Disclaimer: I don't own Inuyasha or anyone else from the story. They belong to Rumiko. I'm
working on the OOCness, I really am. And I'm sorry for my rudeness in the past, I apologize
to anyone I may have upset. But on with the chapter. Oh, and since I got so many reviews
saying to use my song, I'm going to use it. Which is so making me panic here...-.-'
Especially considering I wrote it on a whim, and I actually own it.

Miroku was pacing in the area that the club's manager had given them as a back stage type
room. Inuyasha watched as he walked across the room as one might watch a tennis ball bouncing
across the court. Shippo, who would be playing the bass guitar finally rolled his eyes going
over to his younger brother and grabbed his shoulders. Sango came in then, her grin wide as
she walked over to Inuyasha sitting beside him on the short couch that had been put into the
room.
"She's here. And looking great. Oh, and Inuyasha?" asked Sango turning her head to her
boyfriend and he turned his head to look at her as his arm went around her.
"Yes, Sango?" he asked, Sango's grin turned false then.
"You owe me big for wearing a mini skirt. AND a halter top." she said motioning to the
blood red halter top and black mini she wore.
"Yes, Sango." he said and she laughed.
"Can you say anything other than 'Yes, Sango?'"
"Yes, Sango." said Inuyasha and Sango laughed even harder.
"Miroku, calm down. You worked hard on that song. She'll love you even more. And besides,
we're going to be right there with you." said Shippo while shaking his brother slightly.
"But what if she doesn't believe me? What if she leaves the club when she sees that it's
me that's singing? What if-" started Miroku but Sango cut him off.
"And what if the beam above the microphone you'll be singing into suddenly falls and crushes
you?"
"Yea, what if that happens? HEY! Don't make fun of me. My fears are legitimate." said
Miroku and Sango laughed.
"Relax, she'll believe you. She has to. Because she can't leave, her mom made it so that
Kagome wouldn't dare walk home, not in those shoes anyways."
"What shoes?" asked Inuyasha and Sango grinned.
"Spiked heels. Also known as, stiletto heels. No way in hell will she want to walk home.
Nor in that dress. Causes way too much attention to be directed to her curves."
"What?! You mean you left Kagome out there in a great looking dress to be getting ogled at
by men?! Sango!" Miroku growled panicking that Kagome may find someone new to go out with.
Miroku had no idea how wrong he was.
~*~
Kagome had been sitting at the table nearest the stage where the equipment sat waiting to be
used. When a few guys had gone up and sat at her table to shamelessly flirt with her she
felt her eyebrow start twitching. After having told them no and to go away for five minutes
she stood up with her coke in hand, only to pour it on the nearest guys head.
"I said go away. And I meant go away. Not continue to bug me! Why don't you just go away
now?!" she growled, her cerulean eyes flashing as the guys walked away, one grumbling about
how she ruined his clothes, and his two companions were laughing at him.
Kagome grabbed some napkins from the counter where a drink tender stood holding a towel out
to her. Saying her thanks she took the towel and wiped up the coke mess from her table before
she returned the now dirty cloth to the tender. Walking back over to her table she sat down
just as Kirara sat down beside her.
"Hey, Kagome." said the blonde-auburn striped haired girl.
"Oh, hey Kirara. What are you doing here?"
"Well, I heard about this club, and came to check it out. And then saw you walking over here.
Thought I'd give you some company." she said and Kagome nodded while doing a quick glance
around the area.
"Sango's around here somewhere. She's the reason I'm here. Her and my mother plotted against
me and dragged me here only for my mom to abandon me here and then Sango followed suit." said
the raven haired girl and Kirara nodded.
"Well, you got me. There's supposed to be a great band playing here tonight. Sango should
be showing up soon."
"Yea..." said Kagome while crossing her right leg over her left one, her foot moving
impatiently to the sound of the blaring music the club was playing.
Kagome looked over at the auburn-eyed girl sitting beside her. On the woman's tall slender
form was a baby blue spaghetti strap dress. The way the dress was was that it went down to
her midthigh, but the fabric -after the straps of course- started just above her breasts.
Her natural blonde-auburn striped hair was curled down her back to cover the fact that the
dress was backless. On her feet were a pair of baby blue stiletto heels. Covering her face
was hardly any make up, a bit of foundation, blush, powder blue eyeshadow, and light pink
lipstick.
Suddenly the music that was pumping loudly from the speakers all around the club stopped. The
two women looked up as a male voice came over the speakers announcing a band called "Feudal
Members." The two women looked up at the stage as the band members took up the stage.
"Oh...My...Kami." Kagome murmured when she saw Miroku sheepishly stand before her on the
stage.
"Sorry." Kirara said when Kagome glared at her, only to turn her eyes up to Shippo who was
starting to play at the same time as Sango who was playing the drums, the shorts under her
miniskirt the only thing keeping from flashing the audience.
Kagome looked up to see Miroku staring straight at her with pain in his eyes, but adortion
at how beautiful it was that she looked. Turning her head to the side she jumped when she
heard Miroku start humming the tune to the song that was playing. Looking back up to him
she saw him close his eyes as he pulled the microphone close to his mouth.
"I didn't mean for it to happen...
I never wanted it to...
But she had her own plans...
And then you walked in...
Thinking it was all me...
But I got something to ask of you..." Miroku sang and Kagome's eyes widened when she realized
what he was singing of.
Inuyasha looked back at Sango on the drums, her eyes were smiling as she looked at him, her
hands moving to play her drums purely from memory. Inuyasha's eyes then moved back to his
electric guitar that way he didn't mess up in the chorus of the song. Miroku turned his head
to the side slightly, seeing as Shippo looked back to his bass to keep playing the right
notes.
"What do you need...
For me to do?
Leave you alone?
Call you on the phone?
Climb a mountain, just for you?
Jump off a bridge?
But what do you need...
For me to do?" Miroku sang and Kagome chewed on the inside of her bottom lip.
'He wrote this for me...Oh Kami.' she thought watching as Sango's drum solo came up, her
hands moving fast as she beat out a rhythm on her drum set.
"She definitely loves that drum set." muttered Kirara as her cousin slowed her solo so that
the others could join her in playing once more just as Miroku opened his mouth to start
singing.
"Oh, come on, girl...
Don't leave that...
That boy hanging there...
He's been trying to...
Say sorry, to say how...
How much he...
Loves you...
He's asking you..." sang Inuyasha, giving Kagome a look that clearly said, 'I'm sorry, but
so is he, so Kami damnit forgive him!'
"How long have they been working on this?" Kagome asked Kirara and the girl grinned.
"Miroku wrote this song right after you made him hurt his broken ribs even more. But he was
never going to use it but then Inuyasha came up with the idea to use it and some other songs
to apologize to you. Even though, I know for a fact he didn't do anything."
"I know he didn't...But...I just can't seem to forgive anything."
"Whatever. You're loss."
"What do you need...
For him to do?
Leave you alone?
Call you on the phone?
Give you the moon?
Jump off a bridge?
What do you need...
For him to do?" sang Inuyasha, moving back to where he was standing after singing into
Miroku's microphone.
Shippo grinned over at Inuyasha as the two started 'jamming' on their guitars. Miroku had
made it so that the two had a duet on their stringed instruments before Sango was to sing.
After the men had finished their duet Sango did a quick drum solo once more.
Sango looked over to the audience, her eyes landing on Kagome. Cringing slightly she smiled
sheepishly at the girl to watch as she did a gentle beat on her drums as she leaned towards
her microphone. Looking over at Inuyasha's back Sango took a deep breath and started to sing.
"Listen to those two...
Because he loves you...
Whoa, girl, he loves you...
I've seen how he looks at you...
With stars in his eyes...
Listen to me, sister,
He loves you...
So-" sang Sango, her head moving to the beat that she tapped out with her drums.
Kagome looked up at Miroku with wide eyes. Chewing on her bottom lip she saw him glance at
her before closing his eyes, his face filled with pain. When the raven haired girl felt
Kirara nudge her with her foot under the table she looked back up at Miroku from where
she had turned her head. She had looked just in time to see a single tear fall down from
Miroku's eye.
'Miroku...I think I'm the one that needs to apologize. You are making me feel like such a
bitch. I know it wasn't your fault, I just, don't know why I can't seem to get over the
fact that it happened. She kissed you, and you didn't do anything.' thought Kagome, her
eyes watering as she watched Miroku turn his head to Sango, watching as she sang her version
of the chorus.
"What do you need...
For him to do?
Leave you alone?
Call you on the phone?
Hand over the world?
Jump off a bridge?
What do you need...
For him to do?" sang Sango, her hands moving faster as she finished singing, pulling away from
the microphone that was positioned by her.
Miroku glanced at Shippo, who was staring at Kirara. Turning his head back to Kagome he stared
at the woman as she seemed to be fighting tears. Licking his suddenly dry mouth he closed his
eyes slightly, picturing Kagome dancing with him at the dance, smiling. Her body moving
against his as she laughed lightly. He slowly felt his heart breaking even more, that is
until he opened his eyes seeing her chewing on her bottom lip.
'Kagome, I hope you can forgive me. And yourself for waiting so long. If you still can't,
well, I'll understand. Afterall, I don't deserve a beautiful, intelligent, and faithful girl
like you.' thought Miroku while he moved the microphone back to his mouth to start singing
once more.
"I love you...
Oh girl,
I love you...
What do you...
Want me to do?!
Oh-" he sang, staring directly at Kagome while girls jostled around her to get closer to the
stage, and closer to him, smiling lightly when Kagome glared at one of the girls next to her.
Kagome looked about ready to kill. When one of the girls around her flung a crumbled up
napkin that she had written her number on with eyeliner at Miroku, Kagome felt her eye start
to twitch. Kirara saw this and took the chance to grab the girl, and tell her that if she
wants to continue to live, she best back off the guys in the band, they were all taken, by
three girls who would love to kick their butts.
"What do you need,
For me to do?
Leave you alone?
Call you on the phone?
Climb a mountain, just for you?" Miroku sang while Inuyasha and Sango moved towards their
microphones and they too sang their lines.
"Give you the moon?" sang Inuyasha, glancing back at Sango, who's eyes were starting to go
lower than his mid back.
"Hand over the world?" she sang, blushing when she was caught by Inuyasha's coy grin.
"What do you need...
For me (Him) to do?" all three sang, Miroku obviously saying me with Inuyasha and Sango singing
him.
Shippo took that as his cue to do his bass solo. His eyes were drilling on Kirara who was
busy glaring at a girl who was about to fling her own phone number at Shippo. Kirara then
grabbed the girl's arm and shook her head.
"I don't think so, miss witch. He's mine, and I have the ring to prove it." Kirara said as
she moved the engagement ring into her line of sight.
"When did he propose, Kirara?!" Kagome asked, grabbing another girl's arm and snatching the
phone number when she was about to fling it at Miroku.
"I'm so sorry, Kagome...
I love you...
What do you need,
For me to do?" Miroku sang, his and Kagome's eyes locking as she scrambled up to the stage.
"What I need for you to do, Miroku, is this." said the raven haired girl as she slid her arms
around his neck, and kissed him.
Miroku became blissfully lost in Kagome's taste as the other band members cheered. Inuyasha
pumped an arm into the air before going over to Sango and followed Miroku and Kagome's example
of love. Shippo grinned walking off the stage and over to the gaggle of girls that were
surrounding Kirara.
Kirara turned to Shippo when his arms wrapped around her waist. Smiling slightly she looked
up at the stage before she leaned her forehead against her fiancee's. After the two kissed
lightly, and the gang of girls walked away in disappointment, they pulled away and looked up
at the stage.
"'Bout time. They were so miserable without one another." Shippo said softly, pulling Kirara
closer to himself.
"I know. And having to act like I didn't know why Kagome was here, well, that just sucked."
Kirara said, her mouth covering Shippo's once more as they kissed.
