Sequel to Chapter 1 (SessKag, Resort Owner, Opalescent) and Chapter 37 (SessKag, Researcher, Midnight Blue)

"Haven't seen Sesshoumaru around in a while," Kagura said, loosening her tie.

Kimiko chuckled, swirling the red wine around in her glass. "He seems to be fascinated by something." Her wife slid into the booth next to her, toeing off her shoes as well. They could've met in Kimiko's room, but Kagura had been insistent about them celebrating their anniversary on the actual day, and since it was only half an hour until midnight, meeting in the hotel bar was a quick solution.

Kagura was always dead on her feet after the evening shift anyway, having to deliver multiple carts of luggage from the incoming tour buses.

"Something or someone?" she asked, stifling a groan before leaning her head on Kimiko's shoulder.

"Mostly likely the latter, but he is being very secretive about it." She kissed Kagura's head, then returned to her wine. "He claims to have discovered the joy of swimming, but such a mundane hobby would not have him exiting in such a hurry."

That had Kagura lifting her head. "He's not working overtime? Since when? And Jaken hasn't complained?"

"Oh, he has certainly complained. But my dear son refuses to listen. The hotel is still running efficiently, and Inuyasha enjoys the extra time entertaining the children groups."

"But Sesshoumaru loves leading the children's groups!" Kagura argued, the smirk on Kimiko's face only growing.

"Exactly my point. Therefore, someone exceptional must have caught his attention."

Kagura whistled low, finally grabbing her own glass of wine. "I wanna know the minute you do."

"Of course, darling. But for now—" She clinked their glasses together. "—let us enjoy each other's company."

Kagura's mouth curved up into a seductive smirk. "Don't we always?"
