Chapter 12 You Belong To Me
Kya leaned on the counter bored to death. Usually they were crazy with costumers but today there were just a few couples scattered throughout the restaurant. Glancing behind to look at the customers in the dining area Kya looked over at the sushi counter where an old couple was eating.
A couple of seats down from the couple was a businessman hunched over the sports page. He had on a plain black suit with a pale blue shirt with a tie to match. His glasses were pushed so far up his face it was a wonder he could see anything at all. So not her type.
Usually she would have her pick of eye candy by now but the one gorgeous guy that had come in today was on the arm of some woman. She had hoped it was just a friend but when he glared at her and tightened his hold on the female Kya had gotten the point. It wasn't like she just threw herself on him. Kya just gave him a couple of looks and brushed against him once. She was just testing the waters but this guy acted like he was actually offended by her attentions, like she wasn't good enough for him or something.
So once they asked for a private room Kya called Hime to wait on the couple. There was no use in wasting her time if there wasn't anything in it for her. With a huff she returned to looking out for potential customers or at least someone to flirt with.
Damn maybe this day wasn't a complete waste after all, Kya thought as she spotted the male coming towards her.
He was feeling a little nostalgic today. It had been years since he had been to this particular place but today he just felt the need to visit. That and the fact that they had the best miso soup around. He was tired. Everything had been going well until last week.
Flashback
He had woken up and felt empty, like something important was missing. The soft snores from the half naked redhead curled up against him didn't help either, instead of soothing him this morning he found it extremely irritating.
Yawning as he rubbed the sleep from his eyes he tried to remember her name. Not that it really mattered but he was not a complete ass. After all he'd used her quite a few times he should at least let her think she was memorable. Who knew, he might have some need of her in the future.
Moving and flipping over on his side he hoped it was enough to jar her awake. His prayers were answered when she rolled over to spoon him, rocking him softly to wake him.
"Wake up sleepy head," the red head drawled in her sexiest voice.
"Hmm," he answered sleepily to give the impression he had just woke up himself. "Hungry." he said hugging his pillow.
"Alright," she answered. "Since you've been such a good boy I'll go get breakfast this time.
He refused to turn over in case she was in the mood for conversation. Listening as she dressed and moved around the small apartment he didn't get up until he heard the door click.
"I'm back," the redhead stated happily a few minutes later, a bag hanging off her arm. Their coffees balanced in her other hand on a tray.
Smiling at her as he reached for the bag he tensed as he looked at the contents. How many times had he told her he didn't like cinnamon bagels? Knowing he was already irritated he thanked her and decided to start with the coffee.
Taking a sip he grimaced. Putting the cup down on the table he got up. Maybe it was just best to quit while he was ahead. Walking toward the redhead he reached out and hugged her.
"You are so good to me. Thanks for breakfast but hey, look I have some errands to run today. Maybe we can catch up in a few days. I'll call you o.k?" he said releasing her.
Looking kind of forlorn she agreed. Giving her a quick kiss he ushered her out of the door. Sighing as he poured the coffee, which apparently she put cinnamon in too, down the drain he felt his irritation growing. What the hell was up with her and the cinnamon?
'She' wouldn't have made that mistake and certainly not ran out for bagels. 'She' would have cooked like a woman should.
End Flashback
That thought was the starting point of his being here today. Maybe it was time to settle down. Have someone there to do his laundry that wouldn't use too much starch. Someone to rub his shoulders the way he liked when he got home.
As he walked up to the restaurant he immediately noticed the brunette. She had been leaning on the counter flipping through some magazine and giving a nice view down the front of her blouse. Kya her name tag said. He smiled and she immediately stood up straight, pushing her chest out a little more than necessary. She was obviously trying to entice him by showing off her goods. Not that he was complaining though. He had come with a mission in mind but there was always room for Jello, right?
"Welcome to Miniami 5, my name is Kya. Would you like a table for one or would you rather sit at the bar?" she asked.
Looking around thinking of how empty the place was he froze, his smile quickly fading. A cute blond had come out of one of the private rooms but just before she closed the shoji screen he got a glimpse of the one he had come in search for. Who the hell was that she was locking lips with?
"I um, just wanted to know if you delivered?" he replied. "Never mind though, I see your sign right there. Have a good day."
"Are you sure you don't want to have a seat and eat in? We have many good specials," Kya said huskily leaning forward a little more to try and reel him back in.
"No thank you," he replied. With a quick glance in the direction of the now shut shoji screen he hastily made his exit. This would call for a different approach than the one he had planned. 'She' couldn't have forgotten about him, 'she' was just filling in her time. She was always there when he came back and this time would be no different. 'She' couldn't resist him.
He would just wait for the time being. Watch and wait for the perfect opportunity to present itself. "Get ready for me Kagome," he said through gritted teeth as he walked down the street fuming. He WOULD get her back, of this there was no doubt. Whatever Inuyasha wanted he got and Kagome was HIS.
