Chapter Five: Sweets

Sesshomaru was bored and tired and emotionally exhausted.

And it was just really the beginning of the night.

His mother had talked the whole ride to the Golden Eye and Sesshomaru didn't have it in him to deny her the happiness that she was experiencing tonight. Even though all he wanted to tell her was to remain silent.

He did not know why the place was named the name it had because there was nothing golden about it. Everything was decorated in silver and black. The walls were a dark grey marble and floor was the same color. On top of every round oak table was a red vase, filled halfway with marbles with a single flower inside.

All in all it was a nice place to be in. It brought comfort while establishing a sort of business quality.

He would have to see who designed the place. His company could benefit from someone with a mind for decoration.

That just reminded him of Kagome. The encounter with the girl was still fresh on his mind when all he wanted was for it to just go away. It was a little over an hour after he had left work and her scent of strawberries and lemons seemed to stuck in his head.

It had to stop!

Finally noticing that his mother was asking him a question, he tried to focus his attention and nodded his head absently to make it seem like he was listening, but it proved to be an almost fatal mistake. Jade had nearly jumped out of her seat in excitement as her eyes lit up.

"Thank you Sesshomaru! I know you don't really care about what I'm talking about, but it does matter. Thanks for agreeing to stay to test out the desserts. I simply must see what my hairdre..."

Sesshomaru didn't really hear what she was saying as he mentally scolded himself for being trapped into this.

And by his own actions!

He blamed it on the bartender that was working for him in his company. Why could he not erase her from his mind? It should have been easy to shove her to the side, but he was finding it impossible. This was mostly his fathers fault too. The demon had set him up in the worst way and he would find a way to get rid of this ridiculous spell that he had fallen victim too.

His mood lightened considerably as he thought of his plan. He would still have to go and visit his father, but if he would not give him answers then he would simply find them elsewhere.

A male waiter came to the table and asked if they were ready to order.

"Of course we are," Jade spoke up. "We would like to have four yeast and honey rolls brought to the table and I would like to have a sample of all of your desserts. Make sure you bring water too. That is all." Jade spoke up for Sesshomaru and herself, but Sesshomaru didn't mind because he was use to it. For some strange reason, when the two would dine out, she would order for him as if he were a child and he would agree to it.

Sesshomaru realized that he would just indulge her and let her do as she willed. Maybe it was because they did not often see one another because Jade would often traveled abroad.

Now that she was here, they fell into the regular routine...

Out of the corner of his eye, Sesshomaru thought he had seen a head of curls that belonged to a certain bartender. He looked quickly to the side only to see nothing at all.

People were sitting at their tables, conversing with their partners, and waitresses were doing rounds in the overly large room. Everything seemed normal, but then he had caught a faint hint of strawberries and lemon.

His heart seized before it started to pump even faster. He looked everywhere in the room and didn't spot her at all.

She was not there.

He wanted to let a breath out in relief, but deep inside he really did want to see her again. Even if he didn't recognized it yet.

Jade had stopped talking when she scented a small hint of nervousness and anticipation coming from her son. He didn't notice her looking at him when he started to study the room with a growing fascination.

"Sesshomaru. What has caught your attention so fast?"

He stiffened under her gaze and answered her, saying 'nothing', but she was not a fool. Something was wrong and she would have asked him if not for the food that she ordered arriving just at that time. Sesshomaru was momentarily forgotten as her excitement spiked.

Sesshomaru was glad for it. He knew his mother and he knew that she would pry. It would only end badly for the both of them if they ended up arguing. The smell of deserts drew him like a moth to a flame.

He secretly had a deep desire for sweets that would border on the crazy side. It was a weakness that he decided that he didn't need so he limited himself to only so much. Now he was here with his mother and had all the desserts in the world, it seemed like, in front of him. Maybe it wasn't such of a bad thing to be led into this.

His mother took a fork and decided to taste some kind of ice cream pie that had almonds on it. The growl that escaped her mouth made Sesshomaru wan't to taste it too.

He wasn't left behind.

"Well, Sesshomaru! What are you waiting for? Taste a piece." Jade held out the plate to her son and he didn't hesitate to eat a piece.

And it was pure heaven.

The pie crust was hot and buttery on the outside, but cold on the inside. The almonds were like a burst of flavor in his mouth and there were strawberries inside of the ice cream that were warm. Everything wen't down smooth and Sesshomaru found himself addicted.

Nothing could have tasted like this did.

Without hesitation he started to eat the rest, without offering even a little piece to his now smirking mother.

"Still have a sweet tooth Sesshomaru?"

"Hn."

She just laughed before picking up something that looked like a strawberry shortcake. Jade stopped when Sesshomaru growled. It surprised Sesshomaru more than it did herself.

"I'm not going to eat all of it Sesshomaru."

He looked embarrassed. "My apologies mother. I do not know what overcame me."

Jade just smiled, she knew exactly what, and took a bite out of the treat and gave the same reaction she did for the first one. That piqued Sesshomaru's interest again. He reached for it and proceeded to eat it all.

That's how the night was spent. Jade would try something and Sesshomaru would eat the rest if not the whole thing. Jade would talk about her new clothing store and what she plans to do on the future, Sesshomaru would keep eating.

When all of the food was gone, Jade called forth the waiter.

"Excuse me, but could you be so kind as to have your chef that made theses deserts come out."

"I'm sorry Miss, but she has her hands full at the moment. If you wish to meet her, then you will have to wait until the restaurant is closed."

"Can't I just run back there for a quick peek?"

"I'm really sorry, but it's the rules."

...

"We will wait."

Sesshomaru didn't like the sound of that, but didn't do anything to deny her. There was nothing for him to do when he arrived home. There was no point of him going back to work because he had finished all of the work, minus the few papers that the girl had brought him. He made a mental note to check her out when he returned. He would find everything he could.

Then he would find a way to fire her...

Or at least find a way for her to quit. He didn't know if he would be able to take it if he were to see her often. If he could not control his own body around her, her being near was not a good thing.

I know it's short, but I'll be posting another soon anyway so I think It'll be okay.

R&R - Love it - Enjoy it
