The Last Dance

Chapter 10

A Blind Mistake


if you're lost you can look-and you will find me
time after time
if you fall I will catch you-I'll be waiting
time after time

(song: time after time by..? from the 80's)

"What the hell is this?"

"Is she okay tonight?"

"Who the hell put grandma as the dj tonight?"

"Whooo! Hell yea, play some more! ! ! ! ! ! !"

Those were the things being said in the audience. The old people loving it and the young people questioning her sanity.

Sango tapped Kagome's shoulder. "Okay, I think it's time I take over the dj system." She said with a smile.

Kagome nodded her head and started walking down the 5 steps towards the dance floor. She tripped on the last step and fell face first on the floor. Everyone ohhed and ahhhed and stared waiting for her next move. She simply picked herself up and frowned. When she saw everyone on the dance floor and the bar looking at her she blushed.

"I'm okay." She muttered. She looked at Sango desperately.

Sango got the message and quickly put on Born This Way by Lady Gaga. Kagome nodded her head and walked to the bar to take over Sango's job.

"What's wrong with you Kagome? Are you depressed? Are you doing drugs? Are you having sex? Are you tired? Are you pmsing? Are-"

Before Miroku could ask any more questions Kagome punched him in his gut. He hunched over as he covered his stomach.

"Nothing, no, no, hell no, yes, and hell no!" She answered quickly.

"What?" He asked.

"Don't ask me stupid questions!"

"Okay, you don't have to take your anger out on me!" He said putting his hands up as if he was surrendering.

Kagome grabbed one of the platters from behind the bar. "I'm not angry!" She said with a growl.

"You sure you're not the dog demon here?"

"No….sorry, I guess. I just have a lot of things on my mind. . ."

Miroku put a hand on her shoulder. "It's alright; if you need to talk about it I'm here."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "No thanks." She walked up to a table. "Ya' need anything?"

"Uh, no." One of the young men at the table replied. Kagome started walking away when she heard that guy start talking about her. "That was hilarious! When she she she fell, it was hilarious! I swear, that was good, that wassss the laugh I've been looking for." The guy next to him started laughing.

Kagome turned around and got in the guys face. "At least I don't have a st-st-st-st-stuttering problem and I don't have a lisp." Kagome said putting emphasis on the s to make it sound like she had a lisp.

The guy was about to reply when Miroku came to save the day. "Please excuse my friend here; she's just having a very bad day." Miroku said dragging her away. "Two drinks on the house for ya'." Miroku said smiling.

The men at the table shrugged, satisfied that they got free drinks.

Miroku turned a stern look Kagome's way. "I think you should go home if you're just going to be rude to the people who give us money."

"But-" Kagome tried to interject.

"What if Myouga was over there? You would've gotten in trouble."

"I know, but I-"

"No, buts. Just leave. I'll see you tomorrow at school."

Kagome sighed, grabbed her bag from the back, and walked out the door.

When she was outside she let out a scream. "This is all stupid Inuyasha's fault!"

She recalled the phone call she had with him right before she came to work.

*flashback*

Ri-

"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked into the phone when Inuyasha picked up.

"Whhhhhhhaaaaaatttttt?" He sounded irritated.

"Sorry, geez, I was just calling to ask you what happened to my bike." She said sweetly.

Inuyasha blinked on the other line. "Bike?"

Kagome's voice got sweeter. "Yea, you said you'd take care of it for me since I got hurt the other day."

". . . .I did take care of it. . ." What the hell was she talking about?

Kagome laughed. "That's funny; because Sango told me she just got back home."

"So?"

"AND so, she said some idiot left their bike in front of her yard and her dad ran over it! That's so what!" Inuyasha's end went silent. "That's right you idiot! You owe me a bike."

"You know I didn't mean to leave it there."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "How about you simply say sorry?"

"How about you simply get over it? It was an old rusty piece of shit."

Kagome gasped. "Jerk, my mom bought that for me!"

"Listen, how about I take you out to make up for it. A date, just you and sexy me." Inuyasha smiled to himself. A date with him normally made people forget something he did wrong. It's worked since he was a kid.

Kagome thought about it. "How about you buy me a new bike, we don't go on a date, and you have a come to Jesus meeting to help you get it through your brain that you did something wrong." With that said Kagome hung up.

*Flashback end*

Kagome walked back to her house in silence, he was just lucky he didn't have to work today. He would've gotten an ear full if he had come. By the time she got home all she wanted to do was kick off her shoes and then crash in bed, but of course she had to do her homework, take a shower to be sanitary, study, and more.

When she was at the top of her stairs she was surprised to see a certain amber eyed male staring at her. She really wasn't in the mood to talk to him right now so she walked passed him towards the Goshinboku tree and pulled out her key.

She then calmly walked to her front door and stuck the key in.

"What, so you're not going to apologize?" Kagome whirled around, did he say what she thought he just said. Surely, she was just hearing things, she must be. "Well, you hung up on me and didn't pick up any of my calls. What's your explanation?"

That ear full she had planned on giving him went out the door after work, she was just too tired. After getting the door open she started to walk in, but was stopped by Inuyasha hand on her wrist.

"So no apology?"

Kagome pinched the skin of his wrist moved it to the side and scratched her head. "You want me to give you an apology?" Kagome asked calmly, Inuyasha nodded his head. Kagome took one deep breath. "You…you….you….I don't have enough energy to deal with you right now, so I'd appreciate it if you left."

"You can't just not apologize."

"It's funny how you break my bike and expect me to give you an apology."

"I'll fix it, chill out."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "I don't want you to fix the stupid bike! The bike isn't the problem, it's you!" She yelled, she at least had enough energy to yell that.

"You're the one with a problem!" He yelled back. "You shouldn't have hung up!"

"I can do what I want!"

"Fine, be a bitch!"

"If you haven't noticed, I'm not a dog!"

"Whatever, just forget I asked you on a date!" He yelled turning to walk away.

Kagome scoffed. "Like I'd ever go out with a guy who plays all of these games. He kisses, then leaves, then kisses, then leaves, what's next? Let me guess, another kiss, and he leaves!"

Inuyasha turned around. "It's not games!"

"Then what the hell do you call it, are you this weird around other girls or am I just that special! ?"

"No, you just don't get it!"

"Get what! ?" Kagome yelled as she walked up to him. "I get that you're just playing with my feelings and I get that you don't like me!" Inuyasha pulled Kagome into a hug. "Get off of me y-"

Before she could finish her sentence his lips were on hers. She knew she wanted to pull back, but she couldn't bring herself to do it. It felt too good.

"What did I tell you last time, Kagome?" He asked huskily.

Kagome's brain felt like mush, she couldn't think straight. "Uh…"

"I told you don't jump to conclusions." He pulled her into a tight hug. "I do like you."

Kagome's senses returned to her, she tried to push him off, but he had a tight grip. "Well, if you like me then why are you playing these games? I don't get it."

Inuyasha chuckled. "That's funny, just a second ago you said you did." He pulled back from the hug and looked at her. "I didn't mean to it's just…"

"What?"

"I like you too much."

"Excuse me?" Kagome wasn't sure if she understood that.

"When I'm around you it feels good and stuff and when I kissed you it's like…yea." Inuyasha said gruffly. He never was good at explaining himself.

Kagome looked into Inuyasha's eyes. "I'm not sure what 'like yea' and 'stuff' is, can you explain it?"

"I knew this was a waste of time." He said turning around to walk down the stairs.

Kagome jerked him back towards her and then planted a kiss on his cheek. "Take your time, it's not like I'm rushing you, I just want to know what you think."

Inuyasha smirked. "I think you are an amazing girl that I would like to go on a date with."

"Hmmmm…date, ne? Well, this amazing girl would like to go on a date with the astounding boy in front of her." Kagome looked down embarrassed with what she said.

Inuyasha's smirk grew, he tilted her chin up and kissed her on the cheek. "I thought you'd never go on a date with me. You are very hypocritical today." Inuyasha said referring to the words Kagome had just spoken.

"Shut up, I can always change my mind."

"You're not going to; meet me at the train station near the water fountain at five on Saturday."

"Okay…What should I wear?"

"Whatever you want!" Kagome smiled, he sounded so happy. He kissed Kagome before looking at his watch. "Shit, time flies when you're having fun, now I gotta' sneak back into my house." He sighed. "Well, I'll see you Saturday!" He said jogging down the stairs.

"Not tomorrow?" Saturday was three days away, why couldn't he just see her tomorrow?

"Eh, I don't think I'll feel like coming to school." He said jogging in place.

"Bad boy!" Kagome hollered after him. "I'll see ya' Saturday!" She said walking into her house.

When she was inside she broke out into a big smile. "After all of that, I'm surprised he didn't ask me to be his girlfriend. Oh well, the wait is worth it."


Saturday came slow as hell for Kagome. She was beyond happy when Friday rolled around.

"Kagome, do you know how to work this problem?" Miroku asked pointing to a problem on the work sheet.

Kagome took it from his hand and looked at it. "Okay, you see the problem?" Miroku nodded his head. "Alright, you're doing well. Now draw the word boy." Miroku gave her a questioning look. "Just do it, the teacher showed us a trick."

He shrugged his shoulders and wrote the word boy in the center of his paper. "Like this?"

"Perfect! And now connect the b to the y."

"How?"

"Just draw a curved line from the top of the b's stem to the y's thing."

"What thing?"

"You see how the y is just a v with a line? Just connect the b's stem to that v."

Miroku frowned. "You're not helping, you're just confusing me."

Kagome sighed. "Just connect the b's stem to the stupid v like this!" Kagome snatched the paper and pencil from him and drew a curved line to connect the b's stem to the y. She rolled her eyes. "Now connect the y's hooky thingy to the b's bottom part of the stem…with a curved line." Miroku connected everything.

"Are you sure this is math?"

Kagome nodded her head and smiled. "Now the last thing you have to do is draw a dot in the b's circle thing and a dot in the o."

Miroku did as she said. "What the hell is this?"

"A boy!" Kagome laughed. "Sango taught me that trick."

"Oh, my Sango." He smiled. "I love her."

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Sure you do."

"I do! She's so….perfect and hot. Not only can she fight, but she has the sweetest personality in the world." He had a dazed look in his eyes.

Kagome's eyes widened. "Do…do you really like her?"

"…I don't know, I think I do."

She smiled. "That's great."

"Should I ask her out?" He asked. "You're like her sister, you should know if she'd like to go on a date with me."

"Nope, you shouldn't."

"Why?"

"Because I'm not going to let you."

"Pardon?" Miroku was confused. Did Kagome have a crush on him?

"Miroku, I've known you since I was a kid. You are one of the most sweetest and awesome people I know." Miroku smiled. "But, you go around staring at other girls and you even kiss random people just because their hot and you grope a bunch of different girls. I'm not going to let you get with Sango just so you can hurt her."

"Do you honestly think I would do that if I was with Sango? Besides, I haven't groped anyone in a while."

"Not at all." Kagome said with an innocent smile. "That's why you should take this talk as a warning." She moved closer to Miroku. "If you hurt her in any way possible I will hunt you down, cut off your balls, and sow them onto a chinchilla."

Miroku was getting kind of scared. "I-"

"I know you wouldn't and that's why I trust you with her. Just know I'm warning you and you know what'll happen. Other than that, go for it and I support you one hundred percent; if you need any help with her just ask me."

Relief flooded into him. "Thanks, Kagome."

"Uh-huh." Kagome turned away from him and started working on her work. "I'll just let you know that if you really do want to ask her out, her dream thing to do for a date is go to an amusement park."

"But there won't be any amusement parks open until spring." (It's winter…fall…whatever)

Kagome just smiled. The bell rang and everyone went their separate ways, except for Miroku, who stayed back still thinking about the amusement park thing.

Today was finally over. Kagome smiled; tomorrow she'd be going on a date with Inuyasha. Kagome was walking out of the school when she felt her cell phone vibrate. She hoped it was Inuyasha calling.

"Hello?" She called into the phone.

"Hey."

Kagome smiled, it may not have been Inuyasha on the phone, but this person was just as good.

"What's up, Sango?"

"What's up is that we have a dance in four days and have no song picked out or outfits or dance!" Sango yelled into the phone.

Kagome pulled her face away from the phone. "Can't we just cancel it?"

"No! Meet me at the school gates so we can go to my house and start practicing! The sooner we practice, the faster we get it over with!"

"Come on, I want to go home and sleep."

"Kagome…" Sango sounded like she was warning her.

"Okay, I'm walking towards the school gates."

"Alright, I'm waiting."

Kagome sighed; she did not want to spend her Friday afternoon dancing her ass of just because her best friend went to America and couldn't practice. She skipped steps down the stairs and waved to Sango.

"Alright, I was thinking we could think of a song as we get outfits and then run to my house and start practicing."

"Okay, Ms. Sango."

Sango pushed Kagome. "Shut up! Anyways, about the songs I was thinking we could do these songs." Sango named a bunch of songs quickly.

Kagome's eyes widened, what the hell did she say? "Okay…How about the third choice?" That was basically the only one she had heard.

"Alright!" Sango said with a smile. "I was hoping that you'd choose that one."

The girls continued small talk as they walked to the mall. Once they were at the mall, they went to the first store they saw.

"Alright, I was thinking we could have something really cute, but kind of playful." Sango said going through a rack.

Kagome nodded. " I see, how about we find a cute little business outfit…like…this? …with this?...Change that…Maybe school girl? Like…after school, just kicking back with friends look?"

Sango snapped her fingers. "That's perfect! Okay, I think I know what I'm wearing." She said pulling things off of a rack.

"Can you help me with mine?" Kagome asked.

"….No, what am I your mother? Ahhh, alright I picked out my outfit!" Sango said holding up her outfit. Sango always had the luck of a leprechaun when it came to choosing outfits. She has never had a problem when it came to that. Hence, why Kagome normally asked her to choose outfits for some things.

Kagome stared at it, it was so cute. "Sangoooooo, that's not fair!"

"No, I'm not going to help you." She said walking to the register.

Kagome frowned. "Whatever, I'll just find a cuter outfit by myself." Kagome said going to another rack.

"Fine, you better have an outfit by the time I get back from the food court."

Kagome nodded and looked through the rack. Why was it so easy for Sango to find something cute, but so hard for her? Kagome smiled when she found a pair of shorts that were cute. She moved through the rack before she got an idea.

She looked around some more until she found a shirt that fit what she was looking for. Her smile brightened as she grabbed it, the last thing she needed was a pair of thigh high socks. After sorting through a bunch of socks she found what she was looking for. For once, it didn't take that long for her to find an outfit, she was beyond ecstatic.

She quickly paid for the clothes and walked outside of the store to wait for Sango.

Shake your money maker li-

Kagome quickly flipped her phone open. "Hello?"

"Hey, are we still on for tomorrow?" Inuyasha's voice rang through the phone.

"Yea, I can't wait. Are you sure I can wear whatever I want? I don't want to wear a hoodie and a pair of sweats and go to a restaurant or something."

Inuyasha chuckled. "No problem, just wear what you want, no one's going to see you."

"Okay?" Kagome was thinking of a couple of places they could go where no one would see them. Star gazing sounded cool. "Alright, bye. Can't wait for the date."

"Neither can I." He said before hanging up

Kagome sighed contentedly. "Yay, I'm going on a date."

"With who?" Kagome turned around to be face to face with Sango. "You didn't tell me you were going on a date! With who? Is it who I think it is? When? Where? Can I come?"

Kagome laughed. "I think the point of going on a date is to be with that someone alone."

"You're right, but who is this lucky guy?"

"….Inuyasha." Kagome whispered.


They walked from the mall to Sango's house and quickly changed into clothes to practice in before walking to Sango's basement. Kagome nodded her head again, she was sure if she nodded her head one more time then her head would fall off. After telling Sango who she was going on a date with, Sango completely gushed about it.

This was Kagome's 'first date', so Sango was going on about the do's and don'ts and random things that could happen along the date.

Kagome did a back bend. "I know that, I'm really happy I can go on a date with the guy I like. Speaking of guys I like, you should go on a date with Miroku."

Sango gave Kagome an odd look before laughing. "You're funny; he doesn't even like me like that."

Kagome kicked back so that she was standing and smiled at Sango. "I promise you he likes you, from what he told me today when we talked about you; he really wants to take you on a date."

"You were talking about me?"

"Alright." Kagome said ignoring her, she put Sango's lap top on her lap. "Since we don't have the CD I just googled the song. Are you ready to start?"

"Karma's going to bite you in the butt for ignoring my question." Sango said doing one last stretch before getting into position.

"Well, tell karma I'm going to kick its butt if it bites mine." Kagome ran to her position before the song started.


Kagome's body ached. It was two in the morning when she got home and now the erg to sleep was at its maximum. She walked in, kicked off her shoes, and crashed on the bed.

"I can't believe I practiced until two in the f-ing morning."

She grunted before picking herself up off the bed and grabbing an over sized t-shirt and shorts. She walked into the bathroom, turned on the water, and hopped into the shower unwillingly. After coming out and changing into her large t-shirt and shorts she walked to her bed, climbed in, and sighed. This was heaven to her.

Right when she was about to fall asleep her ringtone went off. Who the hell calls two in the morning? She flipped her phone open.

"Whoever it is you must be stupid to call two in the morning. What do you want?"

"I'm bored."

Kagome sighed. "Inuyasha, what the hell? I'll see you in a bunch of hours, good night,"

"No! I'll die if you hang up! I'm so bored!"

"It's two in the morning! Go the hell to sleep!"

"Why don't you wake the hell up?"

Kagome closed the phone and sighed. Why was he up two in the morning? ! Her ringtone went off again.

"Inuyasha, I swear if you don't go to sleep I'll hit you."

"I was just wondering if we could meet a bit earlier, like around three in the afternoon. I could take you out to lunch, we could go to an arcade or something and then we could go to the main thing I have planned for the date."

"Yea, sure. Good night."

She hung up and then turned off her phone. "Thank God, now there is absolutely no way for me to be bothered."

Kagome was on the brink of falling asleep when she heard a tap at her window.

"God damn shit!" She threw the covers off of her and headed to the window. She was surprised that Inuyasha was sitting on her tree staring at her.

She opened the windows for him to come in and frowned. "What are you doing here? I just want to sleep." Kagome whined.

He jumped in. "I came to start the date." He walked up to her and planted a kiss on her cheek.

"Are you serious? I look a mess with my hair all over the place, a way to big Monkey Joes t-shirt, and I probably have bags under my eyes a-"

Inuyasha cut her off by kissing her. "Do I look like I really care?"

Kagome blushed. "Oh yea!" She pulled away from him. "I should be mad at you!"

"Why?" Inuyasha asked. Last time he checked he had done everything right.

"My Pokémon game got messed up that one time you came over here! It's taking me forever to get back to the Elite Four!"

"I'm sorry?" He laughed on the inside. 'How can I really feel sorry for such a silly thing?'

"It's a serious thing!" She said as if reading his mind. "I wasted thousands of dollars buying crap for my blazakin!"

'What the hell is a blazakin?' He thought. "I'll make it up to you. How about for lunch we go for some ice cream?"

Kagome thought about it. "Hmmmmm…..fine."

"Perfect." Inuyasha yawned as he climbed into her bed.

Kagome looked at him with a confused look. "What are you doing?"

"Oh, you're right." He pulled off his hoodie and snuggled into her bed. "I almost forgot to take off my hoodie; it'd be too hot if I slept with it on."

Kagome crossed her arms. "I meant get the hell out of my comfy bed so I can snuggle into it."

Inuyasha scooted over. "There's enough room for the both of us."

Kagome blushed. "I am not getting into bed with you."

Inuyasha sat up and smirked. "Kagome, you naughty girl. Did you have dirty intentions in mind?"

Kagome's blush reddened. "I-I-I no..I-"

Inuyasha pulled her into bed on top of him. "What a coincidence? So did I."

Kagome's face went bright red. "No!" She shrieked, quickly pulling away.

Inuyasha laughed. "I love messing with you. Listen, I'll stay on my side, you stay on yours." He said drawing an invisible line in the bed. Kagome looked at the line. "I'm really going to think you had dirty intentions if you don't get into this bed. We've done this plenty of times."

"Yea, when Miroku and Sango were here." She said pointedly.

"Do what you want, just know that I am sleeping right here." He pulled the covers back onto him and turned on his side.

He was satisfied when he felt the creek of the bed and Kagome's warm body next to him.

"Oyasumi nasai." (Good Night) Inuyasha sung to her.

Kagome mumbled good night before turning on her side so that she wouldn't see him. She scooted the farthest she could away from him.

Five, Seven, fifteen minutes passed by. Kagome couldn't sleep at all.

'It's not fair, the only thing I wanted to do once I got home was sleep and now I can't.' She looked to her side at Inuyasha. She was mad that he was sleeping like a baby while she was too embarrassed to sleep.

The possibility of drool or her sleep talking was big.

She sat up and sighed, she'd just have to go in the living room and sleep on her couch. Right when she was about to get up to leave, she felt something on her lap. She looked down only to see Inuyasha practically hugging her lower half.

"God, why me?" She whispered. She really felt like crying.

She tried to nudge Inuyasha a little, but nothing worked. She knew how that guy in that radio commercial felt when he wanted to drink his coco-cola, but his coco-cola drinking arm was occupied because a guy was sleeping on him.

She didn't want to wake him but it was nearly impossible with him cuddling her like this. She tried to maneuver herself so that she was at least a bit comfortable, but failed.

"Inuyasha, I think it's time you wake up so I can leave." She said.

After five minutes of trying to get comfortable she gave up. She looked down at the sleeping hanyou on her. His long silver hair was sprawled all over the place. She started brushing his hair with her fingers before she moved to his soft ears.

"Inuyasha." Kagome mumbled. "I hate you so much right now."

"The feelings mutual." A groggy voice replied.

Kagome jumped as she watched Inuyasha sit up. He stretched, then yawned. "You were up?"

"I just woke up because someone was touching me in a sexual manner." He yawned one more time before moving back to his side.

"You..you…How can you say I touched you in a sexual manner when you were the one that was latched onto me! I'm the victim here!"

"I have no idea what you're talking about. Just go to sleep." Kagome kicked him under the sheets before getting out of bed. "Oh, so you wanna play dirty?"

Kagome sighed. "I knew I should've kicked you out earlier."

Inuyasha rolled his eyes. "Come back, it's much warmer with you here."

"Get out of my bed and I'll come back in."

Inuyasha shrugged his shoulders and climbed out of bed. Kagome was so surprised that he listened. She happily jumped back into bed and got comfortable. All of that happiness went out the door when she felt Inuyasha get in next to her.

"What are you doing?" Tears were threatening to come out of her eyes.

"Getting in bed, duh."

"Inuyasha, do you want an ugly date?"

"Huh?"

"If I don't get any sleep I will look ugly tomorrow. If you want me to look ugly keep bothering me, you'll see. I will have more bags under my eyes than I already do, my hair won't be done, I'll basically look like what I do now."

"No problem, I'm used to seeing you ugly." That earned him a kick in the thigh. "That was too close to the family jewels for comfort."

"Just shut up."

"Fine." Inuyasha scooted closer to Kagome and wrapped his arms around her while pulling her closer to his chest.

"Get off me." She said blushing.

Inuyasha just pulled her closer. She couldn't say that she wasn't comfortable because she was. She sighed before snuggling closer and smiling. Hopefully, she'd have a good long sleep.


Kagome awoke to birds chirping. She looked to the side to see if Inuyasha was still there. Kagome silently laughed when she saw him sleeping next to her while hugging her Pikachu stuffed doll.

She silently climbed out of bed and went downstairs.

"I could make breakfast." She said going into the kitchen.

She grabbed two bowls, two spoons, a box of Frosted Flakes and Fruity Pebbles and then started pouring cereal into the bowls. She poured milk into her bowl and started eating her cereal. She walked into the living room and sat on the couch. She turned on the tv and turned to cartoon network.

Pokémon Black and White was on. Kagome shook her head.

"Ash, what have they done to you? You started off well with Misty and Brock and now look at you. You're pimpin' with the ladies and because of this I can't catch all of the damn Pokémon that are in the damn games! They make too many Pokémon shows. I'm going to Boomerang." Kagome said changing the channel.

Luckily the old Pokémon was on television. She sighed as she watched ash kick team Rockets ass. After a couple of episodes of Pokémon she heard the creek of the stairs and turned her head to the side.

Inuyasha was coming down the stairs with bed head holding her cell phone.

He cleared his throat. "Your moms calling."

She nodded her head and took the cell phone from him. "You have a bowl of cereal in the kitchen."

"Hello?" She asked picking up her phone.

"Kagome, hunny, how is everything?"

"Good, very good." There wasn't really much she could tell her mom.

Kagome could feel her mother smiling through the phone. "That's good, I'm really sorry I had to leave, I'll be back soon though."

Kagome nodded her head. "Okay."

Inuyasha walked back into the living room and stood near Kagome.

"So….Talk more to your mother, I haven't talked to you in soooo long. I miss you!"

"I know you do, that's why you should work your hardest so you can come back and do your best."

Inuyasha put his arm around Kagome. Kagome looked at him and tried to shrug him off but he wouldn't move. He maneuvered himself so that he was hugging her from behind.

"-sweet. I am so proud to have you as my daughter." Kagome missed part of what her mother was saying because Inuyasha was distracting her.

"Uh-huh. Hold on a sec." Kagome put a hand over the phone. "What the hell? Get off!" Kagome whispered.

"Nah." Inuyasha said pulling her to him.

"I'm back. So how is it where you are?" Kagome shivered involuntarily when Inuyasha kissed her neck. Kagome covered the phone again and kicked him in the thigh.

"Once again, too close to the family jewels." He whispered going into the kitchen.

"-surprise!" Her mother continued.

"What?" Kagome asked.

"I have a surprise for you."

Kagome perked up at hearing the word surprise. "What is it? A dog?"

"No, even better."

"…Food? No, a Pokémon game!"

"Nope…it's…." Kagome turned around when she heard the door knob jingle. The door opened revealing her mother. "Me!"

Kagome looked into the kitchen where Inuyasha stood and then back towards her mother. '! ! ! ! ! ! !' She screamed in her head. "Mommy!" She said running to hug her mother. "I missed you!" She hoped Inuyasha would hide somewhere.

"I missed you too hunny! I bought you a new t-shirt."

"Yes, more clothes. Why don't you go unpack and I'll…do something else…"

"Okay." Her mother said running upstairs.

Kagome ran into the kitchen. "Inuyasha, you gotta get out of here quickly."

"No problem, the door is right there. Just let me finish my cereal."

Kagome shook her head. She turned her head when she heard her mother walking down stairs. "Shit, Inuyasha this is no time to finish cereal. Leave." She said pointing to the other way he could leave. (The kitchen I'm thinking of has two ways, one with a door and one that's just open space? Sorry, does that make sense?)

Kagome ran out of the kitchen to greet her mother right in front of the door. She closed the sliding door behind her and smiled at her mother.

"Can you move? I want to eat." Kagome's mother said trying to get passed her.

"No."

"Ya know? You shouldn't even be here, I told Myouga to watch you, it just hit me. What are you doing here?"

"I…..wanted to watch…."Kagome stalled. "That show you told me not to watch! Yea, they were having a special this morning so…..I…decided to come back and watch it. I spent the night and….it turns out it was a good episode. I learned how to cuss in sign language." (Referring to chapter 3 I think.)

Kagome put her pointer finger, middle finger, and thumb close together and then held them like she was shooting a gun. She pointed them at the TV and turned back to her mom. "I just called that TV an asshole."

"Kagome, I am appalled! You should not be watching this show! What is it called so I can block it?"

Kagome hadn't thought of a title yet. "It's.,..called…." In the middle of Kagome thinking, a long slurp was heard in between the silence.

"What was that?" Her mother asked.

'Damn you Inuyasha!' "Uh…and this is how you say pussy!" Kagome say making a triangle while moving it around.

"Kagome Higurashi!"

"Alright, I'll show you." Kagome dragged her mother up stairs and named a random show.

She prayed to god that Inuyasha would be long gone by the time she got downstairs. Kagome and her mother walked back down stairs and went into the kitchen. She sighed in relief when she saw that Inuyasha was nowhere in sight.

Kagome's mother pulled a granola bar out of the pantry. "I was thinking we could spend the whole day together. Just you and I hanging out."

"That'd be nice, but I already have plans today, sorry."

"It's okay, there's always plenty of time for us to spend together."

Kagome nodded her head. "Yea, well, I'm going to get ready." Kagome said leaving upstairs.

Once she took a quick shower she threw on a cream colored ruffle collar shirt with a pair of black shorts since it'd be a warm day and put on her tan platform heels. She left her hair out and put on a black necklace.

She didn't really feel like getting too dressed up since it was just Inuyasha, so she left it like that. She grabbed her black Yoshi back pack and headed down stairs.

"Alright mom, I'm leaving." Kagome said opening the door.

"Well…bye I guess. I'll see you when you get home."

Kagome nodded and then closed the door behind her. She flipped open her phone to see what the time was. 11:50 flashed on her phone. She sighed, she was so early.

She turned around and went back into her house.


"What the hell is she doing?" Inuyasha asked looking at his watch.

He tapped his foot on the ground impatiently. Kagome was over forty minutes late and she wasn't picking up her cell phone. Inuyasha was considering leaving. He's never been stood up before and frankly, he was pissed.

When he was about to walk away from their meeting spot he heard his name being called. He turned around only to nearly be knocked over by Kagome.

"I am so sorry I'm late! I was ready and everything a bit too early so then I decided to take a nap and I ended up sleeping because I didn't get enough sleep the night before. I'm sorry! I hope I didn't ruin anything that you had planned with me!" Kagome said bowing.

Inuyasha nodded his head. "I'm still mad at you, you're punishment is no date."

Kagome sighed. "I was really looking forward to it too. Sorry again." She said with another bow.

Inuyasha laughed. "I was just kidding, let's go to Ludacris Ice-Cream and get something good."

Kagome perked up. "Okay."

Kagome walked in silence next to Inuyasha. She felt awkward and stiff.

'Oh my gosh…I'm really on a date with him…I wonder what he has planned today…' Kagome started having a conversation inside her head.

She was jerked out of her debate over what ice cream she wanted when she felt something brush against her hand. She instantly jerked her hand back and looked at her hand to see what it was. It would be an understatement to say she felt bad when she realized it was Inuyasha's hand.

"Thanks." He said gruffly walking ahead.

'AAAAAAAAHHHHH! ! ! ! I'm ruining the date by an accident!' Kagome quickly caught up with him. "Sorry, I didn't know it was your hand."

Inuyasha looked at her before rolling his eyes. He held up his hand and waited for her to make a move.

'What the hell? Is he trying to rub it in my face that he has better nails than me?' Kagome stared at the hand with envy.

"Your hand, idiot! Your hand!" He said grabbing hers in his.

"Oh." Kagome murmured.

Kagome wanted to pull her hand back so bad. She was pretty sure it was sweaty and clammy because she was so nervous.

'Calm down, Kagome.' She told herself.

The dry silence that was once between them returned. Kagome looked everywhere but at Inuyasha. While looking at the sky, she nearly tripped over a crack in the side walk. She heard a sound from her right when it happened.

"What was that?" Kagome asked.

"You heard me." Inuyasha said covering his mouth.

Kagome smiled. 'Of course, one way to get him to laugh is to nearly fall.'

"We're here." Inuyasha said walking up to the door and holding it open for her.

"Thank you." Kagome said politely.

She walked in and was greeted with coldness (temperature wise). She loved it. She walked up to the counter to look at what she could order. Inuyasha walked up behind her and looked at the list.

"Why don't we get cake batter with sprinkles? We could share it." Kagome suggested.

"Are you sure you want it? You can get anything else." He asked.

Kagome nodded her head and then thought about it. "You can order it if you want, I mean it's your money and I don't really care what we get, plus were sharing and stuff and I don't want to get something you don't like. That is if you want to share, I don't want to force you into sharing."

"Get what you want and I don't care if we share."

"It's okay you can order."

Inuyasha sighed. "If you don't order, I will personally order some shit in the mail, make it creamy like ice cream, put a cherry on top and force you to eat it."

Kagome looked disgusted. The person behind the counter simply laughed. "Well aren't you guys the cutest couple in the world?"

Kagome blushed. "Sorry about him, he's naturally disgusting."

The employee laughed and waved his hand. "And that's why you love him. If you don't mind me making a suggestion I suggest you get strawberry shortcake. It's sweet and leaves you wondering what the heck is in it. Plus, I'll give you guys' free toppings for that laugh."

Kagome smiled. "Free toppings! Can we get it? That's if you want it though…"

Inuyasha rolled his eyes, how could he say no to the puppy pout? He wanted to try it anyways. "What toppings do you want?"

"A cherry?" She wasn't sure what she wanted on top. "I guess that's it, but you can put whatever you want on it."

He nodded his head. "Alright, you can go grab a table."

"Outside?" She asked.

"If you want."

She smiled and nodded before walking outside.

The young man behind the desk laughed again. "You've got a cute one, you're one lucky man."

"Yeah, I'm trying to get her."

The employee used a scooper to scoop out the ice cream into a big bowl. "Good luck, you might want to hurry before someone steals her away." Inuyasha raised a challenging eye brow. "Not me, I don't even know the girl, but I'm sure someone as cute as that has boys all over her."

Inuyasha nodded his head. He didn't want to think about other boys liking Kagome. He paid for the ice cream and met her outside. He sat down and handed her a spoon before digging in himself.

"So?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah, I have a question for you."

"Ne?"

"Why are you sitting next to me?"

"Well, I only changed seats so it would be easier for me to get ice cream. Is that wrong?"

Inuyasha sighed. 'I have a feeling I'll be sighing a lot today.' "Across, sit across from me! I don't want to have to instruct you through this whole date!"

"Sorry." Kagome mumbled taking a seat in front of him.

They took turns eating from the ice cream quietly. Kagome didn't think this is how a date with Inuyasha would go. He's actually being decent. Who knew it was possible?

Kagome yawned when she felt something bright flash in front of her. She cut off mid yawn and looked at the source. Inuyasha was laughing while looking at a digital camera in his hand. Kagome was utterly confused.

He turned the camera her way. Kagome was shocked at how manly she could look when she yawned. (a/n: I HATE when my friends take embarrassing photos of me!)

"Facebook." Inuyasha said.

Kagome shook her head. "Please don't."

"No promises." He put the camera in his pocket and took a scoop of ice cream with his spoon.

An idea sprung into Kagome's head. She took her spoon and held it up to Inuyasha's cheek. He turned his head to the side a little and got it on his face. Kagome laughed.

"What the hell was that? Were you aiming for my mouth?" Inuyasha asked trying to use his tongue to lick it off.

Kagome shook her head. "Is your mouth all the way over here?" Kagome asked pointing to her cheek.

"No, here let me show you how you do it." Inuyasha grabbed his spoon and scooped up some ice cream.

"Ahhhhhhhh." Kagome said with her mouth open." Inuyasha aimed the spoon at her mouth, and then moved it to the side at the last second. "What the hell was that?"

"Sorry, my hand slipped." Inuyasha said coming to Kagome's side. He got on his knees and bent down in front of her. He pulled Kagome's face towards his and licked her cheek.

Kagome turned blood red. "What the hell ! ? ! ?" She shrieked.

"I was helping you clean it off." He said while eating some of the ice cream.

"You're disgusting!" Kagome grabbed one of the napkins on the table and started clawing at her face.

"And to think you'd be used to it." Inuyasha said with a shrug.

They finished the ice cream with laughs and smiles before leaving to go to the arcade. Once they were there, they paid for a game card and started the fun.

Kagome's Point Of View

Of course I ran to the DDR machine, but Inuyasha objected because he knows he can't win in it. So instead of playing DDR he took me to play air hockey. I must say I had a fun time getting my ass kicked in that game. I normally avoid that game, but with Inuyasha being bipolar while we were playing, it was loads of fun.

He'd scream, "You can do it Kagome! Just hit it with the puck!" and then scream, "Ha, loser I made it in, you really do suck at this game!"

He was such a child.

"Let's play Wheel of Fortune" He suggested.

I'm all for a good game of Wheel of Fortune. He swiped the card and moved aside for me to try. I hit the stop button and got two tickets.

"Yay!" I said taking them out.

"You really think you did good?" He asked.

I rolled my eyes. "I think I did a hella lot better than you could ever do." I patted the seat next to me.

"Is that a challenge Miss. Higurashi.

I smiled playfully. "Why yes, it is."

"What do I get if I hit jack pot?"

I shrugged my shoulders. "I don't know, what do you want?"

"I want you to say 'I love Inuyasha because he is the sexiest man alive!'"

"Oh, so you want me to lie?"

"In these black skinny jeans and red shirt with a bleeding bunny on it, I beg to differ."

I shoved him lightly. "Just play."

He swiped the card and looked at the light that went around. He taped his hand on it whenever the light was close to the jack pot. After a couple of taps he hit the stop button.

I started laughing. "Haha, you loser! You got 10 tickets!"

"That's still more than you!" He said pointing at me.

"So, face it! You're no Charlie Sheen! You can't win."

We both busted out laughing before his face turned stone serious. "I'm going to try again!"

I raised an eye brow. "Why, you know you can't win."

"I'm a Takahashi, I'm going to win. Plus I want to hear you say it."

"Whatever makes you happy, Casanova."


I swear boys have this stupid thing in them. Girls have it to, but it's not like how boys have it. When they have it, they have it bad. It's the thing that kept Inuyasha playing the same damn game for three and a half hours.

Pride

He swears out it was just 'determination', but I still think it's a pride thing. If I would've never have taunted him so badly the first couple of times he lost, he probably wouldn't have spent so much money on that stupid game.

It was fun to watch his ears twitch madly in anger and I'm not going to lie and say his prideful (determined) look wasn't sexy, but what did he get out of playing the same game for so long? What he got was nothing besides tickets...So basically nothing.. He did lose quite a bit though.

He probably lost over two hundred dollars trying to win that game, he's probably close to losing his voice from shouting so many cuss words, and he probably lost the feeling in his ears from them twitching so fast. I know he lost a lot of pride. After playing the same addicting game for over two hours and losing for two hours, I know he lost a big portion of his pride.

Now we're walking to where ever the main place he wanted to take me was.

"Inuyasha, you're not a total loser. You may be a loser, but in my book you're not the biggest." He sent a nasty glare my way. "Well, it takes skill to….win me this stuffed poke' ball...even though you technically didn't win it…."

Since Inuyasha had over a zillion tickets we decided to get something. He said I could get whatever I wanted. I could've gotten an x-box 360 or the old pac man game, but I went with the poke ball because I like Pokémon and I like stuffed things.

That's right; I got the best of both worlds like Hannah Montana.

I interlocked my right hand with his left one. "If you stay sad like this I don't think I wanna go on a date with you. So what, you got beat by a stupid game and the kid across from you got jack pot on his first go. So what if he taunted you and laughed in your face. So what if you have to deal with the feelings of knowing a little kid is better than you. You still have me."

He looked at me and started laughing. "So technically I have nothing?"

I stopped walking and looked at him. Did a sore loser just say I was nothing? He tugged his left hand to erg me to walk on.

"We're almost there." He said smiling. "That joke you just said made my day."

"I can't believe a loser is telling me that I'm nothing."

He kissed my cheek. "And I'm happy I have my nothing."

"You sound stupid." I said wiping my cheek.

He stopped walking. "What, you don't like my kisses?"

"Kisses from a loser?" I scoffed. "I'd rather have that winning little kid kiss me."

Inuyasha raised a brow. "Really? Then I think I should kiss you more."

I shook my head. "I think being a loser is contagious. I'd rather you stay at least two feet away from me."

He yanked me towards him and pulled me close before kissing me on my lips. I have to admit, I wouldn't mind becoming a loser for him.

When we pulled back he took a deep breath. "Nice, I could get used to that. After we turn this corner we should be at our destination."

"Which issssss?" I let it drag on. I'm really excited to see where he's going to take me.

"You'll see."

We started walking and before I knew it I was looking up at a place just beyond stairs.

"Dialogue in the Dark?" I asked. I have never heard of it, it sounds really cool though.

"You'll see. We made it just in time."

We walked up the stairs and then opened the door. There were a bunch of people crowded around. I saw a couple of other couples here. There were only 8 to 14 people.

"Is this a thing for couples?"

Inuyasha shook his head. "No."

"What is this place?" I looked at my surroundings. There were a couple of posters around that said dialogue in the dark with brail underneath. I smiled; this is going to be fun.

A man, probably in his late 20's or early 30's clapped his hands. We fellow couples (and other random people) quieted down.

He smiled. "Hello everyone, I will be you're tour guide today. My name is Soul Takamaki, but just call me Soul. You are here at Dialogue in the Dark to experience what it feels like to be blind, like myself."

I gasped. He was blind? I did not see that coming.

"If you think 'Oh, poor man, he's blind.' I'll let you know that being blind isn't a handicap for me. I embrace my blindness with open arms and hug it like this." He demonstrated a hug in the air.

I started laughing along with the other people.

"I will be your tour guide for this hour and you will enjoy the time you spend with me. You will see and learn all sorts of things. You will learn how to use a cane and learn how scents, temperatures, textures, sounds, and such help people with the ability of not seeing."

"Now." He continued. "I am not your usual tour guide…well, I'm not sure what tour guides you have had, but I don't think you've met one like me before. I will probably only see you guys once, but after today, I'm hoping this little adventure will help you make new friends. Aside from that, what I want is for you guys to line up in single file line horizontally."

Everyone started moving around. I was nearly put two people down from Inuyasha, but he grabbed my hand and pulled me towards him. I am beyond excited, I'm so excited I am literally about to pee on myself.

How Inuyasha thought of such a nice place for a date is beyond me. This place isn't where you take a typical first date so I am beyond ecstatic.

"Thank you for taking me here. I am so happy." I whispered.

"No problem, as long as you're happy."

I nodded my head and leaned against him. This was going to be the best date ever.

"Okay, I'm hoping you guys are in order. I'm going to simply ask you your name, I'm pretty sure that's the easiest thing you could do before we begin."

He went down the row, before walking back and smiling. "Sorry, I forgot. There should be 10 people here right now. I'm going to give you a number, remember it." He started walking down the row again."One, two, three…" And so on.

Inuyasha and I were numbers 9 and 10.

"Now, remember you're number." He went to the beginning of the row. "Tell Soul your name. Just the first name, not last."

"Muso."

"Shiori."

"Mukotsu."

"Miku."

"Byakuya."

"Kanna."

"Abi-Hime"

"Lori."

"Kagome."

"Inuyasha."

He smiled and clapped his hands. "My inferences are that number 10 is a funny guy, number 9 is a sweet girl that's smitten, number 8 is very excited, number 7 could probably care less about this place, number 6 is the quiet type, number 5 is playful, number 4 has some talent, probably with their voice or cooking, number 3 likes to smoke or something, number 2 is a bit sad, and number 1 is really happy to be here. Now tell me if those inferences were correct?"

I nodded my head, how could he guess all of that from just hearing our voices. Sure, most of us are couples here, but how did he know I was smitten? I blushed, this guy is amazing.

He laughed. "It's a gift. The last thing I want you to do for me before I tell you about the rules is get out of order, but still be lined up horizontally. Stand next to some random person." I walked away from Inuyasha and stood next to numbers 4 and sighed. "Now, number 5, tell me the name or names of who is standing next to you."

Number 5 looked at the people around him. "Uh..Trina and Tori?"

"Okay, the people around him, don't say your names, but just say a word."

"Banana." "Incorrect." They said.

"And like he said, you are very incorrect. It looks like you weren't paying attention when people were saying their names."

He crossed his arms."How am I supposed to remember all of these people's names if they only said it once?"

Soul nodded his head. "Alright, number 1 it's your turn."

Soul asked everyone and everyone got it wrong, it was my turn and I was getting nervous."Number 9, you know what to do by now."

I looked at the people next to me and then remembered the beat I made in my head. "I am standing next to…Miku and Lori. Numbers four and eight."

"Say something." He said to the two around me.

"Hot.""Purse."

He clapped his hands. "Correct! See, number 5, it can be done. Now Kagome, name everyone in the line."

I replayed the beat in my head. "Shiori, Inuyasha, Byakuya, Lori, Kagome, Miku, Kanna, Mukotsu, Abi-Hime."

"Everyone say something." Everyone down the line said something. "You got all of those correct. Now tell me, how did you remember all of their names?"

"Well, when people were saying their names I said it in a beat in my head so I could remember."

"Ya' know what? I like you."

I could hear Inuyasha growling from where he was. I gave him a look that meant be quiet and he did his usual 'keh' and then quieted down. The man was probably married so I don't know what he was worrying about. Plus I don't have any interest in guys five years older than me.

"You seem like a bright person." He laughed. "It also seems like the person you're smitten with seems to be 10."

I blushed. Oh my gosh. "How did you know?"

"I know because of the way you said his name. Anyways, on to the rules." He handed us our canes and moved his around. "Okay, that's how you use a cane. Quite obvious isn't it? If you bump into something with the cane, common sense tells you to stop, move the cane around, and avoid the object. If you hit, beat, jab, poke, or slap someone with my cane, I will take it and beat you with it." We all laughed again.

I walked back to Inuyasha's side and listened to the rules. He put his hand around my waist and pulled me closer. Inuyasha is so thoughtful for choosing something like this for us to do. I am beyond happy, nothing could bring me down.

"And those are the rules; we will go through these doors." He said pointing to a pair of doors. "Be prepared for the dark that is soon to come. If you break one of my rules I will set you on fire and toss you out of here and let you die." We all laughed. "Great, now let's go."

Inuyasha and I walked through the doors with the group and looked around. After the doors closed behind us, it was completely dark.

"Damn, I can't see shit in here even with my demon senses."

I giggled. "This must be dark then."

"Okay everyone. You are going to go through a series of things that have to do with your senses. I want each of you to tell me which sense it affects and what is affecting that sense. You all will take turns. Starting with number 1."

"How do I know-"

"You'll know. Just blurt it out when you know."

It was silent for a while before I smelled something.

"The sense is smell and it smells like perfume?" He asked.

"Good."

Right after that I heard birds whistling.

"Hearing and birds singing a tune." Number 2 said.

"Nice."

It went on for a while. I enjoyed hearing and smelling and touching all of the things they had to offer. It was interesting to see how things worked without eye sight.

After that we went to a second room.

"This is a city themed room. (It is just a room, not a real city…) You guys can walk around as if you're in New York and stuff. Listen to the noises around you, and do your best to navigate around. I'll let you guys have fun in here for a while. There are also other people around to help guide you if you need it."

"Ne, let's walk around." I said pulling Inuyasha towards…wherever I was going.

Ever since we've entered this exhibit our hands have been interlocked.

"Alright, how are you liking this date?" He asked.

"Oh, I'm really liking it! I would've never have ever thought you'd take me here. I didn't even know a place like this existed! This is an amazing experience and I'm happy that my date is with you."

He leaned down and kissed the top of my head. "Sorry, I don't know where you're lips are."

"Let me help you then." I grabbed his hand and brushed it against my lips. He bent down and pressed his lips against mine.

"And that is an example of how you use touch to get around!" Soul said laughing from the other side.

I broke away from him quickly and started laughing myself. "I think he is my most favorite tour guide."

"Thank you!" He said still laughing.

Inuyasha and I started walking around a bit more. We listened to the traffic noises and maneuvered ourselves through cars and bikes. I was living quite the experience.

Of course, the fun doesn't last that long.

When Inuyasha and I were in the market clamor I felt something grab my chest. I turned to my side and slapped Inuyasha in the arm. I know it's a first date in all, but I really don't approve of that. He knows how I am about people touching me.

"What?" He asked.

"You know what you did!" I said using the cane to maneuver us to the street again.

"No…I don't."

"Just forget it." I said with a roll of my eyes, guys were such pigs.

As we were about to walk into the street, I feel something stroking my butt before giving it a hard slap. I pushed away from Inuyasha. "Quit it!" I said angrily.

"What are you talking about?" He really sounded like he didn't know.

"You keep touching me! First, it was my chest and now you gave me a pretty hard pat on the ass." When I heard him start growling I knew something was wrong. "What's wrong?" I asked.

"That wasn't me." He hugged me closer to him.

If I would've used my common sense I would've noticed that Inuyasha's left hand was interlocked with mine and his right hand was holding his cane. I moved closer towards him.

"Well, whoever it is knows better now, so let's just continue to have fun." I kissed him on the cheek hoping that would lighten him up a bit.

"Alright, let's just cross the street."

I smiled, kisses are the best. Inuyasha and I were getting used to the place so it was easier to get around. "I like this place."

"I do too."

"You have good-ow!" I was cut off by a very hard squeeze to my chest. That hurt like hell, whoever was doing this was pissing me off.

"What happened? Are you okay?" He asked with worry.

"That person just squeezed my chest the hardest they could." I grabbed his hand tighter. "Let's go tell Soul."

"No." He took his hand out of mine.

Before I knew it I heard a quick whoosh and the sound of someone's bone crack.

"Inuyasha!" I called out. What the hell just happened? I'm pretty sure I can guess, I'm praying I'm wrong though.

He didn't answer. What I'm sure to be a fight was happening right beside me and I couldn't even see. I sighed, he must have smelt and heard the idiot that was touching me.

"What's going on over there? !" I heard Soul and a couple of other of the guides ask.

"Inuyasha, stop!" I could still hear them fighting, grunts and all.

I'm pretty sure people were gathering around so that they could see…hear..the fight that was going on.

I walked closer, not sure where I was going when I felt a sharp pain on my cheek. I let out a scream as I hit the floor.

"Kagome?" Inuyasha was by my side in a heartbeat. "I am so sorry."

Please do not tell me I think what just happened happened. Please tell me my date didn't just punch me in the fucking face. Tears sprang to my eyes instantly as the pain settled in.

This is a lesson to never get in a fight with a boy. That is the hardest punch I have ever received in my whole enter life. I've been in my fair share of fights, but this was a new hell. I feel bad for Rihanna. If Inuyasha's punch was an accident, I wonder how much it hurt when Chris Brown did it on purpose.

"Kagome, are you okay?"

I didn't even feel like talking, my cheek hurt that bad. I just put his hand on my forehead and nodded my head so that he'd know I was okay. Tears were pouring out of my eyes by now. I'm pretty sure the other guides around had taken whoever was touching me out of the place by now.

"Kagome, Inuyasha, out of the room." Soul said.

I kind of expected that. We all left the room and went back to the entrance where there was light. Inuyasha and I explained everything to Soul who nodded his head in understanding.

This sucked. I didn't get to do half of the stuff that they offered here all because there was a stupid pervert going around. I moved the ice on my cheek around.

"Do you know the person who was….ya know?" I asked, I didn't want to say touching me because that just seemed weird.

"It was that guy named Mukotsu. Ring a bell?" Soul asked.

Ewwww! My frown deepened. That nasty little pervert!

"Sorry about this you guys." He handed Inuyasha and I two free tickets to come back anytime.

"Your time was ruined here but I hope you'll come back. I've never had a case like this before. Just know it's normally not like this."

"We'll come back." I said smiling. Oww, I went back into a frown, it hurt to smile.

"Good, I look forward to it. I gotta get back to the other group, but I expect to see…hear… you two here again before those tickets expire."

"Alright, no problem."

"You will." Inuyasha said.

"K', you two get back home safe." He said leaving through the door.

I stood up and pulled Inuyasha with me. "The night is still young, let's go to M.O."

We walked down the stairs and started the walk towards M.O. We walked hand in hand in silence. It was bothering me to no end.

I looked at him and saw his ears pressed flat against his skull, it looked as if he didn't have the cute dog ears I adore. I stopped walking and grabbed his chin so he'd look at me.

"Do you think this is your fault?" I asked removing the ice and pointing to my cheek.

"Well whose fault is it if it's not mine?"

I sighed. "Inuyasha, it's not your fault. It's that stupid Maka or whatever his name is fault."

"But if I wouldn't have acted so rash you wouldn't have gotten hurt!" He fired back.

'I practically walked into myself, but okay.' I looked at him hard. "Tell me, did you do this on purpose?"

"Hell no. I'd never intentionally hurt you!"

"Do you think I'm mad?"

"No, but if you're not mad someone has to be mad for you."

"Inuyasha, just stop! If you didn't do it on purpose then I don't give a shit if you punched me! If I'm not mad why are you still beating yourself up over it! ?"

"Because I couldn't protect you!

"Well maybe-…Excuse me?"

"If I would've noticed that guy earlier you wouldn't have been touched and I wouldn't have punched you!"

"Inuyasha, please don't beat yourself up over something as stupid as accidentally hitting me. You want me to make it even! ?" I punched him softly in the arm. "We're even! I don't care if you punched me or that I was touched. Right now, even up till this point, I still think this is the best date I've ever been on because I'm spending time with you! If you can't get it through your head that you ACCIDENTALY, cough not on purpose cough, hit me then I think that'll be the reason why this date could go wrong."

He stared at me before pulling me into his arms and kissing me. When we pulled back I smiled, even though it hurt like bloody hell.

"See, there's nothing to feel bad about." A flashback of when I slapped Inuyasha at my house party flashed through my mind. We just love to beat each other don't we?

"You are the best girlfriend in the world."

I pulled back from him. "Uh, uh, uh. Mr. Takahashi. Now, I don't recall you ever asking me out. I'd like it if you did, but you haven't yet." I said with a southern bell accent.

"Well, then." He said playing along. I hate to admit it, but he has a better southern bell accent than me. "Would you mind if I made you my-"

"Kagome!"

Inuyasha and I jerked our heads to the side to see someone very unexpected.

EFFFF MYYYYY LIFFFFEEEEEEEEEEE! ! ! ! !

This was an fml moment. I think I might go to that website for kicks and tell people about what is currently going on in front of me.

I am at a loss for words, literally, a loss. I am just staring at him with a confused look.

"Who is that?" Inuyasha asked with a confused look.

I cleared my throat. "That, is my ex boyfriend Kouga."


AUTHOR TIME

Sorry, it took forever. I honestly thought I updated like…last month even though it was impossible because I didn't have a chapter out yet…yea…that made sense.

OHH…AND THE THICK PLOTENESS!...OPPS…

(btw, probably only about 10-15 more chapters since every things finally lifting up)

Well, I had major writers block. I wrote a decent chapter but I deleted it when I thought 'what the hell am I writing? Miroku and Inuyasha…wtf am I writing! ? ! ?' But I will probably write another chapter like that, just a better one.

So I deleted it and trust me I think u guys shud like this chapter a lot more. I spent a lot of time working on it…(not really) :D and that's y I deserve praise! Jk

Well, about Dialogue in the Dark. THIS IS A REAL PLACE! My brother told me about it, and I was like 'oh, that sounds like the shit! I want my first date to be here!' thus, how the date part was born. But yea….and no….but whatever… Sorry, if the chapter sucked, though I liked it…. I think Soul is a hot name …soul eater…..

I HAVE NEVER BEEN THERE….EVER! SO FOR THE LUCKY MOFO'S THAT HAVE BEEN THERE, IF SOMETHING YOU'VE NEVER DONE IS THERE OR SOMETHING I PUT IN THE STORY IS WRONG I APOLOGIZE~
