Chapter 10
They went back to the party. Much to their surprise, it hadn't ended yet. Things were just getting started. The DJ had went on a break, leaving the stage for singing karaoke. On their way into the party, Miroku pulled away from the group for a minute. Finally, he spotted them, sitting at a table.
"Where were you?" Inuyasha asked Miroku
"I just stopped to get a drink."
Just then, the DJ walked over to the table.
"Hey, how's it going?" she asked.
"It's all good." Kagome answered.
"I wanted to apologize for putting you on the spot there."
"It's okay. We just weren't expecting it."
"Well, have you been to this party before?"
"No. We haven't. We're kind of on vacation."
"Oh, well. It's kind of been a tradition for the cutest couple to sing a song together."
Inuyasha and Kagome blushed. "Uh..."
"Oh, I'm Ayame, by the way."
"Nice to meet you."
"Okay. When I get back up there, I'll announce that you'll be singing. It was nice meeting you."
She walked away before they could protest. She sighed. Inuyasha was staring in horror. "I can't sing." he said.
"I'm sure it can't be that bad."
"Can too."
"Can not."
"Can too."
"Can not."
"Can too."
"Can not."
"Can not."
"I can too."
Kagome smirked. "I told you that you could."
Inuyasha rethought what was just said.
"Wait, I mean..."
"And here's the years cutest couple singing their song." Ayame said into the microphone.
Inuyasha swallowed and he got up. Kagome stood up. To 'look like a gentleman', Inuyasha offered his hand to her. She accepted as they walked to the stage. Inuyasha and Kagome were on stage whenever Inuyasha looked around in the crowd and saw Miroku whisper something to Sango and Sango laughed. 'So, it was Miroku who'd planned this.' he thought.
A tune started and Kagome began singing to it.
"We were strangers starting out on a journey.
Never dreaming what we had to go through.
Now here we are.
I'm suddenly standing at the beginning with you."
Inuyasha looked at the little screen ahead of him. It was his turn.
"No one told me,
I was going to find you.
Unexpected,
what you did to my heart.
When I lost hope,
you were there to remind me This is the start."
Kagome looked at him, giving him a look that told him. 'You sing good.'
They sang together:
"Life is a road and I wanna keep going.
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing.
Life is a road, now and forever,
a wonderful journey.
I'll be there when the world stopped turning.
I'll be there when the storm is through.
In the end, I wanna be standing at the beginning with you."
They smiled at each other.
Kagome:
"We were strangers on a crazy adventure."
Inuyasha:
"Never dreaming, how our dreams would come true."
Together:
"Now here we stand.
Unafraid of the future at the beginning with you"
"Life is a road and I wanna keep going.
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing.
Life is a road, now and forever,
a wonderful journey.
I'll be there when the world stopped turning.
I'll be there when the storm is through.
In the end, I wanna be standing at the beginning with you."
Inuyasha and Kagome started dancing a little on the stage.
"I knew there was somebody, somewhere.
Like me alone in the dark Now I know my dream will live on I've been waiting so long Nothing is going to tear us apart."
Inuyasha stopped dancing and put an arm around Kagome's waist. Looking at her, he smiled.
"Life is a road and I wanna keep going.
Love is a river I wanna keep flowing.
Life is a road, now and forever,
a wonderful journey.
I'll be there when the world stopped turning.
I'll be there when the storm is through.
In the end, I wanna be standing at the beginning with you."
Kagome looked over at Inuyasha and smiled. Inuyasha smiled back.
Inuyasha:
"Life is a road and I wanna keep going Love is a river I want to keep going on."
Kagome:
"Starting out on a journey."
Together:
"Life is a road and I wanna keep going Love is a river I wanna keep flowing.
In the end I wanna be standing at the beginning"
The tune softened a bit.
"with you." they sung in a soft voice.
They hummed a little and bowed towards the audience.
Everyone cheered as they finished their song. Ayame smiled at them. "We want to thank you for doing that favor for us."
Inuyasha said, "I have a request."
"What is it?"
"Our friends, Miroku and Sango, wanted to sing as well."
"Well, by all means, Miroku and Sango. Come up here." Miroku froze as well as Sango.
"What?" he said. Inuyasha smirked as him and Kagome walked past him.
"Time for a little pay back, monk."
Miroku was in complete shock. "Why me?" He looked at Sango, who was standing there. "Damn." They slowly walked up to the stage.
Miroku and Sango looked around while a tune began. Everyone had stayed over from Inuyasha and Kagome's song.
Sango:
"When the road gets dark and you can no longer see.
Just let my love throw a spark baby.
Have a little faith in me."
Miroku:
"When the tears you cry are all you can believe.
Just give these loving arms a try baby.
Have a little faith in me.
Sango:
Have a little faith in me.
Have a little faith in me.
Miroku:
Have a little faith in me.
Have a little faith in me.
Sango:
"When your secret heart Cannot speak so easily.
Come here darling From a whisper start Have a little faith in me."
Miroku looked over at Sango. He has had a crush on her for so long.
Miroku:
"When your back's against the wall Just turn around, you will see I will catch you, I will catch your fall Just have a little faith in me."
Both:
"Have a little faith in me Have a little faith in me Have a little faith in me Have a little faith in me"
Miroku:
"Well, I've been loving you for such a long, long time baby Expecting nothing in return Just for you to have a little faith in me."
Sango glanced over to see Miroku staring at her while he sang. He looked so serious like the words he was singing were true.
Sango:
"You see time, time is our friend for you and me Cause for us there is no end All you gotta do is have a little faith in me"
Sango looked back at him, looking in his eyes. He smiled.
Miroku:
"I said I will hold you up. I will hold you up Your strength gives me enough So have a little faith in me"
Sango:
"Hey baby, oh, baby All you gotta do is have a little faith in me."
They finished together.
"All you gotta do is have a little faith in me A little faith in me."
Miroku and Sango ended staring at each other. Cheers were heard from the audience. Sango blushed. They both walked for the stairs. As they walked down the stairs together, Miroku intertwined his hand in hers. She looked at him.
"Have a little faith in me." he whispered.
Sango smiled as they walked back to their table.
Everyone was cheering.
"Well, we had two songs done really well. Wasn't that great folks?"
Whistles and cheers could be hear through-out the city.
