Chapter one

Winter Break at Tashio Manor

"You sure I can stay the whole two weeks," Kagome Higirashi asked her best friend Rin Tashio.

Rin closed her locker and gave Kagome a duh stare, "Of course you can my family loves you and plus we don't want you staying home by yourself with your parents out of town."

Kagome leaned back against the row of green lockers. Life had been so different now that her dad got that new job two years ago and now him and her mother are out of town all the time. She could understand them not being able to make other holidays but this was Christmas, the time for families to come together. Kagome didn't mind staying with Rin for two weeks the loved the Tashios they were the best. Inu and Mika Tashio treated Kagome like one of the family, Inuyasha, Rins older brother by a year, was in the same grade as them because of some fight last year and was held back. Inuyasha use to have a crush on Kagome but Kagome turned him down and now he is dating Sango, Her other best friend. There is also Sesshoumaru but Kagome hadn't seen him in years, he was abroad studying to be and engineer, he is actually a senior now he will be done with school in a few months and be back here.

"Oh Yeah Kagome by the way Sesshoumaru is come on the 23rd," Rin said as she and Kagome started towards the exit to start their vacation.

"What? Really? Why?"

"Sesshoumaru will be home in a few days. He actually graduated early and is coming home to stay and join the family biz."

"Dang I wish you would have told me sooner I bought all your gifts already but not his. I guess I could buy it this after noon."

"Or not its Sesshoumaru I'm pretty sure he didn't get anyone anything I mean hello sister here and hes been gone 4 years not a single letter, or phone call."

Kagome looked at Rin with a smile, "Just because he's not nice doesn't mean we shouldn't be to him. So you got to help me what do you think he will like?"

"Ummm? The stick removed from his as, no wait I think that was my Christmas wish. Yeah it was I don't know what he would want."

Kagome laughed, "Rin you are so mean I think I have an idea so lets go by the Village."

Kagome jumped in the passenger seat of Rin's car as she jumped in the driver seat.

The Village was a big fancy strip mall they had everything, food, electronics, clothes, even porn shops. Rin parked at the west end, and her and Kagome headed in.

"So what did you want to get him," Rin asked, touching things on the counter as she went by?

"Come on its over here," Kagome pulled in into a shop called Feudal Era, "I saw it last week and thought it would be perfect for him." Kagome pulled Rin up to the thing she was talking about.

"wow that's really cool if he don't like it can I have it."

Kagome laughed, "If he don't sure but I'm pretty sure he will it just seems so him."

"Yeah I'm getting that vibe, and its not good I don't think he should have it with all of us there like in the house with him."

"Rin calm down he ain't gonna do nothing to none of us its just there it be looked at not used."

"You tell him that when one of us makes him mad." Rin shuttered, "Wrap the shit and lets go."

"Yeah yeah yeah I'm coming."

Kagome just knew that Sesshoumaru would love the gift but she really hoped that Rin was wrong and wouldn't use it on all of us. No he wont on us maybe Inuyasha but not everyone else. Kagome couldn't stop smiling she was so excited about this Christmas. She had never told anyone before but she really like Sesshoumaru but last time he was here she was just a little girl now she is a woman and ready to take that man on.

Rin pulled in her drive way and helped Kagome get all her clothes she would need for the next two weeks.

"Since you going to be staying two weeks dad thought it would be a good idea to let you use the guest room by mine, instead of just sleeping with me like you always do."

"Yeah that's ok thanks." Kagome had to fight the smile that was forming, she would be in the room by Rin's which is also right beside Sesshoumaru's.

"Lets go get you settled then it should be time for dinner."

Kagome followed Rin to the second floor and into the west wing where all the bedroom were.

It was dinner time and Kagome and Rin where seated at the table when Inu came in.

"Hey Mr. Tashio."

"Kagome dear how many times must I tell you to call me Inu," Inu said sitting down at the head of the table.

"Just one more time like always sir."

Mika Inu's third wife and Rin's mother sat to the left of him and to the right is where Sesshoumaru would sit of he were here, Inuyasha sat next to him and Rin was seated next to Mika and I next to Rin.

"So whats for dinner tonight," Inu asked looking over at Mika.

"Well fried pork chops, macaroni, green beans, fried potatoes, and homemade biscuits."

"That sound amazing when can we dig in?" Asked Inuyasha as he took his seat.

"In just a moment let me bring all of it out." Mika said.

Inu turned to Kagome, "So Kagome how did you like the room?"

Kagome smiled, "It was beautiful thank you so much."

"It was a pleasure my dear but I must tell you that there is a plumber going to be her the day after tomorrow on the 22nd to fix your shower so until then you may use Sesshoumaru's he wont be here for a few more days."

"Thank you that's fine."

The next two days were pure bliss and Kagome was so excited that Sesshoumaru was coming home tomorrow she couldn't wait to see him. Rin had already passed out and Kagome went to her room for the night to read she wasn't tired. About an hour later Kagome decided to take a bath, but her shower still seemed to be not working the guys had to cancel today and would be there bright and early in the morning, so Kagome grabbed her bathing stuff and entered Sesshoumaru's room.

Kagome never got tired of seeing it there was so many thing yet they were all well organized. On the outer wall was to big glass doors with windows on either side that lead out to a beautiful balcony that over looked the garden. In the middle between the doors and windows set a king size for poster bed. That has silver blankets and pillow and black silk sheets. To the right of that set an entire wall of book shelves behind a huge dark oak desk with only a computer and lamp residing on it. Across from the bad was the door that Kagome came through that lead into the hallway and a big flat screen TV on the wall with a slender in width but long table under it and a silver couch in front of it. To the left of the bad was a double door entrance into the closet and another door that lead into the bathroom, between the doors on the wall was many ancient looking weapons.

Kagome entered the bathroom with a sigh of contemptment when she saw the huge tub. A dream come true. Kagome ran a bath then slip down into the warm water laying her head back.

Sesshoumaru sighed when he entered his room. He was so tired, it had been a long flight but he got home sooner than he thought he would. He would just take a shower and go to sleep she the family n the morning.

Sesshoumaru laid his luggage at the end of his bed went over to his night stand and took of his watch. He slipped out of his shoes and unbuttoned his shirt moving towards the bathroom. Sesshoumaru opened the door and was greeted with quite the sight.

Sesshoumaru stared at the bottom working his way up long tan legs, and a tiny waist, flat tummy, and beautifully large breasts. Long wavy blue black hair cascading down to about mid back, slender neck with a round face, pink lips and the bluest eyes he had ever seem. Plus all of this body was dripping wet from just having a bath. Sesshoumaru could barely breathe at the sight this woman made. It made his heart race and his erection strain against is slacks. Sesshoumaru didn't know what to do so he just turned around and left the room before he took her there on the floor

"Sesshoumaru?"
