Ch. ? Hojo is a No-Go
(Um I can't remember what chapter this is sorry)
*Gulp*
I walked into the house to where my mom was watching T.V.
"GET HIM IN A HEADLOCK! There ya go!"
"Uh what are you watching?" I stared at me mom who was watching pro wrestling.
She looked at me and quickly switched the channel, "Uh nothing, how was your day honey?"
'Um yeah, I think I don't really want to know', "Uh it was ok, we went to the mall and ran into Hojo, and uh sortaranthecarintoamailbox" I finished the last part of the sentence quickly.
"Huh?" my mom raised an eyebrow; I opened my mouth to answer when Souta entered the room.
"Mom Kagome hit something with her car again" he sat down on the carpet so he could watch me get grounded.
"Really honey?" my mom asked if I had just scraped my knee.
"Uh yeah" maybe she wasn't going to take this as hard as I thought she would.
"Well then you're going to fix it" she said simply.
My jaw dropped "w what?"
"Your going to earn the money to fix it or you will drive around with it like that" then she turned back to the television.
"Why?" uh oh big mistake.
My mom turned around, "You need to take responsibility for what you do, your not always going to have me around to fix your car, now the both of you out" she pointed to the door and we both stalked out. AS soon as I shut the front door I heard her yelling, "Take him down! Go for the stomach!" I shivered, that was something I never wanted to know about my mom.
I walked up to Sango who was nervously pacing in front of my car, she looked at me, "so what's the verdict?"
I gave her a depressed look, "I have to get a job"
Her jaw dropped (seeing a pattern here?) "What?"
"She said I have to fix it or drive with it, and since my shopping money is strictly for clothes make up and shoes, my only choice is to get a job"
Sango gave me a sympathetic look, "it's not that bad, loads of people got jobs"
I gave her a dry look, "but I'm lazy, you've seen me in the morning, it take a crane or bucket of cold water to get me out of my bed"
Sango nodded, "well I've got an idea, since it was sort of my fault too, we'll both get jobs"
I smiled, "Ok but let's get them at the same place, and NO burger king" I cringed, thinking of me in a greasy kitchen asking a person through a drive "welcome to burger king can I take your order?" my brother would have a hay day.
Sango gave me a dry look, "like I would want to work there?"
I sat on the hood of my car and looked at the sky, it was beginning to get dark. Finally Sango said something, "I'll be going then since you need to get ready for your date"
I gave her a curious look, "date?"
Sango looked shocked, "damn girl that mailbox thing must have messed you up, you have a date with Hojo at 7"
I slapped myself in the head, "Oh yeah I forgot"
She waved and walked to her car, "Cya"
I waved back and turned to go get ready for the date, with Hojo, ok so um what in my right mind made do that, I shook my head, 'oh well.'
When seven o'clock rolled around I was seated in my dining room in a shimmery purple dress that hit my knees and had little strappy things in the back.
I smiled, thinking back to when I told my mom about the date:
"Mom I'll be back round ten, probably earlier, got a date"
She smiled, "with Inuyasha?"
"nope we broke, It's with a boy named Hojo"
My mom's jaw dropped and it stayed there, I waved my hands in front of her face and nothing happened, she just sat there.
I blinked coming back to the present, in which my mom was still sitting across the table from me, her jaw still gaping open.
*Ding Dong*
I stood up and grabbed my purse. I opened up the door and smiled, I had to admit he did look handsome.
He smiled, "Good evening Kagome, you look great" I smiled, 't was a change, make that a BIG change from Inuyasha. Hojo was more of a gentleman and well Inuyasha wasn't. Of coarse Inuyasha was an ok guy, when he wasn't being a smug ass overprotective possessive two-timing son of a horse's-' I clenched my fists and stepped outside and followed Hojo to his car.
I notice things about people's car, I don't know why I just do, Hojo had a Maroon Lincoln Mercury, It sort of fit his personality.
Hojo held the door open for me and I slipped in, remembering how Inuyasha had done the same. Then I stupidly smacked myself in the head tree times not noticing the look I was getting from Hojo. Then satisfied I put my hands down in my lap and Hojo drove off.
We arrived at the fancy French restaurant and the Matre'D sat us at a beautiful near a window. I smiled at Hojo he was more romantic than Inuyasha too. I had to grip my dress very hard to stop myself from smacking myself in the head for thinking of him again.
Hojo insisted that I order the lobster, I really don't like guys spending a lot of money on me it makes me feel uncomfortable. So I sat there smiling, eating lobster, and talking about sports, don't get me wrong I love sports but I can't sit there and talk about them for twenty minutes. But other than that I enjoyed the date, but there was no chemistry, Hojo was a sweetheart, but not for me. I mentally checked him off of my list of "Guys who are boyfriend material if you wanted a boyfriend at the moment but you don't so never mind" list.
After dessert, which Hojo and I shared, after putting the fire out. Hojo paid the check and we left.
He walked me up to my door step, he gave me a sad look, "we're not doing this again are we?"
I was taken aback for a second then I smiled and gave him a kiss on the cheek, "we're just not right for each other, I'm sure you'll find the perfect girl"
He nodded, "yeah I thought as much," then he smiled sweetly, "but your wrong, I've already met the perfect girl."
I blushed and gave him a hug before saying good night.
"Moshi Moshi?"
"Hey Sango it's me, Hojo's a no-go"
"I thought so, how'd he take it?"
"actually he was so sweet about it, I definitely want to be his friend though."
"So got any ideas bout the job situation?"
"Nope, you?
"Notta"
"Kay, bye then"
"Bye"
*Click*
A/N I am so sorry drops to her knees and starts begging I really didn't mean to take so long, but I kept rewriting this chapter, Hojo and Kagome-in these many deleted chapters- ended up going to a baseball game, to the movies, the park, a museum, the bone eaters well, and an arcade, but I deleted all of those because, they had to much fun, and if I were Kagome there would be no reason for me not to go on another date with Hojo, but the museum one was really funny.
