Chapter Nine: Inuyasha meets Hojo.

Kagome pulled Inuyasha along by his hand walking him down the street thinking back on what he had told her mother.

Her mother caught them walking out of the bathroom. She stood behind them tapping her foot at the two. "Why was you in the bath room with Kagome?" They both turned. "Well you see, I claimed throw the window, its my fault really, but she was dressed." He said trying to cover for them. Her mother stood still a stern look on her face. "Well don't do it again." Kagome sighed she couldn't believe her mom fell for it. Kagome walked pass a store but stopped stepping back and looking into the window to see her friends with Hojo, she blushed and looked at Inuyasha.,who was looking down at their hands blushing a bit. Kagome blinked then looked back at her friends and Hojo witch had seen her and was waving. She jumped back and pulled Inuyasha away from the window and out of sight. "Stay" She ordered then walked into to store smiling.

"Kagome who was that?" Ayumi asked looking past her at the window. Kagome blushed and waved her hands in front of her. "Oh no one, just someone I meet, he doesn't like strangers." She smiled hoping they bought it. "Where is your dog?" They asked. Kagome blinked. "Lost." She looked over at Hojo and smiled.

Inuyasha came into the store and walked up behind Kagome, she looked at everyone then turned around and screamed. "Inuyasha SIT!" She yelled. Inuyasha admittedly sat down and the group titled their head a large question mark over there head. "Don't do that Inuyasha I could have really had a heart attack!" She put her hand over her heart and breathed in. Inuyasha stood back up and looked at her then back at Hojo. "Kagome who is your friend?" Hojo asked. Kagome started to sweat how was she going to explain this one.

"Well… Ummm, he is Inuyasha, my…" She stopped trying to think of an answer when Inuyasha answered for her. "Her Boyfriend." He admitted. Kagome's draw dropped and looked at him dazed. Her friends smiled and nudged Kagome in the shoulder. "Why didn't you tell us about this hunk!?" They complained while Hojo stared at Inuyasha. "Kagome, are we still getting clothes?" He asked. Kagome started to blush and nodded.

"Well all go, beside I can help Inuyasha get some good clothes." Hojo announced. Kagome moaned in frustration.

Hojo pulled Inuyasha off with him while Kagome and her friends stayed in the girls section laughing.

Hojo looked at Inuyasha watching Kagome's every move. "She is a special girl isn't she?" Hojo admitted. Inuyasha nodded not paying attrition as to what he had said. "Do you love her?" He asked. Inuyasha nodded again still not hearing a word he had said. Then a hand was moved in his face. "What!?" Inuyasha growled turning to him. "Looking for cloths come on try these on." He throw him a few clothes and Inuyasha blinked not sure as to what to do. Inuyasha started to take off his shirt until Hojo stopped him. "In the changing room!" He sighed pointing to the room.

"Kagome why didn't you tell us about him!!" Her friends yelled. Kagome blinked and sighed. "Do you love him!?" They keep on. Kagome blushed and waved her hands around. "No, its not like that!" She started to scream when Inuyasha walked over in his new clothes tight black shirt and blue jeans and a necklace of purple purls, he still had the red hat on Kagome made him wear. Kagome blushed and smiled at him. Her friends looked at Inuyasha. "Oh he is so hot!" They spoke to each other.

They started walking home, Inuyasha and Kagome walked together on the way home, Inuyasha holding many bags of clothes in one hand. "So how did you like everything?" Kagome asked looking over at him. Inuyasha looked back at her. "It was cool." He answered. Kagome smiled and grabbed his hand locking there fingers together. "Glad you like everything." She smiled and laid her head on his should. Inuyasha blushed but smiled after a while. "So am I." He answered.
