Chapter 14
By the time Sango and Kagome got back to Sango's house they only had three hours to get ready.
"Kagome, you can have the shower first, I'll make some coffee then I'll take mine after your done, okay?" Sango said as she laid their shopping bags in the middle of her large living room floor.
"Okay, where is your bathroom?" Kagome asked as she looked around the spacious living room.
"Down the hall and to the right." Sango said and pointed in that direction. Then she walked towards the kitchen to start the coffee.
Kagome followed Sango's directions and she came to a door. She turned the knob and she saw the most beautiful bathroom she had ever seen before!
It had royal blue plush careting and matching wall paper with royal blue rose boardering, it had a huge mirror over a black marble topped sink, the toilett even had matching covering over the seat.
Kagome walked over to the shower and pulled back the curtain.
The shower had one of those massaging shower heads. 'This is gonna be one of the best showers I have had yet!' Kagome thought as she eyed the massaging shower head in aticapation.
Kagome turned the hot water on then let it run untill it was at the right temperature. She pulled the little tab and the water went from the faucet to the shower head.
She stripped off her clothing and then stept into the shower. She adjusted the water settings to the shower head, then sighed in contentment as the steaming water hit her taught muscles, instantly relaxing them.
Kagome looked at Sango's shampoo and conditioner. 'She must really like this stuff.' She thought as she looked at the asorted scents of the shamoo's and condictioner's.
There was strawberries, vanilla, cocoanut, and a lot of others.
Kagome chose the strawberrie scented one. She quickly washed her hair and her body then turned the shower off and wrapped a towel around her body and her dripping wet hair.
She toweled her hair dry as much as possible then walked out of the bathroom and towards the kitchen.
"Showers free." Kagome said as she entered the kitchen.
Sango was talking on the phone when Kagome entered. "Yes, I'm sure we won't need you to give us a ride, Miroku." She was saying into the phone. She was silent for a moment then her eyes widened slightly and her eye began to twitch. "You hentai!" She yelled into the reciever and slammed the phone down.
Kagome looked at her friend quizically. "What did Miroku say?" She questioned.
Sango just shook her head. "You don't wanna know." She replied. She handed Kagome a coffee cup. "Help yourself to some brownies." She said and pointed to a tray that was full of warm, gooey brownies.
Sango walked out of the kitchen and a few minutes later Kagome heard the sound of running water.
Kagome got herself a cup of coffee then sat down at the table and grabbed one the the brownies. She munched on her snake and let her mind wander.
'I wonder if Inuyasha will like my dress.' She thought. Then she let herself wander to how handsome Inuyasha would probally look to night. When she realized what she was thinking of, she shook her head as if to shake the thought out of her mind. 'Where did THAT thought come from?' She wondered as she finished her brownie.
Sango came back into the kitchen and looked at Kagome. "Are you ready to get dressed up?" She asked with a grin at her new close friend.
Kagome returned the smile and stood up on the table. "You better believe it!" Kagome said as she followed Sango into the living room to retrieve their shopping bags.
They carried their bags into Sango room.
"Lets do our hair first." Sango said and laid her bag on the bed. Kagome did the same and followed her back into the bathroom.
Sango had already plugged in her curling iron. "You first." She said and pushed Kagome down to sit on a little fold out chair.
Sango spun the chair around so Kagome couldn't look into the mirror. She pulled out a brush and began to brush Kagome's long, silky, raven hair.
Once she had all the tangles out she pulled Kagome's hair up into a tight bun at the top of her head, but she some strands to hang around her face. She then got out the now hot curling iron and curled the strands around Kagome's face so that they framed it.
Sango then grabbed a small can of hair spray and sprayed just a little on Kagome's curls.
"All done." Sango said as she stood back to admire her work.
Kagome turned in her chair and looked at her hair and her jaw dropped open. She couldn't BELIEVE how elegant her hair looked! She brought her hand up and gingerly touched her bun. "Sango, I love it!" Kagome exclaimed as she through her arms around Sango. "Now its your turn." She said and push Sango into the chair.
Sango sat down with out protest.
Kagome reached over to the bathroom counter and retrieved a large curling iron. It took a bit longer to do Sango's hair, but in the end her a had luxurious curls cascading down her back.
Kagome grabbed the can of hair spray and sprayed it on to Sango's hair. "Finished." She said and let Sango look at her hair.
Sango's mouth also dropped open when she saw all the curls she had. "Wow, Kagome, you really know your way when it comes to styling hair." Sango complemented the girl.
Kagome blushed at the praise. "Lets go put on out dresses now." She said.
So, the two girls made their way into Sango's bed room to get dressed.
Sango pulled out her dress, jewlery, shoes, and other assories. She then pulled off her towel and slipped into her dress. She sat down on her bed to put on her red, spiked heeled shoes.
Kagome did the same. She pulled on her black strapless dress then her clear, spiked heeled shoes. "What do we do next? Put on our jewlery or our make-up?" Kagome questioned once they were both dress.
"Our make-up, then our jewlery." Sagno replied.
The two girls made their way over Sango's large dresser mirror to put on their make-up.
Sango put on a deep red lip stick that matched her dress, then she put on sparkle eye shadow, mascara, black eye liner and she was done with her make- up.
Kagome applied a light shade of pink lip stick, glitter eye shadow, mascara, black eye liner and she too, was also done with her make-up.
"Now for our jewlery." Sango said picked up her jewlery.
Kagome did the same and soon, both girls were ready for the party that night.
"We look fabulose." Sango said as she and Kagome looked at their reflections in the full length mirror that Sango had hung on her door.
Kagome nodded her head in agreement. "Yes we do." She said.
They heard a car horn honk outside and a smile came to Sango's face. "That'll be our ride." She said as she picked up her purse.
"Our ride? But I didn't think Miroku was gonna give us a ride." Kagome said as she gathered up her purse as well.
Sango's smiled widened. "He's not." She replied and began to walk towards the front door.
"Then who's out there?" Kagome asked as she followed Sango.
Sango opened her front door and parked right in the front of her house was a black stretch limousine. "If we're going to this party tonight, we're going in style." Sango said as she looked at her friends surprised face.
Sango smiled and grabbed her friends gloved arm and pulled her towards the limousine.
A man got out of the limo and walked around to the back of the car. He opened the door with a smile and took off his hat and bowed slightly as Kagome and Sango got into the back.
Sango opened up a small fridge and pulled out a bottle of wine. She then got two wine glasses and poured each of them a little bit of the wine.
"Heres to a wonderful night." Sango said as she clinked glasses with Kagome.
**
Inuyasha pulled at the collar of his shirt. He hated to get dressed up. He was wearing a pair of black dress pants and a dark maroon button down shirt while the other doctors were wearing tuxes or suits.
"Hey, Inuyasha!" A voice called from behind Inuyasha.
Inuyasha turned around to see Miroku walking towards him. He, too, was wearing black dress pants and a dark purple button down shirt. Miroku hated getting dressed up almost as much as Inuyasha.
Miroku sidled up next to Inuyasha. "So, are the girls here, yet?" He asked and scanned the area.
"No, their not here yet." Inuyasha replied as he took a sip of his champaign.
Inuyasha had been waiting for almost thirty minutes for Kagome to arrive. 'Why am I so anoxous for her to get here?' He wondered to himself as he looked out the large window of the mansion.
Inuyasha saw a black stretch limousine pull up the long winding drive wat of the mansion. 'Must be one of the big shots from the hospital.' Inuyasha thought as he turned away from the window.
Inuyasha saw Miroku staring at some womans behind. "You know, if Sango caught you doing that she'd make it so you would never have any kids." He commented with a smirk on his face.
Miroku looked at his friend. "True, but Sango knows that she is the only person I really love." Miroku replied and went back to scanning the area.
Miroku's eyes landed on the front door and he did a double take at what he saw and his jaw dropped open.
Inuyasha glanced at Miroku when he suddenly fell quiet. He looked and saw that Miroku's jaw had fallen open. "Oi, Miroku, what're you staring at?" Inuyasha asked and glanced in the direction that his friend was staring at and his jaw, too, dropped open.
He could not believe what he was looking at. What he was looking at was the most beautiful creature he had ever laid eyes on. And this beautiful creature was Kagome.
She was wearing a black strapless dress that showed off her perfect figure.
Inuyasha couldn't take his amber eyes off of his beautiful Kagome. 'Wait a minute. MY Kagome? She isn't mine!' Inuyasha thought as he was finally snapped put if his daze.
Miroku had also snapped out of his daze and he rushed over to the girls and Inuyasha followed.
"Might I say that you two ladies look lovely tonight." Miroku said once he had reached the girls.
Sango blushed a slight shade of pink. "Thank you, Miroku." She said as she and Kagome handed their purses and coats over to an awaiting door man.
Miroku took Sango's hand and led her over to a table that was assigned for him, Sango, Inuyasha and Kagome.
Inuyasha and Kagome followed.
Inuyasha pulled the seat out for Kagome and once she was seated he pushed her close to the table.
"Thanks you, Inuyasha." Kagome said in a shy, timid voice. 'Why am I being shy around Inuyasha? I've been living with him for almost a month now and I haven't been shy around him before.' She thought to herself.
A waiter came over to their table and sat their entrée's in front of him. He pulled the lid off to reveal freshly cooked fish. He laid one fish on each persons plate.
"If you need anything else, please ring this bell." The waiter said and sat a little bell in the middle of the table, then he walk away to attend to another table.
The group ate in silence.
"Ah, that was some of the best cooked fish I have had in awhile." Miroku said as he sat down his fork next to his plate.
Sango glanced over at him. "That's what you said last time you ate MY cooked fish." She said and continued to stare at him.
Miroku laughed lightly and slung a arm around Sango's shoulders. "Anything you cook Sango is better than anything here." Miroku said with sincerty in his voice.
Soft music began playing in the background and Sango's face lit up. She stood from her chair and grabbed Miroku's hand and pulled him out of his chair.
"Come on, Miroku!" Sango said as she pulled him towards the dance floor.
Miroku smiled at Sango and followed her with out complaint.
Inuyasha and Kagome were left alone at the table.
The waiter came back and cleared away their plates.
Inuyasha glanced over at Kagome and saw her staring wistfully at the dance floor. 'Maybe I should ask her to dance.' He thoguht to himself as he watched Kagome staring at the dance floor. 'Ah, it wouldn't hurt to just ask.' He thought as he stood up from his chair and walked over to Kagome.
Inuyasha laid a gentle hand on Kagome's shoulder and she looked up at him with those soulful brown eyes of hers and his stomach did a flip flop. 'How does she do this to me?' He wondered.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked as she stared at him. 'Why is my heart punding?' She wondered as she stared into his beautiful amber eyes.
Inuyasha cleared his throat and held out a hand towards her. "Kagome, would you like to dance?" He asked as he stared at the beautiful. Once Inuyasha saw the smile break out on Kagome's face he knew that he had made the right decision in asking her to dance.
Kagome smiled. "I'd love to." She said as she accepted Inuyasha's out stretched hand and stood. up.
Inuyasha smiled a little also and led her to the middle of the dance floor. He placed both of his hands on Kagome's hip and she place both of her gloved arms around his neck and she laid her head on his shoulder as they slowly began to dance to the song that was playing.
~There's somethin' 'bout the way You look tonight, There's somethin' 'bout the that I can't take my eyes off you~
Kagome pulled back slightly from Inuyasha to look in his eyes.
'She is so beautiful.' Inuyasha thought as he stared back at Kagome.
~There's somethin' 'bout that way your lips invite, Maybe it's the way that I get nervous when you're around~
'When I'm with Kagome I just feel so comfortable with her, like its been this way all the time.' He thought as he and Kagome slowly swayed back and forth to the music.
~And I want you to be mine, And if you need a reason why~
Inuyasha found himself staring at Kagome's full pink lips, wondering how they would feel against his.
~It's in the way that you move me, And the way that you tease me, The way that I want you to night~
'Why do I feel this way? Could it be that I truly love Inuyasha?' Kagome thought as she tightened her grip around Inuyasha's neck.
~It's in the way that you hold me, And the way that you know me, And when I can't find the right words to say, You feel it in the way, Oh, you feel it in the way~
Inuyasha could see some sort of emotion in Kagome's beautiful brown orbs, but he didn't know what it was.
He felt Kagome's gentle touch tugging at his heart. He felt like he had to say something to her. "Kagome, I-"
He was silenced by Kagome's gently hand on his lips. "Just let me enjoy this moment." She said in a whispery voice and laid her head back on Inuyasha's shoulder.
~There's somethin' 'bout how you stay on my mind~
Inuyasha glanced at Kagome and saw that she had her eyes closed, her thick eyelashes gently resting against her pale face.
'Why is it that I can't get you off of my mind, Kagome?' He thought as he pulled the girl in his arms closer to him.
~There's somethin' 'bout the way that I whisper your name when I'm asleep, oh, girl, Maybe it's the look you get in your eyes~
'I just feel so happy when I'm around you.' Inuyasha thought, still staring down at the girl in his arms.
~Oh, baby, it's the way that it makes me feel to see you smile~
'I'd do anything just to see you smile, Kagome. When you do, it lights up my world.'
~And the reasons they may change, But what I'm feelin' stays the same~
'I don't know what it is I feel towards you, Kagome. But I know that it will never change.'
~It's in the way that you move me, And the way that you tease me, The way that I want you tonight (tonight)~
'Inuyasha, I feel safe when I'm with you. When I'm with you I don't have to worry about who I am or the person I was. I can just be myself around you.'
~It's in the way that you hold me, And the way that you know me~
'No one else knows me like you do, Inuyasha.'
~And when I can't find the right words to say, You feel it in the way, Oh, you feel it in the way~
'Can you feel what I'm feeling right now, Inuyasa? Are you feeling the same things that I am?'
~I can't put my fingers on just what it is that makes me Love you, you, baby~
Both Inuyasha and Kagome tightened their grip on the other, never wanting to let go.
~So don't ask me to decribe, I get all chocked up inside Just thinkin' 'bout the way~
'Kagome, I can't even decribe the way I feel about you. I can only hope that you feel the same way.'
~It's in the way that (Oh) You move me, And the way that you tease me, The way that I want you tonight (tonight)~
'Kagome, you have moved me in a way that no one has ever done before, you've made me feel things I've never felt before.'
~Oh (its in the way that) that you hold me (the way you hold me, yeah) And the way that You know me (the way that you know me)~
'When you hold me, Inuyasha, I don't have to worry about anything.'
~When I can't find right words to say (Feel it in the)~
'I'll always be here to protect you, Kagome, no matter what.'
~It's in the way that you move me, And the way that you tease me (feelin') The way-ay-ay-ay-ay (feel it in the way~
'Inuyasha, I think I'm falling in love with you.'
~There's somethin' 'bout the way you look tonight, There's nothin' more to say than, I feel it in the way~
The song ended and Inuyasha pulled back from Kagome so that he could look into her eyes. They were sparkling with a happiness and an emotion that Inuyasha didn't quiet understand yet.
"C'mon, lets go for a walk." He said and took Kagome's small hands in his larger ones.
Inuyasha led Kagome out on the veranda. They were the only people out there. Inuyasha was still holding Kagome's hand and he didn't release it.
They stood out there, each just enjoying the others company.
'Should I tell her about the way that I feel? I don't even understand what I'm feeling yet.' He thought as he stole a glance at Kagome.
Inuyasha was once again amazed at the beauty of the woman before him. The light from the moon shone down on her, only making her appearance seem more beautiful.
Kagome could feel that Inuyasha was staring at her and she turned her head and their eyes locked.
A stary lock of hair had escaped from Kagome's bun and fell in her face and Inuyasha reached out a hand to brush it behind her ear. He held his hand on Kagome's cheek and caressed it.
Kagome brought her hand up and covered Inuyasha's with it and she leaned in to his touch.
Kagome slowly opened her eyes to stare into Inuyasha's amber depths. She felt herself being pulled toward them and she couldn't stop herself.

Inuyasha and Kagome followed.
Inuyasha pulled the seat out for Kagome and once she was seated he pushed her close to the table.
"Thanks you, Inuyasha." Kagome said in a shy, timid voice. 'Why am I being shy around Inuyasha? I've been living with him for almost a month now and I haven't been shy around him before.' She thought to herself.
A waiter came over to their table and sat their entrée's in front of him. He pulled the lid off to reveal freshly cooked fish. He laid one fish on each persons plate.
"If you need anything else, please ring this bell." The waiter said and sat a little bell in the middle of the table, then he walk away to attend to another table.
The group ate in silence.
"Ah, that was some of the best cooked fish I have had in awhile." Miroku said as he sat down his fork next to his plate.
Sango glanced over at him. "That's what you said last time you ate MY cooked fish." She said and continued to stare at him.
Miroku laughed lightly and slung a arm around Sango's shoulders. "Anything you cook Sango is better than anything here." Miroku said with sincerty in his voice.
Soft music began playing in the background and Sango's face lit up. She stood from her chair and grabbed Miroku's hand and pulled him out of his chair.
"Come on, Miroku!" Sango said as she pulled him towards the dance floor.
Miroku smiled at Sango and followed her with out complaint.
Inuyasha and Kagome were left alone at the table.
The waiter came back and cleared away their plates.
Inuyasha glanced over at Kagome and saw her staring wistfully at the dance floor. 'Maybe I should ask her to dance.' He thoguht to himself as he watched Kagome staring at the dance floor. 'Ah, it wouldn't hurt to just ask.' He thought as he stood up from his chair and walked over to Kagome.
Inuyasha laid a gentle hand on Kagome's shoulder and she looked up at him with those soulful brown eyes of hers and his stomach did a flip flop. 'How does she do this to me?' He wondered.
"Inuyasha?" Kagome asked as she stared at him. 'Why is my heart punding?' She wondered as she stared into his beautiful amber eyes.
Inuyasha cleared his throat and held out a hand towards her. "Kagome, would you like to dance?" He asked as he stared at the beautiful. Once Inuyasha saw the smile break out on Kagome's face he knew that he had made the right decision in asking her to dance.
Kagome smiled. "I'd love to." She said as she accepted Inuyasha's out stretched hand and stood. up.
Inuyasha smiled a little also and led her to the middle of the dance floor. He placed both of his hands on Kagome's hip and she place both of her gloved arms around his neck and she laid her head on his shoulder as they slowly began to dance to the song that was playing.
~There's somethin' 'bout the way You look tonight, There's somethin' 'bout the that I can't take my eyes off you~
Kagome pulled back slightly from Inuyasha to look in his eyes.
'She is so beautiful.' Inuyasha thought as he stared back at Kagome.
~There's somethin' 'bout that way your lips invite, Maybe it's the way that I get nervous when you're around~
'When I'm with Kagome I just feel so comfortable with her, like its been this way all the time.' He thought as he and Kagome slowly swayed back and forth to the music.
~And I want you to be mine, And if you need a reason why~
Inuyasha found himself staring at Kagome's full pink lips, wondering how they would feel against his.
~It's in the way that you move me, And the way that you tease me, The way that I want you to night~
'Why do I feel this way? Could it be that I truly love Inuyasha?' Kagome thought as she tightened her grip around Inuyasha's neck.
~It's in the way that you hold me, And the way that you know me, And when I can't find the right words to say, You feel it in the way, Oh, you feel it in the way~
Inuyasha could see some sort of emotion in Kagome's beautiful brown orbs, but he didn't know what it was.
He felt Kagome's gentle touch tugging at his heart. He felt like he had to say something to her. "Kagome, I-"
He was silenced by Kagome's gently hand on his lips. "Just let me enjoy this moment." She said in a whispery voice and laid her head back on Inuyasha's shoulder.
~There's somethin' 'bout how you stay on my mind~
Inuyasha glanced at Kagome and saw that she had her eyes closed, her thick eyelashes gently resting against her pale face.
'Why is it that I can't get you off of my mind, Kagome?' He thought as he pulled the girl in his arms closer to him.
~There's somethin' 'bout the way that I whisper your name when I'm asleep, oh, girl, Maybe it's the look you get in your eyes~
'I just feel so happy when I'm around you.' Inuyasha thought, still staring down at the girl in his arms.
~Oh, baby, it's the way that it makes me feel to see you smile~
'I'd do anything just to see you smile, Kagome. When you do, it lights up my world.'
~And the reasons they may change, But what I'm feelin' stays the same~
'I don't know what it is I feel towards you, Kagome. But I know that it will never change.'
~It's in the way that you move me, And the way that you tease me, The way that I want you tonight (tonight)~
'Inuyasha, I feel safe when I'm with you. When I'm with you I don't have to worry about who I am or the person I was. I can just be myself around you.'
~It's in the way that you hold me, And the way that you know me~
'No one else knows me like you do, Inuyasha.'
~And when I can't find the right words to say, You feel it in the way, Oh, you feel it in the way~
'Can you feel what I'm feeling right now, Inuyasa? Are you feeling the same things that I am?'
~I can't put my fingers on just what it is that makes me Love you, you, baby~
Both Inuyasha and Kagome tightened their grip on the other, never wanting to let go.
~So don't ask me to decribe, I get all chocked up inside Just thinkin' 'bout the way~
'Kagome, I can't even decribe the way I feel about you. I can only hope that you feel the same way.'
~It's in the way that (Oh) You move me, And the way that you tease me, The way that I want you tonight (tonight)~
'Kagome, you have moved me in a way that no one has ever done before, you've made me feel things I've never felt before.'
~Oh (its in the way that) that you hold me (the way you hold me, yeah) And the way that You know me (the way that you know me)~
'When you hold me, Inuyasha, I don't have to worry about anything.'
~When I can't find right words to say (Feel it in the)~
'I'll always be here to protect you, Kagome, no matter what.'
~It's in the way that you move me, And the way that you tease me (feelin') The way-ay-ay-ay-ay (feel it in the way~
'Inuyasha, I think I'm falling in love with you.'
~There's somethin' 'bout the way you look tonight, There's nothin' more to say than, I feel it in the way~
The song ended and Inuyasha pulled back from Kagome so that he could look into her eyes. They were sparkling with a happiness and an emotion that Inuyasha didn't quiet understand yet.
"C'mon, lets go for a walk." He said and took Kagome's small hands in his larger ones.
Inuyasha led Kagome out on the veranda. They were the only people out there. Inuyasha was still holding Kagome's hand and he didn't release it.
They stood out there, each just enjoying the others company.
'Should I tell her about the way that I feel? I don't even understand what I'm feeling yet.' He thought as he stole a glance at Kagome.
Inuyasha was once again amazed at the beauty of the woman before him. The light from the moon shone down on her, only making her appearance seem more beautiful.
Kagome could feel that Inuyasha was staring at her and she turned her head and their eyes locked.
A stary lock of hair had escaped from Kagome's bun and fell in her face and Inuyasha reached out a hand to brush it behind her ear. He held his hand on Kagome's cheek and caressed it.
Kagome brought her hand up and covered Inuyasha's with it and she leaned in to his touch.
Kagome slowly opened her eyes to stare into Inuyasha's amber depths. She felt herself being pulled toward them and she couldn't stop herself.
