Chapter 3: Mall
The second that Kagome and Inuyasha walked into the mall Kagome's composure was gone, and she was worried that she had made a mistake. Kagome froze in the door; her hesitation didn't go unnoticed by Inuyasha. Who in turn became very nerves, he didn't the outlay of the mall and it now seemed that she no longer remembered.
"Your not a kitten, you're a hanyou, "whispered Inuyasha, "don't let the humans intimidate, you have just as much right to be here." Inuyasha rubbed his clawed hand gently under her chin since he could not rub her ears.
Kagome purred and leaned into his hand for a second before she pulled away, "Thanks Puppy."
Inuyasha growled; he wasn't a puppy! Inuyasha smirked, "No problem Kitten." He followed her through the mall to H&M (A/N: I don't know in Japan do they have H well it's a cheap store that I know they have in Europe and I believe a few select states in the USA (not in Maine))
Kagome headed directly to the section of purple clothes and searched out her dark purple. She quickly found her size and picked out a tank top much like her black one, and a long sleeve square neck shirt. She moved to the black and did the same finding a tank top and a ¾ shirt. Kagome was also happy to find a vintage style long black skirt. Kagome smiled it looked perfect for her tail.
The went to the men's section and Kagome turned to Inuyasha, "If you see something you want just ask, ok?"
"Keh," replied Inuyasha glancing around the department.
(A/N: Inuyasha-English translation: Ok. (sorry couldn't resist))
Kagome quickly picked out a pair of dark blue jeans and two pair of black, that were just like the ones that her and Inuyasha were wearing, "we'll share the pants, ok?"
Inuyasha just nodded, he was looking at a black shirt. Kagome came over to stand next to him and see what he was looking at, "Oh Inuyasha that is completely you, we'll buy it as well." The shirt in question was black and had written in sloppy white block letters 'Feh'. Kagome picked out his size shirt and then noticed the matching black baseball hat. She grabbed one of each as they headed to the cash register.
At the last second Inuyasha saw a dark purple cat ear hat and picked it up, "Hey Kagome look, you should get this it suits you well."
Kagome looked at the hat in Inuyasha's hands and began to laugh he was right. Kagome took the hat and threw it on their pile of clothes. They paid for their clothes with a hesitant moment about the money from Kagome as she tried to count the bills.
They left the store with three large bags and headed towards the food court. Kagome quickly ducked into an accessories shop and bought two more pairs of black gloves.
"What do you want for lunch?" Kagome asked.
"Ramen, "replied Inuyasha with a big smile.
Kagome laughed, "I'm sorry Puppy, you can't buy Ramen at the food court."
"Well what about Ramen World?" asked Inuyasha pointing to the newly open shop that was having a grand opening sale, buy one bowl of Ramen get the second free.
Kagome chuckled and rubbed the back of her head, as her cheeks got red with embarrassment and shock, "Well that's new." They walked to Ramen World and Inuyasha ordered a bowl of Ramen getting Kagome the free bowl. They got two cokes from the tap and took their seats. Inuyasha as normal devoured his Ramen without thought, Kagome was surprised that she in turn ate her Shrimp Ramen with the same speed.
Since they were both still hungry Kagome went back up and got two more bowls. Which they ate slower, just as Kagome was taking the last bite of her Ramen she noticed three people who she never wanted to see; Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka her three best friend from before she met Inuyasha, from before she was hanyou.
Kagome turned red and ducked down trying to cover her face with the rim of her hat. Inuyasha looked at her, not seeing what she was doing, "Kagome? Is something wrong?" Kagome waved her hands trying to shush Inuyasha, but it was to no avail.
"Kagome!" said Eri turning to see the side of the hiding Kagome.
Kagome took a deep breath and turned to her best friends, "Oh hi guys! I didn't see you there." Kagome tried to avoid their eyes but she knew the look they gave her, it was look of surprise and disgust.
"Umm... who is your friend Kagome?" asked Ayumi.
"Oh yeah sorry, Umm... Inuyasha these are my friend from school that I told you about Eri, Ayumi, and Yuka. You guys know that guy, well this is him Inuyasha," replied Kagome looking at the ground.
The three girls were shocked to say at the least. Yuka and Eri grabbed Kagome's arms and dragged her away. Ayumi turned to Inuyasha, "Nice to meet you Inuyasha, we need to speak with Kagome a minute alone." Ayumi turned around and went after her friends.
"Kagome what are you doing?" asked Eri.
"With him I thought you said he was a jerk!?" asked Ayumi.
"And dressed like a punk? I mean cat's eyes contacts, you filed your teeth sharp..." added Yuka.
Ayumi added, "Not to mention the boys pants and that ugly out of style hat!"
"You haven't been sick, have you?" asked Eri, "You've been skipping school!"
"I can't believe I mean just because he is hot it doesn't mean you should change who you are!" Yuka said almost in a yell.
"Kagome we are your friends you can tell us anything. But we must ask are you doing drugs?"
That was what finally broke Kagome, her friends believing she was doing drugs and being mean to her and Inuyasha, "What?! No I'm not doing drugs!" yelled Kagome. A few people stopped to look at them, but they were quickly on their way it was none of their business.
Inuyasha heard this and saw the fuming Kagome ready to pounce at another word. Inuyasha walked over to her and put a hand on her shoulder. Kagome jumped and turned towards Inuyasha, "Oh Puppy it's you."
"Come Kitten, I saw something I think you'll like at the theater it's called 'Finding Nemo' it's about fish," replied Inuyasha turning Kagome towards the theater. (A/N: I don't own Finding Nemo, and it was the first film I could think of I realize it is no longer in theaters.)
"Fish? Alright," Kagome replied walking back to the table to retrieve their bags and half drunken cokes, "Well I guess I'll see you around, though I doubt I'll be going back to school, I'm transferring."
"Ok see-ya Kagome," said the three girls in shock as they listened to Kagome and Inuyasha's conversation.
"You know I'm not a kitten," said Kagome.
"Well I'm not a Puppy, so if you stop calling me a Puppy I'll stop calling you a Kitten," replied Inuyasha with a smirk.
"Alright Inu."
"Sounds good Neko."
Kagome hissed, "Hey that's not fair, Inu is in your name!"
"And you act like a Neko, why don't you try forgetting about fish?" growled Inuyasha.
"Forget about fish!? I will if you forget about Ramen!"
"No, now I'll say it!" replied Inuyasha.
Kagome's eyes flashed in fear and her lips curved into a smile, "Than I'll say it!" They glared at each other in silence for the rest of the walk to the theater. They bought their tickets, a large bag of popcorn and a large coke to share. They walked into the theater and took their seats in the back of the theater. Surprisingly the theater was near bare, their was only three families with young kids their. Kagome was beginning to believe that the film might be a bomb. Since she spent most of her time in Sengoku Jidai she hadn't seen the film before.
Inuyasha figured that he wouldn't enjoy the film since he didn't care much for fish. As the film played out both Inuyasha and Kagome had proven their firsts thoughts wrong the film was great!
Before they walked out of the theater Kagome whispered to Inuyasha, "we should go home my ears and tail are aggravated." Inuyasha nodded as they left the theater and mall and began to walk back to the shrine.
Kagome and Inuyasha walked into the kitchen and found a note on the table, 'Kagome I saw that you came home and I figured you went out to see your friends. Souta is at a friends for the night and I had to go with grandpa to pick something up from your Aunt in Kyoto, we'll be back tomorrow. I figured that you had another fight with Inuyasha and when you were done with your friends, you could use some peace and quiet. Love, Mom.'
"Great now we have to wait till tomorrow, to tell them I'm hanyou!" yelled Kagome as she crumpled up the note and threw it across the room. Next Kagome took her hat off and threw that as well her ears twitched and she scratched them, "Ahh... that feels so much better! Come on Inuyasha lets get real clothes on!"
Inuyasha nodded as he took off his own hat and followed Kagome upstairs. Kagome picked up her school skirt since it was short and was comfortable for her tail. Kagome left Inuyasha in her room and went to the bathroom to change.
A few minutes later Kagome knocked on her door, "Can I come in?"
"Keh!' replied Inuyasha. The door slung open and Kagome bounded in tail flicking and claws flexing. She had left her black tank top on and it didn't look bad with her green skirt, Inuyasha was dressed as always. He laughed at his friend, who pounced on the bed and curled up to take a nap.
"Oh no you don't! You must stop this neko behavior!' laughed Inuyasha.
One of Kagome's green eyes opened and she stuck her tongue out at him; Inuyasha was about to attack Kagome when the doorbell rang. Kagome jumped and looked out her window to see Eri, Ayumi, Yuka, Hojo, and two other boys from school at her door.
"Shit!" Kagome said, "My friends are here! Umm... Inuyasha you have to go down, let them in, be nice to them especially Hojo, and tell them I'll be there in a minute, I have to change." Kagome threw on Inuyasha's new hat on his head and pushed him out her door.
Inuyasha growled, he knew Kagome didn't need this it was going to be hard enough to live a hanyou life in any time and now her friends are going to bug her! Inuyasha opened the door just as Yuka rang the bell again.
"Hello," said Inuyasha.
"Hello is Kagome home?" asked Ayumi.
"Yeah she'll be down in a minute, come in," replied Inuyasha gritting his teeth and calming his nerves as he stepped aside to let the six people in.
Inuyasha was semi relieved to hear Kagome yell from upstairs, "Inuyasha!"
Inuyasha laughed nervously, "I'll be right back." Inuyasha ran upstairs still not sure if it was a good or bad thing. Kagome was standing in her door waiting for him and she let him in before slamming shut the door. Kagome was wearing her new black skirt, the same shirt, the purple gloves, and her cat ear hat was in her hands.
Kagome looked nervously at Inuyasha, "Can you see my tail in this skirt?" Kagome spun slowly around to show Inuyasha.
"No I can't, Now get own there to your friends while I get dressed and I'll be down in a minute. Remember you're not just a neko you're a hanyou and have nothing to fear," Inuyasha replied rubbing her ears, Kagome purred.
"You know you've got to stop that you don't know how that feels!"
"I don't?" said Inuyasha raising an eyebrow.
Kagome reached up and removed Inuyasha's hat and rubbed his ears, "I do it like this, yes?" Inuyasha nodded. Kagome switched to a different way of rubbing ears, it made Inuyasha moan, "and this is how you rub my ears."
Kagome stopped and Inuyasha's eyes went wide, "Oh shit I know there was two ways to do it, I just didn't realize I was doing it the way that turned you on. I'm so sorry Kagome."
"Don't worry about, its just so you know what you were doing," Kagome laughed as she left the room and closed the door behind her. Kagome slowly and dreadfully waked down the stairs and into the living room where her friends, had already put a CD in the stereo and were waiting on the couch.
"Hey you guys," said Kagome and everyone turned to look at her.
Eri stepped forward, "We're sorry about earlier, so we decided to call Hojo and his friends Ouji, and Gouki, and throw you a going away party/you finally got well party."
"That wasn't necessary you guys," replied Kagome, as Inuyasha came up from behind her.
"Yeah it was," said Hojo, "You were sick like the whole year and now your switching schools it is the least we can do."
Kagome just nodded and let her friends take over the party. Kagome dreaded as they decided to start dancing. Kagome started to fret that her friends would push her and Hojo to dance and leave a pissed Inuyasha. Eri paused for a second looking from Hojo to Kagome before she asked him to dance.
"Come on Kagome, Inuyasha dance!" said Yuka.
Kagome turned towards Inuyasha, "Do you know how to dance? Did Kikyo ever teach you?" Inuyasha shook his head, "would you like to learn? We just have to do what they are doing."
Inuyasha looked at the other couples swaying to the slow melody, and gave Kagome a nod as he wrapped his arms around Kagome's waist. Kagome reached her arms around Kagome's neck and they began to dance. Inuyasha learned how to dance to all kinds of music.
He also learned games like Mafia and truth or dare. Inuyasha was dared to kiss Kagome which they both refused such lines as 'He's an inu," and "Yeah! She's a neko!' were heard by the confused bunch of teenagers. In the end Kagome had to give Inuyasha a ten second kiss, which was a funny scene for the bystanders who got to watch the two squirm, but still seem to enjoy their kiss, though neither would admit it.
Somewhere around 22:00 Kagome's friends left and once again Kagome and Inuyasha raced upstairs to change. Kagome reentered her room to find Inuyasha sitting on her bed, with his eyes closed. Kagome walked over to her bed quietly and curled up in his lap to sleep.
Inuyasha smirked, "Why do you do that?"
"It's comfortable," Kagome yawned and fell asleep.
Author's Note: I had to make the whole Ramen World thing, couldn't resist. You know what I believe should happen since you know with the film 'My Big Fat Greek Wedding' when you bought it on DVD you got a free thing of Windex. I think when you buy Inuyasha on DVD you should get a pack of Ramen. anyways I own hojo's friend but you can take them I don't even care for creation credit this time they were space fillers. I and I realize that the party was rather rushed sorry. Please tell me what you think. Thanks.
