A/N: Here you go with Ch 4. It wasn't one of my favorites to write, until
it got to the end. Then I had a little bit of fun with it. Especially cuz
the next chapter there isn't much room for fun, although there could be, I
guess. Oh well you just have to read to the end to see what I mean!
Disclaimer: Me: This time I brought Miroku. Will you tell them that I own you guys? Miroku: But you don't. That lady who created us- Me: Oh, never mind. Miroku: Well, in that case, *grabs hand* will you do me the honor or bearing my child? Me: *twitch* Let's make a deal. I'll *gulp* bear your child if you tell them I own you. Miroku: *heavy sigh* I'm sorry. I can't do that. *smacks his head repeatedly with staff* Me: Well, once again, I have to give in to the fact that I don't own Inuyasha. But I guess I can be happy that I own Maeko... *cries* Miroku: *hugs* There, there, it'll be ok... *grabs at butt* Me: ARRRRGGG! Damn you Miroku! You B/N: henti! The word is henti! pervert! Where's Sango's boomerang when I need it? *hits Miroku with frying pan many times in the skull until he's laying there unconscious*

The car slowed when it reached the front of the school. Kagome opened the door and hopped out, pulling Inuyasha out behind her.
Groups of teenagers, all in dresses and tuxes, walked into the school, chatting excitedly. Couples were walking arm-in-arm, smiling at each other.
Not wanting to be outdone, Inuyasha scooped his arm around Kagome's and led them towards the school.
Inside was crammed with people. Music was booming from the gymnasium, and along with all the laughing and talking, it made an interesting blend of sound, one that hurt Inuyasha's sensitive ears very badly.
Kagome took the lead and began to steer them towards a group of girls, all of whom had a date. They swarmed her, all talking at once. Inuyasha just stood back silently and watched.
"Who's this?"
"What happened to Hojo?"
"I haven't seen him before."
"Is he your date?"
"He's cute!"
Kagome put up her hands to quiet them. "His name is Inuyasha. He's a friend from... out of town. And he is my date."
"But what happened to Hojo?" one girl chipped in. "I thought he asked you. Did you turn him down?"
Inuyasha stiffened when he heard them mention Hojo. He had heard that name come up in conversations between Sango and Kagome too many times. He would have to make it a point to meet this guy.
Kagome quickly thought up an excuse for not coming with Hojo. "He... never gave me a call back, so I figured he changed his mind."
The other guys who had been standing by patiently waiting for their dates walked over to Inuyasha.
"So, she said 'yes' to you, huh?" One smirked, nudging him.
"What?" Inuyasha turned and stared at the boy blankly.
Another one cut in. "I asked her, but she turned me down."
"You're lucky, she's so cute."
They closed in, forming a tighter circle around him, laughing and hitting him in the shoulder. "She is, isn't she? Man, if I could only date her..."
"Just a dance would work for me." He leaned over to Inuyasha. "Hey, you mind if I ask her? Just one, I promise."
Inuyasha grabbed his collar and growled. "Not on your life, jackass."
The others pulled the guy of his grip and backed away nervously. "Hey, cool it. We're just saying how we'd like to be in your shoes right now."
"Yeah, well, keep dreaming!" He huffed and walked towards where Kagome was still chatting with her friends. He stood behind her, looking annoyed.
When she turned around, she was startled to see him hovering over her. "Let's go join the party," she said, smiling. He grunted, so she took him by the arm and steered them towards the door that was vibrating from the booming music.
Guys and girls were jumping up and down, waving their arms madly in the air as the speakers played a few of their favorite songs. The DJ hovered over them, his stand set up on the stage.
As soon as they walked in, Kagome could see the eyes of many people following them. Boys watched in awe, mostly because a few of them had asked her and been turned down, and girls watched with hopefulness, ready to ask this cute new guy for a dance at the first opportunity.
Kagome and Inuyasha stood there for a moment. She hadn't really thought ahead at what they would do once they got there.
After a few more moments of uncomfortable silence, she turned to Inuyasha. "Would you maybe like a drink?" she asked. She didn't want to just drag him out onto the dance floor. It would probably be too awkward for him, considering she didn't think he knew how to dance.
"Sure," Inuyasha replied. "I'll just... wait over here." He backed into a wall and leaned there.
Kagome walked off, leaving Inuyasha to watch the dancing teens. 'Feh, what do those kids think they're doing?' he thought to himself. 'They call that dancing?'
Suddenly, he felt a hand grab his arm and yank him off of the wall.
"Hey cutie, remember me?"
Surprised he looked down to find a pair of anxious eyes looking back at him. It was that annoying flirt, Maeko.
"Why are you just standing here?" She hugged his arm. "Come out and dance!"
Before he was able to protest, Maeko grabbed Inuyasha's arm and dragged him out onto the dance floor.

At the refreshment table, Kagome had finally gotten to the front of the drink line and grabbed to cups of punch. She didn't want to leave Inuyasha standing there for too long.
The minute she tuned around, though, she spotted that same girl from the restaurant dragging Inuyasha out onto the dance floor.
She absently shoved the two drinks into the hands of a boy who had been walking towards her, ready to ask for a dance, and hurried away. The poor boy just stood back, confused and rejected.

A/N: Ok Everyone! Here's a question for you about Chapter 5! Should I do a scene outside where Kagome can just yell her head off, or a scene in the girl's bathroom where Inuyasha just kinda goes in? I think if we wanted a more sappy/romantic touch, the outside scene would work (plus I'm good at sappy scenes) and if we wanted a funnier scene, we would go for Inu barging into the girl's bathroom (I'm alright with funny stuff). So, I would still really like to hear your say, it would help me a ton! Please review with your ideas! Thank you bunches! ^_^
