Hello! Just read that one Chapter 12 review from 'swimshick1614'. Hahaha. And a lot of people comment that Kikyo is a 'bitch'. Haha. I guess it's true, and it's not that I like her or anything, I actually don't. Hahaha, but I just needed somebody to be a good-ishly nice person that didn't die..badly. Hahaha, but anyhow. Sorry for the confusion of any sort!

Chapter 13
'Hey Kagome..it's Inuyasha. I guess you're not home right now, and there's something important I have to tell you. I'd tell you in this message, but I guess it's better if I told you when you're actually talking to me back. So then there wouldn't have to be any questions or anything. Well, when you get this message just call me back. Alright, bye.'
Kagome listened to the message over and over and over when she had gotten home.
'I wonder what he wants to talk to me about..' Kagome thought to herself over and over again.
"Are you playing that message again?!" Miroku said shocked when we came downstairs.
"I just want to know what he wants.." Kagome replied in embarrassment.
"Well.. The normal thing to do would be to call him back? Duh?" Miroku handed her the cordless phone. Kagome rolled her eyes and took it.
She walked back and forth and back and forth the room wondering what she should say.
"Hey Inuyasha! You called?" Kagome shook her head.
"Inuyasha! Yo!?" she shook her head again.
"Hello Inuyasha.. What did you need to tell me?" Kagome shook her head once more.
"How about..'Inuyasha? It's Kagome.. I just got your message, what's up?'" Miroku said while rolling his eyes.
"PERFECT!" Kagome smiled and dialed the number.
"Hello?"
"Hi.. Uhh, Sango?"
"Yes? Kagome?"
"Yeah. Hey! Uhhm, Inuyasha called me earlier saying he needed to tell me something."
"Really? You just missed him, he went off to work a few minutes ago."
"Oh.. oh well, do you have any idea what he might've wanted to tell me?"
"Hmm. OH! OH MY GOSH! OH MY GOSH!"
"What?! WHAT, WHAT?! SANGO??"
"I was walking with him home earlier today.. And I gave him an idea to ask you to the opening!"
"You did WHAT?!"
"Yeah! And he said he'd consider it! Ooo! This is so exciting!"
"Sango!!"
"What?"
"Are you sure that that's what he wanted to say?"
"I don't know, but what else would he have to tell you?"
"True.. True. EEP! What should I do?!"
"Uhhm. Accept?"
"EEP!"
"You're a weird one, Kagome. I'll tell him to call you back when he gets home from work." Sango's giggles were heard on the phone.
"All right...thanks Sango." Kagome said softly.
"No prob. So you're coming to pick up your clothes tomorrow, right?"
"Yep. Okay, well I should be going now. I just got home from shopping with Miroku." Kagome laughed.
"Haha, alright. Tell him I said 'hi'! Bye Kagome!"
"Bye!"

"Sango says hi." Kagome said as she put down the phone.
"You were talking to Sango?! And didn't tell me?!"
Kagome rolled her eyes and went upstairs.
"You'd better hang your clothes other than keeping them in that bag. They're going to wrinkle." Kagome said dully as she went into her room.
She laid down on her bed and thought about what Sango had said.
'...he said he'd consider it!..'
"Would Inuyasha really consider asking me? It seems that he doesn't even like me..." Kagome looked out of her window and saw Sango's house in view.
She sighed to herself and smiled widely. Kagome then took her pillow and put it on her face while squealing with joy.
=================================================================================
Inuyasha walked back to his house after work. On his way there, he thought about what Sango had said.
'...why don't you just give her a chance?..'
"Why don't I?" Inuyasha asked himself as he walked.
'Because she looks like Kikyo, that's why.' he answered himself in his thoughts.
'But if she looks like Kikyo..isn't that to my advantage? Then I could be with her again...but Kagome isn't anything like Kikyo. Kikyo wasn't as outgoing as Kagome is...'
Inuyasha then had a sudden flashback of Kagome smiling at him. He smiled to himself and kept walking.
'I don't even think I could feel for Kagome as I felt for Kikyo...never. I could never love Kagome that much...nobody can take the place of Kikyo..I won't let that happen..'
'...then what do I feel for her?' Inuyasha thought as he put his hand on the doorknob of his house.
"I'm home. Sango?" Inuyasha called out as he took off his shoes.
"Inuyasha? Hey! Kagome returned your call!" Sango ran downstairs to greet him.
"Oh, what'd she say?" he asked.
"Nothing really. She's going to come over tomorrow to pick up her clothes. Just call her back though."
Inuyasha nodded.
"Between me and you, here. She's so psyched about going to the club opening with you!" Sango winked.
Inuyasha looked at her.
"Really? She wants to go with me?" he asked surprised.
Sango nodded and smiled.
"Did you say anything to her to make her want to?" Inuyasha eyed his sister suspiciously.
"No, no! I probably just said a little word, but the rest was basically all her!" Sango giggled.
'Hmph. I wonder what made her want to go with me...like a date?' Inuyasha thought to himself confused.
He grabbed the phone and picked up the piece of paper on the table. He dialed the number and listened to the rings.
"Hello, Higurashi residence. This is Miroku speaking."
"Hey Miroku, you lecher."
"Well if it isn't dog-demon boy." Miroku's laughing was heard on the phone.
"Anyway, you're lucky I just got back from work and I'm too tired to make a comeback towards that! Where's Kagome?"
"Kagome? OoOo. One second."
'KA-GO-ME!!' Miroku called slowly.
'WHAT?' Kagome's voice was heard.
'Phone!'
'Who is it?'
'It's your boyfriend!' Miroku laughed.
Kagome's loud scowl was heard.
'HEY, HEY, GET BACK! GO AWAY, KAGOME!' Miroku's shriek was heard as his laughter faded.
Soon his laughter was stopped and there was a large thump heard on the phone.
"Hello?" Kagome's voice came.
"Kagome?"
"Yes?"
"Oh, hey. It's Inuyasha."
"Hi Inuyasha. Yeah. You called earlier?"
"Yeah..."
"Oh, well I just want to tell you that I'd be happy to go to the opening of the club with you!"
"Really?"
"Yeah! It seems like it'd be really fun."
"Yeah, it does, doesn't it? Well, so I guess that means that you're my....date right?"
"I guess so, and you're mine." Kagome started to laugh.
"There's a problem with that though.."
"Wh-wh-why?" Kagome's voice said in a worried tone.
"I.. I just.. I don't know.."
"Aww, come on. You can tell me."
"I can't really.. Dance."
"You can't dance?"
"Yeah. Why?! YOU GOT A PROBLEM WITH THAT?"
"I didn't say anything offensive to you, you moron! It was only a question of assurance! Sheesh."
"Sorry, Kagome. It's just that I'm embarrassed about it..not even Sango knows that I can't dance. I think."
"Well, I'm not an expert at dancing...but I could probably help you if you'd like?"
"Feh..."
"Come on! It'll be fun!"
"Whatever..okay." Inuyasha mumbled.
"That's great! Don't worry, you won't regret it, Inuyasha! And I promise to be discreet about you not knowing how to...I mean, about this little issue."
"Sure..Oh! I almost forgot. I wanted to remind you to take your headache pills."
"Oh, I know. I took them already. Thanks anyhow."
"Alright. I guess I'll see you tomorrow?"
"Sure!"
"Okay..bye."
"Bye!"

"Little Kagome is growing up so fast..her first date." a swirly eyed Miroku mumbled while on the ground with a lump on his head.
"Do you want another bump to match the one you already have?" Kagome said threateningly as she helped her cousin up from the ground.
"Okay, okay.. Anyhow. I want to thank you for helping me get an outfit for Saturday." he said as he dusted off his shirt while getting up.
"No problem." Kagome said happily.
"Did you want another outfit for Saturday as well?"
"Ehh. Sango said we could just wear out clothes that we bought last time." Kagome shrugged.
"Mm, yes. Sango. She looked ever so beautiful in that outfit." stars began to form in Miroku's eyes.
Kagome rolled her eyes and sighed.
"But it would be nice to look for something else to wear, but I really don't have the money for it."
"I'll pay for it then."
"Are you serious? But you payed for all those other things from last time."
"I'm in a good mood, I guess." he shrugged.
"Hmm. I guess that wouldn't be so bad, would it? I mean, and maybe you could even pick out what I should wear." Kagome said hesitantly.
"BUT I SWEAR IF YOU CHOOSE SOMETHING THAT'S..BARELY EVEN THERE I'M GOING TO–"
"Relax, Kagome! Why would I do that to my own cousin? That's just like incest."
Kagome laughed.
"Fine. I should've expected that. Sorry about that. Anyhow, sure! I'm up for it. Do you think we have time?"
"Sure we do. If we go NOW."
"Alright. Then what're we waiting for? Let's go!" Kagome smiled as she grabbed Miroku by his wrist and out of the door.
=============================================================================
"Come out, Kagome!" Miroku said mockingly like she had done before.
"What if the button comes off?! I'll totally be exposed, Miroku!"
"Why do you think the button is even there, loser? It's not going to come off, I assure you. Just come out."
Kagome opened the door of the dressing room. She was wearing a ruffle wrap mini skirt. It was the color of charcoal and had a herringbone stripe with cascade hem and button at the front. She wore an off the shoulder black and charcoal shirt with a black tank top underneath. The straps of the tanktop were showing. She got four silver bracelts on one arm.
"See! There. That's not so bad, now is it?" Miroku said as he looked at his cousin with pride.
"I guess...it isn't." Kagome said as she looked at herself in the mirror.
"I think it would be a little better if your hair was up. What do you think?" Miroku asked as he observed his cousin. He also tried to block the attention of all of the guys drooling over Kagome.
"Actually, I think you're right." Kagome smiled.
"Okay! Then it's settled. You look great, Kagome." Miroku smiled as he gestured her to get ready so they could pay for the clothes.
