off of Inuyasha.
The two fell on the floor while Kagome fell on top of them. "Let go of me" She ordered.
"What the hell is wrong with you bitch?" Inuyasha stood up holding his bleeding nose.
Kagome stood up and marched right up to his face. "My problem, don't you mean your problem?" Kagura screamed.
The two started bickering leaving Sesshomaru and Kagura on the floor.
Sesshomaru stood up and looked at Kagura. "Need a hand?"
Kagura stared at Sesshomaru's inviting hand and grabbed it, Sesshomaru pulled her back up to her feet. She dusted her knees and looked at him. "Thank you"
The two looked at the bickering pair and sighed.
"What do you mean that I have a problem?" Inuyasha scowled at Kagome.
"You pushed me off the cab" Kagome reminded.
"Hey I didn't –" Inuyasha stopped and thought, he then gave Kagome an uneasy smile. "Oh so you were that weak girl" Inuyasha said.
"Who are you calling weak?" Kagome grabbed his legs and pulled him to the ground.
"Hey what are you doing?" Inuyasha asked.
Kagome spread his legs and sneered. "You'll find out" She then stomped on his family jewels repeatedly.
Inuyasha cried out in pain. "Arghhhhhh HELP ME" He pleaded.
Kagura kept squinting each time Kagome stomped on Inuyasha's jewels. (Man that's got to hurt) "Miroku?" She hollered.
Miroku held on the couch and slowly stood up. "What is it?" He asked.
"I think we don't need to give that guy a piece of our mind, I think Kagome gave him enough" She explained, she then looked at Sesshomaru and was wondering why he wasn't helping. "Aren't you going to…"
Sesshomaru looked at her. "A little later, finally someone knocked some sense in that boy" He sighed.
Kagome kept stomping on Inuyasha's jewels. "You inconsiderate, loud mouth, useless piece of junk" Kagome continued ranting.
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry" Inuyasha begged, suddenly he started to black out.
"Well that's my cue" Sesshomaru walked next to Kagome and held her shoulder. "I think that's enough" He said.
Kagome lets go of Inuyasha's legs and sneered. "Next time be more respectful"
Inuyasha held his jewels in pain. "Okay I got it, I got it" He cried.
Sesshomaru crouched down and looked at him. "Can you at least stand up?" he asked.
"I-I think so" Inuyasha trembled.
"You girls go back inside, I'll take care of this one" He suggested.
Kagome snorted and marched back to Kagura's apartment.
"You sure? I can help" Kagura pointed out.
Sesshomaru looked at her and smiled. "No, it's okay. He's my brother after all"
Kagura was struck by his smile. (This was the first time I've seen him smile)
Sesshomaru helped his brother up and headed to the elevator, when the elevator arrived he guided his brother in and pressed the ground floor. When he looked up he still found Kagura outside. "Kagura, I'm fine" He then smiled at her and waved goodbye.
As the elevator doors closed Kagura felt her heart beating faster, she held her chest and entered her apartment. (Why is it beating so fast?) She thought for a little while and snapped. "It must've been the fight, that's it" She whispered to herself.
Miroku suddenly appeared at her side. "Hmmm, what's this Kagura is blushing again" He pointed out.
"Shut up Miroku" She sneered.
"By the way Miroku, when is Sango coming back?" Kagome asked.
"Oh yeah" Miroku grabbed Kagura's arm and dragged her to the couch. "Sango said she'll be in town in five months" He joyfully announced.
"That's quite near" Kagome pointed out.
Miroku dug into his pocket and took out a picture of Sango; he then rubbed his cheek against it. "Oh, Sango I can't wait to see you again" He then started kissing the picture.
"I just hope she still isn't mad" Kagome giggled and looked at Kagura. "Don't you think so too?"
"…Huh…Oh yeah" Kagura silently replied.
"Kagura what's wrong?" Kagome asked.
"Oh nothing its nothing" Kagura quickly replied, she returned her attention to her friends. But her mind was focused on a different matter. (He looks better when he smiles that way she thought)
After helping his brother out of the apartment complex Sesshomaru drove him to the police station to straighten things out with his car.
"Why did you crash into that guy's car" Sesshomaru asked.
"I didn't see him, that's all" Inuyasha blurted.
Sesshomaru didn't react and returned his attention to the road. A few minutes later they arrived in the police station, it took them a few minutes to get there. But it took them hours to go through the process.
Sesshomaru kept staring at his watch as Inuyasha and the civilian fought over who would pay for the wreckage. When the verdict was decided the brothers left the police station, they were instantly greeted by the curious paparazzi.
"Over here over here, let me get a picture of the both of you" A paparazzo hollered.
"Inuyasha, could you tell us what happened earlier this morning?" A paparazzo asked.
Inuyasha looked at the paparazzo and sighed. "Guys, not now I don't feel like answering"
The brothers quickly returned to the car and drove off.
"Damn it I hate this much attention" Inuyasha complained. "Oh, why did father have to give me his company?" He groaned.
"Because, you were his favorite" Sesshomaru explained.
"Oh yeah…Right" Inuyasha stared at the window and grunted. "Why did I have to pay for the wreckage? It wasn't my fault"
Sesshomaru didn't say a word and continued driving.
"Sesshomaru drop me here"
Sesshomaru stopped the car at the corner.
"I've caused you so much trouble…" Inuyasha sighed. "Damn that girl is going to give me nightmares" He shivered; he then opened the door and stepped out. "Well anyway thanks" He waved at Sesshomaru and walked home.
When Sesshomaru returned to his apartment it was around seven o'clock at night, he took out his keys and unlocked his apartment door, he looked at Kagura's door and heard nothing. "I guess the party's over"
Suddenly Kagura's door creaked open. "Sesshomaru?"
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura. "Yes?"
"About today, I…I can't…" (Urgh this will be harder than I thought)
"It's okay Kagura, whatever happened today. Didn't happen" Sesshomaru suggested.
"Right…Anyway I've got something for you" Kagura quickly went back into her apartment and retrieved Sesshomaru's handkerchief and a piece of cookie.
"I tried to save you some, but I guess my friends liked your cookies" Kagura complimented.
Sesshomaru took the cookies from Kagura and popped it in his mouth; he then opened the door to his apartment entered.
"Hey, what about your handkerchief? If you think it's still soiled it's not, I just cleaned it a while ago and…"
Sesshomaru looked at Kagura. "Keep it" He said.
"What?"
"I said keep it, it might come in handy" Sesshomaru entered his apartment and locked the door.
Kagura silently returned to her apartment and closed the door; she looked at the handkerchief that was resting on her wounded hand and placed it near her chest. "That guy…" She started blushing. "Kagura what are you doing? You don't have a chance with this guy. Besides….He's taken"
She suddenly remembered that she hasn't opened Kagome's gift yet, so she grabbed the bag and opened it. "Aww thanks Kagome, these throw pillows are cute"
She walked to the living room and lied down on her couch, the party was over and she was alone. She took another look at the handkerchief and smiled. "Whatever happened didn't happen huh?"
She turned to the other side and giggled. "Yeah right" She whispered.
