Summary Kagome endures Sesshoumaru’s back seat driving
Sesshoumaru was down. So down that he called Kagome to pick him up. Not only had they fired him, they had taken his company car. He was forced to take the walk out the front door by the security guards as all his comrades snickered behind his back.
Kagome honked to let him know she was there. He put the box that he was taking home in the trunk and slumped down in the seat.’ Just don’t say anything, Kagome and maybe I can endure the ride home.’ He thought.
Kagome stared at him for a moment. It was obvious that he did not want to take about what had just happened. Maybe he would be more agreeable after a good night’s sleep. Nothing to do, but muddle on and see how they could survive his job loss.
She pulled out of the parking lot when she heard him yell “Watch out” Turning her head she saw the same car approaching the lot she had seen before she pulled out into traffic. Plenty of room. He did not have tell her how to drive. At least she still had a car to drive.
When they reached the interstate on-ramp things got worse. He would brake when he thought she was about to run into something. “You’re going too fast” and “You’re following too close” seemed to be his watch words of the day. He acted as if they were in danger of crashing every minute, bracing himself, flinching and braking as if his actions alone could save them.
By the time they got home, they were not speaking. Kagome reminded herself why she did not like to drive when he was in the car. One Christmas when she was driving back from her parents in a blizzard, he had started screaming for her to stop because they were going backwards.
Every since that day she had resolved never to drive while he was in the car. Today’s circumstances forced her to drive him home. Tomorrow she would relish every minute of the commute knowing he was not in the car.
