Yuri and Inuyasha decided to get sodas for the girls at the concession stand. Kagome grabbed Inuyasha's hand as he was following Yuri and put money in it. She whispered "you'll need this" and then loudly said "Hurry back!".
Ayumi started up as soon as their backs were turned. "Well well, a fighter. I know you said he was violent but you didn't say it was because he's a martial arts champ. Boy oh boy Kagome, Houjo is going to be so jealous when he finds out!"
"What do you mean, WHEN he finds out?" Kagome asked worriedly. "You'll see what I mean soon enough." Ayumi giggled and then caught a glimpse of Eri and Yuka. "Eri! Yuka!" She said as she ran toward them. "Hey, wait! What did you m-"
"Higurashi! How nice to see you! You look so well! Here, do you have a soda yet, let me get you one!" Kagome's first thought was 'oh-no'. Ayumi must have told Houjo she would be there. How could she? "Um, hello Houjo, nice to see you too."
"YES, she already HAS a soda!" Inuyasha moved in between the two and stuck his elbow in Houjo's chest while handing Kagome her drink. Yuri mumbled something about Ayumi and walked off. "Lets go, Kagome!" Inuyasha growled. He started dragging her away until he realized he didn't know where he was going. "Um, Houjo-kun, this is my friend Inuyasha. Inuyasha, this is my friend Houjo. We go to school together."
Houjo, despite seeing Inuyasha who had clearly come with Kagome, was elated. "Yes, Higurashi and I are friends! Sometimes I tutor her so she can catch up on all of the work she missed when she was sick." "So you two spend a lot of time together, huh?" Inuyasha said with a scowl. "Yep I see her all of the time", Houjo said with a smile. Inuyasha clenched his fist. "Uuuh, Inuyasha, why don't we go find her seats? Ayumi and Yuri should be back soon, OK?" She grabbed Inuyasha's hand and squeezed hard. "Nice seeing you again Houjo-kun!" she said as she dragged Inuyasha back to the seating area.
"Inuyasha, please, try to be civil! He's not a demon you know. If you punch him he WON'T get back up!" Kagome said as she looked down at the ticked, trying to find their seat numbers. "Yeah, I know. It's just that that guy is such an asshole." "Please!" They found their seats and made a comfortable place. Kagome glanced down at the program guide she was handed on the way in. She didn't even know what bands were supposed to play. The first band looked decent. She'd never heard of the second band, and the third band... "Oh NO! Young Love is playing here tonight!!!"
"Isn't that the band that was on TV today?" asked a nervous Inuyasha. "Yeah, but please don't do anything - you'll see, you'll know it isn't them when they come on stage OK? They're just normal people!" "Damnit! We have to go back to your house. We have to get Tetsusiaga. I should have NEVER let you convince me to leave it there! How the hell am I supposed to protect you without it?" "Inuyasha, remember why you are here in my era tonight? The sword is of no use to you tonight. We'll find some excuse to leave early if you want but you just have to be a normal teenager tonight. You promised!", Kagome pleaded. Inuyasha was pacing back and forth in the aisle, not knowing what to do. Should he interfere? What if Yurzska tries to do something to the crowd? How will he protect Kagome in this weak form? Two voices came from behind them, in unison: "Kagome!!!" It was Eri and Yuka, followed by Akumi and Yuri. Akumi introduced everyone, including Inuyasha. "Ooooh, kawaiii!!!", Yuka whispered in Kagome's ear. Kagome blushed. At this point, Inuyasha was socially exhausted. He couldn't force one more fake laugh or be nice to one more stranger bumping into him in the crowded area. All he could do was think about Yurzska and wonder why she chose this disguise.
Yuri and Akumi took their seats next to Kagome and Inuyasha. They waved goodbye to Eri and Yuka, who were sitting a few rows back. The show was starting.
Ayumi started up as soon as their backs were turned. "Well well, a fighter. I know you said he was violent but you didn't say it was because he's a martial arts champ. Boy oh boy Kagome, Houjo is going to be so jealous when he finds out!"
