InuYasha Fan Fiction ❯ Taking over me ❯ prolouge ( Prologue )

Kagome's POV

RING! RING! Her alarm clock rang through the room. Kagome rolled over and waited for her eyes to focus on the numbers from her digital alarm clock. Six thirty she groaned and sat up. The sun was shining through her blinds that were not quite shut. She looked around her room with what seemed like foreign eyes taking in her surroundings. Her room unlike Sango or Rin's was painted a lavender color from the previous owner but it suited her. Walking downstairs to the kitchen she and her friends shared she started the tea that she was sure in no time would be gone as soon as everyone got up.

 

Taking her cup of tea to her room she began typing on her laptop while sitting on her balcony waiting for the sun to rise. She loved the mornings it was her time to sit an think about what was going on lately and sort through herself and her surroundings.

 

She only had two hours before she needed to get ready for work and only one hour before one of her house mates got up for her own job. Sango would go down stairs and work out for the most of her morning then go to work to work out some more while teaching some students the basics of Judo. Rin would get up and laze around or go out until some time around six before heading out to the bar called Innovations. She herself would get up two hours before her own job to sit and enjoy the mornings over a cup of tea and a blueberry muffin.

 

This for them had become the morning ritual. Sometimes when she was feeling particularly down, she would go for an intense workout with Sango. But that had never really been her thing. Today she was typing up the highlights of the latest case that Toki Jin law firm had acquired. The reason why to be frank was that Sesshomaru was the best damn lawyer out there, despite the years being in the business which only a little over three. Sesshomaru started it right after he graduated college at twenty four. His family was considered very wealthy. When his parents had died they left everything to him and his, as she was informed by her women co-workers, dead sexy brother. She had never actually met him. Her brow narrowed as she tried to remember his name. Inuyasha? Yes Inuyasha that's it. The only thing that could have made her feel like she had met him was everyone talked bout him. His name was a constant on every ones tongue. Evidently he works at a Judo center where a few people felt compelled to go. Mostly the women folk of her area would flaunt about how his seductive and charming smile could make any women feel weak in her knees. Just thinking about how arrogant this man probably was, made her think about how she would love to prove them wrong and mind you she hasn't even met this guy.

 

She was mused from her thoughts as she began to hear the furious pounding of Sango beginning her workout in the basement downstairs blaring the latest cd she had bought. This she took as her cue to get ready for work. Reluctantly she got up from the day bed on the veranda where she had been sitting non-chalantly typing. She stepped inside and immediately wished she had a pair of ear plugs.

 

Sango's POV

Her morning had begun as always and hour work out. It was all she could do for now to keep in shape. That is apart from her work. Of course working at the Tetsusaiga Judo Center was her idea of the perfect job. She rarely ever missed a day of work. Saying that she loved her job was an understatement. Sure it has its moments but most places do, most of them occurring because the women only came to crowd around for a peek at her boss.

 

After thoroughly showering and walking to work she found that today would be no different. Her usuals were changed and ready for another intense practice. There were a few but hardly anyone lasted long before they decided that all the hustle and bustle wasn't worth it to see the great Inuyasha himself. Plus rarely any of the women stuck around long enough to make it to his class anyway. The people in his class were hand picked by her to move on and further their studies with them. Her job was simple she only had to teach the basics of Judo with each class for about two to three hours each day. God knows that if he had to teach all of them he wouldn't make it without killing at least one. He was known for his temper. But women felt that only added to his sexual appeal. The angrier he got the more stars the women had in their eyes. She became immediately aware of a few newbies in her class. She smirked at the knowledge that they probably wouldn't last ten minutes. She had five sessions today with a fifteen minute break in between. She watched her pupils while scoping out the capabilities of others to decide whether or not to move them up to the advanced judo class with her boss. She currently had seven people out of the fifteen today who pushed through their workout without a whim or cry. Only the strong were allowed to move on. Seeing that today would be no different than the others with this particular class she closed her eyes and rested her head on the coolness of the concrete wall behind her while listening to the class in the background of her musings.

 

Inuyasha's POV

Today was another day of teaching his class of the village idiots. He just broke up with his girlfriend of three years and just happened to be thoroughly pissed. She had been expecting marriage and a happy life full of children and dreams built on sand. He wasn't ready for any of it. His day began waking up and getting into a fight over why he couldn't take her out to dinner tonight. His thoughts went back to earlier.

“Morning hun.” She had said wearing her favorite floral sundress.

“Mornin'” He replied back gruffly.

“I was thinking my parents are in town and they haven't seen you in months. They ask about you an awful lot and I just figured we could go out to dinner and meet them.”

“No I don't have time for that.” He had replied because his mind was on his lessons for today, two in the morning one at nine and one at two and one late class at seven tonight. `What is with her lately all of a sudden she wants to go to dinner all of the time. She has even taken to pulling me into every jewelry store and bombarded me with all of the jewelry she likes.'

He had gotten an evident look on his face that showed he wasn't listening.

She had thrown her hands up in frustration. He caught a sent of anger from her to him. “What?” he managed.

“You don't even listen to me anymore.”

“What are you talking about? Of course I listen to you.” He said this and new it was a lie.

Her eyes had flared for a moment before she lashed out. “What am I doing here then. I thought we would be married by now. Heck I am getting nagged now everyday from m y mom on how to get you to realize what I want. And all you ever have to say about any thing is `feh'.”

“Feh.” He said as if it wasn't just proven true.

This time she yelled. “See you just did it again. I was hopeing to have children by now.”

He froze at those words. “Chi-i-ill-dren?”

“Yes children but I can see that I have wasted my time on you. You, Inuyasha, will never be a man and accept responsibility. I thought we had something. I thought our relationship was ready to go to the next level.”

“Well you thought wrong. Nor am I now or will I ever be ready for those monsters called chi-ill-dren.”

Just thinking about making kids with Kikyo made him shudder. He would never have kids. Somewhere in his thinking he shook his head and muttered a discrete `feh'.

He was walking still in a trance when he ran into a small body knocking her over.

“Sorry.” Kagome muttered as he helped her up. `Damn now my dress suit is all dirty. What will Sesshomaru think when she shows all ratty.' After dusting off her dress skirt she looked up into the most beautiful golden eyes she had ever seen. She was rendered of her own words.

“It's fine. Are you okay?”

“Yes I'm quite alright.” She said finding her voice. He had the most beautiful silver hair she had ever seen and two cute little ears on the top of his head. She immediately recognized him as hanyou.

He couldn't take his eyes off this raven haired beauty, her eyes even more tantalizing. The deep chocolate brown flecked with bits of gold.

A bit flustered because he was staring she turned and started to retrieve her purse she lost somewhere when she fell. With the color still in her cheeks she felt his eyes on her back.

`Wow this has to be the most beautiful woman I have ever laid my eyes on.' Just the scent of her roses sent him tumbling into lust. Shaking his thoughts from his head he reminded himself he had to get to work and he had just broken up his girlfriend of three years. But why didn't that bother him. He came to the conclusion that she never meant anything to him. This he laughed at. Sure the sex had been great but she never really meant anything to him. He started laughing hysterically realizing he had just wasted three years of his life on a girl he didn't even care about in that way.

When she found it she turned the color out of her cheeks “And what may I ask is so damn funny?”

At this he began laughing harder and fell to the ground on his knees. A little embarrassed that this hunk of man or should I say hanyou was laughing at her. When she felt she couldn't bare the humiliation of it any longer she turned to walk away but stopped as a hand enclosed around her ankle.

“No I'm sorry.” He said between fits of laughter. “I just realized I have wasted three years of my life on a woman I never have and never will care about.”

“And I fit into this how because I don't find it all too funny myself.”

This time looked up at her with seriousness on his face. “Because when I seen how pretty you are I compared you to my ex and thought about how I never really thought about how pretty she was or how I never cared about how she looked. She was looking for marriage and I was just looking for a good time. Oh and I never did catch your name.”

“That would be because I never gave it to you.” She said this as he rose from the ground. She then eyed him suspiciously. Something about the way he acted seemed all to familiar. “You first.”

“But I asked you first.”

“So what if you want to know you will tell me yours first.”

“Inuyasha.”

She froze at this could it be that she was finally laying eyes on the great Inuyasha that so many of her co-workers told her of. Their descriptions of his beauty had nothing on this handsome hanyou.

“You still there?” He questioned once he seen her eyes glaze over in thought.

She shook her head and muttered a, “Huh?”

“Your name?”

“Kagome.” For some reason it fit her. But what he really wanted to know was what she was thinking about.

She looked at her watch and muttered a shit before saying, “I got to go. I'm late”

“Wait.” He said slightly walking a bit faster to catch up to her. “I made you late let me offer you a ride.”

“In what your car in your back pocket?”

`Cocky huh' he thought to himself. “No on my back plus I am faster than any car. Just tell me where you need to go.”

“It is probably out of your way anyway so I guess goodbye.'

“Where is it?”

“Toki Jin lawfirm.” His features stiffened at that comment.

“Ok hop on.” He turned to accommodate her. And before she could object he had pulled her on his back running faster than the Olympic medalists she watched every year on television.

“You really don't have to this.” She said from behind his head and he cocked and ear toward her. When he jumped from a bridge she snuggled in closer to him hiding her face in his hair.

He liked the feel of her on his back.

She looked up to notice his ears they attracted her and before she knew what she was doing she was stroking them she swore she heard a rumbling purr from him before he stopped ferociously fast.

Her heart still racing he lowered her to the ground in front of Toki Jin lawfirm.

“Thankyou.” She managed as he turned to meet her heated gaze.

“No problem.”

She turned and walked into the building. All the while he watched the healthy swing of her hips as she pushed open the door to his brother's establishment.
