1 week later

6:30 a.m.

Kagome slept so soundly not a care in the world, enjoying her sleep till her alarm went off. Kagome opened her eyes.
Why is the alarm going off, wait alarm when did I get an alarm she wondered to herself. She turned over and shut the alarm off, and laid down back in bed.

Down in the kitchen the morning staff was preparing breakfast.
6:45 a.m.

Sesshoumaru came down the stairs and sat at the kitchen table. Kaede poured him a cup of hot fresh coffee.
“Good morning, Lord Sesshoumaru. Would you like some breakfast?”
“I’ll eat when she comes down.” He told Kaede.
While he was drinking his coffee, a young woman came in she was dressed in white blouse and black skirt. “Morning sir.” She said as she walked in.
“Sora, what did I tell you to call me?” he asked her.
“Lord Sesshoumaru but that doesn’t work for me, besides I don’t hear that new girl calling you that.” She said to him.
Sesshoumaru narrowed his eyes at her.
She doesn’t work for me you do and this is not the first time I have told you about this.” He told her. He looked at his watch and saw that it was now 6:50, and Kagome had still not come down. Sora was young 21 years old, light brown hair, with green eyes. She was tall with nice womanly curves.
“What is taking her so long?” Sesshoumaru asked to no one in particular.
“Be patient the poor thing probably scared, she’s going to a new school and all.” Kaede told him.
“She has five more minutes and then Sora you’re going up there to see what is keeping her.” He ordered her.
“What!, Why me?” she yelled.
“Because I said so.” He simply told her.
Five minutes went by. Sora went up to Kagome’s bedroom she knocked on the door when she received no answer, she opened the bedroom door she walked in to see Kagome still asleep in the bed. Sora walked over to the bed, she shook Kagome at first. When that didn’t work Sora grabbed a pillow and hit Kagome over the head with it. Kagome awoke opening her eyes and turned to look at the person who had awaken her.
“Who are you?”Kagome asked her
“I am Sora, I work for Lord Sesshoumaru or as I like to call him Lord Fluffy. Don’t tell him I said that though, you have to get ready for school.” Sora told her. Kagome yawned.
She pulled the covers off of her and got out of the bed.
“Where’s your uniform?” Sora asked Kagome as she was going into the bathroom to take a shower. “In the closet.” Kagome told her as she shut the door behind her. Sora took Kagome’s uniform out the closet and layed it down on the bed.
7:10
Kagome came out the bathroom in her bathrobe. Kagome changed into her uniform.
“Let me do your hair.” Sora offered.
Sora blow-dried Kagome’s hair.

7:26

“There all done now when we get downstairs let me do all the talking.” Sora told her. Kagome grabbed her book bag and followed Sora down the stairs.

---

Kagome ran into the kitchen and sat down.
“Morning.” Kagome said to everyone.
“What took you so long?” Sesshoumaru asked Kagome.
Sora quickly spoke up.
“She was having trouble with her skirt, her skirts to long so it took some time.” Sora told him. Sesshoumaru knew that Sora was lying but let it go this time. Kaede served Kagome a bowl of cereal.
“Hurry up and eat so I can take you to school.” He got up from the kitchen table and was leaving the kitchen. When he spoke again.
“Meet me in the garage.” He told her and left.
Kagome finished her cereal and grabbed her book bag.
“Bye Kaede!” Kagome yelled as she left the kitchen and ran to the garage.
“Where he’d go?, He told me to meet him in here and he’s not even in here.” Kagome said aloud.
“I’m right behind you.” Sesshoumaru said to her.
“Eep.” Kagome said as turned around and looked up at him.
“Hi.” She said.
Sesshoumaru half smiled at her. “Do you often talk to your self?” he asked her.
“No, it’s just that you weren’t in here.” she said to him.

“I see well let’s go” He told her.
As Sesshoumaru drove her to the school Kagome looked around at the scenery, she saw people talking on their cell phones, women jogging. When Sesshoumaru drove up to the school Kagome became nervous. Her stomach felt like it had butterflies in it.

“Here we’re.” Sesshoumaru said to her. Kagome looked out the window at all the kids going to school some looked to be her age others older than she.
“Can’t I stay home?” Kagome asked him turning to look at him.
“You have to go too, school sometime Kagome.” He told her as he unlocked the car door and walked around to open hers. Kagome stepped out of the car.
“What if no one likes me, or I say the wrong thing.” She said to him.
Sesshoumaru bent down to he was eye level with her.
“You will be fine, you’ve already changed the way people in my home our, I have never seen Michael smile and laugh so much before you came.” He told her.
Kagome smiled at him. “Okay, I’ll go.” She told him.
Sesshoumaru got ready to say something else to her when he heard an all to familiar voice.
“Hey what are you doing, aren’t you a little too old to be picking up little girls?” Inuyasha said as he walked over to his older half brother.
Sesshoumaru turned around to face Inuyasha.
“What do you want mutt?”
Inuyasha growled at him. “I told you not to call me that Ice Prince.” Inuyasha said to him.
Sesshoumaru would have beat Inuyasha to a pulp if Kagome had not been there.
“Hey is he bothering you?” Inuyasha asked Kagome.
“No.” Kagome said to him.
Kagome looked between the two silver haired angels.
“Kagome this is my idiot half brother Inuyasha.”
“Hi.” Kagome said to Inuyasha, she went to shake his hand when Sesshoumaru put her hand down.
“What’s your problem!?, She can shake my hand not like I have a disease!” Inuyasha said getting angry.
“One would hope so with the girl you keep in your company.” Sesshoumaru told him.
“As I asked you earlier what are you doing with her?” Inuyasha asked him.
“She is an associate of mines’ daughter who is staying with me for a while anything else you want to know?” he asked Inuyasha.
Before Inuyasha could retort a black limo pulled up. Out of the limo came Kagura and Kanna, Kagome looked at the two sisters. Naraku stepped out of the limo.
“Kanna why don’t you go and talk to your friends.” Her father told her. Kanna nodded her head and left Naraku and her sister alone.
“If I get one more phone call from the principal, I am taking your credit cards away from you, do I make myself clear?” He said to her. Kagura nodded her head.
“Kagome stay here. I’ll be right back.” Sesshoumaru told her. Sesshoumaru walked over to Naraku and Kagura.
“Morning Mr. Sesshoumaru.” Kagura said to him.
“Morning.” He said to her.
Kagura put her book bag on her shoulder and left the two men to talk.
“So, I see you’re here early.” Naraku said to him.
“I ‘m surprised you came at all. You usually let the driver take them or let Kagura drive to school herself.” Sesshoumaru said to him.
“She’s been forbidden to drive until her grades are up.” Naraku told him.
“Well I’m sure she will she’s a smart girl.” Sesshoumaru told him.
“Hn, so what are you doing after your little girl goes to class?” Naraku asked him.
Sesshoumaru decided to ignore the comment.
“I am going home to eat and then how about a game of basketball my friend?” he said to Naraku.
“What time?” Naraku asked.
“Noon.” Sess said to him as walked back over to Kagome.
“Kagome let’s go inside.” Sesshoumaru told her.
Kagome followed him inside the school, different students whispered to themselves as Kagome walked beside Sesshoumaru. They walked into the main office. Kagome took a seat while Sesshoumaru spoke to the secretary getting all the information he needed. The secretary then got on the speaker and called a student down to the office. A few minutes later a young girl came into the office. She had black hair to her shoulder and chocolate brown eyes.
“You called for me Mrs. Jennings?”
“Yes, Rin this is Kagome Tashio a new student and I would like for you to show her around today.” Mrs. Jennings told her. Rin turned around to look at Kagome.
“Hi, nice to meet you.” Rin said to her. Shaking Kagome’s hand.
“Hi.” Kagome said to her.
Kagome stood up and grabbed her book bag.
“Well let’s go.”Rin said to her with a smile.
Kagome walked over to Sesshoumaru. “Any chance that you changed your mind about letting me stay home?”
“He shook his head no. “I’ll see you at 2:30 outside of the school.” He said to her. He reached inside his pants pocket and pulled out his wallet and handed her $20.00.
“Here Kaede forgot to make you lunch so make sure you get something to eat and stay away from my brother.” He handed her the money. Kagome took the money and place it in her skirt pocket.
“Thank you.” He said to him.
Kagome put her bag on her shoulder and left the office with Rin but not before waving to him.
“Is that your dad?” Rin asked her
“No, a friend of my dad’s she told her.


Sesshoumaru drove back home and went into his office to make some calls, he looked through his accounts on the computer when he felt something rub up against his leg. He looked down to see the kitten her head against his legs. He picked Suya up.
“Don’t worry she’ll be home soon.” Sesshoumaru said to himself more than to the Suya.


Things so far were going find in school for Kagome, it was now lunch time and Kagome sat in the lunch room with Rin and some of her friends. Rin’s friends were a girl named Sango and a girl named Breana. Kagome was eating her lunch when Inuyasha came over and sat down next to her.
“Hey, so you’re staying with my brother huh and now your sitting with these losers.”
“You jerk just because we don’t hang with you and rich ass friends doesn’t mean we’re losers!” Sango yelled at him.
“Your only sitting over here because Koga dumped you for a real woman!” Inuyasha retorted.
Kagome saw Sango was on the verge of crying.
“You jerk leave her alone!” Kagome yelled at him. Kagome dumped her soda on Inuyasha’s head. Inuyasha pushed Kagome to the floor.
“Ow.” She said.
Sango jumped on Inuyasha’s back pulling at his hair, Kagome got up off the floor and jumped on Inuyasha beating him in the face. The whole cafeteria watched the three fight. Finally a teacher came and broke the fight up and sent the three to the principal’s office.


Sesshoumaru and Naraku were playing basketball when Sesshoumaru’ s cell phone rang.
Sess, answered the phone.
“What is it Sora?” He asked her annoyed that his game had been interrupted.
“Kagome’ s school called she was in a fight and they would like you to come and pick her up.” Sora told him.
“Who was she fighting?!” he yelled in the phone.
“They didn’t tell me sir, will you just go and make sure that she is okay.” Sora said to him.
Sesshoumaru hung up the phone.
Damn girl can’t even behave one day.
Naraku looked at Sesshoumaru as he wiped the sweat from his face with a towel.
“Problem?” Naraku asked.
“I have to go to the school. She was in a fight!” He told Naraku.
(A/N: Naraku and his wife Savannah were both 14 when Kagura was born, so that is why he is young with a teenage daughter)


Naraku ruled his mob differently from Sesshoumaru, Naraku had taken over his father’s mob after his death at the age of 18 now he was 31 years old with a wife and two daughters. Sesshoumaru grabbed his car keys and drove to St. Midoriko. He parked his silver Mercedes and went inside the school, he didn’t have time to change into a business suit so he came in his shorts and sleeveless T-shirt. Showing off his well sculpted arms. His hair was tied back. He walked into the main office.
“I am here to pick up Kagome Tashio.” Sesshoumaru said to the secretary at the front desk.
“She is over there.” The woman told him as she pointed over to where Kagome was sitting. Sesshoumaru turned around to see not only Kagome but his brother and another girl siting down as well.
Sesshoumaru walked over to Kagome.
Kagome looked up at him. “Uh-oh.” She said more to herself than anyone.
“Now you’ve done it he’s going to beat the crap outta you.” Inuyasha said to Kagome.
“Let’s go.” Sesshoumaru told Kagome.
Kagome grabbed her book bag and followed Sesshoumaru out of the school. Once inside of the car Kagome kept her head straight thinking to herself.
Why did I get involved with the fight between Inuyasha and Sango, now I’m probably going to get punished for sure, he did say he would punish me.

Sesshoumaru parked the car in the garage. He got out of the car not even glancing at Kagome. Once inside the house Kagome walked into the living room and placed her book bag on the floor. Kagome went to go up to her bedroom when Sesshoumaru stopped and called her name.
“Kagome, my office now!” he yelled.
Kagome jumped at the sound of his voice, and went to follow him into his office when Kaede and Sora came out the kitchen to see Kagome slowly walking behind Sesshoumaru.
“I hope he’s not too hard on her.” Sora said to Kaede.
Sesshoumaru sat down at his desk and watched as Kagome sat down in the chair.
“Explain your self.” He said to her.

“Mr. Sesshoumaru, It’s not what you think your brother came over to the table I was sitting at with Rin, the girl who was showing me around today. And Inuyasha asked me why I was sitting at this table with these losers, and Sango the other girl who was in the fight with me got mad at him and told him. They were not losers. And Then Inuyasha told Sango the only reason she was sitting over here was because some guy named Koga had dumped her. And when I saw that Sango was on the verge of crying I yelled at him and called him a jerk and told him to leave her alone, and then I dumped my soda on his head. So he called me a wench and then pushed me on the floor. And then next thing I knew Sango had jumped on Inuyasha’s back and was pulling on his hair, and then I got up and began hitting Inuyasha and then next thing you know where in the principal’s office.” Kagome told him.
“What possessed you to get involved? You’re supposed to go to school and mind your own business not stick your nose where it doesn’t belong?!” he yelled at Kagome. Kagome held her head down.
“But I was just helping out Sango if anyone should be in trouble it should be Inuyasha not me.” Kagome told him. Kagome could tell by the look in his eyes she was in trouble.
“Go to your room why I decide your punishment.” Sesshoumaru told her.
“But your not being fair I told you it wasn’t my fault Mr. Sesshoumaru.”
“Get out of my sight Kagome.” He said to her.
Kagome got up and ran out of the office and up to her bedroom.
She took her uniform off and changed into a pair of faded jeans and a top. She sat on her bed rubbing Suya ears.


Sesshoumaru was in his office thinking when there was a knock on the door.
“Come in.”
Sora walked into the office with a cup of tea for Sesshoumaru. “I thought you might like some tea.” She said as she placed it on his desk. “You know she was just sticking up for her new friend, and you of all people know what a jerk your half brother can be.” Sora told him.
“That is not the issue here she should have stayed out of it.” Sesshoumaru told her.
“Lord Sesshoumaru, please control your temper with her she just a little thing you can’t just do her like you would do Chris, or one of your other workers, you yourself said she doesn’t work for you.” Sora reminded him.
Sesshoumaru got up from his chair leaving his untouched tea on the desk, Sora followed behind him as he left his office, she watched as he went up the steps to Kagome’s room.
He knocked once on her door before he walked in. Kagome was sitting on her bed doing her homework. She knew he was in the room she just didn’t want to look at him.
“Would you like to know what your punishment is?” he asked her.
“Not really but tell me anyway it’s not like I have a say in it.” She told him as she closed her book
He closed the door behind him. “Your punishment is that for the next 3 weeks will be moping the kitchen floors, washing my cars.” He told her.
Kagome looked at him all the time her mind was thinking.
Is he out of his mind!, He has like 40 cars in that garage, and he wants me to mop the kitchen floor.
“That’s so not fair and you know it, you have workers to do the floor and whatever happened to a carwash?” She asked him.
“Would you like me make it 3 months instead?” He asked her.
“But when am, I suppose to do all this I have school remember, this wouldn’t have happened if you had let me stay home like I asked in the beginning.” Kagome told him.
He smiled at her a smile she would come to know meant trouble for her.
“As soon as you come home from school you will do your homework and then began to wash the cars, and after you’ve had dinner you will mop the floor not with a mop but with a sponge.” He told her the look on Kagome’s face was priceless when he told her she would be using a sponge.
“But, but that means I have to be on my hands and knees scrubbing.” She whined.
“You should be glad that’s all you have to do I could have made your punishment worse.” He said to her as he turned and left her room.
Kagome threw her notebook at the closed door.
“ Three weeks of scrubbing and washing cars, still it was funny when Sango hit Inuyasha upside the head.” She said aloud.
Kagome did her homework and later came down for dinner after she ate she was getting ready to go back up to her bedroom when Sesshoumaru called her.
“Aren’t you forgetting something?” Sesshoumaru asked her.
“You were serious?” she asked.
“I was very serious you have work to do, I suggest you get started on the kitchen I’ll let the cars go till tomorrow.” He told her as he got up and went upstairs.
“Turn the lights out when you’re done.” He said as he walked up stairs.
Kagome stomped into the kitchen, she filled the bucket up with water and dunk the sponge in the bucket. She washed the floor, there really aren’t any marks on the floor, she knew he was just doing this to drive her crazy. After she washed the floor she empty the bucket of old water in the downstairs bathroom. Kagome’ s arms were killing her now.
Kagome changed her clothes and got into bed and went to sleep. The next morning Kagome went and took a shower, brushed her teeth. She put her uniform on and brushed her hair. She grabbed her bag and came downstairs.
“Morning, Kaede, Sora.” Kagome said to the two women ignoring Sesshoumaru.
“Morning, Kagome here’s your breakfast, I made your lunch.” Kaede told her.
“The floor looks great Kagome.” Sora said to her.
“Thanks, even though my arms are sore.” She said as she looked in Sesshoumaru ‘s back. “Yes it does.” Came Sesshoumaru’s silky voice. “It would be a shame if something was to stain the floor.” He said as he turned to look at Kagome.
“You wouldn’t.” Kagome said to him.
“Dear Kagome what has you worried that I would spill my coffee intentionally on this clean floor?” he said as he smirked at her.
“I believe you would just to make my job complicated.” She retorted.
“Don’t worry your pretty little head, I wouldn’t be that cruel, besides you have forty cars to wash when you get home from school.”
Kagome felt like she was going to faint. forty cars he ‘s trying to kill me.”
Kagome got up and grabbed her book bag. “Okay take me to school so I can get back and die washing your cars.” Kagome said to him as she walked out the kitchen to the garage. She looked at the cars they didn’t seem to be really dirty.
Sesshoumaru dropped Kagome off at school and went and did whatever he did while she was at school.

“Hey, Kagome.” Sango said as she walked up to her. Kagome turned to see Sango coming up to her.
“Hey Sango.” She said.
“I’m sorry about yesterday, I hope you didn’t get into much trouble.” Sango said to her.
“Don’t worry about it, the main thing is I don’t think Inuyasha will be bothering you anymore.” Kagome said to her.
“Yeah that’s true, but my parent’s grounded me for a week.” Sango told her.
“What! A week, I have to wash the floor and wash cars for three weeks.” Kagome moaned.
Sango put her hand on her shoulder. “I ‘m sorry, Kagome this is all my fault.”
“No it’s Inuyasha ‘s fault!, If he had just left us alone.” Kagome said.
“Was that guy that picked you up yesterday Inuyasha ‘s brother?” Sango asked her.
“Yeah, I’m staying with him for a while, so he’s punishing me for yesterday, my arms are still sore from last night.” Kagome told her as they walked into the school.
“If you want, I can ask my parent’s to let me help you with your chores.” Sango offered.
“No, knowing him, he would say no, but thanks for the offer.”
Kagome saw Inuyasha in the hall of the school with his friends and a girl that looked something like her but more mature.
Sango looked at Kagome.
“That’s Kikyo Nario, the queen bitch of the school, she and Kagura Drake try to ruin everyone’ s lives. “ Sango told her.
Kagome nodded her head.
“Well let’s go I don’t want to be late for class.” Kagome told her grabbing Sango’s hand.
Kagome managed stay out of trouble at school. When 2:30 came around Kagome was waiting outside the school for Sesshoumaru to show up. Kagome sighed for the tenth time when he finally showed up.
Kagome walked over and opened the car door and got in closing the door behind her.
Sesshoumaru put the car into gear and drove off.
“Behave yourself in school today?” He asked knowing he was pushing her buttons.
“Yes, I did and you want to know something I think I am being unfairly punished.” Kagome told him.
“Do you now, and why is that?” He asked her.
“ Well my friend Sango she’ s just grounded for a week.”


“But with my punishment you’ll no better than to stick your nose in someone else’ s business.” He told her as he pulled up to the house. Kagome got out of the car slamming the door behind her and went up to her room and began her home work. After she was done her homework, she changed her clothes and came down stairs and went into the garage to clean the already clean cars. But when she walked in all the cars had mud and dirt on them. Kagome dropped to the floor on her knees.
Kagome screamed.
“You evil, evil man you did this on purpose these cars were clean this morning!” Kagome yelled. Sesshoumaru could hear her all the way in his office he smiled to himself.
One by one Kagome washed the cars she washed his precious Jaguar, making sure not to get a scratch on it, after she had washed all 40 cars. Kagome came back into the house her arms were so tired. Kagome went up to her room and took a quick shower, she put her hair in a ponytail. She came back down the steps and sat and waited for dinner to be served.
Kagome looked at Sesshoumaru. She hated him so much at this moment.
“Why are you staring at me?” he asked her.
“ You did that on purpose.” She said through clenched teeth.
“And what would that be?”
“Those cars were all spotless this morning, what did you do to them?” she asked him.
“Yes, that well I let my friends borrow my cars for the day and the funny thing is they all returned dirty.” He told her as if it was no big deal.
“Well then I quit.” She told him folding her arms across her chest.
He couldn’t help but laugh.
Kagome got out of her seat and walked over to him, Sesshoumaru looked at her.
“What do you want now?” he asked her.
“Why are you being mean to me?” Kagome said as she began to cry.
“I’m just a girl I can’t do all of this, the floor is one thing those cars are a different story.” Kagome began to whimper. Her tears always worked on her dad maybe they would work on him. Kagome’ s lower lip tremble as she cried and to make it more dramatic she got down on her knees and grabbed his pant’s leg. “Please I’ll be a good girl I won’t ever do that again.” She told him in between tears.
“Mr. Sesshoumaru, plea...se.” She cried.
Sora came out of the garden to see Kagome on her knees crying. Sora smiled, she knew that trick she had used that on her parent’s when she was younger.
Before it’s all over she ‘s going to have him wrapped around her finger.


Sesshoumaru had stopped himself from rolling his eyes at the crying girl on the floor.


“Get up Kagome, you don’t have to do the cars anymore I guess I didn’t realize that it was too much for you, you don’t have to do it anymore.” He told her.
Kagome smiled to her self. Mental note in the future use tears.
“Thank you Mr. Sesshoumaru.” She said. She kissed him on his cheek and walked back over to her seat and sat down.

Later that night Kagome was in her bed proud of herself for getting out of washing anymore cars. Kagome looked around her room, she was actually happy, a part of her missed her parents but also a part of her felt like she belonged here and never wanted to leave.
Little did she know someone else was beginning to feel like she belonged here too.

Thanks for the great reviews.
