CHAPTER 15: GOOD DAY GONE WRONG
The girls found the food court easily, with all its weaving customers. They were quite surprised to see it so busy. Opting for a salad, they ordered tarioki(sp?) orange chicken salads with strawberry dressing. The chatted happily while they ate.
"This place is fabulous!" Sango exclaimed, "and we are here!"
Kagome laughed, "Not to mention we get to come two more times."
"You know what?" Sango smiled, " I think we should go shopping after this and get a nice outfit. We can then convince the boys for a date."
"Not a bad idea my friend," Kagome pointed her fork at Sango and grinned. They then went on to decide a dress shop. It was sometime around 2:30 when they finished lunch.
Giving compliments to the friendly chef, they headed down yet another hallway, with an elevator at the end. They didn't pay attention when it dinged. Sango looked up at a sign.
"Why don't we go to the sauna? I'm pretty tired."
"And what?" kagome asked, "Sweat all the treatment we got?"
Sango gave her a stare, "we'll go to a light one, where you don't sweat. We can even scent it if they allow it."
"Well…okay, this is a day to relax." They reached the door that said `scented sauna', and went into the bathroom nest to it. There they found towels, and got rid of their robes.
Sango headed to the door, "you coming?"
"Just a sec," Kagome pulled out a hair tie and began the task of training her hair into cooperation. Sango sighed, realizing that might take awhile, and left with out her. She blindly ran into an employee.
"Gomen nasai," she continued to the sauna.
She didn't notice that she ran into Hojo. Hojo saw her walk into the sauna with out Kagome. He himself had been walking obliviously until he ran into Sango. He had been thinking of the perfect way to talk to Kagome alone. But when he noticed that Kagome was left behind, he nodded to himself. Maybe this was his chance. So he waited out side the bathroom, and raised his brow as a few curses were heard.
Kagome cursed as her hair fell out of the tie again. "Damn it!" she muttered. Trying again she piled it on her head, twisting the tie securely. Finally in place on top of her head, she sniffed victoriously. And then giggled. It was a mess, but who cares? She wondered what Inuyasha would do if he saw her this way. She snorted. He'd probably laugh his ass off. Then she'd have to punch him, and then laugh her self. She'd probably have trouble getting the tie out, so he'd come over to help. If that didn't work, he'd slice it off with his claws. She'd giggle at her foolishness while he combed out her hair with his fingers so she'd look normal. Then the heat of his gaze would make her flush red, and she'd look up to find him only inches form her face. He'd slowly lower his lips to hers, and give her a sweet kiss, that would have her begging for more. She'd fist his hair while his hands would explore over her towel. Growing in confidence, she'd feel the towel slip free and replaced by his hungry eyes-
"Ah! What the fuck?!" Kagome scolded her self. Kagome shook her head. Whoa! She didn't know she could have thoughts like. Placing a hand over her stomach she clamed her quivering nerves. She noticed a nice blush had spread over her cheeks in the mirror. She rubbed a temple. God, why she doing this to herself? Why torture herself? She knew he'd never think of her that way, so why bother to think of maybes? But why was she thinking this way? She'd never done it before. With the guys she's known, and all the famous stars she idolized, she's never ever considered them like that! Yet this boy had crawled under her skin somehow and was driving her crazy. The fact that he acted that way when they made out didn't help. It just drives her on. But…she's never actually done it before. Her nerves shook again. Would she actually…I mean, could she? Just…go with him? Kagome put a hand over her heart. But what would he think of her then? She slapped herself physically. The pinching pain in her cheek brought her back. You have got to stop doing that. Chuckling on her behalf, she exited the bathroom. And ran right into Hojo.
She laughed, "Gomen nasai, I wasn't looking where I was going."
"Its okay."
She froze. It couldn't be…she looked up. A cold feeling crept up her spine. She had a really bad feeling. I mean really bad.
"Uh…Hojo-kun. What are you doing here?" she stuttered.
"I work here," Hojo replied, "Kagome, I want to talk to you."
She glanced at the sauna door. "About what?"
"Our relationship."
Her eyes snapped to his, disbelief shining brightly. What the… "Hojo, we don't have a relationship anymore. Excuse me."
Clutching her towel tighter, she went to sneak past him. But a hand grasped her arm tightly, stopping her. She looked back at him. And paled. His usually calm features were contorted into a scowl. The same one that he used before she punched his lights out. But this one was so much darker. He tightened his grip. "What do you mean `we don't have a relationship anymore'? We've always had one."
He pulled her closer, his heated gaze, sending chills down her spine. "What's wrong Kagome? Don't trust me? I take that as an insult."
Unconsciously, he backed her back into the bathroom. She could feel her fingers shaking, her body cold. "P-please Hojo, let go, your hurting me."
He only held tighter, guaranteeing bruises. "No, I want to know why we don't have a relationship anymore. Am I not good enough for you? Do you need some money soaked bastard to please you? Is this what its about? Money? Is that all you've ever wanted?"
Kagome jumped when she felt a stall door hit her back. "N-no, its not like that-"
"Then what is it? Why did you leave me? Is it because I couldn't do the things Inuyasha does? Because I couldn't make you feel the way he does? Am I pathetic to you?"
"Please Hojo…" she squeaked when he suddenly jerked his face into hers. She trembled slightly. She's never seen him this way, ever. What's gotten into him? And why is he staring at her like that?
"Do I need to show you I'm just as good?" he couldn't take it anymore. Just once. He let go of her arm and pressed her against the door. She shrieked, but it was cut short when he cold lips smashed into hers. Recoiling, she tried to push him away, but he grabbed her wrist and locked them over her head. She let out a disgusted grunt as he did things to her neck she only let Inuyasha do.
"Hojo! Get off me!" but when he looked into her eyes, she froze. So…cold. This wasn't Hojo. No, this was somebody else that wasn't going to listen to anyone. He took advantage of her shock and kissed her again, forcing his way into her mouth. Shaking, she tried to recoil from his harsh touch, a few tears leaking. Oh god…why her? She gasped when she felt the towel ripped off her body, her only protection. But then the door creaked open.
Kouga grumbled as he walked down the hall with the saunas, clean towels tucked under his arm. God he hated this job. But he needed it. And it didn't pay so badly. Being manager of supplies had benefits in the profit department. All he really had to do was make sure everything was in its right place and deliver things where they needed to be. He sometimes collected towels, dropped them off, supplied lotions to massagers, brought up boxes to rooms, and the sort. And there was one more perk this whole thing. Ayame. A red haired little girl with bright green eyes, she had taken his breath away the first day he started working. She worked down in the basement with laundry, so he saw her many times a day. Up the score by including she was a fine little she-wolf. He got a special treat today when she dropped a towel she was handing him on the floor and bent to pick it up. Yusuke would have been proud to see his friends heart jump to his throat.
Kouga continued to grumble as he headed to the bathroom next to the scented sauna room. He held his breath, the scents of different oils wafting up his nose. Better do this quick. Speed walking, he streaked right into the bathroom top drop off towels. But froze when he was confronted by a very shocking sight.
That kid Hojo, a co worker, had a very frightened, very nude Kagome, pinned to a stall door. Hojo's head whipped his way. Kagome sent him a pleading look.
"KOUGA!" she screamed.
Snarling, Kouga dumped his load and went straight for the boy's neck. Hojo's eyes went wide, but he dodged in time, hooking his fist up into kouga's stomach. Unfazed, Kouga flung the boy across the room by his collar. Hojo got up rubbing his head only to be knocked flat on his back by Kouga's fist. When he tried to get up again, Kouga emphasized that he should stay down by following with a good kick to the ribs. Hojo fell with a sigh.
Panting, Kouga turned to a shaking Kagome. She had fallen to the floor and wrapped her arms around her knees. She kept her eyes on Hojo, whimpering uncontrollably. Going pale, Kouga grabbed a towel and covered her quivering form. Her face screwed up and she borrowed her head in her knees. She let lose the water works. Concerned, Kouga kneeled and pulled her into a lopsided embrace, rubbing her back.
"shh, its okay. It's okay. Everything's fine now. Shh…" Kouga growled at Hojo's still form. That bastard! He was going to pay for this. This was the one time that he wished Inuyasha was here, so he could help him kick the fucker's ass.
"Kagome!" I heard-" Sango gasped when she came in to find a sobbing Kagome being held by a dark eyed Kouga, trying to sooth her. She gasped again when she saw a still Hojo on the other side of the bathroom.
"W-what happened?" Sango breathed as she walked up to them.
Kouga's eyes flashed dangerously, " go get somebody, I don't think I can hold off killing him for long."
Sango paled and nodded, racing out of the bathroom.
Kagome clasped his arm. "t-t-thank you k-Kouga…" she whispered and she wretched a sob, "I wish Inuyasha was here.."
"So do I," he whispered back, "so do I…"
Sango came back with a panting security guard. The guard's eyes went form the two to Hojo. "What happened here?"
"That bastard tried to rape her," Kouga turned to Sango, "call Inuyasha."

Meanwhile, Inuyasha was at home up in his room, reading a very good book. But his mind was only half reading it. He couldn't help but t think of how glad Kagome was with his gift. He smiled. She was more than glad, she was ecstatic. And that thank you had been pretty nice too. He wondered what she was doing. Maybe she was getting a massage with some very nice smelling oils. But of course, she would have a female therapist, he wouldn't stand to hear of she had some Swedish guy named Hans working out her tense muscles with his expert hands. No he wouldn't, cause then he'd have to hunt down Hans and chop off his god given hands. Okay, moving on. Or maybe she was in the sauna, a skimpy little towel the only thing covering her sweaty body. She tried to fan herself and commented n how hot it is. He gulped at the familiar warmth in his gut. Maybe he shouldn't get so detailed with his fantasies. But he couldn't help it; she was just so damn sexy sometimes. And then beautiful, then shy, then erotically angry. God, no matter what he wanted her. But…did she feel the same? He didn't want to pressure her or anything, and he didn't want her to think he was a pervert and that's all eh was after. But damn if she didn't turn him on. Shrugging off his discomfort, he tried to go back to his book.
He sighed when the phone rang. He gave it an evil glare. `I swear, if that's Miroku suggesting we go try and sneak a peek at the girls again, I'm going to make it he can't talk for a month.' Shoving he book aside, he went and picked up the phone. If no one heard him, then they were deaf.
"WHAT!?"
