Another revision, and again, hopefully it's the last. Anyways, enjoy!

DISCLAIMER: I DO NOT OWN INUYASHA

Ch. 2:

It had already been a week since Kagome had been assistant to Inuyasha, and she was already sick of it. Heck, she was sick of it day 1, but no matter how annoyed she was, it would never compare to the amount of money she was getting paid, and let's just say it was a butt load. So, yes, Kagome hated her new job, her new boss and his stupid play thing/partner, but the pay was damn good, and for now, it was what she needed, so she endured.

Working as Inuyasha's assistant wasn't as bad as she made it out to be, though. She made quick friends with the other office workers, Sango and Kouga, who were the only things that made coming to work bearable. There was also Miroku, the security guy, who was a really funny guy who'd tried to make moves on Sango. He'd just end up slapped every time, though.

It was finally the end of the week, and Kagome had to get ready for yet another day of fulfilling ridiculous tasks for Inuyasha Takashi.

After she left her apartment, she started heading toward the coffee shop, it was now routine for her to get Inuyasha coffee when she came in to work. When she was finally back at Inuyasha's office, she went to go put the coffee on his desk when she found Inuyasha and Kikyo having a make out session in there. They hadn't even noticed she had come in, so she cleared her throat dramatically to get their attention.

"Ahem….uh, here's your coffee, Mr. Takashi" Inuyasha and Kikyo were off each other in an instant.

"Don't you know to knock before coming in to someone's office?!" Inuyasha raged.

"My apologies, Mr. Takahashi. You're usually not here this early in the morning, so I figured-"

"Now that you're here, file these papers for me. And leave my coffee on the table." Inuyasha ignored what I was saying and pushed a box of papers forward so that Kagome would notice to take it.

"Aye aye, captain" Kagome said lamely and walked out the door with the box, closing the door behind her. She made a disgusted face once she was out of the room. Not long after, she found Sango walking to her cubical.

"Morning Kagome" she called to Kagome, then she noticed the papers in I was arms.

"Inuysha's here early, I see"

"Only to suck face with Kikyo"

"Walked in on them?"

"Yup!"

"I think everyone here has done it. They really don't know how to contain themselves"

Kagome rolled her eyes.

"Another week and she'll be gone for a business trip" Sango added hopefully.

"Thank god for that"

"Be careful, Kagome. I've heard Inuyasha has slept with almost everyone of his female assistants." Sango warned.

"That's not surprising, he tried to kiss me on the first day" I said as I began filing these papers.

"Probably because you seemed desperate enough"

"Excuse me?!" I scoffed.

"I'm just sayin'. You look like a grade A workaholic that hasn't had a drink since high school"

I snorted, "I do not"

"In denial"

"Am not!"

"When was the last time you went out and had some fun?" Sango insinuated.

I got really quiet.

"That's it, we're going out tonight"

"No way, I have nothing to wear and-"

"I'll let you borrow something of mine" Sango said simply.

"….fiiiine" I didn't feel like fighting over this.

That night, Sango took me to a really high end club and made me wear some sequence dress that was completely not my style. I even let her do my hair and make-up, for I was her Barbie doll for the time being.

The club was filled to the brim with people, which really didn't appeal to me at all. Sango got me to dance for a little while, but things started to get a little weir d when she met a guy on the dance floor and started dirty dancing with him, so I dipped it to the bar area, where things were surprisingly more mellow.

I seated myself and ordered a drink, since Sango was right when she said I hadn't had a drink in a while. I took this time to check my phone when someone a few chairs over from where I was sitting began taking to me.

"Um…excuse me, but have we met?"Asked a man with long, black hair.

I gave him a confused look, "no, I don't think I have…but you do look familiar…what's your name?"

"Name's Shiro. You got a name, princess?" The way he said princess reminded me of the way Inuyasha said it, and I couldn't help but grimace.

"Not interested" I said coldly to the man, but that only made him move closer.

When he was in the seat right next to me, he began talking to me again, "how do you know if you've never tried" he challenged. I couldn't deal with this anymore, so I got up out of my chair and started leaving without saying another word to the black-haired man. But as I walked by him, he grabbed my wrist and pulled me down into his lap.

"C'mon, baby. Don't be like that"

I was so mad that I elbowed him in the stomach and leaped out of his lap, disgusted.

"I'm not your baby! Leave me alone" I spat out coldly at him, but the man looked more amused than mad. I was so furious at that point that I stormed off, but he was persistent.

After leaving the club, I decided to grab some food at a Chinese place not too far from the club. By the time I was seated and began looking over the menu, a familiar black haired man was seated at the table right next to mine.

"What the hell are you doing here?!" Kagome spat at the man named gave me a devilish smirk that reminded me of a face Inuyasha would make.

"What? I was in the mood for some Chinese" then he nonchalantly opened his menu and started glancing over it.

"You followed me!"

"And why would I do that?" Shiro said, giving all his attention to his menu rather instead of to me.

I was so furious at this point that I banged my fist on the table. "What are you doing here?!"

"I told you, I was in the mood for Chinese" Inuyasha said simply, still looking at his menu.

I wasn't going to have any more of this, so I started getting up from the table, "I'm out of here."

Shiro grabbed her wrist again, "Easy, there, tiger. Aren't you hungry?"

I immediately ripped her arm away from Shiro and stood there for a long moment, just staring him down. He just smirked back at me and said nothing.

When Inuyasha figured I wouldn't be the one to say anything, he took it upon himself to break the tension.

"I swear I won't try anything, just sit back down"

I slowly lowered herself back to her seat and went back to reading the menu, Shiro did the same.

After a long moment of Shiro and I looking over our menus and not saying anything, shiro cleared his throat and tried talking to me again.

"Ahem….so, I never got your name" Shiro said from behind a menu.

"Because you don't need to know it" I replied coldly.

"C'mon, you know mine. It's only fair" he whimpered.

I only ignored him.

"Don't be like that, I just want to get to know you better"

"Why? So you can charm your way into my pants?"

"No. I mean, at first, but-"

"You're a pig!"

"Can you let me talk for two seconds?!"

"I have nothing to listen to from men like you!"

"What the hell?! What did I ever do to you?!"

"Do you not remember the way you treated me back at the club?! Like I was some girl you were going to get lucky off of tonight! Like some girl you could take advantage of! I am NOT that girl!"

"Okay, I admit…I admit that at first that was what I was thinking. It was a stupid guy thought, I know, but the way you totally resisted me, there was more there then just "some girl" ….and I knew I had to chase after you….I wanted to get to know you better."

"Is that what you tell every girl?"

"Goddammit Kagome, I-"

My eyes grew wide with surprise, "How did you know my name?"

"I…." Shiro was at a loss for words.

"We do know each other from somewhere, don't we?"

"Yeah….we were class mates in high school….I was kind of a nobody, and you never even noticed me. I thought I might have had a chance with you tonight…"

"…so you tried getting in my pants…..that is so bullshit. If you would have just come fucking talked to me like a normal human being, I would have let you buy me a drink or I could have let you dance with me or something!"

"Well…..we're talking like normal human beings now, are we not?"

"….fuck you, I'm out of here!"

I got up and left the restaurant, but Shiro was hot on my heels.

When we were outside the restaurant, Shiro caught me by the wrist and gently pulled her to him. Before I had a chance to respond, he captured my lips, placing a light kiss upon them and then pulled back. I was completely paralyzed and didn't know what to do. My mind was telling me to hit him hard and run away, but my body was telling me otherwise. When I said nothing, he returned his lips back to mine. At first, it was a gentle kiss, something that I could resist, but he began to deepen the kiss, and soon enough, I was kissing him back. As soon as I began kissing back, he pulled away, leaving me only wanting more. Teasing me and playing with my morals.

"You asshole" I said breathlessly.

Shiro just chuckled and took a step back.

"You have no idea how long I've been waiting to do that"

I was about to slap him when his hand stopped mine.

"Kagome, I don't want to hurt you. Just please, here me out!"

I slowly lowered her arm. "You have ten seconds" Kagome spat out bitterly.

"I'm catching a plane early tomorrow for a business trip, but I'll be back here in exactly a month. Please come back here exactly a month from today and let me buy you dinner….I just want to talk"

"….fine….what time?"

"6pm!"

I rolled her eyes but agreed bitterly.

After the time was agreed, they started heading their separate ways, all up until Shiro realized that I was without a car.

"Where the hell do you think you're going?"

"Back to my house, dumbass"

"You're going to walk….back to your place by yourself….at 2 in the morning…."

"No, I'm calling a cab!"

"No way am I leaving you here to catch a cab, get in the car"

"I am NOT getting in the car with you, for all I know, you could be a creeper"

"Just trust me"

I would have liked to argue just then, but something inside of her told her that this man was not a threat, so she got in the car.

Not long after, Shiro was dropping me off at my apartment.

I undid my seatbelt, got out of the car, and closed the door behind me. When I was about to turn and head home, I turned toward the car and tapped on the window. Shiro rolled it down and leaned over.

"I just wanted to say thank you for the ride, Shiro"

It wasn't until then that I realized that their faces were only inches from each other.

"You are welcome, Kagome….goodnight"

It looked as if he was going to kiss me again, but he never did. Even so, his eyes never left mine.

"Night" I said breathlessly.

Shiro gave me one last look before driving off and I stood there where he left her until he was completely gone. Like some idiot.
