Chapter Eleven

They all go to the mall and the ice rink Miroku, Sango, Kagome, and Inuyasha made chain. They started skated and just when Inuyasha was starting to feel relaxed, Kagome let go.

Inuyasha fell and screamed at Kagome, "What the hell was that for!?!"

"Sorry, butter fingers." Kagome smiled and waved with her free hand.

'She's so cute when she smiled like that.' Inuyasha thought looking at Kagome seeing her with a pink background with bubbles. Miroku slid up to him and sprayed ice onto Inuyasha.

"Sorry man, you need help?" Miroku lent a hand. Inuyasha grabbed it and pulled him up.

"Where are the girls?" Inuyasha asked.

"They're at the bench. Drinking hot cocoa, you wanna go have some?"

"Sure, let's go." They joined the girls and someone came towards them.

"Hey, here comes your stalker." Miroku said to Inuyasha.

"Ugh."

"Hi Inuyasha, you know the semester is over right?" said a voice that belonged to the prepiest girl in the school, Kikyo.

Inuyasha looked at her in a bored expression, "Yeah, so?"

"So…you don't have to go out with her anymore…"

"So…" he said in a mocking way.

"So, you wanna go do something later?"

"With you? No thanks, I'll pass." Inuyasha wrapped his arm around Kagome's shoulder, "I'm fine right here." Kagome stared up at him and looked questionly at him.

"FINE! I was only doing you a favor of getting her off your back!" Kikyo let out a 'hmph' before she turned her heel and walked away all snotty like. Inuyasha let go of Kagome and stuck his tongue out behind Kikyo's back.

"Inuyasha, what was up with that? I would have figured that the second the semester was over, you would have went for the next pretty thing that asked you out." Kagome said.

"Well, you figured wrong." Inuyasha took a sip of his hot cocoa.

"What is that supposed to mean, Inuyasha?" Sango joined in the conversation.

"For real, you just dissed the 3rd hottest chick in the school." Miroku said.

"And who is the second?" Inuyasha laughed.

"Why my dear, Sango is. Hey, wait, don't change the subject, what [i]was[/i] going on?"

"What you just said. Why have [i]third[/i] best when I can have the first?"

Kagome and Sango started walk away when he said that. "What are you men just sitting there for? Go get your women!" Inuyasha dad said.

"Were you eavesdropping again?" Inuyasha accused him.

"So? It's a good thing I did too. Now both of you go get them!"

Kagome and Sango were sitting on the bleachers out onto the ice.

"Sango, will you forgive me for what I said, I didn't mean it, I truly care for you." Miroku said.

"Alright!" Sango jumped into Miroku's arms.

'Sango, so naïve.' Kagome thought looking as her best friends went onto the ice.

"Kagome, what's wrong?" Inuyasha grabbed her hands. Kagome pulled them away and crossed her arms, "Come on, you have to tell me."

"You know what's wrong! You're only going out with me for your own personal gain!"

"It was only a joke! Miroku and I always joke!" Inuyasha caught a glare from her, "Ok, I'm sorry ok? I really do want to go out with you. You know we've never actually went on a date before." Inuyasha smiled.

And how could Kagome resist a sweet smile like that? "Alright, I forgive you. But you have to tell me why you actually still want to go out with me." Kagome smiled lightly.

"I actually don't know, you've just grown on me I guess. I like you as a friend; it's just kinda hard not to like you since we live in the same house." They got up and started to go back on the ice.

"Ok people, now is our time when you skate with the people who you care about. We're going to play a slow song so pair up!" The intercom said.

"May I have the pleasure of you joining this skate with me?" Inuyasha curtsied.

Kagome laughed, "Why of course." They went onto the ice to kind their best friends were also paired up. The song started to play [i]My Immortal[/i] by Evanescence. (a/n, I know this song doesn't match this part of my story but oh well.)

They saw their parents pairing up you know, and with Inuyasha and Kagome's parents crossed paired. The song eventually ended but the stayed there until the mall closed. They went home at 9:00 and got home at 9:30. They all fought over the bathroom too.

"What ever happened to ladies first?!" Kagome screamed being stuck in the doorway with all of her friends also stuck.

"It died along with saying 'bye' to people on the phone." Miroku squirmed. He got loose and went into the bathroom, "Aha!" and he slammed the double doors.

"Why that evil little-"Inuyasha started.

"He's not worth it. Come on Kagome; let's use the bathroom down the hall." Sango said.

"What about me?" Inuyasha said as the girls were walking out.

"You can wait for Miroku." Kagome waved back.

They got back into the room at 10:00 and saw the boys watching TV. But on the way back…

"So, what did Inuyasha say that made you forgive him?" Sango asked.

"Well, he said that I've grown onto him and that he likes me as a friend but still wants to date me."

"Even though you've never been on a date?"

"He doesn't know I've never been on a date, not him or anyone."

On the other side of the wall…were eavesdroppers.

"I didn't know that Kagome has never been on a date before…" Miroku whispered pinning his ear to the wall.

"Me neither, well, I haven't either, but I thought certainly a girl like her would have been on a date by now."

"Well, remember? Your parents have already set you two up at childhood. But you didn't know about it yet…so…did she just reject everyone, waiting for the…"

"Yeah, I guess, wait, they're coming!" they rushed to the TV.

"Well, ready to o to sleep?" Kagome asked.

"Yeah, sure." Inuyasha yawned.

"I'm not." Sango glared at Miroku.

"Come on, we're a couple, there's no need to worry about anything." Miroku assured.

"Sure, and I know we are, but you still better not try anything."

Inuyasha and Kagome climbed into bed and smiled at their friends nearby. "Don't worry, you've live." Kagome lay down and turned off her lamp.

"Yeah, remember you probably have to say here for the rest of winter break, so get used to it." Inuyasha said and turned off his lamp.

"Ugh." Sango said.

Inuyasha and Kagome jumped up when they heard a slap. "Miroku, when will you ever learn?"

"Oww." Was all Miroku could say. The rest of the night was soundless sleeping.
