Disclaimer: I do not own Inuyasha *tear*
Whoo!!!!!! Okay even though I'm still pretty soar from Swim yesterday I got a 100 on my math quiz which makes up for the D I got on my last quiz so I am extremely happy!!!!!! But not so happy that I forget to apologize. I AM SO SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING! My computer was shot and I am just lucky my parents are computer geniuses to fix it for me to do my last minute projects. Then my friend got me hooked on the Stepanie Plum series and then swim and hey, I'm a forgetful person. But still not an excuse and I am REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY REALLY SORRY!!!!!!! But to now to begin CHAPTER 11!!!!!!!! (P.S Rin's love intrest is introduced!)

Chapter 11: Holy Shit
Just look at the two of them. All comfortable at their usual table secluded in the back of the restart uant in one side of the booth huddled up close together, his arm over her shoulder and her head leaning back on his chest. They were smiling and laughing as she twirled a lock of his long silver hair aimlessly.
I hate those two.
Is that wrong? To hate that your normally playboy of a best friend finally managed to settle down into a real relationship while not many girls don't even look my way. I was staring at them through the kitchen window, too lazy to get started on waiting, with immense jealousy at the moment. Girls don't give clutzy guys with sloppily done black hair. No, guys like me don't-can't- grab the hot girls. We're attracted to them. Drooling over them like puppies.
Speaking of drooling dogs...I could feel the saliva start to drip from the corner of my mouth when- BAM!- she entered. She had midnight hair with purple streaks and was wearing skate clothes, her board hanging loosely in her hand. I first met- technaically I only saw her but just one look was enough to have me hooked-two months ago when I went to pick up a small cake for my mom's birthday at the cafe a block from here that sells extremely overpriced pastries. She was working the counter and took my order and I couldn't take my eyes off her.
I saw her again two weeks ago when i was taking out the trash and she came flying around the corner on her board crashing into me and sending me on my back. I had half a mind to curse out the idiot who knocked the wind out of me but when I looked up and saw her panting over me I was speechless unable to break the stare with those deep brown eyes. She realized that she was on top of me though and- much to my dismay-hopped off and apologized. Her face was beet red when she took off again but I figured it was from her skating. Not many girls blush over me. THough she did shoot me a look over her shoulder before she completely disappeared.
Then I started taking the long way home, past the cafe where she worked just to catch a glimpse of her through the wide front windows. Even when I was running to get home I would slow dont just to see her face. Once when I was jogging past I turned to look for her and thre was looking right at me with wide eyes displayed on her face that read disbelief all over it. I was so captured I forgot to look forward and colided with some fat man with a bag of take out. I was too embarased to look back at her with moo shu pork all over me and took off running again.
So do you understand why I am jealous of Inuyasha? He's perfectly smooth with words and actions and doesn't get takeout all in his hair for staring at a girll too long. Also the girl he likes, likes him so there isn't any wondering like I have to do.
I say thats plenty to be jealous of.

I may be known as a flake that dontates her heart the first hot guy that passes for a week before somebody new catches my eye but that is not true. I do admit I never have long crushes for more than nine days- a huge record for me where Aki was the lucky fellow- but that was before him.
I am now obsessed.
It was when I was-as usual-running late for work and I was flyinging on my board when I made a sharp turn and ran into this guy who was carrying two heavy trashbags. My board slipped from under me and I flew forward knocking us both down to the ground and sending his trashbags flying.
"Owww..." the stranger had moaned his face twisted in pain. Thats when I looked at him.
He had black curly hair that framed and face and long eyelashes. From what I could tell he was pretty tall and medium buildt. Then he opened his eyes and I felt as if the wind had been knocked out of me. Sea green locked me in place drowning me in his gaze.
From then on I was hooked.
I noticed he walked by the cafe on his way home and once we locked eyes, but then he ran into some man and the moment was lost. I even thought of following him home once, or "casually" running into him but that seemed to stalkerish. Last week I scoped out where he worked, the international restaruant Mania, and I've been working up the courage ever since to walk into the midscale restaurant.
Well todays the day.
I sucked in a breath before finally pushing open the door and letting the air conditioning hit me full on.

Life was good.
Emphasis on the word was. I was happily sharing a booth with Inuyasha laughing it up when it all went to hell. Rin stepped in the door and my laughter instantly stopped as I stared wide eyed at Rin who seemed to be searching the restaurant for someone.
There was a reason Inuyasha and I hang out here so much and that reason is that my friends are more comfortable with hanging out at Hamburger Heaven and all of Inuyasha's fake friends are too stuck up to be seen anywhere near a midscale restaurant. It was a perfect no crossing zone so we were alone but here Rin was in her purple streaked hair, proving our philosophy wrong.
"Shit." I mumbled under my breath before pulling away from Inuyasha who looked at me with confusion.
"What?"
"Thats Rin. And Rin means you need to get under the table." I said keeping my eyes glued on Rin's rotating head as she continued to search, and I tried to slowly push Inuyasha under the table.
"WHAT!" Inuyasha yelled loudly, attracting attention and I forgot about my gentle coaxing and quickly shoved him under the table just before Rin spotted me and shot me a smile of relief before heading over.
"Kagome...." Inuyasha complained from under the table and I gave him a quick kick to quiet him.
We hadn't gotten any food or anything to drink yet so I didn't have to worry about making up an exscuse as to why I had food for two on the table. Rin approached the table and took a seat across from me. I could feel Inuyasha pressing up against my legs to avoid making contact with Rin's leg.
"You have no idea how happy I am to see you right now." she said, a look a relief obvious in her features.
"And why exactly are you so happy to see me?"
"I've been walking outside for an hour trying to get the courage to come in here and when I did I felt so out of place because its like what the hell was I thinking but then I saw you and damn. You just saved my ass from looking like a fool."
I could hear Inuyasha snicker from beneath the table and gave him another kick in the leg. "Why were you working up the courage?" I had a pretty good idea it was her new crush of the week possesing her.
"You see there's this guy- Hey don't give me that look!" she demanded probably catching my eyeroll. "Anyways I ran into the guy when I was running late for work and I've been hooked Kagome hooked. Its been TWO WEEKS!" She was leaning over the table now and giving me a serious look. "Kagome I scoped out where he worked, here of course, and I even though of following home! I've completely lost it!"
Now this was serious considering it has been more then nine days and she has even considered following home. This is Rin we're talking about here. This is huge!
"Who is he?"
"I don't kn-" Rin stopped short before and her eyes were glued to somebody who was walking up behind me. "Thats him!" she whispered to me.

If you ever want to find about you girlfriend's friends just hide under the table.

She was sitting with Kagome, who had shoved Inuyasha under the table, and they were talking about something big considering thier facial appearances and the wild gestures the girl was making. I just stood in the kitchen staring at her until my boss came in yelling at me for not working and crap and I was shoved out the kitchen.
Here was my chance.
I got my little pad and pen and slowly made my way over to Kagome's table. I was almost there when her chocolate eyes locked with mind and I had the wind knocked out of me all over again. I almost froze but I knew I only look even stupider if I stopped and just stared at her. That and a total freaky stalker.
I finally made it to the table and looked down at them, her really, and smiled the best smile I could muster.
"Hi welcome to Mania. I'm Dex and I will be your server for the evening."

There they were again. Those sea green eyes that haunted my dreams, making me lost at sea, drowning me with my fantacies. Then to accomapany those eyes was a 200-watt smile blinding me instantly. My mind was trying to take in every feature and I almost forgot to speak. Almost. But when I did it was the stupidest thing ever.
"Dex..." my voice was all day dreamy and fantacising. Not cool and collected at all like I wanted it. It was a totaly embarassing fangirl voice. His smile still went kind of goofy though so I guess that means something.
"Hey Dex." Kaogme said nonchantly with a wave of her hand. "I'll have my usual please and thank you."
She knew him!?
-0-0-0-0-0-
Aww shit.
I have really got to start watching what I say. How am I going to explain to Rin how I know Dex so well and why I've been coming here long enought to have a usual without explaining Inuyasha. Sure this wouldn't be a problem if I had the money to go to a midscale restaurant all the time but I don't so now look at where I am. Stuck.
"Real smart move." I heard Inuyasha mutter from beneath the table and gave him another kick.
"You guys know each other?" Rin asked in disbelief.
"Uhh..."
"Yeah we do but I do not you. " Dex interupted settting a pair of twinkling eyes on Rin. Holy shit, Dex was flirting.
"Oh, I'm a Rin. I fell into you about 2 weeks ago when I was running late for work. Really sorry about that." Rin said with a slight pink tint to her face. Holy shit, Rin was blushing.
"I knew I recognized your chocolate eyes." Dex said smiling again. " So what can I get you?"
"A Sprite and what do you reccomend I should eat?"
"Our terriaki chicken is amazing."
"Sounds good, but what do you reccomend to a girl a little short on money?" Rin asked smiling.
"The terriaki chicken. I'll pay for you." Dex said smiling brightly before heading back over to the kitchen.
-0-0-0-0-0-
What! That cheapskate was actually paying for someone and it wasn't at a fast food resaurant? Holy shit, Dex really likes this girl. Still after all those times I asked to be let off the hook for small things when I forget my wallet he just says, 'Better luck next time.'
"Bastard." I muttered beneath my breath only to recieve another kick from Kagome. I was really getting tired of those stupid kicks so I gave her a tap on the leg back which wasn't really a tap.
I got another kick.
hit.
kick.
hit.
kick.
hit.
"Kagome are you okay?" The girl rin asked?
"Yeah I'm fine just....working my stiff joints is all."
kick.
hit.
k- PULLING, my bad, YANKING OF MY HAIR!!!!
"OWWW!"

I was talking to Kagome when all of a sudden there was some loud cry of help and it sounded like it was coming from under the table.
"What was that?" I asked leaning over about to lift the table cloth when Kagome interupted me.
"That would be Souta changing my ringtone. That pesky little brat." She muttered pulling out her cell phone and hitting ignore.
"Are you sure it was our ring tone because it sounded really close and really alive?"
"I am poso-"
"Order u-!"

I have never been so greatful for Dex's clumsiness then now. He was walking towards our table when, as usual, he lost his footing and went down to the ground sending food and plates everywhere and Rin out of her seat to go help him. Perfect time to speak to Inuyasha.
I slipped under the cloth when Rin wasn't looking and shot a glare at him.
"This would be alot easier if you wouldn't talk so much." I hissed sitting down, leaning my back against one side of the booth and stretching out my legs to the other and Inuyasha did the same.
"I wouldn't talk if I wasn't shoved under the table and kicked at and had my hair almost pulled from my scalp!" He hissed back glaring at me.
"Well you were the one talking!"
"You were the one kicking!"
"You were the one hitting!"
"Because you were kicking!"
"Because you were talking!"
We were now nose to nose glaring at each other.
"Did I tell you, you have nice eyes?" he asked, his glare disappearing and his eyes went all melted golden honey on me.
"Umm...."
"Well you do." he said before placing a his lips to mine.

I was on my hands and knees helping to collect the fallen food and broken glass with Dex.
"Are you okay?" I asked as I put another piece of useless glass on the tray before crawling over to him as he picked up the fallen food in a similar position to mine.
"Yeah. Its not like its the first time this has happened. I'm just lucky the boss here is so cheap and doesn't want to pay too many people more than minimum wage." he said looking up from the ground and giving me a small smile with a tint of red across his cheeks.
"I know what you mean." I said. "I fall on people all the time."
We laughed before going back to our work. I looked in Kagome's direction to ask her to pick up the glass that I had just accidently hit by our table, but saw the table empty and figured she went to get paper towels or something and crawled over to our table.
"Well you do."
Holy shit! The voice was from under the table and it gave me a heartattack.
I quickly lifted the table cloth to see Kagome and some silver hair guy making out.
"Oh my god."
-0-0-0-0-0-
Dammit. That girl lifted the table cloth and saw us.
-0-0-0-0-0-
I had just picked up a piece of a plate when I saw Rin on her hands and knees, table cloth lifted, her eyes wide and jaw dropped.
Oh shit.
