I Want You To Want Me

Naru had to ask about several different people where Harashi & Mushima Corporation a large accounting firm was located at, and it wasn't Kouga's fault either he did give her precise directions but unfortunately she just wasn't good at following directions. Eventually, she found the place and it looked beautiful, a quiet and clean area, in a prestige place of business. Every where she looked someone had on a business suit, rushing to where ever there were needed. She took notice to that because she looked out of place here; today school was let out early to make renovations, repairs, and decorations to the school's auditorium. That had been another issue all together for her; she needed a date for the dance. And why she hadn't asked him yet, well for fear really, fear he'd laugh and say no. But she knew he wouldn't do that to her, it was only her mind playing tricks. The change of clothes she brought with her. Nothing special just a mini denim skirt, a pink tee shirt that read, “I'm spoiled rotten!” with a tame pair of pink heels that Katsumi made her wear, she said they were Manolo Blahnik or something from New York. Naru smiled in memory of her sister Katsumi, after she lost her virginity she went home the following morning and shared details like how they used to. Gigi called in a frantic because she had left about two hundred messages on her cell phone, needing to be the first one to know everything, So that afternoon the three of them got together and went to Cafe Gyoza Lou and chatted away until first signs of nightfall. She missed her already and she'd only been gone a day. Coming to a stop at the revolving doors of the high rise building, she spotted the security desk and walked over in need of some information.



“Excuse me.”



“Good afternoon miss. And how may I help you?”



“Good afternoon. I'm here to see Harashi, Kouga.”



“Your name please.”



“Oh, sorry. Morisato, Naru.”



He pulled a billboard out while skimming through four sets of pages, until finally he lifted his gaze to her, and checked again, “I'm sorry, but I don't see you anywhere, Miss Morisato.”



“But he's expecting me...” Shippou had just came out of the elevator, and rounded the corner back to his station desk, when he smelled cherries and jasmine. Seeing where the scent came from, made him smile, it was his father's new girlfriend. And it looked like his co- worker Tozai was giving her a hard time. He wasn't a demon so he couldn't smell Kouga's scent on her.



“Hey Tozai.” Shippou patted his back, giving Naru a toothy grin, “Go take your break. I can handle it from here.”



He looked from shippou to her, and sighed, “Alright.”



“Well, well, well.” His gaze made a lazy inspection of her outfit, “It's good to see you again stranger.”



She blushed, and smiled her greeting, “Hello Shippou.”



He smirked with his chin in his palm. “Did you come here to see me gorgeous or my father?”



She made a little laugh, “Kouga.”



“Aww. That hurts. I thought we had something.” He faked being offended while clutching his chest in despair. She rolled her eyes,giggling at his playful humor,



He winked at her coming out of his desk he motioned for her to follow, “Come on, I'll escort you up to his floor.” They walked toward the one of the four elevator doors and rode it up to kouga's floor, “I apologize for my co-worker back there. He's new.” His big frame leaned to the side while sticking his hands in his pockets.



She smiled at him, then looked away with a gentle shrug of her shoulders, “It's okay, shippou. He was only doing his job.”



Shippou smirked at her modest behavior and thought she was a cutie, “Listen, whenever you want just go on up from now on.” She nodded, “When we get to kouga's floor, I'll show you where to go next.” They waited not too long, until a chime ringed. She stepped out waiting to follow him. Shippou lead the way saying hello every now and then to people passing by. Until they stopped in front of two large black doors. He pulled out a card key from his pocket swiping it and opened the door. “I'll tell kouga to give you one of these so you can come in yourself but I'm going to give you an extra I have downstairs.”



“Thank you.” Shippou smiled, she really was a cute. He could see why kouga liked her so much. They walked through glass doors. And there at an all black U shaped desk was a woman, and she was very pretty from what Naru could describe her. She was probably his secretary. As they approached closer she looked up and smile at shippou, then her gaze went to Naru and there wasn't much of a smile left.



“What's up Kagura. How's tricks?” Shippou smirked, sticking his hands in his pockets.



He was the only male that worked here, she didn't have the privilege of sampling unfortunately, “I'm good, Shippou sweetheart. Who's your friend?” She looked unreal up close; her features were movie star perfect. She didn't mean to stare but Naru had never seen a woman look as perfect as she did.



“This little lady is here to see Kouga.” He smiled to himself, knowing he could be the devil sometimes. Shippou knew all and well kagura had a little thing going on with his father. Had being past tense, now Naru was in the picture, and seeing his father's girlfriend in the flesh made things all the more sweeter.



“Oh. She is?” It had to be her imagination but it looked like this woman was giving her the evil eye.



He wanted to laugh, at the way she sounded so surprised, “He's still in his office right?” Shippou didn't care much about kagura, because she'd been through a lot of guys that worked here. He hadn't been one of them but his uncle sesshoumaru had a couple of riveting stories he had told him about her.



Kagura's territorial side was peeking through, and she wanted blood, “Yes. He's still in his office.” There was that look again, and boy did it feel pretty frosty in here all of a sudden.



Shippou smelled her slight agitation toward Naru, and was ready to show his authority if he had to. “Great.” He motioned his head for her to come closer, “Now listen, you can head straight through the work station area and his office is at the far end, can't miss it.” She nodded her head vigorously, putting the information to memory.



He smiled, and tapped the tip of her nose. “And don't forget, okay.”



Naru blushed, nodding her head again, “I won't. And thanks again Shippou.” He gave her one last look before nodding toward Kagura, his gaze telling her not to touch a hair on her head or it's going to get ugly. She frowned, in response to his hidden message, quickly averting her gaze she knew he'd probably kill her where she stood without any regret what so ever. Shippou walked away leaving it at that and headed through the systematic double doors with a wave of his hand.



“Enjoy it while it lasts, little girl.” Naru turned not understanding what she meant by that. Did she just glare at me?



“I beg your pardon.” Naru looked at her and wanted to grab that pretty little neck of hers and wring it.



“You heard me, little girl.” And she took a deep, calming, relaxing breath, and pasted her desk, heading for the double glass doors like Shippou told her, she kept her eye contact to a minimal. Coming to the work station, she noticed there were cubicles to her right, and offices to her left. She just couldn't seem to shake the feel, of that woman's prissy ass attitude.



That woman by far was a nasty critter. But being the lady she was, she kept moving forgetting about how her happy mood was brutally stepped on. Walking the long pathway, her heels made a soft low click against the newly waxed floor, drawing the attention of a couple of men, peeking out of their cubicles, just to see who she was. Come to think about it, she did notice a lot more stares then normal. Her choice of clothing could have been the reason why she was getting all these wolf grins and leering stares from mostly the men staff. Even heard a couple of comments about the way her ass looked in this skirt.



Geezus Christ. Naru blushed, putting a little more pep in her step toward the wood carved double doors at the end like shippou told her there would be. Coming to a stop, she knocked twice and in a second heard, kouga's voice telling her to come in. Turning the knob, she opened the door, hesitant to come in, seeing someone other then kouga in his office.



And that someone with the rockin gray hair...or sliver, platinum? He smelled her cherry and jasmine scent through the door. And that's when he heard her knock, but what got his blood flowing to the lower half of his body, was the tantalizing way her hips swayed in that skirt. That's when his gaze immediately strayed to her legs, toned creamy legs in those heels doing wonders for her thighs. Clearing his throat he motioned for her to come in. “Naru. Please come in.” He stood, and so did sesshoumaru and the look on his facial showed amusement, “I apologize, for forgetting about the time.” Kouga noticed while taking his jacket off the seat of his chair, that Sesshoumaru's gaze stayed on her chest hoping it was her shirt he was reading.



She came within talking distance, with Kouga to her right and sesshoumaru behind his desk, “I hope, I didn't interrupt anything here.” She looked toward the man with the crazy colored hair.



“Of course not. We were finishing up some business.” He caught Sesshoumaru's eye sight, frowning at him for not speaking up, “This is my business partner and close friend Sesshoumaru Mushima.” Sesshoumaru smiled at being caught, he rose from behind his desk to stand in front of her, he bowed to her in respects, and she bowed in return.



He grinned, “So you’re the one he's been talking about some much.” He moved toward her taking her hand in his, kissing a small patch of skin.



“You’re more beautiful then Kouga let on.” Is every demon this good looking? He is too fine up close and his lips were so soft.



Naru blushed ten fold, at his smooth voice, “Uh, t-thank you.” He was still holding her hand, and she didn't know what to do.



Kouga knew he was doing it on purpose, and so he suppressed the need to growl as much as possible, “Well, if it's okay with you sesshoumaru, I think she needs her hand back so we can leave now.” He really thought this was getting old.



Sessoumaru set her hand free, his test already confirming it, “Quite. I'll be on my way then. Again it was a pleasure Naru; I do so hope to see you again.” She was kouga's soul mate no doubt about it, her aura blended with him as his equal. And at such a young age.



“It was nice meeting you too.” She watched him leave out the door, and was surprised by kouga's sudden grip around her waist. He pulled her flush against his body, and she felt something else pressing into her stomach also. Naru face heated up, feeling his right hand play with the seam of her skirt, lightly caressing her skin.



He bent his head as soon as she looked up at him, and her heart's pounding increased, the more his mouth wandered against her neck the more she forgot where they were, “Forgetting you belong to me, Naru.” His statement was crude, but it felt more like a pleasurable tingle then crudeness.



She frowned in thought, trying to focus while his hand and mouth venture else where, “What d-did I do this time?”



It was getting very hard to breathe with him, licking and nipping the side of her neck, “I saw you blush when he kissed your hand.” He whispered, his tone half accusing,



“It was just a kiss on m-my hand.” And she wanted to argue more; however he was doing a real good job of silencing any further speaking. He wasn't punishing her. Kouga felt he needed to do this because in fact he was jealous.



He licked her ear, and she moaned, tilting her head back she gave him permission to do whatever he wanted. “Do you think he looks better then me?” He tugged her hips against him using her body to ease his pain.



God he had sexy lips. She couldn't answer him when he did that, and he knew it. “Well...” And she gasped from the sharp nip to her bottom lip.



“Don't you answer that?”



Naru understood while sucking on her lip, she couldn't hide the smile, she had to do ask. “Jealous?” His hand shifted up to her hair tugging her face toward his, inches from kissing him.



She knew his weakness, it was her. “Maybe I am.” And he kissed her, so softly she hardly felt it, “I don't like to share, angel. That should say it all.” He rubbed his nose against her hers and she sighed loving this man even more.



She gave him a Cheshire cat grin, and wrapped her arms around his neck, “You know you’re the only guy that rocks my world.” He smiled hugging her body closer, happy that she was in his arms again.



“I better be.” He nuzzled the side of her neck, taking a whiff of her scent and his, “You know, I couldn't stop thinking about you today.” He sounded almost angry with himself. And it felt good to have someone think of you non stop, at least she wasn't the only one.



“I kept thinking of you too.” Naru wanted to stay like this forever, he felt so warm and safe in his hold, and he held her to him like she was the most cherished thing in the world.



He kissed the top of her head, and laughed, “I don't think I'll be able to stay away from you for more then a couple of days,” He shook his head knowing it was the truth.



She leaned away confused by what he just said, “What are you talking about?”



He sighed regrettably, hoping to wait until they got to the cafe' for this. “I'm leaving to New York in four days.” She moved out of his embrace, shocked he hadn't old her sooner.



“When are you coming back?” Naru was almost too afraid to ask.



“In a week.”



“But I...” She took a deep breath and began again, “I'm graduating in four days.”



He wanted to smack himself for not remembering that.” Okay. Let's talk about this over food. I know you have to be hungry.” Kouga grabbed his jacket and briefcase in one hand, taking her hand in his other, when he did things like that she just couldn't seem to stay angry at him.



They both left out of his office hand in hand. And past through the employee work area, he knew who he was going to see past those doors and it didn't faze him at all. Kagura was past history, and that's how he treated her but when she looked up, her face just about wanted to kill. Her gaze slid to their hands linked together like glue, kagura wanted to scream, then rip his girlfriend's head off her pretty little neck. It was true, he did find someone to replace her, the very reason why he'd been pushing her away whenever they were alone, was because of her. The bastard didn't even so much as look at her. And to make matters worst she was a pathetic human, and she looked young. The little witch probably had a spell over him. When they were out of sight, she let lose a low growl of her own, not liking the fact he threw her away like some piece of garbage on the street. She was better then that, and that's why she was going to take her revenge on his new toy. That way he'd be hurt in the process also. Payback is a bitch, and she was that bitch to get the job done. With that in mind she smiled, getting back to her work.



Reaching the lobby, he stopped seeing shippou with his feet propped up, playing a PSP in hand. “Here. Take the elevator to the basement floor, ask the security guards to show you where my car is parked and I want you to wait for me inside.”



“Okay. But for how...” She didn't have time to finish her sentence because his lips were doing damage. His kiss was sweet and short, and all the more satisfying at the same time. Dear God. They were in public. Naru blushed as he pulled away; she went back in the elevator still a little dizzy.



Strolling over to he security desk, he stood placing his elbow on the table. “I'm leaving for the rest of the day, so don't except me back.”



“I wasn't going to. I knew it, as soon as she came in with those heels.”



“Here's the number for that doctor. Her name is Kagome Higarashi, she's a sweet woman, a half breed and mated to one of my good friends, so behave yourself please.”



“I'll call and schedule something tomorrow, thanks again.” Suddenly he frowned and asked, "By the way, did you tell her you’re leaving out of Japan to go back to the states in four days?”



“I'm on top of it.”



“I'm sure you’re on top and in every other position you could think of, isn't that right pop?”



Kouga blushed; he could always play it off, “Where exactly are you going with this?”



He laughed, pausing his PSP, he leaned back in his chair, “You’re robbing the cradle dad, big time.”



His lip twitched trying to hide the smile that wanted to come. Yes he was infatuated with Naru, “You act as if that's a bad thing.”



“Your right it isn't but,” He looked serious just as suddenly, “When she just turned eighteen and you take her virginity the night of her birthday, it now becomes an issue.”



Kouga was shocked he found out exactly when she lost her virginity, “H-how did you know...”



“I didn't know. You just told me,”



“Come on, when I met her she was a virgin and now she's not. Of course it had to be on her birthday. I know you, too well.”



“Give me some fucking credit here,” Running a hand through his hair he sighed, “You've seen the way she walks.”



“Point taken. But you’re still in the wrong.”



“I honestly couldn't help it.”



“Really?”



“I'm curious, why couldn't you resist?”



“Because I'm in love with her.”





”I kind of figured that out a long time ago, I just needed to hear you say it.”



Now he needed to know why,” Just a innocent question; but how does she make you feel?”



“I'm not sure. All I can say is she treats me like I'm normal.”



“Normal?”



“Yes. Like I'm a normal guy who doesn't have to hide the fact that I am a demon," Kouga smiled slowly and said. "She makes me feel comfortable in my own skin, like I could never do any harm in her eyes.”
