Hi Hi Hi Hi Hi pipz!! Sorry for the super late update!! I just finished 4 exams and 2 more to go, I was so exhausted everyday waking up early in the morning and studying... Phew at last 3 main curse is removed! Yay! Just wish me luck that I passed my exams!
Now back to the story.
Darn it! Another problem on !! It's ruining my story!!! ARRRRRGGHH!!!
I need to change it again, I'm sorry but it's not my fault always have some problems on other symbols.
(Reminder: # bla...bla...bla... # = Kagome's text, % bla...bla...bla... % = Sesshoumaru's text)
I hope # and % won't be a problem on It gets so annoying.
Chapter 3 – Pretend with Me
"Are you on crack?" Kagome whispered in shock, her mouth opens and closes like a fish gasping for oxygen. Sango got the feeling that they're going to talk personally so she grab Miroku's hand and dragged him out of the room. Kikyou did the same with Inuyasha.
"Errr guys... we need to go! Bye Kagome, have a nice time!" Sango giggled and shut the door, Kagome glared at the door.
"Some friends you guys are..." she muttered angrily, preparing to run after them, but Sesshoumaru grabbed her arm. She winced as he pulled her injured arm in attempt to stop her from running away. He quickly withdrew his hold on her, guilt somewhat consumed his whole being.
"I'm sorry." He mumbled his apology, Kagome cradled her injured arm with her other arm.
"It's okay, you didn't mean it." She whispered back, "Why did you lie? You should have been honest with Inuyasha." She could feel her heart tighten. She somehow knew his answer would hurt her deeply. She just stared at her shoes intently.
"It's not an actual lie..." he argued, thinking of what to say incase she ask again.
"What do you mean it's not an actual lie?" she asked confusedly, sitting her self beside him.
"I do like you, as a friend." She nodded for him to continue, "I'm having a party next month, which is I told you yesterday. I was wondering if you could be my girlfriend then." She stared at him in shock, "Can you pretend to be my girlfriend so that all those girls would stop following me? And my dad kept on insisting I should have a girlfriend before the due date, and that's next month."
Kagome was speechless, "You want me to pretend to be your... girlfriend?" she repeated in shock, "Are you sure?" she questioned, a frown on her face, 'And I thought he was serious about the matter.' She thought silently, a little disappointed.
"Positive, you seem well mannered enough." He teased, he was not prepared to see her eyes shot him an evil glare.
"Why you little-" she raised her fist and prepared to punch him, but he blocked it with his hand... his injured hand to be exact.
/PAK/
"Owww..." Sesshoumaru visibly flinched as he rubbed his newly punched hand. Kagome covered her lips and quickly grab his hand to examine it.
"Sorrysorrysorrysorrysorry!!! I didn't mean to!!" she kept on bowing her head in shame, "Does it hurt?" she asked with a cautious tone, eyeing him.
"I'm okay, just say yes. It's just pretend."
"..." Kagome quickly turned her back on him, dropping his hand gently on the couch.
"I won't force you." Kagome felt the couch shifted and looked up; he stood up and walked to the door. Kagome felt guilty and quickly stood up, her hand fisted beside her.
"Wait..."
Sesshoumaru quickly turned to her direction, silently smiling for himself, 'I knew that would do the trick.'
"Umm... in one condition..."
"Shoot."
"Don't take my first kiss." She mumbled shyly, it was very uncommon to hear a girl her age untouched before; she could feel his eyes bore into her face.
"But of course, it was after all, a pretend. But kisses on the cheek are allowed right?"
"But-"
"-It would be obvious to all that we're pretending if we don't. And your mom requested for me to walk with you to school, she would be relieved that we're 'The thing' and not worry anymore."
Kagome blushed deeply, 'He does have a point... it's alright I guess...'
"Fine by me." She finally answered, she looked up and saw him smile at her, was her eyes playing games with her? Did she just see him smile at her lovingly? 'Yeah right, I was hallucinating.' She told herself. She didn't even notice his movement until he was leaning oh so close to her.
"Then I think I'll take my leave. See you tomorrow, Kagome." With that said, he kissed her on the cheek. He withdrew and stared at her eyes, she was frozen on the spot. He pinched her cheek and smirked as she yelped.
"What was that for?!" she glared at him while caressing her red cheek, he laughed at her face.
"Nothing, I really should go now Kagome." He smiled at her and opened her door, "There is no need to go with me. I can go down by myself, rest Kagome." He closed the door with a gentle squeak, Kagome watched at his movements with a dreamy smile on her face.
She squealed and jumped around happily, she didn't even know what she was doing. She opened her cabinet and looked at herself on her full-length mirror.
"You go girl!" she told her reflection, a bit troubled at her wrapped arm but it didn't bother her good mood right now. She stood in the center of her room, eyes closed and bounce herself on top of her comfy bed like a kid, and she jollily jumped on it. Not caring what it would be like after she did that.
She kept on jumping happily that she didn't even hear someone knock on her door, there was a squeaking sound and the door burst opened and Sesshoumaru stared at her jumping form with amusement in his eyes.
"Ahem." He interrupted her happy trance. She abruptly opened her eyes and landed on Sesshoumaru's laughing form. Her eyes widened and she lost her balance. He was on her side and she was dangling in his arms.
"Errr... what are you doing back here?" she asked, a deep blush formed on her cheeks, 'I can't believe he just saw that!! Oh shit!!'
"I forgot something in your room and I wasn't expecting this kind of welcome party from you." He joked, smirking slightly. He hauled her up by an arm on her slim waist. She gave out a small giggle.
"Ahehe..." she laughed shyly, running a hand on her slightly tangled hair. Sesshoumaru got the look on her face that she was really embarrassed so he decided not to go further.
"I forgot my phone on your table." He withdrew his arm from her waist and walk towards her table. He noticed another phone lying beside his.
"Oh okay."
"Is this yours?" he asked, pointing on the wireless phone beside him.
"That? The card is mine but the phone is my mom's. She's not using hers so I decided to get it. It's expensive buying a phone you know."
"Okay. Can I get your number?" he asked her coolly.
"My number? Errr... next time." She answered, somewhat smiling to herself that she can text him anytime, 'Well, not many people know his number. I always heard those fan girls of his asking for his number. Duh, what kind of fan girls are they?'
Sesshoumaru was disappointed with her answer but he didn't show it, he just nodded and bid goodbye to her.
"Perhaps being his 'pretend' girlfriend would be an exciting thing for me." She giggled and grabs her cell phone on the table.
"Now let me see what Sesshy is doing." she mumbled to herself.
# Heloooooow Sess!!! R u busy? #
Kagome pressed send and sat down on her chair; she stared silently at her computer monitor.
"Kagome! Sango is on the phone!" her mom called out outside her door.
"Okay mom! Thanks!" She replied back and pick up her extension phone beside the computer.
"Hello?" The voice on the other line asked.
"Sango? It's me Kag."
"Oh! Hehe... hey will you go online now? I want to chat with you."
"Duh you're already chatting with me."
"I mean on the net! Please Kagome??"
"Yeah fine fine... which chat room?"
"Errmmm... wait clicking on the other line Here it is! Students of Shikon High School, lousy name for a chat room isn't it?"
Kagome stifled a giggle, "Yeah, who created that room?"
"I don't know, but apparently it s only for Shikon students. They ask you for your teacher's name or that junk. You know Atsushi?"
"Errr ya? The nerdy guy who's obsessed in computer stuffs?"
"Ya that guy! He somehow managed to put a password box on the chat room. Cool huh? They ask you for your favorite and least favorite teacher."
"And then?"
"If they recognize that teacher on our campus, they'll let you in. If not you're kick out."
"Oohh sounds scary... Okay I'll go."
"Some of them are not really from our school, they just guess names and they got it unbelievably."
"Uh huh..."
"Maybe you could find a chat mate."
"Oh, I'm really not into those, Sango."
"But you might as well try! It's fun! I met a girl just now who's studying in our neighboring school, she said so many things li-"
"I get the idea Sango. I'll go there, I promise."
"Oh okay, bye!"
Kagome let out a sigh, lowering the phone. She pressed the switch to her computer and waited for a while.
"Chat mate huh?" she wondered aloud, "I already have a text mate, now I'm searching for a chat mate. What's next? Soul mate?" she laughed at herself. She connected her Internet and went to her yahoo messenger.
"Lemme see... sandy room... shiny room... shit room... shit face room... shit head room... what's up with those shit?" she wondered with a disgust look on her face, "People these days... skinny room... Smut room... Students of Shikon High School... aha!" she clicked and stared at her monitor. More than 30 of the students are on line.
"Sango isn't joking when she said that some people don't belong in here..." she muttered under her breath, "Normally it's only 5 or 10 of us..."
A box popped out, asking for her teacher.
"Mrs. Samui" She typed, she wasn't surprised when she was accepted in the group.
=D computer screen =D
Sangotomboy: Hey guys! Whatz up?
Atsushipc: Nothing much. Cool me I got up a password box.
Lickmenow: guys anyone been French kissed before?
Ihatemyself: ya, it was awesome!
Loplop90: ewww guys! Don't talk about that topic!
Ihatemyself: you just don't know the feeling!
Pogi9876: Yeah right. Anyone want to watch movie with me?
Loplop90: and who are you?
Pogi9876: I'm Daiku from Yukina High school!
Lickmenow: Ah! A trespasser! Atsushi!
::: Pogi9876 has been kicked out of this room :::
Sangotomboy: serves him right. =)
=D
Kagome finally registered herself on this room. "After all, I did promise Sango that I'd go..."
She tapped her fingers idly on her mouse, "What name?" she caught sight of her mom's cell phone, a silver crescent moon chain dangling beside it.
"I know!" She squealed and typed her chat name.
=D Computer Screen =D
::: Mikazuki Tsuki had joined this room :::
Lickmenow: Who the hell is Mikazuki Tsuki?
Mikazuki Tsuki: None of your business.
Loplop90: Ooh... a challenging one... tell me, r u a gurl or a boy?
Mikazuki Tsuki: Girl, don't talk to me again cuz I won't reply.
=D
"I can't believe them..." Kagome grumbled, "Sango, where are you?" she asked aloud as she scroll down to search for a Sango-attitude name. That's when she spotted Sangotomboy.
"It suits her." She giggled and private message her.
=D Computer Screen =D
Mikazuki Tsuki: Hi Sango, it's me Kag.
Sangotomboy: Oh! So you're the meanie one who just shut those people up.
Mikazuki Tsuki: ya, Lickmenow was kinda rude to me. Who the hell is that?
Sangotomboy: I have no idea. =)
Mikazuki Tsuki: So Wazzup?
Sangotomboy: I should be the one to ask you that question!
Mikazuki Tsuki: Huh?
Sangotomboy: So what happen?
Mikazuki Tsuki: What r u talking about?
Sangotomboy: Oh come on Kagome! Don't be "innocent" with me. So what happen between you and the hot guy?
Mikazuki Tsuki: Sango! Nothing happened!
Sangotomboy: R u sure? Friends shares...
Mikazuki Tsuki: Promise you won't tell anybody?
Sangotomboy: Ha! I knew you were hiding something. Ya I promise, cross my heart, you can kill me if I tell a single soul.
Mikazuki Tsuki: He asked me...
Sangotomboy: OMG!! A date? R u guys the 'thing' already? When's the engagement? Can I be your bride's maid? Oh please Kagome tell me all the details!
=D
She sighed, why had she befriends with Sango of all people?
=D Computer Screen =D
Mikazuki Tsuki: Sango clam down...
Sangotomboy: How can I calm myself? I'm so excited for you!
Mikazuki Tsuki: I'm not.
Sangotomboy: You're not? Did I say something wrong? Did he harass you? Did he say something that hurt your feelings?
Mikazuki Tsuki: First you were excited, now you sounded like you're going to kill him.
Sangotomboy: Fine I won' talk anymore. Please tell me what happen Kagome.
Mikazuki Tsuki: He asked me to pretend to be his girlfriend until his birthday.
Sangotomboy: Oh my... what did you say?
Mikazuki Tsuki: I said yes... do you think I said the wrong one?
Sangotomboy: No, I think you're right about your decision. He's a nice guy... I think. And you two look awesome together!
Mikazuki Tsuki: Thanks. =) Promise you won't tell anybody k?
Sangotomboy: Promise. Sorry gurl but I must go, Kohaku is pestering me, he wanted to use the computer to play online game with his friends.
Mikazuki Tsuki: K, I understand. Bye then.
Sangotomboy: Bye! Try chatting with someone else on this room.
Mikazuki Tsuki: K, I'll try to find someone interesting. Do you know anyone here?
Sangotomboy: I just know you and Atsushi. But I notice one person on this room that didn't even type a letter in.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Oh? How come?
Sangotomboy: No idea. But his name in the room is Taiyoukai of the Western Lands.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Ok, I'll check him out later. Bye.
::: Sangotomboy just log out :::
=D
"Taiyoukai of the West..." She mumbled, "Isn't that Lord S?" she thought silently for a minute.
"Hey, I like him, that's why my name is Mikazuki Tsuki because of his crescent mark on his forehead! This guy...we are connected somewhat..." she smiled and decided to private message him.
=D Computer Screen =D
Mikazuki Tsuki: Hi! Care to chat with me?
=D Sesshoumaru's Mansion =D
He put down his book and lazily rub his temples, he had been thinking about his fake proposal to her until now.
"Why can't I stop thinking about her?" he growled in irritation, he arched an eyebrow when he heard his yahoo messenger buzzed loudly. He stood up from his bed and walk towards his lonely computer, which he didn't even bother to look at after he logged in; he clicked on the beeping message and glared at it.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Hi! Care to chat with me?
He shook his head, "I have no time for these games." He closed the message and sat down on his chair, opening his backpack and getting out his homework and projects. A buzz rang out again from his computer and he looked up.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Heloooooow??
He closed the message again, slightly annoyed at those nonsense things, he just logged in for some reason that he didn't know. He opened his Chemistry book and had just begun to scan the first paragraph when the buzzing of the computer broke his concentration. But he doesn't have his concentration on the contents of the book. His mind was still drifting in space trying to find a constellation that looks like Kagome.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Are you alive?
"That's it!" he growled and punched his table, grabbed his keyboard and typed his curses with vociferous hits.
=D Computer Screen =D
Taiyoukai of the West: Who the hell r u and why r u pestering me?!
Mikazuki Tsuki: Oh I'm sorry!! You should have at least put up a damn NO on my first attempt to even chat with you!
Taiyoukai of the West: I was busy, and you don't have the rights to tell me what to do.
Mikazuki Tsuki: For heaven's sake! It's just 2 letters! N.O. NO! If you just told me no I could just leave you.
Taiyoukai of the West: You don't know whom you're arguing with.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Oh yeah? However you also don't know whom you're arguing with!
=D
He sighed, "This girl has guts to argue with me because she don't know me."
'But it's also your fault, you should have said NO in the first place!' his subconscious mind yelled at him.
'It's her fault she started pestering me.' He argued back.
'She just wanted to be friends with you.' His mind tried to calm him.
'I'm antisocial.'
'But you're nice to Kagome, why not be nice to Mikazuki?'
He immediately shut up and didn't argue back.
=D Computer Screen =D
Taiyoukai of the West: Fine, I apologize to you for my rudeness.
Mikazuki Tsuki: =) It's okay I guess, I'm also rude, so... I'm sorry! And I apologize for disturbing you. I guess I'll leave you.
Taiyoukai of the West: Maybe some other day we can chat online, I'm quite busy with homework right now.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Oh I understand, just one question before I go.
Taiyoukai of the West: And that is?
Mikazuki Tsuki: Why did you pick up that name?
Taiyoukai of the West: My name? I idolize Lord S of the West for his vicious characteristics, and I like his stoic façade.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Hey we have the same idol! I also idolize Lord S, not only handsome, he's ruling was awesome and everybody feared him! For me that was sooo cool!!! I dedicate my name for the crescent moon on his forehead.
Taiyoukai of the West: Oh? It seems that faith had made some arrangement...
Mikazuki Tsuki: Huh?
Taiyoukai of the West: Nothing.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Oh fine, bye then. Nice chatting with you. Oh yeah I'm a girl.
Taiyoukai of the West: Nice chatting with you too. Boy.
Mikazuki Tsuki: I kinda figured it out myself that you're a boy... your first message to me was normally for boys.
Taiyoukai of the West: I see. See you then.
Mikazuki Tsuki: Bye!
::: Mikazuki Tsuki just logged out :::
=D
Sesshoumaru looked at his wristwatch, it's already 6:00 p.m. and he hasn't finished his homework. A loud knock banged on his bedroom door.
"Yo Sesshoumaru! Come on down for dinner!" Inuyasha yelled at the other side of the door. He waited for a grunt in respond before walking back down the stairs.
"Guess I won't be having much sleep for today." He muttered under his breath and stood up.
=D Higurashi Shrine =D
Kagome yawned sleepily and stretched up her arms above her head, her back slightly stiff.
"Owww..." She moaned out as she stretched out more. "Taiyoukai of the West... Mikazuki Tsuki..." She murmured with a small smile. Her cellular phone vibrated beside her, almost scaring the shit out of her.
(Reminder: # bla...bla...bla... # = Kagome's text, # bla...bla...bla... # = Sesshoumaru's text)
% Hello Kag. I'm sorry for the late reply. Been busy =) %
# Oh that's okay! What r u doin? #
% Eating. U? %
# Lying on my bed, am I disturbing your meal? #
% No. So anything special for tomorrow that you won't mind telling mw? %
# Don't know... hey I got an idea! #
% What? %
# How about we tell a clue about ourselves everyday? #
% Sounds good to me. Why? %
# Oh nothing, just popped out of my silly mind. So u don't mind? #
% It's okay for me. I'm sorry but my brother is pestering me here. Can we text tomorrow? %
# Not before you give a clue about yourself! #
% Fine, I have an annoying brother. %
# It's not fair! U should say something about you! But I think it's okay. I also have a brother. His name is Souta. #
% Oh I see, well then Kag, Txt u tomorrow. %
# Bye! Nyt nyt! #
% Gud nyt to u too. %
"He's such a nice guy..." she whispered dreamily, "I wonder what he looks like... I hope he's as handsome as Sesshoumaru." She giggled at her own fantasy. She suddenly caught sight of a wrapped package on her table, she curiously crept towards it.
"Hmmm... I didn't notice this... Maybe mom brought it earlier." She tore the wrapper off and lightly fingered the hard cover of the book.
"Make a wish yourself." She read aloud, she opened the book and immediately pours all of her attention to the open article in front of her.
"Now this is interesting." She whispered and read the article on the back of her mind.
[Create a bracelet, necklace, anklet or whatever you like to be your accessory made out of beads, be careful. Before you wear it around your body, make a wish first. Tie it around the part of your body that you want it to be and never take it out. The only time you can remove it is the day your wish is granted. If it is removed purposely or accidentally, your wish will not be granted. Try it.]
"Nice." She smiled and quickly rummaged through her closet.
"I know I have some unused beads around here..." she told herself as she search each boxes with one hand and disappointedly place it back where she got it.
"Aha!" She cried happily, placing the box on top of her table. She opened it and smiled to herself.
"I knew this would have some use in the future." She got out several kinds and colors of beads; she searched inside her drawer and found long strands of nylons.
"I'll make one for myself and Sesshoumaru." She sang happily and began to do create some patterns.
"But what color for boys?" she asked herself, "Might as well ask Sess."
# Sorry to interrupt Sess. Got something to ask you. What color do guys like? #
% Maybe black and white, but for me I like dark blue and silver. %
# Got it. Tnx! #
% No sweat. %
"Black and white... I don't like black, so I'll follow Sess' taste. Blue and silver then!" she whispered happily and enthusiastically continues to her work. But still has some difficulties on inserting the nylon inside the beads.
"Damn you Yura." She silently cursed under her breath.
=D
So how was it? Okay or bad? And does anybody have some difficulties on reading txt words? If yes I'll post some in here.
Doin = doing
Tnx = thanks
Gud = good
Nyt = night
R = are
U = you
Did I forget something that you don't understand? And oh yeah, I need to be clear about the "Lord S"
Instead of Sesshoumaru being the Taiyoukai of the Western Lands, I made it as "Lord S", so Kagome would not know who her chat mate is! And Mikazuki Tsuki means Crescent moon.
