I Dare You!
Chapter 12: The Rules
***Hallway***
Inuyasha walked down the hallway looking for Kagome. He stopped when he heard a whispered 'Psst! Inuyasha!' from the supply room. He went inside and closed the door.
Miroku sat in between the shelves of paper, glue and other supplies.
"So...what are you up to?" Miroku asked casually.
"I'm going to talk to Kagome." Inuyasha answered. Realizing what he had to do. "I'm going to tell her about the bet."
Miroku stuck out his finger waving it back and forth. "Naughty, naughty. Remember the rules of the bet? Let me refresh your memory. Rule one: no telling Kagome about the bet. Breaking the rules means the other person automatically wins.
Inuyasha swore, punching the shelves. A large stack of paper teetered, then fell on top of Miroku.
Inuyasha left the closet hearing a faint warning behind him. "Don't forget rule two: you can't come right out and tell Kagome you love her..."
***Under a Tree on School Grounds***
Kagome sat on a bench beside Shippo listening to the walkman. She loved the song it was playing. She savored every word.
"climbed up on the rainbow
just to see if I'd fall off
I'm a frosted lemon coward
and I don't know how
no don't know to hold you
without shaking
no I'm not aware of how
I could possibly love you
without aching
yes I give you everything
yes I give you anything
I gave you everything
gotta watch myself
I've gotta love myself
and take care
and so keep the light on before
ya hop into bed
cuz, baby, this is the last
honest look I'll ever give
I saved up all my sunshine
just to see you more clear
I'm a little short on solar
and I haven't given in
no I'm going to hold you anyway
and I'll do it without shaking
yes I'll love you always
and I'll do it without aching
yes I'd give you anything
yes I'd give you anything
I gave you everything
gotta watch myself
I've gotta love myself
and take care
and so keep the light on before
ya hop into bed
cuz, baby, this is the last
honest look I'll ever give
I give you everything
I give you anything
I gave you everything"
Kagome was startled out of her concentration by a light tough on her shoulder. Gasping and turning around she came face to face with Inuyasha. They both blushed lightly. Inuyasha walked around the bench, and sat down next to Shippo.
"Kagome. Can I talk to you IN PRIVATE??" Inuyasha said loudly, hoping Shippo would take the hint.
"Don't worry Inuyasha. There's no one around." Shippo said, looking around the bench.
"Do you miss the point on purpose?" Inuyasha growled. "I meant you! Now! GET LOST!"
Shippo looked at Kagome. She nodded to tell Shippo that she wanted to be alone with Inuyasha.
"Well, if this beast does anything, scream and I'll come rescue you." Shippo said gallantly, barely able to keep a straight face.
Inuyasha growled again, throwing lawn gnome and flower pots after the fleeing fox demon.
Both Inuyasha and Kagome sat purposely not looking at each other. The silence stretched for minutes. Glancing up Kagome's eyes connected with Inuyasha's. They both blushed again and looked down, watching the grass.
"Ummm...I wasn't mad. I never really have ever been mad at you. Just frustrated because...ummmm...I really...care about you...a lot." Inuyasha finished blushing bright red. In turn causing Kagome to blush.
"I really lo-like you to." She answered, blushing, if possible, even redder.
Still staring into Kagome's blue eyes Inuyasha leaned forward. He gently brushed his lips against Kagome's, causing them to both sharply intake their breath.
Inuyasha pulled back clasping Kagome's hands in his. Kagome stared into those golden eyes and thought to herself that she had seen this all before.
Inuyasha sat stunned, unable to move or think. Forgetting about the bet that had caused this all, thinking only about the girl in front of him. He slowly lean forward again...
"Are you guys done talking?" A voice piped up from behind the bush.
Kagome and Inuyasha broke apart just as Shippo can into view. "Why are you guys all red?" He asked, when he received no answer he led Inuyasha and Kagome back to the school. "It must be the sun. Let's go inside." Still no answer. Shippo looked at the practically dead couple and decided to go scout out something more fun to do.
***Later, In the Hall***
Inuyasha leaned beside Kagome's locker, waiting for her to get her binder so they could walk to class together. Kikyo and Sesshomaru walked by, blinked and then walked back to stand in front of Inuyasha.
"Soooo...are you guys going out now?" Kikyo asked, expecting the usual response.
Kagome blushed. "Yah, we are. Is it that obvious?"
Surprised by this answer Kikyo fell silent unable to come up with an answer. Both Inuyasha and Kagome acted so different now.
"Well, the point that you were in ten meters of each other and not fighting was the big clue." Sesshomaru replied for Kikyo.
"I'm glad. I always thought you two would make a great couple."
Inuyasha and Kagome smiled at this then walked to their next class. As soon as they were out of hearing Sesshomaru threw back his head and laughed. "WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!" Then he suddenly stopped laughing and muttered to himself. "It's all going exactly as I planned..."
