Strictly Business

Ch 2: Home Again

 

Kagome woke up to the annoying beeping of her alarm clock. She turned over, grunting, to push the button off, in the process falling off her bed,

 

“Oof! Ow!” she said, rubbing her backside, “talk about a wake up call!”

She slowly made her way to the bathroom grunting about `hating mornings'.

 

There was suddenly a loud ringing in her head, “Huh?” she said poking her head out of her bathroom, toothbrush in mouth, “I thought I turned off my alarm!”

 

It took her a moment to realize that the ringing wasn't in her head, it was her phone. She quickly ran over and quickly picked up the phone, “Qui?”

 

“Sweetheart? Kagome dear, its mommy!”

 

“Mom?”

 

“Hi dear! Did I wake you? You sound tired! Are you eating? How's school? And how's that one boy, what's his name…”

 

“Mom! One thing at a time! No you didn't wake me up, I'm tired bc I just woke up. School is going fine, I'm eating and his name is Koga!” Kagome took a deep breath and walked over to her balcony. There was a beautiful view of Paris, now that the sun was beginning to rise and hitting the Eiffel tower giving the city a magical look. She moved there just after finishing high school, it had been a year that she had been living there.

 

“Kagome? Are you listening?”

“Uh yea sure mom, what did you say?”

 

“You won't believe who was in the paper this week!”

 

“I bet I can guess.” Kagome mumbled.

 

“Inuyasha!” Her mom said ignoring her, “Inuyasha was in the papers! You remember Inuyasha of course!”

 

“Of course, no matter how hard I try I can forget that annoying mutt!”

 

“Now Kagome, be nice, I didn't raise you to be impolite! Now look outside your door, I sent a copy of the paper to your flat!”

 

Kagome sighed and opened the door, on the floor was a paper and sure enough there was a picture of Inuyasha looking very cozy with Paris Hilton.

 

“Now,” Mrs. Higurashi started, “I don't know who that girl is but I'm sure she's just a friend, I think.”

 

“A very close friend,” Kagome says seeing Inuyasha's hand on her Paris's ass.

 

Mrs. Higurashi sighed, “So dear how are you? And that young man's name is Koga?” Mrs. Higurashi says quickly changing the subject.

 

“Yes mom, you remember Koga, you met him when you first came to visit me!”

 

“Oh! You mean the cute one with the bright blue eyes! You're still with that boy?”

 

“Yes mom, I am.”

 

“So… is this relationship serious?”

 

“Huh?”

 

“Is it going anywhere?”

 

“Going anywhere? Oh SHIT!”

 

“KAGOME HIGURASHI! WATCH THAT MOUTH!”

 

“Oh sorry mom, it's just that I remembered that Koga is coming over this morning, he said he was going to take me on a picnic.”

 

“A picnic? Isn't that romantic?” Mrs. Higurashi paused as if to be gathering up the courage to say something, “Kagome I need to ask you something, now be honest with your mother, I'm getting old and…”

 

“Mom! I get it, I'll be honest!”

 

“Ok well, do you love this boy?”

 

“What?!” Kagome says being taken off guard.

 

“Don't lie to me, do you love him? Kagome this is important!” She says with urgency in her voice.

 

“Love? Yes, I mean, no I mean, mom I got to go, Koga is going to be here any minute!”

 

Kagome quickly hung up the phone and sank down to the couch, “Love? Do I love Koga?”

 

Her thoughts were interrupted by a knock on the door.

 

Kagome got up and quickly opened the door.

 

“Mademoiselle,” came a husky voice, “these are for you.”

 

A dozen red roses landed in Kagome's arms and the man stepped into the flat.

 

“Koga! They're beautiful! Let me go put these in water!”

 

Kagome soon came back finding her boyfriend sitting on the couch. She crept quickly and was about to jump on him when he turned and grabbed her.

 

“Didn't think you could fool a demon could you?”

 

Kagome laughed as he pulled her onto his lap, “Aw you're no fun!”

 

“Fun? I could smell and hear you the whole time, now if you're looking for fun, I can do that too!”

 

Kagome laughed and kissed him lightly on the lips, “Thank you for my flowers.”

 

“If I'm going to get a kiss every time I give you flowers, I'm going to start doing that everyday!”

 

“Hey! You know we kiss more than that!”

 

“I know, I'm just teasing! And to prove my point.” Koga quickly leaned in capturing her lips in a soft kiss, “As much as I really want to keep doing this we have a picnic to get to!”

 

Kagome laughed and got up, “Your right! Let me just grab my purse!”

 

15 minutes later they were walking hand in hand in one of the beautiful parks of Paris. They walked quietly watching the ducks in the lake and appreciating the June sunshine.

 

Koga began to tense; Kagome could feel it by how he tightened the hold on her hand. She was about to ask what was the matter when she became speechless. Just past a large willow tree, a beautiful picnic had been set up, complete with a large picnic basket and red and white cloth.

 

Koga smiled at her and pulled her along, “Come on! I'm starving!”

 

They quickly sat and started eating an assortment of things from different fruits to pâtés to the wonderful wine. They both sat in quiet appreciating they're surroundings and each other.

 

Kagome began to think, she was lucky to have Koga, he was a wonderful man. His father was one of the most powerful men in Europe making his the cities most eligible bachelor. She had met him on the street one day, he almost ran her over with his motorbike, then feeling bad offered to take her to lunch, and that's how it all began. Koga was great he was handsome, talented and he, he loved her.

 

Kagome broke out of her thoughts when Koga grabbed her hand, “Kagome?”

 

“Uh hu?” she says smiling at him.

 

“I've, uh, I've been thinking a lot,”

 

“About what?” Kagome asked innocently.

 

“Well about us.”

 

“Us?”

 

“Yes us, and I've been thinking this over in my head a lot and you know I love you right?”

 

Kagome nodded, `Oh no,' she says to herself, `he's not going not going to ask me to marry him is he! I love him, I think, I mean I do, I mean… I don't know.”

 

“Kagome?”

 

She turned her head to him watching as his picked up her hand in his, “Kagome will you…”

 

RING! RING!

 

“Uh…” Koga says a bit startled at the interruption.

 

Kagome blinked a few times before realizing that her phone was ringing, “I'm sorry, it's my mom, it must be important.”

 

Koga nodded a bit disappointed as Kagome got up to answer the phone.

 

“Mom? Hi, what's wrong?”

 

“Honey it's your father, he's not well.”

 

Those words struck Kagome like a bolt of lightning making her quickly fall to her knees.

 

Koga quickly ran over to her, “Kagome! Kagome! What's the matter! Kagome! What's wrong?”

 

Kagome shook her head while her mother's words still echoed in her head, “Kagome it's you father, he's had a heart attack, he's in the ICU. We need you, come home, please honey come home!”

 

Kagome shook her head again relieving it from her mother's voice; she quickly got up and started walking.

 

“Kagome! Hey Kagome, wait!” Koga says running after her, “where are you going?”

 

“Oh Koga,” Kagome says with tears in her eyes, “I'm sorry for ruining everything, but I have to go, I have to go!”

 

“Go where? Why?”

 

“I'm sorry I have to go!”

 

“Where?”

 

“Back home, back to the States.”

 

That was 2 hours ago, now Kagome was sitting in one of her families private planes that her mom had sent to pick her up.

 

“Ms. Higurashi,” the pilot's voice came through the intercom, “we'll be arriving in New York in about 10 minutes.”

 

“Thank you James.” She replied in a sad tone, “this is not the reason that I wanted to come back home.” She quietly looked out the window and watched the New York skyline pass her, “home again”
