Chapter 2 Date

Kagome paced around her bedroom floor trying to figure out what to wear. Normally, she wouldn't have cared, but Sesshomaru had caught her in the hall and told her that they were going to a very nice restaurant. She didn't have anything that was nice. It was 7:30 and she was getting worried. Sesshomaru would be here in thirty minutes. She picked up the phone and quickly dialed Inuyasha's number. He picked up on the first ring.

"Hello?" he said.

"Hey, it's me." Kagome said, sounding worried.

"Hey Keg. What's wrong? You sound worried." Inuyasha said

"Oh, um. I don't know what to wear." Kagome said.

"Oh." Inuyasha said, sounding disappointed. "Well, how about that black dress your mom bought for you? You did say earlier that he was taking you somewhere nice."

"Yeah. Thanks. I forgot all about that. You're the best Inuyasha." Kagome said. She hung up the phone and headed to her closet. As soon as the phone it the receiver, she realized that she shouldn't have called him. First she turned down his date for another, then she rubbed it in his face by calling him.

"Great. Just what I need to mess up a wonderful friendship." She said

She quickly pulled on the long, plain black dress and headed downstairs.

Sesshomaru walked into the living room of his house to see his little brother watching tv.

"When are you going to get out from in front of the TV?" he asked.

His brother looked up at him with cold eyes. "Whenever you stop taking my dates." He said.

Sesshomaru rolled his eyes. "You've had years to ask her out." He replied.

He's brother turned back to the TV, ignoring him.

Sesshomaru sighed and opened the front door. He got in his car and started the engine. He sat there for five minutes thinking. I shouldn't have come to live with him. We're going to kill each other before the year is over. He thought. He put his car in gear and drove out of his driveway.

Sesshomaru reached Kagome's house five minutes till eight. He got out of his car and walked up to Kagome's door. He knocked three times. An older woman that looked a little like Kagome answered the door. Sesshomaru smiled at the women.

"Hey. I'm here to pick up Kagome." He said.

The women smiled and nodded. "Yes. You must be Sesshomaru." She said.

Sesshomaru nodded. "I'll get her for you." The woman said. She turned into the house and spoke. "Kagome. Sesshomaru's here." She said.

Kagome walked up to the door. "Thank you mother." She said. Then she looked up at Sesshomaru. He was wearing a suit. (Can you imagine? Sess in a suit!!!)

"H-hi." Sesshomaru stuttered.

"Kagome frowned. "Is something wrong?" She asked. A hint of anger was heard.

"No, no, no. It's just…..your so beautiful." Sesshomaru said.

The anger faded, and Kagome's frown was replaced by a smile. "You don't look bad your self." She said. She watched as Sesshomaru smiled. He held his hand out for her. She took it and let him lead her to the car. He opened the door for her and let her get in. Then he walked around the car and got in himself.

"So. Where are we going?" Kagome asked, as he started the car.

Sesshomaru backed the car up. "You'll just have to wait and see." He said, smiling.

Kagome rolled her eyes. "Ok. I'll wait." She said.

"So. What time do you have to be home?" Sesshomaru asked.

Kagome shrugged. "I don't know. Whenever I guess." She said.

Sesshomaru looked over at her as they drove down the road. "You didn't ask?" he said.

"Well no. Usually when Inuyasha and I hang I get back home around one. Mom never complains." Kagome said.

"One it is." Sesshomaru said. Then he replayed what Kagome had said in his head. "You and Inuyasha have dated?" he asked.

Kagome looked taken aback. She found he voice and finally spoke. "No. I mean, not really. He's my best friend. We just go places together. I could never think of him like that." She said. But as they rode in silence, he's exactly who she was thinking about.

Half an hour later they pulled up to a beach. The half moon was shining brightly over the ocean. All thoughts of Inuyasha were shattered when Kagome saw Sesshomaru in the moonlight. He was gorgeous. He had let his long silver hair down. It was almost as long as he was tall.

"Well. This is it." He said, looking at Kagome for approval. He frowned when she didn't speak. "Is something wrong?" he asked, concerned.

Kagome was speechless. Everything was so beautiful. She shook her head. "N-n-no. It's just that it's so beautiful." She whispered.

Sesshomaru smiled. "I knew you'd like it." He said. "Come on. Let me show you the diner." He held out his hand for her, which she took, and led her to the diner.

The diner was a huge open pier. The tables were for couples only. The only light was from the moon and the two candles on each table. Kagome was once again speechless as Sesshomaru led her over to an empty table. Kagome sat down and begin to look though the menu. Sesshomaru sat down across from her, yet he didn't pick his menu up. He looked at her with his golden eyes. Kagome noticed and put down her menu. She looked into his eyes.

"Is something wrong?" she asked?

Sesshomaru smiled. "No. Everything's perfect." He said. His smiled widened when she smiled back. "Ok. I want to know about the school and your friends." Sesshomaru said after they had ordered.

"Ok." Kagome said. They talked until they're food came. Then they kept talking in between bites. Sesshomaru was laughing about everything that Inuyasha had done in the past. Kagome thought it was strange that Sesshomaru found Inuyasha so funny. She shrugged it off and talked about Sango and Rin. Sesshomaru listened for awhile, before confusion flashed across his face.

"What's wrong?" Kagome asked.

Sesshomaru looked up at her and straight into her eyes. "You haven't told me about your other friend. What was his name?" He said.

Now it was Kagome's turn to be confused. She looked at Sesshomaru. "What other friend?" she asked. Then it hit her. "Kouga?" she said. Sesshomaru nodded. "Oh, no! Kouga and I are not friends." Kagome said.

"Why not? He seemed nice at school" Sesshomaru asked.

"Because. He's nothing but a sex craving man whore. The nice guy thing is just an act." Kagome said.

"Oh." Sesshomaru said, before placing the last piece of his food in his mouth. He paid the bill and quickly pulled Kagome out of the diner. She was laughing as they hit the beach.

"Why are you in a hurry?" she asked.

Sesshomaru looked at her. "Because I wanted to get you in the moonlight." He said, moving closer. Kagome smiled.

"What's so great about me in the moonlight?" She asked.

Sesshomaru wrapped his arm around Kagome's waist and pulled her up against his chest. "Because your gorgeous in it." He said. Kagome looked away, blushing. Sesshomaru caught her chin in his hand and lifted her face to meet him. "Don't turn from me. I want to see you." He said.

Kagome looked into his eyes. He leaned down….his lips just inches away from his.

Do I really want to do this? She asked herself. Yes. She said. He was so close. Suddenly…..

"Kagome!" A voice rang out.
