Chapter 25: Our dance
About 15 minutes later they arrived at the restaurant.
Kagome gasped, "Inuyasha… you took me to the 'Roiyaru-akuma'!"
Inuyasha smiled at the sparkle in Kagome's eyes. She looked like the happiest woman in the world at the moment.
Inuyasha opened the door for Kagome and walked in behind her.
It was amazing; there was a dance floor with a DJ playing different romantic songs. There were couples dancing, or sipping champagne or eating their meals. Kagome walked beside Inuyasha following him to the host's stand.
"Good evening and welcome to Roiyaru-akuma, might I have your name please?"
"Takashi. Inu-no-tashio Takashi."
The host's eyes widened, "oh Takashi-sama, we have been waiting for your arrival. Right this way please."
Inuyasha and Kagome followed the host.
"Inu-no-tashio?"
Inuyasha snickered, "Hehe yea, I forgot to mention you have to be over 21 to get in here 'cause all the drinks are wine and champagne, besides water."
"Oh, well that explains it." Kagome said as Inuyasha took out her chair for her.
He chuckled as Kagome sat down then took his own seat.
Kagome noticed Inuyasha looked different… his dog-ears were gone.
"Hey Inuyasha?"
"Yea?"
"What happened to your ears?"
Inuyasha smirked, "does Inu-no-tashio have dog ears?"
Kagome just smiled.
A waiter in black dress pants, white shirt and a bow tie, came up to the couple.
"Good evening, may I offer our finest champagne?"
"Please." Inuyasha said.
The waiter filled Kagome's and Inuyasha's glasses halfway then left the bottle in the ice bucket. He took out two menus and put them in front of Inuyasha and Kagome.
"Is there anything else I can get you two?"
Inuyasha shook his head no.
"Ok, Miroku will be your server tonight, have a wonderful evening."
The waiter turned and left.
Inuyasha and Kagome looked at each other with raised eyebrows "Miroku?" They said in unison.
"My, my, my. Lady Kagome, you sure look ravishing tonight. And you Inuyasha, oops sorry, I mean Inu-no-tashio, you look quite dashing."
Kagome and Inuyasha looked up to see Miroku looking at them with an amusing smirk.
"Hehehe, hi ya Miroku." said Inuyasha scratching the back of his neck.
Miroku rolled his eyes, "Yash, you know I wouldn't rat you out. So… what's the occasion?"
Kagome giggled, "remember that bet last week in practice?"
Miroku seemed to understand. "Ah, I see. So would you like to hear our specials?"
They both nodded, "ok, our first special is a delectable Yakizakana grilled to perfection. Then we have Gyoza fried until golden brown, and last but not least our famous Tempura."
He looked up from his note pad, "do you guys need time to decide or are you ready?"
Inuyasha looked at Kagome, "umm I think-"
"Wahhhhhhh!"
Everyone in the restaurant looked over to Kagome and Inuyasha's table. They looked at Miroku who was turning down the volume of a baby monitor on his hip.
"Uhhh Miroku what is that?" Inuyasha asked.
Miroku gave a heavy sigh, "it's Megan, since Sango is babysitting Koji for you guys I had to bring her with me to work, and all she has been doing every time I leave the kitchen is cry."
Kagome gasped, "oh! Miroku I'm so sorry! I had no idea-"
Miroku chuckled, "it's ok Lady Kagome, I'm managing… could you excuse me for just two minutes?"
They nodded.
"Thanks guys, I'll be back in a bit."
Inuyasha and Kagome looked at each other again then burst out in snickers.
"Did you have any idea that Miroku worked here?" Kagome asked.
"Nope… I had no idea," Inuyasha tried to keep his laughter under control.
"Poor Miroku, having to work and look after little Megan."
"Yea I kinda feel sorry for the guy."
"Do you think we could call someone to take her for him?"
Inuyasha flipped his phone out of his pocket, "Way ahead of you babe."
Inuyasha pressed a number and held it to his ear.
"Hey Ayame, its me Yash… yea hey, I was wondering if you could do a favor for us and Miroku… well you see Sango is babysitting Koji for Kaggs and I, so he got stuck with Megan, and he had to work at on the same night… yea… would you mind coming and picking her up so Miroku can work and not get fired 'cuse of us… really? Oh thanks…. Where does he work? Miroku works at 'Roiyaru-akuma'… yea I didn't know either until a few minutes ago… how did we get in? Uh… I'll tell ya later… yea, dress up then ask the host for Miroku and tell him the deal. Ok… Thanks Ayame I owe ya one. Yea… Okay, bye."
He flipped the phone off and put it back into his pocket.
Kagome smiled, "Well done. So what are you going to get?"
Inuyasha looked at the menu, "Hmmm, what about the Wonton ramen?"
He looked up to see Kagome glare at him, "What?"
"You come to the 'Roiyaru-akuma' just to order Ramen?!"
"Fine, then if I can't order Ramen you aren't allowed to order Oden."
Kagome's face fell, "I-you-grrr, fine."
They looked over the menu until Miroku came back and set down a plate of sushi and Onigiri (Rice balls).
"Here are your appetizers, now… Are we ready to order?"
"Wow, so professional Miroku… I'm impressed."
"Thank you Lady Kagome, I do try," he said with gratitude.
Inuyasha just rolled his eyes, "Yea professional, and I didn't see you just grope that waitress when you came out of the kitchen." Inuyasha smirkedas Miroku's face fell.
"I resent that Inuyasha… Ok what will you guys have? Ladies first, Kagome?"
"Umm, I think ill have the Yakisoba."
Miroku wrote that down, "Excellent choice, I hear we have been getting a lot of praise for our Yakisoba tonight, anyway, Inuyasha?"
"I'll have the Tonkatsu."
Miroku nodded, "Great, your orders should be here shortly." He took their menus then turned and back to the kitchen in a brisk walk.
Kagome noticed this, "What's eating him?"
"Megan is crying again," he said simply.
Kagome nodded and understood.
They sat there quietly for a few minutes until Inuyasha broke the silence.
"So Kaggs, what did you do last night?"
Kagome froze; she really didn't want to tell him about Aaron.
"What did I do last night? Uh, I hung out with my… friend."
He nodded, "Your friend, huh. So did you guys have fun?"
"Yea we did."
"What did ya do?" he asked picking up a piece of sushi with his chopsticks.
"We-uh… went out to eat then we… went to t-the club."
"Oh really? Was Aaron DJ-ing?"
Kagome tried to hang on to as many strands of the truth as she could, "Uh yea he was th-there." she replied nervously then sipped her champagne.
Inuyasha popped the piece of sushi into his mouth, "Oh, did he say anything to you, ask you to dance?"
Kagome nibbled on an Onigiri, "Yes, he did."
Inuyasha took a big sip of his champagne, "Did you dance with him?"
"Yes" she whispered.
Inuyasha looked at her, "Ok."
Kagome looked up from her plate shocked, "What? Ok? So… You're not mad that I danced with him?"
Inuyasha raised an eyebrow, "Should I be?"
"No…"
He nodded then also took an Onigiri, "Did you and your friend do any thing special?"
"What do you mean?"
He looked her in the eyes, "You know what I mean Kagome."
"Not really…"
"Come on Kaggs, I can tell what you did last night."
Kagome gasped silently, "Y-you do?"
He leaned forward, "Of course I do."
Kagome sighed and looked down, "Look, Inuyasha I'm sorry I didn't tell you…"
"Its fine." he said simply as he finished off his glass then poured another.
"R-really?"
He shrugged, "Yea, I mean everyone gets drunk at least once."
Kagome finally realized what he was talking about, "Thank Kami he didn't find out about Aaron." she praised inwardly.
"Oh-yea… I guess."
"Its fine, I mean the smell was all over you this morning, I could smell alcohol the moment I stepped into your house… and something else."
"S-something else?"
"You know what I'm talking about Kaggs. Did your friend give it to you?"
"Give what?" now she was REALY confused.
"Don't play stupid Kagome, I know you took E. last night."
"E.?"
"Yea you know Ecstasy?"
"I-uh…"
Inuyasha snickered, "Kagome I'm not mad that you took a drug or got drunk."
"Ok."
"Just don't take anymore drugs…'cuse they can be really intense, trust me I know."
Kagome tipped her head to the side, "You do?"
"Yea, I mean before I knew you I used to do that stuff with Koga, Miroku, Ginta, and Hakkaku all the time. Remember when we were taking you to celebrate you making the team and one of them said I'd probably get so drunk I couldn't walk straight?"
"Yea." She drank the rest of her champagne and let Inuyasha refill it for her.
"Well that used to happen… a lot. And sometimes worse. I quit doing it once I figured out your… secret, 'cuse I didn't want you to find out I did that."
Kagome nodded, "Thanks for being honest with me," she said.
He held her hand across the table, "Anything for you."
"Ok. Here we go; here is your Yakisoba lady Kagome, and your Tonkatsu Inuyasha."
"Anything else I can get you two?"
"No thanks." he nodded
"Thank you Miroku." Kagome said.
"Your welcome, enjoy your meal. I'll talk to you guys later," they waved then Miroku went back to waiting other tables.
Kagome and Inuyasha ate their dishes, while they chatted about the upcoming game on Monday, occasionally sipping champagne.
Soon after they were done with their meal Inuyasha stood up and offered his hand to Kagome.
"Would you care to dance Kaggs?" he asked her.
Kagome took his hand and let him lead her o the dance floor. The song that was playing was 'To where you are' by Josh Groban. They danced silently for about two minutes then the song was over. They clapped with everyone else then they went back to sit down.
When they came back to their table there were two pieces of cheesecake with strawberry sauce that had slices of strawberries around the plate and a small scoop of French vanilla ice cream. They both looked at each other and shrugged. They sat down then Kagome noticed a note.
"Hey look Inuyasha, a note," she picked it up and started reading it.
Thanks for calling Ayame to baby-sit Megan,
I really appreciate it. Here is something to show
my gratitude, on me. Enjoy.
Miroku
"That was sweet." Kagome gushed.
"Feh."
Kagome chuckled then began eating her desert like Inuyasha had… only with smaller bites.
Soon all there was left were crumbs, and a Buss-boy came and took their plates away. They sat there sipping their champagne and just simply chatting until…
"This next dance is dedicated to a very special couple we have here tonight; Mr. Takashi and Miss. Higurashi. Would you please proceed to the dance-floor for a special dance."
Kagome and Inuyasha had confused looks on their faces, but Inuyasha got up anyways and offered his hand. Kagome took it and they gracefully walked to the dance-floor with all eyes on them.
As they passed tables Inuyasha heard people whisper.
"My, what a pretty maiden, he has there."
"Goodness, look at her she is simply stunning!"
"Mr. Takashi sure looks handsome tonight."
"Do you think they are engaged?"
Inuyasha smirked as he heard them whisper about him and Kagome.
They walked to the middle of the dance floor and everyone formed a circle around the couple. The song 'My heart will go on' by Celine Dion started playing. (Music starts now)
Inuyasha put his had around Kagome's waist and took her hand. Kagome put her hand on Inuyasha's shoulder once he took her hand in his; they started moving across the dance floor with grace.
Every night in my dreams I see you, I feel you.
That is how I know you, go on.
Far across the distance and spaces between us
You have come to show you go on.
Inuyasha lead Kagome around the dance floor in a sort of a waltz. They gazed into each other's eyes not looking away.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more, you open the door
And you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.
Other couples joined in the dance, but Kagome and Inuyasha didn't notice. Inuyasha twirled her around the room in his arms then swung her out holding onto only her hand then pulling her back in, then resumed waltzing around.
Love can touch us one time and last for a lifetime,
And never let go till were gone.
Love was when I loved you, one true time, I hold to.
In my life we always go on
They didn't care if everyone was watching them, they didn't care if they didn't watch.
Kagome felt her heart racing; it was beating so fast she thought it would burst. Inuyasha's eyes were so deep and… passionate. It was hard to look away… but she never wanted to look away from those golden eyes of his… never.
Near, far, wherever you are,
I believe that the heart does go on.
Once more you open the door
And you're here in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on.
Inuyasha could feel Kagome's heart beating rapidly. The truth was his own was doing the same thing. 'What is this feeling? I can't explain it… I never want to be apart from her. Never. Could it be that… I love her? Do I? Yes. I love Kagome. I really do. And I never want to let her go.'
'Oh Inuyasha, don't ever let me go… I don't know what I'd do. I can't explain it… I just never want him to leave, is this… love? Yes. It is. I'm in love with Inuyasha… deeply in love.'
You're here, there's nothing I fear,
And I know that my heart will go on.
Inuyasha pulled Kagome tighter to him and put his forehead against hers. They stayed like that for a few minutes. Just swaying and being close to one another.
We'll stay forever this way.
You are safe in my heart,
And my heart will go on and on…
The song just said its last words and Inuyasha swung her out again then pulled her back like he did before but this time he put her into a dip. It felt like they stayed like that forever. His nose was touching hers and his eyes were half lidded.
Kagome could feel Inuyasha's breath against her lips. It tingled. She looked at his lips longing for him to kiss her passionately and long. She glanced back into his eyes again.
"Kagome," he breathed, "I love you."
Kagome gasped, 'he… he really does love me.' she slid her hand to Inuyasha's face and cupped his cheek.
"I… I love you too, Inuyasha."
They both smiled. Inuyasha leaned in then took her lips in a sweet passionate kiss. They just stayed like that. Kissing, not even noticing the applause they were being given.
They pulled apart and stood up straight and just stood there looking into each other's eyes as everyone else either watched them or danced with the next song.
"Kagome I don't know how to explain how much I love you."
"Then show me Inuyasha. Show me when I'm ready," she whispered against his lips. Inuyasha captured her lips again in a soul-searing kiss not even caring about the audience they had.
