Chapter 8 About two minutes later the trio was out the door heading to the mall. Inuyasha didn't like having to walk but he knew Kagome would allow him to just put her on his back and run there.

Kagome: oh look, there are my friends, let's go say hi.

Kagome tugged on his arm and pulled him over to the 2 girls standing by a water fountain.

Kagome: Hey Shishi. Hey Namika.

One of the girls turned to face Kagome, but when she did all she could do was look at the guys with her.

Shishi: What's up Kagome. Who are these guys?

Kagome: They're the guys who I was telling you about before this is Inuyasha (points to him) and this is Shippou (jumps up on her shoulder). Guys this is Namika and her little sister Shishi. She's about your age Shippou.

Namkia: So why are you all here. (She was looking at Inuyasha the whole time she said that.)

Kagome: We need to buy these guys some new clothes wanna help?

Namika and Shishi: Sure! (Both of their faces lit up with happiness)

Inuyasha and Shippou just looked at each other wondering why the girls were so bent on helping.

Kagome: What kind of look should we give Inuyasha.

Namika: How about a loincloth (daydreaming of that image)

Kagome: (Blushing furiously) Namika! Get your mind out of the gutter, besides he never would go with that! What's gotten into you!

Namika: Oh sorry (now she's blushing) it just you are so lucky to have such a cute boyfriend. And to make it even better for you Shishi likes Shippou.

Kagome: Well uh. he isn't my boyfriend really.

Namika: That's great. Does that mean I can have him?

Kagome: (Blushing 5 shades of red.) Hey wait a minute did you say that Shishi likes Shippou? That is so cute and I can tell that he likes her back.

Namika: Aww two kids in love. It's so sweet. We have to get them together it's just to perfect to pass up.

They both agreed. However they were both unaware of the fact that Inuyasha had heard their whole conversation by mistake. He was still wondering what Kagome's answer was going to be to Namika's last question. He decided to forget it. He laughed at the thought of the girls setting up Shippou with Shishi.

Shippou: Inuyasha what's so funny?

Inuyasha: nothing. 'It's just your going to be set up with your little girlfriend over there'

Kagome: Hey, come here. Namika you help Shippou pick out something in the boy's section. Shishi help me choose something for Inuyasha. Lets meet back here in the middle of the store in half an hour.

They all split up following Kagome's directions. Namika wasn't as happy being with Shippou, but she thought it would be a good time to find out more about him. * * *
