Chapter 4: Club Hopping
LAST TIME:
Kagome repeatedly snapped her fingers in front of the guys' faces, but they refused to wake up from their creepy trance. "Bro!" Shizuru bellowed, slapping Kuwabara across the face. The idiot fell to the floor with swirling eyes, mumbling something about 'dancing kitties.' The rest of the boys soon snapped out their stupor as well, much to the girls' relief. Hiei hn'd, Kurama cleared his throat softly, Yusuke whistled flirtatiously, and Koenma laughed nervously. Each of them had a pinkish tint staining their faces due to the lovely creatures standing in front of them. ((AN-I changed it a bit…))
Kagome rolled her eyes and grabbed Hiei's hand in one of hers and Kurama's hand in the other, dragging the two blushing demons out of the mall, the rest of the gang in tow. "Let's go, you guys! We've got to go club hopping!" she exclaimed cheerfully, the other four girls exchanging knowing, evil grins. They would have so much, fun…
THIS TIME:
Kagome led the group to a petite, silver mini van and wedged her keys into it. "Ok," she announced, spinning around to face her friends. "Only four people can come with me, the other five will have to go with Keiko in her car!" Keiko waved from her position in front of a small, purple mini van. Yusuke immediately walked over to Keiko with his hands casually in his pockets, a smug look on his face.
The rest of the gang was slightly more difficult. Koenma wanted to sit with Botan, but didn't want to sit near Yusuke, knowing that the punk would make fun of him. Botan wanted to sit with Keiko, who was sitting with Yusuke, but also wanted to sit with Koenma.
Hiei wanted to sit with Kagome, who wanted to sit with Yukina, who wanted to sit with Kuwabara, who wanted to sit with Yusuke. Shizuru refused to sit with Kuwabara, but needed to talk to Botan about something. Kurama wanted to sit with Kagome, but didn't want to get in the way. In conclusion, a battle ensued.
Kagome cheerfully called Yukina over, who tried to drag Kuwabara with her. Kuwabara was in the middle of an argument with Yusuke and accidentally fell on top of Hiei, who in then turn punched the buffoon, knocking him out. Yukina yelled at Hiei while Kagome and Yusuke cheered for the small fire/ice apparition. Shizuru stepped on top of Kuwabara while walking over to Botan, who was fighting with Koenma, trying to get him into the car. Kurama just stood there sweat dropping.
Finally, it was settled. Keiko, Yusuke, Koenma, Botan, and Shizuru were in Keiko's car and Kagome, Hiei, Kurama, Yukina, and a knocked out Kuwabara were in Kagome's car. They drove peacefully (not) to the club and pulled up in front of it.
Kagome and the girls practically leapt out of the cars in excitement while the boys just looked around uncomfortably. Well, that is, except for Yusuke who was too busy thinking of ways to pull Keiko's skirt up without his object of affections noticing. They slowly walked inside of the building, looking around in awe.
The club itself was huge with sparkling silver walls, a golden carpet, and strobe lights shining everywhere. A huge, multicolored disco ball was in the center, hanging from the ceiling and spinning around, causing the entire club to continuously change colors. In one section on the large building was a dance floor where the latest music was blaring loudly, and in another section was a bar with seats everywhere. There were also a couple of white couches scattered around that looked comfortable. People were drinking, talking, and dancing everywhere. It was packed!!!!
"Wow…" Kagome murmured, taking in all of the sights and sounds. "This place is so cool!!!" The rest of the gang nodded in agreement and smiled, ready to have some fun. Keiko grabbed Yusuke's hand and giggled, leading him out onto the dance floor. Koenma blushed slightly and took Botan's hand, causing her face to heat up as well. They walked out onto the dance floor together and danced beside Keiko and Yusuke.
Yukina and a now conscious Kuwabara were chatting together and sipping some sodas at the other side of the club while laughing about something funny (or should I say stupid…) the buffoon had said.
Kagome sighed happily and plopped down on a random couch, grinning at the two couples at the dance floor. She giggled as Keiko 'accidentally' stepped on Yusuke's foot with her high heels and he began to hop around everywhere in pain. Kurama and Shizuru sat on either side of her on the couch and Hiei just leaned against a random wall, still pouting slightly from the boys' 'shopping spree' and his new outfit.
FLASHBACK IN HIEI'S POV:
We watched as the women left to go shopping and I gazed over at the guys, rolling my eyes as they looked completely lost. Apparently, Kagome had told them to get knew outfits while they shopped…poor saps. I smirked as they sweat dropped and shrugged, exchanging confused glances with one another. Kurama smiled and decided to 'save us all.'
"Well, I suppose we should find something to wear…" he confirmed, stating the obvious. The other idiots nodded slowly as they walked up to me. "Let's go Hiei," the fox continued, leading us to a men's clothing store. We walked inside and the four of them looked around, desperately searching for something to wear. I just watched them, refusing to allow myself to sink to their lowly level. Shopping wasn't for demons…EVER!!!!
They also picked something out for me, which I rejected immediately. Finally, they forced me to change my clothes by telling me they would reveal my secret about being Yukina's sister to everyone, stupid backstabbers…
I changed into the outfit to see if it would fit and was appalled. I was wearing tight, black leather pants with silver chains on the side that made me feel naked and a tight 'muscle tank,' as Yusuke had called it. I also wore some black sneakers and a black leather jacked over my shirt that wasn't zippered up. I refused to come out, and finally Yusuke dragged me out of the changing stall. "You look good," he declared after close inspection of my work. Yeah, right…stupid humans…
STILL FLASHBACK, AUTHOR'S POV:
Yusuke: Yusuke wore a tight pair of jeans with a silver chain hanging from the side and a dark green muscle tank that showed off his muscles quite well. He also wore a jean jacket over his shirt, open, of course, and some white sneakers. His hair was gelled back and he looked like a hott punk.
Koenma: Koenma wore a tight pair of khaki jeans and a navy blue muscle tank with an open black jacket over it. He also wore white sneakers and left his hair cutely messy. For once, he took out the binky, showing his shining white teeth. He looked great!
Kurama: Kurama wore a tight pair of black jeans and a blood red muscle tank that brought out his hair perfectly. He wore some black sneakers and left his silky, red hair down. He looked wicked hott!!!!
Kuwabara: Kuwabara wore a pair of tight, white jeans and a white muscle tank. He wore white sneakers and left his hair in his usual Elvis style. Well, he didn't look as ugly as usual…
END OF FLASHBACK:
Hiei refused to admit it, but he inwardly smirked in satisfaction as Kagome blushed at him slightly. If he weren't a demon, he probably wouldn't have noticed, but being a demon sure had its ups.
Kurama was talking with Kagome, feeling slightly jealous as she continued to side-glance at Hiei once in a while. 'Why do I care???' he thought, obviously enjoying his denial. *You like her that's why.* a mocking voice said within my head. 'I do not…' I replied stubbornly, aware that I sounded like a whiny child. I could feel my counterpart roll his eyes. *You know you do,* he replied casually, *It's obvious. Who wouldn't fall for her, though? She's smart, beautiful, and extremely powerful.* Kurama strained not to agree, but to no avail. 'He's right…' he admitted dejectedly, 'I do have feelings for her.'
Kurama was jolted out of his thoughts by a gentle tap on his shoulder. He blinked a few times to see Kagome's worried face directly in front of his and almost jumped. "Kurama??? Are you alright?!" she asked, feeling his forehead. "I was talking to you while you seemed to zone out. Are you feeling ok???"
Kurama nodded slowly, shaking his head slightly to rid himself of the slight blush that threatened to grace his cheeks with its presence. "I'm fine…" he replied, sending her a warm smile. She returned the smile with her own, still feeling slightly doubtful about the fox's obvious lie.
Unknown to Kurama, Hiei had heard all of his thoughts loud and clear. What he heard Youko say caused him an enraged feeling. 'How dare he?!' he thought, gritting his teeth in jealousy. He shook his head, straining to rid himself of such thoughts. 'I don't care if Kurama likes Kagome…' he thought stubbornly, 'It's not like a have any feelings for her…'
Kagome watched as Hiei seemed to zone out as well and shook her head, rolling her eyes slightly. 'Oh, well…' she thought, standing up and walking over to the bar to get a drink. Shizuru came with her a few seconds later, not feeling like watching Hiei and Kurama continue zoning out in their thoughts.
The guy behind the bar was probably about their age and seemed to be eyeing Kagome with lust. ((An- Stupid teenage hormones…lol ^.^*)) Kagome didn't even notice in her thoughts of what to buy to drink, but Shizuru noticed right away and sent the young man a disgusted glare, which he didn't seem to notice. The man was quite handsome with short, messy light brown hair and deep, cerulean blue eyes. He smirked at Kagome, just sighed and tried not to roll her eyes at his pitiful excuse for a sexy smile.
"I'll have a lemonade, please…" she murmured, taking out her money. The young man gave her a pink lemonade with a yellow umbrella coming out of the side. "It's on the house," he replied, "For a lovely girl such as yourself. What's your name?" Kagome just took her lemonade, and glared at the young man, giving him the middle finger as she walked away.
Shizuru burst into a fit of chuckles as she walked away from the surprised young man after Kagome. Kurama and Hiei smirked from their current positions, having watched the entire thing. Kagome plopped down on the ouch again, sipping her lemonade as if nothing had happened. "So you guys, anyone up for some humiliation???" she asked, shooting her friends a mischievous grin. They nodded, waiting to hear about her evil idea.
"Well," she started, "I have an idea that will be perfect to embarrass Yusuke, Keiko, Koenma, and Botan. They won't even know what hit them!" Kurama couldn't help but chuckle, Hiei smirked, and Shizuru grinned evilly. "Well, what is it???" the eager woman asked, always loving to embarrass others. She couldn't help it, it was a great hobby. ((An- I agree, lol!!!!))
"Well, I heard that they are going to have karaoke in a little bit…" she murmured with a slight smile. "I was thinking that we sign Keiko and Yusuke up as a duet as well as Koenma without their knowing. They'll have to sing because by the time they find out about our trick, they'll be on stage!"
"Ooh…you're good!" Shizuru exclaimed with a nod and grin from Kurama and a smirk from Hiei. Kagome went up to the sign up sheet for the karaoke and signed Keiko, Yusuke, Koenma, and Botan up for it. When she returned, she was laughing evilly with a mischievous twinkle in her eyes.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
A BIT LATER:
The announcer walked up to the dance floor, which was now empty. All of the members at the club were sitting down, including the group we know and love so much. "We will now be having karaoke!" he announced cheerfully, causing the audience to begin clapping. "First, we have a duet being sung by Keiko and Yuz-Yusuke!" The crowd cheered and Kagome burst into a fit of hysterical giggles. "W-what?!" Keiko exclaimed, looking around in shock as she was pushed onto the stage along with a baffled Yusuke. Speaking of Yusuke, he was blushing bright red and glaring at Kagome and the gang. They were handed microphones and the music began playing. It was the song, Crawling, from Linkin Park. In the end, they did pretty well, except for when Keiko pushed Yusuke off of the stage for groping her randomly in the middle of the song.
"Great job!" the announcer exclaimed, clapping for the blushing couple. "Next, we have Koenma and Botan!!!!" The audience cheered as Koenma and Botan's faces heated up. Kagome, once again, fell to the floor as she practically suffocated laughing.
They were pushed onto the stage and forced to sing Hella Good, by No Doubt. They were amazing, especially Botan, who had a solo. Kagome and the gang stood up and clapped when they finished, giving them a thumbs-up. The announcer came back onto the stage and smiled brightly. "Well, the next singer was secretly picked and her friends decided to choose a special song for her. Give it up for, Kagome!" Kagome gawked at her friends as they smirked evilly at her.
They pushed her onto the stage as she blushed and looked down in embarrassment. My Immortal, from Evanescence began playing and she started to sing, softly at first. As the song went on, she began to sing louder, her angelic voice warming the audience to their toes. Everyone was silent and stared at Kagome as she sang, their eyes widening at the sweet sound of her voice and how much heart she put into her singing.
When she finished, the entire club stood up and clapped for her, cheering and asking for an encore. Kagome blushed a pretty pink and walked over to her friends, who immediately pounced on her with questions and exclamations like: "Where did you learn to sing like that?!" and "Oh my god, Kagome!!! That was amazing!!!!"
Finally, a soft, slow song came on. Keiko dragged Yusuke over to the dance floor, Koenma and Botan danced, Yukina and Kuwabara danced, and, surprisingly, Kurama and Shizuru danced with one another. Kagome leaned against the couch she was sitting in and watched her friends with a faint smile, side-glancing at Hiei every once and a while. The small fire/ice apparition scratched the back of the head as he tried to think of what to say. *Just ask her to dance…* a voice called within his head. Hiei sat upright and his usual stoic mask of indifference was replaced by confusion. 'Who are you???' he asked, feeling slightly stupid about talking to himself.
*I'm you,* it replied, *Only I just don't like to talk much.*
'Hn…' Hiei replied, sitting back again.
*Don't 'hn' me, mister!!!!* it replied sternly, forcing Hiei to sweat drop. *Just ask her to dance with you. You know you want to!* Hiei shook his head and stood up, walking over to Kagome. 'Fine, I will if you stop annoying me…' he replied venomously.
Kagome was lost in her own thoughts of how to ask Hiei to dance with her. 'He'll probably just say no…or hn, or something…' she thought dejectedly. Just as she was about to give up, Hiei walked up to her, seemingly timidly. "Uh, Kagome?" he asked, a slight blush gracing his strong features.
"Yes?" she replied, surprised that Hiei was actually talking to her. Hiei fidgeted under her innocent stare, trying to thing of what to say. "Would you, um, like to dance with me???" he asked shyly, straining not to run and hide beneath a rock. Kagome's features brightened up and she seemed to glow with happiness. She jumped up and walked over to Hiei, grabbing his hand and dragging him to the dance floor.
"I was waiting for you to ask!" she exclaimed as he slid his arms timidly around her petite waist. He couldn't help but smirk slightly at her obvious blissfulness about him merely asking her to dance. His pride swelled as she slid her pale arms around his neck and leaned her head on his shoulder. He closed his eyes and they swayed back and forth, moving to the soft beat of the music. And for once, the apparition was content.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
LEAVNIG THE CLUB:
The gang decided to finish their fun night by going over to Kagome's house and have a sleepover. During the ride home, Hiei went through his thoughts on the past…hour. He had been dancing with Kagome when another slow song came on. For the rest of the night, they danced together in silence, enjoying each other's company. Hiei couldn't help but allow the smile that graced his lips to come forth. He stared out the window, listening to Kagome's soft voice as she conversed with Yukina about some 'TV show' called Rurouni Kenshin.
When they arrived home, they all changed into their pajamas. Kagome wore a pair of baggy black pajama pants and a comfortable, white, tank top. The other four girls wore the same except for Yukina wore light blue pants, Keiko wore light purple pants, Shizuru wore light green pants, and Botan wore light pink pants. Each of the girls wore their hair in a high ponytail.
"Let's play spin the bottle!" Botan suggested, catching everyone's attention. Kagome got a bottle from the kitchen and came back, smiling cheerfully. "Ok, but let's have a twist to it!" she stated, a mischievous glint in her eyes. "We'll play truth or dare spin the bottle!!!!" The rest of the gang looked confused, so Kagome elaborated.
"Well, someone spins the bottle. Let's say Yukina spun it and it landed on Kuwabara. They would have to kiss, but Yukina would also get to pick a dare for Kuwabara to do! Get it?" They nodded, excited with this new idea for a game. "Also," she continued, "If you land on someone the same sex as you, you only have to kiss each other on the cheek once each."
They all sat in a circle and decided for Keiko to go first since her birthday had just passed and was closer than anyone else's. She spun the bottle and it landed on…Kagome!!!! Kagome and Keiko just giggled and pecked each other on the cheek. "Kagome, for your dare, I want you to…change into a dog demon, which I've always wanted to see, and sit on Hiei's lap for the rest of the night!!!!" Kagome blushed, as well as Hiei, and nodded, beginning to transform.
She closed her eyes and a silver and golden glow surrounded her. When the blinding light diseased, Kagome stood as a beautiful inu youkai. Her hair grew to her ankles and became perfectly straight and a light silver color with a baby blue tint to it. It flowed down her back like a waterfall of silver silk. Her eyes changed into a molten golden color and became slightly tinted, looking like Sesshomaru's. Light purple stripes kissed her cheeks and an upside-down, blue half moon graced her forehead. Her skin glowed with radiance and her clothes changed as well.
She wore an intricate silk kimono that was a soft yellow color with baby blue and pink lilies scattered about everywhere. On the collar line, there was the design of multicolored butterflies in a row. Her ears became pointed, yet elegant, and a pure white, fluffy tail protruding from her buttocks. She looked absolutely beautiful, especially in Hiei's eyes.
She grinned cutely and regally walked over to Hiei, gracefully sitting down on the baffled demon's lap. She smiled up at him, causing his cheeks to warm up and the blood to flow to his face. She giggled and leaned against him, waiting for Keiko to pick someone to spin the bottle next.
The game went on four a few hours until everyone fell asleep in the living room. Yukina and Kuwabara were cuddled up on the couch where the buffoon was drooling and snoring loudly. Koenma and Botan shared the love seat, their arms wrapped around one another affectionately. Kurama and Shizuru were leaning against a wall and Shizuru's head was leaning against Kurama's strong shoulder as she slept.
Yusuke and Keiko were leaning against the couch and Yusuke's arm was wrapped around Keiko's shoulders protectively. Hiei and Kagome were leaning against the other wall with Kagome sleeping on Hiei's lap and his arms wrapped around her, the demon sleeping as well.
Kagome's mother came downstairs to get a glass of water when she saw her daughter with her friends sleeping in the living room. She smiled fondly at her daughter's serene face as the small demon held her in his strong arms. With a playful grin, she whipped a camera out of no where and took a million pictures of all of them. *CLICK*
