Exclusive
“So, what about this so called ‘exclusive restaurant’ of yours.”
Kagome found herself with Sesshomaru the day after he took her out to dinner. He didn’t call to say that he was coming or anything, he just showed up on her doorstep around the same time and told her to come with him. She couldn’t argue, he wouldn’t allow her anyway. Sesshomaru always got his way so anything that she would have said would have been in vain.
She was dragged into the car and forced to deal with silence that she just couldn’t stand. Not even the radio was on. As much as she tried not to ask because it would be pointless, she just had to know where they were going. He didn’t tell her but he did give her the hint that it was an exclusive restaurant. Kagome never has been to anywhere exclusive. There were many high-class restaurants in the city, she had to wonder which one they were going to and how did he set up a date to go at such a short time.
To her surprise, they ended up at his apartment that his father had set up for him upon his return. She looked at him waiting for him to tell her what being at his apartment had to do with restaurants.
Sesshomaru then bowed and said, “Welcome to Chez Sesshomaru, I’ll be your host, waiter, and chief this evening.”
Kagome’s eyes widened. “Sessh, I didn’t know that you can cook.”
“I had to live while I was away you know. I refuse to go out to eat everyday.” He replied as he turned and headed to the refrigerator to gather his ingredients.
He seated her then she watched him intensely as he moved about the kitchen with fluid like motions. She couldn’t see what he was making but she sure could smell it, she couldn’t tell scents apart and she wished that she was gifted with Sesshomaru’s sense of smell. Her stomach growled for her attention and her mouth was drooling over. He peeked over his shoulder a few times and smiled when he saw her staring at him.
Soon both had a fully loaded meal in front of them along with some red wine. Kagome just hoped that she wouldn’t look like a pig in front on him. When she’s hungry like she is now, manners are something that eludes her. She had never seen so much good food in one place, even the most expensive restaurants couldn't put out as he did. The best thing was that it was all free.
She didn’t know where to start, there were two main dishes, which were beef teriyaki and the other chicken teriyaki. There was also tempura, miso soup, udon, and steamed vegetables. She had a taste for chicken so she started with that and a side of steamed vegetables. If she were still up to it, she would go for the miso soup and ask to take some tempura and udon home so that she could have it for lunch tomorrow.
“Wow, this is delicious. You know, you could make money off this. I get half the proffits for giving you the idea.” Kagome said as she dug into her food. She wanted to melt at how tender and flavorful the food was.
“And you expected less of me, I am quite ashamed of you Keggy, how dare you doubt the killing perfection.”
She glared at him then just rolled her eyes before concentrating on finishing her meal.
With an empty pate and a full stomach, Kagome sat back and smiled at him. “Wonderful meal, my complements to the chief, is there any dessert?”
Sesshomaru’s smirk reappeared as he said, “Why yes, it’s something that I learned recently so I made some earlier before I came and got you.”
“Oh and what is it?”
His smirk widened and there was a gleam in his eyes that she felt wary of. He then said, “Chocolate Shake.”
