Hopelessly Devoted 2 U AU

By: Kikyo's Lova

AN: I've been getting a lot of emails (not reviews) about this story that hopefully I'll be able to solve:

1.Hopelessly Devoted 2 u is NOT a continuation of Out with the old, In with the new!
2.The main setting of this story takes place in Kyoto, Japan.
3.The fic is Inu/Kik
4.Humans and demons co-exist in the same world (Like Out with the old, In with the new)

Hopelessly Devoted 2 U:

Chapter 3: 3 years is a bitch

"Dammit, Kikyou," muttered Inuyasha as he tried to search for the girl through a sea of people. He stuck his head up high to get a better view, but it wasn't possible; by this time, rush hour had already crowed the streets full of business people. Kikyou was gone.

"I want my fuckin' cell phone!"

He picked up Kikyou's phone and stared at her background, which was a picture of her and her friends posing for a camera. He punched in his number and attempted to call his cell phone, but it went straight to the answering machine, telling Inuyasha that he would have to go on a little journey looking for the fucking cheerleading princess. He had something to do! He knew this delay would mess up his plans for the day.

He began asking people if they knew who Kikyou was or if they knew where she had gone. A couple of the younger kids had helped him out, pointing him to the Performing Arts Center. He wished that he had captured her scent more...he could've met Miroku instead of looking for Kikyou.

He went into the building, then down to the lowest floor. Kikyou, who was dressed in a beautiful kimono now, was dancing in front of a audience of all ages, everyone of her moves perfected gracefully. Inuyasha planned on snatching her up and taking his phone back, but just decided to watch her dance. It made him feel...lighthearted. After she was done from a 20 minute performance, there was a tremendous, almost deafening, amount of applause. She bowed, then hopped off the stage. Inuyasha was leaning on a wall waiting for her.

"Why are you here?" she asked quietly.

Inuyasha tilted his head up and put a hand in his pocket. He gripped her cell phone tightly, sweat beginning to from around his nervous hand.

"You're a pretty good dancer, Kikyou."

"So, you do know my name..."

"How can I not? You're the most popular girl in the school."

"That's a negative. It's my sister."

"Well, only your name is the one that stuck out."

"So...what's your reason for coming here? I know it wasn't to come see me dance."

"No, it wasn't," said Inuyasha, pulling out her cell phone. "This was the real reason why."

Kikyou looked at her cell phone, then looked at Inuyasha again.

"So, you didn't like my dancing?" asked Kikyou innocently.

"No! I did like your dance."

Kikyou smiled deviously and took her cell phone. "I know, so come on."

"Where are we going? Look, I was here to drop off your cell phone, okay? Plus, I got plans with this guy I know..."

"So you're just gonna stand me up?"

"What?!"

"When a girl ask you to do something, like going out with her, you shouldn't deny."

"But, my..."

"But nothing. You're coming with me to the Red Dot."

Inuyasha, noticeably changed his expression after that. "Oh, okay, the Red Dot...then come."

"Why are you so willing to go all of a sudden?"

"Why the hell do you wanna go somewhere with me?"

"Good retaliation. So are we gonna go Mr. Dog Demon?"

"I guess so Ms. Miko Cheerleader. Go ahead and change."

"Uh-huh."

The duo arrived at the Red Dot shortly after Kikyou's dancing performance, quiet to the short walk there. As soon as they walked in the cafe, a male around Inuyasha's age bumped into him and smiled.

"Who's the cute girl beside you? I KNOW you couldn't get a girl this cute with your foul mouth."

"It's been 3 years, and you still got that fuckin' mouth, Miroku."

The two boys shook hands, something Kikyou thought was strange, given that they haven't seen each other in a 3 year period. Kikyou's curiosity quickly transformed into questions.

"So what are you guys? Like relation-wise?"

"We're just merely associates," answered Miroku coldly. Inuyasha nodded.

"Bullshit. For a person that's your 'associate', it's kinda odd to meet 3 years later. You DON'T meet associates on occasion."

"It's a special case. Maybe you'd like to talk to me like that a little later on?"

"Miroku's your name, right? Listen, you should throw your little sex games at some other bitch, cause I HATE a lecherous fuck. Plus, I doubt that you could handle this anyway. It takes a real man to get me."

Inuyasha grinned. "She's got you there monk...and I could see that your lecherous behavior hasn't changed at all."

"But you know of my tragic fate I have to find a woman to bare my child or..."

"Yeah, I know your fuckin' story. I know that you tell women that story so that you can have sex with them. Tell me- Has it worked yet?"

"Does it matter?" Miroku asked, smiling. "I think the story is funny."

"Yeah, I got a real good laugh when I first heard that."

"I know," he said, still smiling. He attention then turned to Kikyou. "You still haven't told me why you're with this perfect creation."

Kikyou blushed at Miroku's comment and Inuyasha growled angrily.

"What the fuck is that supposed to mean?"

"Lets just say that your speaking skills aren't that of girl worthy calibur..."

Inuyasha abruptly snorted. "And yours are?"

"Please don't interupt me again. Anyways, your speaking skills aren't that of girl worthy calibur. ECSPECIALLY someone that looks like her."

"Won't Sana get mad at your womanizing behavior?"

"It isn't womanizing if you're speaking to women respectfully and giving her compliments. Plus, me and Sana broke up around this time last year."

"Why? She seemed to be the only girl that had you in your place."

"Yeah, well a bossy nature is only good in bed. Anywhere else, it gets annoying. Plus, I had my palm read."

"Your palm was read?" asked Kikyou, surprised. "What did it say?"

"It told me to come back to my place of birth and meet with one of my old friends then get settled here again. Then, the girl of my dreams will appear before me."

"More lecherous shit," grumbled Inuyasha.

"Can you stop assuming that everything that's gonna come outta my mouth is lecherous?! In reality, you fuckin' demon, I just wanna settle back down here and had a steady girlfriend."

Almost instantly, Sango came into Kikyou's mind. She smiled to herself.

"I wonder," she blurted, thinking outloud.

"Wonder what?" asked Miroku.

"Huh? Oh, nothing," she answered, quickly becoming quiet again. "Just thinking outloud. Sorry."

"Sana used to do that...to an extreme."

"Well, Inuyasha's treating me to some coffee..."

"I was?!"

"You are now," said Miroku, nudging him. Inuyasha glared at him.

The trio sat down at one of the tables, and a waitress came up to them.

"Inuyasha, your shift isn't now," said the waitress staring at the dog demon.

"Who said it was?"

"Oh, Inuyasha, you work here?" asked Kikyou innocently. Inuyasha nodded.

"My parents are super rich, but I just never really found any interest in materialistic things."

Actually he's never had any interest in anything," said Miroku softly, thinking about the Inuyasha he knew years ago. "He was just the loner who minded his own business. Unfortunately, his foul mouth kinda corrupted him into...what do they call you now?"

"A nobody," he said, answering the question.

"Ah...yeah..."

"Are you guys gonna order?" asked the waitress, still standing in front of the trio.

"Tell me, what's your name?" asked Miroku.

"Kasumi," answered the girl.

"Oh," he replied, now uninterested. "Can I just get some decaf? Cream and sugar, with some hazelnut, por favor?"

"Sure you can," answered Kasumi, writing the order down. "Do you want anything, ma'am?"

"Same as his, please?"

"And you, Inuyasha?"

"Same order, but I don't want decaf coffee. Black will suit me."

"Gotcha," she said, walking away.

"Inuyasha, I don't have a place to crash."

"So?"

"I needa crash with you."

"Not on your life."

"Then I guess its you Ms..."

"Kikyou," she muttered, answering the question. "And I just met you. My mom told me that I'm not allowed to invite strangers in my house. Lecherous strangers at that."

"Inuyasha, I'm serious, I really needa place to stay."

"So lemme get this straight- You just came down here on some dumb fortune?"

"Not fortune, palm reading. And I thought that me and you were best friends?"

"Inuyasha, that would be the benevolent thing for you to do."

Inuyasha's eye twitched for a moment, but he gave in. "Just make sure you don't ever go into my room. EVER!"

"Thanks," he said, smiling. "And thank you too, Kikyou."

"For what?"

"For persuading Mr. Hard Ass over to let me stay with him, cause I know if you wasn't here, I would just be wondering the streets of Kyoto."

"Then move to Tokyo and become a manga artist."

"Yeah...but for the time being, I'm staying with you."

Inuyasha sighed. "Being a 'nobody' was a lot better, cause I didn't have anything to worry about."

Kikyou tossed Inuyasha his cell phone. "Before I forget."

"Gracias, senorita."

"What the hell; are you guys fluent in Spanish?"

"Keh."

The trio conversed for a moment until their orders of coffee were paid (thanks to a very unwilling Inuyasha) and then they left.

The began walking to the bus stop until another girl stood in front of Kikyou for a good minute. Kikyou stared at her back.

"Kikyou, you're hanging out with Mr. Nobody?"

"How about you fuck off, Kaname?"

"You're gonna risk your image to hang out with that loser?"

"Loser? You're calling him a loser? You shouldn't talk; you're my baby sister's slave. All you do is kiss Kagome's ass."

"You're twins."

"28 minutes later, she was born, thus qualifying me as her older sister."

Kaname shook her head. "I'd kill to have your status."

"Kiss Kagome's ass some more; it'll help."

Kaname shrugged her shoulders and walked away. Kikyou spun around, expecting to see Inuyasha and Miroku, but only Miroku was standing there.

"Where'd Inuyasha go?"

"He said he didn't want to fuck up your image...or something like that."

Kikyou sighed. "Inuyasha..."

(I still got my writers block! But I am complying ideas for Out with the old, so keep on checking, okay? Also, I am coming out with a new fic, called "Out with the old, In with the new Chronicles. It has the same background setting as Out with the old, In with the new, except these are just "what if" stories. I think you'll like it. I'll probably post that up before I post up a new chapter of Out with the old, In with the new.)

Always Read and Review!
