Ok. I'm gonna try and write a new chapter. And hopefully itll be cute.
---Chapter 14: Normal Lives---
Kagome jumped up and sat on the edge of her bed. She was home again and things seemed to be going okay. She didn't have to worry about a step dad anymore, and her mother didn't seem to mind too much that he was gone either. Course, Kagome couldn't remember what happened to him. (Inuyasha happened is what!) She shrugged it off. Didn't matter. She wasn't sad about the loss of Hojo either, after a lot of yelling on Sango's part, Kagome realized she didn't need him around anyway.
-RING!-
"Kagome, dear, do you mind answering the phone?"
-RING!-
"Ok Mom!"
-RING!-
Kagome lifted the telephone off the receiver in her bedroom, "Hello?"
"Kagome! How ya feeling?"
"Oh I'm just fine Sango"
"Great! Since it's Saturday, do you wanna hang out with the others today?"
"Sure! I'll be ready in thirty minutes"
"Sounds like a plan. We'll pick you up at 12:30 then!"
-CLICK-
Kagome sat the phone down and began raiding her closet for clothes.
-
-
-
------------TWENTY-SEVEN MINUTES AND FIVE OUTFITS LATER------------
-
-
-
"Ah, perfect!" Kagome was now wearing a jean skirt about the length of the uniform skirt she has in the TV show and Manga, and a green spagetti strap shirt with a woodsy brown jacket/sweater, and she was ready to go!
She hopped down the stairs cheerfully, "Mom, I'll be out with Sango and the others today, is that alright?"
Masaki, what I believe I named the mom, entered the hallway from the kitchen drying her hands, "Certainly. Just don't be out past midnight, it going to rain and I'd hate for you to catch a cold."
The door bell rang just then.
"Yes Mom. I'll see you at midnight then!"
Opening the door, she was greeted by Sango, Miroku, Ayame, Koga, and naturally, Inuyasha. And as much as I love them all, I will not go into detail on their clothing. The six friends, despite Koga's and Inuyasha's bickering, began treading down the sidewalk happily, rejoicing at how nice it was to be teenagers again, after the past few weeks of torture. They decided to go to the mall and eat, seeing it had everyone's favorite picks, and promised to meet up at the JCPenny entrance at 3.(long time to eat...maybe they can shop too). And, since I the authoress have a fairy-tale like for stories, everyone broke up into pairs, according to interests in food. So, the 'couples' then set out to find a good meal.

-----------------------(With K and I)-----------------------

"How about Chick-fil-a?" Kagome began suggesting while walking down the east wing of the mall. Inuyasha shrugged, "Sure"
They ordered their meal and sat down to eat, "So...Inuyasha..."
"Huh?"
"What did you mean when you said 'same here' the other day?"
"Uh...Well..." He looked down at his french fries trying his best to hide a small blush threatening to taint his cheeks.
She tilted her head to the side in an innocent attempt to get him to answer, "Inuyasha?"
"Well...it's just...you said you..."
"I said what?"
'Doesn't she remember what she said? She said she loved me! How can she not get it? I'm not good with words!' Inuyasha battled himself to find a way to tell her, but to no lucky avail. He opened his mouth and closed it several times before dropping his head in shame, "You said you lo-"
Kagome finally caught on. She did not have a chance to hide any blush as it attacked her too quickly, "W-what about it?"
"Don't you...understand?"
"Well not exactly"
"I feel the same way Kagome!"
"You...do?"
"Yes!"
"Oh...I...wow..." Kagome rested her head on her palms and stared blankly downwards into their meals. Great. Just great. She finally gets some alone time with Inuyasha and she can't think straight. Come on girl, you gotta have some idea on what to say...She sighed in slight fustration.
Kagome looked up at Inuyasha, hoping he'd just understand she didn't know what else to say. She guessed he understood, seeing he quickly changed the subject, "So, when do you think Miroku and Sango will, you know, get together?"
The two both relaxed, "Oh I'm praying soon. I mean, it's obvious the two like each other, but despite Miroku's attempts, he's never actually told her anything."
-
-
-
-----------------------(With S and M)-----------------------
-
-

"Miroku!"
"What is it?"
"I LOVE THAT T-SHIRT! Please buy it for me! I don't have enough cash on me!"
"Which one?"
"That one! That one right there!"
She pointed to a deep crimson shirt hanging on the wall with the words 'Slayer Goddess' on the front in bright white letters. Miroku shook his head but agreed to buy her the shirt. It wasn't too expensive anyway. Sango just didn't bring any money.
They continued shopping, while eating sandwiches on the way. They actually got along pretty well considering the normal atmosphere of the two. Occasionally though, Miroku would make a comment on either her or some random girl that would get him a good smack on the back of the head.
After about an hour, they stopped in a magazine store and began reading up on a few things in a comfortable silence. That is...until Sango noticed what Miroku was reading. She then ripped the magazine away and handed him an anime one instead. He didn't complain too much, afterall, there were still some revealing pictures of even cartoon women he found amusing. She didn't notice it this time, lucky for him too, or he would've gotten a very painful clobbering that he just was not prepared for!
"Hey Miroku?"
"Yes Sango?"
"Why do you flirt with so many girls all the time?"
"Well-"...'To make you jealous...' He thought and shook his head. Was she jealous at all? Who knows, but now was a good as time as any to tell her, "To be honest Sango?"
"Yes, honest please"
He took one of her hands in his, "The honest truth is...I do it to...make you, well, see if you ever get jealous I guess."
"Why would you want to see me jealous?" Her tone had some anger tinting it, but the dominant feeling was simply curiousity and fear.
He sighed, "Because I want you to care about me...the way I care about you"
Her eyes widened, was he for real? From the look in his eyes, yes, he meant every word, but...being Sango, she doubted ever being loved by anyone. She blinked a couple times, making sure she wasn't dreaming, and making sure it was really her he was speaking to. Inhaling sharply, a smile slowly formed on her lips, "I do care about you"
"As much as I care about you?"
"Maybe even more, Miroku"
They shared a moment before releasing each other's hand and sharing a moment of silence together. With that said and done, they continued on they way through the mall.

To the last lovely couple, Ayame and Koga.
Ayame skipped lightly past people in the mall, they had finished eating, and were now looking for little shops to buy stuff at. Well, for KOGA to buy anyway.
They came across a jewelry store and Ayame wandered in, gazing at everything. She pointed out one particular necklace she'd die for. But she did not ask him to buy it for her. She said she rather not make him buy anything expensive today because of her. It was afterall his money.
"So, Ayame, what about this instead then?" He lifted a bracelet, slightly similiar to the necklace, and it also came with earrings. It was on sale, so it only costed ten dollars. (Hey I've bought good quality cheap jewelry ok? TRY CLAIRES! lol)
"Well...I guess, I mean, if you really want to"
"Sure"
They purchased the stuff and Ayame put it all on. She smiled up at Koga who began blushing, "Koga, you know, you're pretty cute when you blush" (Who cares if Ayames a little forward? Someones gotta be!)
"Ya...really think so?"
Giggle. "Yup" Another giggle. Koga adored her child-like cuteness. A couple years ago, he thought of going after Kagome, but the minute Ayame stepped through those doors, he only had eyes for her. She was cute, funny, and always entertaining.
"I could say the same to you"
"Aw, Koga. That's sweet of you to say!" She hopped up and pecked his cheek lightly before giggling again and continuing on her merry way.

-----------------------(At the front of the Mall)-----------------------

"Hey there everyone!" Kagome waved as the other four approached.
It was now 3 p.m. and they still had plenty of time to have fun, so they all went to Inuyasha's house, since it's the biggest, to watch movies and just have some fun.
