InuYasha woke up the next morning to something soft shifting in his lap. Confused as to why he was sitting up on Kagome's sofa bed, InuYasha looked around and the events of last night flooded into his mind. Looking down, InuYasha couldn't help but smile at the sight of Kagome curled up with her head in his lap. Unfortunatly, InuYasha knew that if he didn't wake Kagome up, not only would she be late but InuYasha would be late too.
"Oi Kagome," InuYasha prodded Kagome's side, which made the young girl flinch away and giggle.
Seeing an opening for cruel and unusual torture, InuYasha started to run his hands up and down Kagome's sides. Kagome was brought into reality rather abrubtly as her body was racked with laughter as InuYasha tickled her relentlessly.
"O-Ok-ay!" Kagome chocked out between laughs, "I'm up already, cut it out!" Kagome jumped off the bed and made a mad rush for the bathroom before InuYasha could say anything.
After InuYasha got out of the shower he was pleased to be met by a smell that was odd yet very sweet. Walking out into the living area, InuYasha found Kagome by the stove and a pile of flat circle things on the table.
"Breakfast is ready InuYasha," Kagome said, smiling as she sat down, "what's wrong?"
InuYasha eyed the circle things and then looked up at Kagome, "What the hell are these things?"
"What!? Don't tell me you've never had pancakes before!" Kagome looked at InuYasha like he had just grown a second head, "they're really good! Try them!"
InuYasha glared at the "Pancakes" once more before shoving a full one into his mouth, which made Kagome look away before she lost her appietite. After chewing and thinking thouroughly about what he ate, InuYasha decided that he liked the pancakes and scarfed down the rest of them. Kagome was barely able to snag the plate away before he intook that too.
"So, I take it you liked them?" Kagome asked, smiling at the very content looking hanyou as she cleared the table.
"Yeah, that was really good!" InuYasha said, patting his stomach, "It was almost as good as Ramen!"
Kagome rolled her eyes at this, but took it as a compliment, "well, I am glad you liked it,"
"... feh," InuYasha scoffed, trying to hide his softer side from Kagome, who was breaking through his barrier, something that made him slightly uneasy.
"Oh no! I am going to be late!" Kagome yelled, dashing out of the kitchen to grab her pack and then rushing out the door, grabbing InuYasha's collar in the process.
"Oi Kagome! Let me go!" InuYasha yelled, pushing Kagome away from him and walking on his own, unknowingly leaving a shocked Kagome behind.
"Inu-InuYasha..." InuYasha turned and looked at the gaping girl.
"What's your problem, huh?" InuYasha asked, waiting intently.
"That was really, the first time you actually called me by my name, in polite conversation," Kagome said, walking closer to InuYasha, "does that mean that you trust me and like me more?"
"Feh! So what if I used your name!" InuYasha said, turning away, with a slight blush, "I say Miroku and Sango's names all the time, so what's the big deal about your name!?"
"Oh, nothing..." Kagome sighed and continued walking, smiling secretly to herself from having seen InuYasha's blush.
"InuYasha! How can you stand to watch this stuff!?" Kagome asked, appalded at the imagry on the screen.
InuYasha and Kagome decided to rent some movies to watch before they had to go to work at the bar. Tonight was friday so naturally, the bar would be packed and it was the dreaded Karaoke night, a night when the worst singers imaginable decide to try and make InuYasha deaf with their horendious singing. So, what better way to relax before a sure to be stressful night at work than to sit back and watch a movie? For Kagome, however, the experiance was all but relaxing. Since InuYasha and Kagome both picked a movie, curtesy of InuYasha's movie card, Kagome naturally picked a romance and InuYasha picked an action adventure. However, in Kagome's opinion, this movie was nothing but blood and gore.
"Chill out Kagome, this is an awsome movie!" InuYasha said, whose eyes were glued to the screen, "Oh look! That guy just got his head blown off!"
"Ew gross! I can't believe this is based on fact," Kagome said, looking away as a guy got his face blown off.
"Well it is. It's World War II, the American's first attack on D-Day. Didn't you learn about it in world history?" InuYasha asked, eyes still glued to the screen.
"Yes I did!" Kagome said defensivly, noteing the battle was mainly one sided against the... "Wait a minute! Is the only reason you're enjoying this because it's mainly American's that are dying!?"
"No!" InuYasha said a little too quickly, "It has a great plot!"
"Sure it does," Kagome said, vowing never to watch Saving Privet Ryan again.
"Well, look at the time, we're going to be late!" InuYasha said rather quickly, turning off the T.V and heading to the door.
"Hey! Wait for me!" Kagome jumped up from the couch and followed InuYasha out the door to meet Sango and Miroku at the bar.
"God! Shut-up already! You suck!" A random empty beer can flew at the Karaoke singer on the stage, knocking him off.
"Jeez... is it always this bad?" Kagome asked, as Sango and herself served the drinks.
"No," Kagome sighed in relief, "It's usually worse."
"Ugh... I don't think I can stand it anymore!" Kagome said, covering her ears as another singer got onto the stage.
"Hey Kagome, this one isn't too bad!" Sango said, getting Kagome's attention and pointing to the new guy on the stage, who was singing Michael Jackson's Thriller.
"Hey, wait a minute... Isn't that..."
"Kouga!!!" Kagome was interuppted in mid sentence by InuYasha, who jumped off the balcony and yanked the plug out of the wall.
"Uh oh... Miroku let Kouga in..." Sango said, her voice filled with dread, "This is going to be bad..."
"Well hello mutt face... so nice to see you..." Kouga said tauntingly.
"You domesticated bastard.. how dare you show your face here!" InuYasha roared, going for his neck, but being stopped by Kagome.
"My god InuYasha! Relax will you!?" Kagome yelled, grabbing the mic, "The way your acting, you'd think you were jealous of Kouga's singing!"
"Well, natually he would be," Kaouga said, smirking at Kagome, "He knows that I am a much better singer than him. So, how would you like to sing a duet with me and become my woman?"
"Don't you even think about it Kouga!" InuYasha yelled, jumping in between Kagome and Kouga, "How dare you even think that you are better than me at anything!"
"Oh please InuYasha, this is so..."
"Uh, Kagome maybe you should just stay out of this one," Sango prodded, tugging on Kagome's sleeve before she could say anything else.
"But this is silly," Kagome said, looking back at the two steeming demon's in front of her, (well, technically demon and one half I suppose) "I mean, they're arguing over who's the better singer for Kami's sake!"
"It's not as trivial as that Kagome," Sango said, averting Kagome's attention completely, "Canine demons are extremely tense when it comes to territory and it just so happens that Kouga has not only insulted InuYasha, but he has invaded his territory in more ways than one."
"What do you mean 'more ways than one'?" Kagome asked, looking back at the two who looked about ready to rip eachothers heads off.
"Well, you know how InuYasha lost one of his lovers to another man right?" Sango said, looking directly at Kagome.
"Kikyou right?" Kagome said, recieving a nod from Sango.
"Well, now Kouga has insulted him by telling you that he intends to make you his mate," Sango said, nodding knowingly.
"But, how would that insult InuYasha? If anything it would be an insult to me... right?" Kagome said, looking at Sango quizzically.
"Duh, InuYasha harbors feelings for you, and Kouga is trying to deliberatly take you away just like Kikyou," Sango said, watching in amusement as reddness flooded Kagome's face rather indiscreetly, "And besides, their feud has gone on since long before I started working here, and I've been here for more than four years!"
"InuYasha, may I remind you that a bouncers job is to keep the bar in order not for making them into a war z...."
"Shut your face Houshi and stay out of this..." InuYasha all but growled as flexed his hand, cracking his joints in the process(knuckles?).
"Right, shutting up!" Miroku said automatically, backing away near Sango and Kagome.
"See what I mean?" Sango said, effectivly proving her point to Kagome.
"Lets settle this man to man, Demon to Half-breed..." Kouga sneered, throwing the microphone at InuYasha, who skillfully caught it, "The crowd will decide on the better singer... and whoever wins gets to take Kagome on a date."
"What!? Now wait just a minute! InuYasha would never agree to those..."
"Agreed, so lets get started," InuYasha sneered at Kouga confidently, ignoring Kagome's shocked outburst, and going to the Karaoke machine to pick a song.
The Jukebox came to life with the song "Change the World" by V-6( the first InuYasha theme song for those of you who don't know ^_^...(don't feel bad if you don't, I just learned recently myself -_-;)). The fact tha InuYasha was an extremely good singer shocked not only Kagome but the whole bar, including Kouga, to no end. He sounded just like, if not better, than the inger on the track. When he finished he recieved a very high round of applause and then he smirked at the cursing wold Demon triumphantly.
"Looks like I won that little tiff Kouga, you biteless wolf," InuYasha said, sticking his nose in the air and crossing his arms.
"Tff," Kouga scoffed as he headed to the door, "You may be a better singer, but you certainly can't keep your women dog breath."
"Come back here and say that to my face you asshole!" InuYasha stormed, starting after Kouga only to be stopped in his tracks by Kagome.
"Uh... InuYasha, you're the winner..." Kagome said, rather meekly and very pink in the cheeks, quite out of character.
"Yeah, I think I know that," InuYasha said, his cheeks taking on a tinge of color themselves, "What of it?"
"Well, uh..."
"Take your prize InuYasha, you know you want it," Miroku said slyly, only to recieve a spoon thrown directly at his face.
"Miroku, you are such a pervert!" Sango huffed, than looked back at Kagome and InuYasha, "So where are you going on that date, hmm?"
"Oh yeah... that prize.." InuYasha said, as raelization dawned on him, making Kagome blush even more, "Well um..."
A/N: Dum du dum dum! Hah Cliff hanger for you!... *drops to the floor and bows, apologizing profusely* I am so sorry that I haven't updated, I was on vacation you see, to Las Vagas and then Disney Land, and I had now\ accsess to a computer. But, on the brighter side, I have some new ideas that will come into play in the next chapter! HA HA HA! *cough, cough* Ugh, caught a cough while on Vacation... it's all my dad's fault!!!! Or... maybe it's the fact that all the friggin' casino's are filled with smoke from cigaretts! I'm not even old enough to play yet, but to get anywhere in any hotel you have to walk through the massive casino! I swear, it took you twenty minutes to get anywhere in my hotel, and thats provided you knew where you were going! Whoops! Guess I talked a little too much there, sorry again and a million times more. I'll try to get out another chapter asap, but I have to play major catch-up this week... *grumble* stupid school...
Disclaimer: I don't own it... so don't ask... the characters and Places I mean... I mean... I don't know what I mean!... refer to the first chapter if you really want a good disclaimer that badly...
Next Chapter: Sin City Baby, yeah! (told ya I got some knew ideas while away, guess where their going... if you say Disney land I recommend you commit yourself to a mental institution)
"Oi Kagome," InuYasha prodded Kagome's side, which made the young girl flinch away and giggle.
Seeing an opening for cruel and unusual torture, InuYasha started to run his hands up and down Kagome's sides. Kagome was brought into reality rather abrubtly as her body was racked with laughter as InuYasha tickled her relentlessly.
