Sovereignty (Thank you I'm glad you liked Kagura's sarcastic humor. You'll finally get to know Sesshy's question…)
Unistar (Kagura is a tough girl she doesn't need Sesshy to fight her battles, but a lil' help is always welcome. Kags and Inuyasha are just too funny to write…)
Zetsuii (Don't worry there ALWAYS is lemony goodness in my fics. But all shall come in due time, and by the way I'm not saying who will get to do the nasty…)
Disclaimer: If I owned Inuyasha, Sesshomarou would be the one to hold Kagura's heart.
“Speaking”
`Thinking'
Kagura tried to walk back to their box. But she soon realized that Sesshomarou's hand was still flung around her waist.
She then looked up at Sesshomarou's face and was shocked to see his mesmerizing eyes shimmering like a pool of liquid gold.
“What makes you think I was acting? Kagura I have something to ask you” he whispered.
Kagura could only nod, too afraid to use words, as she did not know if she could let out a coherent sentence.
“Kagura,” Sesshomarou asked “Will you come with me?”
Kagura was surprised by his request and asked raising an eyebrow “go with you where?”
“Tomorrow I have to leave for Paris and must spend two days there. Of course it is to conduct business, but if you were to come with me I believe I can extend my stay to five days or even a full week”.
“I…I don't know” Kagura muttered in shock. Of all the things he could have asked of her, spending a week away with him, was definitely not something she would have guessed.
“Why the hesitation? Consider it a date. It would after all convince people of the existence of our relationship” He said resting his deep amber eyes on her face where uncertainty was painted.
“Yeah, well it's quite different form going to dinner or watching a movie it's…” Sesshomarou cut her by crashing his lips to hers.
As he pulled back, Kagura whimpered at the loss of contact. Once she opened her eyes, he burnt her with the intensity of his gaze.
“Your answer?” he whispered, fanning his hot breath over her lips.
“But, I have my job I can't just get away” Kagura said even if both her head and her heart were screaming at her to accept his offer.
“You will find a way”
Kagura thought for a few seconds and sighed remembering the sick days she had yet to use. “Fine you win, you domineering dog!”
Sesshomarou smirked and once more kissed her, but this time it was a much more passionate kiss.

“Oi! Took you guys long enough, where were you? What the fuck were you doing?!” Inuyasha asked with a grin. He wished he could have missed half of the dreaded performance doing whatever his brother and Kagura had been doing except with Kagome of course.
“Wouldn't you like to know” Kagura trailed off as she sat back on her seat next to her best friend.
“Seeing how your lipstick smeared and Yura's perfect bun is now disheveled, I think I can tell what you were doing” Kagome whispered in the wind sorceress' pointy ear. Her little comment made Kagura blush furiously.
“To be young and in love. It reminds me of us. Except that we were so much more expressive. If memories serves well, you couldn't quite lift your hands of me… .No matter we will have our grandchildren soon enough” Izayoi said as she looked at her husband.
Touga winked at his wife and proudly smiled looking at his two sons.
With their perfect hearing both of the said sons heard their parents' comments. Inuyasha coughed loudly as if he had choked on his own saliva, luckily for him Kagome quickly soothed him by rubbing his back in a circular motion. On the other hand Sesshomarou did his best not to roll his eyes at his family's stupidity. He did pretend not to notice the curious stare Kagura sent him, as she had remained oblivious to what had started the commotion.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
“Sorry I'm late guys” Kagura said as she sat down with her cup of coffee and caramel goodness next to her two best friends. The two others were already sitting at their usual table in the small coffee shop.
“So, Kagome was telling me that her date went great. And also that you met the parents. That's fantastic!” Yura exclaimed.
“I know, I think it means we are really getting serious. Meeting the parents is an important step in a relationship, right?” Kagome asked still not sure if Inuyasha was completely over Kikyou.
“Absolutely, it's a really big step, don't you agree?” Yura asked as she turned towards Kagura. Seeing the dazed look on her friend's face, Yura added “Earth to Kagura?”
“Hum? What? I agree with Kagome!” Kagura said as she snapped out of her daze.
“Hey, you would instinctively side with Kagome without even knowing what we were talking about?! You would choose Kagome over me your friend AND sister in law!?” Yura said faking indignation.
“Yeah, yeah, what were you saying?” Kagura asked with a dismissive hand gesture.
“I think that things are getting serious between Inuyasha and me. But seeing how you missed half of the performance dong whatever it was you were doing with Sesshomarou, it seems like you two are getting serious too…” Kagome trailed with a mischievous grin.
Kagura blushed before answering “it's not like that. I already saw this Opera and if you must know I had a run in with Naraku and Kanna.”
At her words her two friends looked at her with sorrowful eyes. “Are you okay?” Yura asked.
“Why wouldn't I be? Kanna has given birth to a healthy baby boy, and they named him Hakudoushi.” Kagura said trying her best to smile. She really did not want her friends to pity her.
“I didn't know, Kagura I'm so sorry.” Kagome said feeling bad for teasing Kagura earlier.
“Why? I introduced him to Sesshomarou, you should have seen Naraku's face he was so angry. I loved it. But the best part, Sesshomarou invited me to spend a whole week with him in Paris”. Kagura said the last part as fast as possible, she was sure her friends would scold her for accepting Sesshomarou's invitation.
“Aww how romantic!” Yura exclaimed a look of envy painted on her face.
“Are you sure it's a good idea?” Kagome asked concerned about her friend.
“Are you nuts?! Of course she should go, and bring us back nice souvenirs! I mean it's not everyday that a rich and handsome man asks you to spend a week in Paris with him! I already know the souvenir I want you to bring me, a lock of Sesshomarou's gorgeous silver hair.” Yura said with sparkling eyes.
“You are crazy and you freak me out. In other words the answer is no.” Kaghura told the hair demoness. “And you” the wind sorceress added pointing at Kagome “'stop worrying, you should have seen the look in his eyes when Sesshomarou took me in his arms. I know he has feelings for me.”
The dark haired human then asked “but what about the proposal? I mean are trying to tell me he forgot all about it? I just don't believe that.”
“Yeah well the one month is up and he did not bring up the topic so yeah I guess he doesn't care anymore” Kagura answered trying to convince her self more than her friend.
Kagome smiled sadly at her roommate thinking `I wish that you are right. But your one month notice is up in exactly a week. I can only hope I am wrong and that your trip is not your last “last date”…'
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
Kagura looked once more at the small message delivered a few minutes ago. For once it was not Jaken who made the delivery but some other employee she had not met before.
The wind sorceress read the small sentence one more time: `Pack your bags'. She had been surprised that for once Sesshomarou had not given her an exact time.
She remained thoughtful for a few seconds before she picked up her phone and dialed Sesshomarou's office phone number.
After a few rings, to Kagura's annoyance Touran picked up. The wind wielder had yet to forgive the blue haired demoness for not relaying to Sesshomarou the information to pick her up at Yura's place the previous day.
“Good afternoon. Office of Mr Sesshomarou Tashio, how can I help you?”
“I want to talk to him” Kagura said not bothering to greet Touran or even introduce herself.
“I am afraid Mr Tahio is in the middle of an important meeting, and therefore does not have the time for the likes of you.
Kagura snorted at the comment and simply said “whatever!” before hanging up. She knew that Touran would only be a waste of her time `So why did I even bother calling?' she wondered.
Kagura then remembered that she had Jaken's number, after all he was Sesshomarou's loyal servant he would know when his `master' as he called him would be living.
“Toad man I want to speak to Sesshomarou” was the only greeting she gave as Jaken picked up the phone.
“Wind wench what makes you think I would comply with your wishes?”
Kagura rolled her eyes but said with a smile “If you don't I will tell him you have a picture of him in your wallet”. Of course it was just a joke but she could completely picture Jaken going around town with a picture of his revered master on him.
“How did you find out? I bet it's the human brat who told you!” Jaken retorted.
Kagura had to try her best not to explode in laughter, it appeared she had made a lucky guess. She was thinking of adding something to her blackmail, but before she could say another word, another voice came through the receiver.
“Kagura! Rin is so happy to talk to you!”
“Hi Rin, tell me is your dad home?” Kagura asked stifling a giggle as she was trying to visualize how Rin managed to tackle the phone out of Jaken's hands.
“What do you mean? He is on his way to pick you up. He said you were going with him on his trip.” After hearing this it took Kagura a few seconds to register the fact that Rin just informed her that Sesshomarou was on his way to her place and that she had not even started packing.
“Damn it! Sorry Rin, but I got to go!” she then hung up and ran to her bedroom.
00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 0000000
`Sesshomarou is such a conniving bastard! Why didn't he tell me we were leaving now? I'm sure I forgot something important, that's what you get for packing so quickly… Gods where is my passport again?' Kagura asked herself as she somehow managed to close her suitcase.
Just as she started exploring her drawers, she heard a loud knock on the door and knowing who it was decided to find her passport before answering the door. After all she figured it would not hurt Sesshomarou to wait a little.
Kagura even took her time to leave a little note for Kagome, then dragging her full suitcase behind her, she finally opened her door. Ignoring Sesshomarou's dark glare, she locked the door of her apartment behind her.
“Wind witch, this Sesshomarou does not wait!” he stated as Suikotsu picked up Kagura's suitcase.
“Well there's a first for everything. Besides that's what you get for not telling me we were leaving now” she retorted as they walked to his car.
“I believe my message was quite clear” he answered as the driver started the car. To his answer Kagura simply rolled her eyes.
`We're going to be stuck together for a week, so better not start fighting now…' she reasoned as Sesshomarou's limousine drove them to the airport.
A/N: I do wonder why so many people thought Sesshy was going to propose…Come on you know I have to make them suffer some more, right? Anyway next time their little trip to Paris begins, the chapter will be accordingly called Mile high lovin'.
