Chapter Twelve: Monday Morning
Sunlight beamed through her apartment early that morning, and Kagome begrudgingly blinked open her eyes. She took a moment to recall her surroundings, and she realized that she wasn’t in her bed, but lying in a warm lap. She looked up to curtain of silver and met golden eyes.
“Good morning,” Sesshoumaru said smoothly, and at first, she felt a sense of shock, barely remembering much after falling asleep in his lap last night.
“Oh,” she said simply, yawning before she twisted out of his lap and sat up next to him. She rubbed the sleep out of her eyes, coming fully awake. “Sorry I fell asleep on you last night,” she chuckled softly, suddenly feeling embarrassed.
“It was no trouble,” he said, shifting on the couch and watching her patiently before getting up himself.
“Um, isn’t it Monday?” Kagome remarked anxiously, turning her head toward the clock. It read 6:30, at least two hours before she had to go to work. As for Sesshoumaru’s job, she didn’t know. She turned to him curiously. “Are you going to have enough time to go home and change before you go to work?”
“Do not worry. My first meeting isn’t until 10 today, and it’s a mediating conference in my office,” he said unconcerned.
Kagome nodded, and she remembered something important before jumping from the couch. “Oh, God, I can’t go to work today!”
Sesshoumaru furrowed his brow as she continued, “I have to ask Mama and Jii-chan about my dad!” she exclaimed, and she couldn’t believe she almost forgot. She turned to him panicking. “The last thing I want to do is anger Kikyou and HMS.”
Sesshoumaru nodded, frowning. “I only wish I could come support you,” he offered, and by the look on Kagome’s face, she wished it as well.
