A/N When I said I was going to try and get these turned out before schools tarted, what I really meant was I was going to try and get these turned out before my hair turns white! I'm late, I'm late, I'm late! I know! Don't hate me because I procrastinate! Everyone already does! And it's still winding down folks. Second last chapter! Da da dun! Enjoy.
SIT ME BABY ONE MORE TIME
Inuyasha watched with a blank face as Kagome stormed out fo the bar. Not a trace of his emotions flickered across his face as the door swung shut behind Kagome. He pushed himself up from the ground, resting on his knees as if he didn't even have the strength to finish getting up. Puzzlement clear in his eyes.
"Well," Kikyo said. She wrapped an arm around Inuyasha's waist. "Now we can be together!"
Inuyasha let out a faint, unhappy canine whimper.
"Why'd she go?" Inuyasha demanded.
"You were being really mean to her!" Sango pointed out like it should be obvious.
"Yeah but I'm always like that!" Inuyasha protested. "That's nothing new! And why does she go back to her own time anyway? What's so great there?"
"It is where her family is," Miroku pointed out sagely. "And you were a jerk!"
"I'm always a jerk when Kikyo is around!" Inuyasha snapped. "Clay brings out the worst in me!"
"Hey!" Kikyo glared at Inuyasha, affronted by his callous statement.
"That is true," Miroku agreed, rubbing his chin thoughtfully. "You do seem to be at your worst when lady Kikyo is around."
"Yeah," Sango agreed nodding. "It's weird, it's like she's got a negative effect on you!"
"It must be because she's his old girlfriend!" Shippou said with great authority. "After all! Inuyasha really likes Kagome and I know he's all confused about his feelings for her!"
Much to the shock of his friends, instead of beating the foxling, Inuyasha could only nod, looking mournfully at the door where kagome had exited.
He sighed heavily.
"I don't even mind it when she sits me anymore!" he admitted under his breath to his friends. "It's kind of like saying 'I like you,' now."
Sango Miroku and Shippou shared a look, greatly disturbed by this news. They had not yet received the memo that causing someone to slam to the ground with enough force to fracture bones and leave creators was a sign of affection. Kikyo, who thought it was acceptable to ask her crush to come and twist with her in eternal torment in the fiery pits of hell with her, nodded thoughtfully.
Hesitantly Miroku ventured a suggestion.
"Maybe you should tell lady kagome how you feel," Miroku suggested gently, taking a step back so he wasn't within arm range is Inuyasha didn't like that idea.
"Yeah!" Inuyasha said nodding. "I mean kagome's pretty okay most of the time ain't she? I'm sure she'll understand!"
Inuyasha jumped off the ground and marched purposely towards the door.
"I'll make her understand!" he declared, punching a fist into his hand. "She'll have tog et it if I nail the well shut!"
Miroku moaned and put his face in his hands. Sango patted his shoulder comfortingly.
"Don't you think that's a little extreme Inuyasha?" Shippou demanded, jumping in front of the determined dog demon. "I mean I'm a little kid and I know that's not the way to tell kagome how you feel!"
"Oh and how should I do that?" Inuyasha scoffed, picking Shippou up by the tail.
"Well clearly you've got to tell her with song!" Shippou replied like it was the most obvious answer in the world.
"Oh yeah," Inuyasha nodded. "I already explained being in love with Kagome and Kikyo in a song and how I can't fight... maybe Kagome will understand better if I sing again!"
He dropped Shippou to the ground and strode over him on his way to the stage. He found the appropriate song and began to sing. The soft mellow strains of his melodious voice made Kagome, down the road, pause in her hasty retreat.
Oh Ka-gome
How was I supposed to know
That something wasn't right here
Oh Ka-gome
Why do you always go
When something just ain't right, yeah
Tell me how you want it to be
Tell me baby 'cause a demon needs to know now, oh because
This guessing game is killing me
I must confess I'm a bit naive
Kikyo and you, I'm in a bind
Give me a sign
Sit me baby one more time
Oh Ka-gome
The reason I fight is you
Do you need to be reminded
Oh pretty baby
When we first met I tried to kill you
I'm glad that didn't happen
So show me how you want it to be
Tell me baby 'cause a demon needs to know now, oh because
This guessing game is killing me
I must confess I'm a bit naive
Kikyo and you, I'm in a bind
Give me a sign
Sit me baby one more time
Oh Ka-gome, what am I supposed to know?
Oh pretty baby, I shouldn't have let you go
I must confess, that my thickheadedness is killing me now
Don't you know I'm still naive?
Kagome pleas stay here
In feudal times!
Sit me baby one more time
This guessing game is killing me
I must confess I'm a bit naive
Kikyo and you, I'm in a bind
Give me a sign
Sit me baby one more time
Inuyasha looked around the bar and sighed. His ears dropping sadly he jumped off the stage.
"I guess it wasn't enough," Inuyasha sighed, trudging towards his friends. "I mean, maybe I should have nailed the well shut, dragged her here, tied her to a chair and then sung to her! Then she'd understand!"
"Maybe," Miroku nodded.
Kikyo had to sniff, back a tear upon hearing this. 'He never dragged me places and tied me to chairs!' she thought mournfully. 'Inuyasha really does love her more then he loved me!'
The door flew open to the bar, and there stood Kagome, a strange light in her narrowed eyes.
"Inuyasha!" she barked, marching towards him. "Sit boy!"
Inuyasha's face transformed into a look of pure elation and joy right before he was slammed painfully into the ground. Just to make sure Inuyasha understood just how much she truly cared for him kagome proved her undying love to him the only way she knew how!
"Sit boy!"
Thud!
"Sit boy!"
Thud.
"Sit boy!"
Thud.
"Sit boy!"
Thud.
'Wow,' Inuyasha thought. Woozy from pain and getting slammed into the floor. 'Kagome really does love me!'
