Dreams To Reality

Chapter 8

What Are You Talking About?

'His women?' was the only thing that was going through Kagome's mind. 'Since when have I become his women?' She was about to voice this question to the person who had said this, when a male voice broke the silence.

"Feh, if she is your women, then you should keep a tighter leash on the bitch because she cant seem to stop running into me." Inu-Yasha ground out towards the male.

This made Kagome snap out of the trance that she seemed to be in. She jumped from the ground and spun towards Inu-Yasha saying " I am not a Bitch! You are such an ass. And I didn't mean to run into you and I really wish that I hadn't." Then she rounded on Kouga who had a very smug look on his face. "As for you buddy, when did I become your women? Just because I danced with you that does not make me yours! I am no one's women and just for the record, I don't plan on being yours." With that, Kagome spun around and left back into the apartment, leaving two very stunned men.

Inu-Yasha had a small grin on his face when he finally registered what had been said to the two of them. "It doesn't seem like she was very keen on being 'your women' wolf boy." He couldn't help but feel good at the fact that she had told Kouga off because he had never liked the guy in the first place. Something about the guy just irked him constantly.

"Shows what you know dog breath, she was just flustered because of you being here. She wasn't ready to admit it in front of others yet. I could tell that she wanted me she was just scared to admit it to herself." and with a small smile on his face Kouga returned to the party in order to try and track 'his women' down again.

'What a delusional bastard.' Inu thought to himself as he watched Kouga leave the balcony. 'But I can see why he would want her to be his women.' There was a slight hint of a smile playing on his lips with that thought, but as quickly as it came it was gone again to be replaced with his usual scowl. 'Feh why the hell would I want a stupid wench hanging around with me and why would I want it to be her anyway.' Inu-Yasha continued to ponder this idea to himself but couldn't seem to find an answer that was good enough for him.

*********************************

Shortly after Kagome had left her, Sango had be going around the party trying to avoid Miroku whom she had learned was definitely a lech. 'Why did all the good looking ones have to have some kind of flaw in them?' She thought to herself. 'Well maybe Kagome is having more fun then I am at the moment.'

Since Sango was thinking of other things at the moment, she didn't notice that Miroku had found his way over to her. "Hey Sango, you seemed to have run off before we got a chance to know each other better." Miroku addressed her with a sly smile on his face.

'Why me' was the first thought that went through her head when he spoke. "What do you want from me? I have no desire to know anymore about you. I already know plenty from when I first got here thank you very much." She said to him while poking him in the chest with her finger.

"Why Sango, whatever do you mean?" he asked with an innocent tone. "I only want the pleasure of your company."

"What do I have to do in order to get you to leave me alone?"

"Dance with me"

Sango gave him a look that said she was not going to fall for that one. "Why would I dance with you? That would give you a chance to try and grope me again and I am not up for that let me tell you."

"I promise that I will keep me hands in their proper place. Just one dance so that we can talk and if you don't like me after that, you can leave my presence." Miroku responded to her the smile never leaving his face.

With an exasperated gasp, Sango agreed to his terms. She could tell from the way that he acted no was not going to be an excepted answer and that she would have to do this if she wanted him to leave her alone from now on.

'Yes I will win her over yet I am sure of it.' Miroku thought to himself as he led Sango out to the dance floor.

*********************************

It was about 1 in the morning when Kagome had decided that she had had enough of this party and that she wanted to head back home. She figured that she should tell Sango that she was leaving in case the girl wanted to head back with her. She wasn't to keen on walking back by herself, but she wasn't going to make her friend leave if she was still having a good time. It didn't take her long to find her and it seemed that she was still talking to that guy Miroku that had invited them to the party in the first place.

"Sango I think that I am going to head back, I just wanted to tell you so that you wouldn't be looking for me later on."

"Are you sure that you want to walk back by yourself? I could go back with you it wouldn't be that big a deal." Sango said to her.

"No no it is ok. You stay and have fun and I will see you in the morning." Kagome replied with a smile.

"Okay if you are sure about this." She said with a hint of worry in her voice. But Kagome just smiled at her and turned to head to the door to leave.

On her way there, she saw that Kouga had spotted her. 'Just great I don't want to talk to this idiot at the moment' Kouga came up to Kagome just as she finished that thought. "So where are you heading off to?" He asked her.

"I am heading home, I have things to do tomorrow and have to get some sleep you know." She hoped that he would leave her alone after that answer. She just wanted to go home and go to sleep.

"Well how about I walk you home? I wouldn't want anything to happen to my women you know." He smiled at her.

Kagome's eye started to twitch with that comment. Had he not heard a word that she had said to him earlier? Did he listen to her at all? Apparently not if he was still making comments like that towards her. "Kouga I told you before but apparently you were not listening so let me spell it out for you again. I AM NOT YOU WOMEN! And I do not need you to walk me home." With that she stormed away from Kouga and headed out the front door.

Kouga was shocked again but shrugged it off. 'She will come around soon enough' he thought to himself and continued to wonder around the party.

**************************************

As Kagome exited the party, she saw that someone was sitting in the hallway across from the door. She recognized him as Inu right away. 'Well at least this time I didn't run into him so he wont yell at me again. I cant believe the temper that guys has on him' she thought to herself as she turned to walk down the hallway and exit the building. Just as she started walking she heard him talking to her. "Oi, wench where are you heading by yourself? It is late you know."

Ignoring the fact that he had just called he a wench, she decided that she would answer him "I am heading home. I am tired and I cant take Kouga following me around anymore if you must know".

He raised an eyebrow at her "You are going to go home by yourself?"

"Yeah what is the big deal? I only live like one block from here." She said to him.

"Feh stupid girl. I grew up around here and you don't just walk home alone I don't care how close your apartment is. Especially if you are a girl." He said to her as he started to stand and walk towards her. "I'll walk ya home. I wouldn't want your dead body on my conscience just because you were stupid enough to walk on your own." He told her and proceeded to walk past her.

"Well don't make a hassle for yourself or nothing." Kagome mumbled under her breath as she caught up to him.

"I'm not" he replied with no tone in his voice.

"What?" she asked

"You said don't make a hassle for myself and I am not. I hate parties anyway." Was his reply.

"How." but she was cut off by his answer "I am a hanyou if you hadn't noticed so I can hear a lot better then humans. If you didn't want me to hear that you shouldn't have said it out loud." With that comment said Kagome started to blush. She hadn't meant for him to hear and she had forgotten that he was a hanyou. "Sorry"

"Whatever, lets go I don't want to spend all night doing this." And with that they headed off towards Kagome's place.

Well there you have it. I am sorry about the wait but sometimes it cannot be helped. I hope that you guys review I always look forward to those and I will try not to make you wait so long between chapters.

In answer to a question, this is a Kagome and Inu-Yasha fic and so she will not be with Kouga. I like Kouga don't get me wrong but I just don't see him and Kagome together. I am sure that there is someone out there for him other then her and that he will figure that out soon enough.

Well till the next chapter, bye to all and I love your reviews. They always make me happy and they are what keep me writing these chapters:)
