Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha, the story would have ended so differently…No apparent link but I just wanted to say that I don't own Barbie.
“Speaking”
`Thinking'
“Oh my God! Kagura I have his number and he has mine, he said he would call me. But I want to call him. Who should call first? What can we do for a first real date? Does he even want to date me?” Kagome asked in one breath as she stepped into their apartment.
Even if she was still puzzled by the outcome of her own date, Kagura decided to rejoice for her friend and answered “Who wouldn't want to date you?”
The wind sorceress then realized but too late that she was still wearing Sesshomarou's jacket over her white polo.
`Damn it was so comfortable that I did not realize I was wearing it'
She then smiled mischievously and said to Kagome, you might have to call Inuyasha first, I have a little favor to ask of you.
“Why does it sound like I might not like it?” Kagome asked as she eyed her friend cautiously.
“I just want to get Sesshomarou's address so that I can give him back his jacket”.
“And what does it have to do with me?” Kagome asked even if she already knew where this conversation was heading.
“Please Kags, come on. You know you want to talk to him.”
“Okay fine you win! I'll call him, but first I need to take a shower and relax” Kagome heading towards the bathroom.
`And rehearse what I am going to tell him' Kagome added mentally as she walked towards her bedroom.

Inuyasha was at his apartment, and was packing all of Kikyou's belongings that she had left behind at his place. He found that the task was not as painful as he thought it would be. Maybe it was because he knew that Kikyou was now happy with Suitkotsu, the medicine student who paid for his studies by being Sesshomarou's driver. After all the two of them were better suited than him and Kikyou could ever be.
Just as Inuyasha put all the different boxes near the front door, he heard his phone ringing.
“Hi Inuyasha, it's Kagome”.
“Oh I wasn't expecting for you to call me tonight”.
“Yeah, well Kagura would like to know Sesshomarou's address so that she can return the jacket she borrowed.”
“Oh so that's why you called.” Inuyasha said disappointed.
“No, I also wanted to talk to you”.
“Really?...Okay, so he lives at 1234 Westland avenue Just tell her to punch 3455 at the gate. Anyway she can't miss the house of that arrogant bastard”.
“Okay, thanks, I guess I'll leave you for now.”
“Hum Kagome, do you want to go see a movie tomorrow?” Inuyasha asked as she was about to hang up.
“I'd love to. I also know a restaurant that serves great ramen we could go there for dinner?”
“That would be great. See ya tomorrow”.
“Goodnight Inuyasha”
The two of them went to bed smiling and waiting impatiently for the next day

As Kagura started her car, she kept praying and wishing that Sesshomarou would already been gone to work by the time she went to his place. She was forced to go there in the morning, because she had to work that afternoon.
`Hopefully he won't be there and I'll give the jacket to a maid. I'm sure he has a couple of house employees.'
Inuyasha was right when he said that there was no way Kagura could have missed Sesshomarou's house. From the outside it looked like a huge white block with a dark red roof. Even if he lived in a very expansive part of town, his house was the biggest house of the neighborhood, and it was encircled with a giant golden gate.
Kagura punched in the number and the gate opened to allow her little car access. Driving up to the house, she admired the gardens and was shocked by so much luxury: among the beautifully arranged flowers and trees stood wonderfully carved marble sculptures.
As she reached the front door, Kagura saw Sesshomarou's driver Suikotsu smoking a cigarette, but she knew it could simply mean that Sesshomarou had decided to drive to work himself.
The wind sorceress exited her car and waved to the young brown haired man, before ringing at the imposing front door.
She patiently waited for someone to open and was astonished to see a little brown haired human girl of about seven years old to open the door.
“Hi can I help you?” the little girl asked. She was wearing a pink `Barbie' pajama.
Kagura was left speechless for a moment before she cleared her throat and finally said “I just want to return Sesshomarou's jacket. Could you call someone who works here or something?”
“No need, pretty lady. Come inside. Rin will call daddy”.
`Daddy?! Who the hell is she talking about?' Kagura asked herself as she stepped into the foyer
Her question was soon answered as Sesshomarou appeared saying “Rin how many times will I have to tell you not to answer the d…” he then stopped dead in his tracks once he noticed that Kagura was standing a few feet away. The wind sorceress' gaze went from Rin to Sesshomarou.
“Daddy is the pretty lady your girlfriend?” the little girl asked with sparkling eyes.
“Rin, go back to bed. Jaken will bring you your medicine in a few minutes”
“Hum, okay. Good bye pretty lady” Rin then waved and hurried up the staircase.
“You have a daughter” Kagura said, she did not know how to react to the news. In a way she felt very hurt that Sesshomarou would not tell her something so important.
“Yes” he answered evenly.
“Here's your jacket!” Kagura said forcefully throwing the article of clothing in his face, before turning around ready to get the hell out.
But she felt Sesshomarou's strong grip closing on her wrist. He tugged on her arm and forced her to turn around and look at him.
“Why are you angry?” he asked her confused.
“I'm not angry, and let me go you bastard!” Kagura said struggling to get free.
Out of the corner of his eye, Sesshomarou sent a glare at one of his maids who was watching the scene with interest. The young woman winced and disappeared behind a door. The dog demon then walked towards another door, dragging Kagura along with him, despite her protests.
The room was a nice and cozy living room. Sesshomarou forced Kagura to sit in a comfortable beige armchair, as he stood right in front of her preventing her from escaping.
“What do you want?” she asked crossing her arms around her chest.
“For you to answer me: why are you angry?” he asked once more.
“Isn't it obvious? You have a daughter! And you didn't tell me. Why, were you hiding her or something? Did you also propose one million dollars to a woman to have Rin? And did you take her away from her mother as soon as she was born?” Kagura asked her face now flushed by anger.
“You are youkai, couldn't you tell that Rin is fully human? To answer your unvoiced question, I adopted Rin two years ago” he answered `Could it be that she is jealous?' he asked himself.
He then added “Besides I told you before you are the only woman I ever made that proposal to. And did you not tell me that Sada explained to you the reason behind our break up?”
*Flashback*
“How could you accept such an abomination? In my eyes no amount of money could ever make up for it. The moment he tried to impose it on me I revolted, that actually is the reason why we broke apart. I mean I am just curious after all you are youkai too. Where is your pride?”
*End of flashback*
Kagura mentally cursed, she felt ashamed for her earlier outburst. As she now reinterpreted Sada's words Kagura understood that contrary to what she first thought, Sada was not talking about `the proposal' but about Sesshomarou taking in a human child as a daughter. Noticing that Sesshomarou was looking at her curiously Kagura did her best to get rid of her blush and asked wanting to change the topic: “Shouldn't you be at work?”
“Yes. But I will be going in late. The reason why Rin was not at the fair yesterday was that she was sick, and I had to leave early so abruptly because her condition had worsened, and she wanted me to come and see her. Since she will not be going to school today, I decided to stay with her for a few hours.”
“I see.” `Hum! Looks like he's a pretty decent dad' She thought.
“Well, I'll see you later. I've got to go. I'm working today.” Kagura then quickly stood up, which caused her to brush against Sesshomarou who was standing right in front of her and closer than she had anticipated.
The sudden contact forced her to jolt and as she tried to step back, Kagura hit her foot against the armchair she was sitting on. Seeing that she was about to fall backwards, Sesshomarou took her in his arms and pressed her against his chest. He did not really think that she could have hurt herself, but he acted more on instinct and reflex than anything.
Neither of them had expected for a simple embrace to feel so good. It was as if their bodies were designed to blend in perfectly. Kagura felt so at ease in Sesshomarou's arms, and he with delight breathed in her deliciously appealing natural jasmine scent.
The wind sorceress sighed and reluctantly tried to free herself from Sesshomarou's arms. Feeling that she was trying to get away, the dog demon strengthened his hold on her.
“Rin was a homeless orphan when I found her. She ran away from the orphanage she was placed in after the death of her parents. So I took her in” Sesshomarou said.
`Why am I telling her this?' Sesshomarou thought.
`Because you'd do anything to keep her in your arms. Even for just a little bit longer' his inner demon answered.
`It's ridiculous, I only want her to trust me so that she will bear my child.' He reasoned.
`Pfft! You are falling in love with her' his inner demon mocked.
`This Sesshomarou does not believe in love'
“Is it because of Rin that you and Sada broke up?” Kagura asked shyly, finally relaxing against Sesshomarou's chest and encircling him with her arms.
Sesshomarou pulled away to look into Kagura's eyes before saying “as I said before, Sada lacked mother instinct and an open mind. She saw Rin as an abomination. I am sure you are aware that even in this day and age some youkai still see humans as inferior.”
Kagura knew that even if he had not said it Sesshomarou thought that his little girl was worth more to him than his girlfriend could ever be.
“I really have to go, I'm working in an hour.” Kagura whispered softly breaking their embrace. His revelations really moved her, she would have never in a million years thought that he had such a kind heart.
`I can't afford to think of him as a kind hearted person. He only wants to use me. And I am using him in return. That's all!' Kagura thought as she walked out of the room and straight to her car.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
Through the window Sesshomarou watched Kagura retreat to the safety of her car. As he watched her speed away he thought `Maybe it is time for the next date. She will be in for a surprise'.
A/N: Rin was NOT supposed to be in this story, but she just popped out of no where. I just can't resist this little kid. The character is just so cute. Next time we'll see what Sesshy has in store for Kagura. It will be named The good old times. I can't wait for the next one, it will be great I've got lots of ideas for it!!!
