Kagome laughed, spinning herself around the dance floor.

Heat pressed her from all sides.

'I've had a little bit too much...' She thought to herself, moving to the bar.

Kagome was currently out celebrating her huge promotion from secretary to CEO's assistant. Luckily for her, the previous one had retired and Toga had jumped the chance to hire her.

'Just dance. It'll be okay.' Kagome shrugged off her liquor intake.

She bumped into someone.

"Sorry." He apologized.

"No, it was-" She froze, eyes widening. "Bankotsu?"

"Kagome!"

"Oh my god!" She threw her arms around the male. "I haven't seen you since high school!"

"You're looking well." Bankotsu led her to an out of the way table. "What have you been up to?"

"You remember Inuyasha?" Kagome asked her raven-haired companion. He nodded. "After high school we continued dating, and he asked me to marry him."

"That's great." Bankotsu's wide smile dimmed slightly.

"Oh, I haven't gotten to the good part." Kagome leaned forward, showing more cleavage than necessary. "I found out he was cheating on me, so I broke up with him!"

She threw back her head and laughed.

"So, you're currently single?" Bankotsu grinned, moving closer. Kagome nodded.

"Wanna dance?" He asked, eyes twinkling. Kagome took his outstretched hand and followed him out to the dance floor.

'Where are my keys?' Kagome stored the thought away for later, and moved with Bankotsu.

The two retreated to the bar after nearly an hour of dancing.

"Hey, wanna leave?" Bankotsu asked.

Kagome, by now was not the smartest, and she nodded, following him out.

Bankotsu guided her to his sports car, and both climbed in.

"So, why were you clubbing?" Bankotsu asked. He put his hand on her thigh as he drove.

"Celebrating my new promotion."

"With out your side-kick?" The purple-eyes male was referring to Sango.

"She's busy with Miroku still. They got married."

"Lucky them. Did you go?"

"I was the Maid," Kagome giggled. "of Honour."

Bankotsu's hand rode higher, pushing the edge of Kagome's yellow dress up.

-;-

Kagome woke up the next morning with a horrible headache, and an arm around her waist.

She glanced over the room, staring at the clothing thrown around the room and then letting the feeling of disappointment settle.

"Morning, Kags." Bankotsu shifted behind her, pressing his lips to her shoulder.

Kagome didn't tense at the gesture.

"Morning." She greeted, pulling on a lock of her hair.

"You want breakfast, I assume?" He asked, pulling himself from the bed. Kagome watched as he pulled on a pair of boxers before heading for the kitchen.

She pushed her head into his pillows and frowned, remembering the first time this had happened. Although she wasn't drunk that time.

Kagome had dated Bankotsu before she had dated Inuyasha, and she was a hormonally driven teenager with a hormonally driven, sex-crazing, boyfriend. Bankotsu had taken her virginity.

"Do you want eggs or pancakes with your ginger-ale?" Bankotsu called.

"Eggs, please." Kagome answered, pushing herself from his bed and dressing.

She entered the kitchen several minutes later, and slid onto one of the barstools.

"What's the time?"

"Twelve-forty." Bankotsu answered.

"FUCK! I'm gonna be late for work!"
