"Inuyasha" His ears twitched when he heard his name being whispered. His eyes shot open to find Mrs.Higurashi standing in Kagome's doorway. "Come with me" she whispered again. He got up slowly, trying not to wake up Kagome. He followed her to her room and saw the necklace on her bed with some weird paper next to it. "What is that?" he asked, pointing to it. "It's called wrapping paper. We're going to wrap the necklace so on christmas day Kagome can unwrap it." Inuyasha was confused. "But why would you cover something only to have it ripped later?" Mrs.Higurashi motioned Inuyasha to sit with her on her bed. "So it can be a suprise." She picked up the roll of wrapping paper and measured how much she would need. Inuyasha went to wrapping paper she was holding out, but accidently cut it with his claws. "I'm so sorry. I didn't mean to." He was cut off. "It's okay. Thats how much i needed anyway. Now we just wrap the gift." So she wrapped the gift, with a little help from Inuyahsa. When they were done, Inuyasha went back to Kagome's room, only to find her not in it. He ran downstairs and she was cooking breakfast again. He sniffed and found they were having pancakes again.
When they were done, Inuyasha followed Kagome up to her room. He sat on her bed, as she practiced for the talent show. She was halfway through a song, when an idea came to her. She grinned and paused the cd. She turned and looked at Inuyasha. Inuyasha just started freaking out. "What did i do? Why are you staring at me like that?" "Inuyasha," she said, handing him a piece of paper, "read me these words." Kagome taught him to read a while back and so he read them but didn't know why he was reading them. "Now," Kagome said, "Sing them" she said, turning on the music. "WHAT???? You have to be kidding me. I've never sung in my life nor do i plan to at any time in the future!!" he said. "Fine, then," kagome said," Then your future will consist of you getting sat so far in the ground, you won't be back here till christmas, next year." Inuyasha's eyes widened. "Fine, just don't sit me please." he pleaded. Kagome smiled. She loved blackmail. "Because you are a good boy, only sing that part." she said, pointing to a part of the paper.
Jingle bell, jingle bell, jingle bell rock
Jingle bells swing and Jingle bells ring
Snowin and blowin up bushles of fun
Now the jingle hop has begun
Jingle bell, Jingle bell, Jingle bell rock
Jingle bell chime and Jingle bell time
Dancin and prancin in Jingle bell square
In the frosty air
Now it was Kagome's turn to be in shock. Inuyasha actually sounded really good. Inuyasha looked at her, "Look, i sang. Now your staring at me again." he said. Kagome woke from her trance. "Inuyasha, that was great. I mean really great." Inuyasha was on the verge of blushing. "Ok, but why did you want me to sing?" "Because there is a song that i like, and want to sing at the talent show, but in order to sing it, i need a guy partner. Can you please sing with me? Please!!!" Inuyasha wanted to say no, but he thought of how nice she had been, teaching him about Christmas. He had to pay her back somehow. "Sure," he replied. Kagome put her hands to his forehead. "Are you okay? Did you just agree to something without a fight? Wow, we are making progress. Here," she handed him another sheet of paper, "Your lines are on the right." So he read them over and they started practicing.
