'Ello everyone, and welcome back!!! In the last couple of chapters, I forgot to give the people the credit, so here it is: "I'm Just A Kid" by Simple Plan, and "Falling for the First Time" by Barenaked Ladies. I'll try not to forget anymore. Well, sorry to say, but this is probably going to be one of the last two chapters. I'm gonna miss it myself. Well, anyways, here ya go, my next, and very long, chappy of Accidentally In Love!

Accidentally In Love

Chapter 7

Sight

Sango PoV

"Hello, everyone. I'm Sesshomaru, and welcome to the Battle of the Bands. As most of you know, this is one of the greatest, and biggest, competitions in Japan." A tall guy, who was almost expressionless, stood on the stage, holding a mic. He, like Inuyasha, had silver hair, but his eyes were colder.

"Our first band performing in the pre-finals, is lead by Miroku on the lead guitar and lead vocals. The bassist is Kouga, and on the drum set is Sen. Introducing, 'Relative Cause.'"

"No, way..." I stood there, kin the audience, gaping at the people running onto stage.

"What?" asked Kagome.

"That's my old band, only without the drummer. I can't believe they're here!"

It's been one week since you looked at me
Cocked your head to the side and said "I'm angry"
Five days since you laughed at me saying
"Get that together come back and see me"
Three days since the living room
I realized it's all my fault, but couldn't tell you
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
but it'll still be two days till I say I'm sorry

Hold it now and watch the hoodwink
As I make you stop, think
You'll think you're looking at Aquaman
I summon fish to the dish, although I like the Chalet Swiss
I like the sushi
'cause it's never touched a frying pan
Hot like wasabe when I bust rhymes
Big like LeAnn Rimes
Because I'm all about value
Bert Kaempfert's got the mad hits
You try to match wits, you try to hold me but I bust through
Gonna make a break and take a fake
I'd like a stinkin achin shake
I like vanilla, it's the finest of the flavours
Gotta see the show, cause then you'll know
The vertigo is gonna grow
Cause it's so dangerous,
you'll have to sign a waiver

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Trying hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of taking off my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Threw your arms in the air
and said "You're crazy"
Five days since you tackled me
I've still got the rug burns on both my knees
It's been three days since the afternoon
You realized it's not my fault
not a moment too soon
Yesterday you'd forgiven me
And now I sit back and wait til you say you're sorry

Chickity China the Chinese chicken
You have a drumstick and your brain stops tickin'
Watchin' X-Files with no lights on
We're dans la maison
I hope the Smoking Man's in this one
Like Harrison Ford I'm getting frantic
Like Sting I'm tantric
Like Snickers, guaranteed to satisfy

Like Kurasawa I make mad films
Okay, I don't make films
But if I did they'd have a Samurai
Gonna get a set a' better clubs
Gonna find the kind with tiny nubs
Just so my irons aren't always flying off the back-swing
Gotta get in tune with Sailor Moon
'Cause the cartoon has got the boom anime babes
That make me think the wrong thing

How can I help it if I think you're funny when you're mad
Tryin' hard not to smile though I feel bad
I'm the kind of guy who laughs at a funeral
Can't understand what I mean?
Well, you soon will
I have a tendency to wear my mind on my sleeve
I have a history of losing my shirt

It's been one week since you looked at me
Dropped your arms to your sides
and said "I'm sorry"
Five days since I laughed at you and said
"You just did just what I thought you were gonna do"
Three days since the living room
We realized we're both to blame,
but what could we do?
Yesterday you just smiled at me
Cause it'll still be two days till we say we're sorry

It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
It'll still be two days till we say we're sorry
Birchmount Stadium, home of the Robbie

"That's your old band?!" Kagome said in amazement. "They're awesome! We must look stupid compared to them."

"No, not really. We're just as good. But, I don't want them knowing we're here until we get onto stage, kay?"

"Sure! I see you want it to be as surprise. Oh, and I'd have to agree with you."

"On what?"

"When you say Miroku is hot."

"Yea... wait! Promise me you'll stay away from his when I'm not around."

"Okay... but why?"

"Just 'cause. You'll find out when you meet him."

"Whatever."

We sat and watched the other bands for a little bit. Most of them were good, but I knew we could crush 'em all. About 2 hours after we had lunch, it was our turn onstage.

"Our next band is 'Unsurpassable Walls.' They asked to keep their names concealed, though." Sesshomaru exited the stage, as we came on. I saw Miroku, Kouga, and the new guy in the center of the crowd. Miroku's back was faced toward us. I saw Kouga gape at me, then poke Miroku, then point.

Miroku PoV

"Why are you poking me?" I asked Kouga as he looked wide eyed at the stage.

"Just look," he replied, pointing towards the people front and center of everyone.

I turned and looked, and beheld one of the most beautiful sites I've seen in a long time.

There, standing on stage, putting the guitar neck-strap on, was the love of my life, Sango. Not only was she getting ready to play with her new band, 'Unsurpassable Walls,' but she was staring at me. Then, when she made eye contact, she winked while plugging in the amp chord.

"This is for a certain somebody in the audience. You know who you are," the voice was soft and soothing, unlike the one I was about to get.

"Dude, I think she's talking about you!" said Kouga, shoving me slightly.

"No... she's talking about you," I replied sarcastically.

Then came a singing voice, it was enough to melt my heart.

Uh huh, life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh, that's the way it is
Cause life's like this
Uh huh, uh huh that's the way it is

Chill out whatcha yelling' for?
Lay back it's all been done before
And if you could only let it be
you will see
I like you the way you are
When we're drivin' in your car
and you're talking to me one on one but you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
You're watching your back like you can't relax
You're tryin' to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you
And you fall and you crawl and you break
and you take what you get and you turn it into honesty
and promise me I'm never gonna find you fake it
no no no

You come over unannounced
dressed up like you're somethin' else
where you are and where it's at you see
you're making me
laugh out when you strike your pose
take off all your preppy clothes
you know you're not fooling anyone
when you've become

Somebody else round everyone else
Watching your back, like you can't relax
Trying to be cool you look like a fool to me
Tell me

Why you have to go and make things so complicated?
I see the way you're acting like you're somebody else gets me frustrated
Life's like this you

"Wow, she's doing great!" I heard Kouga yell over the crowd of cheers.

"No kiddin'. I have to talk to her!" I yelled back, my voice barely carrying ½ meter because the cheers only got louder.

"That other girl's pretty hot, if you ask me," he said, after a few minutes, when the crowd finally died down.

"Hey, here they come!" I replied, pointing.

"Miroku!!" Sango yelled, coming towards me.

"Sango. Good to see ya again," I said, opening my arms for a hug. She seemed to slow sown, and think a little. Then, she ran into me, tackling me to the ground.

"Why didn't you call me?!" she yelled, sitting on top of me, hitting my chest a little.

"I forgot to pay the phone bill, so it disconnected. My e-mail account got bombarded by viruses, so I didn't even dare open it, and then snail-mail wouldn't even make it in time," I said, grabbing onto her ankles that were on either side of me.

"Whoa, what are you doing?" she asked, getting a shocked, nervous, look on her face.

"Nothing. Just trying to keep you here, with me."

"Shut up, and let me go so I can introduce you to the rest of my band."

"Okay, one more thing though."

"What?" She rolled her eyes, and sighed, waiting for an explanation.

Then I moved my hand from her ankle to her butt. I very well know what I was about to receive.

SLAP

"Ahh, the wonderfully, traditional feeling. Thank you honey."

I saw Sango's eye twitch, just a little. Suddenly, they narrowed into slits, and a voice dripping with venom, exited her mouth. "And when did I become 'honey'?" Her lips went into a slight smirk as she lightened up, and offered me a hand to help me off the floor.

"Miroku, this is Kagome and Inuyasha, members of my new band." Sango pointed towards a girl with blue-grey eyes, and dark hair, and a guy with silver hair accented by little doggie ears, and golden eyes.

"Kagome is it?" I asked as I approached the girl.

"Yes," she giggled back.

"Can I ask you something?"

"You already did." She accented with a wink.

"Yeah, I guess I did. But my original question would actually be, will you go out with me?"

Not only did I get beaten to a pulp by Sango, but also by Inuyasha. Though, Sango threw the first blow, before I even finished the last to words. Inuyasha, in a daze, hesitated slightly, then be the crap out of me. Kagome, having been taught how to defend herself from perverts, immediately lifted her foot to kick, but luckily, I noticed, and grabbed it before it could contact the selected target.

"Please, stop. I have to maintain my image for stage!" I yelled. Only then did they stop. "Wow, I thought you'd hit harder when I said that."

"Well, I guess we are in a public place, and I realize that you wish to remain bruiseless for the crowd. Plus, I've found it easier to sing without a few cracked ribs," Sango replied, rubbing her hands together, with a grin spread across her face.

"Thank you for acknowledging my need to stay beautiful," I said, same grin upon my face.

I looked at Inuyasha, though he'd stopped, he was still glaring at me, and I'm sure, imagining me getting hit by hundreds of daggers. He had stepped closer to Kagome, as if guarding her from certain people, like myself.

"Keh." That was all I heard him say.

"Alright. That was the last band entered. We will have an hour break, while the judges decide who goes on, and who goes home," Sesshomaru said from the stage. "Do whatever, go wherever, just be back then to find out." He then went back off stage.

"So, what do you guys want to do?" Kouga asked.

"Go get food. I'm starving," Kaogme said, putting a hand to her stomach.

"Same," Sango agreed, also putting her hand to her stomach, as if it was an automatic reaction.

"I'm not to hungry though," said Kouga.

"If that's what the ladies want to do, that's what we're gonna do," I said, stepping beside Sango, as we filed out the doors.

"You haven't changed a git, have you?" she whispered.

"Not really. Though, not having you around anymore at school has effected my flirting with female classmates. I guess being with you, and suddenly not puts me into a weird whacked mode."

"Really?" Her eyes widened with what looked like, though I could be mistaken, joy. She quickly recovered by saying, "But you got along so well without me before we met."

I acted like I didn't notice. "Yea, well, that was then. Enough about me, what are you up to?"

"Nothin' much. Just hanging with the band, having fun. I'm just glad it's summer vacation. The first semester seemed to drag on forever."

"No kidding. It's ust not the same not having you beat me at every flirtatious thing I do." And to emphasize, I reached and grabbed her by the waist, pulling her closer. She seemed to enjoy it for just a second, but then she same to her senses.

"I don't find it flirtatious, I find it perverted, and annoying. Now, let me go," she said with a slight shove with her elbow in my sore ribcage.

"Okay," I replied, dragging my hand, slowly, a little lower than she liked, because I ended up getting slapped.

"You should know the boundaries by now," Sango said as we approached my van. I guess that they decided we could all fit inside.

As we filed in, me driving, Sango in the passenger seat, Kagome in the middle of Inuyasha and Kouga, and Sen in the very back, I asked where people wanted to go.

"Dairy Queen. I know they're expensive, but I really want an American burger and a Brownie Batter Blizzard," Sango said, licking her lips.

"Yeah, except, I want a cookie dough Blizzard," piped Kagome, through the arms throwing punches in front of her. "Okay, I'm really flattered you two are fighting over me, but, please, this is just childish!" Kagome, usually sweet and innocent, looked dark and evil.

"Whoa..." I gaped. "What was that all about."

"Kouga, here, is having a battle over Kagome's affection with Inuyasha. I guess he, Kouga, has decided Kagome would be a very good person to have as a partner in a dating relationship. Inuyasha, however, will not let that happen, as though he thinks Kagome is his, even if he has not enough courage to ask her out," Sen said, looking as though he always talks.

"Dude, I thought you were, like, a mute or something," I said, astonished as everyone.

"No kiddin'. I think that is the longest thing I've ever heard you say," replied Kouga.

"What? I observe a lot, and get to know a lot of what everyone else is doing." Sen shrugged, snapping us out of our daze.

I turned the key, and started the engine. We then headed off towards the nearest Dairy Queen. When we got there, I payed for both Sango and myself. Inuyasha and Kouga almost got in a fist fight over who was going to pay for Kagome, if she wouldn't have stepped in between them.

"Kouga, I just met you. I can't possibly accept you paying for me. Inuyasha, what's gotten into you? You don't go fighting over me, for me maybe, but not over me. Plus, I have money, I can pay for it, if you two are going to be so stupid about it," she said, looking sternly at Inuyasha and Kouga. They, knowing not to argue with her, stepped back, and then started fighting over who was first. Kagome just rolled her eyes, and stepped forward to ordre.

When we finally ordered, and recieved our food, we sat down at a table, and pulled forward a few more chairs. Because Kagome was in the center of one side, there was no arguement of who sat next to her. I, of course, got to sit next to Sango. We were able to talk because Kouga and Inuyasha were too engrossed in fighting with each other, and Kagome was just trying to get them to stop, Sen, as usual, just sat there in la-la-land, while observing Kouga, Inuyasha, and Kagome.

"I see your band has gotten back together quickly after I left," said Sango, staring into my eyes, as if to find out the deep secrets of them.

"Yea, it was surprising how fast it happened. But you... you got a whole new band together pretty fast. I was just wondering, did you teach them, or did they already know?"

"They knew nothing about playing. Though, Kagome did have piano lessons when she was younger," she replied, her cheeks reddening a little.

"I thought so. It sounded like your style of playing." I scooted a little closer, but made it unnoticable. "I always liked your style, it was unique, kinda different."

"Well, thanks. It makes me feel that much better about myself. I've always wanted to be kinda different," she said sarcastically, acting flattered.

"Ha, ha, very funny. But it's true. You're totally unique. I've never known someone like you. You have this great, whacky, but don't-mess-with-me attitude. Plus, you're one of the most beautiful girls I've ever seen."

"Right, that's why you'd flirt with girls when I was standing behind you."

"I was naive, plus, I didn't think you were the one who'd like to be flirted with, then dropped like a rock. I didn't want to hurt you like that."

"Oh, but it's just fine to hurt me by ignoring me."

"It's not like that..." I started to say, but she cut me off.

"Really, then what was it like?"

"You were different, I really liked you. I just couldn't bring myself to show you. Plus, I thought you deserved better."

"So, insead you acted like I was a friend, and even acted like I wasn't there when you were with other girls. I've gotta go, see ya guys later." She then grabbed her food, and left, walking down the street.

"Man, you ust messed that up. Maybe you should've considered her feelings before now," Kouga said.

"I guess we drew attention to ourselves," I replied. "You're probably right, but how was I supposed to know then if she didn't tell me."

"Sounds familiar, doesn't it. Maybe if you'd have showed her, she would have returned them. It's a web of tangled secrets and deciet. Fire without oxegen cannot live," said Sen from the corner.

"Wow, that's deep," piped the amazed Kagome.

"Again, the words of the wise comes from the silent one," replied Kouga. "you should tell her, or there's no chance."

"I can't..."

"Yes, you can. She's my best friend, and I'm positive that if she doesn't hear it from you, she'll go in a life of emptyness. I can't live with that, so I'm making you do it. If you don't who knows what'll happen to you. You might live in lonelyness for the rest of your life." Kagome looked as if she felt sorry for me. I didn't have to answer to her, because she knew it already. If I didn't do something quick, I'd have no chance.

"Alright, I'll try."

Okay, sorry it took me so long to get this finished and posted... I'm going through a really busy time right now. Plus, we got a new computer, and this was saved on my old one. Luckily, my dad kept it, so I just plugged it in (after much trouble of getting cables) and saved it to a 3 1/2. I go to stick in the 3 1/2, and there isn't one. So I had to get on my other comp., and save it all to a disk, then get on this comp and load it in. I was so frustrated and mad at my dad for not telling me before-hand. Oh well, at least it's up now, and I can finish this story. This is the 2nd to last chapter, I swear... or at least I think it will be. It's one of the longest... on paper it was 20 pages long. Hope you enjoyed!!! Ja ne!
