Author's Note: Oh my god. GODDAMN IT I APOLOGIZE FOR THE DELAY ONCE AGAIN. SCHOOL LIFE MUST BE GETTING INTO MY HEAD... and I should probably stop typing in all caps now.

Chapter 10

"Let's make use of this time to practice your song for the contest." Sango picked up the black guitar resting on the bed. She and Kagome were at her place that day.

"Okay, but where's your brother?" Kagome looked around.

"Oh, you mean Kohaku? He went out to borrow his friend's drum set. He's gonna help us with your song too."

"Do I really have to?"

"Yes." Another voice spoke out and Miroku came in, casually smiling at the two girls.

"What are you doing here?" Kagome asked.

"Wow, its not like you consider me as a friend at all!" Miroku faked a hurt expression as Sango cuffed her boyfriend on the head.

"You know him. He has this habit of breaking into my house all the time." Then Sango gave the dark haired boy a death glare when she felt his hand close to her, erm, behind. He grinned nervously, taking his hand back. "And being a total pervert."

"Sorry."

"So, this contest starts next Monday before my flight to the US. Care to explain what to do before that?"

"Well for starters, what song inspires you the most?"

"Hmm... that's difficult... I got a lot of favorites." Kagome started to think.

Miroku reached over and took the black guitar into his arms and started strumming it. "How about something that can strike emotion not only you, but to everyone else?"

"Good point. Write that one on your notes." Sango handed Kagome a notebook and pen. "We'll need the pointers."

Then the cry of a Pikachu startled them and Miroku gave another nervous grin before fishing his phone out of his pocket as the girls looked at him with disbelief. "What? I'm a Pokemon gamer. Hold on, I got a call, be right back." He left the room as soon as he answered the call.

"I can't believe that guy. Not only a pervert, but has this weird obsession over Pokemon." (No offense to Pokemon gamers) Sango shook her head.

"Let him. At least its one of the things you can use against him when he tries something, well, Miroku-like." Kagome smiled and set the notebook down on the floor she was sitting on.

Just then Miroku returned, grinning like the idiot he is. "Don't mind me here, girls, just gonna do something important..." he sat down back on the floor and they stared at him suspiciously.

"Something tells me that it wouldn't be good." Sango glared at him warily.

"What did you do?" Kagome demanded.

"You'll see."

The sound of footsteps was then heard. Suddenly the door bolted open, revealing a very pissed off Inuyasha.

Miroku was just smiling calmly. (Face it, he's a certified weirdo)

"What the hell is she doing here?" Inuyasha growled angrily at Kagome, who raised an eyebrow with confusion.

"Okay seriously you perverted idiot, what the effing hell did you just do?!" Sango grabbed Miroku by the collar and shook him harshly.

"Nothing! Just told a couple of lies, that's all!"

"YOU WHAT?!" Now everyone in the room was yelling.

"WHAT DID YOU TELL HIM MIROKU?!" Kagome screeched.

"Uh... I told him that you were here and Subaru came along too... Look, I just wanted to bring him along alright?" Miroku grinned and the girls pounced on him.

Miroku kept his mouth shut the next few hours, a couple of bruises on his face. "Eh, it was worth it."

Inuyasha shook his head with disbelief. "Tell me why you're my friend again?"

*time skip brought to you by Yandere-kun screaming in the background*

"Freak actually can sing, eh?"

"Yup. She's joining the contest before the flight."

The hanyou chuckled. "She couldn't even look after herself from strangers. If she was out there singing, I'd eat up my Nintendo and you tell me that wasn't cake."

"But its true!" Sango slammed her hands on the floor, making them all jump. "Tell him, Kagome."

"No way! He'll probably say something to embarrass me, that dumbass." Kagome frowned and hugged the guitar in her arms tighter.

"I'm here and I can hear you, you know." Inuyasha reminded her.

"I don't care."

"What did I say about talking back at me?"

"Yadda yadda."

"THAT'S IT!" He stood up and walked right up to Kagome. "YOU'RE GOING DOWN, SLAVE!"

"NOT IF YOU CATCH ME FIRST! HAHA!"

Miroku just gave a silent laugh. "I swear, those two were made for each other."

-another time skip brought to you by chibi Inuyasha chasing around chibi Kagome-

Kagome hid inside Sango's closet after a few hours running away from her "master". She stiffled a giggle as she watched from the cracks how he struggled to look for her.

"I'm gonna skin you alive, you little brat!"

'Nope, you ain't.' She thought.

He suddenly stopped and sniffed the air. She silently cursed. 'Damn it, forgot he had demon powers.'

There was the sound of footsteps approaching her hiding place. She shrieked when the door opened up, revealing her.

"There ya are! Gotcha-"

Suddenly the tall boy was pushed inside the closet by, well, Miroku and he locked up the door, chuckling by himself.

"Why did you do that, nitwit?!" Sango stared at the closet, her mind starting to form various images about what was going on inside.

"They needed some quality time. What can I say? I'm a certified matchmaker."

All he received was a punch and a kick from his girlfriend.

"I swear, when I get out of here, I'm going to kill you!" Inuyasha yelled out from the closet.

"Chill you rage quitting douche. Its just a closet." Kagome boredly spoke up.

"AND YOU!" He pointed an accusing finger at her. "YOU STARTED ALL OF THIS SHIT!"

"DID NOT!"

"DID TOO!"

"DID NOT!"

"DID TOO!"

"Want me to kiss you again?" he suddenly asked and she went quiet, her face turning pink.

"N-no way!" she rudely pushed his face away. "You were a jerk the last time! You stole my first kiss!" And with those words her eyes widened and she quickly covered her mouth with her hands.

"You think I didn't know already?" he said darkly, amber eyes glinting with lust. She swallowed nervously, all confidence begining to fade away from her.

"You deserve a bad punishment this time, freak." He began to lean closer to her. She crawled backwards to avoid him, but she felt her back press against the wall, reaching a dead end.

"Stay away from me, o-or else!" she protested. Why was he acting so weird?!

"Or else, what?" he continued crawling towards her slowly, his eyes never leaving hers.

Then everything went silent.

Sango waited for a few moments until she stepped up and started shaking the closet. The door swung open and both Inuyasha and Kagome dropped on the floor.

"Ouch! You didn't have to be so rough!" Kagome exclaimed, but Miroku misunderstood those words as he smiled suggestively. His best friend noticed and joined in.

"Oh, but I knew you liked it rough." he smirked, and the raven haired girl's face went crimson red and she stuttered, turning away from him.

"I HATE YOU SO MUCH!"

"Same here, freak."

*meanwhile*

The snow fell down much moderate and a lone figure watched from the window of his car the group of rowdy teenagers, two of them running around and two of them just standing and watching.

He narrowed his eyes. He knew that with dysfunctionality like that, they would be a difficult lot to handle.

Then without so much a sound, he drove away, a sinister plan in mind.

End Chapter

Author's Note: Never fear! Summer is coming near! So expect more chapters then. My final exams are coming next week so we have a lot of reviewing to do, so I probably won't be updating again for a LONG time. But please keep your patience and thank you for reading.

(Also I noticed that there's so many smiling Miro's here)
