Someday You Will Be Loved

Chapter 4

 

Sesshoumaru stood silently observing the woman who stood before him. She was fidgeting nervously and looked like she could get sick at any point in time.

 

`Good, I will have no problem controlling this woman,' Sesshoumaru thought, `No, she's no more then a girl.'

 

He looked her over again, she was small, which accounted for her looking younger then her 19 years. Her black hair was pulled into a low bun at the nape of her neck and the black-framed glasses she wore made her azure eyes seemingly take up half her face.

 

`She really is a mousey looking girl, weak and pathetic, like all mortals.'

 

Something in the way he looked at her made Kagome's blood boil. Sure she would admit that she looked a bit severe, definitely the part of a starchy secretary, but she wasn't here to impress anyone.

 

`I need NO man,' She reminded herself.

 

“Alright Kagome dear, you may clean out your desk,” Takahashi said, “Then return here and Sesshoumaru will show you to your new office.”

 

“Yes sir,” Kagome answered leaving.

 

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

 

 

“Sooo?” Bella asked as Kagome walked back into the secretaries office, “Did he let you go?”

 

“No, I've been relocated,” Kagome answered absentmindedly.

 

“Relocated! Where?” Bella wailed, “You can't leave me here with no help! What will I ever do without you to joke around with? I'll just simply DIE of boredom!”

 

“Bella, quit being so overdramatic,” Kagome laughed, “I'll still be working in the same building, just for Takahashi's son. I'm sure we'll still see each other on breaks.”

 

“Do you mean Inuyasha's finally decided to work?”

 

“No,” Kagome cringed, “Its his other son, Sesshoumaru.”

 

“Wow, I didn't know he had another son,” Bella said amazed.

 

“Yeah, I'd heard of him. Oh Bella,” Kagome cried, “I don't know if I'll be able to work with him. He seems so cold and distant. He made me feel so insignificant and little.”

 

“Kagome,” Bella said getting up from her desk and pulling Kagome to her, “What happened to the spitfire I once knew? You'll be fine, just keep your head up, and hey, I want to see that fire back in your eyes.”

 

“Thanks Bella,” Kagome said returning the hug, “You always know what I need to hear.”

 

“You got it girl! Now go back in there and show him whose boss!”

 

“I will Bella. I will.” Kagome laughed gathering her things and heading back to the main office.

 

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

 

“Well father, I must say that you finally did something right,” Sesshoumaru said once Kagome had closed the office door, “This one looks like she'll be easy to control.”

 

“Kagome?” Takahashi laughed, “Oh no, that one is as predictable as fire, she's got spirit and spunk. I've never seen her put with any crap she didn't deserve.”

 

“Surely we are not speaking of the same mousey twit that just left this room?”

 

“About that,” Takahashi replied, “I'm not too sure. I think maybe her and your brother must've had a falling out, he's been acting strangely lately too. You know Inuyasha and Kagome have been best friends since they were 5.”

 

“No, I didn't father,” Sesshoumaru said sarcastically, “but thank you for informing this Sesshoumaru of this vitally important fact.”

 

“I just mean to be civil to her.”

 

Just then there was a knock on the door, Kagome had returned.

 

“Come in Kagome,” Takahashi said, “Sesshoumaru will show you to your new office.”

 

Kagome looked to her new employer as he stood from the chair he currently occupied. She had not noticed how tall he was until he was next to her. Since her head barely reached his chest, she had to crane her neck to look at him.

 

“Come girl,” he said wrapping his long fingers around her upper arm and propelling her outside to the elevator.

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

 

“I'm worried about Kagome,” Sango said to her boyfriend Miroku, “She looks so severe. I mean I KNOW she said she doesn't need a man in her life, but really she's scared away most of her other friends as well. If Inuyasha would have practiced just a bit of self-restraint, this wouldn't be happening.”

 

“Sango, dear, I don't think this is the time…” Miroku warned as he saw Inuyasha approaching from behind Sango.

 

“Oh, hush Miroku, you know just as well as I do that he just used her for her body…I mean she does resemble…”

 

“Inuyasha!” Miroku exclaimed, “How have you been?”

 

“Oh! Inuyasha, I didn't even hear you walk up.” Sango said.

 

“Yeah, I'm sure,” he replied.

 

Sango and Miroku looked at their other friend. He really didn't look much better then Kagome. His silver white hair hung messily down his back, his red hoodie was dirty, it was obvious that he hadn't been taking care of himself. Wait, were his eyes red, had Inuyasha been crying?

 

“Say Inuyasha? Are you alright?” Miroku asked coming up beside him.

 

“Did either of you know Kikyo was engaged?”

 

“Sure, I think Kagome told us a month or 2 ago, some guy that was in America. Why did you just find out or something?”

 

Inuyasha's head dropped, “I guess you could say that,” he said walking away, leaving Sango and Miroku to stare at his retreating back.

 

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

 

`Why wouldn't she tell me that important little detail, but she had tried hadn't she…'

 

*FLASHBACK*

 

“So…” Inuyasha inquired, “When are you gonna set me up with that cousin of yours?”

 

Kagome's hand stopped mid-reach into the popcorn bowl. She blinked and looked up at her friend.

“Really Inuyasha, I think you should just give up on her, she's not your type anyway.”

 

“Kagome your not worried about us are you?” Inuyasha asked brushing a strand of her hair back, “You know nothing could ever come between our friendship.”

 

“I know…its just that…”

 

“Oh shit! It's 12:30! I was supposed to meet Miroku 30 minutes ago! I'll catch you later `Gome!” Inuyasha exclaimed as he headed for the door.

 

“Inuyasha! Wait! I have to tell you, Kikyo just got…”

 

“Bye!” Inuyasha hollered as the door slammed.

 

“…engaged,” Kagome sighed as she set back on the couch.

 

*END FLASHBACK*

 

`Damn, she did try, I'm such an idiot!'

 

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

 

Kagome stood quietly as the elevator ascended to the 14th floor of the building. The doors opened to a spacious lobby, decorated in burgundy and ivory. She saw her desk in front of two large mahogany doors, which she assumed was where Sesshoumaru's office lay. She was brought out of her thoughts by a deep voice behind her.

 

“There is your desk,” Sesshoumaru stated, “Put your things away, then come in my office. I'll tell you what I expect of you.”

 

“Yes Mr. Takahashi,” Kagome replied.

 

“Itou,” the man said turning around, a dangerous glint in his eyes.

 

“But your father's name is…” she was cut off by a hand on her mouth.

 

“I'm well aware of my father's name woman, but mine is Itou,” Sesshoumaru's eyes flashed, “You WILL remember that.”

 

With that said Sesshoumaru opened his door, entered the office and shut it tight behind him.

 

`Oh geez Kagome, way to get off on the wrong foot with the new boss. You'll be out of here before you know it!' Kagome thought, finishing putting her things away, `Thank God I don't have to be in the same room with him!'

 

“Girl!” the voice on the intercom boomed, scaring Kagome, “You will come now.”

 

`That does it,' Kagome thought entering the office angrily.

 

“Kagome!” she shouted, “My name is Kagome Higurashi and YOU would do well to remember that.” She jammed her finger into Sesshoumaru's hard chest.

 

“You are just a woman, a mere mortal, a speck of dust in my world,” Sesshoumaru said, an icy tone embracing his voice, “You will take breaks only when I thin you deserve them, all papers will be on my desk on time, and you WILL do everything I say.”

 

“Yes,” Kagome replied sassingly, “I will do what you say, but only because I need this job for school and I highly respect your father. You on the other hand, I DON'T like, and mark my words, I will make things as difficult as possible for you!”

 

Sesshoumaru watched the door slam behind her.

 

`Oh God, father did give me a difficult bitch. That bastard's probably laughing his head off right now. I need some caffeine.'

 

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

 

Kagome sat at her desk fuming, `The nerve of that guy! Talking down to me like I was his…'

 

“Bitch!” the voice on the intercom growled, “Go get me some coffee!”

 

“You know what,” Kagome yelled into the speaker, “I'm done for the day, so you can go get your own damn coffee! You can go to Hell for all I care!” and with that she was out leaving behind a furious Sesshoumaru.

 

`She will pay for this,' were his last thoughts as he shut his briefcase for the day.

 

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

 

When Kagome reached her apartment, she heard the phone ringing. She ran in dropping her keys and purse on the floor and dodging furniture in the dark.

 

“Damn it!” She yelled as she picked up the phone, stubbing her toe.

 

“Sorry, Kagome is this a bad time?” the voice on the other end of the line asked.

 

“Oh, no Sango,” Kagome said as she fell onto her couch, “I just got in from work and stubbed my toe trying to get the phone.”

 

“Ouch! That sucks!”

 

“Tell me about it, and you know what else sucks? Mr. Takahashi moved me today!”

 

“Moved you?” Sango asked.

 

“Yeah, to be his eldest son's new secretary,” Kagome answered shaking her hair down from its confinement in the bun.

 

“You mean to tell me there's another Takahashi running around?”

 

“Oh, no, not Takahashi, this one is an Itou. I have no idea why the names are different, though Mr. Takahashi had to be telling the truth because the two of them look a lot alike.”

 

“Hmm, tell me what he looks like.”

 

“Well…” Kagome started as she rolled the black knee-highs down her legs, “He's about a head and a half taller then me, long silver hair, broad shoulders. He must work out too, cause when I jabbed him in the chest my finer just bounced back. Sango, I don't think I even made a dent in him! Oh yeah and he has the same golden Takahashi eyes, though much colder.”

 

“Yum,” said Sango, “He sounds heavenly.”

 

“Heavenly? Ha!” Kagome laughed, “The guy is Satan incarnate, I tell you!”

 

“Sure Kagome, look I've got to run meet Miroku,” Sango said as he hung up the phone.

 

`Just keep telling yourself that,' she thought as she walked out the door to meet Miroku.
