Kagome waited patiently at the bottom of the steps, two large suit cases by her side and a good sized box on her other side. She prayed her mother wouldn't come home early from shopping as she waited for Sesshoumaru. She looked down at her watch, he was twenty minutes late, "Jackass."

She sighed and sat down heavily on the edge of one of her suitcases, staring at her watch until she heard a quite car come to a stop in front of her.

She lifted her chin a bit and placed a finger on the edge of her jaw in mock puzzlement as a stoic youkai rolled down his window.

"Gee, you know what," she started in an innocent voice, " I was told to be here at seven sharp, because someone didn't like to wait, and yet, how is it that I'm the one left waiting for thirty minutes?"

He growled and mumbled for her to put her stuff in the car and get in, Kagome rolled her eyes and hefted her box and a suitcase into the trunk and put the other suitcase in the back before hopping up front and buckling her seatbelt, "Safety First!"

Sesshoumaru rolled his eyes and stepped on the gas, taking off from the shrine and heading towards the center of the city.

"Do you want food?"

"No."

"Why not."

"I'm not hungry."

"Yes you are, I can here your stomach growling."

"I'm not hungry," she repeated.

He rolled his eyes and dropped the subject, deciding to speak to her about the situation.

"I know you will be living with me, and I was the one who offered, but this will not be forever, do you understand?"

Kagome crossed her arms, "Don't speak to me as though I am a child Sesshoumaru, unless you have forgotten, had the well not thrown me back in time, I would be 21, plenty old enough to take care of myself, unfortunately, I look like a damn sixteen year old, so I am forced to take your aid."

He growled out a warning before reigning himself in, "I expect you to get a job, and help out around the house, you won't be lazing around like some slob, you understand?"

Kagome rolled her eyes but nodded.

They remained in silence for several minutes before Kagome spoke up, "Where do you work?"

"None of your business."

"Fine, be that way, I don't care!"

She was surprised by the sudden laughter coming from the demon next to her, "What's so funny?"

"Oh, you're just so mature," he replied sarcastically.

"Bite me." Her bitter voice sobered him quite a bit and he slowed down at a red light before leaning over.

"I just might be able to do that," he whispered seductively in her ear. His lips brushed against her throat and his warm breath fanned against her skin and Kagome felt her body heat up, "Green light," she managed to croak out.

He sat up, a slight smirk on his face as he began to drive once again.

 

Kagome stared out the window, mumbling a line of curses that would have made Inuyasha proud, Sesshoumaru continued to drive and cast sideways glances her way, wondering how many other bad habits she had picked up from his idiot half-brother.

"Such a colorful vocabulary, I would have thought someone as mature as you," Kagome growled at his sarcastic tone, "would at least speak better."

She ignored him and continued to mumble, only speaking up every now and again so she could hear the words, she meant only for him, "And such a jackass, never before met a person who enjoyed the stick up their ass." "I swear, and for someone to look down at me, I would have thought he would at least have the goddamn courtesy to leave me the fuck alone when I made sure he knew I was angry….but noooo, mister I'm-just-so-fucking-hot, had to take my words literally…jackass!"

"Motherfucking jerk, that's what he is! Arrogant, spoiled, jackass of a bastard who thinks all of women kind would just fall over themselves to get the chance to fuck him!"

"Goddammit I hate him, why the hell would I think, 'hmm, I sure would like to live with a fucking jackass for the next few months, just so I can be constantly…I don't know!, annoyed, by his all too annoying, annoying-ness!...God I hate him…"

He laughed quietly and allowed her rant to continue, only stopping her when he pulled up in front of his house, "Kagome."

"What!" her voice full of venom.

He rolled his eyes but continued on, "We're here, get your stuff and I'll show you your room."

She huffed out a curse but got out of the car and walked around back, yanking her things out of the car, leaving scratches and dents that she felt not the least bit guilty about.

He picked up the box and walked inside listening to her curse as she tripped over her own suitcase before getting everything straightened out. He walked down a hallway and stopped halfway through, at the room across from his, still useless after he had lived there for ten years. Of course, there were the essentials, one of his girlfriends had convinced him to turn that room into a guest bedroom. It was the perfect room for a girl, his ex had designed it with herself in mind, and she had decided she would live with him without asking, suffice to say he never saw her again after she finished the room. He set the box down inside the room and waited for the fiery miko to find him. When she finally did, her hair askew and clothes off kilter, she glared at him, "You know, you at least could have helped me find the goddamn room, I got lost in this fucking…flat!"

He ignored her statement, "This is where you'll be staying."

Kagome peeked her head in and gasped, "It's so pretty!"

She pushed past him and ran inside, bouncing on the bed before jumping up and running around senselessly and exclaiming how nice the room was every few seconds.

Finished examining the room she ran up to him, throwing her arms around his waist, "Thank you so much Sesshoumaru, you're very kind to me."

She backed away then blushed, "I'm really sorry for the way I acted earlier, I was being very rude and unfair."

He only nodded before telling her where everything was.

"The kitchen's down the hall, take a left, then a right and it's…right there. The family room is down the hall and to the right, the study is right across from it. There is a bathroom in here and my room is right there." He pointed to the door across the hall.

Kagome nodded and smiled, "Thank you Sesshoumaru."

He nodded then walked away, leaving the girl to unpack her things.

Kagome sat on her new bed, not wanting to unpack the last thing in her box, the red fabric seemed to mock her from its place. She was worried, where do I put it, how would he feel, if it was here, in his house, I think he would be angry…I shouldn't have brought it here!

She quickly reached down and picked it up, shoving it under her mattress and fighting the tears that threatened to spill forth. Luckily, she managed to fight them off, burying her pain for another day.

 

She lay in the bed, her face flushed and her breathing shallow, yet again, memories seemed to crush her, she flopped over and buried her head in the pillow, a sob broke forth and she cringed from the sound of her own tears. Her heart pounded in her chest and she would have sworn she could hear it breaking, "like glass," she would have said.

She could here his voice, and it only served to hurt her more.

Her sobs physically hurt her, and she tried to quiet herself, she was positive he could hear her, and she was ashamed of it.

 

He lay in his own bed, listening to her cry, knowing he should do something, but he didn't have the courage to be kind like that.
