~Melodic Memory
Chapter 21
The train ride was quicker then she thought it would be considering she
spent most of the time on her laptop writing furiously, only occasionally
looking out the window. She finally reached her destination to the very
large clothing company.
The giant industrial red lights shone brightly in the afternoon sky high
above her reading in beautiful Kanji; "Shikon INC." She hadn't been to her
office in the building in months. But she appreciated the fact that her boss
let her work from home. It was the only reason she took the job in the first
place. While grandpa wasn't getting any better she needed to be near her
mother. But now that his death had come and gone and Souta was now in
his last year of high school. Kagome wasn't really needed anymore, at
least not for helping with the family. She figured with the new things going
on in her life as of recently that perhaps other things were due to change
also, possibly re-locating. Of course she couldn't think of moving away
from Sesshoumaru, especially after everything that had happened. She
laughed aloud. She couldn't reason why she was thinking such things.
"It's not like he's asked me to be his one and only or something." She
thought with a bewildered smile upon her face as she entered the building.
She crossed over to the receptionist office.
"Hello, how may I help you?"
"Yes I need my badge to get into my office, it's held in the bottom locker of
your drawer, here's the key." Kagome instructed.
The receptionist's eyes widened. "I have been wondering what this locker
was?"
"Hah, yes, it is my badge and that is all, no buried treasure, I actually work
from home in Tokyo. My name is Kagome by the way, I am the web
designer for Shikon." She giggled.
"Although I'm sure the awareness of the contents now are not as exciting
as what you were assuming." She laughed.
The lady smiled as she passed the badge to her. "Nice to meet you
Kagome, my name is Minami.
"Our imagination is usually always better then the real thing." She added.
Kagome paused at this. She stared off into space for a moment.
"Perhaps....and sometimes perhaps not"
Kagome walked off with a wave to the receptionist.
As she stepped out of the elevator towards her bosses office she laughed
again aloud thinking how carefree she felt. Was this Sesshoumaru's
doing? One could only...imagine.
"Kagome?!"
Kagome turned towards the voice of her brightly smiling boss. He was
standing outside of his office waiting for her.
"Mr. Totosai."
"I thought that was your lovely laugh outside my office!"
Kagome smiled sweetly and bowed to him.
"Please come in, your assistant Mr. Ookami Kouga is waiting inside."
Kagome walked into the lavish and very spacious office of the president of
the company, large sized windows surrounded the entire room, revealing a
spectacular view of the city. She stepped towards the large low table that
Totosai always had for simple meetings, something more casual and
comfortable than the typical conference room tables. He was always
telling Kagome how he perferred to sit on the floor and speak as the
ancients did then in a stuffy conference room.
Already standing and looking quite debonair was a very tall man. His
brown hair and blue eyes accented his tan and toned skin well. He wore
his long hair in a low pony tail, his mid-length hair shined in the rooms
shadows. He wore a black business suit, plain yet very powerful looking
for a man of his stature. Kagome couldn't help but think he looked quite
uncomfortable in the attire. He seemed to her, to look better in a pair of
jeans and a loose shirt. She wasn't one for imagining what most men
looked like in other clothes, but she honestly thought that this man just
didn't fit the picture of what she was seeing now. She had to admit that he
was very handsome. But all was ruined the moment he finally became very
aware of her staring at him. The ego of this man shot right through her like
a lightening rod. He smiled deviously at her and bowed slightly to her as
Mr. Totosai introduced the two. As soon as Kagome sat across from him,
she had already felt him undress her about 20 times!
"This guy is something else!" She thought.
"It's very nice to meet you Kagome. Totosai has told me so much about
you, and I have seen most of your work. I am impressed to say the least."
He praised.
His voice was rough and low. Something most women might find very
dominant and sexy in a male. But Kagome couldn't quite keep from
comparing his voice to the silky baritone of one Sesshoumaru Taisho.
She cursed herself inwardly for thinking of him here and at present. She
felt the sudden heat rise to a crimson blush on her cheeks. She was never
going to get him out of her mind.
Kouga noticed her flush face and winked at her flirtaciously. Kagome was
caught off guard with his assumptions.
"Does he think I'm blushing because of him?" She thought, she mentally
smacked herself.
After an hour of strange glances, fake smiles and many uncomfortable
silences. Her boss felt well enough to end the meeting and attend to other
matters. Kagome rose first. Kouga quickly followed. Totosai said his
goodbyes and walked them to his office door.
Kouga informed her on the way out of that they would be taking the train
together instead of driving since it was so much quicker. Kagome nodded
in agreement (only to shy away from the inevitable) it didn't matter what
way, she wasn't leaving this place with him.
"Well Kagome, shall we reconvene in your office to speak of the matter of
taking you home?" He asked.
Kagome cringed inwardly. She was quickly deciding on the best way to let
this guy know she would not be going anywhere with him. At least, not by
herself.
"Uh, yes I guess so." Was all she got out as she was whisked away in her
office's direction by a very arrogant and excited Kouga.
Kouga stood behind Kagome as she opened her office door. The hairs on
the back of her neck were standing in attention at the possibility of what he
could be looking at as she was slightly bent over to open the door. She
quickly recovered and flicked her light switch and sat behind her desk.
She breathed in the fresh smell of paper and plastic. The room had
obviously just been open quite possibly the day before to be cleaned and
tidied for her arrival. She smiled thinking how sweet her boss was to do
such silly things for her, even placing fresh flowers in a very ornate vase
beside her window. Her previous award winning front page pictures were
hanging neatly along the wall along with a very beautiful set of Japanese
geisha dolls and a wall cabinet filled with tiny little American Tea Pots.
Seeing the tea pots in the case flooded her mind with thoughts of the most
recent tea pot she had acquired. She smiled at the thought of it sitting in
that window sill.
"Nice office!" Kouga offered as he casually flopped into her chair beside
her desk.
Kagome frowned. She needed to get rid of this guy and fast. She was
hoping for a wonderful partner but instead she was blessed by the gods
with a very reminiscent Inuyasha/Miroku mix. Possibly even more arrogant
then them. Sometimes arrogance could be tolerated, even found sexy. But
Kouga's was annoying. And Kagome was getting on her last nerve merely
by the way he was looking at her every chance he got when he thought she
wasn't looking.
"So Kagome, my place or yours?"
"Excuse me?!"
"I meant the project of course, where did you want to work on it,
considering we both live in Tokyo."
"Our respective homes. I can email you with any changes or ideas, and the
same goes for yourself."
"I am saddened you don't want to get to know each other better, don't you
think two heads are better then one, at least since we are working
together."
"I think that two people can work together and not have to be in the same
room."
"Well, maybe after our train ride I can help persuade you in my direction."
He winked.
Kagome was ready to vomit. Her eyes rolled and she threw her hands up.
"Are you always like this?"
"Only when I want to be."
"Can I request that you behave around me please?"
"Kagome, I am hurt. What are you accusing me of?"
"I...(sigh), just stop being so flirtacious, really, I am not interested in such
things."
"Really, but you are a woman with needs aren't you?"
"Yes, I am. A woman who is in desperate need for an assistant to MIND
HIS OWN BUSINESS!"
Kouga smiled. He knew he was getting to her, and her anger only made
her sexier to him.
"And what if I made it my business to become part of that business."
"Are you serious? Wait, lemme guess, desperately?" She smirked, that'll
get him.
Kouga smiled at her stab, but was quick to feint.
"Desperately desiring a date with you."
"Are you....are you asking me out?"
"Are you saying yes?"
"NO!"
"Like I said, you'll change your mind soon enough."
Kagome breathed in and out slowly and loudly.
"Look, lets just get this project started and be on our way alright?"
"Sure." He complied.
An hour later and Kagome was ready to leave. She wanted to make the last
train before late evening so that she could get home quickly. She wanted
away from this lecherous and very annoying man as soon as possible. He
had settled down but still continued to drop useless hints of desiring a
date with her. She was stunned to say the least at his belief in himself.
She could turn him down a million times and he would still come back for
more. What was a girl to do. She finally turned her laptop off and closed it.
Kouga had been busy writing information from her notes and his own. She
watched him work quietly for several minutes. In those minutes she was
able to bare his company. He seemed absorbed in whatever he was writing
down and was completely immersed within the keyboard. She was happy
to know that Kouga could actually work. She had the small faith that at
least, home, alone in his own house that he would be a great assistant.
She was the only obstacle for him. Her plan would work excellent for her
and him.
Kouga closed his laptop and checked his blackberry.
"Well the last train is soon, we better leave here and make it, not much
seating at this time, we may have to share a booth in the eating cart at this
rate." He said as he glanced at his watch.
Kagome smiled nervously. The moment she had been waiting for. Was
she getting cold feet? She had to tell Kouga she wasn't going with him,
but how did she make it to the train station before him? That was when an
idea came to her.
"Kouga! I have to stop by the IS department and pick up my new laptop.
Would you be willing to...(Kagome walked over to him), get us a seating
area for the both of us?" She asked sweetly.
Kouga's eyes widened. "Sure, anything you want." He smirked. Possible
assumptions running mad through his head. He began to pull his
blackberry out to make the call.
Kagome placed her hand upon the phone, carelessly feathering his hand
as she did.
"No, no what I mean is, can you go get it now, so that we have it for sure
and I will meet you there?"
She batted her lashes slightly and opened her eyes, slightly pouting her
lips in a fierce attempt to manipulate him into doing this.
His face fell for a second until he watched her playful look, he dropped his
blackberry into his pocket and launched his jacket over his shoulder.
"Alright, I'll see you when you get there. Remember I have your number, so
I will call you when I get to the train station."
"Okay." She answered as she smiled sweetly. Pretending to make a fake
phone call on her cell phone to the IS department.
Kouga smiled and walked out of the room and into the waiting elevators.
She watched him as the doors closed. She breathed a heavy sigh of relief.
Kagome quickly turned her cell phone off and walked back to her desk.
About an hour later she checked her phone to listen to her messages.
Kouga had called 5 times, wondering where she was. She laughed as each
call rose to a new level of impatience and frustration. It was evident in his
very words. At the last message he had finally come to the realization that
he had been stood up, but what shocked Kagome was that in the same
breath he could acknowledge that there would be another time and place
for him to make his attempt again. She quivered at the thought.
"He just doesn't get it does he?" She laughed.
It was now mid evening and the lights of the city shown brightly through
her window. Kagome walked out of her office and locked the door. As she
exited the elevators she gave her badge back to the receptionist who was
just about to leave for the evening.
"Have a pleasant evening Miss Kagome."
As Kagome was about to walk away she realized that she had no way home
now. The last train to Tokyo had taken her lecherous assistant away from
her. The only possible way now was a nights stay in a hotel and then home
tomorrow morning. She was upset and angry for having to make such
unexpected plans, but measures had to be taken, lest she be stuck with
Kouga for hours on a train and more foolish attempts on her personal life.
"Thank you Minami, by chance can you call me a cab?"
"Most certainly, one moment please."
Minami placed the call and hung up the phone.
"The cab will be here soon Miss Kagome."
"Thank you."
"Good evening."
Minami bowed and made her way to the elevators to the lower car port
area. Kagome watched her leave. She was all alone in the dark lobby of
the Shikon building. She swiftly twirled around towards the front of the
doors. She walked outside into the humid yet slightly breezy air. Her eyes
adjusted to the darkness around her.
That was when something caught her eye. Something familiar, something
she knew couldn't possibly be true but was.
Sesshoumaru.
He was leaning casually against his sleek black BMW. Hands and arms
crossed over his chest in a very distinctive stance. The ripples and thick
shapes of his muscular forearms shown through the thin tightly worn shirt
adorning his gorgeous upper body. His legs were also criss crossed at the
bottom, he wore sexy black slacks with dark back suede loafers that
looked so preppy yet incredibly sexy on him. His long silver hair was tied
back in low laying ponytail against his back, reckless strands framed his
chiseled face. Sesshoumaru's amber eyes pierced through the darkness
into her her own eyes. Setting her feet in a frozen step. He looked like a
god leaning against his car. Smiling. At her. She could have squeeled
with joy at seeing him there. But for maturities sake (and possible her own
sanity). She merely smiled lovingly at him and quickly walked over to him
with a skip in her step.
"Sesshoumaru... what are you..."
Her words were stopped with a gentle finger against her lips. His chest
pressed firmly against her breasts. She could feel his soft clothes caress
her own. The rustle of keys and shuffle of fabric on fabric was the only
sounds invading this magical dream Kagome had sworn she was creating
in her own head.
"I never could take No for an answer." He spoke.
Kagome smiled with a blush of appreciation. Tonight he was real, this
wasn't her imagination. This was for real. He was really here, creating the
perfect image of her knight in shining armor. He couldn't have picked a
better time to do such a thing. Kagome slowly wrapped her arms around
his neck and pressed her lips against his own. Her mouth met the most
invitational meeting. His kisses grew steady and lengthy, deeper and
deeper he made love to her mouth. Desiring every drop of her sweet
nectar. Kagome was swirling with happiness and something akin to
drunkeness.
She pulled away to look into his eyes. She reached up to caress his face.
"Thank you ever so much."
He merely smiled. Not truly understanding the depth of how thankful and
appreciative she really was for him at that moment.
"Our imagination is usually always better then the real thing..."
"Perhaps... not."
0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 000000
I have come to realize that I am starting to take quotes from earlier parts of
my chapters and placing them in the endings to make it fit, possibly
creating meaning for each chapter. Hmmm, I dunno. Well I have to say
thank you for all you faithful reviewers out there, you make this Sintar all
warm and fuzzy inside! I can't tell you what happiness it brings me that
you enjoy reading this. I love to tell other people who much I enjoy reading
there stories, so it makes me happy to give back! So anyways, I know it's
shocking Ive been writing so much lately, and it's great! Writing makes me
happy, so I shall until I become dead brain once again, (it always happens,
but ends eventually).
Quick notes:
Sesshoumarumylover- No I am not going anywhere, I love writing, I just
took a break you could say. I won't leave until I'm finished. And who
knows when that will be. :)
CultKagome and Sesshoumaru- Yes I love that place. Actually I stayed in a
place just like it and so thats what gave me the idea. Lemme know if you
would like to see pictures ^.^ Perhaps the reality is better then the image I
have painted.
MiszyAnime- Well Kagome will always have feelings for Inuyasha, I wanted
to convey an idea of her possibly looking upset over not being told in
person the apology. You see, I guess like the Anime itself, Kagome is
always stunned by Inuyasha's ways, even though she should be use to the
way he is and not so surprised by the things he does. Call it blind faith.
Navikun- I hope this makes you happy, so glad your "hooked"!
And to RinsEternalSoul and KougasAngel! Thank you ever so much for all
the encouraging words and nice comments! Two of my favorite authors, I
can't tell you how much it pleases me to know you read my stuff!
And well you know what to do now ^.-

standing outside of his office waiting for her.
"Mr. Totosai."
"I thought that was your lovely laugh outside my office!"
Kagome smiled sweetly and bowed to him.
"Please come in, your assistant Mr. Ookami Kouga is waiting inside."

Kouga smiled. He knew he was getting to her, and her anger only made

"And what if I made it my business to become part of that business."
"Are you serious? Wait, lemme guess, desperately?" She smirked, that'll
get him.
Kouga smiled at her stab, but was quick to feint.
"Desperately desiring a date with you."
"Are you....are you asking me out?"
"Are you saying yes?"
"NO!"
"Like I said, you'll change your mind soon enough."
Kagome breathed in and out slowly and loudly.
"Look, lets just get this project started and be on our way alright?"
"Sure." He complied.

"Thank you Minami, by chance can you call me a cab?"

"The cab will be here soon Miss Kagome."
"Thank you."
"Good evening."
Minami bowed and made her way to the elevators to the lower car port
area. Kagome watched her leave. She was all alone in the dark lobby of
the Shikon building. She swiftly twirled around towards the front of the
doors. She walked outside into the humid yet slightly breezy air. Her eyes
adjusted to the darkness around her.
That was when something caught her eye. Something familiar, something
she knew couldn't possibly be true but was.
Sesshoumaru.
He was leaning casually against his sleek black BMW. Hands and arms
crossed over his chest in a very distinctive stance. The ripples and thick
shapes of his muscular forearms shown through the thin tightly worn shirt
adorning his gorgeous upper body. His legs were also criss crossed at the
bottom, he wore sexy black slacks with dark back suede loafers that
looked so preppy yet incredibly sexy on him. His long silver hair was tied
back in low laying ponytail against his back, reckless strands framed his
chiseled face. Sesshoumaru's amber eyes pierced through the darkness
into her her own eyes. Setting her feet in a frozen step. He looked like a
god leaning against his car. Smiling. At her. She could have squeeled
with joy at seeing him there. But for maturities sake (and possible her own
sanity). She merely smiled lovingly at him and quickly walked over to him
with a skip in her step.
"Sesshoumaru... what are you..."
Her words were stopped with a gentle finger against her lips. His chest
pressed firmly against her breasts. She could feel his soft clothes caress
her own. The rustle of keys and shuffle of fabric on fabric was the only
sounds invading this magical dream Kagome had sworn she was creating
in her own head.
"I never could take No for an answer." He spoke.
Kagome smiled with a blush of appreciation. Tonight he was real, this
wasn't her imagination. This was for real. He was really here, creating the
perfect image of her knight in shining armor. He couldn't have picked a
better time to do such a thing. Kagome slowly wrapped her arms around
his neck and pressed her lips against his own. Her mouth met the most
invitational meeting. His kisses grew steady and lengthy, deeper and
deeper he made love to her mouth. Desiring every drop of her sweet
nectar. Kagome was swirling with happiness and something akin to
drunkeness.
She pulled away to look into his eyes. She reached up to caress his face.
"Thank you ever so much."
He merely smiled. Not truly understanding the depth of how thankful and
appreciative she really was for him at that moment.
"Our imagination is usually always better then the real thing..."
"Perhaps... not."

I have come to realize that I am starting to take quotes from earlier parts of
my chapters and placing them in the endings to make it fit, possibly
creating meaning for each chapter. Hmmm, I dunno. Well I have to say
thank you for all you faithful reviewers out there, you make this Sintar all
warm and fuzzy inside! I can't tell you what happiness it brings me that
you enjoy reading this. I love to tell other people who much I enjoy reading
there stories, so it makes me happy to give back! So anyways, I know it's
shocking Ive been writing so much lately, and it's great! Writing makes me
happy, so I shall until I become dead brain once again, (it always happens,
but ends eventually).
Quick notes:
Sesshoumarumylover- No I am not going anywhere, I love writing, I just
took a break you could say. I won't leave until I'm finished. And who
knows when that will be. :)
CultKagome and Sesshoumaru- Yes I love that place. Actually I stayed in a
place just like it and so thats what gave me the idea. Lemme know if you
would like to see pictures ^.^ Perhaps the reality is better then the image I
have painted.
MiszyAnime- Well Kagome will always have feelings for Inuyasha, I wanted
to convey an idea of her possibly looking upset over not being told in
person the apology. You see, I guess like the Anime itself, Kagome is
always stunned by Inuyasha's ways, even though she should be use to the
way he is and not so surprised by the things he does. Call it blind faith.
Navikun- I hope this makes you happy, so glad your "hooked"!
And to RinsEternalSoul and KougasAngel! Thank you ever so much for all
the encouraging words and nice comments! Two of my favorite authors, I
can't tell you how much it pleases me to know you read my stuff!
And well you know what to do now ^.-
