Chapter 5: The Perfect Outfit

Disclaimer: Just a reminder, I do not own any of the characters in this fanfic except for David, minor character. On with the story, then!

When all the students had eaten breakfast, the 1st bell rang. Inuyasha and Sesshomaru went back to their dorm to get their books and other school stuff.
"See ya later, Sess!" Inuyasha called as they left the boys' dorms building. He suddenly smiled at the thought of seeing Kagome again in a few minutes. Quickly, he crossed the grassy field between the classrooms building and the boys' dorms. Ignoring the annoying, yet still hopeful girls following him, Inuyasha found Ms, Kaede's room and walked briskly inside. Kagome, her twin, and their friends weren't there yet, he saw immediately.

"We still have 30 minutes until class starts...what do you guys want to do?" Kikyo asked.
"Um...I...I want to...to see Inuyasha...," Kagome began, blushing, "Let's go to class."
"Come on! Kag, are you really serious about this guy? I mean, he's the first one you've actually looked at as a guy," Kikyo reminded her twin, you don't have any experience!
"Exactly, I've never felt anything like this for anyone before, so I think I should take it seriously," Kagome retorted.
"Well," Sango said, "I think Kag can decide her own feelings, Kik," she compromised, "I mean, he is kinda cute, heh heh!"
"See?" Kagome asked.
"Alright, alright, if you say so," Kikyo replied, holding her hands up in defense, "I give up." Kagome smiled, and their argument was over. The girls went to their classroom and saw Inuyasha already there, waiting for Kagome.
She walked over shyly.
"Hi," she greeted him. He looked up, startled.
"Hey," Inuyasha replied, "Um, I wanted to ask you, where do you want to meet me before the uh, dance?" he asked. Several girls gasped, not knowing that their dreamboy was out of their reach.
"Um, how about next to the flag in front of the dance building?" she suggested slowly, feeling her cheeks burning as the other girls glared at her in envy.
When all their classes were over and they had finished their homework, the girls decided what they were going to do next.
"Let's go shopping," Kagome suggested, "I want to buy a dress for the dance. You guys should too!"
"Yeah," they replied. Then, both girls blushed red.
"Well, who?" Kagome asked.
"Who what?" they replied quickly.
"Duh! Spill it! Who has the honor of taking my 2 beautiful friends to the dance?" Kagome asked, pretending to be frustrated. They blushed and shifted their feet uncomfortably. Kikyo answered first.
"Um, well...there's this guy I met in the hall yesterday. His name's Sesshomaru, Sess for short. He, he...um, well," she hesitated, and then went on, "he asked me to...to go to the dance with him and I said yes after we chatted for a while," Kikyo blurted out then said sheepishly to Sango, "Your turn!"
"No, wait! Did you say Sesshomaru, Sesshomaru Youkai? What a coincidence!" Sango cried, "Isn't he Inuyasha Youkai's older brother?"
"Wait...," Kikyo said slowly, "Yeah...he has silver hair too!"
"So, what about your guy, Sango?" Kagome asked her friend.
"Okay," Sango said after taking a deep breath, "Um, you see...in our math class, this guy named David, David Adams, sits next to me. He, um, asked me to go to the dance with him after class. And I said yes. That's why I stayed behind a while. He's really sweet...," Sango trailed off, a dreamy smile on her face.
Kagome remarked to Kikyo, "Who's the lovesick one now?" and laughed.
The girls continued to tease each other all the way to Kikyo's car, and they hopped in, giggling. She drove them to 'Limited Too' and parked. Then, the 3 teenage girls bounced out giddily.
"Let's go get those dresses!" Kagome said happily and bounded into the evening gowns section.
"We need something sexy, that'll make our guys go head over heels for us," Sango announced.

Kikyo's POV:

Kagome, Sango, and I started looking for dresses and skirts we liked. I'd narrowed mine down to 3: a very lacy old fashioned white one, with fashionably slashed open sleeves and a long train, like a wedding dress; a simple evening silk gown, strapless and sexy, matching my eye color; and a navy blue miniskirt, sexy and simple, showing Sess to work hard to win my affections, perfect for a first date. I went over to my friends.
"Hey guys," I said, "Which one do you like best?" I asked, holding the dresses up.
"I like the miniskirt," they replied at the same time, and then laughed.
"Thanks! I like this one the best too. It's perfect!" I cried happily.

Sango's POV:

Lucky Kikyo! She'd already gotten a dress: a navy blue miniskirt, just her type, to show Sesshomaru that she had not worked too hard on her outfit, and I sighed. It was perfect for a first date.
I looked down. I had also narrowed my favorites down to 3, like Kik. One was a long bright red silky gown, with thin straps to accent my narrow shoulders. The second was a rock star style miniskirt, with long strings of beads dangling from the bottom, and a matching shirt, with 'cut' open sleeves and strings of beads dangling from the ends of the sleeves as well. Big hoop earrings and a bandanna would go well with this outfit, I decided, exactly my style. The third was a long, formal gown, with short sleeves. It was made of silk, and stuck to my thin figure when I tried it on. I couldn't decide which one was my favorite, so I decided to ask my friends too.
"Girls?" I asked, holding up the 3 outfits, "Which one fits me the best?" Both pointed to the rock star outfit. I smiled, thinking, exactly my type. Now Kag was the only one without an outfit.

Kagome's POV:

I sighed, frustrated. I still hadn't decided between my 2 favorites.
The first one was a sea-green gown, matching my eyes (Inuyasha's favorite) and brought them out. It was made of silk, long and graceful with thin shoulder straps. When I tried it on, the long gown accented my figure, my friends told me.
The second one was a thin, short, smooth, white, cotton skirt with graceful riffles at the bottom half. A blue shirt (in the same style as Sango's rock star shirt) with shiny yellow stars went with the skirt and they matched perfectly.
"Which one do you guys like?" I asked the other two.
"I think you should wear the sea-green gown to the dance, and change into the other outfit to dance. Inuyasha will fall in love with your figure..., not that he doesn't right now though," Kikyo added thoughtfully.
"Great idea!" Sango agreed, smiling.
So I bought them both, and left 'Limited Too' with my friends, each of us holding a shopping bag, mine being the biggest.
