Flashback:
Forgetting how to speak for second, Kagome said with a slight bow, "It's a pleasure to meet you, Mr. Sesshoumaru."

Not Just a Dream
‘She’s real? How is this possible?’ Sesshoumaru wondered.
Sesshoumaru bowed back in greeting, still in shock of seeing that Kagome actually existed.
“It is a pleasure to meet you Kagome.” Sesshoumaru answered, trying to figure out how this female was in front of him.
“Miss Sango, I see you are also located in this area as well?” Sesshoumaru questioned having spotted Sango when he scanned the room.
Nodding in response, Sango answered, “Yes, Kagome and I have been interns here for a little over eight months now. Right, Kagome?”
Kagome nodded. Inuyasha and Kouga looked at each other confused.
“Wait, you have been here for eight months?! Who hired you?” Inuyasha questioned shocked they just met or saw Kagome.
Sango answered, “I was hired by Mr. Myoga and Mr. Shippo.”
Kagome answered after her, “I was hired by Mr. Myoga and Mr. Toga.”
That answer got Sesshoumaru’s definite attention.
“You were hired by father?” Sesshoumaru questioned Kagome.
Kagome replied by nodding and asked, “Is that strange?”
“The old man doesn’t usually do the hiring for interns. He usually meets with the interns if they get selected for trainings, or if they get selected at all.” Inuyasha informed her, still confused.
Kagome’s eyebrows furrowed together, clearly confused as well.
Suddenly the phone in the mailroom rang.
Kagome stepped away from the three men to answer the phone.
“Mailroom, twenty-third floor, this is Kagome speaking, how may I help you?” Kagome answered cheerfully.
After a few minutes, Kagome answered to the other person on the phone, “Yes sir, the tenth floor staff party invitations are completed and will be delivered shortly.”
After listening to other person for a few minutes, Kagome told the other person goodbye.
“We can see you are busy. We will meet again Kagome.” Sesshoumaru promised.
Sesshoumaru, Inuyasha, and Kouga left to return to work. However, Sesshoumaru needed to make a trip to see his father about Kagome. Especially since his beast seemed to be bugging him about the woman from his dreams.

When Sesshoumaru entered his father’s office, Toga’s eyebrows raised.
“Is there something I can help you with, son?” Toga asked Sesshoumaru.
Taking a seat, Sesshoumaru replied “Father do you often take it upon yourself to help with the hiring of interns?”
Leaning back in his chair, he thought for a minute on his son’s question before answering.
“No, not often, I can only recall a few.” Toga answered with a smile, “the most I have interviewed to hire, are managers or executives. Miroku is an example of one of those interns.’’
“How many interns are there, that you personally hired?” Sesshoumaru questioned trying to get him to tell him about Kagome.
Toga smiled understanding what he was getting at.
‘So he has found the woman he has been painting from his dreams. This will be very interesting’. Toga thought before answering Sesshoumaru.
“Only one, Miss Kagome Higurashi. I’m guessing you have met?” Toga answered with a smile.
“What do you know of her? What made her so special for you father?” Sesshoumaru questioned.
“Oh, you wish to know more than what you do from merely painting her for hundreds of years, son?” Toga asked him with the knowing smile still plastered on his face.
“You found my paint room as well father? Who else knows of that room?” Sesshoumaru asked irritated.
“Besides myself and you, only Inuyasha and Kouga, as far as I am aware.” Toga answered.
“I see; so father will you tell me about Kagome?” Sesshoumaru questioned.
“Well besides the information you can find out from her file, Kagome is a very caring and hard working young miko. However, the best way for someone to find out about another, is by usually spending some time with them.” Toga told him.
‘A miko? I need to know more.’ Sesshoumaru thought as he said goodbye to his father.
As Sesshoumaru was leaving his office, Toga reminded him, “Sesshoumaru remember we will be getting the intern floor reassignment email on Friday.”
Nodding to his father, Sesshoumaru made his way to his office with the intention of requesting a copy of Kagome’s file.

When it finally reached six o’clock, Kagome and Sango were very excited to be done with work for the day.
“Yay, freedom!” Kagome laughed while cheering as she walked with Sango to the bus.
“Hey Kagome, what were the girls going on about with you this afternoon?” Sango asked her.
“Oh, they were going off about wanting tips to get Mr. Inuyasha, Mr. Kouga, or Mr. Sesshoumaru’s attention. I guess Mr. Sesshoumaru is now divorced.” Kagome told Sango.
“Well that’s not surprising; they seem to have taken an interest in you Kagome. You have to admit it’s very interesting.” Sango told her.
Just as Kagome was about to answer her, a car pulled up beside them.
“Hello Kagome.” Kouga greeted through the rolled down window.
“Need a ride?” Inuyasha invited the two girls.
Kagome and Sango looked at each other, and shrugged. When they approached the car they were greeted with seeing Inuyasha and Kouga in the limo, as well as Miroku, Sesshoumaru, and Shippo.
As Kagome took it all in, she answered, “Thank you for the offer, but we don’t want to be a bother and interrupt your plans.”
Sesshoumaru was a little surprised by her response. Most females would have jumped at the chance to be in a car full of these males.
“We just have a business conference at the old man’s house in an hour. Giving you two a ride will be no bother.” Inuyasha told them.
Before Kagome could answer, Sango jumped in “We will graciously accept your offer then. Thank you so much.”
Kagome looked at her in question but only received a smile and a pull into the vehicle. After giving the driver the address of their apartment, the two young women made small talk with the men until the intern party was asked about.
“So, Sango did you find your decorations?” Kouga asked to end the small talk.
Sango shook her head no in response.
“You couldn’t find them? Did you check the seventh floor?” asked Shippo.
“The seventh floor? I was told to look in the fifteenth floor.” said Sango, clearly confused.
“They were moved from the fifteenth floor to the seventh floor because it made more sense for the decorations to be on the same floor as the banquet rooms.” Shippo explained and apologized to her for the miscommunication.
“So, do you two ladies live together?” Miroku asked both of the girls.
Kagome nodded, “We live together with another friend of ours.”
Sesshoumaru didn’t say much during the ride but listened intently to the conversation, his eyes never leaving Kagome.
When they reached Kagome and Sango’s apartment, the girls said their goodbyes and thank you and went into their apartment.
After dropping the girls off, Sesshoumaru had promised his beast to see and speak to Kagome again because he was being yelled at by said beast; it seemed constant now that he had met her.

“Kagome did you notice who could not keep his eyes off of you in the limo?” Sango asked her giggling.
Kagome nodded at her, “Mr. Sesshoumaru, I know. What I don’t understand is why? I mean did I have something on my face Sango?”
Sango looked at Kagome’s face looking for something that wasn’t there.
“Does Kagome got a zit or something?” came the asking voice of Ayame, the two’s red haired wolf demoness of a roommate.
“Kagome got stared at the whole ride home by Mr. Sesshoumaru Tashio. So, Kagome was only wondering if there was something on her face, no zit by the way.” Sango said with a smile.
“Mr. Sesshoumaru Tashio? Oooooo he is fine, but wait isn’t he married?” Ayame asked.
“Oh, Ayame! Aren’t you up on the drama of the Tashio’s? Mr. Sesshoumaru is now divorced from his wife.” Sango informed.
“Really? Oooooo, Kagome may have some sexy romance starting. Lucky Kaggie.” Ayame giggled along with Sango.
“You two have lost your minds, I am going to bed.” Kagome told them as she walked towards her bedroom.
“Have beautiful dreams of Sesshoumaru, Kaggie!” Ayame and Sango told her as she was closing her bedroom door.
