Chapter Two:
Camera

“I must have been a horrible person in a past life,” Kagome growled to herself as she roughly yanked the keys out of the ignition of her car.

After her and Sesshomaru had stayed around long enough for Miroku to go over Kagome’s contract and Sesshomaru’s bonus for taking personal time to ‘teach’ her. Sesshomaru had scribbled directions to his apartment comlex on a slip of paper, handed it to her and took off.

It was because of his tutoring that she had to drive from the studio to his apartment complex. Nervously fingering the keys connected to a silver chain, Kagome couldn’t help but question just what he would have to teach her and just how he would go about it.

‘If he so much as touches me I’ll make him the only male porn star without a penis,’ Kagome hissed to herself as she opened the door of her car. As she walked to the elevator an unwelcome recollection on what little she saw of the filming.

Pressing the button of the elevator Kagome began to speculate that it might not be so bad; if he just had to lay hands on her in order to teach her some finer points…it would only be for business purposes…right? Nothing wrong with that…perfectly innocent in fact.

A frown marred her face at the thought, “I am being utterly ridiculous,” Kagome muttered to herself just as the elevator door opened. Stepping out Kagome reached into the right pocket of her jeans and pulled out a small slip of worn paper. Sesshomaru had scribbled down not only the directions to the complex, but the number to his apartment as well since he had gone ahead of her to take care of…something.

Wandering down the hallway Kagome paused when she found the apartment number she had been searching for. A small fist moved to knock on the door, hesitated in mid-air before finally making contact with the door. For a moment Kagome hoped that he hadn’t gotten home yet, but then the door opened.
“You’re late,” he said curtly, opening the door wide enough for her to slip inside.

Kagome moved to make a smart remark only to be silenced struck dumb by how spacious his apartment was, tasteful as well.

‘Oh my god, forget my reservations, if making adult films pays this good I am staying,’ Kagome thought for a flitting minute as Sesshomaru closed and locked the front door behind them.

The ‘clang’ of the deadbolt to the door jarred the young woman from being in awe of her surroundings. Turning on her heel Kagome suddenly felt an impending sense of dread. Again she recalled the performance of him and Kagura-san in the studio.

‘But he wouldn’t do that with me…would he?’

Noticing the rather terrified glance Kagome gave him along with her flushed cheeks Sesshomaru coldly brushed passed her, “Don’t look at me like that.” was his only remark as he entered a different room of the apartment.

“Don’t look at you like what?” Kagome asked, her tone carrying a edge of anger yet to have reached it’s full potential.

“You were staring at me as if you honestly thought I would eat you alive,” Sesshomaru stated stopping in front of a door. Before he grasped the doorknob he glanced over his shoulder, “Stay here, I’ll be back in a minute.”


Standing in the middle of the hallway Kagome began to become bored. She restlessly tapped her foot against the carpet, looked at the decorations on the wall, which included two silk paintings which looked antique almost, a wall scroll painting of a mountain along with some other paintings.

‘Either he actually appreciates art or he’s trying to impress someone,’ Kagome deducted, going into curious mode.

She knew it was a bad habit, but every time she visited someone’s home for the first time it was impossible for her to resist the temptation to snoop. This is why the small table, which had a picture frame perched on it, held so much interest to her. Careful fingers slightly tilted the picture frame up so that she could get a better look at it without actually picking up the frame.

It was a photograph of a little girl, couldn’t be older than four or five years old. She was wearing a white kimono with orange blossom pattern and had short black hair coupled with amber eyes. A little mouth was spread into a wide grin as one of her pudgy hands held up a goldfish in a plastic bag. As questions of who this girl was and how she was connected to the resident of this apartment, began to run though her mind Kagome suddenly gasped when she felt a hand grasp hers.

Jerking her hand away Kagome turned so abruptly that the table shook. Sesshomaru glared down at her, his hand still on the picture frame quickly turned it down onto the table top, but his golden gaze never left her.

Kagome felt a shutter trickle down her spine, as if someone had just poured cold liquid over her head. She had crossed some sort of unspoken boundary and he was angry about it. The young woman winced, expecting some strong words from her ‘mentor’ instead he placed a stack of DVD cases into her open hands.

Blinking Kagome opened her mouth to question but Sesshomaru’s glare silenced her, leaving him to speak.

“Take these home and watch them. You are free to go now.”

Kagome gingerly edged around the table, paused in heading back through the hallway.

“But you were supposed to teach me…” she began.

Without even turning to look at her Sesshomaru stated plainly, “I can not be expected to ‘teach’ you anything if you can’t even bare to ‘watch’.”

“I can’t be seen taking these home!” Kagome protested.

“If this profession disgusts you, then you shouldn’t have taken the offer in the first place!” Sesshomaru snapped.

Kagome had to bite her tongue, which she later viewed as a mistake since it left Sesshomaru with an opening.

“You know what disgusts me? Little girls, who think they can act, walk into the studio believing that they will be the next big star just because they have ‘good connections’.”

Anger boiling inside of her Kagome glared up at Sesshomaru, her free hand clenched at her side, “I disgust you?!”

An silver eyebrow arched, “I never said it was you specifically, but now that you mention, yes. I can’t stand upstart children like you who are so starry eyed that they can’t face reality…”

Smack!

Kagome didn’t even recall moving let alone dropping the DVD cases to the floor to deliver a hearty smack to Sesshomaru’s right cheek.

Trembling Kagome quickly withdrew her hand, shamefully her eyes fell to the ground. Tense silence fell as Kagome felt nothing more than turning tail and running back to her car. Forget the studio, forget Miroku, just pretend none of this ever happened.

Sesshomaru was the first to move. Bending down he picked up the DVD’s and placed, or rather shoved, them back into her hands.

Not even daring to speak let alone argue, Kagome quickly walked out of the hallway, then the door, the elevator and into her car long before her whirling mind could catch up with her legs.

Once inside her car Kagome picked up one of the cases only to quickly deposit the whole lot in her passenger seat, quickly covering them up with her purse. On the drive to her own apartment Kagome wondered how she could sneak them all inside without her boyfriend finding them.

A fond sort of smile crossed Kagome’s lips as her thoughts turned to her boyfriend Inuyasha and somehow the incident was eased from her mind.

Meanwhile the door to Sesshomaru’s apartment was opened again, only this time on the other end was the little girl from the photograph, only it had been almost a year since the picture had been taken. The girl slipped off her shoes onto the mat while behind her an elderly woman followed behind her.

Hearing the door open Sesshomaru walked to the front of the apartment only reaching the living room before something…or rather someone latched onto his right leg. Looking down he was greeted with a wide grin from the little girl.

The corners of his lips twitched into a smirk as he gently smoothed her dark hair back in place. To the rest of the world he was cold and aloof; but when it came to his daughter stony expressions and pretenses weakened.

“Good afternoon Rin. Did you and Mrs. Kaede have fun at the park?”

The girl vigorously nodded her head, “Yep. Mrs. Kaede even gave me some ice-cream!”

When she said that Sesshomaru noticed a smudge of brown on her left cheek, his finger moved to wipe the stain away, “Let me guess…the ice cream was chocolate.”

The girl gasped, “How did you know that?”

“Because I know everything,” Sesshomaru said seriously, but even Rin could tell that he was just teasing her.

“Now go put up your school things then we’ll go out and get some dinner.”

“Alright!” Rin exclaimed as she released Sesshomaru’s leg and bolted down the hallway to her room.

Kaede chuckled to herself while Sesshomaru reached into his back pocket for his wallet.

“I’ll re-pay you for the ice cream…”

“You can try but I won’t take it,” Kaede said sincerely, “ I don’t have any grandchildren of my own, so it’s actually a treat for me to spoil Rin. I was worried when you called so suddenly. Did something go wrong at work?”

Sesshomaru merely shrugged, “Not particularly…but it was work related in a way, which is why I thought it best to have Rin stay with you for an hour or so.”

Kaede sighed, “You know what you need Sesshomaru?”

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes, he knew what was coming, but before he could speak to cut her off Kaede began her rant.

“You need a wife, and in the same sense Rin needs a mother.”

“I thank you for your concern Kaede but Rin and I are perfectly fine…”

“Oh sure you are.” Kaede said in patronizing tone of one with many years behind her and wisdom beyond those years, “To Rin, you are her Earth, Sun, and Moon. However; as she gets older she’s going to need someone to be an example as to how to be a woman. And I don’t think you would want to rough out those teenage years on your own, especially when she starts dating…”

“Rin will never ‘date’,” Sesshomaru stated strongly, as if by sheer will he would prevent the inevitable.

Again Kaede chuckled, “Whatever you say. I should be getting back home now,” the old woman said as she slipped on her shoes and exited out of the front door.

At that moment Rin closed the door to her room and moved to walk back down the hallway but then she spotted her picture facing down on it’s table. Curious the girl picked up the frame and placed it upright again before bounding off.


A giggle came from Kagome’s lips as two strong hands mercilessly ran down her ticklish side. Lips lightly grazed against the side of her neck, placing open kisses along the column of skin. Playfully Kagome tapped the shoulder of her boyfriend.

“Inuyasha, stop that! I’ve got to make dinner and I can’t do that if you’re all over me.”
An annoyed sounding grunt greeted her as the head buried against her shoulder ignored her protest and lightly nipped on her neck. A soft moan came from Kagome, who’s hand almost dropped her stirring spoon right into the boiling pot.

His hands moved lower from around her waist, resting on her hips as fingers moved to unzip her jeans. Kagome placed her hands on his, she turned her head to look back at him, her voice holding a teasing tone.

“We really should stop otherwise the rice is going to over boil.”

“Screw the rice,” Inuyasha stated before nipping at her right ear.

“No what you really meant was ‘screw me’.” Kagome said, her face blushing a little.

The man with long black hair grinned, “My thoughts exactly. So you take the rice off of the stove and…”

“But what about dinner?” Kagome asked, “I don’t know about you Inuyasha but I am as hungry as a bear.”

“We can order in,” Inuyasha said as his fingers teased with the zipper of her jeans, carefully pulling it down inch by inch.

“Alright, alright, I give up,” Kagome said with a giggle as she turned and kissed him soundly on the lips, as her hands pried his away from her pants.

Eventually the rice was taken off the stove, they had finally made it into Kagome’s bedroom, which was an amazing feat in itself since they had began another lip-locking session just as they stumbled into the room. At some point Inuyasha had lost his shirt and Kagome had all but tripped over her own jeans. Reluctantly they parted, both gasping for air, recovering from their heated kiss.

Kagome shivered when she felt a hand move underneath her t-shirt, her head tilted back only to gasp when she saw the porn DVD’s that Sesshomaru had ‘given’ to her were laying innocently on her bed. With Inuyasha distracted by trying to remove her bra from underneath her shirt Kagome saw this as an opportunity to hide the DVD’s. She reached behind her straining, quickly she yanked down the offensive objects from her bed and once they were on the floor kicked them under her bed. Breathing a sigh of relief the young woman suddenly remembered something.

“Inuyasha,” Kagome purred as she gently pulled his hands from out of her shirt.

“What is it?” he asked, sounding a bit miffed at being interrupted.

“Aww don’t pout,” Kagome lightly teased as she kissed the corner of his mouth, “I’ve got a surprise for you…and I think you’re really going to like it. You wait here and I’ll be back in no time,” Kagome said as she wiggled away from him and out of her room.

With a sour look on his face Inuyasha sat down on his girlfriend’s bed. ‘This ‘surprise’ had better be worth it,’ Inuyasha thought as he glanced around her room.

He had been in Kagome’s bedroom on several occasions but he was usually too distracted to notice exactly what her room looked like. As his gaze wandered he spotted a DVD cover laying on the floor. Curiously he picked it up off the floor. The title seemed innocent enough if corny, ‘ A Summer of Love,’ if there had been any other picture on the cover Inuyasha would have dismissed it as one of Kagome’s sappy romance movies. However it was hard to think that when the two people, a man and a woman, on the cover were half-naked and naked respectively, with the man standing behind the woman, a hand held possessively to her right breast and his other hand blocking an otherwise full frontal view of what was between her legs.

If the cover wasn’t shocking enough it was that Inuyasha recognized the face of the man on the DVD. For a moment he thought he was mistaken but the long silver hair, those golden eyes…there wasn't many people with those rare traits…and even fewer with both…and all of those traits were exclusive to the Inutashio family. A look of ruthless cunning crossed Inuyasha’s face.

The prodigal son of the Inutashio clan, who had been “missing” for almost five years, had been found in the most unlikely place.

It didn’t matter to Inuyasha that it was rather strange for his usually shy girlfriend to even have such a DVD. The face of his half brother plastered on said DVD, was much more interesting not to mention an open opportunity for him to advance in his father’s family.

Notes: I know no lemon just yet, but trust me I’ll more than make up for it in the next chapter. This chapter is mostly used for background and plot building and of course introducing Rin and Inuyasha. I apologize for any OOC moments. Oh and you're not mistaken this is Kag/Sess but I had Inuyasha as Kagome's boyfriend to add some interest, other pairings as well as characters are soon to follow.

Be on the look out for chapter three this weekend…since my colleges classes start back this week I won’t have time to write the next chapter until Friday ‘sweat drop’ Sorry.
