Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or any characters surrounding Inuyasha.
AN: Well I figured out a title for this chapter right after I posted the previous chapter. In the last chapter there was a part that said like ' Inuyasha does for Kagome' well that was supposed to look like a graph but it didn't so . I am sorry about that but whatever. I hope yall read this stuff at the beginning of the story because I try to inform you about stuff that is going to happen in the story. So like I said in the last chapter please R/R. I know what the ending is going to be and I am sure I will get some flames so I am getting my flame proof umbrella ready. But I don't plan to end this story very quickly there is still a lot of stuff I need to put in so it won't end for awhile. I am not going to have like 50 chapters though so don't worry. ^_^

Kagome was surprised how heavy her clothes were and that she wasn't able to levitate. She rang her clothes out as she made the pretty long walk back to the castle.
* * *
By the time Kagome got back to the castle she was almost dry. But her cleanliness was a whole different story. The sakura that was a light pink color you couldn't see any more. And the light blue background was now a dingy, rust, brown color. Mud was smeared up and down her legs and across her face. There was also a few dirt clumps matted in her hair. She stormed past Sango, up the stairs and to her room. She heard a few gasps as she passed maids in the halls. When she got to her room she called for Kioko(Kioko is Kagome's lady-in-waiting sorry forgot to mention that to yall ^_^) Kioko arrived in seconds and curtseyed with great ease and precision.
" Yes my lady." She questioned.
" Ready a bath for me will you Kioko?" Kagome asked. She noticed how quite Kioko was being and betted that she had seen her coming in or Sango had told her.
" Yes my lady." Kioko responded closing the door behind her.
Kagome laid on her bed awhile thinking about Inuyasha. He was so annoying and mean all the time. It wasn't like he was an idiot only part of the time, it was 24/7. How was he able to live with himself? She thought. Kagome sat up and pulled some paper and pencils out. She drew an ugly picture that resembled Inuyasha. She nailed it to the wall and began tossing darts at the picture.
" Bastard, fag, bitch." Kagome said every time she tossed a dart at the picture. Kagome continued these actions until Kioko knocked on her door to tell her that her bath was ready. Kagome gathered her rob and new change of clothes and entered her bathroom. She shedded her clothes and relaxed into the tub. She thoroughly washed her self and relaxed her muscles for about an hour. After her bath she changed into an evening yukata and started reading a book. She continued reading till Sango knocked on the door
" Come in Sango." Kagome called.
Sango entered carrying a beautiful silk dress. The bottom part was a burgundy red color with a gold, sparkly layer of see through material. The top had straps that came to the side of the arms and was white with hints of gold. There was a shawl that was burgundy with white ends and gold tassels.
" It's gorgeous Sango." Kagome exclaimed taking the dress from her.
" Your father wanted me to give this to you for the ball tonight. Sango said.
" Well.I guess.if I can use this dress I'll go." Kagome said concentrating more on the dress then her decision.
" You know, Kioko told me about your fight with Inuyasha," Sango said moving to sit on Kagome's bed " Even though you guys aren't the best friends you should him something and say you're sorry."
" Why? He was totally rude and immature not me." Kagome barked.
" Then shouldn't you be the mature one and say you are sorry?" Sango asked.
" He should say sorry first." Kagome almost yelled turning to look at Sango " whose side are you on Sango?"
" Kagome I am not on anyone's side! I am just trying to make things better for everyone." Sango reasoned.
" Fine if it makes you happy. But understand I am only doing this for you." Kagome barked.
" Okay but give me the present and I will give it to him for you." Sango said cheerfully.
" All right." Kagome sounded annoyed and nauseated.
* * *
" Come on Inuyasha. You were totally barking at her." Sango said.
" I shouldn't have to apologize to a fucking bitch like her." Inuyasha barked.
" I am not saying you have to but you should do it for the rest of us." Sango yelled.
" I don't give a damn about you guys either." Inuyasha barked even louder.
" Do it for your parents." Sango suggested. But before he had a chance to protest " do it for Kikyou." Sango said even though she had no idea what Kikyou had to do with the situation as she watched the stunned Inuyasha.
" How do you know about Kikyou?" Inuyasha questioned.
" First of all, who doesn't. Second of all I was already living here and I knew that you loved her. And I was there that night." Sango said solemnly gazing down at the ground.
It remained quiet as Inuyasha contemplated and remembered how he was crossing through the training grounds when he had smelt her blood. He had followed the scent to the gardens and found her sprawled on the grass. Her head had been swamped in a large pool of blood from her neck. He had ran to her side and called her name but she never opened her eyes again. Inuyasha called her whilst staying beside her.
Inuyasha mentally shook himself awake. " All right I'll do it but only for Kikyou NOT Kagome all right?"
" Yeah, but give me the present first and I'll give it to her." Sango called running back to her room.
"All right I have finished the necklace and blanket." Kioko smiled holding them both up " what did they make for each other?"
" Well. Inuyasha strung quartz rocks on a string to make a necklace and Kagome made a really sloppy handkerchief." Sango looked a little disgusted as she held them up for Kioko to look at.
"Um. my necklace looks a lot different then those and is a lot better made."
" I know that, so we will make sure that neither of them show it to the for awhile at least."
" Well they are wrapped and ready to go, so do you want to handle Inuyasha and I will get Kagome, Okay?"
" Sure." Sango grabbed the present and headed off towards Inuyasha's room while Kioko headed to Kagome's new room (located as far away from Inuyasha as possible).
Sango knocked on Inuyasha's door and him say come in. She walked in with the gift and found him looking at himself in the mirror brushing his hair. " Inuyasha, here is Kagome's present." Sango said holding the package towards him.
Inuyasha turned and starred at the gift. It had an inner layer of gold silk that you couldn't see through and gold material but was surrounded by a thin see through gold material. And a gold ribbon tied into a neat bow kept the present in side. Inuyasha took the present from Sango's arms and fingered it for a few moments. He then carefully pulled the bow undone careful not to rip the present or material. Inuyasha carefully picked the blanket up out of the wrapping and unfolded it.
There was a big red heart surrounded by a black background with golden stars amidst the black. He smoothed his hand over it in amazement. The fringes along or the tassels along the outside were mostly black but there were a few red. The blanket felt like the finest silk he had ever held. But Inuyasha holding his amazement in tossed the blanket onto the bed behind him. "Feh, It's nice." Inuyasha said fixing his hair so it wouldn't fluff.
"Do you want me to say anything to her for you?" Sango asked " like thank you?"
"Why? She didn't have to make it. It doesn't matter." Inuyasha said nonchalantly.
" God, you don't have any appreciation for anything people do for you!" Sango yelled slamming the door before he could answer.
Inuyasha walked across the room and whipped the door open and called after her "I do appreciate stuff but not from that bitch!"
" Yeah right."
* * *
Kioko reached Kagome's room and knocked lightly " Kagome, I have something for you." Kioko said sweetly.
"Oh, come in, what is it?" Kagome asked rapidly.
"I don't know." Kioko lied.
Kagome was too excited to see Kioko's eyes dart around nervously. Kioko handed Kagome the gift, who quickly opened the tiny box. Inside was a gold necklace that had a sapphire pendent surrounded by diamonds in the shape of a heart. Kagome gawked at the necklace as she held it up to the light. "He made this for me?" she asked Kioko.
"Yep." Kioko said her smile spread from ear to ear.
"He didn't have to. This is so nice."
" He wanted to say that he was sorry for being such an ass for the past week." Kioko explained " do you want me to get your hair and makeup ready for the ball?"
"Sure, do you think that I should wear tonight Kioko?"
"Not with that dress." Kioko said gathering the necessary tools for her task.
"Yeah I think you are right I'll just wear it another time." Kagome said placing the necklace back in its box.
" Kagome I don't have a brush so I'll go see if Sango has one." Kioko explained exiting her room and jogging to Sango's. She had to tell her how well it went with Kagome. And she had to see how it went with Inuyasha. She got to Sango's room and pulled the door open to find Sango screaming into a pillow.
" I guess it didn't go very well with Inuyasha?" Kioko whispered closing the door for a little more privacy.
" No, it was going well till he opened his big mouth." Sango mumbled into the pillow.
" What happened?" Kioko asked sitting herself in a chair.
" I got there and showed him the blanket" Sango began sitting herself up to talk to Kioko better. " He looked at it and didn't say anything. So I thought that he was happy but he just tossed the blanket carelessly and said it was JUST nice." Sango barked.
Kioko's expression changed ash she listened to Sango go on. " I worked really hard on it." Kioko sighed.
" Its okay Kioko, I think that he liked but didn't want to show it." Sango said reassuringly as she touched Kioko's arm.
Kioko gave a slight nod to Sango. " Well I came here to tell you that everything is going well with Kagome and she really likes the necklace." Kioko trailed off as she walked over to Sango's vanity " and that I need to take this brush because that is what I told Kagome I had to come here for." She said picking a brush up and walking out the door.
" Thanks for asking!" Sango yelled, she heard a faint ' you're welcome' as she closed her door.
When Kioko got back to Kagome's room she found that Kagome had already changed into the dress and was deciding which way she should wear the shawl. " Did you get a brush Kioko-chan?"
" Yeah I mean yes Kagome-sama." She said closing the door.
" You don't have to add that Sama or lady stuff, it's just Kagome or Kagome-chan." Kagome said turning around to give Kioko a gentle smile.
"Well I got the brush from Sango if you want me to still fix your hair."
" Yeah please." Kagome said sitting on a chair in front of her vanity. Kioko gathered the items that she needed and started working Kagome's hair into a nice and neat bun.
" Did you get to see Sango or was she busy."
" Yeah I got to see her but only briefly." Kioko said pinning the hairs that kept falling out of the bun closer to Kagome's head. Once she had finished Kagome pulled a small strand of hair out of the bun and curled it with her finger " There, its perfect, thank you Kioko this is going to be fun." She exclaimed standing up and twirling around in her dress.
" Your welcome Kagome." Kioko said placing the items she used away. " I think the party thing is at 7:00 so you should come down around 6:30." Kioko informed Kagome as she left the room.
* * *
Kagome walked slowly out of her room to find her parents standing right next to the door.
" Kagome since you will be attending the ball we have arranged that Inuyasha is your date." Lady Higurashi smiled.
Kagome frowned in response but followed her mother and father to the carriage waiting outside. She climbed in and seated herself down in a very lady like fashion. They arrived at the place where the ball was to be held 15 minutes later and found the Yasha family. Kagome avoided looking at Inuyasha as he did the same. The parents watched attentively as the people they hoped would form a couple walked into the building. No mater how many times the lords said Lady Higurashi and Lady Yasha couldn't stop turning around to look at Inuyasha and Kagome.
When Lord and Lady Yasha were supposed to be announced Lady Yasha leaned over and whispered something to the announcer. As Inuyasha approached the stairs the announcer grabbed Kagome who had been waiting in line to be announced and placed her next to Inuyasha. He called " The future Lord and Lady Yasha." He then started pushing them to walk forward. The crowd below burst into a loud applause as they walked down the stairs they were both grimacing all the way down.
Lady Yasha and Higurashi grabbed their child's arm and pulled them or more like pushed them into a dance on the dance floor. Kagome and Inuyasha tried to walk away but Lady Higurashi pinched Kagome on the back of the neck and Lady Yasha pulled really hard on Inuyasha's ear.
They quickly moved away from their parents but slowly moved towards each other. " You stitch very nicely." Inuyasha tried his best to do what his mom had told him.
" Oh, thank you but that wasn't my best work." Kagome said in a very lady like manor but blushing. " Thanks for the necklace, it's beautiful."
" Your welcome." Inuyasha replied starring at the floor.
Kagome and Inuyasha walked over to the buffet table engaged in a conversation. " So how old are you in human years?" Kagome asked. " I am about 70 in human years, but in youkai years about 17 years old." Inuyasha said between mouthfuls of food.
" Interesting, so you have been living for awhile."
" Yep."
Inuyasha and Kagome talked for the rest of the ball or most of it talking about their parents, home etc.
" So how many siblings do you have?" Kagome asked.
" 1, Sesshoumaru he is a pain in the ass, You?"
" 1, Souta he doesn't hang around home much even though he is only 10. Right now he is staying with Grandma and Grandpa Higurashi for awhile but he is a pain too."
" Where is Sesshoumaru?" Kagome questioned " and why isn't he taking the throne, or is he not your older brother?"
" He is, but he has abdicated the throne for this area but taken over the Western Lands."
" Wow, I didn't know your father had such a big kingdom."
" he doesn't the Western Lands belonged to Sesshoumaru's mother. But she passed away recently and Sesshoumaru decided to keep the land so he is over there now."
" So you and Sesshoumaru are only step brothers?"
" I consider us half brothers."
" Why did your dad divorce Sesshoumaru's mother?"
" Why are asking so many questions bitch? I don't have to tell you." Inuyasha barked in an annoyed tone.
" Sorry.don't call me a bitch you bastard." Kagome barked.
" Don't talk to me like that you fucking bitch."
" Shut up bastard!"
Kagome walked off but turned around and dumped her glass of punch on Inuyasha's head. She cackled as his hair became a pinky color. He tossed his glass of punch at her as her scream echoed through the hall.
A punch-tossing contest quickly aroused between the two teenagers. The fight quickly changed from a mean standpoint to a fun one. No one stopped the two because they were happy to see them getting along.
Sango and Kioko watched from a balcony above the banquet hall. " Well it went better then I thought it would. I think that this is going to be a lot easier don't you think so too Kioko?"
" Yeah, this is going to be fun." Kioko replied. Kioko felt a hand on her shoulder. She whirled around to find.
AN: Hahahahahahahahahaha! I you all with a cliffhanger. I don't know if I should start the next chapter so soon. If you all review maybe I'll start writing it faster. Please tell me how you like the story. Well see ya! ^_^
