Someday You Will Be Loved

 

Chapter 3

 

You may feel alone when you're falling asleep

 

Kagome awoke from a fitful slumber. This past week had really taken a toll on her. She had even avoided going into work all week. Why? Because it was Inuyasha's father she worked for, as one of his secretaries. She had needed a job to help pay her way through college and Mr. Takahashi had kindly given her the job, and her without any real work experience. She really owed her college career to him, but having her new resolve, knew that any reminder of Inuyasha would have an affect on her.

 

So she rolled back over and cried herself back to sleep, knowing that in the morning she'd have to go back.

 

And everytime tears roll down your cheeks

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*

 

“Ah son,” Mr. Takahashi said, patting his son on the back, “Today is the day you begin to learn the family business, one day I will leave you in charge of the whole company!”

 

`He thinks he will leave me in charge,' Sesshoumaru thought smirking, `No, I will take control and then kick him and the rest of this miserable family to the curb, just as they did me.'

 

“Yes father, I do believe I am ready as well.”

 

“Good, good, see I always told you there was a reason I sent you to that school.”

 

“You mean other then to keep your precious little half-breed brat safe?” Sesshoumaru answered quietly.

 

“It was for your own protection as well Sesshoumaru! And NEVER speak of your brother in such a way!”

 

“You mean HALF-brother, you'd do well to remember father, that my mother was NOT mortal, like your new bitch and Inuyasha's mother. Therefore, he is below THIS Sesshoumaru, as are ALL those with mortal blood!” Sesshoumaru shouted dangerously, storming out of the room.

 

“I will see you at the office,” he stated as he slammed the front door.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*

 

Inuyasha stood in front of the science building waiting for Kikyo. He had already seen Kagome go in with their other friends, Sango and Miroku. He had felt some pang of guilt, but thought he had handled everything well enough with the note.

 

`Besides I DID try to talk to her, which is more then I can say for Kagome.'

 

It was at this time he heard Kikyo's familiar laugh coming from behind him. He turned around to greet her, but his mouth was left speechless, as he saw her kiss the man she now clung to. A sense of regret settled on Inuyasha as he looked at the black-haired, crimson-eyed man.

 

“Oh! Inuyasha! Hello!” Kikyo yelled waving, “Come over here, there's someone I want you to meet!”

 

Inuyasha snapped out of his stupor and attempted to casually walk over. “Hey, Kikyo, there was someone you wanted me to meet?”

 

“This,” she said pointing to the man beside her, “Is my fiancé! Naraku!”

 

“Wow, your fiancé,” Inuyasha said, once again in a stupor.

 

“He just got back from college in America!” Isn't that amazing? I've always been a sucker for well-traveled men!” She said giggling again and kissing Naraku's cheek.

 

“Yeah, amazing,” Inuyasha said more to himself then anyone else, why hadn't she told him she was engaged in the week they were together, “Anyway, I've got to run, classes you know. Nice to meet you Naraku.”

 

“Likewise,” Naraku said smiling faintly as Inuyasha turned and headed into the building.

 

Inuyasha needed to talk to someone, normally it would be Kagome he would turn to, but that was not going to happen. It was then that he finally realized what he had done. He set down slowly on the stairs, completely oblivious to the world around him, placed his head in his hands and began to cry. Cry for what he had done to Kagome. Cry for his one true friendship severed by his actions. And finally, cry for himself, as he realized for the first time in his life, he was truly alone.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*

 

“Kagome, are you sure your ready for this,” Sango asked worriedly looking at her friend, as they ate lunch in the school dining hall.

 

“Sango, I have to go into work sometime. I can't just keep putting it off,” Kagome answered, trying to reassure her friend and herself, “Besides, we both know Inuyasha won't be there. He'd never go to a place he'd have to REALLY work at.”

 

“Well, If you're sure…” Sango said doubtingly.

 

“I am, OH!” Kagome said as she looked down at her watch, “If I don't get a moving I'll be late! See ya later Sango! Call you tonight!”

 

“I'll hold you to that!” Sango yelled at Kagome's retreating back.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*

 

“Whew!” Kagome gasped as she ran into the Takahashi Corp building, `I made it just in time!'

 

“Hey Isabella,” Kagome greeted the Spanish student that also worked as one of Mr. Takahashi's secretaries.

 

“Hey `Gome, its been awhile hasn't it?” Isabella asked looking up from her work.

 

“Yeah, it has,” Kagome replied, “I just haven't been feeling like myself lately.”

 

“Oh, well I hope your feeling better,” Isabella said worriedly, “Hey, that reminds me, Mr. Takahashi said that if you came in today, he wanted to see you.”

 

“Ugh, probably to “let me go”,” Kagome said making little quote marks with her fingers.

 

“No, I'm sure not,” Isabella laughed, “Let me buzz his office and tell him you're here.”

 

“Whatever you say Bella,” Kagome said going to hang her coat up.

 

“Mr. Takahashi,” Bella said buzzing into the main office.

 

“Yes Miss Martinez, what do you need?” came the reply over the intercom.

 

“I just wanted to let you know that Miss Higurashi just arrived.”

 

“Ah good, send her in immediately.”

 

“Yes, sir, I will.”

 

“Well you heard the man,” Bella said turning to Kagome.

 

“Ugh, I know,” Kagome replied heading to the main office.

 

“Good luck girl!” Bella yelled giving her a thumbs up.

 

~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ *~*~*~*~*

 

When she reached the office, she raised her hand and knocked.

 

“Enter,” the voice behind the door said.

 

Kagome opened the door and walked into the spacious office, not bothering to look around. As she walked toward her employer's desk she noticed the sun coming in through eh large windows reflected off his hair, making it seemingly glow…

 

`Just like Inuyasha's,' she thought, `Oh no girl, don't even start with that!'

 

“Kagome, my girl!” Mr. Takahashi said, “You had me worried you were out for so long, but I'm SO glad you came back today.”

 

“Mmm, yes, I just needed some time for myself,” she replied not really thinking.

 

“I'm sure,” he replied looking at the girl who was more like a daughter to him, “Kagome, I'm going to be relocating you.”

 

“Huh? What?” Kagome exclaimed.

 

`I told Bella he was letting me go!'

 

“Kagome, you can stop looking like that, I'm not going to fire you,” Takahashi said laughing.

 

“Oh,” was all Kagome could think to say.

 

“What I mean, is that the company has taken a new Vice President. Since you've been here the longest and I KNOW I can trust you, I'm putting you with him. This was we don't have to train anyone new.”

 

“A new Vice President? Oh ok,” Kagome replied finally noticing someone else was in the office.

 

“Kagome, I'd like you to meet your new employer…”

 

But I know your heart belongs to someone you've yet to meet

 

“…My eldest son, Sesshoumaru.”

 

Kagome gasped as she looked at the man before her, long silver hair was pulled into a low ponytail and golden eyes watched her coldly.

 

`How will I ever be able to work for this man. This man whose features remind me so of Inuyasha?'

 

Someday you will be loved

A/N Oky dok! So there you have it! They've finally met, I'll do Sesshou's reaction in the next chapter, which I promise won't take as long as this one to come out. It will probably be around Jan. 10th though. The 3rd is my 21st B-day, and some of my High school friends are throwing me a party, so I already KNOW I'll be out of commission for at least 2 days! Hehe! Anyway Isabella Martinez is MY original character…you'll probably see a lot of her throughout the story. Also if anyone wants to be my reader, give me ideas to make these chappies longer, just let me know! Oh yeah, and if you want to hear the song this story is based on, let me know & I'll email it to you! Love y'all bunches! CIAO!
