AN: Thank you for the reviews! I'm so happy!! ^^, anyway, please review
the next chapter ^^, oh yeh, since you all seem to want to know what the
bet is, I've decided to put it here!
-_-_-_-
Kagome awoke to the morning sun in her face, her eyes still droopy from the lack of sleep she had gotten in the past day. She shielded her sensitive eyes from the light rays and quickly changed into a pair of shorts and a T- shirt.
I wonder, Kagome thought, is he still going to be a total jerk or has a little something changed?
Kagome decided to go see for herself, she hopped down the stairs, looking around the room for a glimpse of Inu-yasha. When she didn't find him, she decided to go to the kitchen in search for food.
"Ah, I'm so hungry! I wish mom and dad were here, then I wouldn't have to cook on my own!" Kagome entered the kitchen, smelling something that was slightly burning. "Eh, what's that? Did I forget to turn of the stove again?!" Kagome ran over to the oven, bumping into something on the way, she fell down on her knees while rubbing her forehead.
"Watch out!" Inu-yasha screamed.
"What the. . .? You're awake?" Kagome asked in surprise.
"Of course."
"What the heck are you doing?"
"I'm cooking of course!" Inu-yasha's face was nearly black because of the minor explosions that had been forming in the kitchen. Debris fell off of him, he looked like a mess.
"OK, well just clean up the kitchen, I still need my breakfast."
"But that is yours." Inu-yasha said, pointing towards the big blob of green slime mixed in with unknown black charred things on the table.
Kagome fell down in cold sweat again.
"What? I think it tastes good." Inu-yasha gobbled up the green thing, not forgetting to lick his fingers clean.
Kagome just gulped.
"Umm, I guess, thank you?" Even though it turned out to be a disaster, Kagome was still glad that Inu-yasha was finally beginning to think of other people than himself. She had never expected him to even cook, nonetheless try and make /her/ breakfast.
"Feh!" Inu-yasha retaliated.
Kagome muffled a grin and skipped out of the kitchen.
-_-_-_-
By an hour's time, Inu-yasha started cleaning up the kitchen, his hair still standing on his head because it was still unbrushed since the morning. He grabbed a cleaning cloth and wiped up the floor, but after three scrubs, he stil couldn't see the bottom of it.
"Inu-yasha, here, I'll show you how to do it." Kagome said, grabbing a cleaning cloth of her own, she poured some creamy liquid on it and started to clean up the floor, exposing part of it one by one. The whiteness of the tiles was finally coming back.
Inu-yasha looked down at her, his gaze softening a little, he stayed there for a minute or two, staring a little at the girl that was so absorbed in her work, a small bit of mixed emotion coming up in his head. He quickly shook his head. What the heck am I doing? He asked himself horridly, what was wrong with him today?
"Feh! Just do it on your own!" Inu-yasha quickly turned around and muttered a few curses under his breath.
"What, Inu-yasha!" Kagome growled, "Jerk."
-_-_-_-
Kagome finally got around to cleaning up the whole kitchen, she threw the cloth in the rubbish bin, it was getting old anyway. She sighed and thought about the course of the day, maybe things were going to turn out OK after all, Inu-yasha hadn't even called her "bitch" today. She looked up to the sky and found herself regretting that she had made the bet with Sango, even though for a while, even though he didn't show it, Inu-yasha was trying to be nice. So what would happen if she did win it, and then she had to finish it off? That was just cruel. She couldn't do that. Never. Kagome thought for a while to call up Sango and say that it's off, before someone really would get hurt, but stopped in the middle of things when she remembered that Sango would give her the car.
How stupid, Kagome thought, I'm so idiotic. So a car is worth more to me than Inu-yasha? Kagome smirked at the thought but it immediately turned into a frown when she realized that it was true. She hated how she felt, but somehow, deep inside her heart, she knew that this was her true self.
I used to think I was so nice, Kagome thought, well look at me now.
[{flashback}]
Sango whispered in her ear.
"I bet you, you can't make him of all people, fall in love with you."
"Who?" Kagome asked curiously.
"Inu-yasha."
She gasped at the mention of his name.
"But I'm not finished yet Kagome-chan."
"What's next?"
"When he finally says those words to you. . ."
"Yeh?"
"I want you to laugh at his face. . ."
[{end of flashback}]
A sad smile played on Kagome's lips as her eyes drooped slightly, still sleepy from everything. Her eyes were getting a bit glassy, tears slightly forming from the horror at discovering her own feelings. She wiped them away, rubbing them with her dirty hands.
Inu-yasha came down the stairs, looking inside the kitchen. To his total surprise, it was so clean. He peeked inside and saw Kagome.
"YOU!"
"What?"
"You look like a panda!" Inu-yasha said, laughing while pointing.
"Whady'a mean?"
"Look! That black thing on your face!" Inu-yasha clutched his stomach.
Kagome looked to the shiny metal that was on the stove, and she laughed at her own reflection.
So I can finally laugh with him, Kagome thought, so why am I not plotting to ruin his life right now?
-_-_-_-
The doorbell to the house rang, and Kagome looked at her watch, wasn't it too early for Sango and the others to come? Kagome splashed water on her face and wiped it on a nearby cloth, the doorbell rang again.
"I'm coming!" she cried out, hoping the person outside would hear her.
Kagome opened the door up and sure enough, it wasn't her friends outside.
"Kitsara-basan?" Kagome asked, surprised to see that her mother's friend was here.
"KITSARA-SAN!" If there was one thing that Kitsara hated, it was to be regarded as an old woman
"Eh-heh." Kagome stifled a laugh, it was always so funny when Kitsara did that.
"Kagome, can I ask you a favor?" The woman asked.
"Sure!"
"Thanks. Well, I'll be gone for around a month, so. . ." she brought out her son that was clutching her jeans from behind her. His eyes looked so scared, almost pleading.
"Aww, so cute!" Kagome squealed in delight.
"Thank you! Well, Kagome, can I ask you to take care of him for a month? There's nobody else that can! They're all on holiday." Kitsara said, rubbing her head a little while sweating a little.
"Umm, I have to ask. . ." Kagome got cut off.
"Oh my, kagome-chan! Thank you so much, I have to leave now!" Kitsara sped off from the house, running away from her son and Kagome.
"But-. . ." Kagome failed to get her back.
She was going to have to think up of a heck of an explanation for Inu- yasha.
-_-_-_-
AN: I am so sorry that this chapter is disappointing! School kind of depressed me and suddenly I just didn't have any ideas! I'm also sorry that it's not long either! Please forgive me! Review and if you can, give me some ideas please ^^
P.S: Congratulations to the people that guessed what the bet was right! ^^
