Chapter Nine (Day Two...evening)
By the time they we out of the music store, it was 5 and the karaoke wasn't open until 6. And it took about an hour to walk to the club. So they listened to their cd's on the way there to memorize it.(A/n, remember they're not going to sing the same songs as in chapter eight.)
When they got there, there was already a line to get in. They found a table next to the stage.
"Ok, everyone, today we're going to have a karaoke contest. Winner gets a free all-you-can-eat meal here," The announcer said," and there will be two rounds... one where you will sing by yourself, and the second you will sing a duet. And let the singing begin!"
4 people sang before the group. Then it was Miroku's turn . He told the band his song and started to sing Invisible by Clay Aiken.
Whatcha' doin' tonight
I wish I could be a fly on your wall
Are you really alone
Still in your dreams
Why can't I bring you into my life
What would it take to make you see that I'm alive
[Chorus]
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I could just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait..I already am)
I saw your face in the crowd
I called out your name
You don't hear a sound
I keep tracing your steps
Each move that you make
Wish I could read what goes through your mind
Wish you could touch me with the colors of your life
[Chorus]
If I was invisible
Then I could just watch you in your room
If I was invincible
I'd make you mine tonight
If hearts were unbreakable
Then I can just tell you where I stand
I would be the smartest man
If I was invisible
(Wait..I already am)
I reach out
But you don't even see me
Even when I'm scream out
Baby, you don't hear me
I am nothing without you
Just a shadow passing through...
[Repeat Chorus]
The song was obviously for Sango. She was touched, but she still didn't understand. But when he got back to his seat, she hugged him and got on stage because it was her turn. She saw going to sing Ordinary Day by Vanessa Carlton.
Just a day, just an, ordinary day
Just tryin' to get by
Just a boy, just an, ordinary boy but
He was looking to the sky and
As he asked if I would come along
I started to realize that everyday he finds just what he's lookin' for
And like a shooting star he shines, and he said
Take my hand, live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
And as he spoke, he spoke, ordinary words
Though they did not feel
For I felt what I had not felt before
And you'd swear those words could heal and
As I looked up into those eyes, his vision borrows mine
And I know he's no stranger
For I feel I've held him for all of time, and he said
Take my hand, live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
Please come with me, see what I see
Touch the stars for time will not flee
Time will not flee, can't you see
Just a dream, just an, ordinary dream
As I wake in bed
And that boy, that ordinary boy
Was it all in my head?
Didn't he ask if I would come along
It all seemed so real, but as I looked to the door
I saw that boy standing there with a deal, and he said
Take my hand, live while you can
Don't you see your dreams lie right in the palm of your hand
Just a day, just an, ordinary day
Just tryin' to get by
Just a boy, just an, ordinary boy, but
He was looking to the sky
Miroku just stared blankly at her, not knowing how to react to her song. Sango came down from the stage and before he could say anything, the announcer called up Kagome. "Why can't I? by Liz Phair." she whispered to the band.
get a load of me get a load of you
walking down the street and i hardly know you
it's just like we were meant to be
holding hands with you when we're out at night
got a girlfriend you say it isn't right
and i've got someone waiting too
what it is its just the beginning
we're already wet and were gonna go swimming
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
why can't i speak whenever i talk about you
it's inevitable, it's a fact that were gonna get down to it
so tell me
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
isn't this the best part of breaking up
finding someone else you can't get enough of
someone who wants to be with you too
it's an itch we know we are gonna scratch
gonna take a while for this egg to hatch
but wouldn't it be beautiful
here we go we're at the beginning
we haven't fucked yet but my head's spinning
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
why can't i speak whenever i talk about you
it's inevitable, it's a fact that were gonna get down to it
so tell me
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
high enough for you to make me wonder, where it's going
high enough for you to pull me under
something's growing out of this that we can't control
baby im dying
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
why can't i speak whenever i talk about you
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
why can't i speak whenever i talk about you
it's inevitable, it's a fact that were gonna get down to it
so tell me
why can't i breathe whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
whenever i think about you
Inuyasha was dumbfounded, her voice was angelic and so wonderful. He was called up next. He was gonna sing Addicted by Simple Plan.
I heard you're doing okay
But I want you to know
I'm a dick
I'm addicted to you
I can't pretend I don't care
When you don't think about me
Do you think I deserve this?
I tried to make you happy but you left anyway
I'm trying to forget that
I'm addicted to you
BUt I want it and I need it
I'm addicted to you
Now it's over
Can't forget what you said
And I never wanna do this again
Heartbreaker
Since the day I met you
And after all we've been through
I'm still a dick
I'm addicted to you
I think you know that it's true
I'd run a thousand miles to get you
Do you think I deserve this?
I tried to make you happy
I did all that I could
Just to keep you
But you left anyway
How long will I be waiting?
Until the end of time
I don't know why I'm still waiting
I can't make you mine
Heartbreaker
I'm addicted to you
"Ok, wow, we have some amazing voices here tonight, more than I have seen in a month actually.". the announcer said, " You have all made it to the next round, now pair up." Obviously Inuyasha wanted to pair up with Miroku pulled him away. They picked out their songs and the other duets went first. Then it was Inuyasha's and Miroku's turn. They told the band, "Santana 's Why don't you and I."
Since the moment I spotted you
Like walking around with little wings on my shoes
My stomach's filled with the butterflies...and it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never going to come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied
Pre-Chorus
Everytime I try to talk to you
I get tongue-tied
Turns out everything I say to you
Comes out wrong and never comes out right
Chorus
So I'll say 'why don't you and I get together
and take on the world and be together forever
Heads we will and tails we'll try again
So I say why don't you and I get together and
fly to the moon and straight on to heaven
Cause without you they're never going to let me in
When's this fever going to break?
I think I've handled more than any man can take
I'm like a love-sick puppy chasing you around
And it's alright
Bouncing round from cloud to cloud
I got the feeling like I'm never going to come down
If I said I didn't like it then you know I'd lied
Pre Chorus - repeat
Chorus - repeat
Bridge
Slowly I begin to realize this is never going to end
Right about the same time you walk by
And I say 'Oh here we go again'
Pre-Chorus - repeat
Chorus - Repeat
The girls were just shocked out of their minds. The guys smirked at their reactions. It was the girl's turns. They were going to sing What I like about you by Lillix

The girls smiled as the walked down from the stage. "Well now, the judges have the winners of the contest ...and they are... Inuyasha, Kagome, Sango, and Miroku!" the announcer screamed over all the clapping there was.
Inuyasha eating the most of course they left for home.
"Thank you for singing that song for me." Inuyasha whispered in Kagome's ear. They were walking side by side in front of Sango and Miroku. She just smiled and said, "You're..."
"YOU PERVERT!" Sango yelled at the top of her lungs, "and I thought we were actually going to have a serious conversation! Ahh! MEN!" she whacked him on the back of his head and fell down hard on the sidewalk and stomped up to Kagome and pulled her away from Inuyasha and started running, so Kagome ran with her. Leaving a stunned Inuyasha and a monk faced down on the hard concrete. Miroku lifted up his face "Your plan to impress Sango didn't go all the way through did it?" Inuyasha asked his perverted friend.
"Nope, but it almost did."
"Emphasis on almost."
So they walked the rest of the way home.
By the time they we out of the music store, it was 5 and the karaoke wasn't open until 6. And it took about an hour to walk to the club. So they listened to their cd's on the way there to memorize it.(A/n, remember they're not going to sing the same songs as in chapter eight.)
