Summary: Buyo shows Inuyasha how it's done.
Amateur, Buyo groused as he watched the half dog demon try to gain his mistress's attention. He had to admit, though, that when Kagome began working on her schooling there was little in the way of a diversion that would work. Of course he was most proficient at distracting her, but that came from cunning and patience—both of which the hanyou seemed to lack entirely.
Watching with some glee as Kagome began pelting Inuyasha angrily with objects sitting around her work space, Buyo made his move. He would show the dog how it was done and—if the hanyou was smart—Inuyasha would watch and learn.
Jumping up onto her desk, he gave a plaintive meow followed by a soft, rumbling purr. His mistress was quick to notice him and gave him an indulging smile and a run of her fingers down his back. Ahh, that feels so good.
Now to obtain more of that!
Slowly, so as not to draw too much awareness to his actions, Buyo moved forward, purring all the way. When he was in range of his target and the miko thoroughly engrossed in loving on him, he laid down on top of her school work, rolling onto his back and kneading at the air as her fingers continued to affectionately stroke him.
Victory is mine, hanyou, Buyo meowed to the dog as Kagome smiled down at him, school work completely forgotten.
"Show-off," he heard the hanyou reply before Inuyasha stormed out of the room.
