Chapter Five- Shopping!
"Uh, Kagome-chan? Where are we going?" Everyone as sitting in the living room, waiting or Kagome's decision.
"I think it would be best if we went to the mall and split into groups. Sango, Shippou, Miroku, and Inuyasha are coming with me. Youko, Kuronue, you guys go with Yusuke. Kuwabara, Keiko, Botan, and Kurama can go with whoever they want," Kagome said. Botan and Keiko decided to go with Kagome and Kurama and Kuwabara went with Yusuke. "Okaa-san! We're going now! Can I borrow the car?"
"Of course dear," her mother said, peeking her head around a corner. "Be careful."
"Thanks." Turning back to her friends she said, "It's about eleven now. I think we should meet at the food court around one for lunch. "Is that okay?" Everyone agreed. "Does anyone else have a car?"
"I do," Kurama said.
"Oh no! I completely forgot about your appearances! Does anyone know how to hide their ears and tails?"
Shippou chirped, "I do! I've been practicing my illusions! I met a kitsune a year ago. He taught me how to make proper illusions with spells!"
Kagome smiled. "That's great Shippou-chan! Do you think you could out a spell on Inuyasha, Youko, Kuronue, and yourself?"
"Sure 'Kaa-san!"
Shippou clasped his hands together and chanted a quick spell. The demonic features on the four disappeared to be replaced by human ones.
"Wow, Shippou-chan. You did a great job."
The kit beamed and said, "Thanks 'Kaa-san!"
"Kagome, I want to go with you," Kuronue said.
The miko sighed and said, "Fine. We'll switch out Miroku for Kuronue. Happy now?"
"Yes."
"Then let's go." Everyone went outside and walked down the steps to the cars. They separated to their appropriate cars and got in. A few minutes later they arrived at the mall. "Remember, meet at one."
They split up, Kagome's group going towards Hot Topic, Yusuke's heading to PacSun.
"Hey, Sango, how about this?" Kagome held up a pair of black pants lined with red and a red shirt that said, 'Young and Angry' in black.
Sango nodded and picked out some more clothes. Inuyasha and Kuronue chose a few T-shirts, but otherwise got nothing from that store.
As they were leaving, Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi spotted them and ran over. "Kagome, where have you been? It's been like two years since we've seen you! Have you been feeling okay? Hojou(sp?) has been really worried!" Eri gushed.
"Well... I've been away for health reasons. I've been moving around a lot, trying to find some doctors that can really help me."
After she said that, Kuronue leaned down and whispered, "You lie as well as Youko."
Her friends, noticing how close Kuronue was, asked, "Is that your boyfriend Kagome-chan?"
Kagome blushed and Inuyasha got mad and said, "No that is not her boyfriend."
"What would you know you idiot? You're definitely not her boyfriend," Kuronue said.
"Wow, Kagome-chan! You've got two guys fighting over you," Ayumi said happily.
Yuka asked, "Does this mean you're cheating on Hojou?"
Kuronue and Inuyasha tuned and asked at the same time, "Who the hell is Hojou?"
"Guys, let Kagome handle this. Kagome-chan we'll let up catch up later," Sango said, pulling Inuyasha and Kuronue away by their ears. Keiko and Botan followed after them.
"Shippou-chan, do you want to go with Sango?" He shook his head. "Then let's go get a milkshake and talk this over, you guys."
Kagome took them to get a milkshake and then she told them how she never had any feelings for Hojou and how neither Kuronue nor Inuyasha was her boyfriend. "The thing is you guys, I kind of have feelings or the both of them. I've known Inuyasha longer, but I've known Kuronue for a while too. There's also the act that Kuronue's an excellent kisser."
"Why, Kagome-sama does this mean that you won't bare my child?"
Kagome blushed, but then felt something rubbing her backside. "Hentai!" She smacked Miroku and he sat there grinning.
"It was worth the pain." He looked around. "Where did Sango, Keiko, Botan, Inuyasha, and Kuronue go?"
"I could ask the same of Kurama, Yusuke, Youko, and Kuwabara."
"I got bored, so I left them in some store."
"Idiot. How would you have known what time to meet up with us? You don't have a watch, Miroku."
"Then I suppose I'll have to stay with you, won't I?"
Kagome suddenly grinned, scaring her friends. "You just wanted to be near Sango-chan didn't you?"
Miroku smiled. "You read me quite easily Kagome-sama. How did you know?"
"Well, it's obvious that you're in love with her. It's only natural to want to be near her."
"Was it really that evident?"
Shippou nodded and said, "You're always staring at her when you think nobody's looking and you grope her more than anyone else."
"There's also the fact that you watch her while she sleeps."
"How do you know that?"
"Inuyasha told me. He says you sit there for hours just staring at her."
"And Yusuke said that she's all you ever talk about when you speak to him," Shippou added.
"I don't even know you, but I have to agree. It sounds like you're in love," Ayumi said.
Miroku started moving towards her when Kagome hit him upside the head. "Watch it Miroku, or I'll get Sango to hit you."
"It's not my fault! It's my hand! It's cursed!"
Everyone rolled their eyes. "That's hardly an excuse. Hey, here comes Sango now!"
Miroku looked up and smiled as he spotted her. She walked up to them and he greeted her by rubbing her butt.
"Hentai!" She punched him square in the jaw and he flew a few feet before landing on his butt.
Everybody laughed and Kuronue and Inuyasha soon joined them in making fun of the monk. Miroku looked deflated when he said, "It wasn't that funny." They kept laughing at him until Kagome realized that they were hurting is feelings.
She stopped laughing and bent to help him up. "Are you alright Miroku?"
"Of course. I believe my pride was more damaged than anything else."
Kagome grabbed his hand and gave it a small squeeze. She whispered, "You're worried about Sango's opinion, aren't you?" He nodded. "Don't worry. I'm going to find some way to get you two together."
He smiled brightly at her. "Thank you Kagome-sama."
"Will you please stop calling me that? Just call me Kagome."
"From now on I will."
"So, did everyone have fun?"
Inuyasha grumbled and said, "I hate shopping."
"Too bad. After lunch, it's my turn. I haven't been able to shop in a while. Your load will triple," she said, indicating the bags he as currently carrying.
"Triple? Kami, how can you buy so much stuff?"
"Don't worry Inuyasha. I'll find some way to reward you." She turned to Eri, Yuka, and Ayumi. "Got any ideas?"
They grinned evilly. "You could always model some Victoria's Secret merchandise for him."
Kagome blushed bright red. "Are you guys crazy? I'm not going to do that!"
Kuronue was now interested. "I'll carry all of the bags if you do it for me."
"How did I know you were going to say that?" He gave her an innocent look. "Okay, it's a deal."
"Kagome-chan, what time is it?"
"It's almost one. We'll meet up with the others and get some lunch. After that, we'll continue shopping."
"Do you mind if we join you Kagome?" Eri asked.
"Of course I don't mind. Come on you guys, we should start heading towards the food court."
When they got there, they saw Yusuke trying t get there attention.
"Oh my gosh, is that Yusuke Urameshi?" Yuka asked.
"Yeah, why?"
"Won't he try to beat us up or something?"
Keiko, Botan, and Kagome laughed. "Yusuke's really a big softy at heart. Ever since he was a kid he always put on a fake tough guy act. Truth is, he would die for the ones he loves," Kagome said.
"Oh. Is that Shuichi Minamino?!?"
"Huh? Who is that?"
Botan said, "Kagome, Shuichi is Kurama."
"Oh." They continued walking to the others as Yuka, Ayumi, and Eri got excited about meeting Kurama. "Calm down you three."
"What if he doesn't talk to us?"
"Don't worry about that. Shuichi is very polite. It's not in his nature to ignore someone," Keiko said.
They introduced themselves to everybody and hen they all got lunch. Halfway through his burger, Yusuke started to beep.
"What's that Yusuke?"
"Koenma. I'll be back in a sec."
He returned a few minutes later and said, "Botan, we have to go. Koenma wants to talk to the two of us."
"But I don't want to go," Botan said.
"Not my fault. Blame Koenma. Let's go." They stood and said goodbye.
"See ya later guys!"
"Okay, now let's finish shopping. Kuronue, you have to carry everything I buy. Understood?"
Youko asked, "Why is he the only one carrying your stuff?"
"We made a deal. I'm going to model lingerie for him at the end of the day."
Kurama coughed and blushed lightly. "Do you really think you should do that? What if Miroku and Kuwabara see?"
"Don't worry about that. I'll call Kuronue over to the dressing room when I'm ready."
"If you think that's best Kagome...
End of the day
"Okay Kuronue. End of the day. Time for your reward." She led everyone to Victoria's Secret and Kuronue, seeing the merchandise, got excited. "Pick out five items, Kuronue."
He chose five of the most revealing things that he could find and Kagome accepted them.
"Kagome-chan, you're not really going to put those on are you?"
"Of course, Sango-chan. A deal's a deal."
She went to change and Kuronue started hopping from foot to foot in anticipation. A minute later she called him over an opened the door for him to slide in. When he saw her, he immediately started drooling. Kagome noticed this and decided to flirt with him a little. She purred his name and moved closer to him.
"Kagome, why don't you buy one of these?" Kuronue asked, grinning.
"Do you really want me too?" He nodded. "Okay, when I'm done trying them all on, I'll let you choose your favorite alright? You know, the only reason I'm doing this is because you did everything I asked without question. You're the only person to ever treat me so nicely." She gave him kiss and then shooed him out of the stall.
He walked out with a dazed look on his face and his eyes shining. Miroku, being the ever curious one, asked, "How did she look?"
"Wonderful." His face got another dazed look that lasted until she called him again.
This continued until she had tried everything on. When she was done, she came out of the dressing room and asked, "Which one do you want me to buy Kuronue?"
He thought for a moment before responding, "The black one."
"You're going to buy that Kagome-chan?" Sango inquired.
"Yeah, I told Kuronue I would."
She went to the counter and paid and then they all went home. When they got there they met up with Yusuke and Botan, ate the delicious dinner that Mrs. Higurashi made for them, and then watched a movie. By the time they were ready for bed, it was midnight.
"Who's going to sleep where?" Yusuke asked.
"Well, there are three beds in the guest room, so Sango, Botan, and Keiko can stay in there. Shippou can stay in Souta's room and Kuronue and Youko are staying with me. All others have got to find a place in the living room. Inuyasha, you can have your usual place if you want it," Kagome replied.
"Hey, Kagome, why don't you change into the lingerie that you bought today," Kuronue suggested.
She sighed and asked, "You're not going to let me say no, are you?"
"Nope. I'll keep bothering you until you change."
They walked into Kagome's room and she went to change. When she emerged Youko, in his fox form, howled happily. She blushed and told him to shut up. Kuronue whistled and she blushed even more. "You guys are such jerks." She yawned and crawled into bed beside Kuronue, with Youko crawling I beside her. She yawned again and said, "Goodnight you guys."
This chapter is shorter than the last one! Chapter four was eight pages and this one is only six! -sigh- Oh well. I hope you enjoyed it. REVIEW PLEASE!!!
