Chapter Eighteen

"What do you think?" Kagome whispered.

"They're whispering, you think they're onto us?" Kagome's mom asked.

"Nah, we're too good at hiding. Hey, what happened at the social? Anything good?" Sango's mom asked.

Sango cuddled against Miroku, "I would say so."

"Way to go, son!" Miroku's dad said. Slap "Hey, what was that for?"

"I don't think our son would do something like that at his age, at least not without telling one of us first." Miroku's mom said.

"Did he…Sango?" Sango's mom asked.

"Yes mom he did!" Sango hugged Miroku.

Sango's dad dropped his jaw. "You're not serious are you?"

"Dad! Not like that, I mean he finally told me!" Sango squeezed Miroku tighter.

"Sango, you're cutting my circulation." Miroku said. Sango let go and laughed, "What do you mean FINALLY?"

"Well, it was kind of obvious you were going to tell me that you love me. So I just played you along and acted oblivious." Sango gave him innocent eyes and started to listen to the conversation.

"Oh Inuyasha, how could you do that to me!" Kagome yelled. She took her cup of water and threw it in Inuyasha's face.

"Why you bitch!" Inuyasha slapped his hand across her face, actually, it was his slapping his own hand.

Under the table, they could only hear what they were saying, a slash, and a slap. So the people under there had to make their own conclusions and made a cringing face as if that slap had to hurt.

"You know what?! We're over!" Kagome screamed. Heads started to turn.

"We were over before you said that!" Inuyasha screamed and people started to stare in interest.

Everyone from under the table jumped out, resulting in flipping over the table, "No! You two were perfect from each other!" They all screamed.

"And that ladies and gentlemen, is a scene from "Don't Ever Leave" (I dunno if it's real, if it is, I don't own it.) an original play." Kagome announced and people started to clap and returned to their meals.

"Haven't you done enough eavesdropping?" Inuyasha accused the group.

"Who us?" They said in unison.

"No, the pigs that are flying out of my ass, of course you!" Kagome said with her hands on her hips.

"Well, we didn't mean too!" Sango said.

"Yeah, you just happened to crawl under a table WITH our parents and listen to what we were saying!" Kagome said.

"I take it that you're pissed off." Miroku said nervously.

"Yeah… you think?" Inuyasha said.

"Then you two aren't really breaking up?" Sango asked.

Inuyasha and Kagome looked at each other; their giggle progressed to a HUGE laugh. "You're kidding right?" Inuyasha managed to get out of his laugher.

"Well, we're going outside and sit on the benches thy have on the deck. See ya!" Kagome waved back to the awestricken group while Kagome and Inuyasha were leaving hand in hand. (Hey, this date is a bit long isn't it? Like what, 4 chapters? Here's the ironic thing, I've never been out on a date, and I write so much on one. Lol.)

"Uh, so what just happened?" Sango's dad said.

"I don't know, but I think they have the right idea to be alone. I think that we might want to be alone too. We're going to go sit on one of those benches too." Sango said. Miroku and Sango soon left.

"Well, since we have been eavesdropping all night, I think we should go eat." Inuyasha's dad said.

"Good idea." Kagome's dad said. They all went over too their table and ordered something to eat.

Meanwhile...

Kagome and Inuyasha were sitting on a bench, on one side of the ship, looking out into the sea and moon. Kagome was leaning on Inuyasha's shoulder cuddling up against him with her legs on the bench. Inuyasha laid his head against hers and put his head on hers which was on his shoulder.

Kagome just had to break the silence, "Hey, Inuyasha?" he didn't respond. "Inuyasha?" Kagome looked up and Inuyasha kissed her. Kagome was shocked. 'What the-'She deepened the kiss and so they stayed there.

'She's- she's actually enjoying this?' Inuyasha thought right after his lips landed on hers. 'Am I enjoying this?'

Miroku and Sango were also on a bench on one side of the boat. They looked at Inuyasha and Kagome the whole time. When they finally kissed, Miroku and Sango turned around. "Isn't the sea so beautiful?" Sango said.

"Yeah, I mean and it's snowing too." Miroku said.

"I adds even more brilliance to it." Sango had a big smile on her face, "So, how long have you 'loved' me?"

"Well, it's hard to say, I've always liked you. I just realized that I loved you when Inuyasha and Kagome were so in denial." Miroku said, "So how long have you loved me?" Miroku said in the same tone as Sango's.

Sango smiled sweetly, "I think ever since Kagome has mentioned you. Like at the beginning of the-"Miroku caressed Sango's face and lead it into a deepened kiss. It was a nice and gentle kiss. Unlike someone else's…

By now, Inuyasha and Kagome broke apart and panted heavily. "Wow." Kagome said.

"Yeah, was…was that your first kiss?" Inuyasha asked. They both were staring at the moon and stars, the stars shown and twinkled more brightly against the reflection of sea.

Kagome smiled, "No."

Inuyasha frowned a bit. "When was it?"

She smiled more brightly, "Just now." Inuyasha brightened up, "Can…can I have my second?" So, they kissed again. It was more of making out…"Oh, Inuyasha" she moaned (no…it's not what you think, they were just kissing)

"Ok Kikyo…"

"WHAT THE HELL DID YOU JUST CALL ME?!" Kagome stood up and slapped him. She marched over to where Miroku and Sango were looking out into the sea. She grabbed Sango and ran off the dock and grabbed a taxi.

"Uh, Kagome, you mind telling me what happened?" Sango asked when they got in the taxi.

"Let's just say we broke up, because he's a JERK! HE CALLED ME KIKYO!" Kagome yelled.

"Oh, I'm so sorry, Kagome."

"I never want to see him ever again. Can I stay over at your hose?"

"I guess, will your parents mind?"

"I doubt it. Thank you so much!" Kagome hugged her best friend and were on their way to Sango's house.

Miroku walked over to where Inuyasha was sitting alone, "Damn, you must have REALLY screwed up. What did you do this time?"

Inuyasha was rubbing his face where Kagome slapped him, I accidentally called her Kikyo."

"No why would you do a thing like that?"

"It just slipped, I hate Kikyo. Hey, my parents will probably know what happened, so can I live with you until whenever?"

"Sure, but you're going to bump into her everywhere you know."

"Not if we avoid her everywhere we go." Inuyasha stood up and started walking onto the dock, "And trust me, I don't think I want to bump into her anytime soon. I take that slap as a break up."

"You think? "

The next morning, Kagome and Sango walked to school together earlier than usual so they don't run into the guys.

"Wow, isn't the snow so beautiful?" Kagome said as they walked to school. The sun was shining on the snow, it reflected and glimmered.

"Yeah, it is." Sango smiled.

"Oh my gosh, I just realized that I pulled you away from your boyfriend! I'm so sorry, I can uh; go by myself so you can hang out with Miroku if you want." Kagome panicked.

"Oh, no, it's ok. Miroku called me earlier and told me that something was up, too. And I told him that I had things to do, also. I guess you can say our relationship is on hiatus." They got to school. In all of their classes, Kagome and Inuyasha managed to avoid each other. Instead of sitting next to each other, they sat next to their best friends and letting Sango and Miroku sit closer to each other.

"Kagome, you're going to have to talk to him sometime." Sango said. "I mean, it's not like you're over him, I know you better than that, I know you want to talk to him and I know you're thinking about him right NOW! Are you even paying attention to me?" Sango screamed.

"Huh? Oh, yeah, "Kagome was staring over at the other lunch table where Miroku and Inuyasha were and she let out a heavy sigh, "You know what? I can't get him off my mind, but after that scene, it's going to be hard to talk to him. You have to keep me away from him ok?"

"Wait, what? You want to talk to him, but you can't. You want to see him, but you want me to stop you?"

"Exactly."

"Alright, but you know I'm going to be tough."

"Good, because I know that I might sneak off and see him or something like that."

"Ok, you know what?" I'm over him now, so you don't have to check on me."

"Ok."

"NO! That was a test, and you failed."

"I'm sorry, give me another test."

"Ok, but you have to promise to never give into my whatsoever begging."

"Alright."

"Inuyasha, you're staring at her again." Miroku looking at Inuyasha who had that love-sick pathetic look on his face.

"What? Yeah, I know, I can't stop thinking about her. How could I be so stupid? I mean, I said another girl's name. And one that we both loathe at that!"

"Ok, from now on, you're going to have to stop me from seeing her, I could bet you that I'm going to go nuts and do something crazy."

"Why? You want to see, her so why do I have to stop you?"

"Because she hates me and as far as the school knows, we're still a couple that got into a huge fight. She probably doesn't ever want anything to do with me ever again."

"You got a huge kiss huh" Inuyasha nodded. "That's what I thought. And your first kiss at that. Lucky you."

"Well you should know. I bet you were watching the whole time."

"So?" Miroku grinned.
