Inuyasha lifted the last box into place as Sango and Kagome stepped back to admire the room. It was neat, clean, and organized. “That didn't take too long!” She said glancing down at her wristwatch. She blinked in surprise. “2:00am?!” The girl fell back on the couch just noticing how exhausted she was. “I'll never wake up in the morning to make my job at the restaurant!” Sango sat down beside her stretching as she yawned.

 

“I thought you said you were going to drop that job because of the skimpy uniform,” Sango said leaning forward on her elbows that she had place don her knees. “Two jobs are too much!”

 

“I know but…I really need the money…” Kagome bit her lip in thought. She closed her eyes leaning back on the couch. “I need money for college tuition.”

 

Inuyasha looked down at his feet listening to her dilemma, “I'm sure Sango could get Miroku to pay as much as that job did, plus what this one already pays.” Kagome's eyes shot open.

 

“I couldn't…he gave me too much already. Plus what he is going to pay me for cleaning,” she said feeling guilty for even excepting so much money in the first place.

 

Sango smirked, “Of course he will. From this day forward you job at Wacdonald's has officially ended!” She stood up and left the room, closing the door behind her leaving Inuyasha and Kagome alone in the room.

 

“Keh,” the hanyou said leaving as well. He headed began turning shutting the club down and making the few remaining drunken bums leave. They only grumbled and walked out the door. “Yeah, yeah,” Inuyasha said gritting his teeth as he turned out the lights.

Kagome walked out the door closing it securely behind her. She found her way in the darkness to the room Sango had taken her to earlier and fumbled for her coat hanging on the rack. She put it on, pulling her gloves form her pockets and placing them on her hands. She could see the warm glow around the light bulbs that had recently been turned off as she walked outside the club.

 

With her hands slammed into her pockets for warmth she began walking down the sidewalk toward her apartment. Every car that passed by she eyed suspiciously. `Stop kidding yourself,' she thought, `no one is going to kidnap you or anything like that.' Trying to assure herself didn't work; she shivered when a group of people walked bye, and their cigarettes' ends glowing. The girl froze when a red car pulled up beside her and rolled down its driver's window.

 

“What are you doing,” came a familiar voice. The car door opened revealing the hanyou, the moonlight illuminating his silver hair. “It's dangerous to walk alone at night in Tokyo. She only shook her head and blushed; inside she was happy someone she just meant cared enough about her to stop at 2:30 in the morning because he worried for her safety.

 

“I walk every where. It's no problem I'm perfectly safe,” she told him assuredly; even though she knew herself it was a lie. The hanyou saw right through it, she reeked of the scent of fear.

 

“Look wench, just let me give you a ride. They're some sick minded people out there.”

 

“I'm fine!” Kagome said raising her voice, slightly offended by his insult.

 

“Just get in the car! I'm not going to hurt you or anything!” he retorted fighting back his anger and only slightly succeeding.

 

“I'm fine ok? Just let me walk nothing will happen I promise. Inuyasha, still standing by his open car door slammed it shut and walked up to her. “What are you doing?” she questioned suspiciously.

 

“Walking you home,” he answered waiting for to begin walking.

 

“Why?”

 

“Keh, so I can be sure you're safe…” Kagome smiled and began walking no longer scared but somehow nervous because she was walking so close beside the hanyou.

 

“Inuyasha?”

 

“Yes?” he said looking at her and waiting for her to continue.

 

“Thank you,” she muttered her cheeks taking on a red tint. “It means a lot to me.” Both of them turned to look in the opposite direction, both victims to slight blushing. `Why am I blushing?' they both thought turning to glance at each other at the exact moment only to catch the other's glance and turn their heads away quickly. Inuyasha sniffed at the air, Kikyou's smell hung faintly in the air but he shook it away without a second thought.

Kikyou looked down at her watch. She took note of the time, slightly drunk. She climbed into her small car and shut the door. Within a second she had it started and driving slowly down the road trying hard to ignore her dizziness as she swerved. She did see one thing as she drove down the street away form a local bar. She saw the Inuyasha, her Inuyasha, walking with that sleazy wench Kagome. `How dare he…' she thought stepping on the gas and zooming by before he could see her.

“You really didn't have to walk me into the building and to my apartment,” he said turning the handle as she removed her keys, “but thank you once again. How can I repay you?”

 

Inuyasha smirked looking down at her. Her scent was so sweet he could smell it for days without becoming tired of it. “I'll find some way for you to repay me I'm sure.” Kagome stepped into her apartment. It was large, consisting of only one bedroom a kitchen, living room, and bath.

 

“Can I get you anything before you leave?” She asked standing in the doorway, silently longing for her bed. Her watch now read 3:00am. He shook his head and waved turning away form the door.

 

“Goodnight Kagome.”

 

“Goodnight and thank you Inuyasha.” She closed the door softly and walked into her room. `I'll shower in the morning,' she thought after change into her nightgown and falling face forward on her bed, her head landing on a pillow. `He's so handsome…' she thought falling into a long awaited sleep.
