Chapter 3- Getting ready for Job Interviews, but not for the awaiting trouble
Inuyasha tugged at the long ribbon that was tied around his neck.
"Uggh, I don't see why I have to wear this stuff!" Inuyasha choked as he yanked the ribbon off.
"INUYASHA!" Kagome yelled. "Don't do that to your tie!"
"I still don't see why I have to get all dressed up for this damn interview!" Inuyasha pouted.
"Because it makes a good impression, now shut up and SIT!" Kagome screamed and as Inuyasha touched the ground she quickly tied on the tie. "Besides, you should thank me for helping you."
"Yeah, sure," Inuyasha muttered. "Helping me choke to death."
"It's all in the details," Kagome explained as she stuck a baseball cap on Inuyasha's head to hide the fact that he had puppy ears.
Inuyasha managed to stumble onto his feet and survey his reflection in the mirror. He stared in disgust at the tight jean pants and loose plaid shirt that he had to wear. Then he looked at Kagome pleadingly.
"You're not seriously going to do this to me!" Inuyasha barked. "Right?"
"Oh, don't be such a baby!" Kagome smiled. "It'll be fine!"
And with that Kagome dragged Inuyasha out the door. Together, they made their way to a tall plain grey building that was several blocks away from Kagome's house.
"Now," Kagome started in a matter-of-fact voice. "What you have to-"
"Wait a minute. Wait a minute!" Inuyasha yelled, interrupting Kagome. "Why are you doing all this for me? Why are you getting me a job?"
Inuyasha peered at Kagome through suspicious eyes. Kagome fidgeted under his glare and her face turned bright red.
"Well…to help you of course!" Kagome smiled wearily, but Inuyasha could tell that she was lying and he raised an eyebrow at her.
"That doesn't seem like something you would do...it seems too nice!" Inuyasha replied, earning himself an angry glare and a harsh 'SIT BOY!' from Kagome. As Inuyasha thudded to the ground, Kagome gave out a satisfied smile.
"You say I'm not nice eh?" Kagome scoffed as Inuyasha lay on the ground, his foot twitching slightly.
Inuyasha managed to get up and sarcastically snarled in reply, "No, no…of course not!"
"Good, now get in there and remember: BE POLITE!" Kagome shouted as she pushed Inuyasha through the glass doors of the big grey building and waved at him cheerily.
"By the way," Kagome yelled through the glass doors, "I'll be on my date with Hojo while I wait for you…BYE! Have fun!"
At the name of 'Hojo' Inuyasha burst out of the grey building, flinging the glass doors open and almost off their hinges. "HOJO! WHO'S HE!" He screamed at Kagome in shock and surprise.
"What? Oh! Ooops…" Kagome blushed, her face rosy. How could I possibly let THAT slip out? She thought quietly to herself. Inuyasha isn't supposed to know about Hojo! What have I done? Now Inuyasha will probably want to kill him!
"No one! No one!" Kagome blushed. "No one at all!"
Inuyasha looked at her with the same suspicious eyes as he had before. "He better not be anyone…" He mumbled.
"Why do you care anyway?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha blushed and quickly answered, "Wha-what's that supposed to mean?" He exclaimed.
"Look, just in there!" Kagome ordered and pushed Inuyasha back into the building.
"Okay, okay, I'm going! I'm going! Jeeezzzz! Hey stop pushing! I said: I'M GOING!" Inuyasha hollered. "Jeeezzzz!"
Kagome watched as Inuyasha stomped into the building's lobby and up a pair of stairs.
Whew, She thought. THAT was a CLOSE one! And with that, she set off to the WacDonald's to meet Hojo for her date, feeling a bit guilty for lying to Inuyasha.
"No." Kagome told herself firmly. "It is best that Inuyasha doesn't know about…"
"Hojo." Inuyasha angrily muttered the name in a low voice as he made his way up the steep stairs.
"Damn this Hojo person…Now I have to kill Koga and this Hojo..." Inuyasha said Hojo's name with distaste and hate and jealousy mixed together. "How could Kagome like this Hojo anyway?"
"Hmmmppphhh…" Inuyasha growled as a tall man rushed past him, going down the stairs that he was going up. "Hojo."
"Huh? Yeah? Did you call sir?" The tall man that had been hurrying past suddenly stopped and turned around to face Inuyasha. "Did you call me?" He repeated.
