"Mmmm," she moaned as she snuggled deeper under her covers, cuddling her fluffy pillow in her sleep. After two weeks for working 10 hour days at the office Kagome was happily looking forward to sleeping in Saturday morning until nearly noon. Her boss was running her ragged with his crazy requests and frequent firings of any assistant she had hired for him over the past month. Her brow wrinkled and all thought of his annoyingly deep voice swept from her mind to be replaced with beautiful thoughts of a week long vacation in Hawaii. Peacefully she drifted into a deep and reviving sleep.
Bzzzzzz, bzzzzzz, bzzzzzz. Bzzzzzz, bzzzzzz, bzzzzzz.
Kagome's eyes remained closed as a hand reached out and groped around her bed table, searching blindly for the offending electronic device. Her fingers brushed against the vibrating item and curled around it, pressing a side button to silence the noise. Her thumb pried the phone open and brought it to her ear.
"Hullo?" she croaked in a disused voice.
"'Gome!!" a loud, deep voice joyously blared in her ear, overcompensating for the noise of the bar, club or rave the person was at. Kagome groaned.
"You gotta be kidding me," she groaned, pushing herself up to a sitting position as she leaned against her headboard. "Why are you calling me?"
"I'm glad you're awake, I didn't want to wake you. I have a very important decision to make and I need.. I need your input."
"What decision?" she asked while glancing at the clock. "Sesshomaru, it's 3:20 in the a.m. What in the world do you need to decide right now that you had to call me and wake me up? I'm sick of your incessant requests and whiney needs and now you're calling me on my days off?"
"Mmmm, you always were so very feisty." She rolled her eyes while brushing her fingers through her hair.
"Sesshomaru-sama, get to the point," she growled.
"Psshbbbpptt, no need for formalities, Kagome!" he slurred. She heard him talking to someone in the background to which a higher voice replied with raucous laughter. Kagome sighed. He was at a bar.
"What are you drinking?" she demanded.
"Drinking?" he hiccupped.
"Sesshomaru," she said sternly, "what are you drinking?"
"Hnmmnn, well, it started with a tequila sunrise and… and then now some delicious shots of tequila," he said. "Kagome… I want you to know," he slurred, "that I love you! You're the best secretary EVER," Sesshomaru blurted into the phone. Kagome cradled her face in her hand.
"Did you learn nothing from the holiday party last year? Don't drink tequila. Ever." She heard her boss start into a deep rendition of 'Ticks', a song he had learned during Karaoke after last year's holiday party. Her stoic boss tolerated country only when he was drinking. "Put your phone away, Sesshomaru, I'm coming to get you."
