Bright Orange Hat

.

Kagome went through the door that Tōga held open for her and came to a shocking stand still. Before she could utter a word, he spoke. "Your sister is to wed and we are to attend- unless, of course, you have issue with this?" He inquired. She vehemently shook her head no and then was overwhelm by guilt. She had done it again; thought the man honor-less. You would think she would have learned her lesson in the woods, but obviously not. Realizing that her mouth was still agape, she snapped it shut and turned to thank him- only to find a smirk spread from ear to ear- oh, his ego knew know bounds!

He watched as she narrowed those beautiful eyes of hers at him; he did so enjoy irking her. Shutting the door, he walked further into the room, explaining to her that this was for their trip and to pick out the items she would need for the wedding. With his approval of course.

Kagome slowly followed, watching him carefully as she made her way toward a hat, which had caught her attention. She made to reach for it, when he flinched. Having seen this, Kagome, with a wicked gleam in her eyes, grabbed it and exclaimed, "I think I like this one!" She promptly stuck the bright orange hat, the size of a turkey platter with a pink ribbon and two long peacock feathers, on her head.

It was Tōga's turn to narrow his eyes in annoyance; it was the most hideous hat he had ever seen. She had to be joking. Yet, there she stood with eyes sparkling, twirling in front of a full-length mirror, ooing and awing. There was no way she was stepping outside with that thing on her head in his presence. Before he could remove the hideous thing, she bounced right up to him, smiling. "Take it off," was his short, cold response.

Now Kagome could honestly admit that it the hat was a hideous looking monstrosity, but she was Kagome and she didn't take kindly to being told what to do. "No- I think I shall keep it," she chirped and turning around- just managing to hide a smirk- made to move only to be jerked to a stop. Kagome look down to see Tōga's alabaster hand gripping her arm. Things had just gotten interesting.
