Chapter 13: Party
"Just a pair of jeans?" Inuyasha asked.
"Yup." Kagome replied.
They were in his room getting ready for the party. Well, Inuyasha was getting ready. Kagome was already ready.
Junichi had finally caved into Kagome's begging and allowed Inuyasha back in his room. He was confined there on church days but he let him go to Sunday dinner. Kagome had reminded him of freedom of religion, multiple times, before he had finally given in.(A/N: Just for my reader NekomataHenyou :))
Inuyasha turned and looked at Kagome who was sitting on his bed.
Inuyasha had seen some of the finest woman on the planet and been flirted with and probably slept with most of them, but there was something about Kagome that put them all to shame.
He recently learned the word, 'southern bell' and had to say Kagome deffinately qualified.
Her jeans weren't the faded and stained ones she usually wore. They were tight and bright with some small jewels sewn into the back pockets. Her boots were nice brown and probably the only pair of shoes she owned that weren't dusty. He had never seen the shirt she wore now because she normally worn flannel and/or a T-shirt. It was bright shimmering green and made in a dress like style. The sleeves were short and slightly puffy and she had a nice, again clean and neat, brown hat sitting next to her.
She had on a slight splash of make-up and her hair, usually done in the single large plait down her back, was free and very wavy from all the time it spent in confinement.
Inuyasha threw his best jeans and a red flannel shirt down on his bed. "That all?" he asked.
"Well I would advise some underwear but that is completely up to you." Kagome giggled.
Inuyasha rolled his eyes but he smiled. "Get out so I can get changed."
"Aww." she said in fake disappointment with a smile on her face. "Hurry up. Souta said we're leaving in half an hour with or without you."
"Got it." he said and she left.
"Be back by midnight." Junichi said to the five of them without looking up from the papers he was working on.
"Yes, daddy." Kagome said kissing his cheek. Souta, Miroku, and Sango were going with them.
"Bye dad." Souta called grabbing the good trucks keys.
"Get any scratches on that I'm taking it out on your hide." Junichi said, again without looking.
Inuyasha snickered and said right as they got outside. "Mind if I drive, Souta?"
"Not on your life." he said flatly.
"Woh." he said climbing out of the car and checking out the place where the party was to be held.
It was an old barn, about as unremarkable as the one he had stayed in for about a month.
But it was lit up brighter than a mall on Friday night with music pouring out of the wide open doors. It was surrounded by trucks and people dressed just as casually as them.
Every Friday night
There's a steady cloud of dust
That leads back to a field filled with pick up trucks
Got old Hank cranking
Way up loud
Got coolers in the back
Tail gates down
There's a big fire burning but don't be alarmed
It's just country boys and girls getting down on the farm
"Come on!" Kagome called running out of the truck.
Inuyasha walked after her and saw that the source of the music was not from a big stereo but from a live band.
There was a large area cleared in the center of the barn where people were dancing like they were crazy.
And it wasn't just young people, though that was the majority. There was also some grown adults and he saw about 4 elderly people standing around just talking.
You can have a lot of fun in a New York minute
But there's some things you can't do inside those city limits
Ain't no closing time, ain't no cover charge
Just country boys and girls getting down on the farm
The band roared out.
"Dance with me." Kagome said and grabbed his hand before he could say no.
There were coolers all along one wall filled with ice and drinks and a long white plastic table loaded down with so much food Inuyasha thought it might break under the strain.
Kagome started grooving with him and he found that it wasn't so different from the dancing he was used to. Maybe less bumping and grinding but overall still the same.
You can come as you are
Ain't no dress code
just some rural route rules that you need to know:
don't mess with the bull cause he can get real mean
don't forget to shut the gate, stay outta the beans
if it starts to rain then we'll just head to the barn
we're country boys and girls gettin' down on the farm
Inuyasha was having fun. Something he hadn't had much of since he left the big city.
The press of bodies around him swaying and moving with music causing the air to heat up around them while music pounded in his ear. It was just like his life before.
The song finished with a last lingering note and every one stopped to applaud. Inuyasha had done so as well before realizing he had meant to.
"Kagome check it out!" Sango cried running up to them with a full plate in her hands. "They have ribs."
"Get out." Kagome said grabbing one and taking a big bite." Wow. Those have to be Mrs. Platter's."
"Right in one." Sango pointed to the old people Inuyasha had seen earlier. "She cooked like a million of them and they're almost out."
"Let's go get some." Kagome said grabbing his hand and draggin him away some where again.
He found that he didn't mind.
He watched the band as Kagome loaded both of their plates not thinking how intimate the gesture was because she did it all the time.
Before the band could start another song some one yelled out, "Picking Wildflowers!"
A slow song next? Inuyasha thought.
"Alright, alright." The lead guitar said as the request was met with a roaring approval.
But when the song started it was anything but slow. In fact it might have been much faster than the last song and just as loud.
"Here." Kagome said handing him the paper plates, as she had so use two for more reinforcement.
"Thanks." Inuyasha said looking at the selection she had given him.
Mashed potatoes, some of the famous ribs, a hamburger with cheese, some green beans, and a biscuit.
Inuyasha was starving and dived in.
He had already eaten half the burger by the time Kagome had sat down on a hay bail.
Inuyasha followed suit and watched the dancing crowd happily.
He felt more at home here than on the farm, maybe because he was used to scenes like this.
"Enjoying yourself?" Kagome asked.
Inuyasha could only nod as his mouth was full of potato.
Kagome laughed at him.
Two songs later and both of their plates were finished a slow song came on.
"I love this song, come on." Kagome grabbed his hand and walked him to the dance floor.
Sango and Miroku were dancing with Sango keeping Miroku's hands well in sight, Inuyasha had learned that Miroku had a liking for the back side of a woman's anatomy. Miroku was smiling innocently however as if he had no idea what Sango was doing and why.
Some feet away he saw the detested Kouga, whom he clashed with at every possible moment, dancing with the redhead Ayame but looking like he would much rather not be.
Kagome put his hands on her waist and placed hers on his shoulders. But dancing was not something Inuyasha ever needed help with. Even slow dancing. He found that the so called 'gentler' sex, enjoyed being romanced some times so he had learned that skill pretty quick.
A woman is a mystery
A man just cant understand
Sometimes all it takes to please her
Is the touch of your hand
N' Other times you got to take it slow
And hold her all night long
Heaven knows there's so many ways
A man can go wrong
"Ain't that the truth." Inuyasha mumbled making Kagome laugh.
"It is." he said.
"Well if you know how to treat them right, it's not that hard." Kagome said almost in his ear they were so close.
"The problem is learning that particular skill." he grumbled but he did so with a smile.
Kagome smiled.
Must be doin' somethin' right
I just heard ya sigh
N' Lean into my kiss
And close those deep blue need you eyes
Don't know what I did
To earn a love like this
But baby I must be doin' somethin' right
Inuyasha slowly spun her in a circle than brought her back to him.
"Enjoying yourself?" he asked her with a smile.
Kagome sighed in happiness and nodded.
Was his heart supposed to race like this? He had danced with woman before, slow danced with many of them. He'd had a woman's body pressed against his before. So why was his skin heating up?
Kagome looked at him and smiled gently.
He felt the whole world shift under his feet at the look in her eyes.
For one second he thought it might have been an earthquake but no one else seemed to notice. Then he realized it was inside him that the world had shifted.
Kagome looked up into those eyes, they were looking down so seriously into hers. That gorgeous violet color she had never seen on anyone else before.
He leaned down towards her slightly and brought one hand up and rested it on her cheek.
Kagome didn't speak for fear of breaking the moment. She barely dared to breath.
He was leaning down towards her, he was staring at her lips. What the hell did she put on them to make them that shimmery and silky looking?
Kagome was really holding her breath now, scared to move in case it scared him off.
He was so close now. Just a little farther.
The sound of a helicopter split the air.
