oh and to kouga jr. for proving me wrong about the authors of my favourite stories not reading my stories. for this i shall shamelessly pimp When We Were Little. this is one of my favourite favourites. its a great K/A story and EVERYONE should read it.
speaking of which, i finally saw Kouga or well heard him seeing as ive seen pictures of him many times. i must admit he sounded different that i would have thought but im already getting use to it... like i got use to the guy playing lupin lookng like a french hitler... lol except it wasnt as big a deal. lol!
ok ok! ENOUGH ALREADY! get on with the freaking story! kk here it is!
Kouga approached the old private basketball court he and his two best friends had discovered years back, when they were in grade 9. It was Saturday afternoon, around 2-ish, the usual time he and Inuyasha would play a game of one on one while Miroku made sure they didn't kill each other. He could see his friends through the fence as he drew near to the old court.
"It's about damn time you got here wimpy wolf! Lets get this started!" Inuyasha called from mid court as Kouga walked through the gate. Inuyasha was wearing a loose, red muscle shirt and black sport shorts with a red stripe up the side.
Kouga narrowed his eyes at Inuyasha. "Don't wet yourself there, mutt boy." Kouga retorted as he put his bag down beside Miroku, who was sitting down on a picnic table at the edge of the court, and pulled out his basketball shoes. Kouga was wearing a black muscle shirt like Inuyashas and brown zip off shorts. He slipped off his old rugged running shoes and replaced them with his other shoes.
"So how did it go?" Miroku asked as Kouga did up his laces.
"How did what go?" Kouga asked not looking up.
"Your night with our fair maiden, or should I say maid?" Miroku raised his eyebrows suggestively.
"Oh that," Kouga stood up and straightened his shirt. "It went fine." He walked towards Inuyasha in the centre of the basketball court. They began to play vigorously.
"What the monks trying to say is did you get any?" Inuyasha said as he shot the ball and got it in.
Kouga grabbed the ball as it bounced under the net. "Nah, this girls different than my usual, I told you that the other night." He pointed out, swiftly faking to the left and running past Inuyasha on the right and bouncing the ball off the backboard and into the net. "She got far to much self-respect for that on the first date."
"Then why the hell are you dating the wench? It's just a waste of your time, you know it ain't gonna last, why bother?" Inuyasha asked taking possession of the ball and trying to get around Kouga but failing miserably resulting in Kouga scoring another point.
"In case you've forgotten, my dad wants to see a 'respectable girl' with me for a change. You know what he'd do if he saw me with another bimbo. Besides, I like a challenge." Kouga said with a crooked smile.
The boys continued to play for the next hour before taking a breather. Kouga looked down at his watch. It was 3:06. "Shit, I gotta go. Dad wants to talk to me about something or other. See you guys later." He said grabbing his bag and gave his friend they're little handshake/high five. He walked off the court and out to the street.
He walked through the busy New York sidewalks toward Ookami Inc. headquarters a few blocks away. He was almost there when he saw her. She was coming out of a store a little ways ahead of him. Her flaming red hair in a low ponytail, her back to him. He was almost up to her when she turned around. Her deep brown eye looked at him for a moment then she turned away. 'Damn, what's wrong with me?' He asked himself, 'seeing a red head and instantly thinking its Ayame... what the hell? First I'm jealous of guys I don't even know and now I'm seeing her every where?' He shook his head and continued walking.
"Mr. Ookami, your son is here to see you." The secretary's voice came through the intercom into the Mr. Ookami's office.
The older man had short black hair with many grey and white hairs. He had the same icy blue eyes as his son and was the same height. He would be considered good looking if it weren't for the fact he was 52-years-old. Kouga obviously got his looks from his father. The man pressed the intercom. "Send him in please, Kikyo." A few seconds after removing his had from the communication device, The door to Mr. Ookami's office opened and Kouga entered.
"Hey dad." Kouga said flopping down onto a black leather couch at the side of the office.
"Good afternoon Kouga," Mr. Ookami said sitting down in his desk chair and taking in his sons sweaty appearance with disgust. "You could have showered before you came."
"If I did, I would have been late and I know how much you hate tardiness." Kouga said nonchalantly. "So, what do you want?"
"As you know, we just bought out a large company in town." The elder Ookami started.
"Yeah so? What does that have to do with me?" Kouga interrupted.
"We are holding a gala ball in honour of the 'merger' next Saturday and as the heir to this company I expect you to come. You may invite Inuyasha and Miroku if you wish, and each of you should bring a date." Mr. Ookami explained to his son.
"Will do." Kouga said. "Is that all?"
"Yes." Kouga nodded and got up to leave. "Oh and Kouga." Kouga stopped and looked back at his father. "Your date better be not be your usual."
"Don't worry dad, I've already got that covered." Kouga said with a reassuring grin. With that he walked out of the office and headed back to the hotel.
Kagome, Sango and Ayame walked through Central Park, arms linked and laughing. They were having a girls day. They hadn't had one in weeks. Sure they would hang out and see each other at work but they hadn't just dropped everything they had planned and spent the day together. One perk of being friend with the manager of their department was being able to get days off to hang out with said manager. So as soon as Kagome had merely suggested that they have this girls day, Sango booked the day off for all three of them.
They really didn't know what they were laughing about, they just were. Maybe it was over the group of teenage boys who were trying to get their attention. Or possibly the little girl who was learning how to walk. Whatever it was, they were giggly about it. They were just having a great day. Currently they were heading to a small cafe with a patio that had faced the famous park. They had discovered Kiki's (the cafe) when they were in grade 7. Since then they had become regulars, the owner and most of the staff knew them by name and were very friendly. They even got a small discount.
"Well, well, well, if it isn't Ayame, Sango and Kagome." Kiki, the owner of the cafe, said. She was tall with chestnut coloured long hair, which she always wore down. She had gentle baby blue eyes and a warm, welcoming smile. She walked over to the three girls and gave each a bear hug. "It's been so long since you were last here! I thought I had lost my three biggest customers."
"Don't worry Kiki," Ayame said breaking free from the brunettes' hug. "We'd never abandon this cafe!"
"Good." Kiki said with her pleasant smile. "The usual I presume." The three faithful customers nodded in unison. "Okie dokie, I know where to find you!" Kiki turned away from the girls and went to make their usual orders.
The three of them headed out to the patio to their favourite summer time table. Kiki delivered their drinks and Kagome's cinnamon bun only a few seconds after they sat down. After a few seconds of silence between the friend, they burst into conversation about their afternoon plans.
"Shopping or a movie first?" Sango asked, sipping her cappuccino with extra whip cream.
"I'd say movie," Ayame said thoughtfully. "If we go shopping first then we'd have to bring our bags into the theatre with us."
Kagome nodded, her mouth was too full of cinnamon bun to form words. "Movie it is than." Sango said happily, continuing to sip her drink.
"What movie?" Ayame asked, finally beginning to drink her hot chocolate. She didn't care if it was a hot summer day. She hated coffee and cappuccinos, and who could say no to a hot chocolate?
"Hmm... Any good new chick flicks out?" Sango asked.
"Princess Diaries 2 just came out," Kagome piped in now that her bun was gone. Sango and Ayame looked at one another and nodded.
"Sounds good," Ayame said finishing her drink.
"Hey Kagome, isn't that the guy we hung out with at the club the other day?" Sango asked pointing at a silver haired boy that was walking down the sidewalk that went past the cafe patio.
"Oh yeah, he was Kouga's friend... Inuyasha right?" Ayame said seeing who Sango was talking about.
"Yup, that's him," Kagome said. Ayame nudged her friend, it was so obvious Kagome had a thing for the guy. "What?" Kagome asked innocently.
"Say hi!" Ayame whispered while Sango chuckled.
A small blush appeared on Kagome's cheeks. "What? Why? He's your boyfriends friend!"
"Oh come on Kags! You know you like him." Sango teased.
"Wha-!" Inuyasha was about to walk past them.
"Hey Inuyasha!" Ayame called mimicking Kagome's voice perfectly. Kagome went wide-eyed as a deep crimson blush spread over her cheeks.
Inuyasha looked towards the table he heard his name being called from. He spotted the three girls were sitting right beside him. He looked at them for a second, studying their faces till it finally clicked. "Oh hey Kagome, Sango, Ayame."
Kagome kicked Ayame under the table. "OW!" Sango burst into laughter.
"Did I miss something?" Inuyasha asked.
"No, no, nothing. Just my friend being childish." Kagome said trying to cover her blush. Kagome took in Inuyashas appearance and the basketball under his arm. "Were you playing basketball?"
"Huh? Oh yeah, me, Kouga and Miroku play every Saturday afternoon." Inuyasha said.
"Really?" The three girls asked in unison.
"Yeah. You should come watch us some time. We play at an old court a few blocks away."
"Sure! We'd love to!" Ayame said looking to her friends, who both nodded in agreement.
"Great. Look, I gotta get going, see ya around." Inuyasha said with a final wave before walking away.
"Bye," Kagome, Sango and Ayame sang, once again in unison.
"So, Kags? You interested or what?" Sango asked, poking her friends shoulder.
"I-I-Uh-" Kagome stuttered.
"Come on Kags!" Ayame teased, poking Kagome's other shoulder.
Kagome sighed at both her friends immaturity. "Fine whatever." Though it sounded like Kagome was just submitting to her friends constant teasing, she was actually very excited about the idea of getting together with Inuyasha. She had like him since they met at the club on Thursday night. Kagome was also sure that Sango had liked Miroku, even though she had complained about him being a pervert for the past two days. But the point is, she had been talking about the guy for the past two days even though they had only met once. A smile crept on to her face. "oh Sango..."
Ayame flopped down on her bed. It was nearly midnight. She was glad the day was over. She had had fun yes, but her feet were killing her. Sango had spent the whole afternoon complaining about how she did NOT like this Miroku guy, but even Ayame had to admit, it sounded like Sango was trying to convince herself of that. Kagome had gone all out and spent every penny she had brought with her on new clothes and shoes. Ayame had bought a few new tops and some pants. She had bought a few crisp and clean white female muscle shirts and a light blue hoodie that was about four sizes too big for her but very warm. The pants were tight fitting denim and were slightly flared. The movie was great, by the end they were all smiling and in love with the lead male actor. The usual for a chick flick.
Later, they had decided to go to V6. They met Inuyasha and Miroku there, but no Kouga. They basically stuck with them the whole night. Now Ayame was home and ready to sleep. She slowly got back up and changed into her light purple silky pjs and got into bed. She dreaded the thought of work the next day. A major downside to working at a hotel is that your only allowed on day off a week including the weekend. But you usually didn't get that day. But with work brought the slim possibility she would see Kouga. Ah the perks of being the managers best friend. With that happy thought in her head, Ayame drifted off into a dreamless sleep.
A/N: Alright its finito! im sorry it was short-ish. The next chapter may be a few more days. My computer should crossed fingers be working by wednesday.
hey had you ever noticed that people cross their fingers for luck and when they lie. isn't that weird?
ok enough random though bubbles! I really dont have anything to say. I know Inuyasha was OOC in that whole patio scene but well, he couldnt be a jerk to them not yet he doesn't know them plus he's putting the charm on Kagome so of course he's not going to be his jerkish self .... yet anyways. yeah so... uh... review!
(p.s. i need suggestions for things to happen. I know whats going to happen in the later chapters at the end of the story just not what going to happen to get there. and i just cant skip to that or else its gonna be so overly dramatic. so yeah, ideas are very welcome when you people review!)
anyways i would have updated yesterday but i found my self lacking ideas. but dont worry, i got my friend Charlotte to help out. so yeah this chapter is mostly here idea combined with my wackiness. then again we do share a brain so maybe its combined... i dont which third of the brain i have today. must be mine if im writing. afterall i have the creative side...ok yeah just ignore that.
